306 – Chaos (2)
A wingless angel is flying in the center of brilliant gray light.
A muscular angel, far from an ordinary angel. Just looking at it made me feel overwhelmed.
I stared at the scene blankly and realized the identity of the wingless angel.
There was no veil covering his head, and he seemed to have lost a lot of muscle, but it was a face I knew.
Rize, a nobleman who holds both the title of saint and saint.
She, who was completely invisible, saved us in a desperate moment.
“······Ah, grandfather.”
I was lost for a moment, but then I realized the most important thing. I quickly ran to Rod.
Rod’s shirt is already covered in blood. He was bleeding so badly that it was questionable whether he was alive.
The first thing I did was check whether he was breathing. He was completely unconscious and was not breathing.
Next, I looked closely to see if my heart was beating. I couldn’t feel my overall biological rhythm.
-······Exciting!
For a moment, I felt like my heart was pounding, and then I heard the faint sound of my heart beating.
It was a very small noise, but it was clearly audible to my ears. Even though everyone is dying, Rod’s heart is beating.
It appears that he has been hit by the purple curse and has entered a state of suspended animation. I have watched countless creatures enter a state of suspended animation.
It was similar to when animals hibernate to survive the cold winter. However, unlike those animals, Rod’s condition is serious.
‘I need to stop the bleeding first… No. Is hemostasis meaningful?’
I thought about the knowledge I learned at the academy, but realized it was useless.
If it were possible to stop the bleeding, Rod would have done it a long time ago. Otherwise, so much blood wouldn’t have been shed.
So what can I do now? First, I used my hand to close the hole where the wind would pass through.
It’s a bacterial infection, it’s a rash, and we need to prevent it from dying right away. However, I don’t know if the curse will disappear.
-Chiiik!
“Ahh!”
As soon as I placed my hand on the wound, I felt pain as if it were on fire. I was so started that I quickly withdrew my hand.
I looked at his hands in confusion and saw that the entire skin on his palms was badly burned. Apart from the bright red blood on it.
When I wondered if it was because of the purple curse, I felt someone next to me.
“Brother Sivar. Please pour your magic power into the wound.”
“E······?”
“Purple can be neutralized by red. Hurry before the curse reaches the heart!”
How do you know that? Why are you so late? Then what if something goes wrong, etc.
There were a lot of things she wanted to say, but I did as she said.
These are instructions from a saint and not from anyone else. And I have less experience than Rize.
-Chii Iik!!
I put my magic into the wounded area as Rize instructed. The smell of burning flesh pierced the smell of blood.
The pain that felt like my hand was burning was painful, but I was worried that the rod might go wrong.
But this is the only method that can be used right now. It feels like grasping at straws.
-Chii Iik······
As I endured the terrible pain, the sound of burning flesh gradually decreased. Has it really been neutralized as Rize said?
I endured and endured as much as I could. I sincerely prayed that Rod could survive.
With bleeding of this magnitude, it is not surprising if a disability occurs. However, Rod is far from an ordinary human.
Since it has reached the level of indigo, it will definitely be able to be restored to its original state. I hope so.
“I don’t understand. I don’t understand.”
It was when I was administering first aid according to Rize’s instructions. The lies that had been stuck on the wall reached my ears.
When I looked at the almost half-destroyed stands, I saw a lie walking through the haze. His condition could not be described as good even with empty words.
His entire body was completely charred and his brain and organs were exposed sparsely. The structure of muscles and bones his was clear
Fortunately, it was gradually being restored thanks to its excellent regenerative ability, as expected from a purple color. Even after receiving a direct hit from divine power, it has that level of recovery.
“He must have moved to the other side of the planet… How did he get there so quickly? He must have completely lost his sense of direction.”
“Chaos guided us.”
“It’s chaos… I can’t even curse. Tsk tsk.”
Lie clicked his tongue and showed a look of difficulty. Unlike other gods, he is friendly to Chaos.
Moreover, I had a strong feeling that it was not hostile to Chaos, but to Rize as an individual.
“If you want to fight, I won’t stop you.”
Rize threatened, turning his body halfway. Even his fists were clenched, showing his will to fight at any time.
Rize is the only indigo color that can compete with purple. Probably even Donggwijin could be done.
“Hmm…”
From noble mtl dot com
Lie faced Rize for a while and then glanced at me with an indifferent expression. I also faced him.
I couldn’t read the emotions in those purple eyes at all. I don’t know what you’re thinking.
“Are you really planning on embracing that child?”
“Yes.”
“If you look at the ugly side of humans…”
“I know. You don’t need to discipline me.”
“··· ···”
Lies kept his mouth shut at the clear yet harsh answer. The expression is still expressionless.
I was busy administering first aid while keeping an eye on them. Now is the time to stop the bleeding.
“What kind of bleeding… Luna! Go inside the sparring room and find some hemostatic medicine! Look around and you’ll find it!”
“Yes!”
“I will temporarily stop the bleeding. Let’s take off the shirt first.”
Just in time, Kara gave appropriate instructions. Luna took off Lord’s shirt as she went to get her medicine.
Because the sticky blood stuck to it, I had no choice but to cut it with a sword. Eventually, I was able to check his physical condition.
“What kind of wound is this…? A crack…”
“··· ···”
Around the wound where the purple spear hit, a spider web-like crack was engraved like a scar.
The area near the wound glows purple, and if it hadn’t been neutralized, the crack would have glowed purple as well.
What I’m most concerned about is the end of the crack. I don’t know if it reached my heart or if it barely touched me.
[Lee······]
Words of lies reached my ears. As soon as I heard those words, I quickly raised my head.
“You’re making a fool of yourself.”
“··· ···”
Rize was holding the mouth of lies, or almost her her entire face, with one hand.
It seemed that just when Lie was about to use his trick, he approached and caught him in an instant.
However, lies were not tolerated easily. A purple spear was pointed at Rize’s neck
In fact, it is a situation where both parties are holding each other’s lifeline. If the situation arises, I’m planning to at least make a Donggwi portrait.
“Please step down. This fight is extremely unfavorable to you.”
“··· ···”
“Isn’t there still a chance anyway? I will protect it every time.”
There was nothing wrong with what Rize said. You probably know that this is a lie.
The lies revealed through Rize’s fingers that she was still indifferent. However, instead of facial expressions, actions replaced his intentions
-Sweet
The spear aimed at the thick neck her slowly lowered. It means there is no intention to attack.
Rize also realized his intention and let go of his face her her her. As soon as he let go of his her face her her her, the lie flinched back.
“Anyway. That damned Malbonsae is still the same. Still better than that bitch over there.”
“··· ···”
“Right now, I’ll act like a normal human. But, saint, you know that…”
“Purple is different from ordinary life. “This is what you are saying.”
“You know very well.”
Lie raised the corner of her mouth. It looks like he’s laughing.
“All life is born from parents, spreads new life, and then falls. What a beautiful beginning and end this is!”
“··· ···”
“But not us. The appetite, heart, beginning, and end that all living things have are all different. We just do our job in silence.”
“Because you were born that way.”
“You could be like that too.”
Rise made no rebuttal. He just silently listens to the lies.
In some ways, he has a mind no different from that of the devil, but in fact, he is even worse than the devil.
At least the devil has a heart. A heart is a heart, even if it is very evil.
But purple has no heart. The end is to quietly fulfill the role given to you.
“Living life as a human? I’ve already failed. It seems fine now, but in the end, it’s only a matter of time.”
“I will stop it.”
“Among humans? From beasts that bite when they have served their purpose or show an opening?”
The lies revealed the hatred toward humans without filtering. However, each and every one of them is correct.
Humans, after all, are also beasts. An animal that eats when hungry, sleeps when sleepy, and stomps when hungry.
They create complex things with outstanding intelligence, but in essence they are no different from animals.
Sometimes they even do worse things than animals. These guys are not good at anything.
“You will become more and more disappointed. Your insides will feast day by day as you look at selfish people.”
“I guess so.”
“There will be many days when I have blood on my hands.”
“But it doesn’t matter.”
Rize slowly raised his fist and pointed at the lie.
“Even if your birth is determined, you can decide what you will become.”
“It’s a whale born between minnows.”
“But there’s no law saying you shouldn’t play with minnows.”
“··· ···”
Now it was time to be speechless with lies. The gap between lies has narrowed.
“As you say, humans are selfish and full of evil intentions. The concept of ‘lies’, the meaning of your existence, is a concept that came from humans.”
“··· ···”
“But sometimes you have to lie. Even if it is done out of selfishness, the premise of doing it for someone else does not change.”
There is a saying called white lies. It is a lie, but it is a lie that does not harm others.
When you have a bad experience with someone, imagine that someone else asks you about it.
A selfless person will tell a white lie to avoid harm to that person.
But that doesn’t mean ‘responsibility’ disappears. Lying always carries with it responsibility.
“Humans are selfish. With a selfish mind, they commit violence, with a selfish mind, they lie, and with a selfish mind, they sometimes cause irreparable harm to others.”
“··· ···”
“But with a selfish heart, we stand up against people who commit violence, with a selfish heart, we do not trust those who lie, and with a selfish heart, we inflict wounds that can never be washed away for the rest of our lives Can we really say that this is wrong?”
What is wrong is wrong. Humans thought that way as they built civilization and society.
If there were no law and no society, humans would be nothing more than animals. That is the way to live like a human being.
“Parents do anything to feed their children. Whether it’s stealing, lying, or killing. As parents, they may have done the right thing, but when others see it, it ends up being nothing more than a selfish act.”
Right things and selfish feelings coexist. It was selfish to change the judgment thinking that it was right.
Even if we build a huge fence called civilization, humans are ultimately individuals. This applies not only to humans but also to animals.
As long as ‘individuals’ exist, selfish feelings can never be abandoned. That is the principle of life.
“That sounds interesting. I have seen human cruelty with my own eyes. They created a slaughterhouse just for humans just because they were of different races.”
Lie back with his snort. It is actually one of the most vicious histories on Earth.
A madness created by a rare evil group that changed the very origin of civilization. It is the worst kind of madness that will never be seen again.
Rize heard those words and nodded. Then he hit it head on.
“Then let me ask you. Weren’t there any humans who prevented it? Even just a few humans?”
“··· ···”
“There must have been people who ignored it because they lacked power, because they were brainwashed, or because they had someone to protect. Even in a situation where the tone was that this was ‘natural,’ there must have been people who selfishly shouted, ‘It’s not right.'”
Even Nazi Germany, which brainwashed its entire population, was not perfect. Because it was impossible to control every individual.
A selfish mind is like that. There was bound to be a firm line for each person.
“As you said, humans are selfish. This will not change until the world is destroyed.”
-Pow!
A small explosion occurred in Rize’s body her her her her. A haze rose up and obscured my vision.
Eventually, the smoke cleared and Rize’s appearance was revealed. I was only looking at his back of her, so I couldn’t see his face of her.
However, if you look at her in her saint form her and not in her her martial form her, you can see that her will fight her her has completely disappeared.
It was quite a risky move, but Rize had the confidence to do it.
“But…”
The saint of ‘chaos’, not Kwon Seong, spoke out against falsehood.
“Because you are selfish, you can be altruistic.”
It was a chaotic statement that no one could refute.
