Episode 290. Retribution (2)
After quitting the Knights of Light, he disappeared for a whopping 7 years.
After a whopping seven years, Ellis appeared again to Eshel.
Even though so many years have passed, her pure and beautiful beauty has not changed at all.
Like an eternal stream that never changes and always flows.
However, the atmosphere was very different.
“Ellis. “Why are you here?”
“Of course I came to see my brother.”
Eshel was momentarily speechless at the answer without any hesitation.
Then he suddenly let out an awkward laugh, and then suddenly started laughing brightly.
“haha! Yes, that’s right! You are here to help me! You, too, are a member of the Berthe family and have come to help me, the future of the family! Right, Ellis?”
Ellis just looked at him with indifferent eyes without answering.
Eshel slowly approached Ellis.
“Help me, Ellis. First, we have to escape from this demon world. We need to get out and come up with a new plan to fight him.”
Finally, Eshel stood face to face with Elise, held her hand and gazed earnestly into her eyes.
Ellis did not reject that gaze but silently accepted it.
Then, the power of purple delusion appeared in Eshel’s eyes.
“Will you help me, Ellis?”
After hearing his secret whisper, Ellis gently loosened her hands and gently cupped Eshel’s two faces.
At the same time, the pupils also gradually began to relax.
“Brother… … .”
“okay. Ellis!”
A smile appeared on Eshel’s lips again.
“I feel really sorry.”
However, those eyes that had become loose became sharply tightened again.
-closely
At the same time, he tightened his grip on Eshel’s face and threw it to the floor.
Eshel, who had been thrown out, quickly smoothed her face and glared harshly at Ellis.
“Are you embarrassed because the power of deception didn’t work?”
“… … !”
But even for a moment,
Eshel’s eyes, which were filled with anger, soon began to waver, engulfed in doubt.
A dazzling halo of blue light was shining through Ellis’s eyes.
“Ellis, are you sure? Did you make a contract with God? … ?”
The only targets on which the power of deception works are humans and other races of the same level.
That power did not work on humans who received power from the Supreme Being.
Instead of answering, Ellis took out something unfamiliar from her arms.
“Do you remember this, brother?”
It was an old scroll that looked like it was about to fall off at any moment.
“It’s a magic scroll my brother gave me when I was young, no, it’s a summoning scroll.”
Eshel frowned as if she finally remembered.
“Onii-sama said that if I activate this scroll, everyone in the world will turn to me, right? I definitely think so. “The moment I activated this scroll, I would have become a meal for the demonic beast.”
“It seems there was some misunderstanding. I just… … .”
“I think I realized from then on. My brother doesn’t want me to continue the family, he just wants me to die miserably. “That will further increase the family and father’s interest in my brother.”
In the end, Ellis became so emotional that she crumpled the scroll.
“What on earth were you so afraid of?”
“what?”
“Why were you so afraid that you wanted to kill anyone who tried to surpass you? How many people have to die for your brother’s order to be complete? Because of one person, my brother! Even my father, who devoted his entire life to defense! “In the end, you died in vain because of your brother!”
Ellis could barely stop the tears from flowing.
“You are a person who should not exist in this world.”
I was finally able to say the words that had been buried in my heart for so long.
Even though Eshel looked at Ellis with blank eyes, she immediately stood up.
“In the end, you too deny me, Ellis.”
Then he pulled out the holy sword again and pointed it at her.
“It doesn’t matter even if you made a contract with God. I am the only savior of this land chosen by Rummendel, the almighty god of light! “No matter how good you are, you can’t stop me, Ellis!”
“A savior? You are not a savior. A savior never lives for himself alone. “Don’t give such a noble nickname to someone like you!”
Ellis also roared without giving in.
Then, suddenly, the surrounding scenery changed in an instant.
“… … !”
In the middle of the water with nothing visible around.
It felt like I was left alone in the deep sea without a single ray of light.
Unlike Eshel, who was struggling because she couldn’t breathe, Ellis was calm.
-Poof! Swish
Even if I swung the holy sword around, it only cut through the air and the situation did not change.
Eshel’s body was falling further and further into the bottomless abyss of despair.
“Lumendel! Are you really going to abandon me?!”
Eshel once again asked for salvation from the Supreme Being who had granted her grace.
“Just me! Only I can put you in order! Please give me one more chance… … !”

Then, a ray of light began to appear before my eyes, which were covered in darkness.
Eshel hurriedly turned his gaze to where the light came from.
It was none other than Durandark, the holy sword he was holding in his hand.
In the light, the heroic spirit of Durandark soon materialized and appeared before him.
A bright smile appeared on Eshel’s face again.
“Holy sword! Please lead me back to the path of salvation… … .”
“That’s pathetic.”
However, contrary to his earnest heart, what came back was a cold answer.
“How can a person who calls himself a savior ask for salvation? “You have already tarnished my reputation and the reputation of the Light.”
“Holy sword? “What are you saying?”
“You failed the last chance he gave you. He no longer has any expectations of you.”
Eshel’s face was twisted with more despair than ever.
“Stop falling into the abyss.”
With those words, the light that illuminated the surroundings suddenly disappeared.
In the thick darkness, miserable cries spread widely in all directions, but there was no one who could offer him a helping hand.
The false savior who believed that he was the only order of the world,
I fell endlessly into that deep abyss of despair.

“Eshel!!”
Haniel ran towards Eshel, who lost her balance and fell helplessly, with a thoughtful expression on her face.
“Come to your senses, Eshel! “I mean, open your eyes!”
However, he didn’t even show blood around his eyes, as if his soul had already drained out.
“… … .”
Ellis looked at the sight of such a hat with a pitiful gaze.
‘Finally, I didn’t kill him.’
Marian’s voice sounded in Alice’s head.
“For you, death can actually be salvation. “I don’t want to give salvation to my brother like that.”
Death is the end of life and the end of pain.
I didn’t want to give the false savior such a simple end.
“In the end, the final judgment will be made by Xian, not me.”
Ellis slowly turned her head and made eye contact with Emily, who was watching the entire situation.
“long time no see. Miss Ellis… … .”
Emily greeted Ellis more politely than ever.
“Perhaps I need an explanation?”
Ellis looked puzzled by her presence for a moment, but then said with a kind smile.
“I don’t think we need to have a long conversation with each other. So there is no need to explain. “You and I both are here because, in the end, we are here for one person.”
“You are correct. Thank you for your understanding.”
“Are you going to wait for Xian?”
“no. “I don’t think it’s time to see you yet.”
When asked if she was going to wait for Sian, Emily shook her head and answered.
“No matter what I say, Xian will understand. “You should know better because you’ve been together longer than me.”
“It would be nice if you didn’t swear at all.”
Emily scratched her head and revealed her honest feelings.
Ellis smiled in understanding and turned her gaze back to Eshel.
Soon a blue magic circle was created beneath her feet.
Then, he surrendered himself to the light created by the magic circle and disappeared along with the fallen Eshel.
“Thank you for your hard work. miss… … .”
Emily bowed her head once again towards Ellis, who had left.
The moment she finished saying hello and was about to leave in a hurry,
“Do you think I’m going to send you away like this?”
Haniel, who was still at the scene, stopped her.
“What if you don’t send it…” … !”
Emily, who was about to turn her head again, suddenly opened her eyes and clutched her heart.
“Wow!”
Blood poured out of the mouth along with pain of unknown origin, and even breathing became increasingly difficult.
“You are like a stray cat! A stray cat that you can pick up whenever you need it, and get rid of it whenever you don’t! “There is no reason for me to spare four years of life when I declared that I would no longer live for my son!”
“Dae, what on earth are you doing?”
Emily was still confused as she did not know the cause of the pain.
However, I could soon tell through the blood she vomited.
The ground, which was stained red due to hemoptysis, contained an unidentifiable purple liquid.
“You still have my blood flowing inside you! As you know, that blood is no ordinary blood! I can turn it into a lethal poison for you at any time, depending on my heart!
“W-I wonder if someone is the son’s mother…” … !”
Emily glared at Haniel with an expression of disgust.
“Nothing will change if you kill me!”
“Why won’t anything change? Wouldn’t it cause deep sorrow to your master whom you cherish so much? “I will be tormented for the rest of my life by the fact that I could not protect even the one person who secretly dedicated myself to you!!”
“Well, that…” … !”
Even if she tried to respond, there was absolutely nothing she could do.
Blood continued to pour out of the mouth.
“Shouldn’t you be grateful to me instead? A memory of you that he can never forget will be engraved in his mind? “I will spend the rest of my life feeling guilty about you!”
Even the spirit that I had held tightly began to gradually fade.
“I will tell you clearly! What pain you suffered and died so pitifully! “I’m already looking forward to seeing your master’s face sobbing while holding your corpse!”
Haniel spewed out laughter as if he had lost his mind and led Emily into even deeper pain.
However, even that laughter could not be heard properly anymore.
Emily moved her lips in a situation where only heavy breathing filled her surroundings.
It was not a situation worth smiling, as if her limbs were going to twist at any moment, but she had to smile.
I must tell Xian that I died a very satisfying death with no regrets in this world.
That way, I will be able to ease his sadness just a little bit.
“It was such an honor… … .”
Emily barely moved her mouth and said her last words to Sian.
“Because I can live and die as the master’s maid… … .”
After saying those words, Emily smiled brightly.
With a face of pure happiness, without any regrets,
I closed my eyes like that.
-tuk
But just before her eyes completely closed,
“… … !”
Emily’s eyes widened in an instant as she felt a series of touches.
Along with that, a familiar voice sounded in my ears.
“Who wants to die?”
