Feinol’s consciousness was sinking deep into the depths.
I felt myself sinking deeper and deeper into my inner world.
The more I went inside, the more things that I had normally ‘hidden under’ were revealed.
Hardened inside. Twisted emotions. Those memories that break my heart every time I think about them and reflect on them.
“…”
For Feinol Laifek, the world has always been a place full of pain and sorrow.
At least, it was safe to say that every moment she could remember ‘when she was alive’ was filled with such things.
My hometown in the countryside where I was first born. The second enemy, the Magic Tower.
Because the people around her all ended up in a bad situation.
“That’s why I’m helping you.”
Such a voice echoed in Feinol’s head as he slowly descended deeper.
I clear my blurred vision and look ahead.
There is a woman with her chin resting on her face, staring intently into her eyes.
This is the woman who would look like this if she replaced herself with the image of ‘red’.
Of course, it’s not exactly the same. There is some difference.
Maybe if you grow up for a few years, you’ll end up looking like this.
“It’s better not to feel anything. “You probably already know it in your heart.”
“…”
“Living in this world is suffering. If you accept nothing, you lose nothing.”
sadness. remorse.
An atmosphere that perhaps even feels pity.
It doesn’t look very fitting for someone called a ‘demon’.
“…then-”
Beyond my faint consciousness, I can barely form a sentence.
“…Why… did you save me…?”
During the first Red Night incident, when I first died.
When she found out that her very existence was a curse to others.
The person who saved his life was the red devil in front of him.
If only he had known that his past was filled with such painful memories.
just.
Take it easy and rest.
I wish I had let it go.
why.
What on earth does this guy want from himself?
What is the reason for taking away all of her emotions and senses and keeping her alive?
“…”
The answer didn’t come back for quite some time.
“…Just rest for a moment, Feinol.”
In my dazed mind, those voices rang one after another.
“Because the next time you open your eyes, you will have entered a world where you will never be hurt again.”
Those are the last words.
Feinol’s consciousness was completely immersed in darkness.
●
scary.
If I were to organize the words that come to mind right now, nothing else comes to mind.
Elijah Chrysanax grabbed the holy sword with trembling hands.
What is before my eyes is an image I saw once when I was young.
The appearance of a ‘devil’ within a huge pillar of fire.
Two horns growing above the head. A slitted pupil.
Feinol Lifek was quietly existing within the pillar of fire, as if it was embracing its own body.
With eyes that have lost their light, they are looking blankly at the sky.
Like trying to find something.
‘…I said I shouldn’t waste time.’
I recall the advice I received from Daoud before coming here.
It is said that the longer the Red Devil is revealed, the more he terraforms and changes.
So, if that vessel comes into contact with the void zone.
As it is, the world could be destroyed.
“…”
If so, what you have to do here is clear.
No matter what happens, no matter who the opponent is
Elijah took a deep breath and grabbed the holy sword.
To be honest.
I don’t think I can do it.
Isn’t this something that Dowd has always done? He was close to assisting with that.
There’s no way I could pull this off without any support from there.
Still, it’s better to do something than stand still and watch the world perish!
“Sigh!”
With an inhalation, he kicks the ground and rushes forward.
Anyway, I am not a person who has ever been called a hero candidate.
If you combine the combat skills specially trained by Kwon Seong with the Eyes of Truth, you will be no match for him.
‘…First, cut the flames, create a platform behind with magic to approach the main body, and third, fight in close combat…’
I’ve never mixed hands with a devil, but the fight itself is impossible without at least dragging him there!
While thinking so.
Next moment.
Elijah’s body bounced violently.
This happened before I even got close to the flames forming the pillar of fire.
“…”
Elijah’s pupils dilated.
just now.
It took me a while to understand what was happening.
‘…I just…’
Just because of the ‘pressure’ coming from over there.
Without any hostile intentions, it was purely due to the reverberation of the demonic energy emanating from the pillar of fire.
I couldn’t even get close and was pushed away.
Feinol’s body inside the pillar of fire was motionless. This means that he is not particularly conscious of himself and has not even taken any action to push him away.
as it were.
You must be unable to control your body due to the other person’s ‘breath’.
“…!”
My eyes are bloodshot.
There is no humiliation like this.
Then, she gritted her teeth and rushed toward him.
rather.
It would have been better for him to have been crushed by the opponent’s blow.
Now this.
To the point where I feel like I’m not even worth dealing with.
“…”
I couldn’t do anything.
I can’t even deal with it. I can’t even find a strategy.
Even though you are looking at the other person with the eyes of truth, you cannot even obtain any information about the other person.
“…”
Elijah gritted his teeth and rushed towards the other person again.
If it doesn’t work, you have no choice but to keep doing it until it works.
I just rushed at it with that thought in mind.
once.
twice.
three. four. five. six. seven.
“…”
Over and over again, I get thrown around.
I can’t even approach straight.
Such a gap that seemed to negate her pride, self-esteem, and all the hard work she had put in.
“…Do not be ridiculous…!”
Perhaps those feelings were the driving force that moved my body at first.
how many times.
How many times did I rush in like that?
My whole body feels numb.
The other person is not even interested in you in the first place.
It means that he is not even capable of causing that level of harm.
“…”
dozens. hundred. One hundred and fifty.
I don’t know how many times I was thrown around in just a few minutes.
My whole body swells. No matter how much the scent lingers, the number of scratches on the body increases due to constant contact with demonic energy. Minor injuries and pain gradually accumulate.
The whole body is covered in dust, blood, and bruises.
two hundred. three hundred. Three hundred and fifty.
Was it less than an hour?
“…”
it hurts.
sick.
I feel like my whole body is being torn apart.
Even though I rushed like this.
Still, he cannot even straighten the ‘distance’ between himself and the other person.
An incredibly strong opponent. The gap is so wide that the opponent feels like an insect.
To the point where it felt pointless to even fight against this side.
“…”
But still.
Elijah took a deep breath and straightened his holy sword.
There may be many psychological mechanisms that support the human being Elijah Chrysanax.
‘…No matter how ridiculous the gap is.’
Somebody.
‘…No matter how much it hurts.’
Even if the opponent was always this wide of a gap, he was not afraid and rushed forward.
I endure the pain that feels like my whole body is being crushed, just because there is something I have to do.
-are you okay.
And to that kind of person.
A while ago, I heard something like that.
-You can do it.
“…I know.”
Grind your teeth.
I held on to my trembling legs. I stand up using my sword as a cane.
“…I know, teacher.”
The man acknowledged me. He assured me he could do it.
If you can’t endure even this much, you don’t even deserve to stand next to him.
When I think of that, my body becomes energized again. Raise your battered body again.
“…”
Take a deep breath and grab the holy sword.
Although my arms were so weak that they almost felt like jelly, I regained my posture.
“…Ugh!”
With such spirit and spirit.
Elijah moved forward without hesitation.
And then, the next moment.
-!
For the first time, part of the flame near Peinol was ‘cut away’.
“…uh?”
Elijah’s eyes widened.
Although it is extremely weak.
Without a doubt, it was the first blow inflicted on the opponent.
Right now, Feinol is just flinching and looking in this direction.
But, what surprised her even more than that.
“…”
She glared at the holy sword with sharp eyes.
Didn’t this just shine?
no.
I gained some strength while thinking about that, and immediately woke up.
No matter how much she fell in love with him, it had to be to some extent…!
[…That’s because the Holy Sword responds when the user’s will is strongest for generations.]
“W-wow?!”
Elijah looked at the holy sword in horror.
Unless she’s crazy.
Just now, a ‘voice’ was heard from inside the sword.
“…”
this.
Didn’t I just say that?
Did I say it clearly?!
Thinking like that, I was looking at the holy sword.
“…Who are you talking to?”
A familiar voice pounded in my ears.
Elijah was startled and turned around.
Daoud was looking at him with a puzzled look.
“As expected, should I say hero…? “I never thought I could do this on my own.”
“…teacher?”
Elijah said that, sounding like he was slightly choked.
I don’t even know why it looked like that.
I don’t even know why this man is here.
I don’t even know how I caught up.
I don’t even know what happened to that Hellguard guy.
There were a lot of things that needed explaining.
“…”
But somehow.
It must be because the ‘anxiety’ I felt when I saw Daoud before seemed to have been completely washed away.
“Yes, teacher. “I’m here to help.”
Just listen to what follows.
“It doesn’t change that you have to do the final finishing touches.”
Daoud said with a grin.
It was an expression that made Elijah’s eyes widen for a moment.
‘…this.’
This is the Daoud she knows.
No matter how difficult the situation is.
The appearance of a man who is confident that things will turn out the way he ‘thinks’.
“You look better, teacher.”
Elijah said that with a grin.
Even though he was completely injured, he reacted like this as soon as he saw that the man’s condition had improved.
I feel like my condition is quite serious.
“So, what’s the plan?”
“Oh, that’s right.”
Daoud answered with a still grin on his face.
Next, he raises his finger and points to Feynol.
The voice continues as if nothing had happened.
“I’m going to eat him.”
“…yes?”
“I went there, uh, what? I eat it. delicious.”
“…”
Elijah looked at Feinol and Daoud in silence, taking turns looking at them inside the pillar of fire.
hmm.
okay.
I eat it.
delicious.
“…Are you really a crazy pervert?”
“…Why do I have to listen to that?”
What if she overlooked it?
The thing about Dowd in this state was that he always said crazy things in most cases.
