9. Our Holiday. [Accidental Audio]
[Silence for a few moments, a little bit of tinkering heard.]
...It's been over two years, if I've got this right. Two years since I should've died and two years since I came here. You guys really don't blame me for not fighting, do you? Doesn't seem very fair, that I'm here, decorating a small hospital, and all of you are...
...I still miss you all. Even though I didn't know some of you for very long, it felt like we knew each other for years. Hearing everyone celebrating right now just reminds me of how much you should be home, with your families, alive.
So many things I won't know. Ushiro, you finished your fight, right? You won, didn't you? You don't seem the kind of guy to lose at the last moment, not with everything riding on you. You were able to get it all finished, weren't you? And...brother, you found a replacement for me, I hope. You continued your job and got someone to teach the next world how to fight, didn't you? And you're home with mom and dad now. Please tell me y-you're home with mom and dad. By now our world should be...cl-cleaned up, after all.
...I'm...just talking to myself. But deep down I like to hope...you can all hear me. If I close my eyes, you're all standing there, waiting for me to join you. But I won't join you just yet. Wherever you're all waiting for me...I'll see you again, much later, when I'm older. When I get there, we can all talk about the most amazing things. ...O-or you can blame me. F-for what I rightly deserve. ...B-but deep down, I hope...that you're all missing me too.
...
Merry Christmas, everyone... Hope the afterlife is treating you well...
