NOVEL NEXT chapter 198
198 – Him (Wan)
“…… “
Did it hit me unexpectedly?
The man looked at me blankly with her mouth slightly open.
Soon she was scratching her head.
As if her throat was burning, she lifted the cup of coffee on her shelf and took a sip, clearing her throat.
“No, you don’t have to get it right away.”
“… They said the situation was not good. “You can’t last much longer, right?”
“That’s right… At best… About 100 years. Actually, this is also easy. “My vision keeps getting dark these days.”
Eternal destruction of the Lord God.
It will soon be the end of the world.
Everything, including the six demons and demons, disappears cleanly.
“… So, I’ll take it now-“
“-Yamma. Anyway, it can last for 50 years. And… “You have just defeated a demon god.”
No matter how much of an asshole I am, how can I ask a guy who didn’t enjoy anything to sacrifice me right away?
“I need to rest now. Take your time… We talk about our loved ones… “
“… But… “
“And… I’m sure you noticed it too. “If you continue like this, you will end up walking the same path as me.”
I know.
The hardships that the man in front of her went through were even greater compared to mine. It won’t be any less.
That’s why he collapses.
In the end, as a human being, I too will reach my limit someday.
But you can’t just turn a blind eye and refuse.
If the only person to receive it is me.
If I don’t do it, everyone will die……
‘Then you should do it.’
There is nothing else to think about.
But this promise was completely shattered by one word from her man.
“And that…” I’m sorry for suddenly trying to set the mood… “
“… ?”
“You don’t have to make as many sacrifices as you think.”
“…… ???”
The man smiled awkwardly and explained.
“Once I experienced this, I realized how serious the problem was… So I put some effort into it.”
Repetition of a vicious cycle.
Even if I accept it now, I will eventually have to bring in someone who will accept it next time.
And there is no guarantee that he will overcome hardships and trials as well as me and be worthy of being a god.
“So… “I have prepared a device so that it can end with just you.”
“… Yes?”
“We shared seats.”
Three major priests excluding Saenae.
Irelua, the goddess of life and love.
Russel, the god of light and condemnation.
Leah, the goddess of death and reincarnation.
“I have divided and delivered the power and authority of the previous main deity to these three people. Of course, they may not know it. These three people were born from the beginning to handle the power of the main god… They don’t have mental defects like you and me. What is character education? “I put in a lot of effort, so I won’t do anything strange.”
“Uh… Then I… “What are you doing?”
“You are in charge of integrating and managing these three.”
I usually just lead a normal life.
My role will come into play in the future when an unexpectedly large disaster approaches.
“A being who takes away the power entrusted to the three great gods and controls that power.”
In other words, a being who protects the world as a vessel and manager of the main god.
“In the end, there is nothing we can do about what exists outside. Of course, the Six Demon Reverse Heavens and their leader, the Demon God, will continue to emerge. And they will all continue to threaten this world according to their engraved mission.”
They say it’s my turn to step forward.
“If this happens… You won’t end up like me and there will be less pressure. Because we support each other. Of course, there is an emergency, so I will also hand over the Lord’s To you so that you can handle the unexpected.”
The man who answered leaned back in his chair as if he felt somewhat relieved.
“Ah, even if it is a vessel, it still qualifies as a god. Their status will probably be raised to the point where they cannot be called human. “Power is power, but the sensation itself will be on a different level.”
Oh, that’s good news.
“How strong is it?”
“Um… No Face can be eliminated with a snap of your fingers… ?”
“Oh…… “
“With that level, you can live a happy life while protecting yourself and the people around you.”
No matter what I say, there are some things I am worried about.
Because you don’t know what will happen in the distant future.
“… But for now this is the best I can do. So… “Please take care of the rest.”
The man lowered his head softly as his eyes filled with regret.
“…… “
I had a lot of complicated feelings.
I feel fortunate.
At the same time, I am also worried that I might become strange in the distant time of one million years.
Resentment and miscellaneous thoughts about her man.
But… I decided not to think about it now.
‘… At that time, then.’
It won’t be too late even if you try to hit it directly.
“So, you’re going to play Tangja Tangja for about 50 years? “I’ve worked hard so far, so they won’t say anything if I play this much, right?”
“Of course. “You are a hero who saved the world, so who can say anything?”
A man laughing.
She then continued her words as if she had forgotten.
“Do you ever want to go?”
“… ? “Where?”
“The original world.”
“…… “
Stiffness―
My body stiffened at the completely unexpected words.
Anyway, the man searched her arms and handed her an unusual-looking ticket.
When she held it with her hand, surprisingly, spatial coordinates came into her head.
“… About… Minguk… are you?”
“Oh, the world you lived in. And it will be around the neighborhood where you were summoned. Of course… The time zone may be a little different. “I can’t control this either.”
“… How long has it been? “If it’s too long-“
“-It must have been about 5 years. That… “I did some research just in case.”
Your parents.
And even her younger sister.
All three people were safe.
“Of course, now that you’re gone, it’s somewhat like a funeral home.”
Family.
It’s family……
“… I look completely different now… You will be surprised when you go… “
“You can easily make me understand that with the You have. “That’s the most important thing.”
Whether you have the will to do so or not.
A statement that hits the nail on the head.
I was silent for a long time.
‘…… ‘I don’t even remember anymore.’
I don’t even remember what all three of them looked like.
The only thing I can say is that my younger sister, whose voice and name I can’t remember, was very rude… ?
I have nothing to say to an unfilial son.
I also find it a bit unfair that it has been 80 years.
I died once, and it was an endless time running and fighting monsters.
It would be natural to forget everything.
“Well, it’s not coercion. Just accept it… In my case, I was an orphan from the beginning so I had nothing to worry about. The only thing I could do was send a greeting letter to a friend. “Still, it’s my personal opinion, but I think it would be better if my biological parents come when I get married later.”
“…… Surely.”
“By the way, Erina, Seol Garam, and Wien should also let these three see their in-laws.”
…… Huh?
Is something a little strange?
“…… ? “Why does their name appear there?”
The man’s expression becomes mysterious at my question.
Frown your eyebrows.
And then he sighed‘Okay, okay, it’s still too early. Not yet… ’ He mutters.
“That… Just listen to this. “I was the same as you?”
“…… Yes?”
The man scratched his chin and said something… She clicked her tongue as if she was seeing something pitiful.
For some reason, an inexplicable chill runs up her spine.
“I was just one person at first. Then one night, the number suddenly increased to 3… A month later, the number increased to 5… “After a few years, there were 10 of us.”
“No, over there. “What are you saying all of a sudden?”
“So… Is Jegal a star? Dogs are good at making drugs. Pay a lot of money and buy a lot of And eat them. I also eat some eel and bokbunja here. “I assure you, I really can’t handle the fallout.”
What kind of bullsh*t is this damned bastard talking about!?
“No, I don’t think so!”
“Shiva. Just listen! This means that I, like you, am a senior in life who suffered the consequences of arguing! “I can guarantee that you will be bossed around later anyway.”
“Don’t be ridiculous!”
* * *
“… Anyway, I’ve said everything I wanted to say.”
The man leaned back against her body and sucked the black water, saying ‘ahhh’ or something.
She saw a feeling of relief in his eyes.
After revealing everything to me, it seems like the burden on my heart has become a little lighter.
“There’s still time left to be resurrected, so what do you want to do? Another round of canyoning?”
I also thought as I leaned back in her chair.
It’s definitely fun.
It’s fun…
‘… But I’m a little tired.’
Until now, I have never had a single moment of proper rest.
A series of mentally intense struggles.
The past days when whenever I closed my eyes, the threat of the Would come right in front of me and extend its dark hand.
‘… But I can’t see it anymore.’
Only then did I feel that all the chains that had bound me until now had been loosened.
It makes me smile.
‘Huh… ‘ He took a deep breath, moved his arms behind his head and lay down.
“No. Brother. “I’ll sleep for a bit.”
“Is that so? Then, if you go to the back room over there, there’s a bed.”
“No, just…” “I’ll just lie down here on the chair and close my eyes.”
“Okay. Good job.”
“Yes… “Oh my brother.”
“Huh?”
“Russel, I miss you.”
The man’s eyes widen.
Scratching her head, ‘Uh… hmm… ‘ she says.
“Are you embarrassed to meet me?”
“…… That’s right. I guess it’s always been like that. I made it because I needed it… “Because they are children.”
“But he is still my son. “As a father, you should visit him at least once.”
“…… “I guess I’ll have to go there sometime.”
I looked back at her man who nodded seriously and slowly closed her eyes.
Time passed so quickly.
The moment of resurrection has arrived.
