Gudako starts to wonder about Makoto himself while the party head their way to find Siegfried

"His friends... I wonder if he misses them"

"His friends, Senpai?"

"He must've had friends in his past life, Mash"

"I don't know about his friends, Senpai"

She checks one of his data

'Height/Weight: 170 cm, unknown
Origin: Tatsumi Port Island
Region: Unknown
Alignment: Lawful-Neutral
Gender: Male'

"Tatsumi Port Island?"

"It's an island from the Kirijo Group where most Apathy Syndrome cases reside on, Senpai"

"Apathy Syndrome?"

"Apathy Syndrome is known where people start to become unaware of their surroundings and the situation of the world they live on"

"So about Makoto... How did he die?"

"The doctors prescribed that it was unknown on how he died. When he slept, they claimed it's like his soul is gone from the body"

Gudako looks at Makoto while he was preparing defenses to set up camp with Martha assisting him

"Wow! I never knew you were this strong, Saint!" Marie complimented while she watches them work

"I did my fair share of heavy lifting. After all, I couldn't manage to tame Tarasque without brute strength" She smiles

Gudako's stomach rumbles

"Ehehe, I'm hungry. (Hope the hottie will find food)"

Makoto finds a dragon with a katana on his hand, so he starts to focus on the power of his slash for that dragon

He leans down then he positions his Katana to his waist line while he holds the handle

"Obligate style hearkens aflame this robust earth (O.S.H.A.R.E)"

He's in front of the dragon in an instant then he slowly cuts the dragon in half while he burns its insides till they're well done steaks

"Dinner is served"

"Oh wow, they look nice" Marie said as she tries to slice it with her fork and knife

Gudako stares at the steak with the bummed out face, because she expected something like a buffet

"We're in France, filled with dragons right now, master, so I turned them into a dragon steak buffet"

She huffed

"Come on, it's actually tasty. If I have to recall what it tastes like, it would be bull meat"

"Really!?" She starts wolfing it down like a beast she is. Makoto saw her act and he won't be surprised if Gudako is probably a beast class master or something

He turns to Martha and he instead presents her soup he made using vegetables. Martha saw it and she smiles

"Thanks, Makoto"

"Anytime, Saint"

"Hey, Makoto"

"Yes, Master?"

"Do you want to see your friends again?"

...

He said nothing but he instead focused on his food and setting up the defenses

"Hey, don't ignore me-"

"Just enjoy your food, master, okay?"

"Hmph, be lucky that you're hot or else I would snap..."

"You said something?"

"You're hearing things"

...

"Weirdo..."

Makoto heads somewhere far while Mash notices Makoto going somewhere they are not aware on what is he doing

"Senpai, should we follow Makoto-senpai or not?"

"Nah, leave him be, he'll just gank off his wank. If you know what I mean~" She winks

"I don't know what you mean, senpai"

Makoto in reality, looks at the photo of his friends in SEES while he lets out a sad smile. His friends are a sensitive topic to talk about, because he has sacrificed his own life for his friends to live their own life without him

If he dared to return back to his friends, he would ruin their parade just by existence. It is preferable for Makoto to not exist to their lives until their inevitable end

"Sorry, Master. Talking about them is a sensitive topic to talk about"

He looks at the night sky

"The moon is beautiful though, am I right Nyx?"

"Yeah... it looks so beautiful, even when an idiot sealed the moon"

"An idiot?"

"You, dingus schmingus"

"Sheesh fine, no need to be grumpy"

"Mikki-chan~"

"Do not call me that, please"

"But it's cute"

"Fair"

...

A fair amount of silence creeps by between Nyx and Makoto before he lets out a heavy sigh as he remembers something he did during his time in the space

"Do you remember Herta?"

"The brat?"

"Those brats are her dolls, I mean the real Herta"

"She's still a brat, why?"

"Maybe trading the Evoker for the Sawed-off shotgun was a bad idea"

"It is not. Besides, you learned how to use a gun from the paraplegic pink-haired Angel"

"Lemuen, I know"

"We sure have been through a lot, especially the previous era"

"Where I met you before you became Nyx"

"I know, Mikki-chan"

He takes out the Ambassador then the Sawed-Off Shotgun

"Never expect a shotgun to be an alternative to the evoker, but use it as a close range combat gun"

"Is there even a fighting style for a gun?"

"Do you know Gun Fu?"

"No, I don't think that exists"

"It does not"

He puts the shotgun away

"So what now, Nyx?"

"I don't know, you decide your journey, Mikki-chan. All I can do is to follow you"

...

"Yeah, maybe going with Master would be the best for us"

"Good boy"

He gets up and leaves back to the Chaldea Team as Gudako and the rest are already sleeping, making Makoto chuckle before he grabs a blanket from his pockets and then he tucks them in, then he puts the Makoto doll for Gudako next to her before he goes to do his lookout duty
