Part 3 Episode 12: A farewell from the future.
Obscure, who was running at breakneck speed, glanced to the side.
Mirai, who had already caught up with Obscure’s speed, was running next to him.
While running like that, Obscure discovered something strange about the future.
The face of the future, which had begun to crack as if it would break at any moment, looked somewhat resolute.

“I don’t have much time left. So I’ll run and talk. Just listen.”
I thought I couldn’t hear because I was running so fast, but Mi-rae’s words hit my head and conveyed their meaning.
Obscury nodded his head as he ran, and the future continued his words.
“After this, you probably won’t be able to summon me again. So I guess I should tell you everything now.”
The future looked at Obscure.
The future looked at the past.
“Once this is over, you’ll probably run into a ‘beauty queen’. You know that, right?”
Obs Q nodded his head.
“…You can tell when you look at me, we’re going to give up a lot there. Physically and mentally.”
Obscue’s gaze instinctively scanned Future’s arms, legs, and entire body.
They were not human arms and legs.
Can we call that a human being?
“I’ll say it again. Don’t hesitate. Cut out the unnecessary. Survive. Save. Think about that only. Everything else is just luxury.”
Quick. Damn it.
The cracks in the face of the future have grown bigger.
The time of separation is ready to burst out, tearing his face apart.
“We must survive. Only if we survive can we save everyone else. I… Didn’t know that. I refused to become a monster and struggled to live within the human frame. I. ..Failed.”
Obscure looked to the side in surprise.
More incontinence than before was covering Mirae’s face like a spider web.
“I repeat, do not hesitate. If we survive longer, we will probably have to deal with things worse than beauty queens. And… We cannot deal with them within the human framework.”＜ /I＞
The future pointed its chin at Obskue’s body.
“The Seven Deadly Sins will help you with that. So prepare for ‘complete fusion.'”
Mirae turned her head and looked at the city that was approaching at a rapid pace.
Then he looked down and saw his body collapsing.
“..I guess I can at least say goodbye.”
Mirae and Obscure, who were running at breakneck speed, finally put the brakes on.
Ggigigigigeek.
It barely stopped, leaving two long lines on the ground.
Of course, attention was focused on the two beings who stopped while making a sound that attracted the surrounding attention.
And as soon as they saw those two beings, several people came running.
“Boss!”
Crow.
“Oppa!”
Haitai, Haein.
“Master!”
Little butterfly, Xiao.
“You’re here!”
Bishop.
“Employer?”
Apothecary.
“The little boss has finally arrived~?”
Avenger, Vendetta.
“Hmph. It’s coming quickly.”
Ahab, Ji-Ah Lee.
“Did you use my items well?”
Golden Supreme.
Everyone rushed over in an instant and stood in front of Obscure and Mirae.
The future looked at the scene.
The past that I overlooked due to my hesitation.
The past that you let go of.
A past that can no longer be returned.
“Ah…Ah…”
I somehow held on to my crumbling body.
Raising the power of arrogance to its maximum, it turns into powder and grabs hold of the collapsing body.
The future has reached out its hand towards the past that it can no longer grasp.
Crow, who was the first to run out, stopped for a moment and stood still, looking at the Obscure watching this scene and the future coming towards him.
“..Boss..Hey?”
Mirae clenched her teeth.
Everyone who ran after saw this scene.
There was a truly scary and lonely silence.
“Are you… My lord?”
Xiao followed.
“Oppa…?”
Haein also looked to the future.
Everyone looked to the future.
Mirae stood still and looked at them.
“…Everyone…I’m…So…Sorry.”
The future opened its mouth.
His voice no longer contained any power.
He was able to stand in front of his family, whom he had created himself, as a human being, having finally put everything aside.
Jeobbuk. Jeez.
Crow slowly approached the future.
“..Crow…I…Really…”
Evening dew fell on the eyes of the future.
When Crow saw the future, he smiled slightly and said.
“You suffered alone again, right?”
“….!”
The future stared at Crow.
“…You don’t have to say it, boss. I know you did your best. I know you better than anyone else, right?”
“Ah…Ah…”
“…I was blinded by money, so I was trading my life for money. That was the way I could survive, and it was the only valuable thing left to me. Until the boss came. That was the most precious thing to me. The person who taught me what it is is the boss. So don’t cry.”
The future has fallen.
Poseok.
The knee that was in contact with the floor was completely broken and scattered.
“I’m sorry…I…I…Couldn’t save you. I…I wasn’t good enough…!”
Despair.
It’s miserable.
I feel bitter.
Longing.
I’m sorry.
All kinds of emotions were swirling around and starting to sink the future.
“..No, my lord.”
Xiao came over and wiped the dew from Mirae’s eyes.
“Originally, my life would have been cut off that day, in that dark and despairing basement. But…”
Xiao smiled.
“You became my land. You became someone I could stand on and someone I could completely trust and rely on. You always did your best.”
“Oh…No…I…”
Haein approached.
“Oppa.”
“Haein… I see… I’m sorry… I… I shouldn’t have hesitated…”
Haein quietly looked at the future and then held Mirae’s hand.
Holding hands that look like they might break at any moment.
Haein spoke to Mirae.
“You know what? Before my brother came, I always made plans to commit suicide every morning. When should I die comfortably? How should I die comfortably?”
Everyone looked at Haein in surprise.
“…Even if I was alive, I wasn’t alive. Brother. I wasn’t alive. The one who saved me was you, not anyone else. So don’t be so sad. I don’t know what happened, but we are you. “I don’t blame you.”
“Ah….Ahhh….”
The future crouched down.
Despair.
It’s miserable.
I feel bitter.
Sorrow.
Longing.
I’m sorry.
…..
And thank you.
The person who was always busy saving others and could not save himself, finally today. He was saved by his family.
“..Thank you…Really…Really…”
The future crouched even further.
Tears fell to the floor.
My forehead touched the floor soaked with tears.
Mirae was afraid of the coming winter and wanted to spend a little more time with her precious people.
Enjoying the warm spring and being with loved ones.
But the coming winter far exceeded expectations of the future.
Spring disappeared in the cold winter wind.
Happiness is frozen.
Where happiness was frozen, only longing, regret, and sadness remained, tormenting the future.
But he is tasting spring again.
Spring that I thought I would never feel again.
The spring I missed so much.
Now, what the future will do has become clear.
Bringing in spring again.
Mirae stood up with a tearful smile.
“…I was foolish.”
The future opened its mouth.
“I was so drunk with spring that I couldn’t estimate the size of the coming winter.”
So bad.
A large crack has appeared on the face of the future.
The time of separation has arrived.
The future was scary.
I was afraid to say goodbye.
…But.
He remembered what he had once said to Ishmael.
“..So.”
‘The future’.
“I won’t do that anymore.”
No.
“I will definitely save you.”
‘Obscue’ spoke to everyone.
Blah blah blah.
“Please wait in the past. Let’s meet again then.”
‘Obscue’ began to fly.
Right before disappearing, ‘Obscue’ spoke to Obscue.
“..Don’t hesitate. And remember, ‘mosaic’ will not be of use to a ‘beauty queen’.”
Obs Q opened his eyes wide and panicked, but soon regained his composure and spoke.
“Of course.”
ObsQ nodded his head, and ‘OsQ’ completely scattered into powder and disappeared into thin air.
“…Ah.”
Crow just watched the flying powder pass by his hand.
“…Ha…Ha…”
Even in Crow’s eyes.
“..Master…”
Even in Xiao’s eyes.
“……”
Even in the eyes of Haein.
Dew gathered in everyone’s eyes.
“…….”
Obscure, who was watching the scene, quietly muttered.
“…’Don’t hesitate’. Yes, that’s right.”
Obs Q turned on his heel and walked towards a particularly strange scene.
Toward a picturesque landscape.
“Golden Supreme.”
“Uh, yes. Yes?”
“Description of the situation.”
“..Ah. Yes. So…To explain it briefly. The painter showed up and we launched an all-out attack. Then, all of a sudden, the space was created like that and there was no movement.”
“…Huh. You were waiting for me.”
Obscure laughed helplessly and started walking towards the picturesque scenery.
“..Uh. Hey. Obscure?”
“…..You shouldn’t hesitate.”
Obs Q stepped into a picturesque landscape.
******
A man was drawing a picture in one space.
Strangely enough, the man with his eyes tightly closed could not see, but he was diligently moving his brush and painting.
The man who was drawing like that turned his head as if he felt something.
“Ah, is there a guest here?”
The obscure was standing still there, glaring at the painter.
The man put down his brush and stood up.
…’Painter’.
I smiled while looking at the obscure.
“It’s fate that we met like this. Would you like to have a deep conversation with each other?”
As he said that, the painter opened his eyes.
Flashing.
The eyelids opened up and down, revealing red pupils and ‘jealousy’.
“I have so much to say and hear from you.”
