Episode 328 Ouroboros (3)
Someone will consider you foolish.
People are bound to die someday, and in a world where everyone experiences loss at least once.
A tragedy that is all too common.
Some will even be surprised.
That the woman, who seemed to have no blood or tears, could only overcome the death of her family and was heading for ruin.
Some will consider you weak.
For 20 years, he said he couldn’t overcome what everyone else could have overcome.
Even Amelia herself felt it was not wrong.
But…
Fuuk-!
Even so, my sister would surely say this.
It must have been a lot of hard work brushing the hair of my younger brother, who was always young and had a lot of hands.
leaving sadness behind
He would have put aside the reprimand for why he had done such a thing and hugged him tightly, saying that he had suffered a lot.
Even if everyone in the world is uncomfortable with her and someone points her finger at her as a cold-hearted woman who doesn’t know emotions.
Because she is just a younger sister with a lot of tears to her sister.
Because he was the only person in the world who could consider himself that way.
Yes, that must have been the case…
“I’m not sorry…”
“To whom are you apologizing?”
Amelia closed her eyes, leaving the pain in her stomach behind.
“Sister…….”
In the end, nothing came of it.
For 20 years, I’ve been building my strength in preparation for today, but it wasn’t enough to overcome that man.
I tried talking to him to clear up the misunderstanding that he was related to the Rose Knights, but he didn’t even listen.
In the end, a battle ensued and I desperately waited for my sister to escape.
But that ends here.
“What are you looking at?”
The man sneered and twisted his sword.
A burning pain arose at the site of the injury.
“Do you think I’ll let you run away?”
The sharp pain brought her mind into reality.
“You should see what I had to go through.”
Soon after, Amelia’s body collapsed as she drew the sword, and the man grabbed her by the hair and dragged her forward.
What happened after that was very clear.
[Because I can tell you what it feels like to lose.]
He will harm her sister in front of his eyes.
just like that day
iron-!
My heart beats with each step.
My consciousness faded, and the scene in front of me changed every time I opened my eyes.
“It didn’t go very far either.”
man’s whisper.
“Oh sister…”
“Go first! Here’s my sister…!”
conversation that took place that day.
“Amelia…!”
A sword aimed at my childhood self.
And…….
Fuuk-!
A sister hugging a younger brother.
“sister……!!”
The man’s sword pierced her sister’s chest just like that time.
‘Didn’t change anything in the end…’
Amelia finally realized.
That this is the end of 20 years of wishes.
So the ending that the two lived happily ever after exists only in fairy tales.
“That’s a nice expression.”
In reality, only a stupid and weak human woman was standing there.
Pooh-!
Soon, the man pulled out the knife stuck in her sister’s body. And at the same time, consciousness became blurred and the scene changed again.
A dark sewer that smells like blood.
Kwaaaang-!
With a roar that filled the aisle.
“Oh, what are you even crying about?”
I felt the warmth of the cold skin.
“It’s not over yet.”
isn’t it over?
What do you mean?
I couldn’t tell.
But…
“You’ve worked hard. Now leave it to me and take a break.”
At that word, the tension in his body was released and his eyes closed.
“When you wake up, everything will be over.”
It was the last scene her consciousness permitted.
***
I cried out loud as Amelia lost consciousness.
“What are you doing! Take your sister and run away!”
Amelia as a child.
In short, it was a cry for Nmelia.
“iced coffee……!”
Nmelia seemed to get a little tingly at my instructions, then started running with her little body wrapped around her sister.
After that, I can leave it to the old man…
I moved my gaze.
“you……!”
I could see Rühenpraha looking around, unable to hide her feelings of bewilderment. I think they’re checking to see if the ‘Knight of Light’ came with them…
‘This bastard is really funny too.’
“If you’re going to do that, just splash around. Do you come all the way here to pick up something to eat?”
The guy didn’t answer my question.
He just averted his gaze with a strange expression.
“You… you couldn’t believe you came all the way here after wandering around looking for a way out?”
A question I asked just in case, even though I thought that it could not be.
The guy gave a short answer.
“……Fate just led me.”
“Heh, you’re talking like fate.” Sёarᴄh the NovelFire.net* website on Google to access chapters of novels early and in the highest quality.
I laughed because I couldn’t even pray, but when I thought about it again, I realized that the word ‘destiny’ wasn’t too wrong.
No matter how much you struggle, if everything goes as planned, what is the difference between that and fate?
While I was thinking about that, the guy asked me a question.
“By the way… did you come alone?”
“okay.”
It’s because the Knight of Light wasn’t even friends in the first place.
It wasn’t something to hide, so I just affirmed and asked what I was curious about.
“Hey, let’s ask one more question. Why are you so obsessed with him?”
“…you don’t need to know.”
“It’s kind of rough.”
Saying that, I only slightly moved my gaze to check on Amelia. The injury was recovering quickly enough to be distinguishable with the naked eye.
It was thanks to the fact that he tore another binding scroll before breaking in.
To put it simply, it means that as the three of them were united, Amelia was no longer affected by the [Unspoken Spirit].
‘If I had been awake at all, it would have been easier.’
It’s a bit sad, but what can I do?
If it was for the sake of SSR, this much suffering would not be such a hardship.
Yeah so…
“Get out of the way. If you leave her alone, you’ll—
”
I clenched my hand.
“Don’t talk nonsense, come on.”
It would be the final battle of this time travel.
***
“Heh heh heh……”
The girl who was running down the sewer passage let out a hot breath. There was no sign of cooling down in the muscles that had heated up as much as they were about to heat up, and more heat than that came from behind the wet back.
“Uh sister… are you okay…?”
While running with all her might, making it difficult for her to breathe, Amelia spoke nonstop to Laura, who had been spotted.
“…….”
The answer did not come back.
But the more she did, the more she tried to ignore the ominous feeling and continued to move her feet. But is it because he ran with Laura on his back with a body that was physically at its limit?
“Ugh…!”
Amelia, who was running at a canter speed, lost her balance and collapsed. It wasn’t that my foot got caught on something, it was simply because my leg was weak.
“Oh sister! Are you okay?”
Amelia checked Laura’s condition before the twisted ankle as she fell. I wondered if something went wrong as the wound fell.
“Amelia…”
A voice came out of Laura’s mouth as if she had been awakened by shock.
“Oh sister! It’s all right! It’s not long now. Don’t talk—”
“Alone…”
The weak voice didn’t reach the end, but Amelia knew what to say next. .
I guess I’ll just leave myself alone
If I had the energy to say it, all sorts of reasons would have been added, such as, “I’m already bad,” so it would be more reasonable for you to live as well.
But…
“Sorry, I don’t know what you’re talking about.”
Amelia carefully supported Laura’s limp, deaf body.
Laura’s body, which was 15 cm tall, felt particularly small.
Perhaps it was because of my mood, it seemed that I felt lighter than before.
There’s no way he’s recovered his stamina now.
“Blood…….”
It was because of the blood shed.
The weight of life that filled Laura’s body was released, and her body became lighter.
Amelia leaned her sister against the wall and tore off her clothes to compress the wound.
And I poured all the potions I had.
I didn’t panic at the thought of leaving the place, but it was something I should have done right away.
‘Why am I so stupid…….’
I felt a sense of shame.
If she had always been calm, she would have done exactly what she had to do even in this situation.
“Turn it off…!”
As the wound began to heal with the potion, Laura wriggled as if in pain.
There were thick veins on his forehead and neck.
“Oh sister! Be patient…”
Amelia put Laura on her back again.
Just a car that was just trying to stand up.
Aaaaaang-!
The aisle shook with a roar.
And…….
To-du-du-du-du.
The ceiling collapsed and rocks fell.
At the same time, Amelia’s body fell forward.
It’s because someone pushed her from behind.
coo-!
Falling forward, Amelia hurriedly turned her back.
Then I saw my sister.
It was a very unreal sight.
The scene where the lower half of the beloved sister is crushed by a huge rock.
“Amelia…”
“Oh sister…”
Amelia approached her like a possessed person.
Then Laura shook her hand.
“What are you doing!”
Simultaneously with Amelia screaming.
Laura’s weak, half-open eyes turned to her.
“There were times when I was resentful of you… uh.”
“Ah, I know. Ah, no matter how much my sister did. Anyway, now that I know, stop being stubborn—”
“Listen…!”
At Laura’s cry, Amelia shut her mouth tightly.
Her voice was like boiling phlegm, and it wasn’t loud enough to be called a shout, but for some reason, her body froze with such force that she couldn’t refuse it.
Took.
Laura put her hand on Amelia’s cheek.
And unlike before, he spoke in a very kind voice.
“You’ve been waiting for it.”
“…….”
“Isn’t that what you’ve always wanted…….”
At those words, something ran down Amelia’s cheek.
I couldn’t tell if it was sweat or tears.
But one thing is certain.
pounding-!
Amelia’s heart started beating like it was out of order.
Maybe I tried to deny it in my head, but in the end I didn’t even know.
“Why why… why are you saying that…”
Laura’s words are missing herself.
As if this moment were the last.
“Uh sister… don’t give up. Didn’t you eat the potion too? Now we just have to go a little further……. Don’t worry about the stone. Because I’ll clean it up soon. It’s definitely going to be that way……. Huh?”
Laura bit her lips with a painful expression at Amelia’s plea.
Of course, it was only for a moment.
“Forget all the painful memories of being here.”
“… ….”
“A normal life… will finally begin for you too.”
Laura smiled brightly, forcing her twitching jaw muscles up.
Then …
“…!”
It happened in an instant.
Tuk.
Reaching out her hand and pulling out the dagger that was stuffed into Amelia’s waist, Laura thrust it
into her own throat.
Fuuk!
“Oh no…!”
Amelia hurriedly pulled out his sword,
then sprayed the remaining potion on the wound and covered it with both hands to stop the bleeding.
But…
“Oh no. No no ……. ”
It was not enough. The blood
that had been
flows out
. Chii profit
. “Ah… ah ah…”
Amelia realized,
her
sister is no
longer
here. ”
And at that moment,
the ceiling collapsed
once more, pouring out rocks. Amelia saw this
but
didn’t avoid it.
They were going to stay together until the end.
But in a cruel world .” Eun didn’t even allow this.
“… oops!”
As if someone was pulling her back, her body fell backwards.
Kuung!
The back of the head must have hit a wall, so her vision is shaking.
In the consciousness that is getting farther and farther away Amelia looked at her sister who was buried in the rubble,
and in the middle of it, she
heard a voice somewhere.
Amelia
reflexively turned her head in the direction of the sound.
An old man was walking.
“Who… ..”
Hearing Amelia’s muttering, the old man looked at her without any change in expression. However, if he looked deeply, he seemed to be thinking about something.
After
such a brief silence .
He let out a sigh and opened his mouth,
“Auril Gavis. That’s the old lady’s name.”
