47. End of Summer (3)

How many times will an ordinary person face the mythical existence of the ‘Twelve Moon’ in life?

Anyway, even if we meet.

Can you believe in its existence?

The monetary value of all things in the world

Even if the legendary existence in the tale came to Jelliel of capitalism, who had been living with a magnificence, he would not have moved.

golden omnipotence.

If you don’t necessarily put a price tag on it, you can’t trust it.

It was a very realistic and rational way of thinking, and she lived without any doubt because she had never been ridiculed before.

It is often said that ‘money can’t buy happiness’. Jelliel didn’t believe it yet.

Because the more money she had, the happier she must have felt.

However… … .

As the world’s richest man in name and reality, Jelliel, who controlled everything in the world with money, came to realize late today that there are things that money cannot buy.

‘Walk along that path.’

An old man’s voice echoes in his head.

His true identity is undoubtedly the December 12th.

Although she met the existence that all wizards around the world longed for, it did not impress her much.

Just because I smelled hope from him… … I just quietly follow.

“Hey, Henry. Is it worth living these days?”

“Don’t talk. It’s because business went bankrupt this summer. Come on, give me some makgeolli.”

“tt. this is my friend So, I decided to quit my business early and start my own business.”

Southern Howell Plain, Myoho Lake.

Located in the heart of the southern plains trade route, Myoho Lake is a sizable village.

It took its place as a place where the beasts with tiger-patterned cat ears stood out quite a bit.

Shoot ah-!

Sitting in a pub on the street, wearing a hat and covering her face, Jelliel quietly sips water. I didn’t think of eating, but it was an unavoidable supply act because I couldn’t walk without supplying the minimum amount of nutrients.

She ate quietly and overheard the conversations of nearby merchants.

“Ehh… … . That’s it. I thought we would do business together.”

“Well, I guess the business was ruined because of the rain?”

“Well. It rains this much every year, and that’s not a reason.”

The young merchant drank high alcohol. The sake cup made of bamboo is impressive.

“Ugh… … . To be honest, I don’t have any problems with my longsword Wan.”

“Not all failed things say that.”

“No, because it’s real. This time, the Windsang Association did a large-scale business of coated umbrellas. this is a very reaction

I liked it, so it was a big hit.”

“By the way?”

The young man looked around and whispered in a low voice.

“… … At the top of the star cloud, I shook the plate very well.”

“What? Are you there again?”

“okay. It overlapped with the items released by Star Cloud this time, so they turned it upside down to prevent business at all. ”

“tt, you selfish bastards.”

“They always do. If they think they will lose even a little, they sell

I mean overturned But again, the power is so strong that we can’t do anything. What can I do?”

Moongrass!

“..”

“What, what?”

The merchants, who were quietly mocking the star clouds, were startled by the sound of the water cups falling from the side.

“… … sorry.”

After quietly apologizing, Jelliel stood up a glass of water and wiped the table with a tissue.

fingertips tremble

Their conversation, familiar content.

it’s bound to be

that… … Because it happened under Jelliel’s instructions.

My father has always led the business with integrity, so he doesn’t do such dirty things.

However, around the time she was able to think as a merchant, the star clouds had been shaken by her father’s stubbornness.

‘If you have money, you can do anything.’

There have been times when I have killed people myself, and there have been times when I have brought down an entire company. There was no hesitation in his actions as it was Jelliel, who had no sense of guilt.

“Uh-huh, it’s a big deal. My wife and children are waiting for me at home, but it seems that food is running out even this winter. Heating is something you have to worry about from the beginning of the meal.”

“tt. Don’t worry. I’ll help. How would you like to work with me until the business is restored?”

“… … Thank you, really.”

“What are you thankful for? You saved me back then, so you’re helping me like this, so in a way, you’re saving yourself. Heck, wasn’t this just a little cool? I will write it in my autobiography later.”

“If it wasn’t for the last words, it would have been perfect.”

“Ha ha ha!”

The last conversation ended quite warmly, but maybe others do as well.

Even at this moment, somewhere invisible to the naked eye, many people will suffer from poverty and die.

It could be because of Jelliel.

It may not be, but… … .

What is the reason for the white waves crashing in her head over and over again?

‘… … I can help.’

Get up right now and give the young merchant some gold nuggets to save him. Anything is possible with her capital.

“Oh my gosh, this business sucks…

“Ehh. This is the game these days… …

“The old butcher who left to trade

how was it?”

“It was ruined.”

It’s not just young merchants. People were screaming in pain everywhere.

The above story was not limited to Lake Myoho.

Jelliel crossed the Howell Plain on a journey to recover the white yewsul, passing through numerous tribes, villages, and cities, and they all had the same concerns.

and… The most representative reason for their difficulties is their group

It was because of a business policy.

Something slowly builds up in her mind.

Then, suddenly, a certain certainty came to me.

‘… … I can change it.’

It was not something that money could buy at will. I’ve recently come to realize that, but the world still goes back to gold.

If you could change the world with your overwhelming wealth… … .

Surely, the boy would be delighted. He takes care of himself for others before taking care of himself.

Because he was a man who knew how to sacrifice.

Jelliel crossed the Howell Plain after walking for a long time. Even in the rainy morning, in the foggy dawn, and in the middle of the night, when the weather is clear and the Milky Way Bridge is spread out.

A completely natural base where no magic train and warp hall are connected at all.

at the end of it.

– Here you go.

Jelliel was finally able to reach her destination.

A cliff rising through the clouds.

In the pure white temple built on it, the old man he had seen before was waiting for Jelliel with his back.

He nodded as if to follow the girl and pointed straight ahead.

At that place… … Some stairs were spread out. It was a stairway to heaven.

-Someone saw this and said it was a stairway to heaven. That’s absurd. Heaven is the underworld, foolish people.

The old man’s jokes weren’t funny, but Zelliel laughed.

-It is a road to the past. You go there yourself, and bring Baek Yu-seol.

The stairs climbed up to that high in the sky, but there was no end in sight.

– There is one thing to keep in mind.

He said with a bitter expression to Jelliel, who was facing the stairs.

-I’m a drunkard and a gambler, but it’s because I’m a divine being who touches the constellations in my own way. Those who are full of sins and karma cannot step on these steps.

“… … Why?”

– Because if you step on it, it hurts more than you die. But looking at your contemplation, you have accumulated countless karma in your life.

Because it was true, I couldn’t refute it.

— You could… really die. This is not a job that a high elf who has only lived for half a hundred years can sustain.

“I could.”

– okay. If you have the courage, atone for this pain. All the despair and sorrow they suffered must be completely contained.

“no.”

Shaking her head, she said with a firm face.

“I will accept this pain because I have committed it, and I will not atone for it in this way.”

-… … then?

“I will atone in my own way.”

You can’t give them back everything they’ve already lost.

She will have to live with her karma for the rest of her life.

So, take off the mask and throw it away.

You will dedicate yourself to the world in the only way you can.

“This pain… This is the punishment I deserve.”

Jelliel took off her shoes and put her feet on the stairs without hesitation.

That moment.

A terrible pain passed through my soul, as if my whole body had been sawed with a saw.

“..!”

I opened my bloodshot red eyes, and

The woman took one more step.

Screams don’t come out

one step.

Another step.

Closing her eyes tightly, she climbed the stairs.

Accept all suffering.

Now I have no intention of running away.

Rather than flee, I would rather fall and die.

But you cannot die here.

If I die here, the Baekyu theory cannot return to this world again.

because it might be

Hell spread with every step I took, and I wanted to sit down screaming with every step I took.

Be patient.

‘I don’t deserve to sit down.’

Many people have felt this pain because of me. The blade of emotion that had pierced through the cracks in her parched heart cut through her soul, but ironically, it was also because of her emotions that she was able to endure.

longing for someone.

how high did it go

She didn’t look at the destination.

Would it be correct to say that there was no such bird?

Because it was a miracle that she was alive, her soul was torn to shreds and only barely survived.

Her breath was suffocated, her feet were numb, and another sadness and despair that dug through the cracks in her heart repeatedly whispered to her to give up, but now she could not stop.

Can I really say that it is a will? No, now really… It was driven by instinct.

Then, the last moment.

I didn’t even have the strength to lift my feet anymore, so my ankle caught on the stairs.

‘ah..’

I felt it.

If you fall like this, you will never be able to get up.

‘I can’t… …

If I fall here, no one can save me.

However, she did not even have the strength to correct her leaning body, so she surrendered herself to the providence of nature.

dump!

… … But, very strangely.

I thought I fell, but it didn’t hurt at all.

I’ve been through so much pain so far, so maybe this is nothing at all?

“… I waited for someone to meet me, was that you?”

At the sound of the voice, Jelliel slowly opened her eyes. Close enough to touch… … There was the boy’s face.

succeded.

He climbed and climbed the endless stairs, and finally reached him.

Powerlessly embracing Baek Yoo Seol’s arms, Zelliel smiled bitterly. It was the most surprising and strange sight in the world, so Baek Yu-seol was truly astonished.

“Come on? Like someone who ate vegetable hoppang without vegetables.”

I’ve been wanting to meet you so much, but at the most, it’s a joke that it’s not cool and funny.

even to that point.

It was so white, it was white, and it was undoubtedly because it was white.

Jelliel burst into tears and smiled.
