The frontier alchemist ~ I can’t go back to that job after you made my budget zero – Chapter 439 – On the edge of a world of possibilities

I see Roa’s wounded heart inside my consciousness, and it’s painful to look at.

Everywhere I look it’s gouged, and its edges are very sharp. It’s like a jewel.

It feels like one could hurt themselves all over by just carelessly touching it. But its color is very deep, like lapis lazuli.

And above all else, there is a striking beauty hidden inside it.

Ah… Is this the original color of Roa’s eyes?

Suddenly, when I look at this blue color, I understand.

It makes me feel like sharing this pain, even if just a little, and before I know it I’m stretching my arms.

And then, I simply hug her.

Strangely enough, that sharpness loses its edge in my arms. It feels like ice being melted.

I feel it hesitantly moving closer, like it’s unsure of how much I will accept.

But that tranquility only lasts for a moment.

Much like Kalin’s, Roa’s 『feelings』and『memories』 become one, and crumble in my arms.

I feel the weight of Roa’s body on my arms, and a new band of golden light is added to Rose.

Aroma Vine’s vines gently wrap around the unconscious Roa.

“Thank you for kindly accepting Roa, Master Rust.”

Ahri says while stroking Roa’s head, and looking at her sister with a doting look on her face.

All I can do is aggressively shake my head.

But I end up noticing it anyway.

“Ahri! Did you decide to go last because…”

“Fufu. Of course you would notice, Master Rust. You do in every possible future.”

“It’s not enough, is it!? Then my feelings and memories will…!”

“No, Master Rust. You need to be at your best, or you will fail to eradicate Araysla.”

Ahri holds her spear with her right hand and points it at her neck.

“I’m sorry Rust, I love you.”
