Chapter 57 – 57. Counseling
“… … .”
Since when did it start?
This girl in front of her began to collapse under her burden.
I daresay.
A bright girl would have realized from a very young age the weight of the burden the world placed on her.
That’s why the girl created another version of herself.
Having nothing else.
It only removes the pride and responsibility that should be had as a member of the royal family.
If you asked me how that was possible, I couldn’t explain it either.
However, just as it is impossible to explain the principles of mana spread across the continent.
Just like we can’t completely uncover the dreams we always have in our deep sleep.
Just as a priest who always kneels and prays cannot understand God’s will.
It was a mental problem that could not be explained with any logic.
But one thing is clear, it also meant that the girl was pushed to the point where she wouldn’t have been able to endure it otherwise.
“Eleanor was always working hard.”
Even in her dreams, she seemed to fall asleep while studying in order to appear proud as a princess.
Even when she couldn’t sleep for fear of nightmares, she naturally sat at the head of her desk and tracked the progress.
But there was something strange about that appearance.
She tried to acquire the basics of being a princess, but from what she said, she didn’t seem very interested in it.
This figure stands out in the questions people always ask me about animation characters.
“Eleanor knew that she had no pride or responsibility as a royal.”
At my words, Eleanor, who was full of royal pride and pride, flinched.
“I guess that’s why I tried harder. “Because she was a good girl, she tried to force herself to change.”
“… … .”
“But actually it was the opposite. “She was so aware of her royal duties and it ruined her that she took it out on her own.”
Without anything else.
A being with only royal responsibilities remaining.
This was the identity of Eleanor in front of me right now.
A cold wind blows.
She closes her eyes for a moment, tastes it, and nods her head slowly, as if even that is a truly valuable experience for her.
“Yes, that’s right. “I am the person responsible for the duties that Eleanor set aside in order to survive.”
“… … .”
“Because I was capable. “It’s amazing that I was able to completely remove the burden of royal duties.”
She declares confidently and boldly. It is assumed that this may be the reason for the lack of basic knowledge or creativity.
It must have been a lack of basic knowledge because it was really stripped down to only the necessary parts.
“But. In the end, I am also a person. Even if the child has forgotten, I am also Eleanor and I have no choice but to grow over time.”
Even though she is separated from her royal duties, Eleanor continues to grow.
The burden of being a royal has disappeared.
On the contrary, Eleanor began to feel stressed again as to why she had no sense of duty as a royal.
“It’s funny, right? “Due to the excessive stress at the time, I lost the memory of having developed a new personality, and was following a similar path again.”
In conclusion, Eleanor was an imperfect person.
Because he was so sincere and was able to see himself so objectively.
The standards you set for yourself continue to bind and pressure you.
“If we continue like this, we will end up in the same situation again. So, I have decided, I will take over the body.”
Not a good or weak personality.
As a royal, you are in a position to rule, take responsibility, and reign.
“Is that why I tried to change the dream to be as similar to reality as possible?”
“Yes, that’s right. “If I was out, I needed a place for him to be.”
So, I tried to create a new world using dreams as a medium.
A world where the fragile but sincere Eleanor can be completely happy.
“That’s why I tried to make it look like a nightmare. “Because he won’t accept this situation of putting his burden on me.”
Eleanor shrugged her shoulders and spoke calmly, but the mood immediately changed.
“But you ruined everything.”
Eleanor’s finger pokes my chest.
Her eyes were filled with deep resentment and skepticism.
“I know that? Because of that damn monster called Mac, my other personality completely disappeared. “Without a trace, neatly.”
“… … .”
“Our beliefs clashed over the concept of eating nightmares. “Because I won because I had stronger convictions in my body’s leadership!”
puck!
Now I hit him hard in the chest with my fist. But it didn’t hurt.
In fact, her face is distorted as if it hurts more when she hit her.
“and! “Because that child himself has admitted that he is worse than me!”
“… … .”
“So it’s gone!”
The voice did not waver at all. A story that contains resentment but no regrets.
The small tears that had welled up have already disappeared.
Eleanor declared with an expression as cold as the cold night air.

“It worked out better. “If you’re a royal, you have to be able to cut off your own weakness.”
“… … .”
“Because that’s my position. Because we must prioritize the kingdom over the existence of Eleanor. “If it’s natural, it’s natural.”
Eleanor says she doesn’t want to talk to me anymore and turns around to face the balcony railing.
There was no weakness in her now, so there was actually room to view her better than the original Eleanor.
Now I won’t be shaken anymore.
You won’t even have doubts about yourself.
By becoming a leader with leadership, you will easily obtain the position of president of the academy.
and.
By inciting students, they will sow the seeds of rebellion.
She will be obsessed with the belief that she can rule the kingdom much better than her brother, King Orpheus.
At first glance, the current Eleanor appears to be driven by a sense of duty as a royal.
Actually, that’s not it.
They are just clinging to their sense of duty as royals.
Because that’s all there is.
Probably, the girl I met in the game was the same person she is now.
As she planned, the weak Eleanor, unable to distinguish between dreams and reality, would have lived there forever.
In the end, it will be a story that ends with Arias being killed by Arias, a classmate.
“In creating the Mac, we had to grasp several concepts.”
Unfortunately, I don’t really like seeing the same ending.
“what?”
Eleanor glares at me with a frown, asking what I’m saying out of the blue.
He tried to kick me out, saying I didn’t want to talk, but I kept saying what I wanted to say.
“Because there were too many difficulties to simply capture the nightmare-eating monster. “I started with the feeling of creating a new animal from scratch.”
It was convenient to think that I was compiling a set of settings for a monster called Mac.
However, it needed to be done in a very detailed and realistic way, like a god creating animals.
It’s not just about having an elephant’s trunk.
How an elephant moves its trunk, what its habits are, whether it has bones inside it, muscle mass and length, etc.
We created Mac in a variety of ways and details.
The most important part was eating dreams.
Yeah, everyone was focused on that.
But I was the opposite.
I cared about what happened after eating the dream.
Because at the time, when I didn’t know that I had a dual personality, I wondered if there really was an evil spirit that I couldn’t see.
Because I expected a little bit.
Eleanor’s eyes widen when she hears my story. Even if she wanted to hide it, she couldn’t hide the growing anticipation.
“It might not be a very pleasant story for a princess, but when animals eat something, they have to excrete it.”
Slowly, I take out a small sphere.
“It’s a fragment of the nightmare Mac left behind. However, Mac could digest nightmares, not personality.”
I’m glad that what Mac ate wasn’t a nightmare. No matter how many situations I prepared for, I couldn’t even consider the situation where eating is a personality trait.
“then… … .”
“She’s still in here.”
Eleanor is looking at me blankly. Now it was her turn to choose.
Considering her position as a princess, it would be right for her to remain as she is now.
He is an object of envy among the people of the Griffin Kingdom, and is capable of turning students into rebels with just his charisma.
In fact, if Aria Rias had not stopped her, her coup might have ended successfully.
In some ways, returning to the original could be seen as an act of abandoning one’s royal duties and ignoring the expectations of the people.
But Eleanor was not in conflict for long.
He confidently nods his head with an expression that says he will not regret his choice for a single moment.
The only thing I didn’t bother to say was that I retained my qualities as a princess until the very end.
It was a kind of courage that for the first time put herself above her position as a princess.
“good night.”
That’s why, along with the Mac fragment I’m holding in my hand, I take out a black gem from my pocket.
It was the stone of death, Lemegeton.
“that… … .”
“Pretend you didn’t see it.”
I raise my mana by giving him some attention for no reason. Eleanor is acting confident, but she asks if she is a little nervous.
“But is it really possible? Wouldn’t it be better to ask the Archmage?”
“That’s funny.”
It was actually funny.
Who on earth are you putting in front of and who are you going to ask for?
When I first met Eleanor, there was something I asked the dark spirit.
Is there a way to enter a dream?
And at that time, the dark spirit answered like this.
[Is there one? Although it is possible to communicate between souls, entering a dream is probably impossible.]
Yes, dreams are impossible.
“Does this seem like dealing with dreams?”
A personality, not a dream.
So, it is about dealing with the soul.
A situation where the girl’s split soul must be stitched back together.
And this was surprisingly my area of expertise.
“Don’t forget who I am.”
The being that comes closest to the border between life and death.
A comforter who communicates with souls and listens to their stories.
“I am a necromancer.”
My mana, Mac fragments, and Lemegeton begin to resonate.
