Episode 78. Your true memories (1)
Chairman Alexia left the Imperial University.
I heard that it was to directly examine the situation of the war…
It didn’t sound very convincing.
Is there anything Alexia needs to move on her own?
‘Are you going to meet other demons?’
If so, that made sense.
Once they settle down, only the same magicians can move Alexia, who has been busy sitting down, eating, sleeping, and playing for decades.
Also, the madman ran rampant in the marsh and broke the promise between the demons.
not really. If that’s the case, the Tilfitz line will be the one to organize.
If not…
‘I do not know.’
There wasn’t much to guess.
Well, it didn’t really matter how Alexia moved now.
If it’s any other mine, at least the probability that Alexia will start a problem early converges to 0.
Rather, Alexia was closer to solving the problem with Tilfitz.
So you won’t have to worry so much.
“Mr. Heinkel.”
“yes?”
As I was heading to the underground training room, I heard Emilia’s voice from behind.
“Are you going to study today?”
“yes that’s right.”
“Mr. Heinkel…you don’t even notice the passing of time when you go inside. There’s no sound outside and there’s no window.”
“That’s why I went in. It helps me to concentrate better.”
“It’s good to concentrate, but I’m worried that it will harm my health. May I come in with you?”
I didn’t expect such a request.
I closed my mouth for a moment and pondered.
The thing that Emilia shouldn’t see inside…
there was nothing
These days, I’m just studying to prepare for the midterm exam.
On the contrary, if Emilia-san watched from the side, it seemed to have the effect of reducing the amount of time she had to take a break.
“good.”
“Gee, really?”
“Yes. You are welcome to come in.”
“Then excuse me.”
It was the moment when I was about to go down the stairs with Emilia, who seemed strangely excited.
I heard a ding-dong ringtone.
Me and Emilia looked back at the same time.
Emilia’s expression just looked a little unsettled, but I guess I’ve misunderstood.
“I’ll go out.”
“No, I’ll go.”
The fortress had too many guests.
In addition to the tree who visits almost every day, professors who ask many times about the work of the Whist Forest.
Without hiding my somewhat nervous attitude, I slammed the door open.
“Who is it?”
“It’s me, Schlus.”
“Me, me too….”
“············”.
Is it Iris and Erica?
I was just about to slam the door, but-
“Why? Why did you have a guest?”
“No uninvited guests.”
“Please take it!”
Erica’s shoes slipped through the crack in the door, so I had to open it again.
It was a really awkward combination.
Iris seems to get tired just by looking at each other.
Erica is a guy who doesn’t look for me very well, so I don’t think the reason for coming to see me is unusual.
“Shall I bring you some tea, Mr. Heinkel?”
“No. It’s fine.”
“Why don’t you give it to me!”
“I don’t have a car for you.”
“It’s cold, Schlus.”
Emilia smiled and went into the kitchen.
Realizing that he was joking, he seemed to be going to make tea.
In fact, it really doesn’t matter if you don’t.
“No, I really won’t give it to you…”
“Eat this.”
“······································································!
I spilled the cookies I received as a gift from Einz into the bowl.
As soon as I put the bowl on the table, I could see the change in Erika’s eyes.
right. There was a setting that this guy was obsessed with cookies.
Soon after, Erica started eating cookies one by one while staring at me.
It seemed like he could keep Erica quiet until the cookies ran out.
“It’s nothing special, I’m just here to chat.”
“Aren’t you busy preparing for the exam?”
“I’m ready.”
“I’m not done.”
“It’s a joke too.”
“············”.
Iris covered her mouth and laughed.
It was hard to tell if he was laughing because he really thought it was a joke or if he was laughing at me.
When she got a little upset, Emilia brought a teapot and a teacup and poured her tea.
Maybe it was because she was bored because she only ate cookies, but Erica was drinking tea like water.
I wondered if he came here to eat, but he didn’t say it out loud.
“Chat. Okay. Let’s drop it once.”
“Whoa. Okay. How can we always meet people only when they have a business? We should also meet on such a frivolous event.”
“Yeah. I heard that Erica was crying in front of my coffin.”
“Puh!”
This guy…
He threw the car on the floor and fell.
With a smile on her face, Emilia came with a mop and began to wipe the floor.
Wow. If it were me, I would have cursed once.
It was also a big deal.
“Pu-Hop……. uhhhh…why are you talking about that!”
“Didn’t I tell you to chat and chat?”
“Not about this. Something else.”
“That’s right. I was almost exhausted from crying.”
“Even Iris!”
When Iris’ firepower support was added, Erika immediately became crying.
yes i understand
Erica is such a sensitive person, so even if a classmate she knew died, she would have cried and cried as if her family had died.
Understanding and teasing are two different things.
“At that time, something just got into my eyes…”
“That would have been enough to make me blind.”
“Mr. Lee…! Stop making fun of me. Iris, I didn’t come here to talk like this.”
Then yes.
Gossip is bullsh*t.
There seemed to be a separate dragon.
“I wanted to enjoy chatting a little more…”
“Don’t be weird. Talk to me quickly.”
“Erica doesn’t tell me?”
“If I say it, it loses credibility. Quickly.”
“Okay. Don’t rush too much.”
Iris slowly drank the tea to the end.
At this point, I’m curious too.
What the hell did the two of you talk about and then come to me?
“I’ll excuse the monk for a moment.”
“···········?”
When Iris waved her hand once, a barrier was opened to obstruct the perception around her.
It looked like he was trying to keep Emilia from listening.
“I’ve seen the future, Schlus.”
“What kind of future is this again?”
“It was the future where you died.”
“If that’s the case, I don’t need to tell you. It’s okay if you save me.”
“Because you weren’t the only one dying.”
“What-“
“You murder Erica’s sister, Julia, and you’re arrested and put to death.”
“············”.
I couldn’t control the twisting of the corners of my mouth for an instant.
I’m crazy and angry at the same time.
who do i kill
“There is a good thing in jokes, Iris.”
“I’m serious.”
“Tell me it was a lie right now, and I’ll forgive you.”
“As I said the second time, it was a sincere story without even the slightest lie.”
“Get out. Both of you.”
I jumped up and forcibly lifted the barrier.
I wouldn’t be able to talk like a dog anymore in front of Emilia.
Even so, Iris was still sitting and chatting with cookies, and only Erica looked at the two of us and was restless.
“Gee, it’s true. Schlus. What Iris said…”
“How are you sure of that. Have you seen it?”
“No… But it’s my younger brother’s business. No matter how you look at it, it’s clear that the two of you are in an unusual relationship, but it’s clear that it’s not just that we’ve only seen each other a couple of times… I don’t know what it is!”
“As you said. I’ve only seen your face a couple of times. That’s all.”
“I can’t. Yulia… I feel like I’m having nightmares every night. I sleep crying while calling your name. And sometimes even weird names.”
“That’s something.”
“What did you say. Was it Kim…?… Jinu?”
“············”.
An indescribable feeling flooded in.
I could never be rational.
No matter how much I think about it, I don’t understand.
Do you have nightmares when Julia calls my name?
His name is probably Schlus.
But Kim Jin-woo… Do you sometimes call my name too?
under. f*ck.
That’s f*cking ridiculous.
You can’t hit my real name.
But why does Julia know that?
How does a kid who is nothing more than an extra in the novel know my name?
“Schlus?”
“······scram.”
I left the table and walked out of the living room.
Soon, I heard footsteps following me with Emilia.
Occasionally, Emilia called me, but I ignored them all and headed for the underground training room.
For now, I just wanted to be alone.
“Shulus!”
“············”.
Erica caught up with me and grabbed me by the shoulders.
I took a deep breath and looked back.
“The last time you met my mother. What was that?”
“············”.
did you notice
I treated Lady Liechtenburg like a poor servant.
Well, if that’s the case, I’d have to ask for it in such a hurry.
“Don’t worry. I’ll write a little and release it soon.”
“What are you…!”
Ignoring Erica’s voice, I immediately entered the training room.
Emilia also noticed my intentions, so she didn’t follow me any longer and bowed her head to see me off.
thud······
“Whoa.”
Silence fell with the sound of the door closing.
No, I must have entered the silence and sank.
In the calm and gloomy warehouse, I slowly walked around and took a deep breath.
“Calm down, bastard. Calm down.”
I’ve never shown my anger in front of anyone before.
It was rare to be so excited in the real world, let alone entering this world.
I slowly suppressed my anger and unraveled the tangled thoughts.
“Yulia said my name….”
– Julia knows Schlus.
-Schlus knows Julia too.
I already knew this.
If they’re both from Iceburg, that’s good enough.
But that’s not the problem.
– Yulia said Kim Jin-woo’s name.
– In the future, I will kill Julia.
No matter how much I thought about these two, I couldn’t understand.
why?
how?
As for the cause, I can guess…
“Miracle Ring.”
That damn ring.
There was only one.
