Undertaker - Black Butler Collab - Sun End

Chapter 6 - A Slight Interest

A church bell ran from afar... While hearing that dark sound in a daze, Undertaker-san and I were silent. Then... 

Undertaker: Heehee... I've taken a slight interest in you. 

When Undertaker-san said that as if he was singing, he slowly got up. 

MC: ...? 

Undertaker: I didn't want to do this, but since I'm in another world... 

MC: Eh...? 

Undertaker: It's okay... It's nothing to be afraid of.

When Undertaker-san said that softly, a shadow fell onto his cheeks and his expression became unreadable. 

MC: Undertaker-san...? 

As Undertaker-san was holding something behind his back, he slowly approached me. Holding my breath, I became unable to wait for his words... 

Chapter 7 - The Form of a Grim Reaper

-Flashback-

Undertaker: I didn't want to do this, but since I'm in another world... It's okay... It's nothing to be afraid of.

-Flashback-

As Undertaker-san was holding something behind his back, he slowly approached me. 

(Undertaker-san? He's acting kind of...) 

His faint smile wasn't like anything I've felt in this world... I took a step back. 

MC: U-Um...? 

Undertaker: Do you think you can show me something for just a bit? 

MC: Show you something... What would that be...? 

Undertaker: I don't need to tell you. Because you know everything. 

MC: ...What do you mean? 

Undertaker: Heeheehee... 

As if Undertaker-san was toying with my uneasiness, he tilted his head to the side a little. The moment Undertaker-san was close to a distance where he can reach out to me... 

(That's...) 

What he took out from behind his back was a large sharp scythe. 

(...A scythe?) 

The blade that's sticking out of the thorn wrapped skull shined dimly as the light reflected on it. 

Undertaker: Now, let's begin. 

When Undertaker-san swung it up with both hands, the bladed edge of the large scythe grazed the ceiling. 

(I need to get out of here...!) 

Although, I wouldn't move due to fear. 

Undertaker: Don't worry... I'm not going to hurt you. 

Undertaker-san said that happily. When he smiled ominously, the way he moved the scythe around made him look like... 

(A grim reaper...!?) 

From the gaps of his bangs that swayed, I saw his eyes clearly.

(Ah...) 

Despite the situation I was in, those yellow-green eyes were so beautiful that I became captivated by them. The moment I thought that illumination was like bright stars... 

MC: ...!!

Suddenly, there was the loud sound of the scythe cutting through the air. 

As my heart was pounding, I closed my eyes tightly. Although... 

MC: ...? 

Getting no sensation of being attacked, I opened my eyes nervously. Just when I thought I was going to get cut down, I slowly looked down and my clothes weren't torn. 

(What... happened...?) 

I slowly looked up at Undertaker-san. He lowered his scythe and looked up at the air deeply intrigued. 

Undertaker: Hmm... 

MC: Um...? 

As it seemed like he was enjoying a movie, he looked like he was looking at something I couldn't see. 

(What is he looking at...?) 

After looking up for a while, Undertaker-san softly spoke... 

Undertaker: You too... You were an influence in people's lives. 

MC: Eh...? 

Undertaker-san sounded peculiarly gentle... As I was breathing roughly, I couldn't do anything, but watch the odd scene... 

Last Chapter - An Episode with the Will to Live

-Flashback-

Undertaker: You too... You were an influence in people's lives.

-Flashback-

As Undertaker-san was holding the large scythe, he looked around at the air... 

(Undertaker-san? What is he looking at...?)

After watching that scene for a while, Undertaker-san deeply sighed. 

Undertaker: Everything started when you came to this world. 

MC: ...? 

Undertaker: You saved many people from slumbering into death... That story continues each time you do that. A story of love and hope... Ah, how delightful. 

Undertaker-san's shoulders trembled satisfied. 

MC: What... are you talking about? 

Undertaker: What I'm looking at... are your cinematic records. To put it simply, your memories. 

MC: My memories...? 

Undertaker: That's right. But, I'm not allowed to see them if the person doesn't have an appointed death time... Heehee. 

MC: Why can't you do something like that? 

After I said that, I gasped. The black clothing and the large scythe that can reach the ceiling... I recalled the feeling and words that I thought of right before I was going to get cut. 

MC: Undertaker-san, could it be that you're-

Just as I was about to say it... Undertaker-san softly placed his cold index finger on my lips. 

Undertaker: Who knows...? 

His smile that was a mix of both happiness and sadness made me silent. 

Undertaker: ...You've said it yourself. You want to save people. 

-Flashback-

MC: But... This power made me bond with so many people. That's why I want to save the people that I've met. 

-Flashback-

MC: ...Yes. 

Undertaker: I was interested in why a normal girl like you would say something like that. Besides, saying something like, "I want to save the world that suddenly brought me here!"... Normally, I wouldn't... Kufufu... But... I somehow understood after seeing your cinematic records. 

As Undertaker-san was smiling, he looked at my face.
