69 – Three Steps to the End
Kie Aek!― Kwae Aek!―
A sad cry spreads far and wide. Their identities are none other than witches.
Monsters that devour both humans and animals are crying out for help.
Could it be that a large-scale subjugation party came to the place where they were? Or did the hunters come?
“… Noisy bastards.”
It was neither. Rather, if it were those two, it would have been better for the Witchbeasts.
If that’s the case, I’ll at least resist. I would have fought for my life.
However, the existence in front of them was impossible to resist.
“Shut up your mouth, just die.”
Kyeeh!― Kieh!―
The owner of the tower. Whether I wanted it or not, it was the beginning of all demonic beasts.
Because of this, there was no way the witch beasts could resist in front of him.
All they could do was run away, or complain a little about why they were doing this, and then be quietly torn to death in his grasp.
“Damn it. f*ck. f*ck.”
Leone let out a cracked voice as he tore the monsters apart with his bare hands.
His eyes were filled with burning anger and deep annoyance.
Hell itself for the beasts, a brutal massacre for the viewers.
But now, this act was just a pitiful gesture to get rid of my feelings somehow.
It was nothing more than an effort to erase something from my head.
How much time had passed? Rion, freed from emotion at last, turned his head to see everything he had done so far.
‘I did it in a big way.’
I feel like I’m about to die because my emotions are running rampant, but there’s no way to resolve it.
In the end, the choice was to kill all the monsters that were roaming around the world.
As a result, they pushed into the area where monsters often appeared.
The surroundings were filled with the corpses of demon beasts.
Maybe the hunters will get scared and leave immediately when they see this.
“… It’s better.”
Yeah, it worked out rather well. In this way, too, Enlil could be of use.
When the monsters move more, they inevitably request support from the academy.
Good practical experience for candidates. And for Enlil, a suitable practice that prevents rust.
But that’s true to a certain extent, too.
Above all, Enlil needs to prepare himself more than fighting like this.
Under such circumstances, I can’t see her wasting her time elsewhere.
For that reason, Rion did not stop slaughtering the Demon Beasts.
*
In one place, around the time when a man was brutally hunting for someone.
At the academy, Enlil was preoccupied with clearing her mind and honing her mana.
At first, I was about to throw away the mana practice method he taught me.
But he used to feel like a strong man. That this method really works.
The owner of the tower told me that he wished he could defeat him.
‘He’s not even funny. A very crazy guy who is doing his own thing.’
Yeah, good. Don’t do what you want I will set up the blade of the dagger you prepared.
That way, at the last moment, I’ll drive that dagger through your heart and laugh to your heart’s content.
This is the end for the human you ignored and played with so much.
Still, anger boils over. I want to hit something and break it right now.
But Enlil suppressed his anger. I can’t see that I simply endured it.
It’s not about bursting, it’s just squeezing and extracting something more dense from it.
Colder, calmer, and colder.
Without forgetting anger. But to make full use of it yourself.
Enlil even changed the nature of mana to prepare for his final battle.
That’s how I spend the time when the sun rises, and even spend the night that comes.
In the end, since we are human beings, when the time comes for us to sleep.
“….”
Without a single breath of sleep, she stayed up all night with open eyes.
I can’t close my eyes. It’s so obvious what kind of scenery will unfold if you fall asleep like this.
Imagining that scene makes me feel like my heart is ripping right away and my body is collapsing.
I don’t want to suffer anymore. If you think about it any more, it will surely disappear as it is.
What drives her even more crazy is that she wants to see that person even so.
I want to see her face even once, hear her words one more time, and hug her one last time.
Why do you do that to the target you hate with anger?
‘I don’t want to sleep. I can’t sleep.’
Did she stay awake for days like that? Like a girl who fears that a monster will appear when it gets dark, she fears a nightmare and waits for it to be forgotten.
But her body was already pushed to its limit.
Since she fought so horribly in the tower, her injuries have not been treated, She
In the meantime, she used her strength again and literally smashed a place to pieces.
How could the body hold out like this in a situation where it was necessary to take a break right now?
Are you not even sleeping? No more. The body screams.
If you don’t want to die like this, shut up and go to sleep.
“….”
At last, yielding to her whisper, Enlil fell into a quiet sleep.
I’m afraid I’ll have nightmares again, but I’m afraid I’ll meet him.
Again, at the same time, if they really met, they would grab each other by the collar and curse and curse at each other.
In the end, you must have a heart that doesn’t know whether you want to cry or whether you want to laugh.
It’s strange. Today I feel strangely relaxed.
Sleep comes gently. As if someone is hugging you by your side.
Yes, this must be… It felt like lying on his knees.
*
A window opened carefully, and a man seen through it was Leon.
He watched Enlil from a distance of her and was worried that she might wake up.
But there was no sign of getting up, and the sound of his breathing changed evenly.
‘Is he asleep?’
Even he roughly expected that Enlil was pushed to the limit.
In the tower, they treated each other harshly, and as a result, they were seriously injured.
However, as soon as he came out, he was absorbed in destroying all memories and memories instead of treatment.
Of course, it must have accumulated a lot of fatigue over and over again.
Still, it was unknown, so Rion decided to prepare.
To use one’s own mana to cover Enlil as quietly as possible, and then give a sense of peace from the outside so that he never wakes up.
She thought that once her mana stabilized, her body would lead her into a deeper sleep to recover from her tiredness, so her worries would be lessened.
‘Is it done?’
Maybe she is pretending to be Enlil sleeping. Maybe she opens her eyes as soon as she approaches.
All sorts of questions have been raised, but she has come too far to back off now.
She didn’t want to come. She even considered it better not to.
But she’s like this, she comes and goes, and she thinks she’ll go crazy first.
I couldn’t get my mind off right after fighting with the monsters.
After all, isn’t it like this by secretly appearing in front of her like this?
“….”
Enlil fell asleep. Very deep. She is silent as if she is not even dreaming.
Leone, who had been staring at her, secretly checked her desk.
She then took a piece of paper from her bosom and picked up her pen and started writing something of her own.
I won’t be able to show you right now. Shouldn’t even look
I have no intention of writing the truth. There is neither space nor time for that.
However, if she sees this one day, by chance, she will be able to convey at least one of her sincerity.
I want to leave something that I couldn’t convey in writing.
Yes. I loved you, I love you, and I will always love you.
All lies, but only one. ‘My feelings for you were true.’
Meanwhile―
‘Ah.’
While asleep, Enlil involuntarily smiled.
Even though I hate it so much, even though I hate it so much, my heart finally calms down when I face it.
Is this due to anger or something else?
I don’t even know if I hate it or not, because of that.
A man who carefully writes down his feelings, and a woman who laughs and cries because of it.
They both now had only one left.
The end, or the truth.

“… I’ll be back.”
Compared to before, the momentum has decreased considerably. But it’s still sharp.
The other people flinched at Enlil’s words, then nodded as proof.
Until now, Enlil used to go home as quietly as possible at dawn, but she was different today. She
It’s like she’s saying that if she doesn’t make it through today, she’ll never come back.
So others were also thinking that today would finally end.
“Cheer up, Sister Enlil. I will see you again soon.”
“… Yes. I hope so.
Nodding his head, Enlil once again stood in front of the tower’s entrance.
Today is the last day. I won’t be going here any more.
The moment has come to put an end to it. In any way, in any direction.
Yourself and the man. One of them will disappear from this world today.
