We can't go on calling the Sion replica a replica, so Saiyukiness named him
Alex. We left Alex with Maestro Tritheim, and headed for the Radiation
Gate to stop the Planet Storm.
As we approached the Radiation Gate, we were shot at by Eldrant, perhaps
to prevent us from stopping the Planet Storm. Noelle dodged the fire and
managed to land us safely at the Radiation Gate. Okay, let's head for the
bottom.
Just as I closed the Radiation Gate, Lahari flew down and attacked us. With
the advancing neural contamination, he barely seemed to have any sanity left
at all, but he still said nothing but "the Score, the Score!" It was too
horrible to watch... Since he won't last long anyway, we decided to end
things for him.
Lahari may have thought differently than we did, but in his own way he was
trying to save the world.
That made me afraid...afraid that we were, like Lahari, following the wrong
path.
To be honest, thinking about saving the world or anything like that is
probably way overdone. Even without doing anything like that, people will
probably manage somehow or other. But I want to live as long as I can. Even
more so, now that I know that I don't have much longer.
We've taken care of stopping the Planet Storm, so Eldrant has lost its
armor. Now we just need to do something about its anti-aircraft fire. At
emrls' suggestion, we decided to head for the Grand Chokmah military
headquarters.
According to Chief of Staff Sesemann, the Kimlasca and Malkuth forces have
already begun preparations for deployment. We were also able to confirm the
interval between Eldrant's cannons firing. Now we just need to complete the
Key of Sol and proceed inside Eldrant. The joint military force is based
in Konoha, so let's head there.
Jeremy was waiting near the entrance to Grand Chokmah. He held out his hand
to me, so I offered him the Jewel of Sol. After all, he's the original,
the one whose power is stable. But he didn't seem to like that, getting angry
at me "putting myself down." I know I used to be like that...no, maybe I
still am to a degree. But as a simple issue of ability, I thought that Jeremy
was more appropriate for the job than me. I don't think any less of myself
for that fact.
I'm me. I've finally realized that, after learning that I'm going to
disappear.
I'd always wanted someone to approve of me, to accept me, but that wasn't
what was really important.
Jeremy, please understand.
Jeremy said we should fight to determine who's Master Kyo's real student. If
that's what he needs, then I suppose I'll have no choice but to fight him.
I'll probably end up fighting Jeremy on Eldrant. Right now, we need to
prepare ourselves for going to Eldrant. Let's head to Konoha and arrange
things with the military.
