The Portman family’s mansion was in complete disarray due to the sudden explosion.
The good news is that no one lost their life in an unexpected accident.
In fact, it was possible because the Seolyeong Knights responded quickly and resolved the accident.
Everyone in the mansion knew it.
This was because the knights had piled up the corpses of the assailants wearing stealth suits in the garden.
“What the hell is this… .”
Rdio muttered in a bewildered tone.
The workers in the garden huddled together and looked at the mountain of corpses with frightened faces.
“Hey, vice-captain. “What on earth is going on?”
“As you can see, it is an attack. “I’ve just finished sorting things out, so please calm down the employees first.”
Ricky spoke with as much knightly expression as he could, but the workers could hardly calm down.
The reasons were varied.
I was shocked by the attack, which I had never experienced before, was appalled by the pile of raw corpses, and was anxious that I might be attacked by a stranger who entered the room and was not caught.
Ricky didn’t know that either.
It’s just that the workers gathered in front of the corpse are embarrassed.
It was the moment when a sigh came out of his mouth.
thud-!
Suddenly, a person landed in the garden with a loud noise.
At that moment, the space froze.
This was because the person who appeared was a man who was both very familiar to them and also unfamiliar to them.
“Well, master… ?”
Rdio spoke in a voice filled with doubt.
At that, Elric raised his head.
The workers trembled in horror.
The thick scent of blood was wafting, a cloth was wrapped around its torn belly, and its body was full of all kinds of hideous wounds and flowing blood.
The face was the same too. The bright red eyes and blood-stained face were a far cry from the Elric Portman they knew.
A murderer.
His appearance was so hideous that everyone who saw him instinctively thought of that word.
Elric raised his head and looked at Ricky.
He became even more stiff than the others and was trembling and taking steps backwards with a pale face.
“Go, let’s go…” .”
“Madam.”
Elric spoke in a cracked voice.
“Where is your wife?”
The blood-soaked blade shone coolly under the moonlight.
Ricky swallowed dry saliva and answered.
“Chi, you’re in the bedroom.”
Elric did not answer.
He just walked steadily towards the front door.
The employees instinctively retreated to make way, just like the nobles at the banquet hall.
No one could open their mouths until he disappeared from sight.
*
Elric arrived in front of the bedroom and stopped for a moment.
I felt two presences inside.
be used to. One is Tyria, one is Danal.
As I was standing still, the door was first opened from the inside.
“Oh, are you here?”
Day by day, I bowed my head deeply.
“Ma’am, because you’re about to go out. Now, now, faint for a moment… I ordered it… .”
Elric’s gaze was focused on Tyria.
Elric, who roughly understood the cause and effect from what he heard, tapped Danal on the shoulder.
Every time, it’s like a day! Hike! I made a sound, but I couldn’t pay attention to it.
“Good job. “Would you please leave for a moment?”
“Yes, yep!”
Day by day, he disappeared without a sound.
Elric closed the door.
Tyria was lying on the bed with her eyes closed.
I felt a little anxious.
That feeling of anxiety, wondering what would happen if I couldn’t breathe.
“… ma’am.”
I raised my voice.
As I approached and looked, I saw my chest heaving under the dim lighting.
Only at that moment did Elric feel relieved.
That was the reason why the body collapsed.
dump-
Elric barely leaned against the bed and let out a long breath.
I express gratitude to a God whose existence I doubt even exists.
As the overwhelming anxiety subsides, pain takes over.

As I frown and bear it, I find myself thinking about my teacher.
He was the situation, and he was Geomje.
Raising myself was for a purpose.
There was something that came to mind before such fragmentary information.
‘… ‘I didn’t use my hands directly.’
I couldn’t find any trace of him all the way from Wivin Street through the village to here.
Contrary to his assurances, he only used a means called Wolyeong, and it was clear that he did not even come near Wibin.
We saw in the newspaper that Disha was put at the feet of the situation, so it is no wonder that Wolyoung made a move.
Just one thing to realize.
‘… I guess it doesn’t matter anyway. A land like this.’
He ultimately achieved his goal in some form or another.
His purpose was to lead himself into battle.
If Wolyeong had devastated the entire Wibin, he would have headed to the battlefield to seek revenge.
He stopped it, but after he pulled out the sword himself and revealed himself to be Kashyap, he couldn’t remain here like before.
I have no regrets as it was a situation that could not be rational.
But my heart felt like it was being squeezed.
Elric raised his hand.
It’s full of blood.
My nose was already numb from the scent of blood.
When I look up, I see a pure white Tyria.
I couldn’t bear to reach out.
The moment he confirmed himself, Elric suddenly felt something split apart.
‘ah… .’
Suddenly, Elric burst out laughing.
Even as he did so, his expression was distorted viciously.
It was such an expression that it would be correct to say that the incontinence on the face happened to take the shape of a smile.
Enlightenment occurred.
‘That’s why it was frustrating.’
Ever since I decided to stay in Wibin, I felt uncomfortable somewhere inside.
I felt like there was a thorn stuck in my throat, and every time I tried to turn away from the battlefield, my entire body felt itchy and stinging.
I was always curious as to why I did that, but what it really was was regret.
‘I shouldn’t have come here in the first place.’
I shouldn’t have come here with these bloody hands, feet, and steps.
This can only lead to giving this land as food to wolves drawn by the scent of blood.
Will this be the end?
No, I can definitely say that this is the beginning.
One way or another, the rumor will spread.
If he were to remain here, many people who remember the Sword Demon Kasha would target Wibin.
Even if we stop them, the unstoppable one will target this place once again.
– Throw away everything you are carrying. Walk with only murderous intent. Come, I will wait on the throne.
Again and again, all he wanted was to return to the battlefield.
There was no way Daum would be as generous as he is now.
‘Virtually a hostage.’
Wivin and Tyria were alive, but they were already dead.
It will continue to be so as long as you are here.
Elric sat down and hugged his head.
My head was so hot that I scratched my scalp.
I thought as I gritted my teeth.
Where did it go wrong?
Decided to take up permanent residence?
Do you have feelings for her?
Did you return to Weibin before that?
‘no.’
It wasn’t.
There was a more fundamental problem than that.
Elric finally gave an answer.
It was an answer I knew from the beginning but had ignored.
‘… Ever since I left for the battlefield.’
It all went wrong from there.
It was at that point that Elric Portman, who missed this place, was no longer Elric Portman.
Suddenly, tears flowed.
The tears were soaked in blood because they could not flow cleanly.
It soaked the floor red.
‘I am… .’
Maybe I was living in an illusion.
The illusion that you can go back to those days when you come here.
Today’s event marked the end of that illusion.
Now I realize that Kasha shouldn’t miss Yubin.
You can’t help but look at the idyllic scenery, leisurely atmosphere and golden wheat fields.
You shouldn’t miss the sound of laughter, people’s body heat, and a warm table.
You should not harbor the desire to love someone and remain by their side.
Even so, he couldn’t become Elric Portman.
It was just Kasha, a sword demon imitating Elric Portman.
Elric Portman and Sword Demon Kasha had already become very different people.
“Huh… .”
Elric covered his face.
I don’t think anything has changed.
I just struggled to survive for 10 years, but everything changed.
When I admitted that fact, I felt like something inside me was falling apart.
While Elric was breathing heavily, he found Tyria asleep between his hands.
As expected, it was very white.
As Elric stared at it, fear suddenly filled him.
I have always lived to die.
We have lived to take away, and we have also lived to throw away.
So I didn’t know.
The anxiety of losing something precious can drive people so crazy.
Just the thought of destroying the things I love with my own hands fills me with a far-off fear.
What if the day comes that I live to see her body?
Only when my thoughts soared did I make a decision.
I was only able to do that after slipping like this.
‘ah… .’
I had to leave.
What I thought was a crossroads was originally a single road with only one side open.
Elric’s expression fell.
