207. again
It could be seen as an ambiguous time period.
The dawn of the day when he returned to the village on a warp from the Forest of the Demon Realm, killed the maiden of time, and freed Kulika from being manipulated.
Although the Goddess of Death could no longer intervene, it was at the point where Rin had absorbed the Maiden of Time, so I was slightly curious as to why Rin wanted to return to this point.
The answer came to me when I saw the expression on the girl’s face, sitting next to me and leaning on me.
‘That child wanted to return to this time.’
is Lin.
So, Rin in the second episode wanted to come back to this time when he was looking at the moon with me.
I missed this time when we covered Dina’s sister’s blanket and carefully leaned on each other and looked up at the moonlight.
It could be said that it was a simple wish for a girl who had made and suffered countless tragedies.
“Ahhh……”
Do you think of Rin, who pathetically crouched down every night and looked at the moon, thinking about this time? Hot tears continued to flow down his cheeks.
“All right, Daniel? What is it? Are you sick? Did you get hurt while fighting the shrine maiden?”
Rin urgently approaches me. As her face got closer, a violent emotion surged up in a corner of my heart without my knowledge.
He reached out his hand roughly and hugged her tightly.
“Daniel?!”
Surprised Rin trembled, but I gave more strength to the thought that she might disappear somewhere.
“I’m sorry… I’m sorry.”
“Why are you suddenly like this, Daniel?”
I’ll never be able to hear it now.
You forgot all the tragedies you’ve been through.
I’m sorry though.
and.
“Thank you… Rin.”
*
The next day, Rin was looking at me with slightly awkward eyes. Feeling something strange about me.
In fact, since that day, I haven’t been able to look at Rin properly either. When I first returned, there were so many things I wanted to say right away.
Because the current Rin wasn’t the 2nd Rin.
I was in a dilemma of sorts.
In the case of Eris, I decided to consider the Eris of the 0th play and the current Eris as different people.
In fact, I said right before sealing the earliest end that I didn’t like her anymore.
If so, the same answer is drawn for Lin.
Rin from the second playthrough and Rin now are different.
Is that why I don’t love her now?
“……”
The answer to this was a little vague.
After all, in my previous life, I realized that I liked Rin, not Eris.
However.
[Forget me.]
Every time I saw Rin, I couldn’t help but think of her dying face.
[Please forget me and live happily.]
I feel her voice ringing blankly in my ears. Even after the first regression right away, it was similar to the emotions I felt while watching Eris, but different.
At that time, I saw the two Eris as the same.
‘I can’t see Rin the same now.’
If I confess to Rin right away or tell me about my feelings, I think we will probably be formed.
But there’s another Rin that blooms within me.
She asked me to forget her, but I could never forget her. To love Rin now, I felt like I was doing something I shouldn’t have done to Rin in my previous life.
‘For now… Let’s think about it later.’
Even if I try to think about Rin right now, I can’t find any answers. Just as it took time to forget Eris, it also took time for the answer to the intense feelings towards Rin in the second episode.
“I made tea for the guests. What do you think?”
Dina noona serves tea with an apron on, which is not usually used for anything more than a dishcloth. Ares, who had arrived earlier, stretched out his neck to check the inside of the teacup, then carefully pushed it aside.
“Isn’t this porridge?”
“Huh? Do you think it will be delicious?”
Dina noona grabs Ares by the chin and puts the contents in the cup.
“Keck! keek! Hot…!”
Seeing Ares screaming in pain and making strange noises, I also quietly joined in and poured the rest of the tea into my mouth.
Sen, Adrina, and Hayoon come in with Rin outside the house. In the case of Adrina, as in the old time zone, she joined early in the morning in a dirty appearance due to the influence of the warp.
Originally, Hayun had to cut off the bracelet on my wrist and return to her family, but I caught her.
Because I had something to say.
“Are you asking?”
Seeing Sen put a strange liquid monster named tea into Ares’ mouth, Sen’s eyes lit up with interest.
To be honest, I was a little emotional.
After all, because of this bastard…
‘Ha, it’s not about Ares.’
Anyway, I covered my mouth with my hands until Ares swallowed my sister’s liquid monster, and then gathered the people.
Kulika, crouching in the corner, seemed a little uncomfortable as people came and it got more cramped.
‘Kulika…’
[I die as your friend.]
I still remember how Kulika passed on her powers to me while dying. His powerless voice will probably never be forgotten even if it takes a lifetime.
“Okay, since everyone is here, concentrate.”
“Ugh!”
“Ares. I’m talking about something important, so be quiet.”
“I-I really hate MacLean.”
I opened my mouth while ignoring Ares, who was glaring at Dina and me and glaring at me.
“Now, listen to me carefully. Originally, my plan was to go to the Land of Beasts and rescue Eris.”
Everyone nods. Other than that, there was no reason to gather anymore.
“But the schedule has changed. I will split the team. With me and Coolika as the center, Coolika goes to the Land of the Beasts and I head to the royal family.”
“uh?”
While everyone was wondering if it was so out of the blue, Dina noona, who was the most comfortable with me, asked me.
“Suddenly going to the royal palace? why?”
“I will explain that from now on.”
After that, I explained my future plans. According to the information found in the last episode, the land of the beasts can be easily solved by organizing the rebellion of Hobaek, the father of Horan.
And I have already confirmed with my own eyes that Kulika alone can overpower it.
That you don’t have to go to me.
That’s why I was thinking of heading straight to the kingdom. I was thinking of laying the foundation there and building up preparations for the ‘following end’ one by one.
Of course, everyone has no choice but to ask me questions.
how do i know that
At times like this, she used a kind of invincible logic called the goddess of time, which was too simple. When I say that the goddess of time informed me, everyone agrees and moves on.
In fact, if I had to question it, it was also the information the goddess gave me.
“Let’s divide the team into Kulika, Adrina, and Sen. Three should be enough. Me, Ares, and Rin are going to the royal palace together.”
Ha-yun organizes the Ren family’s mansion in Nirva and joins the kingdom, and Dina’s sister heads for the dragon’s border.
I had a reason to stop by the dragon’s border later.
Sleeping Dragon Shakalim.
Rin in the second round is Shakalim and Yggdrasil, served by dragons. He told me that these two transcendent beings could be the key to preventing ‘the end that follows’.
But here Rin suddenly raised her hand.
“I want to go to the land of beastmen.”
“……uh?”
I couldn’t help but be a little embarrassed when Rin, who hadn’t made eye contact with me during the meeting, suddenly appeared like this.
Because I could tell from her eyes that she wasn’t saying that for nothing.
“……okay.”
I nodded in agreement. Anyway, now the goddess of death couldn’t get involved. It was okay for Rin to get away from me a little bit, as there was no need for her to run out of control.
To be honest, I found myself at ease in my heart.
If I went out with her right away, I felt like it would be a little burdensome because my emotions were swirling.
In the second playthrough, Rin sacrificed herself in hopes that I would prevent the ‘following end’. So, before I came to any conclusions about reason, it was only after the apocalypse was completely prevented, as she had hoped.
So we decided to wait for a while until dawn. As it was in the last episode, it had to be dawn for Coolica to come out and work.
After walking out of town for a while, I heard a voice after a long time.
– How does it feel to start a new life?
“I almost said something harsh.”
-……
I don’t know where he learned to talk like that, but if he had been in front of him, he would have punched him right away.
“I’ve been thinking about it since the other day, you better be careful with your words. Especially now.”
– I’m just following her opinion. why are you doing this to me
“…Huh, what’s the matter?”
I was annoyed that this kind of goddess was the only one I could talk to about Rin in the second episode. It was clear from her voice that for her, Rin’s sacrifice was just a passing time.
– I can’t return anymore, so please be aware of it.
The goddess of time who grumbles about whether she’s cringed.
-Changes in the time of regression are more important to the other gods than I thought. So this round is over. If you fail anyway, there seems to be no more chance.
“……”
-Because I even lifted the curse of the sun god. I know how the Goddess of Death felt. Is this an all-in for the continent?
“Good.”
I, too, had no desire to lean on something like a comeback in the future. It made me experience something like this, but having to go back again is like a nightmare.
“I will end it all in this world.”
never.
