第四話 再見51Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8D6dHmnDyf
51Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqfD7l1pcrN
街道上，男主緊張地帶著米迦勒走在城鎮裡。51Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKOCYSBm2bx
「請問要去哪裡呢？」米迦勒輕聲問著。51Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeIKaevhcDs
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。51Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvsaCZ1gnKz
「我……我預定了一間餐廳。」51Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgeqtQW8S7C
「希望你會喜歡……」他語氣緊張，步伐也微微僵硬。51Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYZiOrkohyq
51Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTRzj0AnMVE
餐廳門口。51Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡA5ipKN1s1e
「不好意思，這邊未成年人不能進入……」服務生禮貌地說。51Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7oS9aZAJAk
「我……我成年了！」他急切地喊道。51Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEN6WEpsYEt
我明明是15歲的男人，卻因為身高，看起來像12、13歲的孩子。51Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqpVLKeYcak
（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。51Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUzAQSDONbc
51Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcqA2CcqPNv
「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。51Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡc5Dgh6AaHA
（被搭訕了！）我愣愣地看著她。51Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEEAKzzJPkI
「不好意思，我跟弟弟一起來的。」米迦勒禮貌地回絕。51Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNOVocwTOTD
（對了，我們的設定是姐弟……！）我這才猛然想起。51Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOpt57iDs0g
年齡上來看，確實……是姐弟嗎？51Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkOVi6ZD7uc
51Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdBxpGaQStj
米迦勒的年紀恐怕早就破百……甚至是千了吧。51Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeuxgOAOUqV
（米迦勒是不是從來沒把我當作一個男人……）51Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXGBGYayjWx
我垂下頭，感到一陣失落。51Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡq2dpuGvUf3
「確實，我身高像個小學生，連這件西裝也是特地拿去改短的……」51Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHdJxKhjy3m
我喃喃自語著。51Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡewdUVMIXxN
「方便的話，請出示一下您的證件……」51Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiJXI4SBpdb
一旁的服務生語氣尷尬地說著。51Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLkWsxnOh90
---51Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡU6fotvd9jU
「我們開動吧！」服務員端上色香味俱全的高級餐點。51Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡe59jjK4hKV
我帶著一絲期待看向米迦勒。51Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTX9nR9rigU
「不，緋夜大人，我記得我說過，天使不用吃東西也沒關係。」51Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡz8I1QJXQfb
「緋夜大人吃就可以了。」51Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡykS0dhiAiu
她微笑著說。51Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoe8r1idIX6
51Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyVScJWpx6c
「可是……可是！」我焦急地說著。51Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7QD9YgPgGa
51Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvv0tfOaxQJ
「而且這看起來是在人類世界相當高級的食物呢……」51Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHo3SxEnr1n
她望著眼前的料理，若有所思。51Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjQFqfuEDYl
「憑緋夜大人的財力，有點困難吧……」51Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3T0Zf6d6GZ
51Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrEkR8rKQnB
「您該不會去借高利貸！」51Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiKOcXewOh3
「我才沒有啦！」51Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6oyTfJPQbo
51Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrkuy0Mp4Rl
「我還是有點積蓄的……」當冒險者也五年了。51Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOYg9Qjm8EG
「所以想帶米迦勒一起來吃點好吃的東西……」我低聲說著。51Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiaWSvIlnIm
（但怎麼跟我想像中的反應完全不一樣。）51Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPNkq9ROr9E
果然，還是把我當成要照顧的弟弟吧！51Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEpdm5voYd5
51Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡADbGUcOaBb
米迦勒看著我緊張的模樣，腦中靈光一閃。51Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNo81jnTXnk
（對了，要讓緋夜大人建立自信才行！）她想通了。51Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡH5TzBzWQu9
「我知道了，那我就不客氣了，緋夜大人。」51Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhQ2bA0M40K
她拿起叉子說著。51Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwVOOf9fiei
「嗯……嗯！」我高興地回應。51Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuzcQhxDl86
51Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiIcwwylzqD
---51Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMOoPQobhyA
吃完後，我們走出餐廳。51Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ14m7l49Eh6
「我們再來去買衣服吧！」我開心地提議。51Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡN5NQAfVcx7
「給米迦勒穿的！」51Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsJQB2f4L7R
我走在前方，米迦勒則靜靜地跟在我身後。51Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIp5M7ZK79U
51Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXhbuSz4hfc
（天使不能將人間的東西帶回天界……）51Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuiQZnyH3Tl
米迦勒望著我興奮的背影。51Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVkUlZ2pQ8e
（但如果現在說出口，他可能又會陷入低潮……）她一邊思考。51Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5HvvgHYuzx
（總之，今天就照著緋夜大人想做的事去完成吧。）51Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNHTo7nGBiz
這一切，都是為了幫他重建信心。51Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgO38oqcnEB
51Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOJgVnofJtj
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。51Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3z0knPGhVq
接著去看了一場表演，也逛了許多熱鬧的攤販。51Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaTXNKWE40B
還趕走很多來搭訕米迦勒的人。51Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡt3uo9srBqS
51Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRNJpUlUaUR
太陽漸漸落下，傍晚的光線灑在兩人身上。51Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWgou3awgZU
51Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡV9R3QJFNY3
---51Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMtUSbd4XsS
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。51Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxeve4cjqWB
「那個……」我緊張地開口。51Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqRqhlSc9OH
「米迦勒，今天開心嗎？」51Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡD1zpvURg6j
我轉頭望向她。51Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDVHXNNobgW
51Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjCvRLU2p3A
她也轉頭看著我。51Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhy0kmpx1Rv
「嗯，謝謝你，緋夜大人。」51Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡghnBLzbCb3
「我很開心。」米迦勒笑著說。51Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡphbNv0jIGj
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。51Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡu8nurzQSKC
51Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwcnGCrBIB5
（看來我之前太專注在了解魔界製造的魔物強度了……）51Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGJgeXumRKu
她轉頭望向閃爍的小鎮燈光。51Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGiVyIw6al9
（人類……是需要這種放鬆與釋放壓力的生物……）51Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡD6IILZTcWj
米迦勒默默地想著。51Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbpRaaZaTEd
51Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZAUmjayIzZ
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。51Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ67FrfgfzEN
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。51Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKsUKhWKVtT
結果往往導向人類毀滅的結局。51Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ25GimY6NBl
51Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzNvYhqoEPv
（天使不能直接干涉人類世界……）51Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2PbV8ET28u
人類的命運，只能由他們自己決定。51Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqFQU898HkE
（我所能做的……）51Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbqBp7JZhAA
她看向男主的背影。51Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqvaYxTxaJk
（就只有回應他的召喚，在他需要的時候幫助他……）51Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZ0aw8D2yaA
51Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2wH9U0FOgB
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。51Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7zU68xUgsk
51Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡibgOAwtLEm
「有機會再這樣一起逛逛人類世界吧。」51Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ46wTSOew32
米迦勒微笑著說。51Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrLI6dnmdsN
51Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7FsslLPttc
我低下頭。51Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡn7mqRfSxWR
「米迦勒……」我開口說。51Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4I8h2T30ux
「其實今天邀妳約會，是因為……」51Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡim1IuI9QUh
我握緊拳頭。51Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrQxcSXoCCn
（我已經下定決心了……沒錯……）51Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2SHzgqp03J
我在心裡默念。51Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRlehtMSTmE
51Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4hgHZeOmJi
「我不會再召喚你了。」51Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmyG2xd4SgT
我終於說出口。51Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡASZn62Tg16
51Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrSBeEYVez1
米迦勒愣在原地，看著我。51Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbccxvRUouo
「這是……為什麼？」51Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsMR9CLbRZZ
她的聲音微微顫抖。51Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjlKo4d5vMX
51Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIQNIZirysG
「因為，我太弱了。」我說。51Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRyVN13S6yf
「如果我死了，米迦勒就會無法回到天界！」51Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvEsWkXamek
「我不想讓那種事發生，所以……」51Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ91HoXVPHIH
這樣，對我們兩個都比較好。51Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnjTzeHIB7R
51Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLhdzTMLjVp
米迦勒是透過我，才能來到這個世界的。51Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLFJVgqNMAO
如果因為我，讓她永遠無法回去……51Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡx2PMBxyPqS
我不願意……我不要！51Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡT9GPiCF0Us
51Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ81CIUIbL2O
米迦勒凝視著我，緩緩開口。51Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡY9IiDlUVA9
「不用擔心，緋夜大人。」51Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhXhatKbjgO
「這是我自己的選擇，就算發生了，也不是您的錯。」51Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTTwIP3JBZp
「是我沒有『保護』好您。」51Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQgR0ndybR4
她說完，靜靜望著我。51Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMf2Hr12pZ9
51Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgb4iskf5qn
「我不要你的『保護』。」51Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzImO4eZ5Ns
她的瞳孔微微顫動，凝視著我。51Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡk61xbLtBBf
51Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXr0jWSsccV
「我也想變強啊！」51Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiaGzro2CAK
我忍不住激動地喊了出來。51Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvtTzbDrM75
「我也想自己打倒魔物啊！自己生活！自己賺錢！」51Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzlSjUhH7ZQ
「我明明這麼努力！」孤身一人成為冒險者。51Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡG9bIriO0Dx
「結果卻完全沒有變強！」永遠的E級。51Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7WBzbULkSR
「所以我想要一個夥伴，可是……」51Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIWPpuAhLeZ
51Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡa84wjbcFQT
「你太強了。」51Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ65FI44Fj2r
我看向米迦勒，她震驚地看著我。51Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpvpmqGB0Sr
51Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSUxtRPexcQ
我一開始，根本不是想召喚天使。51Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡc5XQy2YJxj
我只是想要一隻能陪我戰鬥的幻獸。51Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSIuaHUTqdG
當「米迦勒」出現在我房間時，我完全震驚了。51Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbkjzIsOlMd
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。51Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhCcvo3Uyf8
但是……51Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2n1j6G03r1
51Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqnhcPpyD3O
「這樣根本就不是夥伴……」51Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfKuCU2IyHL
在米迦勒眼裡，我永遠只是被保護的對象。51Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEPdG1sQS3g
在她身邊，我永遠只是個累贅、拖油瓶。51Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhAmsrhgR3K
我們注定不是同等的存在，是最弱的我，與最強的她。51Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4PAuAiNkoV
51Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjR9Dz2mFZu
「我今天帶妳逛城鎮，就是為了跟妳道別。」51Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLKkmhVk4Hc
畢竟天使已經三百年沒來人類世界了。51Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡr07XVXgtrT
「希望未來，會有其他人召喚妳。」51Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAQErtgRxZy
這樣我也不會留下遺憾了。51Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtpMj6OhErR
51Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfnjCgSQQ0c
（我還有要做的事，我得找到我的父母，所以……）51Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhdpNCVPp6B
（我必須自己變強才行。）51Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJt6iaLvjb5
我抬起手，雙手合十。51Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGu5hrxCMXv
51Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPB0VHZ6vrB
「等等，緋夜大人！」51Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKAuHRL1HTD
米迦勒焦急地伸出手，想說什麼。51Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHzcduuYpGZ
51Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhVtBuJ4ukA
「再見了，米迦勒。」我低聲說。51Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZkl0IG31FB
「能與妳相遇，我真的很開心。」51Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWJI3lqwRi6
我關閉了，與『大天使米迦勒』之間的召喚通道。51Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡB1oNrz4BMw
51Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡD4WHfltR4K
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。51Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlviKgRkNbZ
51Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡd1TTUT2NKA
我站在原地。51Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqB9cax5rMh
「喵！」焦糖從我的衣服裡鑽了出來，51Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡo273OnCB9o
牠那三條尾巴，在夜色中閃著微光。51Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8O1lXoRVML
「焦糖……」我歪腰撿起地上的洋裝。51Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡR3r8aQWJyQ
「如果下一個召喚物……能是你的同類就好了。」51Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNadb2H6X3H
我手中拿著那件洋裝，望向寧靜夜色下的小鎮。
