Chapter 336

Episode 336 To the Future (6)

“You say you can go back tomorrow? What do you mean by that?”

Amelia averted her gaze at my question.

“I’m not sure, but there was one thing I noticed from the beginning.”

“From the beginning…?”

My head went blank for a moment.

‘Certainly that’s why I put on an awkward expression every time I talked about the way back?’

I realized that the sense of incongruity I felt in the previous conversation wasn’t an illusion, but there were still things I didn’t understand.

“If you knew something from the beginning, why didn’t you tell me beforehand?”

As I stared, Amelia glanced at me once more, then averted her gaze.

In the end, I had no choice but to ask directly.

“Are you… you don’t want to go back?”

“That’s…”

Amelia shook her head, blurting her words.

“That’s absolutely not the case. I just thought it wouldn’t be bad to stay here a little longer…”

“What? Why?”

I involuntarily tilted my head, but when I calmly thought about it from Amelia’s point of view, I understood.

“That’s—”

“Oh, I see. I see.”

“Do you understand…?”

“Isn’t it bothering you that you left your sister behind?”

When we leave, Laura will have to live alone for the next 20 years.

It is natural that he wanted to help behind the scenes so that he could live a better life, and at least he would have wanted to confirm what kind of life he would lead and leave.

“I wish I could have just been honest. I didn’t know I couldn’t trust you that much.”

“Ah…….”

“Aren’t we colleagues. Just say that.”

“…I’ll tell you in advance next time.”

“okay.”

Quickly clearing up the misunderstanding between us, I moved on to the next issue.

That might be the most important thing in the current conversation.

“So, what were you thinking about that made you so confident that you could go back right away, even tomorrow?”

“Ah, that’s what you mean.”

At my question, Amelia came to her senses and explained the method, and I nodded my head as I listened attentively, even asking a few questions in the middle.

‘Well, sure…’

It was a plausible story.

No, to be honest, as soon as I heard it, I felt it right through my intuition.

yes this was it

The last role left to us.

***

Next morning.

After checking out early, we headed to a nearby restaurant.

Amelia said there was a place she wanted to go.

Well, it’s me, I wanted to finish my work quickly and go back, but…

“It’s a restaurant that will disappear in 20 years… Oh, of course, if you think it’s going to be difficult, it doesn’t matter if you go right away

. ?

_

Even Amelia seemed shy when she asked for a favor. Maybe she was embarrassed to show such an ordinary desire……. It

was a positive change worth cheering for.

It doesn’t mean that the bond has built up enough to make such a request. “If there’s anything else you’d like to do, tell me.”

”

Then… would it be okay if I stop by the Arandes Museum in District 9?”

“…A museum?”

“There is a painting I want to see. That… I wanted to see it, but I couldn’t see it even after visiting. It must have been sold to a wealthy aristocrat.”

Anyway, after eating, we headed to the museum. Amelia looked at the painting she wanted to see for over 30 minutes without saying anything.

And…

” …Would it be okay to take a look at something else?”

“Of course.”

Afterwards, I went around the art museum and looked at other paintings and statues.

To be honest, I was a little surprised.

‘I didn’t know I had such a hobby.’ Just by looking at his eyes

, you can tell he’s genuinely enjoying himself.

Well, that’s that, but this is this

, too.

I ate a meal.

And…

“Can I stop by Yandel one last place?”

At Amelia’s request, we rode the carriage again.

We arrived at the Leatlas Church’s nursery school.

Dwalky as a child . The same

place where I stayed .

We didn’t enter the building, but sat on a bench across from it and looked at Laura through the window. After

recovering from a sickbed, she was sitting at a desk doing paperwork. I heard

that the priest introduced me to a job at a nursery school?

I thought I was helping, but seeing as I was doing the paperwork, it seems like I’m already reading.” I

tried to tell Amelia that her memory wasn’t completely erased, but she just smiled bitterly and shook her head. “I don’t think so

.

” Are you sure?”

“My sister… can’t read.”

“…What?”

Then, with only a few weeks of learning from the priest, you’re

good enough to do administrative work? No. Because

there are few people like that in the world.

“…

He was a genius.” I knew that my sister’s memory was extraordinary, but…”

“What about the priest? Didn’t the priest who taught you how to read it strangely?”

“She thought it was just a process of memory coming back. My sister thinks so too.”

Maybe these sisters’ real talent wasn’t killing people. It’s just that

their environment made them that way. Sёarᴄh the NôvelFire(.)net website on Google to access chapters of novels early and in the highest quality.

How would Amelia have grown up if she had been born into a normal family? She likes to draw. He seemed to be doing it, but he might have become famous or—

“What are those eyes?”

Oh, did you stare too hard?

“…It’s nothing. How long will we see you? Looks like your sister is off work now too.”

“Now… I have to go.”

After Laura finished the paperwork and put on her overcoat, we stood

up

.

I unlocked the lock on the locked sewer and stepped down, because

that’s the only way to Noark.

“I didn’t expect to go there again. Is something going to happen?”

“It’ll probably be fine. Even if it’s not a graveyard, there’s another way to sneak in.” In the past,

I needed Noark’s identity, so I officially entered the country through a broker

.

What’s going to happen to Noark in the future?”

While we were on the way, we talked about Noark.

Even so, the royal family, the lord of Orculis, and even us, the 4th power, had a big incident, so I was curious about the situation after that.

“If it’s Noark, the next lord of the castle must be working hard right now.”

“Remedy?”

Of course, I know the result will be settled somehow, but I was curious about the process

. ”

Because Orculis needs this city too.”

I wondered if it would be possible to obtain it, but when I heard the story, there was a reason

. We need the lineage of the family.”

So, as soon as the lord of the castle learned of his father’s death, he killed all the bloodlines of the family except himself. He was

afraid that they would turn the weak brothers into puppets and rule the city…

‘ I’m a bastard. To make that judgment right there.’

Afterwards, the next lord of the castle made a truce by conceding a certain part to Orculis and gradually stabilized the city.

This is the whole story of this city for the next 20 years. ”

We have arrived.”

Moving stealthily away from the eyes of the guards, he escaped from the castle and passed through the streets of the city, which still smelled burnt, and arrived in front of a small mansion.

“Can you wait for Yandel? I’ll go alone.” ”

That ‘s right

.”

It was Amelia

‘s

house

.

Profit-

Opening the door and entering the house, Amelia looked around and looked around. It was a form with only basic early furniture, but it was more familiar.

This house, which the alchemist grandpa prepared, has always been this way. As

an adult, this house Even before leaving.

“…….”

The girl who was crouching against the wall, perhaps sensing someone’s presence, lifted her head and looked at herself.

“Emily-

sama …?” Amelia had no mind-reading skills, but

since she

was her past self ,

she

could clearly see what she was thinking .

He died.”

“Ah…”

Amelia said straight away,

and the girl lowered her

head .

He said,

“You will be entering the labyrinth again soon. And, as before, I will live a gutter-like life and meet and kill many people.”

“…That’s why.” Perhaps

the stimulating words had an effect. ”

Promise me

you wo n’t kill a barbarian.

”

Because the day will come when I think it was great luck.”

At that, the girl kept her mouth shut.

There was no expression on the surface, but Amelia

knew

. I don’t know, but at least

I don’t think this person is lying.

Or rather, I think he’s giving me sincere advice.

Like an older sister who doesn’t exist anymore…

Amelia

took the girl’s hand and put it on. .. and then opened and closed three times,

a gesture the sisters used to promise something.

“This… how do you…”

Amelia answered the girl’s question. “I didn’t.

I just loosened my hands, turned my back, and walked toward the door. I

trudged.

Soon, as Amelia stood in front of the door, the girl opened her mouth and let out a weary voice.

“What if…”

” …….”

“What if not killing the barbarian would put me in danger? Do I have to keep that promise even then?”

It was a self-confident question from her childhood. She

said that she would not make a promise she could not keep even if she thought of her older sister, who had taught her the importance of promises countless times.

But Amelia said confidently,

“At that time, you can do whatever you want. .”

Because that won’t happen anyway.

Soon after, Amelia opened the door and went out.

And…

“Oh, one last thing.”

“…….”

“Lock the door.”

Amelia quietly closed the door and turned her back

to see a barbarian waiting

for her in an alley some distance

away

.

Even if I couldn’t prevent my sister from dying,

it’s true that we helped her.

She taught me to always pay back when someone helped me.

“Amelia. But from a while ago, a blond kid was looking at me from afar… Shouldn’t we solve it?”

Amelia followed the barbarian’s gaze and turned her head.

Then she saw a boy with a familiar face.

“Oh, I wondered why he was so familiar. Is he Guardweaver Drowse?”

“Yes, he is right. I don’t have a real name.”

Amelia felt unfamiliar even as she said that.

The boy later informs her of the existence of a treasure called the Fragment Stone of Records. And right before he steals it, he betrays him and runs away alone, turning into an enemy

. The scar was also formed at that time.

It was for this reason that the oath was made between the lord of the castle and Noark. Well, there was an exact period from when to when, so it didn’t work in this era. Anyway, that’s not the important

thing ‘

It’s strange that I don’t feel anything.’

Even looking at that face doesn’t stir up anger,

as if the old feelings of anger and hatred had disappeared in her heart.

“Should n’t something be done?”

I realized the cause of

“No, it doesn’t matter. Leave me alone.”

“Leave me alone?” In the end

, looking back, it was a process.

Even the pain I went through while getting entangled with that guy.

To meet this man later

.

Laughed.”

“Did you laugh?”

“…….”

Amelia walked forward, ignoring the persistent barbarian’s question.

Then the barbarian hurriedly followed.

“Hey, but why doesn’t this work?

” Well, it’ll work soon.”

“No, but what if it doesn’t work?”

“Then, we’ll just have to live here together. I don’t mind though.”

“Uh… that’s a little bit… no, I’m not saying I hate you…”

The barbarian blurted out his words in trouble.

She laughed and laughed.

Not the awkward laugh she used to make in front of the mirror, but a real laugh.

Poof.

Amelia stopped walking and turned her back, colliding with the barbarian who was following her from behind.

And at that moment,

the world was colored with pure white light

.

***

‘Iron mask…?’

It was completely accidental that the blond boy found them. He was wandering the streets somewhere to see if there was a drunkard he could rob, and they caught his eye.

He was not wearing an iron helmet as rumored, but…

such a formidable physique . There were no humans in this city. No, I thought there were only a handful of them on earth.

Unless it was a barbarian.

‘Above all, the red-haired woman next door…’

It was the famous iron mask and Emily. After the boy saw the woman enter the house, he hid himself and observed them.

Soon after, the woman came out of the house and joined the iron mask.

But did he feel the gaze from this side?

”

…!”

The boy shrank his head as he felt as if their eyes met.

It was at that moment.

A brilliant light burst out and brightly colored this dark underground city.

A flash-! A

flash that seemed like a fleeting moment.

Confusion came to the streets where there was no one, the drunken people jumped to their feet and those inside the building opened the windows in a gasp

. That light just now!”

“…Magic?”

“Isn’t there something wrong with your body?”

Everyone panicked and searched for the cause of the situation.

However, a blond boy hiding in an alleyway was different.

“The iron mask has disappeared…”

They disappeared.

However, the boy did not question the reason.

The boy, who had to survive in Noark from the moment he was born, just left his body to instinct and ran away. And

…

‘…this stone! Light came out of this stone.’

The boy picked up a stone that had fallen on his clothes, put it in his bosom, and quickly hid in an alleyway.

And how long had

it passed? A light burst from there!”

“I saw it from that window over there, and a light burst out and a person disappeared?”

A guard who came to the turmoil at night began to listen to the situation and realized the identity of the man and woman in the center of the light. ”

A man who looks like a barbarian and a woman with red hair?”

“Iron mask! It’s an iron mask! The man the Lord of the Holy See was looking for! Investigate the remaining traces!”

“Identity corruption! There is an identity card between the clothes!”

“Nivellez Enche, a 6th-level explorer… is this the Iron Mask’s real name? The woman’s identity card?”

“Unfortunately, it was not found!”

“Captain, a little boy said he stole something from here.” “What? Where did

he go !”

The boy could not be found.
