Reconciliation (14)
“As far as I know, there is no specific name. Shall we call it rags because it’s uncomfortable?”
Leonhard said, taking out a sword that looked worn out.
“A monster that rips out the souls of the victims it kills and attaches them to its own. Reading people’s minds and penetrating into their weak spots to neutralize them is the tactic of those guys. With a little hypnotic added.”
“Then all the words I heard… ”
“I don’t know what you heard, but it’s all lies from him.”
Leonhardt’s hand wiped the tears from Elina’s eyes.
Tucking Elina’s fine hair behind her ears, he met her gaze.
Elina let out a breath as she hadn’t been able to exhale for a long time.
‘It wasn’t.’
It was as if a light that had been extinguished came on again.
He wasn’t that disgusting.
But even if the monster’s words weren’t entirely true, there was certainly a hint of truth mixed in between them.
The next moment, the soul rags let out a deafening scream.
“Almost done! I was able to extract the soul now!”
Elina stiffened at the eerie cry.
Leonhard hugged Elina, who was shivering with anxiety, and whispered.
“Stay still.”
Leonhard’s hand gently stroked Elina’s stiff shoulder.
Power drained from her body, helplessly leaning into Leonhardt’s arms.
“That’s fine.”
Relief came from the words whispered in my ear affectionately.
It felt like everything was at peace.
Something I’ve often felt before.
‘When I pray to Neftam-nim.’
It’s the feeling I felt right then.
The moment Leonhard finished speaking, the monster attacked.
The monster’s arms, which were of different sizes and shapes, had turned into elongated claws.
The hideous appearance was no longer frightening.

Just as Leonhard had said, Elina was still in his arms.
Without taking your eyes off the monster’s face.
In the next instant, the monster broke in two with great ease.
Without even being able to scream, he disappeared in Leonhardt’s hands.
Leonhard put his sword in and turned his eyes to Elina.
“Elina.”
Leonhardt’s voice called my name resonated very affectionately.
“yes.”
“Well done.”
His eyes curled softly.
The moment she saw it, a light settled in Elina’s heart.
“I cried a lot. My eyes are swollen.”
Leonhardt brushed away Elina’s swollen eyes.
Elina’s mouth groaned at the slight pain.
“But you keep trying to run away. don’t listen what about this?”
Leonhardt’s voice was slightly elevated.
The touch on his cheek was still friendly, but he was clearly angry.
“well… sorry.”
Elina trembled and said.
If he’s angry, I’m afraid he’ll be really abandoned.
I’m afraid I’ll leave myself alone in this black world with nothing.
“I’m just a little angry. As long as Elina is safe.”
Leonhard kissed Elina on the forehead.
Elina blinked as if she was familiar with the kiss and stared blankly at Leonhard.
It was like a puppy waiting for something more to be done.
Leonhardt laughed, ran her hair through her hair, and kissed her again in the same place.
“Can you walk?”
“yes. I can walk.”
“Would you like me to hold your hand?”
Elina hesitated at his question, then got entangled in Leonhardt’s arm.
“… yes.”
It was cute to see Medalli humming softly.
Shrinking and frightened, he was holding his arms as if he would never fall again.
As Leonhard and I started walking, Elina was lost in thought.
Could the monster’s words be all lies?
Is he really innocent?
Even in the warmth and relief of the embraced arms, the guilt did not disappear.
“What are you thinking about?”
Leonhard looked at Elina, who was lost in thought, and asked affectionately.
Elina lowered her eyes for a moment, then looked at him and smiled a little.
like a virgin As always.
But was she really a pure-white human enough to be called a saint?
Couldn’t he already be a human who deviated from what Neftam-sama said?
And most of all, Lord Neftam didn’t help.
Conversely, Leonhardt was always by his side.
When he needed help, it was Leonhardt, not Neftam, who came running.
It might be better to rely on his words.
‘More than anything… ‘
Elina thought of Ellin.
It seemed that he knew only after going through a series of events.
What he needed was not faith, but the love of those around him.
So, if only she could be like Elin.
That we might not be jealous of each other and we might be able to get along just like before.
And to that extent, he could have laughed at Leonhard’s touch.
It’s not the distant, sublime, rational love that Neftam gives you, it’s something you can get right away…
hot and sweet affection.
“… I have something to tell you.”
In no time, the tears had stopped.
Finally, Elina let out a short breath containing hesitation and raised her head.
Leonhardt tilted his head and met Elina’s eyes.
Her kind gaze was very kind.
He neither urged nor forced an answer.
It was as if the choice was handed over to her.
In fact, knowing that there are no options left.
“Gongja. I… ”
I felt like I was falling from a very high place.
It felt like my eyes were falling so fast that it was dizzying.
With the next word, it seemed that the ground would come so close in an instant that it would be completely shattered.
“… I will abandon Neftam. I don’t want to believe it anymore.”
Hesitating and trembling with fear, the words he uttered seemed to stop his breath.
I choked on the extreme anxiety of having to throw away something that shouldn’t be thrown away.
Could it be that now, he himself will be punished and die?
Maybe it’s gone forever Elina was terrified, even breathing stopped.
Leonhard hugged Elina tightly.
As he lowered his head, he pressed down Elina’s flowing hair and kissed her eyes.
“Well done.”
“really… Well done?”
“Do you want something?”
Elina hesitated and nodded.
It’s embarrassing, but now he thinks that he can receive what Elin received.
“okay. I will listen to everything.”
Leonhard smiled endlessly.
The strength drained from Elina’s body to the point that she forgot when she was so nervous.
He lightly hugged her as if she was about to collapse.
Elina let out a small laugh as if she had become air.
There was no body shattering.
Instead, sweet rewards awaited after the fall.
Elina even felt guilty.
‘Is it really okay?’
He is a sinner who deceived Elin and betrayed Neftam.
The things he had built up and believed in until now were shattered by his hand.
Strangely, however, I felt more fulfilled than ever before.
That guilt was sweeter than any negligence.
“Wait for Elin.”
Leonhard whispered lowly.
“Now you two have to reconcile.”
Elina wrapped her arms around his neck and nodded.
And I closed my eyes. As if praying for the warmth that embraced you.
May everything work out.

When I returned to the safe zone in the Abyss with Elina, Ellin had already been waiting for me and Elina.
Elin glared at Elina in my arms as if her eyes were cold.
I felt sorry for Elina, who was wiggling her round shoulders.
However, what came out of Elin’s mouth as he approached was a blunt, albeit blunt, request for regards.
“… My eyes are extremely swollen. it’s okay?”
“yes. Sorry for worrying you.”
Elina smiled vaguely and said.
Feeling strangely awkward, Elina became nervous.
“Will the two of you talk separately?”
I said as I dropped Elina off.
“no. Fine… Wow!”
I helped Elena, who stumbled for a while due to lack of strength, to balance herself.
Elina smiled appreciatively at me, grabbed me, and stood upright.
“done. Because I knew Elina was safe.”
Elin said bluntly and stood in front of Elina.
Elina looked at Elin with a wink.
The two girls, who looked alike, looked at each other for a long time and then laughed at each other.
“… sorry. Elin.”
“me too.”
Seeing them reconcile so easily, I laughed a little.
The next moment, the two quietly muttered something.
But the contents… I felt terrified and backed away bit by bit.
But when they both looked at me at the same time, I realized it was already too late.
“… Confucius.”
“Confucius!”
Elina and Ellin were entangled in my arms at the same time and looked up at me.
Silver eyes turned to me at the same time.
His eyes desperately wanted affection and rewards.
“What you promised.”
“You have to do it now!”
Elina and Ellin’s words made me sweat.
“At the same time… Isn’t it?”
However, the two showed no signs of backing down.
“But if one side gets it, they’ll be jealous… ”
“So if you don’t want to be jealous, it’s okay if the two of you are together.”
If the agreement is going to work out like this, why did you fight?
I hugged them both at the same time and lightly kissed each other.
When I was kissing one of them, the other lightly watched as if I was envious.
In the midst of the silver thread hanging down, I couldn’t stand it being cut, and I overlapped my mouth with the other one again.
It was only then that I could tell that the texture and scent of the twins’ lips, Ellin and Elina, were very subtly different.
As I hugged the two slender bodies and brushed their backs, they let out a similar moan and shivered.
“Me too… ”
“Elin kissed you some more earlier.”
It’s cute that he gasps for breath, grumbles a little with his mouth, and gives him a jealous gaze.
Their gaze was as desperate as they both craved affection and lust.
Above all, Elina wasn’t like that originally, but I made it that way.
Of course you should take responsibility for that.
‘By the way, taking turns kissing doesn’t neutralize the addiction.’
I’m a little sorry. It would have been convenient if this was resolved.
As expected, in order to solve the addiction problem, it seemed that the problem of Neftam and Yuan had to be solved.
.

.
After a while, I was standing in front of a warehouse-like building.
It was in front of the place where Neftam was imprisoned.
“Gongja. Why are you here?”
Elina, who came with me, looked at the warehouse with a curious look.
“I have something to show you.”
I said with a grin.
The door opened, revealing the scenery inside the building.
Neftam, who had been held within it, raised its head towards me.
And Elina and Neftam’s eyes met.
