Bao's question, which began after the meal, barely stopped until the sun went up. Barely out of the woods, Erwin leaves the log house and strolls through the heart of the fairy forest. Many young fairies are enjoying the warm sunshine recordings because the day is clear. It was a peaceful scene.
“Ah.”
At that moment, I stopped walking on the beautiful grass like a green velvet. After a while, Erwin, standing still, sits down as if he had collapsed. It was okay just to wake up in the morning, but Ami is very upset about the sudden onset of pain. So I put my hand on my left chest, and I said, "Phew. Phew.” I took a breath.
“ ……. ”
A breath of fresh air should calm him down a bit. Erwin, who had been lowering his head for a while, suddenly spewed his breath vigorously and lay in the bushes. There is a shade of water that has not been hidden in the face facing the clear sky. His right hand is still on his left chest.
Suddenly, the memory of the day when the pain of the heart began hit the brain. To be more precise, it was the first time I unsealed the ruins and encountered Tanatos.
Although he was contacted as soon as he returned to Ragnarok and immediately left for the Fairy Forest, Erwin was the most opposed to unsealing him at the time. I don't know why I did it. It was just a kind of gut feeling, with no basis. I just felt hesitant before the stone gate. T r a ns la t e d by jp m t l .c o m
However, that emotion grew exponentially with pain over time. At times, there was a day when the stone gate was opened and the memories of the black smoke were reproduced into horrible nightmares. It felt like something invisible was slowly imprisoning me.
‘Why, why…. ’
I kept pressing down on my heart and asking myself, but if I had any answers, I would have come out earlier.
Erwin closes his eyes as he feels as if he's wandering around a labyrinth without an exit. And he quietly surrendered himself to the horses carried by the good wind. You think you have to get up before noon.
*
How long has it been?
Transl at ed b y jp m tl .com Erwin opens his eyes slightly, feeling relieved. And when I saw the red color spreading slowly like a water-colored paint with a slight glance, my eyes lit up. I fell asleep deeper than I thought, but that wasn't the only reason.
A pair of green eyes, contrasting with the red waters of the sky, were sliding down from above.
“You're up. My old friend. ”
The moment you hear a luscious voice, Erwin hurries up and straightens his posture. I was about to get down on one knee.
“It's okay. Just relax. ”
I stopped moving to the tone I was desperately asking for. The silver-haired fairy, who sits with her knees together, smiles at Erwin. Erwin barely speaks.
“Nimueh. ”
“How are you? How are you feeling? ”
Erwin closes his mouth. Of course I wanted to say okay, but then you'd be lying. Erwin turns his eyes away, not knowing what to do, and his worrying look becomes more powerful.
An elf. A child born as an elf finds the right role for himself while growing up, and when he becomes an adult, his or her membership changes depending on his or her role. Affiliation is an organization that carries out tasks specific to its role, including combat, reconnaissance, assassination, support, guarding, and living. It is divided into six categories, and the elf in charge of each group is specifically entitled "High."
Furthermore, there is a fairy who oversees six groups, a fairy who specializes in guarding this fairy. And now there is an elder on behalf of the vacant queen.
This is the current organization of the tribe leading the fairy forest, and the fairy in front of Erwin's eyes was Hy, Nimue, who was tasked with executing the group.
“This is bad. A disease that can't be found.... Is that why you didn't want to come home? ”
“You, Nimue. ”
Erwin gives a slight glance, and Nimue looks away with a smile. And I sighed deeply.
“I was so heartbroken that I came out for a while. But then I found Erwin asleep. ” T ran sla t ed b y jp m tl .c o m
“I'm so heartbroken.... Is there something bothering you? ”
“It's a bad habit to know and ask. Erwin.”
“… Ah. ”
Speaking in a pink tone, Erwin looks fierce. Nimue breathed another long breath.
“I haven't had to worry about this in a hundred years. Much more than when I had to send Erwin into the human world... ”
“Don't you want to sit down as queen? ”
Erwin asked a key question.
“Elder, I'm worried. ”
He said bitterly in Nimue.
“We must be pleased that the Arkane Orcs have fallen. But I think I'm more wary of the human power that actually achieved that. ”
“Humans must be allies with us. Then why is that? ”
“Yes, an alliance. Close to impossible, to be exact. Of course, the Elders have no intention of breaking this alliance, of hostility to humans, of course. ”
“Then…. ”
“Except you're afraid of a man who's being counted differently every day. Maybe I'm just being cautious of situations that might work in some way. ”
“ ……. ” T r a ns lat e d b y jpm tl.c om
Unbelievable sighing, laughter.
“Well, maybe that's why we're bringing up the once shriveled queen selection again. We need a leader now more than ever. ”
As soon as I finished speaking, a moment of silence passed.
“... I have similar dreams sometimes. ”
At that moment, the sound of a strange word came quietly. However, Erwin bites calmly, as the opponent is the opponent.
“Dream? What kind of dream? ”
“It's a little funny, but... In my dream, I'm looking at a little boy on a white horse, holding a yellow blob. Oh, I saw his face. Beautiful, yet virtuous hair resembles a childhood margarita. ”
“Yes?”
“I mean, it's like seeing a margarita child. ”
He said that with a quiet smile on his face. Erwin, who was briefly shocked by the light, laughed and sat next to Nimue for a moment. Like I want to hear more.
“When I stuttered my dreams, I think my child was very happy. Surrounded by someone, always smiling. That smile makes me happy, too. ”
“And?”
“I'm going to go up to him. Slowly, very slowly. And then I put a crown of thorns in his little head. ”
“Hehe. It makes me feel better just hearing it. ”
Tran sl a t e d b y Jp mt l .co m Erwin blinks.
“Oh, maybe it's a vision. For example, Nimue will find Margarita's child... ”
“Maybe so. ”
It was then.
“... But, there. ”
Suddenly, Nimue's voice lowers.
“Put on a thorn coffin, gladly look back.... ”
Suddenly, it's a very unusual sound.
Erwin looked back without a thought.
“! ”
It was very timely at the moment.
Nimue's eyes, which had been glowing with light of turquoise until just now, were suddenly staring at him, turning colorless. Erwin blinks reflectively and quickly shakes his head.
And looking back, Nimue was repeating his mouth as if to say something.
“In retrospect... ”
But in the end, I woke up calmly, whether I could not connect the words.
“Erwin.”
The eyes of the two fairies intertwined in the air. A brief pause. But the silence did not last long.
“One thing, promise me one thing. ”
Without any foresight, Nimue's words burst like a bot.
“The elder's will is solid. And of course, so are the other high's. Soon a new queen will be announced. It's hard for me to resist more than this. ”
“Yes, I know. There are a lot of people who like it very much. And I empathize with the need. ”
Around the time Erwin frowned with a blank face, Nimue spoke all of these words very quickly. They don't even give me time to argue.
“Me.”
Erwin tries to get up quickly in an awkward mood. However, at that moment, Nimue reached out his hands and pressed his shoulders.
Power was a gentle flick without a fingernail, but the action contained a profound magical force that could not be dared to resist. Eventually, I sat down in the Bush.
“I mean, I promise you, right now, My old friend, my very own sword. ”
A faint body trembles with a faint voice whispering in my ear.
“Whatever choice I make, will Erwin only trust me to help?" ”
“Yes, yes. ”
“No matter what I am, no matter what happens to me? ”
“Well, of course. It's always natural. ”
Erwin nods frantically.
“Really, really? ”
Soon after the third question, Erwin finally realizes something strange. There is a huge difference from what Nimue used to say, but most of all, I started to worry about the contents of the dreams that were cut off in the middle.
But Erwin had no choice but to keep his head down. At least for now.
“... Yes. ”
After being pledged so many times, Nimue took a deep breath and spilled his tears. After staring at Erwin for a moment, he smiles sadly and turns away. And as if it were hard to stay here, the silver-haired fairy quickly hides its tracks through the forest.
After staring at Nimue's disappearance for a long time, Erwin looks down, feeling a sense of fascination.
The sunset sky was already at its highest, giving a deep purple glow to the Fairy Forest. Rather than just beautiful, it was a color that I thought was terrifying. It was that moment.
“ ……. ”
For some reason, the thought of Eldora grabs Erwin's brain for no reason.
Meanwhile, the same time.
Boom!
“I beg your pardon?”
Ragnarok, in the Blue Palace, the castle was buzzing in the gutter.
