Oo—O—oO
When he opened his eyes, he saw nothing but blank spaces. But a minute later, he realized something; he hadn't arrived at the place he should be.
This isn't the Heaven he knew.
He stood at the wide space; one of the stairs that were cut in the middle of it's way toward the human world. Tired of standing, he chose to sit and tried to remember again what kind of things he hadn't finished yet in this world.
Guarding Teito Klein a.k.a Warheit Tiashe Raggs after Vertrag's death? Check. Gave him the Cursed Ticket from Barsburg Clan? Check—he had solved the 'crime' at his biological family, so he deserved it. Then, why did the Chief keep him standing at here, not at Heaven where his comrades 'live' for this past ten years…?
/What I wish for is—/
…ah. That's right. That guy—Landkarte—was the main reason why he wasn't at the Heaven yet. The darkness still lingering at him, if he remembered it well.
And by the way, Ea had just realized that his eyesight had returned.
The scar that Landkarte left on his eyes had gone.
He sighed tiredly. /That loafer… I wonder how's he doing right now…/
And there, on the staircase to the Heaven, he waited alone for the certain loafer in all white attires to come back from Hell. Even though he couldn't save him by his own hands, he knew that someone—someone who was far younger than them—could do it for him.
Sigh again. "It seems like my permanent job is to wait for someone to come, isn't it?"
But that's alright, actually. He had nothing to do after he finished his job as 'Ea' if the electric lime-eyed guy wasn't present at his side, anyway.
"If you keep me longer than I can stand, Landkarte, I'll make sure that I'll not talk to you again when we arrived at the Heaven."
He smiled—a very faint, yet playful one.

The End.
