Chapter 356
The coldness that made it difficult to breathe disappears, and warm warmth spreads through the frozen arms.
Crackling.
The pleasant sound of the bonfire made Shin Yu-seong feel like he had returned to base camp.
‘This time. It stopped… … .’
The world was frozen by Chronoa’s power. Like a black and white photograph, the original color remained only where the goddess’s warmth stayed.
Of course, Shin Yu-seong’s sense was free. Normal accidents were also possible. But I couldn’t move.
Jump and jump.
In a world where time has stopped, the only free being is the goddess Chronoa.
[This is the first time since Lorelai that I have shown my true self to someone.]
In another dimension, she was revered as a goddess, but if her power was calculated based on her level of danger, what level would she be classified into?
The description of the goddess is different in each tower’s records, but since the goddess is a being in contrast to the witch, the average level was around 7th grade, like Lewis.
But Shin Yu-seong knew.
Chronoa was not a being who crossed the dimension like Lewis, so he is only a side note like Laplace.
If this much power were to be exerted, there would certainly have been restrictions.
‘… … ‘Are you doing your best for Lorelai?’
When Shin Yu-seong asked a question in his mind, Chronoa just smiled.
[yes. I paid a very high price. I may never be able to talk to Lorelai again.]
The boredom of being alone was okay.
The goddess’s duty is to observe, observe, and adjust the changing world. It was something Chronoa was all too familiar with.
However, unlike herself, who is an infinite being, Lorelai is a finite being. For her, the friendship between a goddess and a human could only be as shallow as a piece of paper.
[My time with Lorelai was truly fun. Lorelai has knowledge comparable to that of a goddess, but her gaze is purer than that of any human.]
But every moment spent with Lorelai was the best for Chronoa.
When we discussed Lorelai’s knowledge, which was hard to believe in a human, and heard her pure opinions, it felt like we had opened our eyes that had been closed for a long time.
‘Then you bought me this time… … .’
A little rebuke and a strong sense of responsibility.
Chronoa, who sensed Shin Yu-seong’s feelings, shook his head and told him not to feel guilty.
[The goddess is not human. We are beings who have to observe the world in infinite time. If you make a friend rather than a contractor, you will most likely not forget it. So this is for me.]
Previously, Chronoa also wanted Lorelai to become his disciple. If she pledged her loyalty through her contract, she would share her time and she could spend more time with Lorelai.
But that wasn’t what Lorelai wanted.
[It would be nice if Lorelai became my follower, but that would obviously be selfish of me. Experiencing this kind of loneliness is harsh for humans.]
Chronoa held Shin Yu-seong’s hand. The sensation he had lost due to her frostbite returned completely, and the pain in his hand was completely cured.
Chronoa stopped the present to change the future. However, it had to be human hands to secure that future.
[Has there ever been a moment when you felt so resentful of the passage of time?]
This concludes the contract.
When Chronoa exhaled, the golden breath lingered on the frozen Lorelai. That was the life Lorelai sacrificed to borrow her power, but it was a meaningless price to Chronoa now.
[Enjoyed. Lorelai.]
The best gift Lorelai gave Chronoa was the perfect entertainment that allowed her to watch her once boring daily life from a human perspective.
[hi. my friend.]
Chronoa placed his golden mana into Lorelai’s hands.
The black and white world has regained color.
Shin Yu-seong muttered as he looked at the ice explosion that hit him.
“Your feelings will have been conveyed.”
The explosion dazzles your eyes. White light floods in. Still, she extends her hand.
Shin Yu-seong’s will, which never gave up, was reached. To protect Lorelai, the goddess strengthened his will. All she had left was stretching out the grip she had in her hands.
Hahahaha!
Seizing the future.
Quang!
White explosions and golden waves intertwine. Wave after wave intertwined, swallowed, and shattered. Will makes miracles happen.
“What have you done-!”
Lewis’ blue eyes were filled with astonishment. You interpreted the nature of mana at the moment of explosion? Plus, she radiated the same wavelength and erased the explosion? There was no way something like that was possible.
Even in the long life of a witch, this is the first miracle she has seen.
Saaa-
But miracles have a price. Her goddess Chronoa’s body became a golden remnant that slowly fluttered away with the wind.
“Chronoa-!”
Lorelai screamed as she stretched out her hand, but there was no turning back. Chronoa just smiled.
“Your sacrifice will never be in vain.”
The opportunity was given.
Shin Yu-seong’s interpretation of the waves of mana meant that he understood the nature of mana, which was the same as finding out what kind of weapon the opponent was using.
On the other hand, Lewis did not know what power Chronoa had given to Shin Yu-seong.
This golden wave was Chronoa’s loneliness. It was her deep mana accumulated while observing the world alone for a long time.
‘I can feel it.’
The power given by Chronoa is the power of ‘strengthening’, a piece of Lorelai. To ignite this ability, a spark called Lorelai was needed.
“Lorelai… … .”
But will Lorelai be able to come to her senses right away after losing her partner named Chronoa? Will she be able to go into battle right away?
Shin Yooseong looked at Lorelai.
Lorelai looked into empty space with an unreadable expression on her face and clenched her fists without saying a word.
“I couldn’t even say my last goodbye. but… … “There is no need to be sad.”

Meeting and parting are inevitable.
“Meeting, parting, and fate are all part of a story. I loved her story.”
Lorelai was not a child to be saddened by separation. She was the pride of England and the oracle of the clock tower.
“so… … I would like to ask you for the second part of the story. “Please give me a great ending on my behalf.”
Lorelai smiled despite the sudden separation. She gave a brief, thank you to her old friend, not her tearful greeting, and she told Shin Yoo-seong about her future.
“Αἰσχύλ.”
A chant taught by Chronoa.
“Σοφοκλ.”
This is her knowledge.
“Εὐριπίδ.”
will.
“Even though she is gone, Chronoa’s power still remains in me. “This is proof that her sculptures have stayed in the world.”
When Lorelai stretched out her hand, the goddess’s protection enveloped Shin Yu-seong. Although it was only for a moment, Shin Yuseong gained Chronoa’s perspective.
Mana bloomed from Shin Yu-seong’s body like the scent of a flower.
I felt a refreshing feeling from the open view, and I could see the flow of mana separated from my body at a glance.
Fighting body type Hwangryonggangshin (黃龍强身)
Due to the changed nature of mana, Shin Yu-seong’s eyes became golden. Instead of the black river flag fluttering roughly, the golden river flag danced as softly as silk.
“… … Well, now I get it. A goddess broke the rules and gave blessings to humans… … . “She is more capricious than a witch.”
Lewis must have finally decided that it was worth dealing with, so he opened up subspace and took out her staff.
“Then it would be polite to do our best here as well.”
Louis, holding the cane, tapped lightly on the ice floor.
That was the omen. Red and blue lines were drawn in the ice cave, which was just a natural object, and began to operate like a huge magic engineering machine.
“If you use the power of the goddess, I also have an arrangement. In the basement of Ruin Castle, the mana and negative emotions stolen from the humans of Volterra lie dormant.”
Lewis used his staff as a straw to absorb the ‘power of negativity’ sleeping underground.
The malice that blossomed from human pain and suffering was the true raw material and power for the Winter Witch, who hated humanity.
“Go to sleep now. “It is winter’s mercy to life that makes the leaves fall and the flowers fall.”
The witch has revealed her true form. Her once bluish hair became perfect silver, and Louise’s blue eyes turned white. It looked like a cold winter.
Nevertheless, Lewis, who had the same face as Adella, recited a technique that Shin Yu-seong had once heard of.
“Aria.”
The wind grew stronger and the broken ice cut the undead into small pieces like the blades of a blender.
“Aria.”
Climax to the snow opera.
The familiar silence and silence that comes for the most heated moments.
Damn it!
The twisted sub-space swallowed Shin Yu-seong. Lewis trapped his opponent and created a sharp ice blade in a space where his mana was extremely compressed.
“… … My ice blade is harder and sharper than any metal. “A human body wouldn’t be able to withstand it.”
Lewis waved his index finger as if stirring black tea with an emotionless face.
“It’s unfortunate. You were quite a likable person. “I wanted to make her a doll.”
In the subspace where Shin Yuseong was trapped, cold ice blades were whirling like a blender. It was impossible for a human to survive an attack that could tear even a crystal golem to pieces in just 10 seconds.
However, when the sub-space opened and Shin Yu-seong appeared, Lewis couldn’t help but smile.
“This is… … .”
Shin Yu-seong’s body, wearing a black uniform and long hair, was clean and without even the slightest scratch.
Even Aden blocked Lewis’ attack without any damage.
“There is no need to be surprised.”
However, Shin Yu-seong felt that all of this was natural.
“Kronoa and Lorelai parted ways for this moment, and conveyed their will to me for the future. … … Still, you didn’t sacrifice anything, right?”
Unlike the noble sacrifices made by Chronoa and Lorelai, Lewis’s power is nothing more than an extortion from the weak. What meaning does he have in the power he has to bully and exploit humans weaker than himself?
“okay. Than you, who gained power by tormenting the weak… … “Adela, who had courage until the end even though she was afraid, is much stronger.”
container-
Shin Yu-seong took his steps lightly.
I saw Lewis’ face in front of me.
I felt my body tremble at the speed that was beyond my limits that I had never experienced before. Everyone’s courage and sacrifice must have been for this moment.
“now… … stop… … .”
Shin Yu-seong stretched out his hand.
The once noble Witch of Winter showed an expression full of despair for the first time.
“You-what-!”
Although a layer of transparent barrier was belatedly built, it shattered as soon as Shin Yu-seong touched it with golden waves.
With the fear he had once felt, Lewis saw the images of Shin Yu-seong and Aden overlap.
Shin Yu-seong glared at Lewis, who was holding his collar, as if he were Aden at that moment.
[Volterra]
“Adela.”
[Give it back.]
“Give it back.”
The hand wrapped in the goddess’s blessing pierced Lewis’ heart.
