206. scream
“No, no, no, no, no!”
Everyone turned their heads in amazement at the bone-crunching scream.
One skeleton splattered mud and ran out, digging into the crowd.
“No no!!”
“Uh…”
People were bewildered, but suddenly got out of the way.
As an unidentified undead, he had already become an important figure in a single war, and above all, the outpouring of emotions made them backtrack.
His desperate will set fire to both eye sockets. Blue flames burned precariously in the eye sockets.
Busker knelt beside Brudet.
“No… no, no… ah, ah…!”
Blood was still flowing from Brudet’s chest. The blood mixed with the rain and formed a red river.
Busker couldn’t even touch his body and felt the air above him, not knowing what to do.
The solemnity shown on the battlefield was nowhere to be seen, and a skeleton filled with anxiety, despair, and nervousness trembled.
“what? What’s up?”
“That skeleton, no, Skeleton… what is it?”
The people around them wondered if the skeleton had gone mad at the sudden change of attitude. Some looked at Doyoon as if they were looking for an explanation, but he couldn’t bear to open his mouth.
Brudet’s eyelids trembled.
“father…”
“…father?”
The word Brudet uttered stirred up the surroundings.
“Oh, no… it can’t be like this… what the hell…”
A trembling thin hand bone touched the cold cheek.
Brudet’s fingertips trembled as if she were about to reach out, but only trembled.
Busker, noticing this, stretched out his cold bones and held his son’s hand.
“Ah… Father… Cool!”
“Don’t talk!”
he shouted like a scream.
Blue flames looked down at the pale face and the hole in the chest. The shimmering flames fell down like teardrops. The skeleton cried.
“Yes, you will be able to live. It can’t be like this… I… How did I meet you again…!”
“father…”
Busker felt an aphrodisiac power in his son’s cold hands.
Brudet muttered with difficulty, blurry focus and blue lips.
“Human, orphan… thank you for taking me…”
Shaa…
Even in the pouring rain, that thin voice was clearly heard in the father’s ears by everyone.
“Oh, no… don’t say that, please…”
“There is you… and… see you again… Happiness…”
“Ah ah ah ah ah!!”
Busker screamed as if he had gone mad, as if it was painful to hear.
Even the basic spirit of the Busker style, Myeonggyeongsu, was infinitely helpless in front of the moment he feared the most.
“Finally, going first… Forgive me… the disobedience…”
Brudet’s pupils, who had been struggling to speak, shook sharply. It has reached a critical point.
“no! Please, please don’t die, no…!”
Brudet, whose jawbone was shaking, raised her head and shouted.
“An item of revival! Is there no one who has a treasure-level revival item!”
no one answered Right after the battle between life and death. The precious things that would be extra lives were already used up on himself and his comrades.
Of course, Busker knew this, but he turned a blind eye to reality and continued to appeal.
“I! My name is Busker! Sword Emperor Busker! I will reward you somehow! In the name of the Sword Emperor!!”
“What, what!?”
“The black emperor…? Busker? that hero?”
The shocking confession quickly turned the surroundings into an uproar.
Many people looked at Doyoon, asking for confirmation, and he was silent. That provided a sufficient answer.
“Ji, really that busker!? That skeleton!?”
“Watch your mouth!”
“Huh…!”
“Oh My God. Truly a hero…!”
Sword Emperor Busker. The weight of that name was indeed enormous. Everyone, including the hero, couldn’t escape the shock.
Indeed, it was a name worthy of the majesty seen on the battlefield.
People only then understood his desperate attitude. However, it is impossible to create an item that does not exist. They moaned in pity and turned away from him in agony.
“That’s right…!”
Busker released the sword from his waist and showed it to everyone. One of the best swords on the continent, Collection No. 7, shone brilliantly despite the cloudy weather.
“I have twelve sword collections! I will hand it all over!”
“Geomwang’s sword collection!”
“All twelve points…?”
Indeed, many people flinched at the unprecedented compensation. But it was all about not being able to step out.
“Not only that! You may use me as a slave! I’ll make a subordination contract! So, please, anyone…!”
The hero who screamed while scratching his bones looked shabby now. The warriors couldn’t bear to see it any longer and averted their eyes.
“please…”
no one stepped out Busker fell silent in despair.
But even for a moment, he jumped up at the fact that came to his mind.
“Enoch!”
Doyoon bit his lips as if something had come.
A shabby skeleton ran towards him.
“Enoch! If it were you, if it were you, there would be a way! If it’s you who have always solved the impossible!”
“…”
“Yeah, yes! Elixir! Do you have any remaining elixirs!”
“…”
“With the Elixir, Brudet can survive. If only I had the supreme elixir…!”
He appealed with a metal sound, as if his neck bones were all worn out.
Dokgo Moo-yeong, who had talked before the war, looked at Do-yoon with a spleen face.
Doyoon looked down at the two black eye sockets and opened his mouth.
“…one bottle left.”
“Oh oh! Also! After all, Enoch, I thought it would be possible…”
“But I can’t.”
“……what?”
Even though he was an expressionless skeleton, his face hardened.
“I cannot give you an elixir. Busker.”
“…why?”
“It’s because of my promise to you.”
“…”
“The elixir should only be used on me. For I am a regressor, a warrior, and an association itself.”
That’s what Busker said.
Busker in the 18th episode did not make such a promise. But I had heard from Enoch, and I nodded.
People are changed by the memories and events they have experienced. Each time the episode changed, the characters around Enoch changed little or a lot.
But Busker was an unshakable man. He was always the same busker. Because of this, Doyoon knew that the busker in front of him would be the same as then.
If Doyoon uses the elixir on Busker, he will kill himself in front of Doyoon’s eyes. As in other timelines.
Of course, I also knew that for Busker, the existence of a child has more value than his own life.
That’s why he said it more firmly.
“Brudette is a precious person. But nothing can be more important than unity. I will not use the elixir on him.”
It was a brutally firm tone that would never change.
Some sighed with their mouths open, and some shook their heads as if tired of the coolness. Indeed, as written in the history books, he was an iron-blooded leader.
But everyone in this room knew he was right. It was the same with Busker.
However, he, the father who faced his son’s death in front of his eyes, threw away all of his faith, pride, and cause without hesitation.
dump!
Brudette knelt down.
“Please… Enoch… my friend…”
“…”
“I… can’t live without Brudet… please… please give me the elixir… please…”
When Doyoon was still silent, he put his forehead on the floor.
Slap!
“please! Save my brudette! Jebaal!!”
Puff, puff, puff!
The sound of bones and soil colliding rang in succession for a long time.
But, of course, Doyoon was not shaken.
“refuse.”
Slap!
“…”
Busker stopped with his head down.
Shaa…
Doyoon chanted amidst the loud sound of rain and heavy silence.
“I will save the Union. And the elixir is another life for the union. I cannot give it away.”
“…”
“But, I promise. I will definitely end the war and avenge it on behalf of your son and everyone who died in the war.”
“…”
“I will definitely cut off the demon king’s head.”
Shaa…
Again there was silence and the sound of rain.
After a while, Busker opened his mouth as if sobbing.
“I do not need…”
“…”
“Rather… come back. Turn back time… turn back the world…”
Doyoon didn’t listen anymore. I turned my back.
There was no blessing of returning to him now. His friends knew this too.
Friend was insane.
“A world without Brudet… has no value… End this world… Just, bring it all back… Just…”
“AD (After Death) 101 years.”
Busker flinched.
Hearing the voice from behind, he slowly raised his upper body and turned around.
“4th month 21st sun. 14:20.”
Eloa, the owner of the voice, reached out and closed her friend Brudet’s eyelids. Brudet didn’t even move.
“Hero Brudet Busker. You are doomed.”
Eloah and everyone neatly put their hands together. It commemorates the end of a warrior who gave his life for the Union.
But only one was not honored.
“…”
Busker couldn’t take his eyes off the scene, couldn’t speak, or moved.
Hwareuk-
The blue lights in both eye sockets went out.
Shaa…
It rained.
The shabby skeleton slowly lowered its head and lost its strength.
The darkness pouring from the dark eye sockets resembled bloody tears. It looked as if a skeleton was weeping.
Doyoon moved away from his friend step by step without saying a word.
Shaa…
It rained.
