It wasn’t just food preferences. Morning and Evening Liella, of course, acted completely differently toward me.

“Hey, hey, bestie! Hey! Yaaay!”

Now, it was Evening Liella who said nonsense like that. And as she did, she raised both arms on the back of my broom and assumed the high-five position, leading me to wonder dubiously exactly what celebration-worthy thing might have happened. But—

“Oh, nothing worth celebrating really happened, or anything. I just felt like a high five. Yaaay!”

Smack!

Evening Liella forced my hand into the air and slapped it for a high five.

Physically and mentally, she’s dizzyingly forward…

I don’t love it…

“By the way, bestie, listen, how much do you want for your reward?”

“Huh…? I mean, I’m fine with the amount that you originally posted, but…”

“Hey, hey, what’re you doing acting so selfless? You’re helping me make it home, so I figure I can splurge a little.”

“‘Splurge’…?”

“How much did you say the reward was?”

Let’s see, how much was it again?

I pulled the scrap of paper from my pocket and glanced at it to check.

“This much.”

One gold piece. A fairly extravagant amount, given that it’s a reward for three days of assistance.

“Well, I’ll give you double that.”

“It seems like you and I will get along just fine.”

And so on.

For the most part, Evening Liella and I spent most of our time together sitting one behind the other on my broom, engaging in this sort of silly conversation.

However, in contrast, Morning Liella wouldn’t even get on the broom to begin with.

“Since we’re making a special trip, let’s get some merchants to give us a ride, Elaina.”

The Ruins of Voght might have been off the beaten track, but that didn’t mean that we never saw any settlements or traveling merchants along the road to get there. Morning Liella apparently liked to be tossed around with the merchants’ cargo. So the two of us basically traveled by wagon, and switched to walking whenever it seemed like we were straying from the road to the Ruins of Voght.

“You won’t ride the broom?” I asked her.

She nodded and answered, “I like walking better.”

Morning Liella and I maintained more physical and emotional distance. Though that had something to do with the fact that Evening Liella did strange things like yelling “yay!” and stuff at ridiculously close range.

Although that didn’t mean that Morning Liella never talked at all.

As the two of us were walking along, she reminisced about all sorts of things. She even told me extremely candidly about the start of her relationship with the cursed sword—with Evening Liella.

After prefacing it with a disclaimer that her story was not really anything special, she told me, “Two years ago, my job wasn’t going well, I had become alienated from my friends, I was on bad terms with my family, and lots of little unpleasantries like that were piling up. Around that time, I started to just get sick of everything.”

“Mm.”

“While I was going through all that, I just so happened to stop by an antique shop, and, she—this sword was sitting there.”

Liella touched her sword as she spoke.
