"Then, let me ask you this. You don't want to save Serena and the other three?"
Reiji's question made Reira frozen. In a moment, he almost forgot them. He only thought of Ray. But…
He finally remembered it, everything he experienced…
He remembered the feeling he had when he tried to protect Serena in the underground area. Although Obelisk Forces continuously appeared, he didn't hesitate. He DID want to protect Serena. It was the first time he did with his own will, not under the order of anyone else.
He remembered about Yuzu, her smile and how Yuya wanted to rescue her by all costs. Yuya… he would surely be sad and blame himself very much if she didn't come back.
What are you doing!? Ray talked to him through his mind. Please, challenge Reiji. I know what you're thinking, I know it isn't easy, but I need time to revive, I must defeat Zarc and save this world. Again.
Reira didn't hear what Ray said. He was still lost in his own thought.
"Are you sure you're fine with losing your friends, YOURS, for a world that nobody knows how it is?" Reiji continued asking, staring at his younger brother's eyes.
"But…" Reira was confused, "Ray is your real older sister, unlike-"
"Listen, Reira!" Reiji interfered and grabbed Reira's shoulder. "You ARE my real brother, no matter what. I don't care about the blood or something. Since the first day you went into my home, you became my real brother!"
"N-Nii-sama…." Reira whispered, almost cried.
"And don't worry about Zarc. Please believe, Reira. Believe in Yuya and his pure heart. He and others will stop Zarc themselves. We'll help them as much as we can. Now let's rescue girls first."
"I'm sorry, Ray…"
Reira whispered when Ray's voice resounded in his mind again. He shook his head and held his brother's hand. "Reira!?" Reiji blinked.
"Let's go, nii-sama, let's save Serena and others," Reira decided.
Reiji smiled.
