MEMORIZE Chapter 865

00865 D-Day, Five. ————————————————– ———————-=

I feel once again that the source of the power shown by the devil camp probably came from a thorough hierarchical relationship.

Demon 14 It is said that even monarchs tremble in front of great demons, not to mention demons.

In fact, it feels so severe that even I think it’s a bit excessive.

Well, there was a case where a civil war broke out for a while to claim the captured Sangvis Queen, but since the factions are different, let’s overlook that.

However, there is only one other race that has a system that is almost comparable to that of the devil.

It’s a fairy.

From what I’ve heard, the moment the Fairy Queen is selected, she is respected almost to the level of a sacred figure and is absolutely revered.

In some ways, it is even worse than the devil, in that it is both one-size-fits-all and universal.

Let’s think about it. What sets the Fairy Queen apart from regular fairies?

Of course, there are many things, but first of all, I would like to focus on ‘awakening’.

Ordinary fairies awaken only once in their lives, during the transition to adulthood.

There, they realize their own power and belong to a role group that fits their role.

But the fairy chosen as the next queen is different.

It is said that the first awakening is the same, but after that, it awakens once more.

So, it means going through two awakenings in total.

This second awakening is the most important process in testing the queen’s qualities.

So what exactly is this second awakening and how does it happen?

Here I discovered an interesting fact.

A fairy’s first awakening occurs naturally as she grows older.

However, the second awakening, granted only to the queen, is completely different.

That means you need a fairy spirit.

This new object is a type of crown called ‘thorn crown’ that has its origins in the World Tree, that is, Yggdrasil, which has now been lost by user Kim Soo-hyun… .

『Ahead of the Temple of Promise by user Yang Ki-deok, a famous explorer of the Northern Continent… .’ 』

There is a saying called ‘kidney opening effect’. For example, when a new restaurant opens, it refers to the phenomenon of people flocking to it out of curiosity to know about the taste. And after a while, you will continue to find people who suit you and stop looking for people who do not suit you. If you can’t cater to everyone’s tastes, it’s inevitable that the number of customers will decrease.

Although the situation is different, some principles similar to the ‘kidney opening effect’ apply to the New Continent. At first, there is a huge influx of users. Everyone is dreaming of making a fortune, so they go out to explore and go on expeditions every day.

However, this interest does not last forever. This is because, compared to the endless supply of users, the resources of performance are quite limited, and even those are not easy to find. (Of course, cases where secret libraries like the North Continent are used are an exception.) In the end, this phenomenon also depends on time. As this passes, it is bound to fade.

If you think about it from this perspective, the time when the ‘rumors’ started flowing was a good time. Maybe it’s time for users’ enthusiasm for the new continent to cool down a bit and for them to become accustomed to it little by little. To be exact, about half a year had passed since the orc castle was conquered and Ragnarok was discovered.

No one knows or can know where it started or who spread it. It just flowed from various places at some point. According to the story, the main topic of the rumor was war. There is a rumor that Odin, the inner city lord clan, is planning to conquer the eastern continent.

As the issue was an issue, users quickly became interested. When they first heard the rumor, most people responded that it was strange. Even though they are active in the same hall plane, they have been living as strangers so far, so the prevailing public opinion was why they were disturbing the quiet eastern continent.

Then another new rumor slowly began to spread. The rumor was that if each of the four continents succeeded in conquering the frontier, they would have to compete over the center in the future. At the same time, words were circulated explaining why it was necessary to attack ‘now’ and words related to the current development status of the eastern continent.

Is this all? The benefits that could be gained if the occupation was successful were also mentioned secretly.

Rumors tend to be distorted. The more it is passed down through word of mouth, the more severe this tendency becomes. It was like that this time too. As the rumors began to gain weight, the arguments became more intense as the days passed. Moreover, after the second rumor began to circulate, even though it was a small number, those who supported the war began to appear one by one.

As a result, the theory of ‘conquest of the Eastern Continent’ was no longer dismissed as a rumor or gossip. As if someone had deliberately instigated the story, the rumor spread throughout Ragnarok at an incredible speed, like fire caught in the wind.

Once the fanning was successful, the public’s attention and attention naturally turned to the Odin Clan. Is this rumor true, are they really thinking about conquering the East Continent, etc.

Of course, even in the midst of the chaos, quite a few users visited the temple to check whether it was true or false. In the end, it was natural for the angels to become aware of the situation.

In this situation, Odin did not make an official announcement. He did not rush forward and just waited quietly as if he wanted to see the reaction first.

With the situation changing day by day, D-Day is finally approaching.

*

It was a clear and quiet morning. Under a clear, cloudless sky, a luxuriously built blue palace is built that will thrill your heart just by looking at it. And the blonde woman standing on the terrace extending from the upper floor blends in with the surrounding scenery, creating a picturesque clarity.

Of course, this only depends on how you look at it. Only she knows whether the feelings of the woman standing on the terrace will be as calm and beautiful as the scenery, or whether they will be complex.

‘How… .’

Shiny blonde hair fluttered in the cool wind that suddenly blew.

‘How… .’

It was just two or three months ago.

‘How… .’

The confident eyes that used to look down on the city are now colored with a colorless color that makes them look very empty.

‘How did things end up like this?’

Eldora, barely able to form a thought, chewed her mouth gently.

The beginning was trivial. He just went to find the sheath, and along the way, the woman who had been sealed was freed.

… okay. It’s just that.

The problem began after it was revealed that the woman was a god called Thanatos. Even though it has grown, it has grown too big. At some point, she came to her senses and found herself faced with the current situation. It was no longer just the Odin Clan’s job.

‘really… .’

When I first heard it, I thought it was plausible. Thanatos’ words were quite true to the truth, and he awakened his forgotten questions and caused a huge stir. So he was furious. He thought it was natural anger.

‘Really, am I doing a good job?’

But when something happens, the pressure known as fear weighs down your entire body. I felt like I was being swept away by an angry wave that I couldn’t handle.

‘I’m afraid.’

If I were to reveal my true feelings without hesitation, I would never have wanted such an extreme situation. Should I just say that it felt like I was being subtly pushed on my back by someone?

Anyway, there was only one path left. Unfortunately, Eldora cannot decide what will happen in the future. no. The judgment itself is made by humans, but the outcome depends on the angel’s true intentions.

“after… .”

Eldora let out a long breath and turned around. And just as she was about to return to her room, she suddenly stopped walking. Eventually, her eyes landed on the white bag sitting on the table beyond the terrace door. It was the bag given to me by Melinas, who came to visit last night.

The eyes that had been staring at the bag for a long time soon close.

‘What is this?’

‘well. ‘You could say it’s the last bastion that will protect Eldora.’

Melinus was like that. Don’t trust Thanatos. However, even angels should not be blindly trusted. Both sides must be heard, and judgment must be made by humans.

‘actually… . I am afraid.’

‘Melinus?’

‘When our guess was right, and when we knew things were about to get out of control… . ‘How do angels come out?’

‘that.’

That was something El Dorado was curious about. Should I be embarrassed or change? Or will she just pass it off as a coaxing excuse, like she always did, or scoff at it as if it were nonsense? It’s impossible to predict either way, but Eldora was hoping for the latter. Ironically.

‘… Eldora. Eldora is the guardian of the southern continent, right?’

‘you’re right.’

‘Then what is the role of the guardian?’

‘It’s about leading the entire southern continent in the right direction.’

‘That’s right. To do that, you need two things: The ability to make the right decision and the courage to implement that decision.’

‘… … .’

Still, there is still a way. We’ve come a long way, but at least we’re at a point where we can still turn back. Just pretend this never happened. He explains to the angel that the war is just a rumor, reveals the woman’s identity, and asks about her treatment. Then everything will run smoothly.

… but.

‘Is that really the right direction?’

A life where you are a puppet who knows nothing and is used as an angel’s chess piece?

The moment his thoughts reached that point, a dream suddenly took hold of Eldo. When I slowly open my eyes, my vision is blurry. It must have been in front of the room, but everywhere was covered in white fog. I walked carefully, but I couldn’t see anything other than the fog.

“!”

At that moment, I was wondering how this could have happened. Suddenly, two hands slowly broke through the fog and stopped right in front of Eldora.

In each palm lies a pill of contrasting colors. It is a scenery similar to a scene from a movie. It’s not a hole plane, but I think I’ve seen it a few times in modern times.

‘If you want to know the truth, take the red pill.’

‘If you want to see what you want to see and believe what you want to believe, take the blue pill.’

The light of conflict was clearly revealed on his face as he looked at me in confusion. The protagonist of the movie thought and hesitated for a while, and eventually chose the red pill.

Then, Eldora… ?

It was then.

smart.

“ah!”

As soon as there was a knock on the door, my blurry vision suddenly became clear. I closed my eyes once, opened them, and the scene in the room returned. Eldora then realized that she had stretched out her arms without realizing it.

“… … .”

The hand is touching the bag, not the red pill or the blue pill.

‘Eldora. From now on, listen carefully to what I say.’

‘The items in this bag… .’

Coincidentally, Melinus’ voice rang in my head more clearly than ever.

smart.

“Please come in.”

I could barely speak as if I was letting out my breath. Then the door clicks open and a man dressed as a priest comes inside. Eldora was a face I had never seen before, and at least it was not a member of the Odin Clan.

The priest opened his mouth.

“User, Eldora Cornelius.”

A polite, but firm and businesslike voice.

“It’s an angel’s call.”

And as soon as I heard the next words, boom! My heart was pounding.

“As a guardian, please attend the meeting.”

The hand was already squeezing a faded white bag.

—————————= Review of the work ——————– ——-=

Okay, there’s only one episode left.

The long chapter of Episodes 7, 6, and 5 that I was worried about is now coming to an end.

I bow my head deeply to the readers who have endured my boredom for so long because of my greed.

Sorry, thank you.
