Episode 295. Unwanted help (3)
“What did you say just now?”
Xian’s gaze was extremely sharp, as if he was looking at a well-forged blade.
How could it be that the youngest, who had shown infinitely soft eyes towards her, was now looking at her with such sharp eyes?
For Ellis, the tension could not help but increase further.
“I said let’s stop here. You don’t have to struggle anymore. You can live confidently with the people you cherish. No one will blame you. “Because I will make it happen.”
However, she did not give in and confidently expressed her opinion.
Ellis truly hoped that Sian would stop here.
I wanted to live like a human being without any more blood on my hands.
but,
“Are you saying that because you know what I’m going to do next?”
Sian already showed with his eyes that he had no intention of doing so.
“No matter what you do, it will be sacrificing yourself in the name of protecting everyone. “How can I let you go if I know that?”
As if he had hit the nail on the head, Sian said nothing.
I just avert my gaze towards the window.
Ellis did not continue speaking and waited for Sian to speak.
“It’s not that I didn’t think about quitting. “I thought many times that it was useless.”
Sian revealed the honest feelings she had been feeling.
“But I guess I couldn’t put it into action. I understand your feelings. Because there would be no one to replace you. But not anymore. I am by your side now… … .”
“But I don’t want to see you sacrifice yourself instead of me. I’ve told you this many times. Regardless of your family or anything else, I want you to live your own life. That’s why I gave you a second life.”
Why is this person, that person,
Why does he go out of his way to sacrifice everything for himself, even though he only saved his life once?
Xian really couldn’t understand.
Humans are selfish and completely self-centered animals.
I hope the people around me realize that instinct now and live their own lives.
Sian really wanted it badly.
“I will leave your care to you for the time being. I ask that you obediently hand it over to me when I come to visit you again. “If you really care about me, you should definitely do that.”
This is a declaration called a request.
No matter who tried to stop him, Sian could never give up on the devil named Eshel.
After saying those words, Sian turned around and slowly approached the door.
“How long do you plan on sacrificing yourself?”
Ellis asked Sian as if pleading with her eyes filled with excellence.
“I never thought of it as a sacrifice.”
Sian grabbed the doorknob and looked back at her one last time.
“All of this is just a process of moving forward for my life.”
Xian left the room like that, and Ellis couldn’t catch Xian, so she stared at the door he had left through.
‘Really, you’re the younger brother who doesn’t listen.’
After a short period of silence, Marian’s voice came into her head.
“It’s a bittersweet feeling. It wasn’t something I really expected, but… … .”
Ellis tried to wipe away her tears and put her mind together.
‘so. What do you plan to do now? You see, I have to go back to Pruina now. ‘I can’t be with you any longer.’
“yes. I can’t be indebted to Marian anymore. “Thank you so much for your help so far.”
‘… … .’
“… … .”
‘If you have a favor to ask, please say it quickly and without hesitation.’
“D-Did you get caught?”
Ellis smiled awkwardly and scratched her head.
‘It’s not for you. ‘I need to resolve that quickly and leave so I can feel relieved.’
Ellis seemed to hesitate for a moment, but then spoke confidently with a determined look on her face.
“then. Please let me meet Aquanis.”
‘… … .’
Marian stopped responding momentarily.
As if Ellis knew she had just made a huge statement, a drop of cold sweat ran down her cheek.
‘You want to face God?’
Marian asked back in a sharp voice.

The blue dawn sky.
Before the time was up, Hastia had already arrived at the meeting place and was looking at the beautiful curtain of dawn.
Sian showed up just on time.
‘Are you here?’
Hastia welcomed him with a bright smile.
However, he soon saw Xian’s bad complexion and asked with a worried face.
‘What happened? ‘Your face doesn’t look good.’
Instead of answering, Xian glanced at Hastia’s whole body.
Then he suddenly took off the cloak he was wearing and covered it with her.
‘Sian, what is this?’
“It will be cold if you leave it that way.”
It was a consideration to cover Hastia in case she was cold due to her scanty clothing.

Hastia, who reacted blankly for a moment, soon burst into laughter.
‘Have you forgotten that I’m a white elf? I don’t know anything else, but I’m more confident than Sian that I can endure the cold! ‘You don’t have to be so considerate!’
“okay? Then give it back to me.”
When Xian tried to kick it back, Hastia quickly grabbed it.
‘no, I do not want! ‘How can you take back what you once gave?’
Then, all of a sudden, he rubbed his face against the cloak and let out a pleasant laugh.
Xian looked at that with a puzzled expression.
The journey to Pruina somehow began.
Before leaving, Xian glanced at the Duke of Berthe’s mansion in the distance.
From beginning to end, I didn’t ask for any help.
I didn’t want anyone to stop me in the name of helping.
Just as it was before, it will be the same in the future.
That solving problems and handling things alone is what you want,
Sian had no doubt about it.

“What does that mean? “You said you came here and then just left?”
Instead of answering, Brian just nodded.
Without hesitation, Emily immediately grabbed him by the collar.
“Brian are you crazy? Anyway, that’s true. “What are we going to do if we don’t really say anything about what’s going on in the empire right now?”
“Isn’t this what Princess Arin asked us to do? Moreover, Master also asked me not to say anything until he leaves.”
Nothing will change if you hold on to your collar and hang around.
Emily finally reluctantly asked with a face full of despair.
“Then, as far as where you’re going… … .”
Brian did not speak this time, but instead responded by shaking his head.
Hasn’t it always been like that?
Sian had never really told anyone around him where he was going.
“He probably went to Pruina.”
Just as the heavy atmosphere was about to continue, Lunav, who was also sitting in the room, opened his mouth.
“If you are accompanying Hastia and no one else, there is only one place to go. “She went to Pruina, her hometown and the White Elf territory.”
“For what?”
“That’s because the person involved didn’t talk about it, so there’s no way to know right now. However, if he left without saying anything, it probably means that he doesn’t want to receive any help from us.”
“I don’t know why this person or that person is trying to solve it alone.”
Set leaned back in a sitting position and let out a laugh.
In many ways, the reaction seemed to be fed up with Arin and Xian’s stubborn behavior.
-Sigh
While everyone was pondering and not knowing what to do, Lunav got up from his seat.
“Where are you going, junior?”
“The Kingdom of Garam.”
“Bo, are you going back to your home country?”
“no. “I’m going to ask for support myself?”
Everyone in the room blinked twice in unison.
“Everyone is behaving as they please, so is there any way to stop me from doing as I please?”
Lunav shrugged his shoulders as if wondering what was the problem.
“If there is something you want to do, do it without hesitation.”
“B-but… … .”
“No matter what you do, it’s better than doing nothing and just keeping your head wrapped.”
With those words, Lunav left the room.
“As expected, you can’t keep up with our junior’s ideas?”
Set also left the room with a meaningful smile.
Emily and Brian, who were left behind, didn’t know what to do, but their eyes wandered.
“… … .”
Soon, as if they realized what they had to do, their dark eyes began to become brighter.
* * *
-Whoa!
A radiance beginning to take shape above the clouds accompanied by a clear sound.
The brilliance soon transformed into the form of a brilliant holy sword, showing off its elegant appearance, and there was a being watching it right in front.
It was Lumendel, the god of light, who created the holy sword Durandark.
As if recognizing that the creator was in front of him, light erupted from the sword again.
Soon, the materialized heroic spirit of Durandark appeared and knelt before him.
“There is no shame. Rumendel… … .”
Rummendel gently stroked her head as she asked for forgiveness.
“You’re very wet.”
It was as if she had fallen into the water somewhere, and water droplets were dripping from all over her body.
“Thank you for personally summoning me again. “I banished that false savior to the abyss who twice abandoned the opportunity given to him by Rumendel.”
“What wrong could he have done? “He just couldn’t handle the force that was beyond his means and collapsed on his own.”
However, they never said anything about saving him.
“I did some thinking. Why does this happen to me? “This world must have a proper order to follow me, but at some point it started to go a little out of order.”
Mutants who cannot adapt to the flow are bound to be found wherever you go.
However, now the power that the mutation represents is increasingly outside the scope that Rummendel had in mind.
“I haven’t found the reason yet. But I know a solution. “Do you know what that is?”
“Please tell me. What is?”
“Simple. “I’m just taking it all back.”
“You mean turning it back?”
“It won’t be bad for you, Durandark. “I will return you to the owner who treated you best.”
“Lumendel! That means… … !”
Durandark’s face, as he understood Rumendel’s intentions, was immediately filled with joy and emotion.
“But isn’t he currently sealed under the ice cap of Pruina? Even though Rumendel himself broke the seal… … .”
“Who said that? “I’m breaking the seal?”
“If so?”
“For this day, I will use the key that has been protected by me to unlock the seal.”
Suddenly, a smile appeared on Rummendel’s lips.
“The reason humans are weak is because they have emotions. When emotions break down, the original vessel of power also cracks and eventually breaks. I will completely destroy that mutant’s emotions. “Since he volunteered to be human, this will be a hopeless pain that he will never be able to overcome.”
No matter how strong a person you are, it is useless.
This is like a deadly poison that is bound to be fatal to humans.
Joyful smiles were in full bloom on the two faces as they prepared the poisonous blade.
