[I will live for the saint.]
It was an oath I had engraved into my soul at the end of my last life.
It was an oath to admit that my life as a selfish evil was wrong, and it was also an oath to never live such a life again.
Even though I made so much determination, I couldn’t come up with an answer when I asked myself, ‘What is life for saints?’
That’s right, isn’t there a part where it’s really vague to judge that life is for someone else?
It could be said that a life that makes that person happy right now is right, and that person’s present is sad, but a life that makes the future happy is right, isn’t it?
So I just stayed by my side.
The only thing he knew how to do was to wield his sword, so he concentrated on protecting Renee from external threats.
Faced with my calling, I came to realize that this is not living for her in the true sense of the word.
I am the agent of the greatest promise.
It is not a shield that protects the law.
So, I have to face my calling directly.
If I ask again and find the purpose of my life, what should I do?
… No, what do you want to do?
After a long time of worry and confusion, I finally felt that a clue to the answer was glimmering right in front of my eyes.
Kaang-!
There was a rustling sound in my ears.
However, I don’t know what this is.
There was only one worry and one impression that dominated my thinking now.
There was a woman with long, white, wavy hair, reminiscent of a flower with dew at dawn.
She was so deep inside that I had no choice but to pursue her.
Kaang-!
As all the senses are disappearing, the face comes to mind as if they are about to fill the void.
I remember the hands we always held.
I remember the playful voice and the warmth that was directed at me.
Kaang-!
Facing it, I look at the colors that my soul evokes.
Neither the gold of the honor of the promise, nor the gray of my vices.
It was very warm and soft red.
It was a raw heart that beats like a heart.
Kang-!
The raw mind, which was revealed at the time when everything was lifted, is so ashamed to show itself that it twists its body and tries to run away to the corner.
It seemed like he was really ashamed of himself.
–!
I took a step closer and looked at it.
I looked at what it was like.
–.
It was very colorful.
It was a mind that changed its shape with every beat.
It was like a burning fire, like a wave being swept away by a storm.
It seemed as hot as the midsummer sun, but somewhere there was the chilly, cold air of winter.
It seemed to be constantly chasing in any direction, but suddenly it had the shape of bowing its head.
–.
I had to contemplate what that mind was for a very long time, and now I feel like I know a little bit what it is.
In addition, I realized why this heart is only trying to hide itself.
‘You only think that you are sinning.’
This heart felt guilty for my existence.
So beautiful, but also brilliantly shining.
This mind was trying to hide itself as if it were a feeling that it shouldn’t exist.
I understand why it is doing this.
No, it would be correct to say that I had no choice but to know.
It was me who made this heart, and it was also me who was ashamed and hid it.
I was now able to face the biggest mistake I had ever made myself.
Because I turned away from my heart and looked only at the other person, because I looked at the other person only with reason, not my heart, I could not give the answer to my promise.
It was impossible to know what life was for her because she wanted to know it under the standard of morality, not the human heart.

Once again, I had the desire to run away.
He held it in his hand and lifted it. It was very heavy and also warm.
The brilliance was so dazzling, I didn’t feel dazzling even though I was facing this straight.
I stroked it for a while, then locked it in my arms.
‘I will not turn away from you.’
As I said that, Jericho and my fragile heart stopped struggling.
I stopped trying to hide myself.
Then it got into me.
As soon as that thought permeated, I realized.
that my heart was my promise
This heart, which has existed since the moment I do not know when, was another name for my promise.
The light I’ve been longing for all along already existed in me with an embarrassing name.
It was a heart that took on tens of thousands of forms.
This moment was also a mind that changed from moment to moment.
It was a heart that could be joy, sadness, resentment, or despair.
However, despite the name, it was a heart that was bound together.
It’s a name I’m ashamed to spit out of my mouth, so I couldn’t do it up to that point, and I repeated the name of my heart.
The name of my promise that I have now been able to face.
It was love.

sensation returns.
The world regains color again.
Vera trembled briefly at the sensation of returning to reality from a long, long dream.
In the meantime, he swung his sword.
Chaeeng-!
There was a rustling sound as the sword and sword touched.
From https://noblemtl.com
On the other side, there was a black knight in black armor.
All the scenery he saw was the same as before, but Vera felt something different in it.
He had finally reached a new realm and began to see the meaning in it.
The black knight, Hodric’s sword was able to see what was formed.
It became possible to see why his sword was shaped like a mirage.
It was regret and resentment.
The sword of Hodric was running towards the unfinished past, and thus cutting an unfinished illusion.
He was facing himself, but what he wanted to cut at the end was his own mind.
the number came and went.
The sword and the sword were still touching, and the accumulated fatigue was gnawing at Vera’s body.
However, Vera felt more energetic than ever.
So he raised his sword again and pushed away the rush of regrets.
It created a smooth flow.
It created a rigidity that will never break.
At times, it produced a speed that was faster than anything in the world.
He swung an unshaped sword that could produce thousands or tens of thousands of swords with a single sword.
It could be said that this indefinite sword was wrong, as establishing righteousness and punishment was truly the realization of a sword, but Vera didn’t care.
All the transforming forms of this wolf were his older brother, and his sword was also a colorful wolf, and that was enough.
I finally realized that it was like ever-changing black love.
Vera stared at Hodrick again.
I looked at the source of regret.
Still, his concept was stronger than his own, and he had depth.
His power to deal with it was insufficient, and his technique was not sophisticated.
Nevertheless, Vera assured victory.
It’s because he has a promise of his own called love.
That’s why it won’t fall.
No other oaths, oaths, or proclamations were required.
There was one promise more precious than ten thousand promises, and Vera could not fall.
Divinity burned.
cycled
and it was released
He blocked Hodric’s sword that was fired in all forms without exception, and he drew out the number of counterattacks from it.
I bounced my sword in days.
Isue slapped her wrist.
In the three-handed sword, he blew a bullet, and in the shooter, he twisted the sword and stabbed the breastplate.
Hodrick’s body was pushed back.
Vera clenched his sword once more and looked at him, this time in a slashing position.
The power of the promise was staring at the remnants of the shackles engraved on Hodric’s soul.
It was his regret, and it was also his resentment.
It was his fault that he couldn’t cut it, and left it to him to deal with it.
There was no hesitation.
Vera swung his sword.
The sword that cuts from the bottom up and at an oblique line drew the air.
There was no physical cut, but Vera felt a slashing sensation in the fingertips of the sword.
A feeling that something sticky and thick is cut off at once.
Vera did not add any more, and took the sword.
thud-.
At the edge of Vera’s gaze, Hodric fell like a broken puppet.
*
The moment Hodrick fell, Jenny ran to him without realizing it.
“Master!”
While the fight continued, the resentment against myself for not doing anything and just standing still rose.
The thought that Hodrick was really going to disappear, saddened me.
Jenny knelt in front of the fallen Hodric.
And he shook Hodric’s breastplate to and fro.
Knock Knock Knock Knock Knock Knock Down.
As Jenny shook, the armor surrounding Hodric’s body shook terribly.
Jenny’s face was filled with deep despair.
‘no… .’
could not admit
I didn’t want to say goodbye, I didn’t want to leave, and I didn’t want to leave alone.
No, I didn’t want to break up.
We still have a lot to learn, but there are so many things we haven’t been able to do together. Does it make sense to leave first?
Jenny clenched her teeth, took off the backpack she was carrying on her back, and began to take things out one by one.
And so, he left scars.
A divine indigo blue like the night sky indulged in Jenny’s body and the things she took out.
After placing the objects imbued with power in a certain arrangement on Hodric’s body, Jenny uttered a spell.
The holy spirit of rest wrapped around Hodric’s body.
However, even after such a process, Hodric did not move.
[…] fool around Little boy.]
Annielis said.
Jenny’s head turned to Annielys, who was lying on the ground.
Aniles continued to speak with her head turned to Hodrick.
[If the soul, not the body, is in a split state, would it be possible to call it necromancy?]
As the soul that should have been called is broken, it does not work through necromancy.
Jenny’s expression collapsed at the decided words.
Vera, who came late, stopped at the conversation between the two.
“… .”
Vera’s fists clenched.
Because there was nothing to say.
Vera said after stopping the hand that was about to reach out.
“… sorry. There was nothing I could do.”
In the beginning, it was a soul that was bound to this world by regrets.
The only thing Vera can do is to annihilate him when the regret itself is stained.
Jenny’s gaze turned to Vera for a moment, then to Hodrick again.
His hands were still on Hodric’s breastplate.
Jenny stared blankly at Hodrick for a long time, then clenched her fists and called him once more.
“Master… .”
Everything you hear now will be a lie.
It’s because I don’t know anything.
Jenny denied the words she had heard and shook Hodric over and over again.
“Lungs, Your Majesty… .”
Maybe Maleus could save Hodric.
Thoughts flashed through my mind for a moment, but it was also impossible.
Maleus was not here.
He was now dealing with an intruder in Daejeon.
There was water in Jenny’s eyes.
lips trembled.
The parting that Lee Da-ji had to face was sad because he could not prepare for the unexpected moment.
Please, with that kind of heart, I once again released my powers and poured out my divinity.
so I hoped
May Hodric return, if we can’t be together again, at least give us a break at the end.
For a long time, Jenny’s footsteps continued.
Vera watched the moment with a subdued expression on her face, while Anilis kept her mouth shut.
While even Balak, who had always been arrogant, closed his eyes and expressed his condolences, Jenny’s divinity, which was squeezing out the divinity, began to fade.
Vera couldn’t see more of it at the moment trying to restrain her.
Keying-.
A sharp sound came from Jenny.
Vera’s eyes widened.
A startled sound came from Anilis.
At the end of her gaze, a translucent white crown appeared above Jenny’s head.
Maybe Jenny didn’t notice it, but she was still clenching her teeth and exuding a divinity.
While everyone in the sudden situation stopped, Anilis looked at the crown and got a belated realization.
‘The tube… .’
Vera realized what the ‘coffin’ he had asked him meant.
Aniles knew that.
I knew its exact name and its source.
[…] The coffin of eternal life.]
Ardain’s first legacy.
A piece of equipment he made by weaving all the nine powers that he had bestowed upon him.
It was the crown that bound the souls.
