Episode 548
I opened my eyes.
I understood everything.
Actually, I had a guess. No matter how much I thought about it, the Ragnarok before my eyes was not something that could turn back time.
Ragnarok is not the one who can turn back time. He may have the power to do so, but he is not the one who can do it.
It was simple, just looking at how he spent thousands of years sleeping.
But it was a fact that time had turned back.
Then who turned it?
Either Ragnarok or my past self. There was a high probability that it would be one of the two, but if Ragnarok happens, then of course there would only be one left.
I have no memories of being a Death Knight.
All the reasons why they shared some memories and did not, despite being the same being but different beings, have now been revealed.
My past self intended all of this.
I set the stage so that I could protect my teacher, stimulate my curiosity, and help me grow further.
It wasn’t unpleasant. If it were me, it would have been enough.
I sympathized and understood.
However, even the Death Knight probably didn’t expect this.
As luck would have it, when this door opened, all sentient beings from both the Western and Eastern Continents learned of my relationship with the Master.
You watched the whole process of time being turned back.
To be honest, it feels a little, just a little bit awkward.
Now there is only one thing I have to do.
Kill that bastard in front of me and hug my woman who is still crying.
I raised my head.
“… … He was a great man.”
[I never asked you to write a review.]
“What can I do? I’m being sincere.”
Even to me, it seemed sincere.
Ragnarok looks around.
“After all, all of this has already happened… … That’s the story.”
[… … .]
“If I fight you like this, I’ll die. What do you think?”
When Ragnarok asked me what I thought, I gave a clear answer.
[I’ll fall behind. Without any changes.]
Ragnarok bursts into laughter.
Then he stretched out his hand. A black space opened up in front of him. Tsk tsk.
It was a subspace. A piece of armor emerged from it and began to be equipped on Ragnarok’s body.
The appearance was very unusual. First of all, it was all red.
There was a face painted right in the center of the red armor.
It wasn’t a human face. It was a black monster with an open mouth.

It was just like the devil.
The top and bottom are complete, and a gauntlet comes out from within.
It was similar to the gauntlet called Fury that Menama had made for me.
He looked at me blankly and asked.
[What are you doing?]
“What do you want to do, too?”
[what?]
Ragnarok answered my question with a different tone.
“You don’t want me to run away, do you?”
hmm.
[Run away?]
“No. I don’t know what you think, but I’m not running away.”
[… … .]
“Even if I die, I will die with dignity. Wouldn’t it be satisfying if the biggest boulder blocking your life was that big?”
I took it to mean that I wanted to be an extra with some weight, rather than just an ordinary extra.
Ragnarok reached out again. Something wrapped in cloth was sucked out of his subspace.
What could it be?
As soon as I thought about it, the cloth was spread out. There were five dried pieces of paper in total.
“Have you ever heard of something called graphite?”
If you’re talking about graphite, you’re talking about cigarettes. I’ve never smoked one, but I’ve heard of it. It’s classified as a type of drug. It looks like this Ragnarok wants to smoke a cigarette.
He put one in his mouth and threw the remaining four at me.
“Have a smoke.”
[I quit smoking.]
Hehe, Ragnarok, who was laughing, lit the cigarette in his mouth. Crackle.
Black smoke was rising. It wasn’t some kind of energy or anything. It was literally black smoke.
“… … It brings back old memories. Asura was the one who first offered me these cigarettes.”
[… … .]
“At first I thought they put poison in it. But they just smoked it. I thought it didn’t matter if they put poison in it.”
He stared blankly, then put one of the four remaining graphite candles in his mouth and put three of them into the subspace.

He lit it by snapping his fingers.
Chijik.
I’ve never smoked graphite, but I’ve smoked cigarettes.
I inhaled the smoke familiarly.
Ragnarok continues.
“You won’t end up like me.”
[… … .]
“The path that led you here is different. What you lose is death, and what you gain is the whole world… … ? That’s amazing.”
[… … .]
“Amazing. Do you feel the overlap between that ‘Jack Valantier’ and your current power?”
[what?]
“That you are getting stronger now.”
I didn’t bother answering because it’s true.
Jack Valantie, a former Death Knight, turned back time. His existence was erased, but his thoughts are embedded in my soul. The white door in my chest was gradually disappearing, and as Ragnarok said, it was overlapping.
Enlightenment and power, it’s all overlapping.

Ragnarok is just staring at it now. It’s a bit difficult to see it as the composure of a strong person. If we’re going to fight, let’s just fight with all our might.
“Interesting. Seriously, I find you interesting.”
[so?]
“It doesn’t really mean anything. It just is.”
Ragnarok laughs heartily.
He asked me with a smile.
“What would happen if I engraved that formula into my heart?”
I ended up laughing too.
[Just give it a try.]
At those words, Ragnarok bursts into laughter once more.
“As you said, I have always been afraid of death. Ironically, I wanted to die while being afraid. I am different from you, so I will probably never become like you.”
That is definitely true.
If dogs and cows were like me, they would all go crazy when I made the Death Knight. Ragnarok smoked his cigarette in silence. He smoked like that for a while and then looked up at the sky.
“… … The weather is nice.”
He looks at me as he shakes off the graphite.
“You said you would protect the world.”
[That’s right.]
“Then just watch for a moment. If you don’t kill me here, the world will fall apart that day.”
There’s nothing new about it. Ragnarok and I are on different paths. What we pursue is different, what we want is different, and our beliefs and thoughts are different.
Actually, it’s strange that it’s the same.
How big is the age difference?
Ragnarok smiles as if he has put everything down.
“Let’s start now.”
Now the conversation was meaningless.
It is a fight between those who want to protect and those who want to destroy. The winner takes everything. After destroying the graphite in his hand, he kicked the spot. Ragnarok also kicked the spot.
Kwaaaaang-!!
* * *
The loud noise continued without pause.
The sound of Jack and Ragnarok fighting in the middle of the Black Sea reverberated throughout both continents without a single exaggeration.
The sky falls, the sea splits, and volcanoes erupt from the ocean.
The perception changed and both continents shook like crazy.
This was not a fight between humans. It was truly a fight between gods.
The fight lasted a long time. Two hours, eight hours, twelve hours. Twenty-four hours, forty-eight hours.
People on both continents prayed.
It was a little different from the meaning of good and evil. I just wanted to cheer them on. Because everyone thought that the world Jack created would be better than the world Ragnarok created.
Additionally, it demonstrated overwhelming power that could turn back time.
Jack is the one who brought the dead back to life.
I didn’t know until now, but now I know. So, of course, it’s right to root for Jack and hope for him.

Valentine was one of them. He knelt down and held both hands together.
I’ve never experienced anything like this in my life.
Not for a single moment has Valentine ever relied on anyone.
Because Valentine of the past was a person who was dependent on others, not someone who depended on others.
Of course, I didn’t believe in the existence of God.
Now I just wished.
I hope Jack comes back.
I hope you win.
I hope my disciple, my man, returns safely.
The deafening noise lasted for nearly 100 hours. The sun rose and set continuously.
So on the fifth day, the loud noise stopped.
There was a crescent moon in the sky.
Everyone looks at the sky.
There was a man blocking out the moonlight.
The clothes he was wearing were a mess, but he was recognizable enough.
Two eyes tinted black.
Light was streaming from those eyes.
Everyone holds their breath at those eyes that are filled with moonlight, those mysterious eyes that contain the full moon.
It was Jack.
Jack won.
As always, we won.
There was no cheering.
There were people from the Western Continent who wanted to scream at any moment, but no one said anything.
Even the sound of breathing was killed.
It was the same with Cell, it was the same with Charlotte, it was the same with Thanos, it was the same with Ron, it was the same with Yuseul, it was the same with Elizabeth, it was the same with Aveiro.
All the leaders of the alien races in the Forest of Demons, Harold Lynch and Roland Lynch, and General Rommel.
I thought I shouldn’t interfere. Everyone thought so.
Who started all this? For whom was all this done?
There is no one who does not know it now. Silence falls on the entire continent.
Ugh.
The emperor of the Western Continent, Jack Milos, has descended upon the earth.
There was a woman kneeling before him, holding both hands together. A woman with black hair.
Jack’s hands wrap around hers.
It was soft. A smile was drawn.
[I’m back, Master.]
She opens her eyes.

Tears flowed down. Valentine hugged Jack while crying.
Only then did cheers erupt.
* * *
The Master’s tears soaked his shoulders. He was crying like a child. He swept his back.
I was about to ask why she was crying so much, but I stopped myself because I could feel her emotions.
The teacher was very happy now.
That’s fine.
I tightened my grip on the hand that was holding my teacher. I will never let go.
What happened after that was natural.
First of all, the bonds of the soul engraved in the Master’s heart were broken. The Master, who goes back and forth between the doll and the human, is no longer there.
It is a return from an imperfect human being whose soul was out of balance to a perfect human being.
“Ah… … Ahh… … .”
The voice was still the same, but this one sounded better.
The hand of the Master who is embracing me feels strong.
Thank you, that feeling was conveyed.
I know I’m great.
He made the Master human and I became a monster.
The power contained in the words themselves will also change.
like this.
[Master.]
“… … .”
He just cried silently. He smiled softly.
[I think something big has happened]
Only then did the Master stop crying. He asked in an anxious tone.
“… … What’s wrong? Are you feeling unwell? No way… … .”
I felt like he was going to ask, “Is it going to disappear?” I ended up laughing again.
[No, I just wanted to live a long life.]
The teacher kept his mouth shut. He knew that a serious conversation was about to take place.
[I wanted to live a long time with the teacher.]
“… … .”
[I wanted to find a way to extend the life of the Master and live together with him by extending his life.]
“……however?”
[I think I’ve grown too much.]
“It’s grown? What does that mean?”
It’s simple. It’s in context.
[I could live a thousand years, or I could live ten thousand years.]
“… … .”
[If you don’t block out your senses, you can feel everything in the world. From Yu Seol-ha worrying about Ron right now to the fisherman dropping the bottle of alcohol he was holding in the port at the end of the Western Continent. You can feel everything.]
“Does that mean God has become like this?”
[Honestly, I don’t know. I don’t think anyone can use this kind of power. How many people can reach my current level? I don’t think there will be any in the future. Yes. It’s like becoming a god.]
I’ve grown too much. I used to say, almost like a mantra, that I wouldn’t die unless I wanted to die, and in a slightly different sense, that really happened.
I could live a thousand years, ten thousand years, or even a hundred thousand years. Beyond the limits of the body, the limits of the cell, the limits of the species, and beyond those limits. I’ve grown too big.
I took the teacher away for a moment.
I should have done it from the beginning. I shouldn’t have wasted time. If I wanted to cherish every moment, I should have clearly conveyed my feelings to the Master. It’s just that it’s a little late.

[Would you like to live with me?]
“… … .”
[Will you live with me until I have no more attachment to life, until I see the end of love?]
It was a proposal of sorts. Let’s live together, love each other until we have no more attachment to life, and then die together.
I was talking about the ending. A smile appeared on the Master’s lips.
“You talk from beginning to end.”
[… … .]
“Our life is just beginning.”
I ended up laughing.
“Let’s be together until you want to die.”
It was something I had waited for for so long and hoped for for so long.
“And, I guess I should name him Daniel.”
I opened my eyes slightly wide.
I had this conversation with my teacher before.
If it’s a son, it’s Daniel, if it’s a daughter, it’s Agnes.
This was so simple.
Before fighting Ragnarok, I had s*x with my master. That’s when I got pregnant.
A boy.
The Master cups my face with both hands and places his lips on mine.
I accepted it with a smile.
We talked about how much we loved each other, how much we loved each other madly. We conveyed everything without even saying a word.
I finally found some rest in my life.
