Chapter 35.1
Without telling everyone, I lived my usual life with an innocent look .
I’ll work hard alone .
I’ll do it alone .
The day Tomotaksenpai let go of Chako’s hand, on the day that finally came, I tried to be frank with Chako about everything .
About the ability to stop being a familiar .
About Grandpa who’s resurrected, and is making Chako’s body .
And, I wanted to say .
――Be reborn, and live with the person you like .
I thought she’d surely live .
If at a time when Kousuke-kun and sensei were saved .
If at a time when Tomotaksenpai had let go of Chako’s hand himself .
If at a time when Yuusei-kun and Tomoyuki-san were there… and did many fun things .
However, Chako left flying .
The road I desired for Chako’s sake .
Chako said she didn’t need that and turned her back .
She said she’d walk on her own road, and flew away .
I alone couldn’t be Chako’s hero…
Finally making the resolution to convey everything, I told everyone .
They might thrust me away . They might condemn me . They might insult me .
However, when I informed everyone of the things I hid, everyone kindly accepted them .
Including me resurrecting Grandpa――a phantom who killed humans, including him being in the middle of gathering miasma right this minute .
Everyone simply, moved solely to save Chako .
Yuusei-kun immediately went to meet Grandpa, and the two talked about various things .
Tomotaksenpai captured the phantoms he was scheduled to exterminate, and carried them to the mountain to thicken the miasma .
And, as the occasion of erasing Chako’s body might turn into a battle, sensei and Kousuke-kun planned strategies, and practiced .
In order for such actions of ours to not become targets of criticism, Tomoyuki-san did everything in his power so that we were not conspicuous .
Tomotaksenpai was there so, we could have recalled Chako, and told her everything .
However, I didn’t want to forcibly stop Chako’s road .
Because, Chako always assented to me .
The me who chose a road selfishly .
Should have caused Chako lots of trouble .

Even then, Chako always looked at me with gentle eyes .
『Don’t overdo it alright?』she said .
『It’s fine as long as Yui-chan has fun』she said .
Chako walks straight on the road she chose herself .
However, with that alone Chako will disappear .
That’s why, I’ll wait for Chako ahead of that road .
When Chako goes to the place she decided to be her goal, I’ll pull Chako’s hand .
Everyone listened to even such selfishness of mine, and cooperated .
Spoken so harshly to by Chako, Kousuke-kun and sensei should have been pained but, they moved to erase Chako’s body .
Yuusei-kun constructed a new spell so that Chako’s will wouldn’t lose its way, and opened the road from school to the miasma swirl .
Tomotaksenpai surely, had to endure a lot .
I told him the method to release the familiar contract .
He knew that when Chako’s body disappears, she won’t be a familiar anymore .
He shouldn’t have wanted the bond with Chako erased but, Tomotaksenpai motionlessly bore it, and stayed there .
And now, Tomoyuki-san’s looking after the wounded Kousuke-kun and sensei .
Everyone is waiting for Chako’s return, at that house .

I couldn’t have done it alone .
I think Chako opened her eyes at the end, because everyone was there .
Surely, Chako went straight on the road Yuusei-kun made .
As Grandpa should be waiting at the miasma swirl, the two may be talking at this time .
Is Chako surprised?
Is she happy to meet Grandpa?
I think back to Chako’s smile, which I like very much .
I want to see her quickly .
I want to hug that warm body quickly .
In the car heading to the mountain Grandpa lives, alone, I clench my fist tightly .
The car finally reaches that mountain . Talking a little with the driver, I get down from the car .
The full moon shines on the mountain road I’ll be climbing now .
However, when I reach that mountain road, as trees are growing on both sides, the light is interrupted, and I can’t see ahead .
The pitch black road fans my fear .
… Did it really go well?

Didn’t Chako disappear after all?
Anxiety spreads in my chest .
To escape from that anxiety, I produce light using the power of an onmyouji .
The light I became able to produce after training with Yuusei-kun .
Besides the power of the Priestess of Ominous Clouds, I also had the power of an onmyouji .
The power of the Priestess of Ominous Clouds is lost but, the power of an onmyouji remains .
“Chako… I’m coming at once . ”
Light shines on the pitch black road .
Faster, faster! I continue to move my feet desperately .
As I do, I become out of breath, and sweat flows .
When I continue to climb using a brisk walk, a slight taste of blood comes from my throat before I know it .
Only the sound of stepping on earth and the sound of leaves rubbing because of the wind .
And, my rough breathing are resounding on the mountain road .
At the end of my moving forward without a single stop, is my destination .
When i desperately concentrate my eyes in the pitch darkness, there is――
”… Chako!”
