3.
The world becomes smaller little by little.
At first out of town. Then to the city.
[The degree of realization of trauma is low.]
[The data cannot be recovered.]
From the outskirts of the city, the corrosive darkness slowly encroached on the streets. Slowly. Procrastination. The darkness was like tentacles that were alive and moving. I decided to call that ominous, dark fog the Void.
“… … “I’m going to school a little early today.”
Many things became invisible. I couldn’t see people’s faces. The church steeple was not visible. I couldn’t see the signs that were stuck together like tree bark in the shopping center.
The world was stained with emptiness.
“I have to go to the farm and feed the rabbits.”
But there are also things that have finally become visible.
“farm?”
“huh. Behind the school… but.”
The Constellation Killer sighed.
“How could a kid like you know? Anyway, there is a place where rabbits are raised and chickens are raised. “I have to feed those kids.”
‘Is there such a place?’
If I recall, there was a place in the orphanage where animals were raised. It disappeared quickly, though. In the past, did middle and high schools have kennels?
“Why are you giving them food? “Shouldn’t there be a separate person in charge?”
“… … Originally there was a breeding department. Why, last year a foreign woman broke into the school at night and jumped to the ground with her newborn baby? The newborn baby ended up in the kennel. “After that incident, applications to join the breeding department suddenly stopped.”
First time ever. However, the Constellation Killer’s tone seemed to be reciting a very famous incident. It seems that various incidents have occurred at this school.
“Why is a foreign woman with a child at a school in another country… .”
“They say the teacher here got into an accident while on a business trip overseas.”
“…….”
“It happened in middle school, not high school.”
The Constellation Killer muttered.
“Anyway, there is no breeding department anymore. The middle school class presidents take turns in charge of the kennel… There’s no way middle school students can faithfully stick to something like this, right? The security guard and I. Some kid in middle school. “We feed the three of us almost like this.”
that… .
It was a corner of the world that I knew nothing about.
farm.
There, rabbits and chickens were trapped in cramped cages, using the limited space as their entire world.
Is it not being managed properly? The smell of chicken and rabbit urine was in the air. The feed that was carelessly poured in large quantities at once got wet in the rain and then dried repeatedly, giving off a bad smell as expected.
“ah. really. “Someone else just pretended to be there.”
The Constellation Killer frowned.
“If this is going to happen, it would be better to skip the person in charge. “It’s worse than not doing it at all.”
“Do you want me to help you?”
“it’s okay. “I have to finish it anyway.”
The Constellation Killer rolled up his sleeves.
“Just stand there. Or you can go to class first.”
The Constellation Killer weeded out a pile of old, rotten-smelling fluff. I threw the straw into a large sack. I brought a broom and rake from the shed and cleaned it up.
It seems like a very familiar task.
The Constellation Killer picked up a rubber hose and sprayed water into the kennel.
Sigh-
In a world where many things were no longer visible, a world rusted into emptiness and narrowed, the water that a high school student had sprinkled at around 6:40 at the back of Shinseo Middle and High School scattered to smithereens. It was quiet. The water resembles the color of dawn.
“…….”
I was peeping at a scene unfolding in a gap in the world.
[It’s really dirty.]
[It’s dirtier than math school, what happened?]
[You smell really bad.]
The world.
It gets narrower little by little.
[The degree of realization of trauma is low.]
Starting with things that are meaningless to the Constellation Killer, no, to ■■. Step by step.
[The data cannot be recovered.]
The mountains surrounding the city were shrouded in dark fog. This world is under siege. As each day passed, the void became tighter and tighter.
Roads and roads were cut off.
-■■, ■■ ■!
-■■■.
Ghosts continued to appear and disappear along the broken road. It blinked. Where people come from and where they go are not important in the [Constellation Killer’s world].
In this world, humans were not characters.
Weeds were coiled in the gaps between the sidewalk blocks on the side of the road.
[The degree of realization of trauma is low.]
In one corner of the garbage dump, a ginkgo tree that had not yet been cut down was bent over.
[The degree of realization of trauma is low.]
In the evening, there was a red glow.
[The degree of realization of trauma is low.]
Finally, the void completely surrounded the school.

“…….”
Raviel was standing at the school gate.
It was pitch black beyond the school gate.
“Raviel.”
School dismissal time.
Facing the void in front of her where the ghosts walked and were absorbed, Raviel silently stopped. Raviel did not turn his head even though I called him.
“okay. “I felt something was wrong.”
Just a soft whisper.
“If you think about it, asking to be called by a foreign name was a strange thing in itself. Bancia. That’s the name given to me. But for some reason, I was caught up in an obsession-like feeling that I had to be called [Raviel].”
“…….”
“More than anything, I can’t remember how I ended up meeting you. no. The expression that it cannot be recalled can be misleading. I received a confession from you at the school festival last year. Even before that, I had feelings for you and had feelings for you. “We became friends easily.”
Raviel looked back at me.
“But I wonder if that is true. Confucius. The love between you and me is not like that. “We never love easily.”
“…….”
“Kiss me. right now.”
I carefully placed my hand on Raviel’s shoulder. I grabbed Raviel’s chin with my left hand, slightly lowered his head, and kissed his lips.
“hmm. also.”
Raviel smiled.
“My heart is pounding.”
She smoothed my earlobe.
“There are no lies in my love. Just because you’re handsome and good at speaking, there’s no way I’ll love you this much. But at best, they are the couple of the century in the history of Shinseo Middle and High School… . Tell them to get rid of it. “You and I are the strongest in the entire universe.”
“… … yes.”
“If my love was not false, my memories would most likely be distorted. Now this is either a hallucination or a dream. Confucius. Am I dreaming of you? “Are you dreaming of me?”
“I am dreaming of Raviel.”
“Hoo. really. “It’s amazing.”
Raviel bent her fingers and stroked her chin.
Not her chin, but mine.
“I will be your only lover.”
“yes.”
“Even if it’s a dream, even if it’s just a dream, I deserve to always be in the place of the one you love. “Only I deserve that position.”
“That’s right.”
“I praise you. my lover “You really love me.”
Raviel laughed.
“Now close your eyes.”
“…….”
“Never open your eyes. Call my name with your lips. Do you understand? You must never open your eyes. “If you open your eyes arbitrarily, I will scold you.”
I closed my eyes.
“Raviel.”
“okay.”
“Raviel… … Ivansia. “It is the name of the person I love.”
and.
The hand stroking my chin disappeared.
“…….”
I opened my eyes.
Raviel was not there.
“………….”
I didn’t see it collapsing into a shadow.
Until the last moment.
That was Ivansia’s method.
[The degree of realization of trauma is low.]
[The data cannot be recovered.]
Raviel’s breath is no longer here.
The world has become a little smaller.
-Ding, dong, ding, dong.
The speakers installed on campus rang.
A member of the broadcasting club who did not know his name and lost his form spoke.
-■■■ ■■ ■■ ■■■■■ ■■■■■ ■■■■■■.
The Broadcasting Department will inform all students remaining on campus.
-■■■■■■■ ■■ ■■■ ■■■■ ■■ ■■■ ■■ ■■■■■■ ■■■■.
Except for students who will be studying independently at night, please leave school now.
That moment.
The void lurking beyond the school gate stirred and overflowed.
Just like a river that suddenly swells due to a flood overflows.
“hmm.”
I took a step back. Tentacle-like rays of fog stretched out from the void. The stems instantly entangled the school gate. The name plate that said [Sinseo High School] was eaten away, and soon the entire school gate was engulfed in darkness.
‘It’s finally falling apart.’
The world of trauma began to collapse.
“—What are you doing there?”
Someone said behind my back. It was the Constellation Killer. The Constellation Killer was wearing a tattered bag and was looking at me strangely.
“Aren’t you leaving school? Well, don’t do it if you don’t want to do it. I was already uncomfortable with the fact that I was slowly getting noticed by your parents. I know you sincerely want to apologize to me, so let’s stop now. like this. “It just makes us feel weird.”
The Constellation Killer walked towards the place where the school gate was. As he was about to pass by me, I grabbed the Constellation Killer’s wrist. And he yanked.
“ouch. oh! what? What!”
By a narrow margin, the Constellation Killer did not step into the void. Even now, black fog was constantly flowing over the school gate, over the fence, and into the playground. If I am swallowed up by [that], everything will end.
“Follow me for a moment.”
“also? “Where are you going this time?”
“A place where you can live a little longer. A place where you can breathe.”
“… … what?”
“It’s already dangerous here. “Let’s move quickly.”
I dragged the Constellation Killer across the campus.
The void encroached on the school as if it was chasing us.
“… … I do not know what I mean. Gongja Kim. Do you know that things have been so strange since a month ago? Why are you so scared? What on earth are you trying so hard to do? “You weren’t that kind of person to begin with.”
“I promised to live desperately no matter what happens. My teacher swung his sword even when the world was destroyed. My lover protected the country even when the world repeated itself. There are people like that in the world. “I try my best because I want to be with people like that.”
“Really, really, I have no idea what you’re talking about.”
“There were people who devoted themselves to what they thought was right, even to the point of endlessly abandoning themselves.”
We entered the campus.
The void still surged in without stopping.
“…….”
Imamangryang was walking around in the hallway. However, only one of them, the [class president] with the face of the Black Dragon Lord, was standing blankly in front of the women’s bathroom. The class leader was someone I had not yet torn down.
because.
In the last trauma, when the Constellation Killer jumped to his death, the class president was the only student who lowered his head.
“… … It’s strange. “Why do I feel a strange sense of guilt when I go into the women’s bathroom?”
The Black Dragon Master seemed to be suddenly worried about his s*xual identity. It was also a time when he had a lot to worry about. I approached while holding the Constellation Killer’s wrist, and also grabbed the Black Dragon Master’s wrist with my free hand.
“huh?”
“You follow me too. “You shouldn’t be here right now.”
“what? Oh, wait. uh? what? Gongja Kim? Oh, what now… … ?!”
The Black Dragon Master was embarrassed and resisted, but suddenly discovered the Constellation Killer. The surprised expression immediately hardened. The Black Dragon Master narrowed his eyes, lowered his head, and was dragged along by me.
[warning!]
[The degree of realization of trauma is low.]
[The data cannot be recovered.]
[Trauma cannot be maintained.]
The void sank the first floor of the school.
I dragged the two people up the stairs. fast. I jumped over the first floor, jumped up the second floor, passed the third floor, crossed the fourth floor, and ran up the fifth floor. The Constellation Killer and the Black Dragon Master were panting behind them, but there was nothing they could do.
The void was filling up with terrifying force.
[■■■ ■■■♪]
[■■■ ■■■♪]
[■■■ ■■■■♪]
The motto on the stairs was sunken. The black fog turned into a dark water surface and engulfed the first, second, third, fourth, and fifth floors.
There is only one place left in this world.
“Huh huh… Huh… .”
“eww. Ugh, I’m feeling nauseous… .”
I stood in front of the iron door on the rooftop. There were four layers of locks surrounding the iron door handle. It is probably a place where you cannot enter unless you are a teacher or teacher. However, I raised the aura from my fingers and simply cut the chain.
“Let’s go out.”
“uh… ?”
The Constellation Killer, who was panting, looked blankly at the iron door.
“It’s open… ?”
“Now, wait a minute. We can’t go up on the roof! “It’s against the school rules!”
The Black Dragon Master shouted in embarrassment. If the void wasn’t looming over her shoulder, I might have respected the school rules a little more. I forced the Constellation Killer and the Black Dragon Master halfway to the rooftop and then—.
thud.
The iron door was closed.
“…….”
I quietly stared at the iron door. It was quiet. Fortunately, the void did not invade the rooftop. Perhaps it is only a brief moment of peace, but for now we have escaped the flood of emptiness.
“good. “It will be okay for a while.”
“What makes it okay?!”
The Black Dragon Master went berserk and ran wild.
“Don’t you know how sensitive our school is to rooftop access?! That mess happened in the middle school last year! oh my god!”
“I said it’s okay.”
“Ah, if the teachers find out I’m here… My body… You bastard! “Take responsibility for my college entrance exam!”
The world was completely enveloped in emptiness.
Looking down through the rooftop fence, the playground was completely empty and only black darkness spread out. Correction too. The middle school main building is right across the street.
Only three people remain in this trauma.
“Class monitor.”
“why!”
“I knew what was going on in our class.”
“…….”
Three remaining.
attacker.
victim.
“… … so?”
Lastly, bystanders.
The class leader with the face of the Black Dragon Master glared at me.
“Do you have something to say to me?”
etc,
