Episode 357
The time Chronoa stopped.
The will that Lorelai gave me.
In the end, through Shin Yoo-seong’s hand, he pierced Louis’ heart. However, not a single drop of blood flowed from Adela’s pierced body. There was only a golden wave flowing through it.
Tak-tuk-
Louis hesitated with difficulty. Grabbing his pierced heart, he stepped back. What poured through the cracks was the ego of Louise, who had ruled Adela.
“Ah...”
Louis, who let out a deathbed, felt it intuition. The power of the goddess will permeate deep into the body and restore Adela’s exterior as well as interior to its ‘whole form’. Then, his existence as a mere outsider would disappear forever.
Even though new opportunities arose, the same ending was repeated.
“Why... why does Heaven only hate me? A hand that had never been stretched out to me...”
Louise tried to block the flow of energy as she held on to the wound. However, it was impossible to stop the heavy rain with the palm of my hand.
Louise’s ego was dying, her life was dying, her existence was fading.
ah sorry
“It was his choice that made me fall into hatred, that made me resent mankind, and that made me become a witch... wasn’t it his arrangement?”
Louis looked up at the frozen ceiling. Warm sunlight streamed in through the cracks.
Winter is over.
The world that spring has come will be so bright. Life is for the winners, and happiness is for the living.
Having despaired over and over again over a subject similar to hers, Adela held in her hands what Louis had never enjoyed before.
“...Why do you reach out to this guy over and over again...? Wasn’t the sky harsh? Or was he only harsh with me?”
Lewis hated humans.
The humans of the village accused her powerless mother of being a witch and executed her, and eventually brought Louise to justice.
Humans were afraid of vague plagues, but they were not afraid of the powerless girl and willingly sacrificed it.
okay. It was such a rampant world. Wasn’t that why Heaven listened to the oath? The moment I felt the burning pain on top of the raging fire. Didn’t he promise revenge on himself?
Lewis transcended into hatred.
Closing the future of humanity was the reason she became the ‘witch of winter’ because humanity took her own life.
“Why is only this guy being saved in the same despair? Hehe... Hehe, it seems that I have earned a strong hatred.”
If this was the case, I’d rather end my life on a flaming board. What was the long, long time he had been waiting for?
“...you told me to return it?”
Louis looked at Shin Yoo-seong with resentful eyes. As Shin Yoo-seong said, it was Louis who imprisoned Adela in the world of images that could not come out.
“My answer is... No.”
Lewis lost his vitality with the answer. Her eyes lost focus and her body, which had lost strength, collapsed helplessly like a doll. Louis did not reach his goal, but he was thinking of making Adela his companion.
“Adela!”
Yooseong Shin embraced the falling Adela. With Louis’ death, the barrier surrounding Ruin Castle was lifted. I could feel the sunlight pouring down on the completely collapsed ceiling.
“Wake up... Adela.”
Which choice would have been the best?
What choice had to be made to get Adela back? Maybe it was wrong in the first place?
If I hadn’t given Adela the courage, if I hadn’t had the determination to overcome, if I hadn’t received the mission... Yes, if only I had.
Yooseong Shin caressed Adela’s cheek in his arms. But Adela didn’t move. It was peaceful, as if asleep.
Lorelai sighed as she saw Yooseong Shin hugging the motionless Adela.
“Ah....”
Couldn’t he have been able to save it despite Chronoa’s help? Of course, it is a very simple principle that someone needs to sacrifice to save someone. Nothing is gained without sacrifice.
Angela doubted her own eyes. In Volterra, where all citizens were evacuated, a child with horns and a doll of a killer whale suddenly walked out of the subspace?
“dad! Adela’s mother!”
In addition, when he even ran to Shin Yoo-seong and Adela, calling them his parents, even Lorelai was caught up in Velvet’s face.
“Oh Dad? mom?”
When the heck did you get married and even have a child like this? I was dumbfounded by the unbelievable development, but I didn’t give it time.
“velvet? Did you come alone?”
“No, come with Orca! Is Adela’s mother sleeping?”
At Shin Yoo-sung’s question, Velvet shook her head. Even Velvet, who had an extraordinary corner like a dragon, seemed to recognize Adela’s current state as sleep.
Shin Yoo-seong pondered over how to explain the current situation to Velvet.
Will young Velvet be able to understand Louise’s curse? How will Velvet react if she learns that she may not wake up again?
“...Yes, it might be a very deep and long sleep. You may not be able to wake up for a while.”
As Shin Yoo-seong struggled to tell the story, Velvet looked down at the sleeping Adela and listened quietly.
Then Velvet smiled brightly as if everyone knew and comforted Shin Yoo-seong.
“Kyahang! don’t worry! dad! Adela’s mother will wake up!”
It didn’t matter if I had a long, long nightmare. If Adela got lost and couldn’t find her, Velvet thought she could find her this way.
It was impossible with human common sense, but Adela and Velvet, who continued to be together from egg to hatch, were bound by a strong bond.
“Velvet... will wake Adela’s mother!”
Velvet assured her and put her hand on Adela’s forehead. Then, just like Adela who fell asleep, she fell asleep peacefully in Shin Yoo-seong’s arms.
* * *
As if a torn picture was stitched together, vague memories stirred in my head. But no matter how hard Adela tried to recall, the memory was foggy.
Where are you?
what was i doing
Adela tilted her head and then looked in the mirror.
“Ah....”
The self in the mirror was shorter than the mirror and was wearing a pajama that had just woken up, holding a teddy bear.
“i get it.”
Adela, as if realizing what she was doing, walked out into the kitchen, hugging the teddy bear.
“Yeah right...I was waiting for Mom and Dad with Ron.”
Dorrruk- Tok!
Now Adela is used to opening canned beans with a can opener. It was difficult at first, but now a lot of time has passed since my parents left.
Adela had long been accustomed to living alone.
A slice of bread was placed on a white plate, and an open can of beans was poured next to it. A modest but not bad meal to skip a meal.
“Yes. theory.”
Adela, who had been munching on bread for a while, spoke to the teddy bear. Ron, a teddy bear given to her by her parents, was Adela’s only conversation partner.
“...After we finish this meal, let’s go together to find Mom and Dad.”
Now I’m tired of waiting alone.
So let’s go on a trip Let’s meet our families and find happiness again. Little Adela thought so.
But tragedy has already happened. There was nothing Adela could do. Adela was just too young to even realize it.
It was a fixed past and time passed by. Nothing can be changed. But this is a dream world, not reality.
Ding-dong-
Someone came to Adela’s house and rang the bell. The story is different.
