After witnessing Maxfern’s declaration of war, Koutarou’s concerns grew deeper and more difficult. As expected, Ralgwin’s capture meant Maxfern’s resurrection. Moreover, Maxfern wanted to conquer Forthorthe, so the empire would once again be plunged into war.

Could this have been avoided if I had abandoned Fasta-san? But would that have been the right thing to do? Wouldn’t it go against Her Majesty Alaia’s ideals? But...at least it would have prevented people from losing their lives in battle. Just as she hesitated to raise an army, maybe I should have accepted Fasta-san’s death? No, that’s...

War would start again, and Koutarou should have been able to prevent it. If he had let Fasta die and kept Ralgwin, this wouldn’t have happened. However, that was not what he had done. It would be more accurate to say that he hadn’t been able to make a decision, which was why he couldn’t stop Ralgwin. And the people of Forthorthe would pay the price. Because of his decision, war would break out. Ralgwin and many citizens would lose their lives. But what sin had Fasta committed? Would letting her die really have led to peace and prosperity? At least it would have prevented a war...

Koutarou’s thoughts were running in circles.

“It’s not your fault, Koutarou. It’s that magical uncle’s fault for pushing the choice onto you!! And the war too,” Sanae-chan said in anger, putting her hands on her hips. She wasn’t angry with Koutarou, but rather the methods the enemy had used.

“Veltlion understands that too. But he is the Blue Knight, so...” Clan could understand what troubled him. During their journeys two thousand years ago, she had come to understand what Koutarou treasured.

“He is trying to protect everything that Empress Alaia wanted to protect. But doing that brings about another problem,” Theia noted. She was well-versed in the legend of the Blue Knight and had also spent a lot of time with Koutarou. Like Clan, she understood how he felt. Koutarou had continuously fought in order to keep from betraying what he shouldn’t betray.

“It is impossible to protect everything. As we are humans, we will eventually hit our limit. But Satomi Koutarou does not settle for that,” Kiriha explained.

“Satomi-san can’t compromise between Satomi-san himself and his hero self,” Yurika added sympathetically.

Koutarou acknowledged that he was a normal person. Yet he was trying to live as a hero and carry the responsibilities that entailed. He felt that it was his duty to live this way after bringing war to so many people. However, there was a gap between a normal person and a hero. He had his limits as a person, and there were lives he couldn’t protect. Situations that made Koutarou choose who would die would always trouble him. He constantly asked himself if he had been wrong, if there hadn’t been a better way, was there really nothing he could do. He couldn’t be pragmatic about it. It was an ideal quality for a hero but also a cross to bear. All of the girls wondered whether he would be able to carry it.
