Episode 112. Being of Salvation (2)
[When did you learn healing magic?]
Kayram asked me as I was wiping my hands in the flowing rainwater.
“I just learned it as a side dish. “Because I have to take care of my body.”
If you do this, you never know when and where the shadow of death will strike your body.
It is very common for assassins to have a knife stuck in their limbs and their back split diagonally.
In the meantime, isn’t it funny that I’m holding my wounds alone and waiting for a healer to treat me?
If you are thinking about sticking a knife into someone else’s body, you should always have the thought that the knife could also stick into your own body.
Of course, we must also have the means to deal with it.
[If you look closely, there are many talents that are not suitable for you?]
Is it because of my mood that I feel sarcastic?
[so. Now that you’ve slapped your face in front of your dear sister, what do you plan to do now?]
“I don’t know either.”
[…] … ?]
Kayram frowned as if he was puzzled.
[What is it? What is the solutionless answer?]
“In the end, my sister’s new future will only be meaningful if she decides it.”
I turned my head and looked in the direction where my sister was.
I could get a glimpse of her distraught mind from the way she was clutching her head and thinking.
Since I’ve been through so much in a short period of time, it’s probably hard to overcome it in a short period of time.
Fortunately, it is possible to do that because she is my older sister.
My sister is not frustrated and despairing about the current situation.
Rather, you might be thinking about it.
What should I do when faced with this situation?
Soon, as if she had made up her mind, my older sister raised her lowered head and bit her lip.
As I naturally approached her side, she opened her mouth as if she had been waiting.
“You told me the other day. As the son of the Berthe family, he wants to continue the family’s ideology… … .”
“yes. “It was like that.”
“Is it still like that now?”
Even after coming this far, there seemed to be no reason to lie.
“I didn’t have any desire to do that from the beginning.”
My sister nodded as if she understood.
“The reason I decided that I wanted to carry on my family’s ideology was not that special. I just thought someone had to do it. I thought that would be me. I thought it was possible because it had to be me, because it was me. “I believed it was for everyone’s benefit.”
Know.
The Knights of Light armor that my sister is wearing right now shows her will.
“But now I feel like everything is meaningless. I wonder if there is any need for that… … .”
“Why are you saying that?”
“You saw it too, right? Cecilia stabbed me… … .”
I agreed silently.
“Cecilia was more than just a knight protecting me. He was the most understanding of my dream of becoming a knight of light, and he always gave me advice. Sometimes she thought she was more important than her family… … .”
My sister took a deep breath and tried to suppress the feelings that were rising to tears again.
“But that wasn’t it. Regardless of her reasons and circumstances, Cecilia was just not mine from the beginning. “She was just by my side the whole time for a purely different purpose.”
Betrayal from someone you have trusted and relied on all your life.
The shock caused by this is so devastating that it is meaningless to simply explain it.
I know that feeling all too well.
“Anger… … “Are you not coming out?”
“fury? Well, even if you’re angry, what’s the point? I was just stupid because I didn’t know anything… … .”
I think.
Ignorance is not a sin.
However, I believe that trust based on ignorance is very dangerous.
Strictly speaking, my sister is not at fault for the current situation.
However, my sister is probably blaming herself right now.
He said that his ignorant trust in thinking that he had been by his side so far and would continue to be there in the future caused the results he has today.
“Xian, do you know something about your family, or about your brother Eshel?”
I was so embarrassed that I couldn’t speak right away.
“I clearly saw it in the imperial palace that day. In fact, you were very wary of Eshel, whom you had barely seen. As if I knew his inner thoughts that no one else knew… … .”
This is why my sister is so amazing.
There is no need to deny the fact that we have already noticed it to some extent.
but,
“Someday… … “Let me tell you.”
I don’t think now is the time.
On the contrary, my sister may become more dangerous by learning the true nature of the devil.
When the right time comes, I will tell my sister everything.
“I see… … .”
It was a voice that felt somewhat regretful.
“Then won’t you tell me this one thing?”
My sister’s blank eyes sparked life again.
“Can I think of you as the person I can trust and rely on the most right now?”

I was able to answer that question right away.
“of course.”
“Okay, that’s enough. It’s a bit embarrassing to become the older sister and rely on her younger brother… … .”
My sister stroked my head as usual.
“But Sian. You don’t have to carry everything alone. “Just as you stayed by my side, you will also have many people by your side.”
I felt a little strange.
Unlike someone who might have taken my sacrifice for granted, my sister was truly grateful and sorry to me.
If my sister in my past life had not died and had stayed by my side,
How would my life be different?
I immediately thought it was pointless and shook my head.
In the end, now is what matters.
It will be my duty to continue to maintain that smile of my sister.
-Ssuk
I could feel the presence of knights from far away beyond the bushes.
It was probably a search party that came to check on my sister’s safety.
There wouldn’t be any good results if I went back, but when I looked into my sister’s eyes, I didn’t think I would go astray.
“Are you going back?”
“I have to go. Because it would be right for me to solve the problems I face myself. “Wouldn’t that allow me to see your face proudly?”
To be honest, I want to stop you from going, but
Still, I try to respect my sister’s choice.
The moment I gave up and was about to put the mask back on, my sister held my hand and said.
“Tell me everything that’s on your mind someday. This sister will wait for that day no matter when it happens… … .”
“Not far… … “I won’t.”
With those last words, I turned around.
At that moment, I felt like the mistakes in my heart that had been lingering for decades were completely washed away.

The unfamiliar appearance of her younger brother, who was so delicate and cute, gave Ellis a strong shock.
Is the draft you know correct?
However, the feeling that still remained in her hand proved that it was undeniably her family.
They say that time will tell everything, so Ellison wanted to focus on solving the problems he was facing right away.
Eventually, a small number of knights appeared from the bushes.
“Eh, Ellis!?”
They were imperial knights with the imperial emblem engraved on one side of their armor.
“You’re safe! “Are you hurt anywhere?”
“yes. Well, for now… … .”
The wounds suffered by Cecilia had already been completely healed by Sian.
Some knights were shocked when they saw the corpses of the demonic beasts lying around.
“These demonic beasts… … “Did you deal with it alone?”
Of course not, but I can’t say yes.
Although it might arouse some suspicion, Ellis thought it would be better than revealing Xian’s existence, so she nodded cautiously.
“Ah, anyway, I’m so glad I found Ellis first! “Maybe heaven will help me.”
For a knight of the Imperial Army, the reaction was a bit excessive.
“Well, what does that mean?”
Ellis, who had doubts about this, asked with caution.
“He told me that if there is any problem with Ellis, I must contact him first and tell him this.”
“W-Who are you talking about?”
Ellis was just dumbfounded when he heard that a knight of the imperial army, who was not even a knight of light, was speaking to him.
“This is President Kundel!”
However, the moment she heard the name of the person in question, Ellis’ pupils shook greatly.
The remaining knights were wary of the instigation and were keeping an eye on other knights who might come.
“Please listen to me carefully from now on. Ellis… … .”
The knight began to tell her everything he had been instructed to say in a restrained tone.
* * *
Eshel, who was walking through the hallway with indifferent steps, eventually stopped in front of a door.
In front of the gate, the knights of the imperial army were on tight guard.
A situation where it seems impossible for anyone to enter.
However, Eshel smiled slyly and spoke slyly.
“I came to see Princess Violet… … .”
To this, the knights responded hesitantly.
Anyone else would have flatly refused, but he was Eshel, the eldest son of the Duke of Berthe.
Soon, the driver who was paying attention made way, and Eshel went inside without any hesitation.
In the room was the second princess, who had a somewhat gaunt face, probably because she was going through a lot of mental distress.
“sorry. Eshel Ball. “I can’t bear to face you.”
Despite the princess’s remorse, Eshel remained silent.
“Are you here to reprimand me? Then do whatever you want. “No matter what I hear from you now, I won’t have the right to refute it.”
“… … “It’s not the princess’s fault.”
The second princess finally burst into tears.
“I don’t even have the qualifications to be a princess. As soon as I heard that a demon had appeared, I ran away without knowing… … . And yet, it seems like he only caused a nuisance to the people around him. How should I look at Duke Berthe’s face? … .”
The reason the princess used magic during her tour was simple.
Because I’m scared.
He was frightened by the fact that the demon had appeared and became impatient, so he tried to run away using transfer magic.
However, her excuse was that she was so embarrassed that she couldn’t set the coordinates properly, and it ended up in the wrong place instead of the rear.
Yes.
That’s an excuse, not an explanation.
Eshel guessed that the words coming out of the princess’s mouth were not at all true.
“Elise was there for me… … .”
“That’s enough.”
Eshel cut her off, as if she couldn’t listen any longer.
“This is enough to explain the princess’s anguish over Knight Ellis. So she doesn’t have to be sad anymore.”
At this, the princess stood up angrily.
“How can you say that? Ellis is Lord Eshel’s younger sister! “I don’t even know what happened to her younger brother, who was surrounded by demonic beasts, so how can you be so calm?”
However, Eshel’s expression remained firm until the end.
“Didn’t I tell you? There is no need to be sad anymore about Alice… … .”
“What does that mean?”
“I received a call from the rear camp a little while ago.”
For a moment, the princess’s pupils shook slightly.
“They said Ellis is alive.”
“… … !”
The princess’s face, unable to smile or frown, became strangely frozen.
