Chapter 129 – Siwoo Han / Start of Part 2
Black.
The whole world was just black.
In the darkness without a single light, I felt as if my body had sunk into an endless abyss.
My heart is getting tighter and my breath is choking.
If I wanted to, I wanted to swim and go up, but….
“… ….”
All I could do now was open my mouth to curse.
My body has recently been seriously overworked for a short period of time. It’s to the point where I wonder how he’s still alive and not dead.
The burden that has accumulated over the years has prevented me from lifting a finger.

I wonder if this is going to die.
Or should I wait for consciousness to disappear, with only my soul remaining, since I am already dead?
‘I can’t….’
I still have a lot of work to do.
There are many people left to save.
Dinado, Stiado, Yoon Hyeyeondo, Scarletdo.
And the girl who became the Demon King even though she didn’t want to.
I haven’t been able to properly rescue anyone yet. But to die like this?
‘… I can’t die.’
At this rate, I can never die.
Haven’t you decided? Haven’t you made a promise to yourself?
I will definitely save everyone.
But to die in a place like this without seeing the end where everyone is happy?
‘It’s nonsense.’
You can never die here like this.
I will get rid of this darkness and go further.
Moving forward, I will greet a happy ending where everyone can be happy. I will check with these two eyes.
My death is next.
Key Yiing——.
The purple star begins to rotate slowly.
The sticky [Darkness] Clung to the purple star and prevented it from moving, but it didn’t matter.
Move at least forcibly.
Cheer!
Thanks to that, I felt a terrible pain like a nail being driven into my heart….
Kiyiyiying——!
The purple star starts spinning faster and faster.
“By the way….”
A deep purple light begins to spread out.
As a result, the soggy darkness and [Erosion] Began to clear little by little.
Paaah!
At that moment, my vision was colored with pure white light.
“Sir… !”
I raised my hand to cover my eyes at the sudden light, and I was startled myself.
“The arm… Are you moving?”
It also moves very well.
Besides, the same was true for other body parts.
It didn’t hurt or creak.
Soon, the light that colored the world white faded, and a certain place gradually appeared.
Here….
“… Astell Academy?”
Everyone brought me to the academy, did I come to my senses now?
I thought about that for a while… My memories and the surroundings that were different from the academy were telling me that this was not reality.
Looking at the structure and arrangement of the buildings and the logo of the academy engraved on it, there is no doubt that it is Astell Academy.
Somehow, it was a little different from the Astell Academy I knew.
It looks as if it is several years older… Judging by the anti-aircraft guns and shields that seem to be active.
Right now it seemed to be playing the role of a base for war, not just the role of an academy.
So… Just like the content of [Akanak Castle].
It was mentioned in [Oeyeongdae] That after the war with the demon king started in earnest, Astell Academy played the most important role as the headquarters.
The desolate appearance now seems to show that time….
Moreover, it seemed that the lack of a single person was also contributing to the desolate appearance.
It’s not like corpses are rolling around, all of a sudden disappeared? No, people didn’t exist in the first place… In the same way, there was no presence at all in this place.
This is my deep world… Is it because it’s the same place?
“Maybe.”
“…… !”
I turned around at the familiar yet unfamiliar voice I heard from behind, and brought my hand to my waist to draw the sword.
But… The hand could not hold the sword and only scanned the air.
All I have right now is my body, which has been restored to normal, and the school uniform I was wearing that was half torn.
It was after the sword he usually wore around his waist had disappeared. Even the subspace bracelet was invisible, so I couldn’t take out another sword.
“Looking for a sword?”
Hearing the voice from the front again, I finally looked in that direction.
“…… You.”
Saaa
Black hair blowing in the wind.
Bright blue eyes that look as if sapphires were embedded in them.
The corners of the mouth are raised to the point of frivolousness.
From such a topic to being unnecessarily handsome.
It’s quite a far cry from what I usually see, but as soon as I saw it, I knew that was his ‘real’ look.
“… Siwoo Han.”
It’s not me, it’s the real Han Siwoo.
In the first playthrough, I wasn’t even possessed by someone else. Real han siwoo
Gag Castle’s third -class villain of Akanak and Outdoor.
“Right. It’s me.”
Han Siu shrugged his shoulders and smiled, as if what I was thinking was the correct answer.
When the body was dying, the surroundings suddenly changed and Han Si-woo appeared?
… Is it a dream
“I’m sorry, but it’s not a dream.”
Siwoo Han replied as if he had read my thoughts.
“… If so, why——”
“Why did you suddenly appear now?”
Siwoo Han cut off my words and intercepted my words behind my back. And even sarcastically touches it.
“Well, why don’t you try guessing?”
“… ….”
The reason why Han Si-woo finally appeared… Is it because I’m dying? Or is it really dead?
“Wrong. No, can you only imagine something like that?”
… So, it’s like an awakening event that happens at the moment of desperation.
“It may be similar in a sense, but it is wrong.”
“…… Then what is it?”
As if pondering over my sharp question, huh? Han Si-woo, who had been sarcastic, suddenly turned serious and asked coldly.
“Did you think I would just hand over my body? You scumbag who robbed your body.”
“…… !”
I choke on the terrible pressure that suddenly attacks my body.
I tried to hold on somehow by clenching my teeth and raising my magic power.
‘Magic power… doesn’t exist?’
The magical energy that should be stored in the heart, the purple stars are disappearing.
Did the unknown emptiness you felt earlier come from here?
It is a feeling of emptiness, as if a body part that was supposed to exist has disappeared.
“Ugh… ….”
In the end, he couldn’t overcome the pressure and was on the verge of falling over.
“Puhahahahaha!”
Suddenly, Siwoo Han burst into a frivolous laugh. It was a bonus that the pressure covering his whole body had disappeared.
“Hey, relax. Because it was just a joke. In the first place, giving her body to another soul was a ‘deal’ I made with a goddess.”
“… ….”
You damn bastard.
“What? Are you mad? Ha ha ha ha ha!”
Looking at his smiling face, he really is a frivolous guy just like he appeared in [Oeyoungdoe].
If you think about how this kind of guy was jealous of others because of his inferiority complex… Uh
“Hey? Are you talking behind your back in front of that person?”
Han Siu snooped his head and said something absurd.
However, he smiled and shrugged his shoulders, saying, “It doesn’t matter.”
“By the way.”
Han Si-woo continues with a smile as if he is having fun.
“It’s real that I can’t just hand over my body.”
“… What?”
“I know that you didn’t enter my body because you wanted to, and I know that it’s absurd for me to suddenly jump out and do this… Please understand.”
“… ….”
“It is said that I gave it up because I wanted it, but I don’t know who occupies it.”
If you think about it, yes.
According to the person himself, the reason why I became possessed by Han Si-woo’s body was through a ‘transaction’ between Han Si-woo and the goddess.
However, the person I was was chosen solely by the Goddess, not Han Si-woo.
I’m dumbfounded too, but he must be too worried.
Han Si-woo, with a serious expression, looks at me calmly.
“So. I need to see if the person I brought while sacrificing my soul is really someone who can save the world.”
Hwaaah!
Suddenly, the body is full of vitality. The magic is back.
When I checked it, I felt that the purple star that had returned from the center of my heart was slowly rotating.
Then, a heavy feeling was felt even in the waist dance, and the sword returned.
However, it was a sword with an unfamiliar appearance.
An unfamiliar sword, not the Shinam sword that I had been indebted to for a long time, nor the academy’s popular sword.
However, the mighty power felt inside was certain.
“This is….”
“Durandal. Paladin’s weapon. You know that too That [Han Si-woo] Is a person who has been blessed with the star of being a Holy Knight.”
Serureung.
From noble mtl dot com
As he drew his sword without saying a word, a pure white blade appeared.
And at the same time, Han Siu also stretched out his hand and summoned his weapon.
A sword like the one in my hand. Durandal.
Unlike before, Siwoo Han, who doesn’t have a smile on his face, slowly walks this way.
“So, let me try it. Are you really worthy of taking over my body? Are you someone who can save the world differently from me?”
“… ….”
Until now, there have been many times when I wondered what the blessing of this planet was.
Was it originally a blessing Siwoo Han had, or was it a blessing that came at the same time I possessed it?
This makes it clear.
Even if I wasn’t possessed, he was unmistakably a paladin.
Both in [Oeyeongdo] And in the world of [Akanak Castle] That I possessed.
And in some part I don’t know, or in something that’s not recorded anywhere.
He must have fought alongside everyone as a paladin and failed.
And at the very end, he summoned me in exchange for his soul.
Someone who will save the world instead of the failed self.
However, I myself have no idea what kind of person I am.
Was I a heinous murderer, a loving lover, or just an ordinary person?
Yes… If so, I will prove it.
That I am the one who deserves your body?
No.
“… Your sacrifice was not in vain.”
I will save the world on your behalf.
Kiyiyiing————!
The purple star started spinning.
