Chapter 679 – For Whom the Island Is Moved (7)
【It’s not bad to have the mindset of repaying the person you owe money to.】
I said to the kneeling bicorns.
【However, if the reward is blind loyalty, it is meaningless. The object that binds you is only changed from the curse of Odin and Loki to the individual.]
【No one among us thinks so.】
【That doesn’t make any sense. Because I think so.]
Fuck, isn’t it a conclusion that you don’t have to worry about even for a second?
It was a fucking simple discussion that could have been understood with just one example.
‘Just because a doctor healed a patient with a fatal disease, does the rest of the patient’s life depend on the doctor?’
Anyone who answers YES to this is not a doctor. He’s just crazy
God damn it, are you willing to spend the rest of your life just because you saved my life?
There is a degree of blackmail. The idea is that the dead Hippocrates will come back to life and, like Jesus, use the Twinkle Whip Attack to break the earthen pot of the bastard who recited that bullshit.
Of course, there is no legitimate way to do that.
As I did with Veronica, she just had to accept her feelings and swear she would reciprocate just as much.
That process is called marriage.
‘But aren’t you guys Veronica?’
I can’t take responsibility for the entire Bicon family. I have no intention of doing so.
Even if you can’t take responsibility, do you accept it? So, what is the difference between refusal to take responsibility and what does it mean? Using the pretext of saving them as slaves is something only a professor would do.
I raised my finger and pointed at the young bicorn next to Adelaide.
【Your name must be… It was called Elka.]
[Yes, yes! This is Elka Arimmos, Guidance-sama!]
It’s a bicorn I’ve seen before.
A young child being trained for the next generation of seers, in case Veronica fell short of her duties. She was a girl who had no duty to shoulder now that the curse had been lifted.
【Isn’t it regrettable that I couldn’t become a prophet?】
【Ter, that’s absurd! I’m just happy!】
【It’s nice to be honest. So from now on, you are free, is there any place you would like to visit personally?]
Elka opens her mouth to look a bit silly.
【Go, the place I want to go… ?】
【You haven’t reached the age of majority as a bicorn yet. My age is about 30, so if you live as long as you live as long as you live, after my death, you too deserve to go out into the world.]
Without blinking an eye, he pushed on calmly.
It’s not that there isn’t a reason to argue against my words, but there wasn’t an atmosphere to argue with.
Elka looked at Adelaide, her teacher, and when she kept silent as if she respected my will, she carefully shared her thoughts.
【Yo, I want to go to the fairy kingdom.】
【It’s a fairy kingdom. It’s good. Me and Veronica have been there too.]
─Swipe. When I noticed her, Veronica said, hiding her bewilderment.
【Right. It was an impressive place with warm water springing from the leyline, aurora blooming in the sky cold enough for a snowstorm, and the city center blooming with the power of the Fairy King.]
【Aurora…】
Elka, whose eyes twinkled, lowered her head as if she had come to her senses.
I shrugged and asked Adelaide too.
【Adelaide. You?】
【… If allowed, I would like to visit the ruins of Germania. I hope that I can use the rest of the dawn allowed to me to contrast, revise, and preserve my knowledge and the truth of the Age of Gods.]
【What a wonderful dream. You might be the first bicorn archaeologist.]
After that, I pointed to the bicorns and asked questions.
Few people knew the name, but the bicorns were embarrassed, saying they didn’t know because they had never confided or thought about it.
[I want to run in the wilderness that is said to come out if you head east. I’m a little more familiar with the appearance of a horse, and I’m comfortable with it… 】
【It’s okay. However, it is a dangerous place, so be sure to have a guide accompany you. A new dynasty of elves is about to be established. It would be nice to have a kite with them.]
【… I want to meet the dwarves. That and, if possible, marriage.]
【That’s cool. I have high eyesight. It’s an excellent choice.]
【Yes, the food of the outside world that the prophet said… 】
【They say there is no end to the pursuit of gourmet food. If it’s just the beginning, I’ll help.]
In the first class, I slightly awakened the feelings of the teachers who introduced themselves.
The reason I’m answering straight away is because I have high authority over them.
【Look at that. Once you say it, it comes out easily.]
【… …】
【What you are saying now. It’s a dream that I couldn’t achieve because of the curse and never thought to achieve.]
After listening to their stories, I blurted out.
【But if I yoke you and treat you in the name of a guide, how is that different from the curse that afflicts you? Is there mercy?]
【It is–】
【Stop talking about my identity, prophecy, or fate. Instead, if there are other reasons for me to pamper you, it doesn’t matter if I tell you. I’ll think about it after listening.]
It’s different from Anina, the bicorns who can’t even click.
Shiva, this is why I am dumbfounded and do not give up.
These guys were Veronica’s relatives, parents, and family. But does it make sense to spend the rest of your life working on it for a few months?
【I don’t need to say more. I won’t stop you if you follow me, but only when each of you chooses after thinking about it.]
I will not make them a place to stay as a lab room that suppresses freedom.
This was the only premise for me to exist as myself.
If it’s enough to stoop to words here, this realization wouldn’t have made me realize my aura in the first place. The wick of my ego is right there.
But, to be honest, releasing them into the world is also unsettling.
Not knowing the world is the reason, but the biggest cause was something else.
【The right to dream is the most precious freedom for living things.】
I waved my hand and said calmly.
【That’s why you’re easily threatened, and you have to protect it by making sacrifices. If you want to do what you want to do, you have to do what you have to do.]
As I was talking, it became a repetition of synonyms, but I kind of like it. A bit of a wordy feeling.
I should definitely use it when I write my autobiography later. It’s a pity that it’s not a situation to write in a notebook.
【So, what I’m going to say from now on is a proposal I’m giving you guys.】
【… What do you mean by proposal?]
【I can’t stop you from leaving in search of freedom. However, even after the curse has been lifted, there are still many people in the world who will not see your dreams.]
The bicorns made faces.
He understood what I was talking about even without saying it word for word.
‘What if each of us broke up with rude words and then got killed one after another?’
There is no way that those who want to erase history, or fanatics who follow a mad god, will not extend their grip on the bicorns who have left in search of freedom.
It was only a few hundred years ago that the holy land of unicorns and Alfheim were burned down.
For the bicorns, who will live 10 times as easily as humans, wouldn’t that be the realistic past of decades ago? Just as the older generation remembers the Korean War.
【Your curse was a cage. It was a fence that confined you and also protected you. Your struggle started when you broke the cage and came out. Even if you didn’t want it.]
【You are talking about the fight for freedom.】
【All life is like that. If I could live on my own, I would have given up on everything and went to live with my wives. Fuck the world There is absolutely nothing going your way.]
【… Big.]
The bicorns tightly closed their mouths and suppressed laughter. No, seriously, why are you laughing?
【I don’t intend to take responsibility for your lives with the burden of loyalty. Instead, you can have a helping and helping relationship until you can do what you want to do.]
─Puck! He punched with the palm of his hand.
【I think we can agree on this point as well. What is your opinion?】
【… I wonder if there is any.]
The bicorns spoke with a softer expression, as if they had nothing to share.
【We will follow you for our will and dream. You, not the guide of the prophecy, but the one who will lead us into bright chaos.]
─Chuck! They got up and greeted each other.
They stopped showing their loyalty and paid their respects. Satisfied with that, I recalled the prophecy of the Age of Gods, which I had heard many times before.
—So to speak, a berserker who does not fall into a beast.
—He who is not devoured by ferocity and fury, but a king who gives rest to fallen beasts. On the day of his return, all beasts must vacate their thrones and worship the king.
Words that prophesy the existence of Wolfheddin, the guide of destiny.
A prophecy left by the prophet of Bicorn.
It was a foreknowledge that was once erroneous, but came true again like a trick of fate.
Earth, the world created anew by the gods who foresaw destruction with the power of creation.
The ‘beast with wisdom’ born there accidentally flowed into this world, and through the arrangement of the gods, it obtained the power of the god of all things and even obtained magic to imitate the god of heaven.
That’s how I ended up sitting in the seat vacated by the guide of fate.
If this is enough, it is correct to say that it was fate rather than just luck.
‘… He is the king of beasts.’
To be honest, I think it’s a fucking prophecy.
King, isn’t that what makes his heart flutter just by hearing it? If he was born as a man, there was also a macho passionate argument that he should build a country at least.
‘But my family has been atheists for generations.’
Didn’t Odin say that too? Fuck fate.
Because people have the right to be beaten if they twist, as long as they can take responsibility.
【Let’s work together. Until the day I can do the things I want to do.]
Looking at the bicorns, I shrugged.
【In that case, first… I should start by telling you how to write a contract.]
Wolfhedin Academy focuses on practical subjects.
Say thank you It’s because it’s not common to find a job in another world that provides free education and guarantees private insurance.
