Chapter 353
TL: Zimmings
‘All the temples have been destroyed!’
The temple, which was a symbol of faith, disappeared and made him lost the power of God.
Neliard, who holds his forehead, stared fiercely at Chul-soo, who was shaking.
As he was about to make a barrier, Johann, Henry, and Isaac ran quickly.
Henry and Isaac simultaneously attacked Neliard’s front and back. In the gap, Johann grabbed Chul-soo’s back and took him away from Neliard.
Neliard held onto Henry’s forearms before he fell down. Henry’s arm was seen rotting under his sleeve.
“Gremory!”
I shouted and Gremory moved.
She came near Henry, after being thrown away by Neliard. Henry’s arm, which had been rotting, returned to its original state.
‘Is only Chul-soo’s attack working?’
As I was thinking about that, Isaac gritted his teeth and ran again.
“What are you doing to my brother!”
Isaac’s sword dug into Neliard’s abdomen.
Neliard blocked Isaac’s sword with a barrier.
Clang-!
A sharp friction sound rang out.
‘Isaac is dealing with Neliard, right?’
Why?
Why can’t Neliard attack Isaac like he did to Henry?
Juliet used magic to support Isaac.
Juliet’s barrier came over Neliard’s head.
At that moment, Neliard attacked Isaac. Just before the darkness hit him, Isaac managed to got out.
‘......!’
I took a deep breath.
“It’s magic!”
As I shouted, my allies looked at me.
“Neliard attacks using the allies’ magical power!”
Juliet and Henry looked at Neliard as if enlightened.
Johann shouted.
“Isaac, back off! Archers!”
Isaac quickly got out of the vicinity of Neliard. Archers who were supporting from the rear pulled their bow.
Arrows poured out as if it were raining.
Neliard spread the barrier to block the arrow, but his barrier was not as powerful as before.
Wherever the arrow hit, cracks formed.
‘More. A little more!’
Boom-!
The barrier was broken.
I picked up the bow that had fallen from an ally’s hand and aimed at Neliard.
Suddenly, my ancient memories came to mind.
Neliard’s voice, who was teaching bow to the young ancient Leblaine, lingered in my ears.
[Come on, Leblaine. Pull it.]
[I don’t want to learn archery.... I don’t want to know how to kill people.......]
[It’s not a way to kill people. It’s a way to protect yourself.]
[But... ... .]
[What you’re learning is not just a bow, It’s how you don’t give up. Leblaine, I want to teach you how not to run away.]
On top of that memory, the image of the Dubblede family who taught me bows in this life was overlapping
[Like this. Huh? You idiot, pull like this!]
[You’re so loud, Isaac. Do you think Leblaine is an animal like you? It takes time to get used to it. Now, Leblaine. You have to hold on tight. So that it doesn’t shake.]
[Ahh! What if she shoot me!]
A child, who was holding her mother’s skirt, shouted.
“It’s the lady!”
People’s eyes were drawn to the tool.
It was the same in all parts of the empire and in other countries as well.
Those gathered in front of the scene looked at Leblaine, who faced Neliard.
Neliard shouted at Leblaine in a terrible way.
[To protect you, I dreamed of a world where children like you did not suffer. Look, Leblaine. How festering this world created by Serga.]
[.......]
[Remember how you suffered in this world!]
Marquis Shuheil and Edgar Shuheil.
Count Brivi and his people.
Everyone who had met Leblaine looked silently at Neliard.
Neliard said,
[What did those people who made you a child of fate do to you?]
[.......]
[They’re the ones who named you the child of fate, and they’re the ones who persecuted you and pointed at you for being fake.]
[.......]
[Is there anyone in this world who has not made you miserable?]
[.......]
[They give you a duty, and if you don’t meet their expectations, they’ll bite and criticize you!]
People were startled.
When Mina descended, those who called her a fake and criticized her gulped.
Neliard’s mouth twisted.
[On the subject of pointing fingers at others and pouring out malice, they demand high morality from others. If they can’t stand it or attack other with their mouth, they’ll laugh at them because they’re weak.]
[.......]
[They easily blame people who don’t help others. Those who have worked hard to win were able to do so because they were born different from them, so they point fingers and get jealous.]
[.......]
[Because there is desire in the world, selfishness exists.]
[.......]
[So we need to get rid of it. So that they don’t dream of excessive things in the first place!]
[.......]
[But how do you bear things like that?]
[.......]
[Why are you, the one who suffered from them, stopping me!]
Neliard screamed.
Leblaine looked at him silently.
[I know. I hate them too. I’m a human too and I hate them. I was in so much pain.]
[.......]
[But there are people among them who held my hand.]
[What?]
Leblaine smiled faintly.
[There is Jean-Marc Noanoke, who swore allegiance to a child who had nothing and trusted her.]
The chairman’s eyes fluttered.
[There is Seria who followed me.]
Seria clenched her skirt tightly.
[Zachary, who protects me, also Wale.]
Zachary and Wale were silently watching.
[There is an aunt who told me that even if I hate the temple to death, there is no sin in the child.]
Javelin bit her lip.
[There are my brothers who accepted me. There’s a dad who didn’t forget me. There are also people of the territory who say that I am their master and cherish me]
[Leblaine... ... .]
[I will hate people to death, but I still want to protect them. Because there are people who love me.]
