"______" The oppressive, suffocating gloom seemed like the culmination of everything evil in this world, and it enveloped his entire body, refusing to let him go. His face, his torso, his limbs—every bit of skin was stained by inky darkness. He could feel it seeping into his blood like it was desperate to slake a terrible thirst. Before long, he could no longer tell where his body ended and the darkness began. And it wasn't only his external form that became uncertain. "______" The confusion went deeper, touching upon his true nature. Perhaps even touching his soul. After losing sight of the essence of what made him him and aimlessly wandering for so long, he finally had a small fragment of it at his fingertips. That was what it felt like. This fragment was vague, and the unease and hatred welling inside made him hesitant to bring it closer. "______" Was this the version of himself that he had been searching for? Would this be the beginning of a completely different self? It was a bizarre thought, but not an impossible one. He had already experienced things just as shocking and unimaginable. How much time had he wasted simply coming to terms with what was really happening and accepting the trials set before him? How long had it taken him to actively seek out what lay beyond all that? The answers to those questions were why he was deeply uneasy. Was this the right choice? Was this the right place? Was this the person he wanted to be? The one who was trusted, forgiven, and accepted? "—I love you." His indescribable worries melted away as that guiding voice faded. Toward the white, bright, high, noble, beautiful, sweet light... That soul, Subaru Natsuki... 2 Subaru's consciousness slowly emerged from the abyss of a deep, gentle sleep. "Ah..." A faint first gasp slipped from his lips. It was terribly hoarse and lifeless, but it was unmistakably his own voice. If nothing else, he was sure that he had not been reborn as some voiceless single-celled organism. That had to count as one step forward. The next step would be making sure he wasn't a being with some completely different set of values that— "Subaru? Are you awake?" "______" A sweet, silvery voice rang in his ears. Clear and gentle, soothing yet steadfast, cheerful and charming. Just moments ago, he had heard that same voice in the worst possible circumstances. Hearing it again made his heart leap. His chest ached, and his heart raced as he slowly looked over. "______" Waiting there were violet eyes filled with concern. "...Emilia...?" "Yes. Are you all right, Subaru? Can you sit up? Can you talk?" "Uhhh..." As he weakly said her name, the girl with purple eyes tilted her head. Her expression relaxed into a small smile, and the long, silver hair flowing down her alabaster shoulders looked like moonbeams. This dazzling display of beauty struck Subaru right in the heart. —A girl who was completely out of this world had descended before him. "Ugh...ah..." The moment that thought crossed his mind, blood raced to his cheeks. His face was bright red, his eyes swam, and words failed him. The pounding in his ears was so loud it almost hurt. At last, he started babbling incoherently. "Awawawawa..." "Awawa...?" When she saw how shaken he was, Emilia furrowed her beautiful brow. Even that tiny gesture was mind-blowing. It almost felt like the greatest artist of the era was showing him a second masterpiece. And he was observing it up close—so close, he could feel her breath. Despite how much his chest already hurt, his heart rate just seemed to climb higher and higher. "______" What is this? What's happening? Is any of this real? Or is it just a crazy, convincing illusion? Like, when you see a mirage in the desert, it's always an oasis... That's just seeing what you want most in that moment,”

If that's the rule, then is this also a mirage? What an extravagant— "A-are you all right, Subaru? I think there might be something wrong. You did take a tumble." "Hyah!" "See, you just made a weird sound!"”
