204 – ending-2
“Me? Kill? You?”
A sigh escaped me. Also, it didn’t seem like it would end well.
“You heard all the conversations I had with the other kids? Didn’t you say you didn’t intend to stop it?”
“Of course.”
I couldn’t understand. I couldn’t quite figure out what Farseer wanted.
“As I said, your scenario is clichéd. At least, I would have liked to have seen it if it had been ‘based on a true story’… but that’s not the case either.”
Who wants to play the villain?
Farseer tried to trick me. They deceived me as if I had committed a crime that no one else had committed.
Even if it was Celia herself who was the victim of that deceit, it was not something she could admit.
She wasn’t innocent. However, even if Farseer is judged, it must not be because of her intentions.
Getting caught up in her plan and killing Farseer in order to give the illusion that I had ‘done a righteous deed’ made me feel bad.
“Enerel… what the hell are you talking about?”
A somewhat familiar bruise in Farsi language flowed down the dragon’s neck.
However, there seemed to be no malice. It was the same tone as before, and the same content, but it was a soft touch.
“You have already protected Celia. As long as you are in front of her, I will not be able to eat her and send you back no matter what.”
Farseer was right. I don’t know exactly how the word ‘eat’ applies, but it’s probably not enough to kill Celia with a magic arrow or two from a distance.
“Already, my plan has been torn to pieces. I can’t understand it, but you saved everyone. Celia, Nerwen, and Eleanor.”
“Why are you taking it off?”
Farseer quietly looked up at the sky. The stretched out neck of the dragon was very impressive.
However, overwhelmed by her atmosphere, I had no choice but to look at the sky together.
The moon and stars were twinkling. That was it.
Even if it’s not today, these are the lights you’ll see if you wake up at night and look up at the sky.
It’s beautiful, but that’s it. It was the night sky that I had been watching until I got tired of it during the journey of the warrior party.
The sight seemed fleeting for a moment.
“It was a poor scenario. You are right. But… the audience is already up. The actors have finished their makeup.”
“You can’t…”
“Shouldn’t one of them come up on stage and be beaten?”
Farseer’s words contained a lot of emotions.
“I have already obtained the body of a dragon. There is no way to turn it back.”
At Farseer’s words, my heart sank.
However, it was strange. It couldn’t have been. I didn’t want to admit it.
“No, it was possible to change the body. You can’t come back as a human now?”
“There is neither the resources nor the time to create a new body. If it enters a corpse or another human body, it will be rejected.”
“…Why did you do such a stupid thing. Huh?”
Farseer looked at me with his head lowered while looking up at the stars. Carefully, she lay down.
So that I can face her.
“I’m sorry.”
I didn’t know that I could feel emotion in the dragon’s eyes. You can feel Farseer’s emotions through short words, harsh words, and huge eyes.
“I thought I understood you. This time, Enerel, I thought you were definitely important. More than anything, more than anything…”
“I’m not asking for anything complicated!”
“But, it seems to have failed this time too. Strange. Really, obviously… I thought you hated me.”
I hated the look in his eyes that said he had given up on everything.
it’s parse If Eleanor was a person who would not give in to any situation, Farseer is a person who will create an answer in any situation.
I believed so. Even now, it hasn’t changed.
“Now that doesn’t matter.”
I tried to think of a way as quickly as possible, holding my head somehow.
“How many magic ingredients do you need? If you were going to send me back, you’ll surely have the same amount of ingredients as the one I used last time…”
“It’s not that much. Even if I had the materials, I don’t have the ability to make a human body that ‘I can enter’ in a short time.”
I was in a hurry. It got frustrating.
“This body… is a temporary object. In the first place, it was not made to survive.”
To some extent, I guessed that.
She values efficiency above all else. Even if they made a ‘fake horse dragon’, they would not have put in inefficient functions.
“Then… let’s wait slowly. Huh? It’s true that I’m saying this because it’s someone else’s business, but honestly, living as a dragon isn’t that hard.”
It may be a little uncomfortable and frustrating, but one day you will find a way. With a body like that, it wasn’t like Farseer couldn’t use magic.
He didn’t have to die. I didn’t have to kill her here.
“I don’t know now, but I can’t keep my sanity forever. In three months, this dragon’s body will eat my sanity.”
“shit…”
In a way, it is also a natural thing.
Rather, the fact that ‘several months’ was consumed in the process itself showed how powerful a mage she was and how much mental power she had.
The human mind is greatly affected by simple physical changes such as hormonal changes and drug injections.
Having obtained the body of a demon dragon, being able to endure while maintaining reason was a miracle in itself.
However, that is not forever.
“Didn’t you have a dream? That dream of making everyone live forever!”
It was far away. It was in vain.
It was a grand plan to rid all humans of the fear of death, of the primal fear of passing time and mortality.
For that, she did everything she could. He sacrificed those who had no choice but to sacrifice, and gave up those who had no choice but to give up.
However, the dream was not misplaced.
“Look over there.”
She raised her eyes and looked up at the sky.
It seemed that it was not easy to look at the sky with the body of a dragon attached to the ground.
“I thought it was beautiful. I thought it was fleeting. I wanted to keep the beautiful light that illuminated the sky forever.”
“Then, that’s all you need to do…”
“But, I was mistaken. The stars have always been in the sky. I was mistaken.”
Farseer looked at the night sky with faint eyes.
“All I wanted was a person. My grandfather and grandmother, a person who was warmer and more beautiful than anyone else. The memories I had with them… I just wanted to return them.”
I was anxious. If I let her speak like this, it seemed that Farseer would disappear at the end.
It shouldn’t be like this. I couldn’t admit this.
When you notice that Farseer is alive. I felt fortunate.

Just because I can see her again.
“Well, as long as you live, you’ll be able to meet as good people again. Calm down, let’s think of a way.”
“No. I’m already… too ugly to be part of the beautiful sights I remember.”
“I’ll be able to get it back.”
There is no basis. Maybe, I’m not sure either.

Just because I wanted it, I was trying to infect the Farseer with a ridiculous certainty.
“I sacrificed others for my dream, which should have been for people. As you said, I did not mourn their deaths.”
“…”
“I don’t think that dream is wrong. It’s definitely… an incredibly noble dream that I, childishly stupid, selfish and greedy, thought of.”
“then…”
“But, haven’t I already failed once?”
Farseer slowly lowered his head and looked at me with those huge eyes.
“At that time, in the imperial palace… If you entrusted yourself to Erinis, if you used her powers for revenge and destruction.”
“But you didn’t.”
“It was your mercy. It was your will…but that doesn’t change that I was one of the creators of you. With that alone, I’ve already failed.”
As if acknowledging her fate, she continued with a calm voice.
“The utopia my dreams create… may come someday. But, there won’t be a place for me.”
Although she was free from death once, she seemed so peaceful when her own death came.
That’s what I didn’t like.
“Who said you’d allow that? You might die someday, but at least not now. Not today.”
I hadn’t forgotten the contempt of the Farsi language, the disregard for treating me as someone who didn’t exist.
So, I didn’t want to lose to her until the end.
She didn’t want Farseer to die the way she had planned, or even if her plans had failed.
“Life is long. If it were you, it would be longer than ever.”
“Enerel…”
“Someday… you may be able to do better things. You may not know right away, but you may change into a good person enough to enter the utopia you dreamed of.”
“sorry but…”
Farseer looked at me with a dragon face and a faint smile.
“I’m not the kind of person to give a failed person a second chance.”
The old dragon rebuked me with a soft face.
that death is inevitable.
