It was night.

“…Looks like she’s at her limit.”

Alice said, and Ai, who had been slumped over, looked up.

The alleyway was a little different again.

The ground had been swept clean, and a carpet had been laid out before they knew it. There was a bonfire burning, and many surrounded Nein. They were divided into two groups, the cunning ones and the innocent ones. Some managed the crowd, some set up stalls for business, and some spread fraudulent rumors in an attempt to make a quick buck. No matter where they were, no matter what happened, humans were always human, and Ai was somewhat relieved.

“Come on! Next! Step forward!”

Nein shouted.

It seemed that her power was truly bottomless, and she had been reviving the Dead since morning without fading at all.

“What’s wrong? Next, next!”

But the young body that controlled that power appeared to be unable to keep up, for the blood was drained from her cheeks, making her look so weak and frail that she might faint. It was no wonder, for she had not eaten anything since morning, and had been saving the world till this moment. Her entourage started to chatter. A few minutes ago, the cunning faction and the fastidious faction were duking it out, but it appeared then that they had come to a consensus.

“Miss Ai, Mr. Alice.”

One of the innocents, a woman, appeared to recognize them as she went over to them, bowing,

Alice answered.

“…What?”

“We think the Saint should conclude her holy work for the day.”

“Heh.”

A sarcastic sneer.

“That’s for you to decide?”

“…Mr Alice.”

“Got it got it. I’m not looking for trouble. So, what do you want from us?”

“…We’d like you to take care of the Saint in your house.”

“Hmm, now I’ll have to ask why. You’re not asking to bring her back to your own place?”

Before the woman could reply, a man appeared.

“This won’t do.”

It was the leader of the Cunning Faction.

“Leaving the Saint to such idiots? What a joke. What if they brainwash her?”

“…That’s what I’m talking about.”

“I see.”

In other words, the two forces just would not back off, and decided to leave her to a third party.

“In other words, you guys want some time to keep fighting? —What about you, Ai?”

Alice asked. But Ai did not want to answer. She felt that the moment she answered, she would be complicit in their dirty scheme.

So she decided to do the dirty work herself.

She left the wall and went to Nein, who was being persuaded by her entourage.

“Miss Nein.”

“Ah! Ai, listen to me. They’re telling me to take a break!”

Her lips were tired and pale, and her cheeks were devoid of color.

“I don’t have time for this! I’m trying to save the world!”

“That’s right.”

“Yes!”

“….But there doesn’t seem to be anyone new here, right?”

Ai pointed to the entrance of the alley. There was no one there anymore.

“Really ….”

“See?”

It was a lie. The truth was that the entourage had purged the line and concealed the fact.

However, young Nein did not seem to have the notion of ‘being deceived by people’, that it was a terrible lie by these adults, and she dropped her shoulders.
