Lamento Beyond the Void Expiatio Epilogue

This is the final chapter of the novel! It's only a few pages long. This also means that the novel is now fully translated. Enjoy!

[Prologue] [Part 1] [Part 2] [Part 3] [Part 4] [Part 5] [Part 6] [Part 7] [Part 8] [Epilogue] [Glossary]

Finis

Winter came along again.

The city of Ransen was as busy as it was a year ago, no, it had already been more than a year ago. The laughter from other cats who were dressed up in costumes could be heard all around them. The lively atmosphere had retuned after Leaks’s defeat, and the Void and the Sickness had completely disappeared.

Konoe was looking around as if it was his first time joining the festival, and Rai was walking behind him. The Sun of Light had already set and the winter festival became even livelier as the light of the Moon of Shadow rose from the east.

Both Rai and Konoe became bounty hunters, as a pair. Rai's right eye would still hurt from time to time, and the memories of Leaks, which now resided in Konoe’s body, would sometimes torment him. Rai had no idea what these memories were like, however, he knew that it was painful. He wished that he could ease the pain even a little. That’s how he wanted to help Konoe, who had always supported him when his heart was engulfed in darkness, even now.

"Hurry up."

Rai called out to Konoe, who was walking behind him. He stopped moving after an unexpected smell reached his nose.

Catnip.

Rai remembered last year's festival. The catnip sold in a place like this must be of bad quality. What if Konoe didn't buy that incense back then? Rai assumed his life would have never changed.

"What are you doing?"

Hearing Konoe's words, Rai quickened his pace until he stood next to him.

"Are you satisfied?" Rai’s question made Konoe frown.

"Don't act like I was the only one who wanted to see the festival."

"Isn’t that the case?"

Rai said, while the corners of his mouth curled up into a grin. He wondered if Konoe was having a hard time replying to him. Konoe sighed.

"Whatever. Let’s go back to the inn soon. I'm sure Bardo is using his skills to prepare many delicious dishes."

"Right. " Rai replied, as he walked forward.

Whenever they came to Ransen, Rai and Konoe would stay at Bardo's inn. Sometimes Asato would also show up.

His long feud with Bardo was also a thing of the past. At times he felt helpless or annoyed when Bardo meddled with his life, however he didn't think it was all that unpleasant anymore. He had already forgiven him.

While they approached the inn, Rai suddenly stopped.

"Do you want to walk up straight?"

"Huh?" Konoe asked him.

Without waiting for Konoe's answer, Rai walked straight along the path. This path led to the river. Rai's body was feeling slightly hot. Was it because of the catnip, or because of the mating season? Either way, it didn't matter to him.

"Wait, that’s...."

"What’s over there?"

Rai turned to look at Konoe, who was slowly catching up to him. The Moon of Light had already set and their surroundings were dark. He couldn’t see any torches and there weren't that many other cats around. Konoe stopped, staring at Rai.

"What wrong?"

"This place, it’s…"

When he asked, Konoe took his gaze away from Rai. He seemed to remember what had happened here before. This was the place where Rai and Konoe’s bodies had touched each other for the first time, what made them closer to each other.

Rai pulled Konoe's arm.

"Wait!"

He hugged Konoe's body. and licked his ears.

"Not here..."

"Why?" He asked while slipping his hand up Konoe’s shirt.

Konoe didn't reply, not used to being suddenly touched like this. Usually, they progressed slowly from grooming to doing this sort of thing. Any other time, Konoe would strongly resist, but in the end he would always accept Rai.

Rai hugged Konoe, who was trying to escape, from his back.

“Are you in heat?”

“What are you talking about!“

If they went in heat around this time last year, it would probably happen again soon. However, Rai and Konoe didn’t show symptoms of it yet. If they did this sort of thing often, there was no need for them to go in heat after all.

"...konoe" Rai whispered.

"Nh..."

The scent of the wet grass overlapped with the smell of the river. He couldn't sense the smell of incense or the presence of any other cat. It was probably still early.

Rai took Konoe’s ear in his mouth.

"...ah..." Konoe let out a sweet voice.

He told himself he hell in love with Konoe that day because of the scent of the incense. It wasn’t wrong, he was certain that’s at least what started it. However, at times, Rai wondered if that was all there was to it.

He wasn’t completely wrong. No, he was pretty sure that's what started it. However, Rai wondered if there was more to it. Was what they did at the brothel really just because of the mating season?

Was it love, or something else? He didn’t truly know what love was, but if this was love, then he fell in love with Konoe that night when Konoe called his name at the brothel. And if this was what they called love, then that’s what connected both of them as a pair.

He decided he didn’t care about the meaning of these words, he just loved Konoe.

Rai locked lips with Konoe.

"Mhh…nh." Konoe let out a soft moan.

Rai sucked on his lips and looked at Konoe, his wet eyes staring back at him. Konoe touched Rai’s neck.

"Rai..."

He softly called his name.

They rarely called each other by their names. Other than the times they were doing it with each other, it was rare for them to call each other’s names like this.

"Konoe."

Rai called Konoe's name again.

The winter night was still young.
