Chapter 271 – Chapter 12 – Chaos
[Are you the chaos of this world?]
“What does that mean? A skull.”
[The scales of the beginning. Balance of the universe. The system responsible for the weight of fate. The more the gods break the rules that maintain the world with their foolish desires, the more judges pile up and ultimately descend to punish them. Call them chaos. Just like me and you.]
“Hoo.”
When she heard him, her eyes began to shine.
In fact, from the moment he appeared, a light of anticipation began to shine in her eyes.
Suddenly, the air rumbled and a skeleton with three skulls radiating an unusual energy appeared and was floating around. How could one not be excited?
[You descended into a mortal body. Perhaps there are creatures created by God into the world with personal desires. Getting rid of it would be the meaning of your existence.]
“Who are you to arbitrarily decide the meaning of her existence?”
Once.
However, what he said just now could be said to be a little arrogant.
[I am the king of those who have not died. A living death. It was the embodiment of the concept of death.]
“What was…?”
[While the gods were busy running away from me, who was born from their own mistakes, the living beings succeeded in overcoming me with their own power. Even though he borrowed power from another world, borrowing is also part of his ability. They overcame their first ordeal brilliantly.]
“Hmm. Is there a second one?”
I was upset for a moment
The story her skeleton told was an unfamiliar yet interesting story to her.
It was the kind of thing that was hard to bear for someone who was always full of her boredom and looking for her own fun.
[You can say it exists, or you can say it doesn’t exist. The second ordeal is living in a world without this body.]
“Hmm?”
[This body symbolizes the concept of death. The disappearance of this body means that the concept of death disappears from the world.]
“Wow. Isn’t that a good thing?”
[There may be foolish people who think that way. However, if you look at the true intention, there will be no other disaster as bad.]
Twice.
[Something is only born and does not decrease any further. Food does not rot, and discarded items do not decompose in the waves of time. Even if creation lives for a thousand or ten thousand years, it cannot reach rest.]
“… It doesn’t sound all that good.”
[This second ordeal also. They completed it.]
“Oh. How is it?”
[One life absorbed all lives.]
“… Hmm?”
Cheonma, who was listening to the story with interest, momentarily tilted his head.
[Death and life are inherently lacking in each other. The absence of death is life, and the absence of life is death, so if you absorb all life while the concept of life still remains, you can create a rest similar to death on the side that has lost life.]
“Something. Difficult.”
[There is no need to think about anything difficult. In the end, the person who was left alone overcame the ordeal and put all living beings except himself to rest, and I have an obligation to give him compensation.]
“Anyway. Are you her real enemy?”
[Because the person who has overcome the ordeal wants it.]
“Then let’s fight.”
There was no need to make things complicated.
Whether he is an enemy or not. There’s no reason not to fight someone who looks this interesting, even an enemy.
Rather, isn’t it convenient and good?
[The chaos of this world. Have you not yet found the creation you need to destroy?]
“I have an idea, but I have no intention of breaking it.”
[You are also foolish. Denying the reason for birth.]
-Kwasik
Three times.
“The meaning of the original maiden’s birth. And the meaning of her life is determined by the maiden. Nothing has the right to force that on the original maiden.”
[Is that what you mean?]
A skull cut into two in an instant.
“Regardless of what it means. How can you throw away a husband who is so cute and spiteful and difficult to deal with?”
Before this skeleton came.
A woman came to see him while he was unable to control his boiling anger and was destroying everything around him.
-Passy!
“Choi, Heavenly Demon? Why are you… Ah, more than that, haven’t I seen you as a vampire?
“… Is it you?”
“… There’s something strange about the atmosphere? What happened?”
She didn’t normally think of herself as having an emotional personality, but the moment she saw that woman, her annoyance hit her.
“… What is it for?”
“What, what is it?”
“Why… Why are you looking at her with such fear only towards her real wife?”
I don’t think she was neglectful of him.
Rather, she courted him most passionately and devoted her time to him in all her years of life.
No matter what I started, I couldn’t last more than three days, but all the time and effort I put into him didn’t feel like a waste or boring at all.
But why does he…
“… Say it.”
“… Yes?”
“Tell me how I can win his heart. Tell me how I can be loved by him.”
-Kwaak.
It was difficult to calm my emotions.
Is this the feeling of jealousy that we only hear about?
No matter how hard you try. Even though I pour out so much love, my husband only gives me a fearful look. Her jealousy boiled over as she imagined herself standing in front of the woman in front of her, whispering words of love and being cute.
If you won’t speak softly, even if you use force…
“Uh. You know it hasn’t even been a week since you took him there, right.?”
“… What does that mean?”
“Uh. Have you two ever gone for a walk or something like that? Or just a time to get to know each other. Do you know what he likes? Like a hobby he has other than drinking.”
“…”
“… Are you getting angry because I didn’t even do something as basic as that?!”
-Kugugung!
At that moment, a strange roar began to resonate throughout the dimension.
“Oh really.! Anyway, I’m not particularly good at dating either.! If you want to date, take your time and take your time! Don’t be impatient!”
-Passy!
It disappeared, engulfed in blue lightning just as it had appeared.
“… Relax.”
When I think about it, I think I’ve barely seen her husband smile since he came to Magic Church.
At first, I thought time would solve the problem, but I couldn’t bear it for a few days, so I was angry like this.
“… I may have definitely been impatient.”
A colorful human being who came for the first time to a world that had been gray since birth.
I may have been drawn to that beautiful light and tried to solve everything too hastily.
And.
-Kwaak.
“In the end, you too are all gray, Skull.”
In the end, that was the only thing that shined in her real world.
Then, wouldn’t it be natural to know which side we should listen to?
[Good night. The chaos of this world. If that is your will, carry it out.]
-Quarrrr!
After those words were finished, the ground began to shake, and countless deaths began to rise from deep underground.
“I guess I should finish it quickly and then bring you that crown or something as a gift.”
How would your cute husband react if you told him that it was an item used by a talking skull?
I’m already starting to look forward to it.
* * *
“What have you done just now?”
“Huh? What is it?”
“Are you asking because you don’t know?! Monsters from your world have invaded this world right now through the broken barrier?!”
“Oh. That? Of course, it is. Because those were the ones I sent in the first place.”
“… What?”
As Yeo So-cheon corrected the shock of being thrown away and stood again, shocking words were heard.
“How far is the distance between this world and our world? It takes a lot of trial and error to create a safe route to this world. And the undead are perfect to use as consumables. Even if you get lost along the way and get lost in another dimension, Even if they become dead, time does not pass for the dead, so isn’t this the best material that can be recycled someday?”
“You. Then until now.”
“Still, it was quite annoying, wasn’t it? Because you kept blocking the path you had found, you ended up holding on for so long that the world you could have destroyed a long time ago ended up doing such a bothersome thing.”
“You brought back the people who destroyed your world and sent them to another world?! Just because of one man?! Are you really crazy?!”
“There’s no way I wouldn’t have gone crazy.”
The madness in Erdel’s eyes.
“The warrior who whispered to me that he loved me. How can a person survive when the other half of me, who promised to be with me for the rest of my life once the war was over, ran away like that?”
“How can this man, even to the rest of the world, be attracted to women like this.!”
“Now… Hero? Now, the world for you is complete. Now you no longer have to suffer or be stressed by other people. In this paradise where even death has disappeared, for the rest of your life… Forever… Just me and you, the hero. Now that we can share love.”
I don’t know.
The amount of information contained in those eyes is so dense and deep that my brain can no longer handle it.
“I hate poetry.”
Incomprehensible.
A person who encounters something he cannot understand is bound to fall into fear.
This is even more so if, on the outside, it takes the same shape as a human, but inside there is a monster that cannot be understood.
“But I wasn’t just lying, warrior. It’s true that there are no more men in the world.”
“That, that.”
“I just didn’t say that I was the only woman.”
There are no men.
And the only woman is Erdel.
In the end…
“… Don’t you mean you’re alone?”
“Yes♪ I am alone. I am Eve, left alone in a world where even death has disappeared♪”
“… It’s a sight to behold.”
The shocking truth.
I could no longer say anything as the ruined world looked more miserable than I had expected.
“That’s why we need you even more. The world has collapsed, so shouldn’t we rebuild it? Your god has taken away such a precious hero. It’s time to return it to its original owner.”
“… You claim ownership on a different level. We don’t have a culture of buying and selling people.”
“Really… If it comes out like this until the end, there’s nothing I can do.”
“I will take my hero after trampling this world.”
With those words, Erdel plunged the spear he was holding into the ground.
-Jiying
“… Huh?”
“So, hero, please watch from there in the meantime.”
A translucent white curtain was drawn around me, and I felt cut off from the world.
“Seeing the world that took away the hero being trampled.”
