Chapter 24: Garmon (2)

"Thank you for telling me."

"Any more questions?"

"A lot."

"Ask now when you are sane."

"Why is it like this?"

Jamie asked, pointing to the chains that bound Osiris.

It was Osiris, presumed to have been sealed here much earlier than when he was active as Diablo Volfir.

How did he come to be like this?

said Osiris.

"Because we lost."

"Are you talking about the 12 gods?"

"Two days. It's called the 12 gods now, but it wasn't then. Those guys... ."

At that moment, Osiris widened his eyes, raised his head, and convulsed.

Then, he drooped and lost consciousness.

Jamie put a hand on his head at the sudden anomaly, but Osiris never came back to his senses.

"Is it forbidden?"

Apparently, measures were taken so that the sealing-related things could not be disclosed.

This may also be because it is related to the past of the 12 gods.

Why do they hide the blank past so meticulously?

Between multiple world resets, what the hell happened?

We'll find out someday, too, but there's no way to find out right now.

Jamie was forced to get out, leaving Osiris behind.

"Young ga oh oh oh oh wow (you said you met inspiration)?"

Isis said with a piece of bread in her mouth.

Jamie frowned at the crumbs bouncing into the air.

Do you really need to talk while eating?

At least drink the water next to you and talk.

With those thoughts in mind, Jamie lifted the piece of bread from his face.

"I have a question for you about Garmon."

Oh. Come to think of it, you said you were looking for a place called Garmon. What did we talk about?"

"People who knew me a long time ago asked if I had come here."

"Is that so?"

"There was. those who followed me. Most of them died from the plague, but a few must have survived."

Hmm. But the days when this place was called Garmon was long before Abraxas was built. If you were a human living in those days, you would have already died and turned to dust."

After hearing the story, Isis ate the bread again with an indifferent face.

It's fair to think that she doesn't exist in this world, but Jamie had a feeling that one of them might be alive.

But it didn't come out of my mouth.

Nothing was certain, and if you think about it common sense, it's unrealistic to be alive.

If you are alive, you will someday appear before you.

in any form.

"What are you going to do today?"

well. I think I should meditate on my own."

Since I was not alone in the realizations I gained by coming here, I need to hold onto me and make sure I get it right.

That way, you can handle it completely on your own.

Isis nodded, saying it wasn't bad.

"Tell me if you need anything."

" Don't spill, eat."

"Namisa."

At Jamie's nagging, Isis stuck out her tongue with a shriveled face.

It was clear that he had been wasting his age of a thousand years.

Jamie left Isis' house.

My stomach rumbled.

Come to think of it, I haven't eaten a single meal today.

To be precise, I ate it, but immediately spit it out.

Bena's dishes were not edible enough.

Even wild animals will not pick up and eat them.

" Did I make Behemoth a lesser behemoth than a wild beast?"

Looking at Bena's dishes casually, it's clear that there is a problem with taste.

Next time I have a chance to make a workhorse, I vowed to pay more attention to the palate.

Jamie headed straight home.

Isis's house and the dormitory were not too far away, so I came back slowly for a walk, but I felt popular inside.

"Are you here again?"

Jamie let out an annoyed sigh and went inside.

Then Pyon lowered his teacup and waved his hand with a bright face.

I'm here?

Should I call this shameless, or should I call it good attachment?

I've seen Pyon a total of three times so far.

The first one is in the hall on the first day, the second one when they broke into the house in the morning, and the third one now after trespassing.

What is certain is that they have never had a proper conversation.

Wouldn't it be less than 5 minutes if the total time we met?

But why is he shamelessly sitting in someone else's house, sipping tea?

"Why is he here?"

iced coffee. If I stay here, the princess will come."

Then Pyon drinks tea.

Jamie had nothing more to say, so she reached out to her.

I was thinking of kicking him out of the house again.

I was planning to put a barrier just for her so that if I kick her out this time, she would never come back.

Pyon noticed this and quickly got up and waved his hand.

"Wait, wait, wait, wait!!"

"Any last word?"

"It's sad that it's the last time, so why ."

"Stop it."

vena! I came here because I have something to tell you about Princess Bena!"

When Jamie was really about to blow him away, Fjorn hastily spoke of his purpose.

"About Bena? I have nothing to say about him."

"Because you are Princess Bena's master. I'm the princess's education center, so I don't think I have enough to say?

It wasn't wrong, so Jamie withdrew her hand.

At that moment, Pyon breathed a sigh of relief.

"So what do you want to talk about?"

Jamie asked as she sat across from her.

"It's nothing."

Fyon also sat down again and placed his hand on the hot teacup.

Then he slowly opened his mouth.

"The princess keeps saying that she is following you, but I want you to stop me."

what?

"Princess Bena is the next queen. My role is to help him grow into a Valkyrie worthy of the throne. But, since I met you, I keep skipping education. It doesn't matter if you're just skipping education... ."

Fyon said while turning the tip of the teacup with her finger.

"I insisted on following you. That's not going to happen. Even for the survival of the Valkyrie."

" ."

"You seem to know quite a bit about our Valkyries. Do you know how important the Queen's existence is to us? Please let the princess dry. Please.

To say that it was not a big deal, Fyon's words were very important.

As much as he was once entangled with the Valkyries, he also knew to some extent their ecology.

Therefore, five years ago, Bena was returned to the queen's arms.

He knew he had to dry Bena again this time.

Even for the survival of the Valkyrie.

But it didn't come off easily.

Because I remembered the promise I made to her five years ago.

'Your seat will always remain by my side, so please come and go comfortably. This is a command.'

At that moment, Bena answered with tears in her eyes.

For Bena, those words would have been a source of power to endure for five years.

I felt that when we met again this time.

So I couldn't answer that I would.

"Jamie Wellton."

When Jamie didn't answer, Pyon hardened.

"Think of the Valkyries. You are the only one who can stop the princess."

"I will need some time to think."

Hey!

Pyon got up from the table, but Jamie didn't respond.

Reluctantly, Pyon sighed and walked towards the door.

The Queen's life is short-lived.

what?

"10 years since the princess disappeared. The Queen, who had lost her successor and her precious daughter, was getting worse and worse. The Valkyrie Queen is special. Everything from the process of birth to growth, ability, and the meaning of existence. But the strongest and weakest. It's because it's a flower. Once they wither, they die out of control. The princess has returned and is feeling a little better, but once a flower has withered, it is difficult to come back to life. The queen's lifespan is at most one year. The princess doesn't know that.

" ."

"You can't let the princess go with you on the rough road you're going for. Please, Jamie Welton."

Leaving those words behind, Pyon left the dormitory.

Left alone, Jamie closed her eyes.

* * *

master!

host!

In the evening, Bena and Behemoth returned together.

Even then, Jamie was sitting at the table, deep in thought.

The two paused in front of Jamie, who looked serious, and talked.

"Do you know why Master is doing this?"

"How am I? Master, wake up. host!

"I can't hear you. Can you pass out with your eyes open?"

"Master, I am hungry. Master, eat. You said Bena was cooking."

That's not allowed.

Hearing that Benna was cooking, Jamie raised her head and refused with a single blow.

Bena's cheeks swelled up.

"How about I made it!"

"You can't. A little later, Mr. Rosemary said he would bring a meal. You can eat that."

"The rosemary rice is delicious!"

Rosemary, the head of the Chinese tribe in charge of Avalon's housekeeping, provided for Jamie's every meal.

I couldn't eat her meal because of Bena this morning, but this time I will eat a normal meal that is not Bena's food.

tooth. Either I did it or Mr. Rosemary did it, there it is."

"Very different. a lot.

"Rosemary rice tastes better. Bena rice is just rice. You eat without thinking."

Behemoth also seemed to have a sense of taste.

Although it was still a problem in that he ate the rice made by Bena casually.

"Behee, whose side are you on!"

When Jamie and Behemoth crave for their cooking skills, Bena is back! shouted

vena. Stop screaming and sit here."

Jamie suddenly set the mood and asked to sit down, and Benna, who was angry, tilted her head and sat down.

Behemoth also looked closely and sat leaning in the corner.

Bena asked cautiously.

"Anything to say ?"

vena.

Yes.

"You said you would follow me."

"It's Pyon. I met Pyon."

Yes. You said that to Pyon."

"Because it was meant to be. You said that five years ago."

Jamie said, lowering her gaze slightly.

"You must become a queen and lead the Valkyries."

master!

"I heard that the Queen is sick. Am I right?

Jamie didn't even mention lifespan.

If she finds out that the queen's lifespan is less than a year, Bena also doesn't know what will happen right away, so she doesn't say anything.

said Bena, hesitating.

" I got permission from my mother."

Yes. A mother would say enough for her daughter. But Bena, you are not alone."

"It's okay, it's okay! You can stop by later! That's it!"

Bena explained as if there was no problem at all, using her hands and feet.

"The Queen said it was important, but it was okay to be away for a while. Uh, my mother also said that she traveled the world when she was young... ."

"The next place I will go is the battlefield. It's not just a battlefield, it's a great war for the life and death of the world. I can't just look after you there."

"I trained hard for 5 years! I tried so hard not to be disturbed by the master's side!

"If a war breaks out, the Valkyries will also join the war. Many Valkyries will die. Surely it will be Because there can be no sacrifice. However, with you, the Valkyrie can be revived."

"You just have to survive."

vena. It's a commitment without promise."

no!!

Bena grabbed her head and screamed.

Jamie couldn't say anything.

Hearing her sobbing, she kept her mouth shut.

Behemoth looked at her and called Jamie.

host ."

Silence passed.

Bena was shaking, clutching her head, Jamie looked at her sadly.

Know.

How bad are the words he utters to her.

But, as Pyon said, taking her on his own journey, he also knew how cruel it was to the Valkyries.

Calmly, she does not need to have Vena, but she is an important next queen that Valkyries must never have.

vena. Think soberly."

"How can you be sober? What did I wait 5 years for? I'd rather not go there... ."

I'm sorry.

"I'll cool off and come."

With those words, Bena left the dormitory.

Jamie sighed, unable to catch her.

Behemoth came up to me and said,

host Bena will surely understand the owner."

"Behemoth. Please come and comfort Bena instead of me."

"I don't think so. I will go."

Behemoth followed Bena out of the dormitory.

Being alone again, Jamie muttered as she looked at the half-open door.

"It must have been this."

Today, my mouth wrote.
