Chapter 9 – Elegia’s destruction

  [Speaking of which, there's a reason why Red-Haired Shanks abaa.]

  [After all, she once actally did that thing.]

  [However, even so, for Red-Haired Shanks to make decisions for Uta without asking her opinion is not quite appropriate.]

  [If it were me, when Uta was still young, I could indeed have helped her bear that thing.]

  [Waiting until she grew up, then I would share the burden with her.]

  [That thing would never bee a reason for Uta ao part ways.]

  [How could a father possibly abandon his own daughter?!]

  [Wait, why did I just cast Uta in the role of my daughter?]

  [That's nht, if casting, Uta should be brought into the role of a wife.]

  [Able to sing and dance, gentle and kind, apart from not really knowing the truth, Uta is full of merits.]

  [Such a woman is absolutely a great didate for a wife.]

  "Pfft, who wants to be your wife?"

  Uta snorted delicately, inwardly cursing Arton for being shameless.

  "But, Shanks abandoned me because I actally did something?"

  Uta looked at the message that appeared in the diary copy, her eyebrows tightly furrowed.

  She carefully recalled her memories with Shanks, yet couldn't think of anything that warranted Shanks abandoning her.

  "What exactly is that thing?"

  "'t this Arton speak clearly?"

  Uta muttered under her breath, pouting angrily at the diary copy.

  [Just a little note, lest I fet about Uta ter.]

  [When Uta was young, she once followed the Red-Haired Pirate Crew to the Isnd of Music, Elegia.]

  [There, Uta's Devil Fruit went out of trol, destroying Elegia in an instant.]

  [Red-Haired Shanks, to prevent Uta from bming herself, took it upon himself to bear the responsibility for the destru of Elegia.]

  [At the same time, sidering Uta's musical talent, Sharusted her to a musi in Elegia's Vilge for training.]

  [Shanks tried to ea could lead as normal a life as possible in this way.]

  "What?! It was me who destroyed Elegia?!"

  Uta's eyes widened in shock as she stood up.

  In her memory, it was clearly Red-Haired Shanks who destroyed Elegia and stole the treasures of Elegia.

  This pletely tradicted what was recorded in Arton's diary.

  "Uta, how... how could you know it was you who destroyed Elegia?!"

  At that moment, a very familiar voice sounded behind her.

  Uta turned around to see the speaker was Gordon, a survivor of Elegia and the one who had been coag her in music all these years.

  "Gordon, do you mean... it was really me who destroyed Elegia?!"

  "Hm? No... no, you heard wrong, Uta."

  "I didn't hear wrong, you clearly said it was me who destroyed Elegia. Gordon, tell me, do you know something?"

  "Uta, I... I don't uand what you're talking about!"

  Gordon turned his head away, uo meet Uta's eyes.

  Just hearing Uta's words had made him iently reveal the truth.

  However, seeing Uta's uain demeanor now, Gordon naturally didn't dare to say more.

  Uta looked deeply at Gordon, sidering the tent Arton had written in the diary, she said to Gordon:

  "Gordon, it was my Devil Fruit power that went out of trol that year, and that's why Elegia was destroyed, right?"

  "Afterward, Shanks and the others cimed they were the ones who destroyed Elegia to spare me from feeling guilty, right?"

  "Even more so, they handed me over to you to tutor me into a renowned singer, right?"

  Hearing this, Gordon couldn't help but step back.

  He never expected Uta to describe the events in such detail.

  "You don't have to lie to me anymordon."

  "Just now, I've remembered everything."

  Uta took a deep breath and said to Gordon with pursed lips.

  Hearing this, Gordon exhaled deeply.

  After a long while, he finally spoke to Uta:

  "So, the day has e, after all."

  "Uta, the i in Elegia wasn't your fault."

  "It's all on me."

  "If I could have destroyed that score capable of summoning the demon lord, you wouldn't have been exploited by the demon lord."

  Uta's eyes widened, and her legs gave way as she sat down on the ground.

  "So, it's all true?!"

  Uta murmured to herself.

  She hadn't actually recalled the events of the past.

  She just wao provoke a rea from Gordon with her words.

  And through Gordon's rea, Uta got her answer.

  At this moment, Uta fully believed that Arton was a transmigrator, believing that Artohe past and the future.

  "Gordon, you tell me iail what happehat night?"

  Uta's eyes brimmed with tears, looking pitiful yet utterly determined as she spoke to Gordon.

  Gordon frowned; he had not wao discuss these matters with Uta.

  But seeing Uta's determined gaze and sidering that Uta had already remembered many things from the past,

  Gordoantly gave a brief at of the night Uta's Devil Fruit powers went out of trol.
