Chapter 296. Short and concise (4)
Time passed too quickly.
At some point, when I came to my senses, I was holding Erica’s hand and walking down the dark alleys of the old town under a brightly shining sky.
Even when she first came in, Erica, who was nervous and wary of her, went somewhere, leaving only Erica, who leaned her head on my shoulder and hummed comfortably.
I wanted to stop by somewhere else before going home, but the atmosphere wasn’t like that, so I decided to escort you straight to the Lichtenburg mansion.
The way back was too short.
“Hey… Schluse…”
“Yes.”
“Today’s work. It’s not a dream, is it?”
“Why. Do you want me to do something that never happened?”
“Oh no?!”
“It’s not a dream. If you think I’ll forget it, should I tell you one more time?”
“What, what.”
“I love you.”
Her bangs slipped away and her lips pressed against her forehead, causing her Erica’s face to turn red in an instant.
“Well then, bye! See you tomorrow! Tomorrow… At school…”
“Yes.”
Erica hurriedly greeted me and went inside her mansion as if to run away.
As I was about to turn away, I was grabbed by Mrs. Lichtenburg.
I don’t believe in verbal promises or something.
I was asked to take a picture of the document that promised to be engaged to Erica, so I had to take it countless times.
This is irreversible.
My fourth wife’s seat is full.
On the way home, I couldn’t control the cold sweat running down my body.
I can’t keep this a secret.
Telling everything to Emilia made me feel like I was going to lose my temper for at least a month.
As soon as I got home, I told Emilia everything.
But unexpectedly, Emilia didn’t get very angry, and she didn’t respond in a barbed tone.
“Hmm. So, what did you like about Erica so much?”
“Huh?”
At this moment, I sensed that something was wrong.
Even if it’s wrong, it’s firmly wrong.
The moment I made a mistake, it was sure to go wrong, so I had to struggle to choose my words.
“Uh, no… I told you earlier. In order to stop Pleschette from playing solo, I have to use Lichtenburg as a check. Against my will, the people from my family are related by marriage. It will have a great influence in this magic society, so we got married.”
“I’m not talking about that now, oppa. Why are you talking back?”
“My, me? When was that?”
“Don’t keep trying to get away. It’s not a difficult question, brother. What did you like about Erica so much?”
“·······.”
That was a difficult question.
Because there is nothing bad about Erica except for that bad thing.
These days, even that scourge has gotten a lot better, and now it’s almost perfect.
Of course, that is not a reason for marriage.
No one wants to get married right away when they see a peerless beauty passing by the roadside.
“Why do you think about it for so long? You don’t have to think too complicated. I won’t get angry no matter what you say.”
“Oh. Really?”
“Sure. When did I ever vomit over my brother’s decision?”
“·······.”
That sounds like a lot.
There was a time when I completely overturned my decision by giving him sleeping pills.
Of course, I couldn’t say that in front of Emilia.
“Aren’t you going to get angry?”
“Yes. I’m asking purely out of curiosity.”
“Erika. I must have been nervous the whole time, so I was shaking. That’s why I thought I was wrong today. I won’t be able to hear Erica’s sincerity within today. He told me he loved me while trembling and crying. The trembling look was so pretty and lovely that I couldn’t stand it…”
“Can’t stand it?”
“Uh… A kiss…”
“Did you do it?”
“Yes…”
“Huh. That’s right. A kiss. It’s refreshing. I love you two.”
“·······?”

Emilia smiled and then she jerked away.
It was an emergency.
Even if it was pouting, it looked like it was pouting.
She was startled and chased after her, grabbing Emilia’s wrist.
“Emilia.”
“Yeah, why?”
“I was wrong.”
“What did your brother do wrong?”
“No but…”
“But what?”
“You’re angry.”
“I’m not mad at you?”
“·······.”
It was the worst.
It was the stage of laughing and getting angry.
Of Emilia’s pouting stages, it can be said to be the highest grade.
At this rate, he would refuse to kiss me for a whole month and even serve me poorly.
“I need to clean. Let me go.”
“·······.”
Without saying a word, he hugged Emilia from behind.
Emilia seemed to be trying to resist for a moment, but then she let go of her strength and leaned on me.
She stayed there for a while.
She put her nose in Emilia’s braid of her hair and savored her scent.
Emilia, who was shaking her body as if it was tickling, removed her lips.
“Brother. I was going to give it to you later… But it won’t work.”
“Huh?”
Emilia slipped something of her own out of her pocket.
It was a thick metal ring.
She was too big to wear everyday.
I didn’t know it until now because it was well shielded, but when she looked closely, she immediately recognized that it was an artifact containing magic spells.
“This. Actually… I was going to give it to you when I die…”
“When you die. How late were you going to give it to me?”
“I don’t know. Take it now.”
She bluntly held her hand behind her and picked up her artifact.
The moment my finger touched it, the spell began to activate with a crackling sound from the inside.
Is it an artifact that activates when my magic power is detected?
It was a moment of admiration, thinking that it was made quite elaborately.
“Ah…”
Light was projected in all directions, and a video spread in the air.
I don’t know when the hell I recorded it, the moments I had with Emilia moved and filled my field of vision.
I heard Emilia’s beautiful voice from here and there tickled my ears.
That’s all.
If you put her nose close to her artifact, you could also faintly feel Emilia’s body.
“Your brother will never change his resolution. You are very stubborn… I was worried about how to make sure that he would not forget me after I died. As long as I don’t lose it, it won’t be broken. While watching, listening to, and smelling it… I hope you don’t forget me. I hope you remember. Now, when you feel like giving up, watch this, think of me who supported you oppa, and regain your original intentions. .”
“Emilia…”
Emilia was slightly weeping.
Emilia says she no longer tells me to give up her eternal life. She
She was saying she would cheer me on instead.
She was just infinitely grateful.
Thank you so much for understanding the meaning of giving my life for Yulia.
It really was the perfect gift.
An artifact that can remind you of Emilia at any time.
“Thanks. But can I put more videos here?”
“Oh, no. Keep only the videos from when you are the youngest and most beautiful.”
“I don’t like it. I will continue to record and record it. I want to remember all of Emilia no matter what she looks like.”
“Seriously… Not mean.”
Emilia turned around to face me and smiled.
Beauty does not come only from external appearance.
As for Emilia, no matter how old she is or what she looks like, she will always be beautiful.
I hugged Emilia tightly and kissed her on the nape of her neck.
If I hadn’t met Emilia, how would I have lived?
I wonder if I was still living like a pathetic scumbag.
She was a woman who would not be enough even if I thanked her many times.

“Huh. Heh. Heh. Ehehehehe.”
“·······?”
Irene, who was about to knock on her door, was startled and froze on the spot.
Silly laughter leaked through the cracks in her daughter’s door.
No matter how blunt Erica is, I’ve never heard such a stupid laugh.
What the hell is going on inside?
Irene couldn’t bear knocking on her door and she quietly left the door, careful not to make a sound of her footsteps.
“Heh. hehehe.”
Meanwhile, back in the room, Erica was lying on her back hugging her pillow as she reflected on the day’s events.
She felt like she was dreaming.
Today everything seemed like a fantasy.
But the sweet touch that revived when I touched her lips was telling me that today was neither a dream nor an illusion.
“They say they love me.
Emitting her happy screams, Erica hugged her pillow tightly and stamped her feet.
Today, Erica herself felt like the happiest person in the world.
***
Vast plains.
In the middle of it was a large stone.
A man’s steps stopped in front of the stone.
-The magician who loved humans sleeps here.
“Damn it.”
A wild curse came out of the man’s mouth.
It was a phrase that made me laugh when I thought of what the owner of this tombstone had done.
A magician actually created a power that worshiped demons by giving humans power over a long period of time, and used this to try to overthrow the human nation.
More than the absurd plan, Till Fitz and her own stupidity in getting involved in it were even more absurd.
But knowing that she was stupid didn’t change anything.
If you’re an idiot, even if you’re an idiot, wouldn’t it be better to be a surviving idiot?
“Oh sh*t. Seriously… I’m more pissed off now that I’m here.”
The traveler, who was about to set the flower down in front of him, became annoyed and stepped on the flower.
I have come to wish the magician a peaceful rest.
I had the urge to dig him up and kill him once more.
In the end, isn’t it all the magician’s fault for getting into this stupid war?
It’s the magician’s fault that Tilpitz died.
“Is this in the plan, are you chew? Huh?”
Did the magician know?
That Schluss Heinkel would become an out-of-standard monster.
I would have expected that one human would overwhelm all the demons that once terrorized the entire continent.
“Of course it would not have been.
Spitting on the tombstone, the traveler turned his back.
I dug Tilpitz’s grave, and I also stopped by the magician’s grave, so there was nothing else to do.
“This is really the end.”
To win this war without sacrificing one’s life was too much greed.
Now I had to go beyond my life and risk more than that.
In a situation where defeat is already deep, what can’t be put forward?
The traveler decided to risk everything at this end.
Truly, everything for the individual traveler.
“I will bring you to the end of your name, Schluss Heinkel…”
Apocalypse. And the end.
Now it was time to pay for the name Schluse.
