Memory (1)
Alpheas continued.
“A year ago, there was an incident where one of the magic school students was murdered by a stranger.”
“Are you going to kill me?”
“It was only then that I learned of the evil relationship between Etella and Chagall. “You know who Chagall is, right?”
One of the world’s 100 most dangerous people.
He was a person who corresponded to the sense of smell of the Great Purification Machine, who had also had a fight with Rian.
“I heard there is distortion of memory.” La Enemy instilled false memories in Chagall.
Everything he believed he had experienced was an illusion, and as a result, he killed Raphael, Ethera’s teacher.
“Raphael forgave him. In keeping with his wishes, Etela tried to lead Chagall to the good, but…
Alpheas sighed.
“Chagall’s mind was in a deeper abyss than she could handle. It hurt everyone around her. It was a dangerous situation for not only students but also teachers. And in the end… one student was sacrificed.”
“Have you arrested Chagall?”
“no. I don’t want to admit it, but he’s strong. That’s why Etella left school. “Wherever Etella is, Chagall comes.”
I understood Etella’s feelings.
“Where are you now, teacher?” Alpheas shook his head.
“I don’t know. It is said that Chagall’s sense of smell reached the level of superpower. If we could track her wherever she is, there would be two possible locations. If there was an opponent who could confront or overpower Chagall in a place where no one was around,
Etella would not have let him run rampant.
“You can either blend in with the crowd and wait for the right time.”
A place where you can hide your body odor.
Kingdom of Pesia.
Although it borders Tormia, it is geographically part of the southern continent.
As a developing country, there was severe corruption and a serious slum phenomenon due to economic polarization.
Slum sector 7.
If Radum in the Kingdom of Tormia was a place where people hid in poverty and plotted plots, then Sect 7 was literally a den of beggars. Approximately 450 beggars were being raised in this place where there were many shacks that could not even block the rain.
Although the kingdom provides meals, the quality of the food is at a level that can be considered trash.
Nevertheless, the reason we collect them and feed them is because they become good models for politicians.
Sect 7 was the starting point for numerous crimes in the secret biological experiment and assassination plot.
“I was hungry…
The 7-pyeong room was crowded with people, and there was a bad smell from the filth they had packed.
Everywhere looked like a bathroom, but there was a woman sitting in the dirtiest place among them.
Romi Etella.
Meals were provided once a day, but she rarely had her turn.
The beggars glanced at me as I covered myself in black rags that would have been white at first and covered my body with dirt.
“You’re doing it again. “What the hell is that girl?”
At some point, he joined Sect 7 and it was bizarre to see him do this whenever he had time.
But since there were a lot of mentally ill people like her here, the beggars didn’t really care.
‘I have to leave.’
It’s already been 30 days since I entered Secte 7.
Although he was disguising himself with all sorts of odors, Chagall’s sense of smell was such that he could even remember the incident.
‘You know all my smells.’
To get rid of the smell from her intestines, she scooped up the dirt from the floor with her hands and put it in her mouth.
It was disgusting even for the monk’s spirit, but Etella’s eyes only burned with anger.
‘I can’t forgive.’ Until the student at the magic school was murdered by Chagall, she tried to uphold Raphael’s will.
However, what he received in return for carrying out his good will was the death of numerous acquaintances.
From a monk of the Carsis Order to a student at the Shinto Magic School.
‘Methodology of Evil.’
It seemed like he was mocking me, asking if you could really forgive me after doing this.
‘I’m going to kill you.’
Chagall’s evil was eating away at Etella’s goodness.
‘I’m sorry, Master. I’ve lost my mind.’
When revenge on Chagall is over, even Etella will no longer be able to be called good…
‘Don’t worry, Chagall. You won’t die alone.’
Now that didn’t matter either.
‘I’m going to kill you and go with you.’
A sparkle flashed in Etella’s eyes.
‘To eternal hell…
Mark suggested.
“It’s a monumental occasion for the seniors to get together like this, so why not have dinner together?”
The sun was already setting, and all of my classmates felt sad that they had to part ways like this.
The same was true for Sirone and Amy.
As we moved to the restaurant and had some drinks, an open conversation took place.
As expected, the topic of discussion was the war against demons, and Valkyrie’s general, Iruki, explained the situation.
“not good. “We will lose.”
The reason they were not afraid despite the hopeless prospect was because they were also in the middle of a war.
“The key is the Kingdom of Tormia. Because this is the final gateway to the central continent. “If the demons break through here, no country in the world can stop them.”
Dante said.
“Tormia will not be breached easily.”
Seriel asked.
“Do you have a strategy?”
“I can’t tell you the details because it’s confidential. Of course, some people may have already guessed it. In any case, it is almost certain that the final battle will be Tormia.”
Iruki added.
“Valkyrie is also making her own preparations. Of course, the scale of damage would be impossible to estimate arithmetically, but there is a small chance of winning the war.”
“…How long will I die?”
“If we look at kingdoms occupied by demons, on average, 87 percent of their citizens died. In other words, assuming we reach Tormia, most people here will die.”
Dorothy spoke in a solemn atmosphere.
“Then this could be our last reunion. “Shall we make a toast to commemorate the occasion?”
“I won’t die.”
People’s eyes turned to Sirone.
“I will never let you die.”
“Sirone…
I could feel what he was carrying from his facial expression as he glared fiercely ahead.
“When we first started the war, we said it was impossible. But we ended up here. The ivory tower moved and the voice closed the psychic sphere. And if we all fight as hard as we can…
Shirone smiled.
“So let’s toast to victory.” The alumni of Alpheas Magic School raised their glasses and shouted.
“Let’s win!”
The time to leave was approaching.
As Sirone went outside to get some fresh air, the sounds of the bar rang in his ears.
‘come.’
Is it a manifestation of a sense of timelessness or is it just a delusion of certainty created by emotions?
‘Something big is coming.’
The acceleration toward the end was felt more clearly than before.
‘What kind of future awaits?’ I couldn’t even imagine it yet, and I could only shudder at that vague image.
“Sirone.”
When I slowly turned around, I saw Amy coming towards me with a blush on her cheeks and a smiling face.
“let’s go?”
Sirone must leave.
“Sorry. I have to deliver it to the ivory tower as soon as possible. This is how we met…
Amy shook her head.
“Let’s not try to be happy just for ourselves. I hope there will be a world where everyone can be happy. I will fight hard too. And I’ll wait. Because there is only you in my heart… I
was already drunk, but
I had to muster up even more courage. “So, what I want to say
O…”
Amy smiled brightly.
“love you.”
Sirone saw the full moon floating in the sky clearly in her eyes.
“Uh…
hot tears flowed.
“why are you crying?”
“uh? I? Why…
Sirone realized it too late and hurriedly wiped away the tears, but for some reason he couldn’t stop.
‘I must remember this moment.’ I don’t know why, but that’s what I thought.
‘I must remember this woman.’
Even the moon in the night sky contained in Amy’s face, voice, body scent, and eyes.
‘I will never forget!’
Shirone grabbed Amy’s shoulder and engraved her form into his retina.
“Amy, you must never forget me. “You must remember me at any moment.”
“What does that mean?” Sirone was afraid.
It seemed like the gigantic future rushing into this world would sweep away everything.
“Promise me.”
Amy didn’t understand, but she nodded when she saw Sirone’s scared face.
“Okay, I’ll remember. No matter what happens, even if the world ends without you, I will remember you.”
Sirone kissed Amy and their hot breath connected the two into one life.
And after a while.
People who came out of the bar after hearing the roar of space movement saw Amy standing alone.
As Gaold’s air press exploded, reaching the level of destruction, a mushroom cloud rose from the ground.
Gangnan’s eyes were shaken in shock as he and Zulu looked down at the scene from the distant sky.
“This is impossible…
Gaold, who had even begun to forget his memories of the maze, took special measures.
The result is this.
“How can I become stronger?”
“Because I’m human.”
Zulu said.
“The human mind has no limits. However, Gaold… just chose a more convenient method.”
Zulu went down to the ground after seeing that the deflagration had disappeared and a huge crater had formed.
A wind blew to push away the smoke, and Gaold appeared with a meaningful smile.
“It’s over.”
The southern demons have been completely eliminated.
However, to Kang Nan, Gaold’s smiling face was more than sad, it was grotesque.
“Are you really okay?”
“what?”
“You know. You…
Kang Nan and Zulu hurriedly turned around at the sound of applause heard through the smoke.
“Isn’t it cool? After all, he is the strongest man.”
The familiar voice and familiar tone of voice made Kang Nan’s face pale.
Miro was approaching with a smile.
“long time no see? I heard that our cool guy is working hard, so I came to give him some consolation. how have you been doing?” My heart couldn’t help but race at the thought of meeting Gaold, but I had no intention of creating a situation that would make my skin crawl.
‘I even watched the kiss.’
It was a maze where you could only come to the south after drawing a line like that, but Gaold didn’t move.
“what? I was so moved… Miro’s eyes widened at the sudden feeling of life, and the air press immediately fell down.
Quaaaaaaaaaaa!
Behind Miro, who hastily widened the distance, the incarnation of the Thousand-Armed Avalokitesvara was suddenly rising.
It was instinct.
“Run away!”
At the same time as Kang Nan shouted, Old Gar rushed towards Miro and fired an air gun.
“Ugh!”
Cheonsu Avalokitesvara’s longhand shortened the time and fired bullets, but he could not attack Gaold.
“Kill me!”
Gaold grabbed Miro’s neck and pushed in, forcing her to the ground.
What was more shocking than the neck-breaking grip was Gaold’s eyes.
“die. “I mean die.”
It was clear hatred.
“Gaold… why’?”
“Feelings of love tend to become dull. It was amazing that Ga Old kept it even in the midst of pain. But now we are at our limit.”
Even that memory was disappearing.
“Gaold chose to hate you instead of forgetting you. Then you can endure a little longer.”
“Keuuu…
Zulu spoke in Middle Eastern while looking indifferently at the Gaold who was strangling the maze.
“It’s extremely humane.”
