141. Farewell
The war is over.
Funny enough, it happened in a short time like pouring rain suddenly stopped, so those who haven’t yet escaped from the heat felt awkward.
Even after the rain stopped, the horrors of the war still lingered in the Griffin Kingdom and the Great Forest of Marias, like rainwater remaining in puddles, giving off the bitter smell of blood.
A noble from the Griffin Kingdom.
Romerjan, Harroin, and Boman were the first to be arrested and taken into custody. It will probably head for Griffin’s Execution Ground.
When I met them separately in the forest, they confessed to me that this invasion was part of negotiations with the German kingdom beyond the desert.
Since they were three people who had no way to survive in the Griffin Kingdom, if the Marias were captured and part of the Griffin Kingdom’s land was occupied, the German Kingdom followed suit.
However, the German kingdom judged that there was no hope and unilaterally cut off ties with the three people, and eventually became abandoned.
It’s funny, but the idea of using the Marias to negotiate with Zeerman over the land of the Griffins itself, apart from being stupid, made me think that it was a big liver.
They think that it happened under their own initiative, but Dante’s warlock must have intervened.
‘Perhaps that man took the lead.’
Now, a black magician belonging to Dante who died without being able to overcome the pain because all his limbs were burned.
I took his soul along with Valkzaar. It was to prepare for the fight against Dante.
‘Dante is moving too fast.’
The German invasion plan itself was not a big surprise. Because it’s in the main episode.
But it’s faster than you think.
At least in the second semester of the third year, a story like Queen German, which is the starting point of the episode, will begin, but it is still the second semester of the first year.
Two years or so quickly.
You know that Dante’s side is making various movements, being conscious of my existence as a memorial service.
But I didn’t know that beings like Horua and Valkzaar, who are not even mentioned in the game, would pop up.
‘It means that there may still be many strong people I don’t know about.’
I slowly made my way out of the Great Forest of Marias, wondering what the hell had happened to this continent.
The situation was left to Gloria to sort out, and Illuania had already left first for protection.

Maybe it’s because I came out a little late, but it’s already dawn.
The air, which had been humid due to the rain, now feels a little fresher.
[Deus!]
Whiik!
Something flew through my body.
“hmm?”
I was so embarrassed that I couldn’t help but let out a subtle exclamation.
When I looked behind me, there was a dark mage struggling in the air.
Wow!
After that, a heavy shock hit my body as it was. Unlike the Dark Spirit, the weight and warmth felt clearly.
“Master!”
Findenai, whose tobacco scent had faded, rushed at me, wrapped her hands around my neck and both legs around my waist, and hung danglingly.
“… … .”
I was a little taken aback by the unexpected welcome. Finden-Ei muttered, burying her head in my chest for no reason.
“Good job, really good job.”
“… … .”
“sh*t, the owner doesn’t look good with something like a massacre. I’m going to do that, so just drink hot tea next to you and cross your legs.”
I can feel the rare relief in her voice and how much she cared for me.
Is that why?
Feeling awkward for no reason, I rather opened my mouth coldly as usual.
“Unless you brewed tea.”
“under! Damn it!”
Finden-I leaned forward with her hips bobbing at my words. I was already exhausted, and my strength was not good, so my body tilted backwards due to the sudden shaking.
Quadang!
Even when I fell, Finden Ai’s hand supported the back of my head, so the impact wasn’t great.
It became a situation where she climbed on top of me.
A mischievous smile hung on the lips of Finden-Eye, who slightly pulled away and looked down at me.
“Look forward to it. I’ll make sure you can’t live without the tea I brewed for you later.”
“Haa, get out of the way.”
When I sighed and got annoyed, Finden-Ai laughed once more for no reason and rubbed her butt against my waist.
“Are you standing?”
That was it.

My mana pushed her away, and Finden-Eye immediately rolled on the floor, letting out a miserable groan.
“Ouch!”
“You crossed the line, this month is a pay cut.”
“Wow! Oh, I got dirt in my mouth! Twoet! less than that? I rolled on the battlefield and my salary decreased!?”
I stood up, brushed off the dirt from my body, and tried to head forward again, but this time the black robed woman was glaring at me with her arms crossed.
[You know I found you first and flew to you, right?]
“okay.”
[If it was originally, I would have been in that position.]
“What does that mean?”
[Really, it’s annoying.]
Even as she speaks, she sneaks up to me and extends her hand.
I felt a sense of rejection right away and tried to pull my body back, but the black spirit made a noise and took a step closer to me again.
Took.
A hand that feels heavy.
I could feel the small weight and light warmth of her hand on my head, probably because she had become quite skilled at handling mana.
[You did really well. And thank you.]
“… … .”
[You just need to stay like that. Lofty and beautiful.]
A faint smile was visible through the black cloth. I could sense that the Dark Spirit was also worried about me in a different way than Finden Eye.
[Not as a black magician, but as a memorial service.]
I suddenly thought of that when I was watching the Dark Spirit.
The Dark Spirit is with me to see the end of necromancy. If her own resentment is fulfilled, she will rest.
The woman who will eventually leave.
I’m moving towards the truth of necromancy, and I don’t know what lies at the end yet.
One thing is clear, that parting with the dark mage was prepared right there.
“This path of mine, in a way, can be seen as comforting you.”
Are you surprised by my words?
The dark wizard’s eyes trembled for a moment, then he smiled and nodded.
[You can see it that way.]
I didn’t even bother talking about it. Another emotion of unknown meaning was welling up in my heart.
Since I was already mentally exhausted, I turned my eyes away with greed that I did not want to become more tired.
Saint Lucia also came to meet me belatedly and healed my wounds. because I was too tired
I didn’t even eat, I simply washed up and went back to the tent and closed my eyes.

Maybe it was because he went straight into the Great Forest of Marias after completing the memorial service.
The fatigue that had piled up more than I thought came rushing in.
* * *
I’m not sure how much I slept, but I could tell that the people around me took care of me pretty diligently while I was sleeping.
It’s no wonder that my back hurts from sleeping on the bed in the tent, but there was no such stiffness, and it wasn’t particularly cold or hot.
Wake up as clean as if you woke up from sleeping in a mansion rather than the damp discomfort of a tent.
There was no one inside the tent, but it was bright outside without a lamp, as if the sun had risen.
I wake up, tidy up my hair, and go outside, and the bright sunlight penetrates my eyes.
‘He slept for several days.’
How does the sunlight feel so awkward? I felt like a vampire, and my stomach was quite hungry.
“uh? woke up.”
Findenai, who was smoking a cigarette while squatting outside the tent, probably borrowed it from another soldier, found me.
I woke up, so I blew Finden Eye’s tobacco far away with mana to find a persimmon.
She fidgets and looks at her hand holding the tobacco with empty eyes.
“f*ck, I barely got it.”
I ask, ignoring the reaction of Finden Eye, who grumbles that he has taken a sip.
“How much time has passed?”
“Two days, master.”
yes, two days.
Thankfully, not as much time had passed as I thought, and I opened my mouth again.
“Where is Illuania?”
“Don’t worry, Illuania and Sevia are all fine. Eat rice first. Look at that swollen face.”
I must have said it out of concern for Finden Eye, but I shook my head.
“No, that way is more urgent.”
There is still one soul left unresolved.
Upon hearing my answer, Finden-Ai sighed and then shouted loudly.
“Hey, Owen! Get your rice ready! Going to eat soon!”
“OMG! Yep!”
Owen’s voice came from somewhere. It seemed that he was still afraid of Finden Eye.
“Let’s go, I’m going to finish my work and go eat right away.”
“okay.”
Finden Ai, who guided me to a huge tent. There was Illuania holding Sebia and the Dark Mage guarding her side.
“Oh, you’re awake!”
Illuania welcomes me.
I wanted to take care of myself after giving birth in a good place rather than a place like this.
It seemed that he was waiting for me, who was asleep.
thank god.
“Illuania, there is a soul left in this world to protect you and this child.”
“Yes, I know. Even at the hotel, he protected me.”
“And soon, the woman will fall into a deep sleep.”
“… … .”
To protect Illuania until I see the child come out of the world safely and smile.
That was the promise me and the burnt woman had made.
“For a moment, will you give the woman a chance to hold the child?”
It was only natural that Illuanian’s permission was required, so I asked politely.
Illuania smiled and nodded.
“sure. Sure.”
I immediately looked at the Dark Spirit. The reason she was here was to keep the Guardian Spirit from sleeping.
A guardian spirit woman who reappeared with the help of the Dark Spirit’s mana.
Because she had properly received Horua’s flames to protect Illuania, her hideous figure of resentment from before had disappeared.
It was all I could do to keep my spirits up in a cold sweat.
I reached out and took her into my body.
Just like Owen’s grandfather, Oster, possessed his hand.
This time, I entrust my body to her guardian spirit.
Reach out slowly.
Illuania handed over Sebia wrapped in a wrapper.

My hand holding the child sweeps the child’s forehead against my will.
Wow!
Sebia smiled at how good it was.
Various emotions that are not mine spread inside.
Relief, gratitude, joy, happiness.
and regret.
[ah.]
A woman’s voice echoed inside me. It wasn’t because of the pain of having half of his body burned by a burn.
A woman who wandered even after death with only regret and tenacity over the loss of her child.
[Would my child be this pretty too?]
In response to her teary-eyed question, I nodded slightly.
“clearly.”
Her feelings spreading inside me become one.
[thank you.]
end it.
The woman who had fought for her child even after death slowly closed her eyes and went to rest.
:’>
Oh damn, she went to rest huh. Good job 🤼
