#941. I believe it
* * *
[It is impossible to prevent the invasion of the Constellations as long as the seal of the Seven Arks is broken.]
“…”
A woman with thin wings.
At the words of the Fairy Queen, they fell silent.
It was too hopeless and contradictory to say while talking about how to save the world.
But fortunately.
Or, of course, her words weren’t over yet.
[I thought so too until one person showed hope.]
“If you say one person…?”
Rose was puzzled.
The Fairy Queen, who is the first absolute being of mankind and has lived her entire life trying to stop the Constellation, is someone who knows the Constellation better than anyone else.
Because it was not easy to guess who the one who showed her hope was.
to them like that.
Instead of an answer, the Fairy Queen gave a half-question.
[Do you know everyone? The fact that dungeons are difficult to destroy, but even if they are destroyed, they will eventually reappear.]
“I was expecting that.”
[You’re smart. In fact, the dungeon destroyed by the swordsmith was also newly created elsewhere.]
From the station manager radar to the spirit satellite, etc.
Because they are monitoring the whole world with all kinds of high-tech devices, even in areas that are not yet allowed to mankind.
The fairy queen, who was aware of facts that not only the Seven Dragons, but also the country where the new dungeon was created, was able to assert that.
No matter how many dungeons were destroyed.
Constellations are remade.
It’s just as pointless as cutting water with a knife.
with a certain premise.
[With one exception.]
“…You mean there are cases where the dungeon didn’t regenerate?”
[yes. Just a few days ago, the number of dungeons that had been maintained for the past 33 years decreased for the first time.]
So it was.
The moment the Fairy Queen answered.
The reason why everyone couldn’t help but make strange faces.
In the first place, cases where the dungeon collapsed were rare, but among them, only one came to mind when limited to a few days.
“Then, I can’t believe that he was the person who showed me hope…”
[I can’t believe it.]
Even so, it was hard to admit.
to those who are in awe.
said the Fairy Queen.
[―Because the dungeons destroyed by the Sword Demon weren’t newly created.]
“…”
Everyone’s expressions became complicated.
Blademaster Vlad.
Worst sword master in history.
Although he rebelled at the end, he was one of the enemies the Seven Dragons were most wary of in that he had been the most faithful member of the World Federation until then.
So it was really ironic that they found a way to stop the Constellations thanks to him…
but that wasn’t the only reason they were distraught.
“…Are you saying that you need Vlad’s swordsman to destroy the dungeon?”
[Of course, that could also be the reason… But as a result of analyzing the information observed by Eldorado, a slightly different assumption came out.]
“What assumption?”
[Assuming that where you destroy a dungeon is more important than how you destroy it.]
And.
silence came.
while everyone is confused.
Limon quietly opened his mouth.
“…So you just have to destroy the dungeon from the other side, not from this side.”
[According to my analysis.]
The Fairy Queen calmly explained.
No matter how powerful the Constellations were, it was not an easy task to exert their influence to another world.
That’s why the dungeon was created.
It was a stepping stone and a door connecting the stars and the world.
If it could be completely destroyed, it would theoretically be possible to prevent the Constellation invasion.
The problem is twofold.
Destroying the dungeon itself was a difficult task even for the absolute, and even if it was destroyed, the Constellation would have to recreate it.
However, only the dungeons that Vlad the Sword Demon destroyed were never recreated.
One reason.
Vlad’s final moments.
A gate created in a dungeon.
In other words, it was because the Constellations jumped into the door they had made to enter this world and destroyed it.
Even though it is difficult to cut a pond with a sword, it is possible to cut off the water flowing into the pond, so it was difficult to recreate the constellations of the door destroyed on the other side.
The problem is twofold.
“…I have something to check.”
[Which one are you talking about?]
“I want to know what lies beyond the gate.”
[I don’t know that either. Except for the fact that there are constellations beyond that.]
Everyone’s faces hardened.
Right now, the Constellations are trying to invade this world.
Everyone knew how dangerous it was to go over to a place where countless constellations lurk.
More than anything…
“If you break down the door on the other side, how will you come back after that?”
[I can’t say it’s not there at all, but… As you predicted, it’s unlikely.]
“…”
[Yes, this method requires sacrifice.]
Maybe it’s because he knew what was going to happen.
While all the princesses jumped up from their seats and glared at her, the Fairy Queen slowly looked away.
Because I can handle the sword.
You can break the dungeon gate.
And someone who is ready to do so at any time.
So, facing the gray-haired man who was the only one sitting in the seat and looking at her with calm golden eyes, she finished her words quietly.
“—The sword master’s sacrifice.”
* * *
During past meetings.
Reflecting on what the Fairy Queen said.
Anastasia opened her closed eyes and continued to speak calmly.
“The Fairy Queen said that a sword master was needed to destroy the dungeon, but she didn’t say that the upper class had to do it.”
“…so you’re going instead?”
“It is.”
“I cannot allow it.”
Anastasia was not shaken by Limon’s hesitant reply.
that he would refuse.
Because of course I knew.
So, Anastasia calmly continued.
“The concubine of the Chamber of Commerce is a body that has died once.”
“….”
“Even so, I’ve been thinking about whether I can go on living in violation of the providence…. Now I understand. I mean the fact that Socheop survived for this moment.”
“….”
“So, please listen to the concubine’s request.”
By being accepted as a bride by Limon, he has already fulfilled his long-cherished wish and has no time left.
Please give me a chance to spend this useless life.
When Limon looked at Anastasia, who was sadly asking, with heavy eyes.
The running repairman clinging to him suddenly opened his mouth.
“denial. No need for that.”
“What do you mean repair?”
“answer. method simple. Just run away.”
“…Do you mean to give up even trying to save humanity and use Eldorado to evacuate?”
“explanation. I haven’t achieved my dream yet. I don’t want to die yet, nor do I want to lose my male teacher.”
“…”
“Proposal. So let’s run away together.”
Limon fell silent.
It’s like a running horse.
Raised like a beast by the Fallen Spirit.
Because they don’t consider themselves human.
It was a very natural proposal for her, who had no attachments to any human beings other than Limon, who became her mate.
“What if I won’t run away?”
“Declaration. Doesn’t matter. If the male teacher goes to fight, I will go with him.”
Anyway, without Limon, one’s long-cherished wish cannot be fulfilled, and without him, life has no meaning.
whether to fight
either run away
or die
that we will be together
An Indian girl who speaks plainly.
Limon, who stared blankly at the silver-haired bride in front of him, finally smiled bitterly.
“…I am a very blessed groom.”
Limon felt it again.
From Anastasia who wants to give her life for herself, to Suri who runs to share her destiny, and to the seven princesses.
How undeserved of a bride they are to themselves.
So he declared.
“But I can’t allow both.”
“Above…”
“…Teacher male.”
“Asha Suri. don’t forget You are already my bride.”
“…”
It doesn’t matter whether he gained a new life through the lion’s resuscitation or went against the providence.
As long as you become your own bride.
He never forsakes them and has no intention of letting them die.
Limon, who made the two of them shut up with calm words, smiled and added a word.
“Above all, I have no intention of going to die. We are working on a way to come back.”
It is obviously dangerous to attack beyond the gates where the constellations lurk and destroy all the gates.
Obviously he would have to risk his life.
But it’s about this kind of crisis.
How many times have you passed
No matter how many adversities lurked, he would surely succeed and return.
For that reason, he met Dance with Wolves and borrowed the power of the Fairy Queen and the Continental Guardians to make various preparations.
“The problem is that I don’t know how long it will take until I break the dungeon gate and return.”
“…”
“When the Constellations invade, the world will fall into chaos. So I need someone to protect this world while I’m away.”
Seven princesses are not enough.
No matter how strong they are and how powerful the Seven Dragons are.
What they have to protect is the world. It was close to impossible to protect all of humanity from the invasion of the Constellations.
In order to save even one more person, that much greater power was needed.
The power of the absolute among the absolute.
“Asha and Suri.”
“…”
“Can I ask for humanity and everyone else while I’m away?”
slipping away
at the end of looking up at him.
The running eagle patted Limon’s chest and murmured.
“Master male cowardice.”
Before being the guardian deity of mankind, as a leader, how could he refuse a request to protect his flock and nest?
While muttering, he stroked the hair of the bride who buried her head in her chest.
Limon saw another priest.
Anastasia, who had been silent at that quiet and therefore even heavier gaze, opened her mouth after a while.
“A pact… can you please?”
“…”
“You’re sure to come back?”
I didn’t really want to ask.
Nevertheless, Limon answered the question without hesitation.
“I swear by my sword.”
“…I believe you.”
The oath to the sword master is absolute.
It was a promise that would be kept even if the world collapsed.
However, he said that he would believe it because it was not the sword master’s oath, but Limon’s promise.
Grab her cheek as she slowly approached.
Limon slightly bowed his head.
And…
bang.
The moment their lips were about to overlap.
In the meantime, a girl who suddenly intervened took Limon’s lips instead of hers.
As if in search of prey.
Or like showing off.
rough.
while impatient.
deep and sticky.
The running repairman, who mixed his tongue, pressed his lips together, and shared his breath, took his lips off him after a while.
Then he turned his head and looked at Anastasia and said with a growl.
“warning. I was the first to become a male and female teacher. order.”
“Don’t worry. Even cold water has its up and down sides, so how can So-cheop covet order over his sister-in-law?”
“…Recognized. A good female who listens well to her younger sister.”
Was it strange that Anastasia yielded too readily?
I even tilted my head for a moment.
Anyway, after winning the ranking battle, the running repair made a satisfied expression and pulled Anastasia tightly as if telling you to do it too.
More than the order is set.
Now she’s the same bunch.
She was a young female to be cared for as Limon’s first mate unless he coveted his rank.
Seeing that, she even pondered for a moment whether to tell her that Anastasia actually became a bride first.
It seems like you’re satisfied with just being recognized.
Looking at Anastasia, who accepted Suri’s guidance with a smile and approached him, Limon smiled and bowed his head again.
side.
Like that…
softly overlapping lips.
The two brides prepared to say goodbye to the groom.
