I Can See the Comments on the Doomed Novel chapter 135

135 – Contract of a Dreamlike Night

Even though it took the form of a punishment for an emergency quest.

It wasn’t like being thrown into the underworld right away.

The grace of a day given to us.

It was too short a time to solve the hardships and follicles of the past.

On the one hand, I thought it was fortunate that I was able to rest even that much.

I don’t know what the Underworld is like, but for now, it must be a different word for the underworld or hell.

It was better to put aside the expectation that I would be able to rest peacefully like now.

We decided to rest as much as we could for the rest of the day.

Of course, there was still work to be done before that.

“Where is it?”

I set down the huge rock I had picked up nearby.

As a result of looking around the forest, I picked the biggest one.

Yuri lightly polished it with her sword.

Her skill did not dull just because her opponent was a rock.

The straight-cut rock instantly turned into a square shape.

“What is this?”

Pippi?

Eve and the rabbits tilted their heads as they saw the tombstone suddenly erected in front of them.

“Should I call it a grave? It’s like a memorial stone, if you have to say it.”

Although the sacrifices were minimized, there were many dead spirits.

The lives that were swept away by the quest and died without being able to resist.

Of course, I know it was inevitable.

This is such a world in the first place, and this novel is such a story.

Dead life is not limited to the spirits here.

In terms of numbers… To be honest, far more people on Earth would have died.

From the back of the written sentence.

There are more than one life that simply disappeared without making a sound.

‘Well, that’s something I can’t do anything about.’

It’s unfortunate, but I can’t even pay attention to that.

The realm I can take care of is only the beings I can see and recognize.

I didn’t think that was particularly bad.

First of all, I am not an adult.

Without thinking that everyone in this world needs to be saved.

I don’t even think that’s possible in the first place.

That must be the normal human way of thinking that can’t be helped.

Still, I feel pity when I see a life that has been extinguished right in front of my eyes.

I hope their lives are not worthless.

This was the meaning I left behind.

I lived here… Evidence that there were such dead lives.

“……There is no culture like this in our world. The body of a dead life simply returns to the earth, and the soul goes to heaven.”

“Well, I think so too. These things are for the living, not the dead.”

I also received help from the dead spirits first.

When the ‘Sanshin’s baseball bat’ was broken after hitting the text book.

If it wasn’t for the help of the spirits, I wouldn’t have been able to break the text.

This was a minimal return for the spirits who stayed until the end and helped us.

Of course they might be able to see this.

Maybe I’m not too happy about it.

But if I don’t do it like this, I won’t feel comfortable.

The will of those children still remains in this right arm.

“Still, if you keep looking at this and remembering it, you might be a little happy. If you can think of them once in a while, that’s enough.”

“…I see.”

Eve nodded her head quietly.

Her face contained feelings of sadness, longing, and gratitude.

It is said that Lupus, who served as her guardian, used up her power while sealing her Eve’s power.

Perhaps exactly when I ran out of strength… It was probably when I gave my strength to break the text.

‘Did he protect his master until the end?’

In the end, the boy’s choice was the right thing to do.

Thanks to the time he bought me, Eve was alive before I arrived.

I wouldn’t have expected Lupus to end up like this.

In the end, his willpower played a decisive role in saving Eve.

The Guardian left after completing her goal of saving her Eve.

“I will never forget Lupus no matter what.”

Putting the sword into the scabbard, Yuri added as if to say.

“The name of the guardian who tried to protect you was Rufus. His final momentum scared even me. He asserts himself as a former knight. He was clearly a loyalist with a cause.”

“Thank you.”

After saying that, Eve put her palms together in front of her slander.

The rabbits, who saw her, copied her.

We also prayed at the tombstone.

Eve said goodbye to those who left her first.

****

I don’t think it’s dark here at night thanks to the moon.

Rather than that, it feels cozy enough to feel a subtle atmosphere.

A man and woman were standing under the moon.

“Are you asking me to take you to the underworld too?”

“Yes, I can be of help, so it’s okay, right?”

At Eve’s bold words, Ji-hoon put on a slightly troubled expression.

It was night when the sun had already set.

The spirits treated Ji-hoon and his party who saved them, and held a festival with the condolences of those who left.

The time when the tired people started to fall asleep first after filling their stomachs like that.

I never thought that Eve, who secretly summoned her, would ask for such a favor.

“Is it okay to go to a world with a different divinity?”

“You are saying something strange. In the first place, the underworld is a world where the dead or gods live. You are rather abnormal.”

“That’s true, but.”

Actually, there were some vague parts about that part.

Eve is clearly a deity.

Originally, to follow and help Ji-hoon is to undermine the probability.

However, due to her injuries, Eve had lost much of her divine power.

In terms of pure strength, honestly, it’s worse than Yuri or Jihoon.

It is also the duty of a godhead to support the players he has contracted with.

However, my strength is lacking due to my own mistakes, so I will follow him and help him.

There are parts that are a little childish, but it doesn’t make much sense.

Now that the quest has progressed quite a bit, the Godheads are actively intervening in it.

In the first place, the reason for limiting the intervention of the godhead is that their power is so large compared to the player that it hurts the balance.

On the contrary, if the power is not strong, there is nothing wrong with intervening.

Eve also made this request because she knew that it was possible.

“I will tell you, my skills will be quite useful. If it were me, I could bestow protection on you, and I could use magic using water. I am also confident in defense magic.”

At the same time, she was also confident about her wisdom.

This choice is emotional, but if you are a man who is extremely calculating.

Objectively figure out your usefulness.

I will admit that it is good to be together.

“Well, I don’t mean to doubt your skills. I saw your ability, and I think it will definitely come in handy.”

That’s why, when Ji-hoon asked a question in reverse, I was a little taken aback.

“Then why do you want to go with us?”

Eve couldn’t bear to answer honestly.

How dare I say that?

I don’t want to part with you, whom I had a hard time meeting.

I want to follow you even if that place is the underworld.

I get jealous when I see you with another woman.

Somehow I want to be with you too.

There is absolutely no way I can say it.

Anyway, this dull man only sees himself as a child.

So, I can easily guess the answer he gave when he confessed his feelings.

That’s why I can’t say.

I don’t want to talk.

Confessing this feeling…At least it’s a long way off.

“…Because I am the godhead who signed a contract with you.”

A barely squeezed excuse.

But the reason was good enough.

Speaking that, Eve suddenly remembered that she had something to give to Jihoon.

Originally, it was supposed to be given as a surprise when we leave tomorrow.

Now that it came to this, it seemed that there would be no problem if I gave it now.

“And if you don’t mind, I want you to accept this.”

“Is this a bribe?”

“……I don’t like the choice of words. It’s the answer. Because as a godhead, you can’t live with debt.”

What Eve handed over while saying that was a sword.

A mystical sword that glows blue.

Jihoon, who received it, involuntarily swallowed his breath.

Because it was the weapon Eve used to stab herself in the chest.

“Hey, this.”

“It is one of my powers, the ‘spiritual sword’. As I said, it is a weapon that can kill even ‘God’.”

“……You want to give this to me?”

“Well, since I am the only contractor.”

The ‘Sanshin’s baseball bat’ originally used by Jihoon was destroyed.

We need new weapons to fight in the future.

But he was also prepared that it would not be easy to obtain another weapon of that size.

That’s why Eve’s present is definitely what Ji-hoon needs most of all…….

From noble mtl dot com

“Can I take this?”

There is no way Ji-hoon would not know the meaning of receiving this sword.

No matter how brazen he was, he was hesitant to accept this.

That’s why a question with a bit of concern and apology.

Then, this time, Eve chuckled and stood with her arms crossed.

Full of arrogance and bravado, her unique posture.

At first, he might have looked like a spoiled kid.

Now I know that’s the posture she takes to somehow stand still despite her small size.

With such a fragile appearance, she speaks with a very dignified face.

“Because you’re weak, I’ll be in trouble if I’m in danger, right?”

“… ….”

When she saw that, she smiled involuntarily.

I was able to know at the same time.

This child is speaking with much more determination than she thinks.

Then, as a contractor, she has to give a fair answer to that.

Jihoon reached out and took the sword that Eve had passed him.

I look at it and think about something.

It seemed like hesitating at first glance.

After a while, as if giving up on something, Jihoon opened his mouth.

“Hey, I’m not good at things like this, am I? So, I will only do it once.”

“Yes?”

Before Eve could even say the mysterious words.

Jihoon was already on his knees holding the sword.

In a posture similar to the oath of a knight that Yuri had shown before.

“I, Lee Ji-hoon, will be your contractor and sword, Eve. From now on, I will fight for you, and this oath will last forever until you reject Eve.”

Ji-hoon is just an ordinary human being. He

He was not a knight in his previous life, and he did not return.

That’s why it must be sloppy in the eyes of a real article.

But for Eve, who was here, it was more special than anything else in the world.

“Ah… ….”

Eve looked at Jihoon for a while, unable to think of words to answer.

He wanted to be the deity who shared the contract with him.

That heart is sincerity that no one can deny.

But I never imagined that the man in front of me would even swear to me like this.

Jihoon looked at himself.

Straight eyes and mysterious eyes meet each other under the moonlight.

When he realized that those gazes, this oath, were completely directed only at him.

Eve couldn’t control the overflowing tears.

He is a man who has only been seen through the screen.

He realized that he had been acknowledged.

“As me…Is it okay… As a goddess like me…Is it okay?”

“If I am a goddess I can entrust my life to, I am sure that you are the only one in this world.”

That recognition was the greatest reward to Eve.

As if embarrassed, as if he had no face, but with a teary face and a bright smile.

Eve nodded to her contractor.

“I am your goddess. This contract will last forever until the death of each other. Jihoon, let’s swing that sword to protect our comrades. Survive with all of us until the end of this destruction.”

“Yes, of course.”

In a forest lit by bright moonlight, a contract was made.

I didn’t write a contract.

It’s not like they cast a special spell on each other.

But this contract will never be broken.

Jihoon and Eve both knew.
