Episode 259 The truth of the world, your truth, my truth (12)

Jin and Murakan looked at Elona.

“… … Misha is right. It’s not an eternal separation. But I don’t know when Jin can meet Murakan and Misha again, so I feel sorry. Will it take a year, 10 years, or even longer? … “I don’t know.”

From the perspective of beings called immortals and dragons, it is not a very long time. But by human standards, it was a long time.

However, Murakan’s face brightened in an instant and he nodded.

[Whether it’s 1 year or 100 years. Oh, it won’t last 100 years. We’re all going to die of old age. 10 years is fine! Isn’t that right, kid? They say the world will be restored again, so what’s the big deal if we can’t meet by then? Hey, I wasted so much time that only one page was sold!]

It was a sacrifice I had already accepted with the knowledge that we would never meet again.

[For strawberry pie… … Just enjoy life to the fullest and wait a little longer. But if I don’t come back for too long and you find someone better than me, I ask you to get married.]

[Uh, okay. It’s been a while since I said the right thing. That would be a better future for Strawberry Pie. What good does that kid have for being such a bastard?]

[under? Well, yes. What do you know, how can you know what love is? I know you only have dark unrequited love.]

Crack!

In the end, Misha’s fist went out. Murakhan tried to counterattack several times while his jaw was constantly spinning, but the more he tried, the more he was hit with stronger fists.

[Oh, it hurts! It hurts! Well, stop hitting me, I have to go now!]

[Know that the rest will come later.]

We can meet again.

Because there was hope, Jin and his colleagues were not as sad as they were just now. If only we could meet again, anytime, anywhere, in any way.

Still, Jin and his colleagues hugged Murakan and Misha as if they were people they would never see again. Misha frowned, saying it was a bit disgusting, but she didn’t really look disgusted.

[Beradin.]

“Lord Elona… … .”

[I don’t think life is important whether it’s long or short. At least for me it is. There are people who are unhappy even if they enjoy a full life, and there are people who are saved even if they live a fleeting life. I suffered as a monster for a long time, but the short time I lived as a human… … Meeting the head of the family was full of meaning.]

“Then I’m glad. “If you think so.”

[So, if I lose this image scattered throughout the world, don’t be too sad. I, who have become the mountains and fields, the wind and the sea, the land and the sky, will always be there, remembering the time with my family.]

A heavy bursting sound was heard from afar.

It was the sound of the world being destroyed. Huge lands were screaming and splitting apart, and the sea was bubbling and drying up.

The aftermath would soon reach Morganiel’s territory.

[I don’t want to spend the last moments in a messy manner. Now let’s get started. Everyone, please close your eyes and wait quietly.]

People held each other’s hands and closed their eyes. Jin held Murakan’s hand, Murakan reflexively grabbed Misha’s hand, then freaked out and released it to hold Valeria’s hand, Valeria held Dante’s hand, Dante held Siris’ hand, and Siris held Enya’s hand… … .

So everyone was holding hands.

Beradin could not close his eyes and looked at Elona. Elona gently held Beradin’s face in both hands.

I slowly closed his eyes and kissed his forehead.

[Goodbye, Beradin.]

“Goodbye, Lord Elona.”

I wanted to open my eyes again. Then, as she was thinking about whether she was making it even harder for Elona, ​​Vera Dean felt that she could not feel Elona’s palms covering her eyelids.

“ah… … .”

Beradin opened his eyes again and was able to see a lump of solar energy. The solar flag that could be held with both hands was Elona.

The rest was all darkness. It was dark enough to only see the outlines of the people standing right next to him, but someone grabbed Beradin’s hand. It was Enya. Beradin held the sun flag in his arms with his free hand.

Murakan and Misha dispersed into particles and disappeared into the sun. Jin’s hand, which was holding Murakan’s hand, was empty for a moment, but Valeria held it again.

[Jin, show me Shuri.]

Hearing Heluram’s voice, Jin took Shuri out of the red prison without a word.

[meow!]

[When I cursed you with immortality, I wanted to show you eternal darkness. This was the only scene where darkness continued.]

[Mya… … .]

[When the light disappears and all life turns to ashes. I wanted someone to see that. In fact, even I didn’t have the confidence to exist alone in an abyss of nothingness. So I made you not die. When that world comes, I want to spend time with you.]

Shuri noticed that some dark energy was escaping from her. The curse of immortality was being lifted.

[In human language, it could be described as vicious and selfish.]

[Myanana… … .]

Shuri closed her eyes as she felt Heluram’s final touch.

[Animals are foolish and pathetic creatures. Why don’t you avoid my hand? but… … It’s probably not something I can understand. Unlike me, the new owner is kind to you, so enjoy the rest of your life.]

Soon, Heluram also began to lose its shape in the darkness.

She was like a black stream of water, scattering in all directions and flowing into the sun. As time went on, the sun became more and more white.

It became a lump of light. Like the light that first existed in the world in the beginning, it alone illuminated the darkness.

By that point it was so blinding that no one could open their eyes. The demon stone that had maintained the appearance of a staff was also broken into small pieces and absorbed into the light.

People holding hands felt each other’s bodies shaking. It felt as if time had stopped amid such fear and anticipation, wondering if the world could really come back.

Then, I started hearing familiar voices. Voices that people thought they would never hear again were ringing in people’s ears.

“uh… … ? “What, am I not dead?”

“Daytona?”

“Brother Rinpa!?”

It was the voice of those who died fighting. The unfamiliar scenery they saw as soon as they woke up made them think they had arrived in the afterlife.

However, after a while, the will of light was transmitted into my head. I could see that the broken world was rising again.

People who died like that were coming back from all over the world.

At the same time, the numerous errors of the multiverse were being closed. Even if they couldn’t see it, everyone could see it. The fact that the dimensions that began with the atrocity of manipulating history are closing.

All the distortions that had existed for a thousand years were disappearing. It was finally finding its place.

I lost my mind.

As their senses faded, people lost consciousness, remembering only that they were holding each other’s hands.

* * *

July 30, 1805, Garden of the Sword.

A wizard wearing a black robe like mourning clothes entered the garden.

It was Beradin. He has always worn only black clothes since the world was restored. He meant that he was still a sinner, and in honor of the missing Elona.

“Lord Beradin, why don’t you stop wearing different clothes? It feels so dull every time I look at it… … .”

“Yes, Lord Beradin. To many people, Lord Beradin is perceived as a hero rather than a bad guy, but every time they say that, I am a sinner and have nothing to do.”

It was Dante and Enya. They had gone to the Garden of Swords to see Jin. However, Jin was not there and was drinking tea with other jockeys.

“There are people who look at me kindly, but there are still countless people who criticize me. “Until there are no such people left, our family will only wear black clothes.”

“Now there’s only Gyeong left in Jeep.”

“No, there is one more person.”

Octavia and Beradin came here to meet their aunt in the Sword Garden dungeon.

“Ah, Octavia. That guy is also difficult to understand. Anyway, in the end, thanks to my declaration of surrender, the world returned safely, so I told them I could just stay in prison for as long as I wanted and get out… … “It looks like he still has no intention of coming out.”

It was Mary.

In fact, Octavia surprisingly received quite a lot of public support. This was because most of the final battle with the Demon Gods and the process of restoring the world were revealed to the public.

Except for the fact that only Jin was the one who returned ‘with memories’, the public knew all the details.

Jin also tried to make the contents public, but was discouraged by his colleagues. His colleagues shut Jin up with the logic that it was a secret that only they wanted to know.

“Anyway, I don’t understand people who support Aunt Octavia. In the end, will she be cleared of guilt because she did well once? By that logic, everyone is a good person. My aunt is a bad person. She knows it herself and that’s why she doesn’t come out of jail. “Me too.”

Mary shrugged, took out two new glasses, and filled them with tea.

“Go and drink with your aunt.”

“I dare not refuse the heavenly favor of Runkandel… … .”

“You’re laughing. And then I get hit.”

Beradin looked at Mary’s fist, took the teacup and headed to the dungeon.

Unlike the other prisoners, the door to Octavia’s room was open.

“Are you here?”

“yes.”

Octavia looked at the teacup that Beradin had put down for a long time and then held it in her hand. When her world was restored a year ago, she didn’t hold anyone’s hand.

“Stop coming to me now. People will point fingers. “Unlike me, you did not commit sins of your own will, so there is no benefit in being associated with me.”

“But we are blood relatives, so how can you do that?”

At those words, Octavia chuckled and remembered what the dead Keliac had said.

“Make sure you survive and enjoy a long life. It wouldn’t be such a bad thing to be reborn as a shining being once in a while. Or, it’s okay to become a monster that will never exist again like me. “But aren’t you my younger brother?”

“yes?”

“This is what Keliak of Masindae said to me. Still, seeing you say we are blood relatives reminds me of this.”

Still, he is my younger brother, but he is still my blood relative.

The two Jeeps left in the world recognized each other that way.

“Wouldn’t it be a better atonement to go out and contribute knowledge to magic education and research? “Like me.”

“It’s not that I haven’t thought about it. But all the magic I’ve learned is specialized for killing and destroying people. “It may not be the knowledge needed in this day and age.”

Still, my aunt would soon be able to make a big contribution to the research on magic that can save people… … Veradin, who was about to say that, looked at her hands and feet and shook her head. The body that Octavia destroyed herself did not return when the world was restored.

“Well, then there’s nothing we can do about it.”

“I decided to live my life by not leaving prison until I die. “I cannot become a shining being or a monster, but this is just my own conclusion for atonement.”

“still… … My aunt’s final choice clearly had a shining point. “If her aunt hadn’t made that choice, Lord Elona wouldn’t have been able to restore the world safely like this.”

“That is why I have at least the qualifications to make atonement in this way. I’m fine, so you can take off your mourning clothes and shrouds now. “Didn’t Lord Elona ask your friend that much?”

Beradin sipped his tea without answering.

“I heard that there will be a succession ceremony for Jin as the head of the family the day after tomorrow. At least when you attend there, wear white robes like in the old days. “Only Runkandel can wear black clothes at that location.”

“yes… … I was already thinking of doing that. “I don’t want people to forget that I was Zipple and that I still use that name.”

“If you don’t forget, it will be okay for everyone to forget.”

Beradin nodded at those words.

It was clearly a dungeon, but a warm wind was blowing between the two people from somewhere. Beradin caught the wind in his hand and smiled. It seemed like Elona had arrived.

“I see. Surprisingly, such a warm wind blows here too, aunt. Let’s not forget and stay like this. Who we were, what we did, and how we will live and atone in the future.”

Octavia put her mouth to the teacup for the first time.

“… … “I guess so.”
