Confession and Apocalypse (4)
A white finger with dripping water pointed to the red drop of blood at the end of the horizon.
The North Sea, full of flat ice cubes, was like the scales of a red dragon.
-Shoot!
“Oh, it floats! The sun rises! Heineken, over there!”
Ga-in’s pink hair floated up and down repeatedly.
I smiled brightly as I saw my partner having fun like a child.
She said that she loved watching the sunrise from a young age.
Last year of the year, first year. Or the rising sun on my sister and her birthday.
When I was mesmerized by such a spectacle, the pain was forgotten for a while, and I felt like I could bear it well today.
I was happy to share this moment with you.
– Beep beep?
“Yeah, it’s the first sun of the year. We humans value this.”
– Beep beep!
The courageous man sitting on his shoulder chirped happily.
The lizard hidden in my arms wags its tail from time to time.
We were waiting for the sunrise, covered in fur coats.
His Majesty Stanislas and Confucius Djibril Dioff – a little limp, but surprisingly well – were together for all this time.
The third-year students of Military Academy also went out and watched the first sunrise of the year 1615.
I glanced up at the man sitting next to me.
The prince’s jet-black hair flew to and fro in the sea breeze.
He spoke very little yesterday and today.
-Wheewoo…
“Father, are you okay? I think you are uncomfortable.”
“I am not the person you should care about.”
I whispered quietly and quietly, and that answer came back.
The two irises planted with embers were dark as if they were submerged in the deep sea.
I was going to say something, but I chose silence. A cold wind blew gently.
It was cold as if my lips were going to freeze, so I thought it would be better to be quiet for now.
-Wheeing, whiying, blah blah blah blah blah blah!
“Aww! It’s really cold!”
“It’s not cold at all! I can hold out, I can win!”
The students screamed as the sun was shining little by little.
The reckless heat made me laugh out loud.

Obviously, the weather wasn’t bad just past midnight, but around dawn, a gust of wind commensurate with the reputation of the northernmost point struck.
I don’t get very cold, but it wasn’t difficult to stand in this kind of weather without padding or padded boots.
As soon as the white breath was born, it was sucked into the air. It’s not really a joke.
– Beep?
“Wow, it’s so cold.”
-Sweetly…!
I mumbled and shrugged my shoulders.
There were no students at night, so I could fully enjoy the power of my friends, but now I have a lot of eyes to see.
Above all, he said that the key to this event is to meet the new north wind for the year-end and New Year holidays.
So you just have to be patient.
“You’re holding on to being stupid.”
Again, those words flew from the side. I spilled him and quickly cleared his face.
It reminded me of being criticized for not being able to manage facial expressions at the table.
Still, I’m an older brother.
– crumble, crumble
“·················ogue.”
Sedric voluntarily slipped his hand into his bag and pulled out a red manastone.
In the end, I failed to manage my expression and smiled softly.
This is the highest level of thermal mana stone among the higher classes, so even if mana was injected without ether, it gave off heat for more than a day.
The man glanced at me with a pathetic look.
Then he secretly drained his magic power under the flapping sleeves of his robe. aaaH
“thank you.”
“It takes a lot of work like this.”
“·················ogue.”
“Anyone will know that you are the lord.”
No, honestly, it’s not that much, is it? You’re saying that because you don’t know the cold.
I only grumbled inwardly and received the Mana Stone of the Tumulus Tumulus.
It was not superior to the holy stone filled with flame ether, but a pleasant sigh flowed as the hot energy spread through my hands.
Mr. Ga-in was now stabbing Sir John in the side and saying something.
The tip of her bald ears and her wide-open lips proved her excitement.
I slowly looked into my partner’s eyes…
“Is there anything you would like to say?”
“·················ogue.”
“As Cain, me, and Sir John said last night.”
I mourned my father so much. Then, the jewel-like eyes flickered for a moment.
At that look, the corners of his lips rose slightly. what else do i say
“If that bothers you, that’s fine. We can wait forever.”
“·················ogue.”
“You can talk when you want to talk. No one is forcing it. There is absolutely no need to be intimidated.”
“·················ogue.”
The man frowned when spraying, then he turned his head and looked at the sun.
I also got fed up and focused again on the spectacle in front of me.
At the same time, Ga-in was explaining something aloud to Grandpa and Confucius Diop.
“wish! When you see the first sun of the new year, you must make a wish. Now!”
“What is that? It’s not going to happen anyway.”
“Are you easy to talk to? Will you give me 50,000 francs when done?”
She has now spoken openly.
Confucius seemed to like it so much, so he smiled slyly.
Don’t forget to add one more word.
“Oman francs are good. So, wouldn’t it matter if I pray while watching the sunset later?”
“ah! If you’re going to argue, just go to school!”
As she jumped up like an angry puppy, Sir John gently grabbed her arms from behind and dried them.
The lightning wizard was caught by Grandfather and His Majesty.
‘み, Grandpa!’ ‘You’re too mean to a lady, sweetheart.’ A gentle name followed.

Only Ga-in and I know what happened in the tent earlier, but seeing him being treated in a similar way, I complained a lot!
“I’m annoyed, really!”
“Let’s make a wish, go back to the tent, and listen to Dung Sim’s explanation. The weather is not bad.”
Finally, Herrit’s father calmly settled the situation.
I giggled as I looked at the four of you, then clasped my hands holding the magic stone and prepared to make a wish for the new year.
He was puzzled by his courage, so he told me, ‘This is mainly done in our neighborhood.’
When I added that I don’t usually pray to the Lord, the little boy didn’t seem to understand even more.
The wrinkled eyes were very cute. ha ha ha.
“Ahhh-!”
“Let’s go! let’s fight! Let’s win!”
“We kill Griffins!”
“Wow!”
As I listened to the brave shouts of the students, I quietly closed my eyes.
I felt the red light of the sun glimmering over my eyelids. My wish is…
······please.
“What did you pray for?”
It’s a surprise. I opened my eyes and looked up at the prince.
Does it feel like he’s talking too much all of a sudden?
“Uh, it’s a secret. It’s a secret in the first place.”
“Is there any wish you can’t even tell the Imperial Family?”
What would you have done if you hadn’t been born as your real Majesty’s son?
I rubbed my lips and answered roughly.
“I made the same wish as Pilsner-sama.”
“·················ogue.”
Then the boy’s eyes widened.
For a moment, I felt as if I had said something wrong.
what? Have you ever prayed to become a good emperor?
Am I going to be a traitor like this?
“What do you mean? I made the same wish as Heineken-sama!”
suddenly! Ga-in’s rosy cheeks were full of vision.
Seeing her so excited today, her breathing was open and the corners of her eyes were curved.
The father-in-law sighed and looked away.
So I’m trying to point out that the three of us had the same wish—
“What about Edelweiss Sam? What did you wish for?”
“I accidentally made the same wish as my disciple.”
“Awesome, the four of us wished for the same thing. If you win this lottery, you’re already in 4th place!”
‘A good start!’ She smirked and ran to her grandfather.
The movement to win the lottery third place was clear, so I ended up laughing out loud.
I told the prince who made eye contact with a new sentence today.
“happy new year!”
-Shoot!
The white foam that came up to her feet swayed loudly once.
The man pondered the sentence I uttered several times. Like a distant memory.
*
After that, it was a day that went round and round again in bewilderment.
We had to surrender ourselves to the progress of perseverance without even having a moment to close our eyes.
Because there were piles of stories to share.
At the entrance to the barracks, Confucius Diop and Sir Johan, who had their backs on their backs, stood firmly guarding them.
“Uh-huh! Everyone, please focus. This is what I said after I cleaned up the inside.”
This presentation was made by Joan de Ars, a genius painter representing Lister, a first-class interpreter for Herrit Haines’ handwriting, the head of Baron Ars, and an apathetic person chosen by a great god.
Then she unfolded the scroll she had brought from the ark.
Herit, who was sitting on Grandpa’s lap, was excited and shook his hips.
– Tsar Luck!
“Look at this, I made a picture to make it easier to understand.”
“Wow······!”
I opened my mouth at the lizard wrapped in a blanket.
Diop blew a whistle from the other side, and Grandpa said, ‘It’s a talent given by the Lord!’ and admired it.
At first glance, it seems like a rough drawing, but the landscape painted with colorful pencils was moving vividly as if it would come out of a piece of paper at any moment.
A red and majestic dragon that rose from the center of the white frozen North Sea.
Waves running away in all directions in fear. A swarm of beasts pouring down like a disaster from the dark blue sky…
“How do you know at a glance?”
At its center, a hideous and gigantic griffin.
The lizard gripped my finger tightly. I asked Joan, stroking the kid’s back.
“Did this kid tell Dukshim this story?”
“Oh, that’s right. In Herrit’s words.”
The painter shrugged and let Ga-in hold his painting.
Then he tapped the dragon’s head with the tail of a colored pencil.
“This is the lizard kid you see now. The name is ‘Shrine’. Like other gods, they came down to this earth when the continent was created. and······. Just sleep.”
She wrinkled her brow, and flipped through her arms.
“sorry. I couldn’t memorize everything because I didn’t have the brain to study. I’ll take a look at what I wrote and explain.”
“Take it easy.”
We calmly waited for the interpreter.
Joan looked at his handwriting and wrote even more arrogant thoughts.
“What did you write, this… ah! here it is The four dragons were originally supposed to protect the southern part of the new kingdom, but it is said that a volcano erupted shortly after he came down. Roughly two thousand years ago?”
“Huh, a volcano?”
“ok. With that influence, the tail of the crescent moon has become incredibly fertile land? But after the eruption of the volcano, the four dragons lost their place to go. At that time, the fear and anger of humans against the fire attribute was enormous. Anyway. So I was wandering and wandering and I came to the sea… It was love at first sight. Because it is so beautiful that it is blue and wide.”
From there, it wasn’t much different from the ‘sea dragon legend’ we’re familiar with.
Despite the limitations of his attributes, the four dragons faced the hordes of beasts to protect the area full of water.
As the front continued to push toward the cold north, it did not succumb.
Then, the head of the Griffin clan unleashed a persistent and vicious attack, demonstrating his will to destroy the gods.
‘Kiruru-Look-!’
Like a being who doesn’t know it’s impossible.
“Even if it’s a beast, if it’s a myth level, it must have a lot of intelligence. Are you saying that you have shown your ‘will to destroy’ something that can’t be defeated?”
I tilted my head and asked. Then the lizard nodded his head coldly.
wow, so cute
“It really was! Because, unlike the other gods, the dragon’s weakness was completely exposed. So it doesn’t mean that the Beasts were chasing up from the East Sea to the North Sea without getting tired. It was very gratifying.”
Tok-tok, the painter tapped the snout of the fire dragon with a colored pencil.
We reflexively bent our backs and narrowed our eyes.
“······uh?”
Wait, now I see, under the dragon’s jaw…
“Are you a lady? Am I right? What was that name?”
Joan scratched his forehead and explained. I opened my mouth blankly.
Woman’s Mani (如意摩尼).
Another name is ‘Yeouiju’.
