127 – early appearance
+++
“What.. I mean.. It’s because I misunderstood and misunderstood, so I’m apologizing…”
“It’s not a misunderstanding, it’s not a misunderstanding. You’re right. You’ve been hiding something while thinking you’re a colleague, aren’t you?”
“No. How can a person reveal everything without hiding it?
“You don’t have to be sorry. Everything is fine. Even if you did something wrong, I will forgive you.”
“Wait a minute. Ron, what are you thinking?”
“Huh? What are you thinking? No idea?”
“Then why are you saying that? Why are you making that face…”
At Lane’s words, Ron touched his face once. It was an expression that was no different from what he usually felt.
But it wasn’t what they saw. His appearance now was similar to that seen by people who find peace only after letting go of everything, just before their end.
“I know what you’ve been thinking. I’m sorry. If we had cared a little more, if we had talked, we could have understood each other.”
“Me too… I’m sorry too. I didn’t make an effort to understand you and acted on my own..”
“I don’t know why you’re feeling sorry for me. No, I don’t know anything. Just because you know what I think doesn’t mean I can know what you think.”
“You just have to figure it out slowly in the future. You have plenty of time, right? We’ll always be together…”
“Ah.. no. I’ll tell you now. I was training our lacking parts for you. I judged that you were worried about us and kept overexerting yourself. Ahahahaha.. It’s not even funny.”
“No. It’s funny enough. You trained for me. I wonder if I’m like that.”
“Ron worked hard for us. Of course he deserved it. Rather, it’s to the point where we’re sorry we haven’t taken care of him.”
He still couldn’t tell if this was real or a dream. The world through his eyes was shaking and shaking.
In such a situation, their words and actions, such as stroking him, make his heart firm.
“It’s convenient.”
“Uh..? What do you mean?”
As he said, if this was a dream, it was a very poor imagination. That made me even more pathetic, and that made me even more annoyed.
‘Is this what I want? Acting like a lunatic and being cared for by them?’
“Why are you apologizing? You haven’t done anything wrong. You haven’t done anything wrong, and you have no reason to care about me.”
Ron’s voice lowered a note. A cold voice that had never been heard before, with a blade that was not directed at them.
Make sure to read from noble mtl com
No one can easily approach his attitude as if he is defending himself. Ron didn’t even look at them and continued to speak in a low tone as if stabbing himself with an outstretched blade.
“I’m the one who failed. I’m the one who kept bothering you, and even after we met again, I’m the one who made you uncomfortable by talking nonsense and slashing your face. I made you worry about things you shouldn’t have to worry about and kill people you shouldn’t have to kill. That’s right. Because of me.”
no one answered They were now, like walking on a knife’s edge, picking out what they could and shouldn’t say in a precarious situation.
Silence might not be a good option in the current situation. Ryan noticed that and hurriedly opened his mouth.
“Why do you underestimate yourself so much? Thanks to you, there are so many things I’ve been able to do so far. Everything you’ve done so far is protecting you here…”
If you looked at his notes, you would have noticed that the word ‘protect’ is an error, but Lian, who became emotional as he spoke, ended up paying for it.
“You don’t have to protect me. Please, I don’t need it. I don’t want to be protected.”
“Yeah. I know. I’m so grateful to you that I thought that on my own. I know what you want. You want to think of me as a colleague, do you want to be equal? We’ve always thought that way…”
“I think I’m going to go crazy because you guys keep coming out like that. Why don’t you scold me? Why don’t you scold me? It’s like you’re being so kind to dump me.”
“No… we just…”
“I didn’t ask for anything big. I wanted to succeed in the case I led. I wanted to live face to face with you guys. I wanted to be acknowledged by you. I didn’t want to be abandoned…”
“Ron. We recognized you…”
Lane stopped talking. Have you ever looked into Ron’s eyes and acknowledged Ron’s deeds and his sacrifices during that long time?
There are countless memories of expressing gratitude. But the conversation on such a subject ends there. Sincere gratitude used to end once and move on to another topic or deal with urgent matters.
That’s why I don’t remember looking straight into his eyes and saying ‘I’m glad you’re here’.
acknowledged his hard work. The three of them here… all four of them, including Odrox, knew he was struggling. However, I didn’t say it out loud.
“No… that…”
Lane’s words naturally blur. ‘Ron will be fine.’ Saying that, by judging only the outward appearance, what was postponed and postponed exploded. They recognized that he had collapsed due to their complacency.
Meanwhile, Solar’s head begins to interpret the situation in its favor.
‘yes. Ron is playing a joke. You’re the type to joke around from the start, aren’t you? He also played pranks on me all the time. So this must be a bad joke. It can’t be. I have to give you a sermon that pranks like this aren’t good. Looks like Rain and Lian have been tricked. If you look closely, you’ll see that it’s a joke. Gaze, breathing, movement of the extremities of the body, heartbeat, magic…’
And while continuing the interpretation, something disparate is discovered.
“..what.”
Something other than blood flowed through his body. not mana Something a little more alien and sinister was appearing and disappearing as if idling.
“What. What are you, Ron, what.. why..?”
As Solar mumbles something incomprehensible, Rain taps her on the shoulder and signals her to come to her senses. Lian, who was taken aback when Sola, who thought she must have come to her senses, expressed her confusion again, hurriedly stood in front of her and covered it with her body.
I don’t want them to look confused when I have to calm him down.
“Solar..! What are you doing! Wake up! Why are you trying to collapse here! You’re not that kind of person!”
“Didn’t you feel it? In Ron’s body…”
At that moment, their eyes went black. Black hair with rich and elegant beauty enough to cover it all even in sunny weather. The light purple hair in the middle reminds me of the Milky Way.
The extreme beauty of beauty to the extent that I am unconsciously fascinated by it. There were burn marks on her hands and arms, but they couldn’t hide the beauty. But there was something more striking than that.
Magi so intense that it makes you frown on your own.
The black demonic energy emanating from its body was trying to invade their bodies.
“Devil..”
“Could you call me Ereon?”
The devil introduces himself with a relaxed smile as if he has the upper hand. It was none other than Solar who reacted the most violently to it.
The demon he missed because of his complacency. The devil got involved with him because of his complacency. There were no more mistakes than this. shouldn’t have been
As soon as she sees the demon, she starts chanting. In contrast to Solar’s glaring expression, the complexion of the devil who calls himself Ereon brightens.
It was Ron, who had lost his will and was absent-minded, who perfectly read the devil’s expression and grasped his intentions.
You should be able to intuit that the point at which this chant ends is your end, but you make that face?
Instinctively reading the anticipation in the devil’s expression, Ron’s body moved. I blocked Solar’s chant with such agile movements that I could feel that my lack of motivation just now was acting.
‘I want to be of help’, what he had been thinking for more than half of his life was engraved on his body. He thought he had lost everything, but that will still remained and made his body move.
But, of course, the act of breaking Sola’s chant, as if defending the devil, was a sight that could not be viewed favorably.
“What are you doing, Ron…”
“What.. what’s going on…”
Rain, who kicked the hard and dropped object, and Lian, who moved his gaze here and there.
Before Ron could say anything to them in their confusion, the demon grinned and placed his chin lightly on his shoulder.
Along with goosebumps that sprouted in an instant, the thick concentration of demonic energy spreading from her body was completely absorbed into his body.
Confirmed. The fact that the devil was spewing out the demonic energy he had been holding in, and that he was sending out all the demonic energy that was newly created from the organ that created it.
However, it seemed that it was a little no, much too late to respond to it.
“Uh.. Ugh..”
The figure of him bending his back and moaning lowly reminds me of when he first entered the Demon Realm.
A low moaning sound as if he were expressing the pain he thought he would never see again hides his act of ‘defending the devil’.
Seeing him groan in pain, Ereon’s eyes begin to draw arcs. As if on the verge of complete victory.
But ironically, such extreme pain reminds Ron that ‘this is not a dream, it is reality’.
“Well done, my loyal servant. You protected me, right?”
Eron said that and laughed. In an attempt to stir their minds, he named him his minion.
He must be feeling pain as if his brain is burning and his skin is rotting away. There’s no room for an answer like this…
“..No, you asshole.”
hardened Ereon’s expression and body.
It was a very clear voice. Words that disparage him and his words that deny what he said spread and spread. Any action is slower than sound. She belatedly shut Ron’s mouth, but his words had long since reached their ears.
“What do you mean?”
Lane asked. Lian then approached Eron and Ron, grabbed his hand that was covering his mouth, and pulled it off. It was easy to get rid of, even though it was a powerless grip, it held the holy power as much as it could. The current Ereon had to neutralize it and pull out all the demonic energy to withstand it, so he had no choice but to let go while feeling the extreme burning pain.
“You can’t use magic.”
Reading Ereon’s expression and grasping her intentions was good. However, the pain inflicted by Magi was too great to calmly explain the reason for such a judgment. His words that follow are overshadowed by boiling moans.
The girls were also in a complicated situation, so they couldn’t interpret his ambiguous words.
The devil rested his chin on his shoulder. like friendly.
The devil praised him. But he rejected such a demon. The reason was not explained.
Demonic energy swirls inside his body. Like the man who sold his soul to the devil and exploded.
It was a series of incomprehensible things. When an incident is added to the mind that was already shaken by a single crack, confusion only increases.
Amidst the confusion, Lane starts rolling her eyes.
─Ah yes. First of all, let’s catch that demon and find out something. I think it has something to do with Ron…
Lane’s gaze, which had been rolling back and forth, turned to Ereon.
