Chapter 96 – Self-Reliance (5)
Karelin moved her steps with a feverish expression on her face.
It’s a natural reaction to be frustrated every time, and the stranded plan is finally about to see the light of day.
It was a wait close to several hundred years.
The process of finding suitable warriors and saints was not easy.
Even if I tried to create it artificially, the bowl could not stand it during the synchronization process.
I endured it though.
Because there was
Always looked for
Even if you fail.
Next.
Even if you fail again.
Next.
Failure.
Next.
Failure.
Next.
Failure.
Next.
Failure.
Next.
Repeated countless times.
How many times was it a tough process?
Karelin’s mind was quickly worn out as it took a considerable amount of time for even one opportunity.
Is there any reason to do this?
Could I forget about it now?
My heart ached every time I thought about it, but now it’s nothing.
Human emotions are fire.
Although it is hot and emits a stark light.
If there is no material to burn, it won’t last very long.
So Karelin burned another.
She cheered herself up.
So she was left with nothing but stubbornness and stubbornness.
Only the ugly will of wanting to see you remains.
It rusted and cracked.
How far do you fall
Is it worth it?
There is.
There is not
If not, what have you built so far?
It has made countless other people unhappy.
Her purely for her own sake.
I want to see.
Then there would be no circle.
What if it fails again?
Need to find a scapegoat again?
Until when?
Negative thoughts fill up like pus.
“It’s different this time.”
That was what Karelin was saying to herself.
Einstein and Arya are different from previous generations.
I took them out of faded memories and put them in.
To the extent that it is believable even if it is reincarnation.
Even when the synchronization aptitude was confirmed through the test, it was the best ever.
Edris and Erine’s reaction to the two entering their bodies was virtually non-existent.
Originally, it was normal to feel cramped, as if wearing clothes that didn’t fit, and to complain of stuffiness.
But they roamed the desert unharmed.
It was different from the previous hero and saint who complained of pain.
Karelin was encouraging.
When she stopped at the shrine of the cloned wandering moon god, she screamed.
Even in that space, they showed no signs of suffering.
Others would have been idiots.
I endured it as if I was fine.
It seemed to come out smoothly.
‘If it wasn’t for you.’
Aww
Karelin, taking human form, bites her lip.
It was blatant sabotage.
Do you think that the being who has only been on the sidelines has been getting a lot of trouble?
It seems that it is the same for gods and humans to become impatient when a blade is thrust into their neck.
The flames calmed the raging heart.
Because the existence I’m going to meet now shouldn’t show a disheveled appearance.
It would not be an exaggeration to say that it is more dangerous than the clever moon and stupid year.
Unlike the insubstantial gods who converge on their plans and try to trick them.
He could have physically killed her.
Karelin stood at the door.
Profit.
The huge door opened by itself, revealing what was inside.
It was a spacious room, a luxurious room lined with rare and high-quality items.
Unfortunately, all the ornaments that shine are buried thanks to one existence.
A black throne appeared.
There, a being was sitting leisurely.
Her hair was as black as ebony, and her eyes were red like melted rubies.
The two horns rising from the sides of his head indicate that he is no mere human.
Although he has an appearance close to that of a young man, the atmosphere he creates is entirely noble.
Lord.
It is a word that anyone will think of when they see that man.
The man who rested his chin on the back of his hand and looked down at Karelin with a bored expression.
His free glance at her was over her.
“Is it time, Karelin Panaman?”
His profound voice expressed his presence.
The one who sees all things.
The existence of a man-intelligence that differs in rank.
Humanity calls him the Demon King.
Karelin answered the question.
“It’s not yet.”
“… Not yet.”
His index finger tapped her throne, and it became a hollow echo, tapping Karelin’s eardrums.
“Then there would be no reason for bringing Jim.”
Karelin’s simple remarks without any emotion put a strain on Karelin’s body.
Her disbelief, but her words took shape and frightened her.
There was nothing to say.
The other person has lived for over a thousand years, so common sense won’t work.
Karelin couldn’t even cough, she just gasped and grabbed her throat.
Pop.
When her index finger stopped tapping on her throne, she found freedom in her breathing.
A sharp cough erupted.
Her man waited for Karelin to breathe evenly.
She glared at her man with ferocious eyes.
“She has come to tell you that there is not much left.”
“Aren’t you always excited?”
“It is different this time.”
Despite Karelin’s firm tone, the man snorted at her.
“Is that the sound again? Even those struggling with debt will say more than that. Giving an ending has its limits.”
“Ha, what a joke. Are you talking about the one who couldn’t stand it at all and stormed the capital?”
The kingdom’s capital, Gaul, was the final destination for crafting the vessels of the hero and the saint.
Saying that they raided such a place was no different from saying that they would break the contract.
“I don’t care about the time issue, but there’s no guarantee that my children will too. And…”
“And?”
“It was a moment when I was slowly getting tired of it. I think extermination wouldn’t be bad either.”
“It’s about keeping a secret promise, Demon King.”
At the word secret promise, the demon king raised his head, loosening the grip on his chin with the back of his hand.
There was a slight hostility in his eyes.
That alone was enough to put pressure on Karelin.
“It’s a secret drug, so it’s funny. No one can force fruit, not even the moon and the sun, including the firmament. The only reason why Guwain listens to you, who is an insignificant insignificant creature, is that he is interested in the unusual proposal of appointing a hero who will kill Guwain. But what did you see? Has there been a blade that could cool the conversation between wine and wine over the past five hundred years? It was excessive at best. Cuts hurt, but what kind of blade doesn’t? It’s exhausting to deal with only idiots.”
The more her demon lord questioned Karelin, the more her intangible aura suppressed her.
Its momentum, like a fierce storm, seems to tear apart small prey in front of it at any moment.
“It’s different, really.”
That was all she could say.
The man shook her hand vigorously.
“Don’t expect how different it will be. So, why did you come to Gwain?”
“Give me a place to live. It is still in the final stages.”
“It is not difficult. Go and see.”
At her celebratory decree, Karelin backed away, chewing on her lips.
She was resentful and resentful, but she still bought time for Edris.
She did not intend to miss this opportunity.
Certainly.
I will definitely save you
* * *
The man regretted it.
He lost them because he had erred in her judgment.
It happened because he was arrogant and overconfident.
I wanted to go back.
If only I could go back to that moment.
If only I could save them.
It’s nothing more than an empty assumption.
Time that has passed cannot be undone.
What is lost cannot be regained.
Only the burnt embers remained for the burning man.
The fire is too much.
He was ash
Everything burns, only a handful of ashes.
To express the feelings of the first hero, it was parchment stained with regret and frustration.
It is so fragile that if you poke it with your finger, it will break through.
I don’t know how many times I’ve seen it over and over again.
Synchronization is like that.
A form that is tuned to the person’s ego by repeating tens, hundreds, thousands, and tens of thousands.
However, Einstein’s ego endured and overcame all the oppression.
Rather, he snorted.
Is this kind of person encroaching on me?
That’s funny.
Einstein maintained himself firmly despite the overflowing waves of emotion.
And finally, the other person asked a question.
-Do you think it would be different?
The will took shape, and distinct features were formed.
Looking at it like this, it’s a very similar face.
Except for the color of her white hair and red eyes, she could be considered looking in the mirror.
“No.”
Einstein denied Edris’ question.
If I lose Ariana Azazel, there’s no guarantee that it won’t happen.
Besides, didn’t he already lose his sister?
It was about to break.
If it wasn’t for the master
“I won’t be much different from you either.”
Once lost, there is no alternative.
Young-young left.
– But are you confident?
But the human heart is quite cunning, always looking for a substitute for what has been lost.
Even if that doesn’t make it any better.
However, it can be used as pitiful consolation.
Even if you lose something important, you just have to make something else important.
Aria.
So always think
You are not a substitute for your sister.
I can say it over and over again.
You are the only one to me
He is an indispensable person.
“I still think I’m better than you.”
-Do you think you have to lose more to come to your senses?
“Calm down? What are you talking about What’s the difference when you surrender yourself to a loser like you?”
-I can do what you can’t.
“What is it?”
– Killing the Demon King.
“Didn’t you lose someone precious because you couldn’t do that?”
– He and I were in the middle of the day. However, I was just missing one end.
“No excuses either. If that’s the case, I can do what you can’t.”
-… What is it?
“To make Arya laugh.”
He was silent
It must have been an unexpected answer.
– It’s insignificant.
“You couldn’t do that little thing.”
In his memory, the daughter did not smile.
You’d be right to see that it didn’t.
She was always worried about her father, concerned about her, even until the moment she died.
-If you don’t catch the devil, you’ll lose everything, right?
“Don’t make assumptions. Because I’m not a mean person like you.”
-Didn’t you say there’s not much difference?
“Right. There is no big difference between you and me in terms of being human.”
It was rather generic bullshit.
– You talk as you please. You will regret it You who do not know loss…
Who says you don’t know loss?
Arrogantly flaunting.
Kkondae is so harmful
Einstein raised his middle finger with a deliberately angry face.
“Aren’t you sick? If you lose it and tremble, who will notice? You’ll just lose it unconditionally, and you’ll regret it too. Anyone can say such inert words. So shut up, you chronic loser bastard.”
-You are bold. Are you ready to regret it?
Einstein looked at his waist.
There is a sword.
It wasn’t the Holy Sword.
I don’t know what it is, but there was just a ‘sword’.
The warrior drew his sword without hesitation.
“I’ve had enough.”
And cut it
Shape in front of your eyes.
– There will come a day when you will regret it.
Einstein replied sternly.
“You don’t regret it now, do you?”
If it was long, it was long, if it was short, it was followed by a short silence.
He let go of his stiff expression.
He even smiled.
As if it was successful.
As if it passed.
– I don’t know if it’s possible for you.
“What.”
-To free her from her shackles.
It was a gentle voice.
The space was broken before Einstein could inquire further.
He opened his eyes.
It’s dark, perhaps because the space doesn’t even get sunlight.
“It is a strange place.”
“… Oh, what happened Why is Edris’s soul dissipating?”
There, I saw Karelin muttering with a puzzled face.
Einstein untied his hand and replied slyly.
“Simple. Your plan is a failure.”
