299 – Day 2 (5)
“This is terrible. “Are those the words of someone who was reincarnated as a Shinigami?”
She was a woman holding a brilliantly shining holy sword, but instead of swinging the sword, she lowered her sword and muttered. The Shinigami’s divine power that had surrounded her had already disappeared without a trace, and when she closed and opened her eyes, she saw Evan Brown’s party hall again.
Perhaps the Shinigami wanted to live a little longer by gathering up her divine power that made up her divine realm. But then what? Extinction is already confirmed.
“They say that when people die, they go to the afterlife, but where do gods go when they die?”
“I don’t know either. If you say something like that in a church, it could be considered blasphemy. And in the first place, it is unclear whether it is true that people go to the afterlife.”
The approaching wizard watched the rare scene of a god disappearing with his eyes sparkling. In fact, the warrior party had competed against a Shinigami named Blood God Atorije before, but at that time, there was no need for Parnell to use his secret magic like now.
At that time, Kyle, or to be more precise, the person behind Kyle, forcibly achieved Buddhahood. There was no room for anything of the kind to occur.
The reason why I am remembering what happened back then is because what I once thought was just a dream was not a dream but reality. So, in fact, as this sacred area collapsed, the hero party internally became quite prepared. Everyone had made a firm decision.
I don’t know if it was the harmony of the gods of heaven and earth, the help of heaven, or some other reason, but I quickly concluded that this state that I had temporarily regained would return to its original state.
I thought that the Holy Sword and Demon Killer, which had already been broken by Grimudo, would also be broken again, and that was a reasonable guess.
That perfectly reasonable thing should have happened according to reasonable predictions, but it didn’t.
The Holy Sword returned to reality but was not broken. The Demon Killer was still fine. Since the state had not declined in the slightest, I actually had an idea.
“Look at that. “Now I can see the soul of the Shinigami.”
The Shinigami, who wore resentment like armor and converted the power of that resentment into divine power, returned to his original form only now that all his power had been used up. The young and bright boy disappeared, and only the crying bodies of babies remained.
Just when the spirit body was about to crumble, a bright light suddenly illuminated the dark island. Is it now time for the dawn to break through and the dawn of dawn to shine?
People who instinctively looked toward the east only then realized that it had not been long since noon. It was a long way before dawn.
That light appeared not from the east, but from the imperial palace, and soared high into the sky. In the past, the beacon of the sanctuary that a priest had left in the imperial palace returned to the sky, briefly creating a pillar of light connecting heaven and earth. The miracle that shouldn’t have happened in royalties has done its job and has now disappeared back to where it should have been.
And for just a moment, this reality was connected to a space beyond life and death. The babies’ ghosts crawled towards the pillar of light as if they were drawn by the warm light.
Kisea and Leon, who had been chatting at the amazing sight, jumped up and headed towards this place. Their eyes immediately opened wide. So, they are neither blind nor blind.
“This is the priest’s divine power!”
“It’s true. Is it here? Could it be that Roca has already returned here?”
Kyle, to be more precise, I have experienced so much of the divine power of the person behind him, so there is no way I would be confused. It is so different and powerful from the sacred power of other gods that even if one wanted to confuse it, it would be difficult.
She also noticed Kisea and Leon, who had only been with the priest briefly. So there is no need to mention a warrior party. No matter how many years it’s been around, I wonder if I’ve already forgotten it.
It’s just that I didn’t expect to meet again like this at a time like this, so of course I was embarrassed. Of course, they had no intention of never seeing Kyle again.
But I swear, that was definitely not the case now. If I ever see him again, what should I say?
Should I apologize for driving him away without even looking back?
Or should we say thank you for restoring their status?
Or should I shamelessly ask for it? The saint who became a lark was also a saint, but Lucia was especially anxious. This was a matter for her family.
But when they actually faced each other, they couldn’t say anything.
No, I couldn’t do it.
“You, you…”
The starlight shattered and fell like snow. And like melting snow, it melted into darkness. Anyone could see that it did not look like a living person; it was closer to light itself.
And that was right. He gathered the remnants of starlight that should have already disappeared and appeared for a moment in place of his body, so now his body is just a literal light.
Like starlight, it is not that bright. Instead of being so brilliant that it brightened up the sky, it was quiet and subtle.
-I’m glad to see you again before I leave. Nice to meet you, everyone.
He glowed faintly, and in fact, he had already recognized everything. After he parted ways with him, he had some idea of the hardships this party of warriors had gone through. I generally figured out what happened that caused the Holy Sword to break, the Demon Killer torn apart, and the state to fall.
However, he did not bother to talk about the hardships and hardships. He did not embarrass the warrior party further. He looked at the warrior party, who was speechless for a moment, then turned his attention to the two beastmen, who were also speechless.
-And Mr. Leon and Mr. Kisea. I’m glad we had time to say hello before we left.
In fact, saying goodbye is something that is difficult for the person doing it willingly. The reason I put off visiting Roka until the last task was because I didn’t have the courage to say goodbye to the child.
But still, it had to be done. Now, leaving for a place that cannot be reached, a place that is not part of this world, is different from death, but it is also not different from death.
If you don’t do it this time, you probably won’t be able to do it again.
Because I would have to leave and be known as just a dead person.
“You, you… What does that look like…”
“You’re leaving? So suddenly? Is that what you mean when you say this is the first time you’ve seen each other in a while? Can’t you do something like resurrection? “Just looking at you, you’re not dead…”
The mage raised his voice, pushing past Yuri Nel, who was astonished, but was momentarily speechless and covered his mouth.
So, what… Should we call that state?
Angel? Holy Ghost? Or, God?
The fact that the Magic Tower was a group of wizards that existed before the empire was even established, and that it was a group that gathered knights from all continents did not help at all now. In any mysterious tale, there were no words that could express that appearance in one word.
“Anyway, the appearance just changed. Can’t I just come back? “Just as we know.”
Because he couldn’t guarantee, he didn’t say anything. But Yurinel figured out the answer just from that look. Her expression darkened somewhat.
Although I never saw that childhood friend as a person of the opposite s*x, I liked him enough as a person. He liked Parnell and Lucia just as much.
It is a world where there is no one to trust, and even people in religious denominations are often dark-hearted. There have been few people in my life whom I could truly trust.
“Are you sure you want to go…? Well, I don’t know where I’m going, but could you possibly prepare a place for me there? Since you are clearly going to a good place, will you accept me if I go there when I die?”
Next to me, the wolf hesitated and then quietly made a request. Actually, if you think about it, what use is it that you now have the title of Viscount and are a Master of the Realm?

Once you die, only the afterlife is important. No matter how much glory you enjoy in life, it is over when you die, so is it such a great desire to want to see a good situation after death?
The three members of the warrior party looked astonished when they saw the wolf sneaking into heaven. They themselves thought their facial skin was thick, but today they saw the real thing.
“We still know each other, but if we die, we won’t pretend not to know each other, right? “Be sure to remember the two letters of the name Leon, and don’t forget them when you go.”
“I will hold a memorial service every year in my territory, so do I have to send it to a good place later?”
Although he was said to have fallen, Parnell, who was born into a royal family, was uncomfortable looking at him and turned his head away. Lucia, who came from a prestigious family, also cleared her throat and looked away.
I didn’t know how Kyle got to know these people, but she wasn’t really curious. I didn’t have the slightest desire to become friends with them.
-I’ll try… I’ll try.
With an expression that could neither laugh nor cry, the priest muttered. Still, thanks to this, the atmosphere of the farewell, which she thought would be heavy, became somewhat lighter. Now I felt like I could leave after saying goodbye with a more relaxed mind.
“Hey, I also have a favor to ask. No, I’m not asking you to send me to a good place later, I mean…”
Thanks to this, only Lucia, who already had a favor to ask, looked embarrassed. She had the courage to lunge at her messenger, but she did not have the courage to face her priest who was staring at her intently.
She herself was embarrassed, wondering how on earth she should tell this story. No matter how hard she tried to get her words out, her mouth wouldn’t fall.
“Lucia’s family. I’m under the polymorph curse. “It would be embarrassing if others found out, so he didn’t tell us and hid it from you.”
“Parnell!!”
“If I had asked you before, it would have been possible with just one word, but because I didn’t say that one word, it ended up like this. If you keep hesitating like that even now, you may end up not doing it at all, not just not doing it at all. Kyle, the polymorph curse placed by Grimudo. “Can you release me?”
Just one word was enough to answer.
The priest just smiled and nodded his head.
-Of course.
