“… … Can you spare my brother?”
An earnest, yet true sound.
Looking down at the corpse of Eidel von Artina, who had her right wrist cut off and her head bowed down, Yuri von Artina hoped that it would never come true.
“… … 」
no one said anything Even Mu was silent. To be precise, he was about to open his mouth, but as soon as he made eye contact with Ezio, he turned his head away.
“It’s not like my brother wants to become a ghost and wander around this world.”
Selene said sternly.
“Are you hoping for a revival?”
to that question.
He looks through the glass and nods his head.
“… … 」
eternity of silence. Waiting for an answer, Yuri’s fingertips were trembling. Rubia’s eyes suddenly became full, and she was looking at the heartbreaking scene with a terribly sad face.
“… … Judging from the memories stuck in it, it must have been that that Naberius said something bad to you. Even you cannot do something like resuscitating the dead.”
Yuri’s complexion was instantly dyed with despair.
My body trembles in shock.
Ezio, who had his mouth firmly shut, grabbed Yuri’s body from the side and supported him so that he wouldn’t fall. The back of Yuri’s head was leaning against her chest.
tak-
Soon, a weak hand strikes Ezio’s hand.
Standing upright on his own, holding his expression on his face, he continued speaking once more.
“I will pay the price, I will pay the price.”
eyes determined to do something.
The will is stronger than ever.
“Didn’t you tell me? impossible.”
But Selene shakes her head indifferently.
Because it wasn’t a matter of paying the price.
Selene was able to raise Eidel’s corpse through the extremes of necromancy, necromancy, and black magic, just as Naberius had done. Can the Transcendent not do what a trivial mortal can do?
However, that would not be a real revival.
For the time being, it will act according to the memories left in the body, but what can be called a kind of self is gradually fading away.
There is no such thing as a soul, only the shell remains, and if the shell starts to decay over time, the inside will also rot together. Since the essence is a corpse, decomposition does not stop.
It was the same when Naberius brought Robert Guillaitin back to life with necromancy. He would have died naturally within a week if left alone.
In order not to be seen by the Frontiers, Naberius applied various magical treatments, so his lifespan became shorter.
So, after fulfilling Naberius’ order to escape, he would have returned to a pale corpse from a short distance away… …
“Just give up. I can’t save your brother.”
Therefore, the complete revival that Yuri wants is impossible.
I may dream for a while, but… …
The dream is essentially an illusion made up of lies.
When he woke up, he would be infinitely empty and empty.

Draw a cool line. Yuri was silent.
The most mysterious law in this world—If even the ultimate demon of demons is impossible, who can save them?
“… … Even if you give your life?”
Others than Selene responded to those words. I rolled my eyes The people next to them tried to dry the glass in a hurry, but
“Impossible.”
Selene dismissed all possibilities with that word.
“… … ”
Yuri pursed her lips as if she had more to say, and finally closed it.
“As I said, I don’t know if it’s the moment at the time of death… … It is impossible for even the gods in the sky to resurrect a dead and crumbling lion.”
Selene continued.
“At first, your brother’s soul was very shattered, and only a small amount remained, only regrets barely holding on to it. The rest of the sins have been wiped out, so even if it is said that causality is twisted… … Your brother will never return to his original form. Necromancer must have its limits.”
“… … What does that mean?”
“Your brother’s death was no ordinary death.”
The long hair that had been drooping became short hair, and muscle fibers and bone fragments were visible at first glance through the crumbly cross section.
Selene answered Yuri’s questions one after another.
“I have already died once. I was shackled by a ‘contract’. was finally liberated. Another death.”
… … One day, the Crown Prince would have died on the battlefield, being stabbed by the spears of demons and mutilated countless times.
But heaven reached out to him.
The Crown Prince gained the strength to overcome the ordeal, and after slaughtering the army of demons alone while wearing light, he finally defended the last line of defense.
If the defenses of the borders of the kingdom had been breached, the forces of the demons that rushed in like a tide could never have been stopped by the forces of the kingdom.
Indeed, the Crown Prince was the only one who defended the kingdom.
“After burning the worn-out soul and fighting for necessity, in the end, it was completely annihilated by death, and all that was left was… It’s just tiny grains and crumbs.”
Simply put, even the soul to dwell in the body is not enough.
Only endless regrets and longings are in the corner.
revived… … He wouldn’t be a sane person.
“My brother… … ”
The kingdom, the people, the family… … to keep.
The Crown Prince, who was praised as the strongest man in the kingdom, drew his sword.
“So, so desperately… … ”
A small piece of the Great War.
On the blood-stained plain, I remember the back of the Crown Prince standing alone.
“me… I, nothing… … Hib.”
Yuri, who was looking down at her brother’s dead body, which must have been engraved at that time, twisted her noble face and bit her lower lip.
All the horrors and tragedies at the time seemed to be clearly pictured in her mind, so Yuri had no choice but to shake her voice.
“Sorry… Sorry… … brother… … ”
Yuri— She didn’t know anything.
Yuri, who was still young enough to have chubby breasts, covered her eyes and covered her ears, so she had no way of knowing about the tragedy that happened during the war.
After getting some age, I peeked at the report of a Knights Templar who came back to life dramatically from the battlefield… … Details of the crown prince’s death were not recorded. Because they were ignorant too. The Crown Prince finished all his preparations and threw himself into the midst of the army of demons that rushed like waves.
Only that fact was written down.
Even after dying once, he came back to life, burned to the last piece of his soul, and defended the kingdom until the end. … I really didn’t know.
“You cannot avenge your brother. At that time, the commander of the corps who commanded the army in the Rothild Plains died together with your brother.”
“… … ”
therefore… …
asked.
“You… … How do you know?”
“… … 」
dripping like beads of tears.
He realizes again who he is in front of him.
Because she had such a small hope that she could save her brother, that maybe she might be able to talk with Idel oppa again with a smile, Yuri had completely forgotten who she was asking for.
But–
“You made your brother die.”
“… … 」
Now, staring at Selene, who was quietly silent.
Yuri’s voice trembled slowly.
“If it wasn’t for that war… … ”

Drinking Selene.
he led the war
Because he was alive, war broke out.
A war broke out… … brother is dead
“because of you.”
Yuri’s breathing gradually becomes unstable.
My heart is pounding and my blood is hot.
“Because of you——!”
From the inside of Yuri, true anger rose.
In response to that seething lava-like passion, the stones and rocks stopped by Selene trembled with an uneasy noise.
Telekinesis was running rampant.
“… … 」
In that violent vibration, Selene only performed.
“glass.”
“You, because of you. You——!”
Until Eidel died, the royal palace of Artina Kingdom was always filled with the smell of flowers and bright sunlight. It was peaceful and harmonious as if every day was a spring day. The king was a saint, and the queen was merciful. The older brother loved his younger brother terribly, and the younger brother followed him so well.
All of that daily life was ruined in one day.
“If it weren’t for you, my brother wouldn’t have died… ! My parents wouldn’t have been so sad, and I wouldn’t be obsessed with me… It wouldn’t have been all… … !”
All the gates of the palace were shut, and the flowers in the garden withered.
The king and queen tried to protect Yuri morbidly so as not to lose even their daughter.
As a member of the royal family, Yuri had never been to prison, nor would she ever go to prison, but on a bed in a windowless room, Yuri often felt as if she was in prison.
“If you didn’t start a war, everything… Everything wouldn’t be broken… ! It’s all because of you. You ruined my happiness-! get your brother back My brother who died because of you… give it back… … !”
My personality will become as sharp as the thorns of a rose. It is also an instinctive reluctance to depend on someone. Even the love that everyone else is trying to do—even those petty emotions wouldn’t have been impossible to feel.
All men other than Eidel were disgusting and insignificant, and the door of the heart that was already firmly closed would never be opened if anyone knocked on it.
“Take it back. bring it back! Give it back, darling —!”
“Yuri, stop it!”
Yuri shouted to the point of breaking the notes and shouted evil. Tears were dripping down my cheeks and chin constantly. His face was hot and his breathing became rough.
The desperate gesture continued for a while, then at some point, it broke and fell down like a puppet untangled.
“Hi-geuk, heh, oppa ah ah… … uh uh… … ”
Yuri cried while covering her face with both hands. In front of Eidel’s kneeling corpse, she wept and cried endlessly.
Water also dripped from Rubia’s eyes. Stella took a hot breath and bowed her head. Mew looked at something pathetic, but eventually turned her head and didn’t say anything.
“you… … Are you this… … ”
“glass.”
Ezio dried the glass that was about to run. It didn’t work for him, but there was a possibility that Rubia and her friends would fly off at will.
“Everyone dies. You have to get up.”
“Black, uh, uh, uh uh uh uh… … ”
Next to Yuri who was crying, Ezio calmly spoke the truth.
If you touch Selene’s heart more than enough, the lives of the entire party could be in danger. Now they can be alive… It was thanks to Selene’s mysterious whim.
“Rubia, I’m sorry, but the “stun” magic… … ”
If the words don’t work, you have no choice but to take them by force. After a while, Selene’s body remained only above the collarbone. Selene was barely holding back the collapse, so when Selene disappeared, everyone in this space would be buried with rubble and corpses lying underground.
“… Ah Okay. black. Hib.”
At that moment, Ezio asked Rubia to stun Yuri, and Rubia, who wiped her tears and nodded in help, tried to apologize to Yuri in her heart.
“… … If it’s after the last year, I can let you share.”
That quiet sound reached everyone’s ears.
