第四話 再見31Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEHuB4Q9vUS
31Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZKD7YQrvHS
街道上，男主緊張地帶著米迦勒走在城鎮裡。31Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡH8koLY19Mu
「請問要去哪裡呢？」米迦勒輕聲問著。31Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsSAKql3cKc
她注意到男主穿上西裝、打了領帶。這副打扮在街上格外醒目。31Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaVFsBSvsgw
「我……我預定了一間餐廳。」31Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3cRaumu7ng
「希望你會喜歡……」他語氣緊張，步伐也微微僵硬。31Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡm8PtiRBzsW
31Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwb6qa0CQmo
餐廳門口。31Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSGDYtrLPX6
「不好意思，這邊未成年人不能進入……」服務生禮貌地說。31Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJssgOkOcuO
「我……我成年了！」他急切地喊道。31Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡV2amek5AYM
我明明是15歲的男人，卻因為身高，看起來像12、13歲的孩子。31Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSIL5ZWt8TY
（米迦勒是不是也把我當小孩子啊……）他偷偷地瞥了一眼身旁的米迦勒。31Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡi1UwjDXN2J
31Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡP8T0iQPeel
「美麗的小姐，妳一個人嗎？」一名男人靠近，嘗試邀請米迦勒共進晚餐。31Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgeOnS2pOP6
（被搭訕了！）我愣愣地看著她。31Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlTFMujVtHS
「不好意思，我跟弟弟一起來的。」米迦勒禮貌地回絕。31Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbItqsl9cvz
（對了，我們的設定是姐弟……！）我這才猛然想起。31Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡu8ti8skBwE
年齡上來看，確實……是姐弟嗎？31Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0kOAVR0Ba3
31Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyDuF8Zb0PP
米迦勒的年紀恐怕早就破百……甚至是千了吧。31Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhcrBe7Yj6g
（米迦勒是不是從來沒把我當作一個男人……）31Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoMmruKmCe7
我垂下頭，感到一陣失落。31Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡomLJQ6JrZW
「確實，我身高像個小學生，連這件西裝也是特地拿去改短的……」31Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPxQ8Tjy0HN
我喃喃自語著。31Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ58zqcrkfor
「方便的話，請出示一下您的證件……」31Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrkzyjFwtTj
一旁的服務生語氣尷尬地說著。31Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1P2xtU9BQQ
---31Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡR8OsN1rHVb
「我們開動吧！」服務員端上色香味俱全的高級餐點。31Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlO3bD3VeLQ
我帶著一絲期待看向米迦勒。31Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIXjFBkXPxq
「不，緋夜大人，我記得我說過，天使不用吃東西也沒關係。」31Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFcQSQdP8iD
「緋夜大人吃就可以了。」31Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkZJFSf6Spf
她微笑著說。31Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuxdWzAXkue
31Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡywqlkYZK50
「可是……可是！」我焦急地說著。31Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgETewdDcHg
31Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsMsh2vwhky
「而且這看起來是在人類世界相當高級的食物呢……」31Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8jI9EFAyrl
她望著眼前的料理，若有所思。31Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡU1jgs7cIWB
「憑緋夜大人的財力，有點困難吧……」31Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlR2hA0h5vC
31Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡR61n4u0FyE
「您該不會去借高利貸！」31Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡS1fe6qWhTd
「我才沒有啦！」31Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmkHjnlQvvs
31Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcDXC3Tlosq
「我還是有點積蓄的……」當冒險者也五年了。31Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡadELi1Gchg
「所以想帶米迦勒一起來吃點好吃的東西……」我低聲說著。31Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5ErWNFx89w
（但怎麼跟我想像中的反應完全不一樣。）31Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡO5yGlfttUK
果然，還是把我當成要照顧的弟弟吧！31Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpCwvt2Wntn
31Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmr0OlDDN1n
米迦勒看著我緊張的模樣，腦中靈光一閃。31Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNZ25CkoKnG
（對了，要讓緋夜大人建立自信才行！）她想通了。31Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKzj2a7jktv
「我知道了，那我就不客氣了，緋夜大人。」31Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAsKjCMAZDw
她拿起叉子說著。31Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrz3smo8H5k
「嗯……嗯！」我高興地回應。31Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSLmosynQe4
31Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGW6NgPtaEA
---31Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQtH8lL2WdT
吃完後，我們走出餐廳。31Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBI5IrF1wk0
「我們再來去買衣服吧！」我開心地提議。31Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbbnVAlE81F
「給米迦勒穿的！」31Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBKKtud8opi
我走在前方，米迦勒則靜靜地跟在我身後。31Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyEbUUbs07q
31Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWH2HcaHr29
（天使不能將人間的東西帶回天界……）31Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8mv5JvQTmH
米迦勒望著我興奮的背影。31Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxg8mofb5qd
（但如果現在說出口，他可能又會陷入低潮……）她一邊思考。31Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFLcn47E6y4
（總之，今天就照著緋夜大人想做的事去完成吧。）31Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4c4ttAnYmO
這一切，都是為了幫他重建信心。31Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3uB31bopUY
31Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBkhNmpT1Gq
在服裝店裡試穿了各式各樣的衣服，最後選了一件白色的洋裝。31Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQ4C9oCWUF6
接著去看了一場表演，也逛了許多熱鬧的攤販。31Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡI9PhmCD7rq
還趕走很多來搭訕米迦勒的人。31Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0VSLmPDDBk
31Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpgHXG2kATR
太陽漸漸落下，傍晚的光線灑在兩人身上。31Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqyIfIOXudE
31Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1X1oMP3gHH
---31Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ74Oa0qqMxj
最後，我們來到了山頂的展望台，這裡能俯瞰整座小鎮的燈火。31Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡL4I3Djp7Nd
「那個……」我緊張地開口。31Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWvujRmxecT
「米迦勒，今天開心嗎？」31Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVEpR8stkrP
我轉頭望向她。31Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡT76sDZGzyI
31Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRrbsZGb6w9
她也轉頭看著我。31Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWDNXe4Nr33
「嗯，謝謝你，緋夜大人。」31Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmhaCKMZZxE
「我很開心。」米迦勒笑著說。31Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBKbY8XZtmT
今天，對了解人類現在的文化是個不錯的一天——她心中這樣想著。31Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfE3vGveVCF
31Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡasvFpGkVWB
（看來我之前太專注在了解魔界製造的魔物強度了……）31Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmRpAQdW39c
她轉頭望向閃爍的小鎮燈光。31Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWcHPssVtQa
（人類……是需要這種放鬆與釋放壓力的生物……）31Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVPRM27P3Z9
米迦勒默默地想著。31Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡijBS3H2214
31Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXPNnVGWH0o
人類是神所創造、擁有最多情感的存在，可以說是最複雜、最多樣、也是……最脆弱的生物。31Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4JRbUzDiQ4
大多數人類很容易受到魔界的影響，尤其是那些擁有權力與財富的領導者。31Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYo9rgzdFvO
結果往往導向人類毀滅的結局。31Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDKdfkNy5S7
31Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJxn2FQXGyF
（天使不能直接干涉人類世界……）31Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMmmmVHcllL
人類的命運，只能由他們自己決定。31Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡig2FI3rN8s
（我所能做的……）31Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxUo372Zegi
她看向男主的背影。31Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKqfEZ4HUki
（就只有回應他的召喚，在他需要的時候幫助他……）31Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOj8x29aauY
31Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2U1TxKqTkd
一旦他變強，就不再需要我了——這就是召喚魔法的真諦，只會回應「弱者」的呼喚。31Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvoi12NTqVS
31Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCx1Tx6eIB0
「有機會再這樣一起逛逛人類世界吧。」31Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡT2uWr9WWlW
米迦勒微笑著說。31Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKZeqpOb4B7
31Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOxdh10mvHB
我低下頭。31Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡr3nyTOdb6m
「米迦勒……」我開口說。31Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFlJChcH8lY
「其實今天邀妳約會，是因為……」31Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQt1DhybV6G
我握緊拳頭。31Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBFBuJ9bVho
（我已經下定決心了……沒錯……）31Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgy9cTsP6Hu
我在心裡默念。31Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqpI3d7VC5J
31Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡM50K02UdHu
「我不會再召喚你了。」31Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1nPtPH1dEv
我終於說出口。31Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyQc98p6j14
31Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUZgupt1WCU
米迦勒愣在原地，看著我。31Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbyftK2GWdL
「這是……為什麼？」31Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYFviXYQ50N
她的聲音微微顫抖。31Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡx0sFzZFZ6s
31Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpls3eHTuqf
「因為，我太弱了。」我說。31Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhzhd0Eb18Z
「如果我死了，米迦勒就會無法回到天界！」31Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡayKeXClP2s
「我不想讓那種事發生，所以……」31Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5A7j7p7KuL
這樣，對我們兩個都比較好。31Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ64jt6abj8u
31Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDXVCj4rKST
米迦勒是透過我，才能來到這個世界的。31Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡX15m09RNwo
如果因為我，讓她永遠無法回去……31Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHYkiYAg4OG
我不願意……我不要！31Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLjhSNpZBuV
31Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmdia0t4uNK
米迦勒凝視著我，緩緩開口。31Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpjIfEZJ9ym
「不用擔心，緋夜大人。」31Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAKs0dM7lwP
「這是我自己的選擇，就算發生了，也不是您的錯。」31Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7ToKr8g5Uh
「是我沒有『保護』好您。」31Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPYPcpRUsMK
她說完，靜靜望著我。31Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡABqXsY5Wo0
31Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡO7CP2lL6y2
「我不要你的『保護』。」31Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMePyvMKvvw
她的瞳孔微微顫動，凝視著我。31Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkblLFrx05B
31Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoK2bT0iGl3
「我也想變強啊！」31Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡy7HPyW4x11
我忍不住激動地喊了出來。31Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ96irwxrLkb
「我也想自己打倒魔物啊！自己生活！自己賺錢！」31Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUUnO5KBfKe
「我明明這麼努力！」孤身一人成為冒險者。31Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUWpvRRAyHC
「結果卻完全沒有變強！」永遠的E級。31Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡh030wtc9c8
「所以我想要一個夥伴，可是……」31Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQKf0kAdtZC
31Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSNsMCApKOm
「你太強了。」31Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡk96JkujC6h
我看向米迦勒，她震驚地看著我。31Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbzcIW68BcE
31Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiECqpWSy6j
我一開始，根本不是想召喚天使。31Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhcHkq5TNiM
我只是想要一隻能陪我戰鬥的幻獸。31Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDNIP50QdcQ
當「米迦勒」出現在我房間時，我完全震驚了。31Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVH7Uc7i0bE
她是人類的模樣，會說話，能戰鬥，還能成為冒險者，人人都喜歡她。31Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1YXwgzpFWm
但是……31Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ95PVSa2OFj
31Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡa05MrP2tUR
「這樣根本就不是夥伴……」31Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMSUEuNFCjz
在米迦勒眼裡，我永遠只是被保護的對象。31Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNJb61ejcl4
在她身邊，我永遠只是個累贅、拖油瓶。31Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpRGQSiy0KH
我們注定不是同等的存在，是最弱的我，與最強的她。31Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUdZOXpKnr4
31Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDZHnxYmWBO
「我今天帶妳逛城鎮，就是為了跟妳道別。」31Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJS2zsxUMj9
畢竟天使已經三百年沒來人類世界了。31Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ69FmkfxZSd
「希望未來，會有其他人召喚妳。」31Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6hp8H8bDP6
這樣我也不會留下遺憾了。31Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvm4aE7scSZ
31Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJ0YebP3biG
（我還有要做的事，我得找到我的父母，所以……）31Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGSpZ2zGZ6R
（我必須自己變強才行。）31Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWztj38MHzi
我抬起手，雙手合十。31Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6UPwXVZepd
31Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhBwsAnN0Z5
「等等，緋夜大人！」31Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpo51fTPgiw
米迦勒焦急地伸出手，想說什麼。31Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkXE9MZJ4bG
31Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJax0QFvAq7
「再見了，米迦勒。」我低聲說。31Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbXibPnRLMC
「能與妳相遇，我真的很開心。」31Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmTsrbFpbfn
我關閉了，與『大天使米迦勒』之間的召喚通道。31Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhk7mKl6vjY
31Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡr6s8slLqJq
米迦勒的身影在我面前消失，只留下她身上那件純白的洋裝。31Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeHeyCiyVGm
31Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡv43xA7kkL5
我站在原地。31Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡymkvxfGS0F
「喵！」焦糖從我的衣服裡鑽了出來，31Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgYwZwGIMSc
牠那三條尾巴，在夜色中閃著微光。31Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeXDbpLiLrH
「焦糖……」我歪腰撿起地上的洋裝。31Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡX96m58cQGl
「如果下一個召喚物……能是你的同類就好了。」31Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzP7YiXeCpy
我手中拿著那件洋裝，望向寧靜夜色下的小鎮。
