181 – Only one island from the sky (5)
Hans moved forward slowly. Cluna and Bayard also tried to follow. The Dragon Lord stopped him. The current Yuren that has been eroded by the Aegis cannot be regarded as Yuren.
In other words, a situation in which you may be suddenly attacked. The Dragon Lord decided that only Hans, the leader of the Royal Knights, could handle Yuren’s power, which even he himself could not bear.
And that wasn’t a bad decision. At least Hans had the confidence to do something on his own. It’s not because of the time stop ability. He didn’t even believe in his dragon heart.
Even if nothing happened. Hans would have gone forward alone. There was only one reason, to save Yuren. Yuren, who was eroded by the Aegis, was not normal.
Her arms and legs were already bloody. Yuren’s movements were already closer to that of a beast. Hans sighed and said.
“What made you suffer so much?”
What came back instead of an answer was Yuren’s fist, completely stained red. In addition to Yuren’s basic physical abilities, the greatly enhanced speed was unimaginably fast.
However, thanks to the time stop, Hans easily evaded it. Even in that situation, Hans did not attack Yuren. Rather, he only moves toward Yuren. Nothing more, nothing less.
Realizing that her own attack didn’t hit, Yuren stomped her foot this time. At the same time, red thorns rose from the ground with the momentum to pierce the approaching Hans.
Even that momentum couldn’t pierce Hans. Hans continued to walk forward without retreating an inch. As the distance narrowed little by little, Yuren let out a roar as if she was desperate.
What Yuren fired was even bigger than her breath. An immense red energy rushed towards Hans, tearing everything apart. Seeing this, Cluna urgently shouted.
“Captain!!!”
Cluna didn’t react for nothing. It was the essence of the Aegis containing her anger. The power that contains her feelings of denying the world tears everything it touches.
Even Hans could die if hit properly. Even with the worst power in front of him, Hans just remained calm. Before long, an explosion occurred where Hans had been.
Looking at it, Yuren was convinced that the intruder had disappeared. Because it was an essence with that much power. Moments later, when this power explodes as the Aegis crashes into the ground. The continent will perish.
‘What will the captain say when he sees me now?’
I don’t know why. I suddenly felt that way. As if the leader is here now. Yuren sighed and laughed. I can’t do that. Is it just a piece of hesitation?
She did not deny that belief from the beginning. Rather desperately, she hung on. Am I not able to protect someone important to me? With a painful heart, I waited for the leader every day.
So, at least I wanted to protect the place where the leader would return. When the place to return is gone. Because the captain won’t be able to come back. But what struck her was reality.
Don’t be tied to the past.
Look at reality. The dead are dead
Don’t be frustrated and move forward.
A lot of weight was on her shoulders. Even so, Yuren tried to protect it until the end. However, in the end she couldn’t keep it. The Royal Knights disbanded. Everyone was scattered.
I appealed again and again and again. What came back was, in the end, a terrible mockery. How could this be? Was everything we’ve done so far just a clown’s game?
Still, I risked my life to fight. I believed that it was a cause. How could you do this to me, to us? The doubt quickly turned into anger. It piled up and piled up to become hatred.
In a way, it was an expression of anger.
No benefit whatsoever.
An angry outburst close to tantrums.
But it didn’t matter. The moment I realized that the leader was not coming back, everything felt futile. If so, wouldn’t it be right to burn with everything instead?
“This is the world we protected. So, it would be right to end it with our own hands.”
An endlessly burning rage eventually turned toward the world. There were no more regrets or hesitations. And, finally, to put an end to everything. Yuren raised his hand high in the sky.
Stained with blood and anger, the hand no one held. However, right now. Just before the end of everything. Someone grabbed Yuren’s hand. Yuren’s angry eyes turned back.
Who dares to hold my hand? No one deserves Still, you’re trying to stop me on your own. Mixed anger was directed at the intruder who held his hand. Until I hear your voice….
“Even if nothing comes back, even if everyone turns away from you.”
“……?”
“Even so, you tried not to give up until the end.”
“!!!”
A familiar voice. At the voice she has never forgotten even in her dreams, Yuren’s anger filled with anger slowly calms down. Yuren tried her best to confirm the presence of her voice before her eyes.
Even though I knew it wasn’t anymore. The expectation that remains until the end at the end makes it impossible to give up. She had drawn the image of her past many times, the image she had longed to see even once.
I was now in front of Yuren. The image of the leader that I couldn’t even see in my dreams is now in front of me. Is this just a mere dream? Or is it an illusion that appeared because he desperately wanted it?
I don’t know.
However, the appearance of the leader appeared in front of my eyes. Yuren couldn’t keep her eyes full. For reasons unknown to her, the tears welling up along with her anger were quenching Yuren’s terrible anger.
But Aegis was not convinced. Unlike Yuren, who sees the leader and everything is fine. Aegis, who had become anger itself, did not understand. Rather, she inflamed that anger even more.
Aegis runaway. As a result, even Cheon Gong Island began to be affected. The Dragon Lord stuck out his tongue. Completely eroded The only way to unlock it was to kill the link.
[Sir Hans! We must kill Yuren right now!!]
But unlike the urgent Dragon Lord’s voice. Yuren and Hans, who had been reunited in the center for the first time in a while, were enjoying their emotional reunion as if their voices were not being heard.
“Captain… Was he alive?”
“Yes.”
“How did you get here?”
“I’m here to save a precious member.”
“……So you’re the real leader.”
Unintentionally, Yuren took the hand that had been stretched out toward the leader. Now that the anger has subsided. Yuren realized what she had done. She hates the world, and she wants to burn it all down.
He himself was going to do that. Does he really deserve to hold the leader’s hand? Yuren raised her head. Her virtuous shield, which she had intended to protect the sky island, has now become the incarnation of wrath.
Perhaps if the sky island crashes to the ground like this, the aegis stained with rage will explode. If that happens, it will become a hell where no one can survive. If so, the method is simple.
“You know what, captain? When the captain gave me a new chance.”
“…….”
“I felt my dead heart beating again. Just like now.”
“What are you talking about all of a sudden?”
Yuren swung her fist. The fist that accurately hit the ground shattered Aegis and Yuren in front of him in an instant. It was split into pieces in an instant, and Yuren grabbed hold of it and took off.
“I will carry my sins with me. I will not burden you anymore.”
Yuren left those words and flew up into the sky. Towards the sky that no one can reach. Soon, the Aegis, eroded by anger, will explode. At least the sky would do less damage.
She made that decision. The Dragon Lord thought that was the best way. I’m really sorry, but it’s already too late. However, only one person, Hans, did not acknowledge that.
“It’s this guy, it’s that guy. It’s hard to decide and act as you please.”
The world changes around Hans. No, can this really be described as changing? If you dare to express it, it would be safe to say that it is returning to its original form. Hans raised his head.
The fragments of the Torn Sky Island have returned to their original state. The form of Yuren, who had turned into a dragon, returned to being a human. However, Yuren’s spirit did not return. This is time reversal.
“Did they say the Royal Knights were disbanded?”
A transcendental power that allows you to turn only the time you want into the past. Stunned by the sudden situation, Yuren looked around her. Everything was back to normal.
“Then, we need a new order and rules.”
The Aegis, which was eroded by anger and started to run wild, and the pieces of the island in the sky that he had apparently ripped out with his own power. Just one thing, if anything else. It was Hans who held out his hand in front of him.
“Don’t die before the captain.”

Hans said with a soft smile on his lips.
“That’s rule number one.”
