He really wasn't going to see his friends again, and he knew it. He didn't even try lying to himself to say otherwise. If he ever did see them again, it wouldn't be as friends.
So it was better to just never see each other again. All he could really ask for was Mithos staying beside him, continuing to be his friend forever, just like they promised.
The future didn't feel as bright as it did a month ago, though. His eyes grew wider as the reality Mithos was promising clicked into place. A world deprived of mana, lying in ruin, with just the four of them living as angels. The entire world would be ruins filled with monsters by the time Raine was revived. The world couldn't survive for long without mana, and Martel couldn't be revived if the Great Seed was germinated. Between the world and Martel, Genis knew what Mithos would choose.
Raine would hate it. No-one would want to see ruins that were created like that. No-one wanted to see the world they knew destroyed. And that wouldn't be a world Genis would want to explore, either.
He was quick to shake his head - partially to say no, partially to get the thoughts out of his head. Maybe he was being too pessimistic. Mithos didn't say the entire world would die. He might have something else planned. Genis parted his lips, but he didn't even know what to say or to believe.
But he had to believe in Mithos, or...
"I...I'd like to travel with you again, at least," he managed, his eyes still a little misty. "But..."
