Chapter 122 – You Enter El Balom
As soon as she learned that her true identity was Snow White, her fighting spirit softened. And I felt very fortunate that we could negotiate through dialogue.
‘I’m going to convince both of them unconditionally and make them on my side.’
That was my judgment. In order to do that, he had to move Snow White’s heart.
This is because Becca will eventually follow Snow White’s will, and in her previous life, Snow White disappeared by herself and her whereabouts became very mysterious.
While I was thinking about it for a while, Snow White spoke up.
“Did you say everything you wanted to say?”
I am used to using my body rather than my head, but I seriously thought about it in my own way. After reaching the level of a great wizard, he chose and chose what to ask of Snow White.
I finally opened my mouth.
“I wonder why you teach Becca like her pupil.”
Snow White answered without the slightest hesitation.
“Your magical talent is very good. She has a woman I hate, and she will raise me to be a wizard worthy of standing against him.”
As soon as I heard that, I felt like I had been hit in the head. Because it’s an answer I didn’t expect at all.
If there’s a woman that Snow White would hate, she comes to mind only as Elfriede.
However, if she was training her Becca as her disciple in order to stand up to Elfride, she wondered why Becca in her previous life had become Elfride’s shadow.
This time it was Snow White’s turn to ask. She asked me
“As you can see, she doesn’t seem like a person who deserves to belong somewhere. However, the aura it emits is a bit peculiar. She feels more than just practicing. Did she go through something special?”
When I heard the story, I got a little goosebumps. How accurate are her eyesight?
I nodded and opened my mouth again. Rather than hesitant to say many of her things in front of her, she would rather just say the things that came to her mind right away.
“Is it okay if I guess who the woman you hate is?”
“Try.”
“Elfriede. Right.”
“…!”
A moment of surprise spread over Snow White’s expression. Soon she nodded her head.
“That’s right. I will have a decisive battle with Elfriede. And if I die and lose, Becca will carry on that will.”
I was easily persuaded.
Perhaps Snow White in his previous life fought a battle with Elfride and even saved her life, but it seems that it was difficult to recover. In that state, Elfride took her Becca.
“Anyway, did you want something from me? She could twist Becca’s neck, but she didn’t bother, and she noticed my presence right away.”
Snow White’s words point out the main points without any gaps. I got a very cool feeling from her while talking to her.
Thanks to that, I, too, got to the point. I had no intention of making noise in the first place.
“I hate Elfriede too.”
Snow White’s expression became a little subtle. She stared at me with her doubtful expression. I spoke.
“But I wonder why he accepted Becca as a disciple when he hated it together. Becca’s personality is too dirty to accept her talent alone?”
“You can change your character, but you can’t change your talent. Someday, this guy will have something to be guided about.”
Becca in her previous life was Elfriede’s shadow. In other words, the Becca of the other life failed spectacularly at fixing her own personality.
Becca asked, scratching her head.
“Here, God. Are you saying that my personality is dirty even in the eyes of God?”
“Your personality.”
“Yes.”
“Obviously, it doesn’t belong to the good axis. But that’s not necessarily a downside either. Because anger is the driving force that moves you. However, if we correct that to some extent, there will be no death from being eaten by anger later.”
Becca was distorted in real time at the subtle explanation, whether it was a compliment or a curse.
I nodded my head without saying a word, as it felt like Snow White had said something to me. Snow White’s question was directed at me this time.
“So, why do you know about Elfriede’s existence? No, why are you telling me that you hate Elfriede?”
I thought for a while about what to answer. After thinking about it for a while, there was no reason to hide the reason.
“Killing Elfriede is my goal.”
Even though it was only a few words, I was a little nervous as we talked. It felt like fighting in mud.
“But I said it because you said you were thinking of having a duel with Elfriede. Maybe they have similar goals to mine.”
“We have similar goals… Similar yet different.”
“What do you mean?”
“I just want to be the strongest. And the reason I dared to pick Elfride and say that I would duel is because I don’t think I’ll lose to anyone other than Elfriede.”
After speaking, Snow White nodded.
“Did you understand? Rather than having ill feelings towards Elfriede, I just wanted to prove my strength. However, in order to prove your strength, it is also true that you must kill Elfriede.”
After hearing that, I also nodded. It was because I felt that Snow White was a woman who pursued the extreme of magic with her really serious attitude.
She asked me
“You seem to have a grudge and want to get revenge on Elfriede, but is there any countermeasure? I’m sure he’s not the kind of guy who can’t say things like that blindly.”
“Measures are being piled up one by one. It’s going well on its own.”
“The word “In progress” Raises a little question. Well, anyway, if you succeed in taking revenge on Elfriede, then you’ll have to compete with me too. Because I want to be the strongest.”
Snow White continues her words.
“And there was a frankly funny part in the conversation just now. Even Becca, she said once in a while that she would definitely kill the woman I hate. The two seem to get along better than I thought. How about reconciling?”
Becca scratched her head in embarrassment. I looked at Becca with a little wonder.
‘This guy also said his goal was to kill Elfriede?’
So, what was the reason that I was frantically chasing after him in my previous life to give me the holy relic? If he had stolen the holy relic from me, would he have put it in his arm and tried to fight against Elfriede?
My brain got complicated.
“Well, it’s not like we have to reconcile today. Think about it that way and go back.”
“I must return to El Balom.”
“What is El Balom doing?”
“It’s a place where people who have lost their lives get together and live a wonderful life. Chase the main culprit who ruined your life and get revenge.”
Snow White nodded and opened her mouth to Becca.
“Becca, you too, don’t touch anything related to El Balom from now on. Better to just pee than spill her brains.”
“Ah yes… “
Becca replied, blushing.
“Then let’s both leave. I have to think about apples and magic by myself. Becca, please see Florian off.”
“Yes? Seeing you off?”
“Okay.”
“No, why should I… “
“Why?”
“No, no. Okay.”
As soon as I left the cathedral, Becca glared at me.
“Ha fuck… Why did God see you? I don’t understand. Florian is a bastard. Be lucky.”
At that time, Snow White’s voice flowed from inside the church.
“I hear everything. Becca.”
“…”
Becca’s expression turned pale and I’m sorry! She shouted in succession as she hurried into the cathedral.
As I returned to El Balom’s inn, I replayed today’s conversation. There were many mountains to overcome.
In order to bring the two of them under me, I would first have to compete with Snow White. I thought that I would have to be extremely diligent in training in the future.
◈
“Becca.”
“Yes. God.”
After Florian left, Snow White let out a deep sigh and opened his mouth.
“I told you to see me off, and then you started quarreling again. Why is he so anxious that he can’t be hit?”
“I was upset.”
“It’s Becca.”
“Your god.”
“It seems like you’ve been neglecting your magic training lately. Have you already been satisfied with the chaos of dawn? Is it your happiness to become a frog in a well?”
“No, I can confidently say that I have never been lazy. However, I just can’t go further because I feel the limit. It feels like being blocked by a wall.”
Fuck! The apple thrown by Snow White hits Becca in the head.
“Everyone who seeks magic feels that.”
“That’s because this wall is especially high.”
“I will ask you one thing. Becca, do you have the will to overcome?”
“Oh, why am I not here? I really want to overcome it unconditionally.”
Snow White took a bite of the apple. He pondered, pondered, pondered, and finally let out a deep sigh.
“Go to El Balom and stay for one month. It will be a good experience for you.”
Becca’s head snapped.
“I beg your pardon?”
