328. The Apostle’s Sign & A Woman’s Heart Shaking
***
Frostfall, a city in the north of the Empire, relatively close to the center of the Empire.
A long, straight boulevard. And the appearance of various shops and buildings attached to such avenues gave Frostfall a variety of colors, and many people everywhere were full of energy.
ㅡA top-notch leather bag made in the Leclien region of the east! For only 90, we sell it for Tue!
ㅡThe quality of the meat that came in today is really good! People passing by……
The touts to catch such a person were also prosperous,
—-Did you hear the news that an apostle has been appearing in the imperial capital lately?
—-I heard it. I wonder what the world is going to be like… Does it make sense that an apostle comes out from within the empire, not even on the frontlines?
The topic of conversation among passers-by was full of rumors that were spreading in full swing. All of their expressions were cautious, as if they had sensed danger.
Ttogak, Sarak.
The two figures were moving cautiously between them.
Took!
Then, when a boy ran brightly and bumped into them, he hurriedly handed over an apology.
“Oh, sorry!”
“…No. Are you okay.”
A woman who bumped into him replied calmly, and the boy inadvertently looked into his black robe.
The first thing I saw was pure white silver hair.
It used to be that the whole body was covered with a black robe, but when I looked up at it through the eyes of a child, I could clearly see its face there.
There was a girl who was still immature to be considered an adult, but still showed signs of maturity.
“……”
The boy blurted out admiration at the extremely nonchalant expression, and yet the beauty that reached the extreme that could not be hidden.
“Wow….”
Even in pure admiration, the woman gave a glance and moved her steps.
Sarak.
A car staring blankly at a woman whose child disappears at the soundless pace.
“Be careful in the future.”
“Oh, I see.”
A woman next to her follows and speaks to her. The boy blankly nodded her head.
… ….
Clap.
As they opened the door and entered the inn, the two women naturally took off the robes that were hiding themselves.
“Whoa.”
A girl with silver hair. Eucelia let out a sigh, narrowing her eyes blankly, and Azazel, who took off her robes after her, burst into laughter.
“Really, why are you sighing like that?”
“It’s just… I’m not used to being among humans either.”
“That too will gradually adapt. And it’s been quite a while since you said you took action like this, so it must be unfamiliar.”
As Azazel, who followed her words leisurely, swept her own long black hair with a big sweep, Yusilia stared at her and threw her words away.
“Azazel. You look quite used to humans.”
“Yes, that would seem. I’m used to being human.”
“Does your hatred for humans disappear just because you got used to it?”
When she threw her words out a little, she burst into laughter as if Azazel was being ridiculous.
“No way, it can’t be.”
“……”
However, despite her reaction, Yucelia looked at her carefully.
The Azazel that Eucilia saw before entering her human empire and the prayer she felt after entering were quite different.
Her demeanor was strangely soft.
Even if she deliberately looks like that among her humans, she tries to be that natural.
ㅡ To the point where Azazel feels like she really is human….
“By the way, Eucilia. Is there another future that you can see right now?”
At Azazel’s words that followed, Eucelia shook her head lightly, clearing her thoughts.
“No. Nothing will happen.”
“Yeah… Then it would be nice.”
“There is nothing to say fortunately, because I accompanied you to erase even the smallest incident.”
Azazel nodded her head while giving her a stare at Eucilia’s appearance without the slightest hesitation or hesitation.
“…Yes, it is. Still, I wanted to check it out.”
Azazel, who had said that, was thinking about it involuntarily.
She felt trapped in her own realm, then she must be killed, a human who almost certainly harbored the light that would become her main axis.
‘Agar Castle….’
While she even remembered her name, a strange feeling of uneasiness settled in her mind.
ㅡ Miracle.
Even thinking back to her, that moment felt like a miracle.
I saw miracles with my own eyes how much a human being can grow and emit strong light. For the past few days, thoughts of that person have not left me.
Awakening skills and man’s ability to deal with mysterious power….
“Three days ahead.”
“Three days….”
“People who will be the main axis die then.”
As Cilia, who spoke calmly, slowly laid her body on the bed of her inn, Azazel nodded her head.
Usilia’s words were like a final sentence.
In the unchanging future, there will surely be no setbacks.
With Eucelia lying on her bed and closing her eyes, Azazel’s laughter leaked out as she slowly took off her clothes.
“Ucilia. How about taking a shower and sleeping?”
“Why…? It’s a foreign substance, it will come out of my body naturally anyway.”
“…Still, there are foreign substances on the clothes.”
Sureuk.
… At Azazel’s persistent words, Yucilia opened her eyes and let out a sigh.
“Azazel. You sometimes get obsessed with weird things.”
“It’s not because I’m obsessed with strange places, but because I need it, because unnecessary smells can attract people’s attention.”
“……”
Cleanliness was something I didn’t pay much attention to when I was an apostle. In the dark, there was no reason to bury the smell or anything else in the first place.
However, as he walks around the city as an alter ego, dirt naturally accumulates on his body.
Eucilia, who had been looking at Azazel for a while, eventually raised her body from lying down.
Sureuk, sureuk!
She then began taking off the robe and her clothes without hesitation.
As soon as Eucilia, who had become completely naked without a single thread on, headed straight to the shower room, Azazel sat down on the bed that Eucilia was lying on.
“I wonder why he doesn’t know.”
While muttering, Azazel’s eyes were on the clothes that Eucelia had taken off.
When it comes to clothes, it was a black robe and a dress of the same color.
I don’t even have any underwear. And, in fact, I wouldn’t even say that the clothes she was wearing were that dirty. Still, Azazel felt something.
“Because I can see that humans are attracted to Eucelia.”
That was too natural.
Anyway, coincidentally or not, the men were trying to get closer to Eucelia.
Even though they were hiding each other with their robes, it was of little use.
To the extent that it can be said that they are almost instinctively drawn to it. There was something in Eucelia that was difficult to express in words.
“Maybe the ability you have isn’t just prophecy.”
Even as she said it, she felt strange.
As for Eucelia, she had more secrets than anyone else among the apostles. She has been around longer than anyone else, and has no proper source.
ㅡ Mystery.
It was also another word for Eucilia.
“…I don’t think it’s anything to worry about.”
With her little words, Azazel stopped thinking.

Since then, time has passed and the academy is located in the imperial capital.
“You did a good job listening to the lecture today.”
At Carly’s voice announcing the end of the lecture, energy began to circulate among the students again.
Sleep time. Most of the cadets’ complexions brightened at the fact that they could rest properly. Conversely, there were also cadets whose complexion did not improve.
“Hey. Are you really okay?”
“…It’s okay.”
Although answering David’s question in a daze, it was honestly very difficult.
It didn’t look like mine because my body was heavy. My condition was not so good that I wondered if my body would feel like this if I stayed up all night and spent the day again.
And the reason was simple.
From nob le mt l dot com
Just last night, the main reason was to visit the magic tower and face Ariya.
ㅡDoes it look pretty good?
As soon as he saw me, the voice that smiled at me made me feel uneasy. The anxiety actually happened to the point that the thought of trying to court her was overshadowed.
Because Arya increased the amount of mana injected into me.
It made me feel so cramped that I was now conscious of even breathing.
“It looks very difficult to me.”
At the repeated words, he swept my face in a daze and shook his head.
“No.”
“Is that so? Anyway, get some rest.”
“…Yes.”
After a series of words, David walked away, and I slowly cleared my seat and got up.
…Besides being so hard on the body, there was something more bothering me.
Help.
“…”
Knowingly, unknowingly, the eyes pouring down on me.
How the relationship between Milia and I spread. I definitely felt it today. In fact, it would not be an exaggeration to say that almost everyone knew.
Glance.
When I put my eyes on Milia’s place, I saw Luna and her talking to each other.
…I was worried even though I was a little affectionate.
‘Milia said it was fine.’
Is that really going to be okay? As I thought about it, my gaze soon turned elsewhere.
To Carly, who left the classroom after organizing the textbooks.
“……”
I felt cold just by looking at it.
And I definitely felt it today in the way she treated me.
She doesn’t have her private time with her, but she looks at me colder than usual. And, of course, the rumors about me and Milia that had spread so far would have reached her ears as well.
Slowly.
As I slowly got up from my seat… I thought I should act properly.
‘First of all, even if it’s a conversation….’
Shouldn’t we share it properly?
And now I felt I should go find her and talk to her properly.
