163 – Necrosis (14)

Are you scared?

“… That’s right.”

I couldn’t deny it.

“I’m scared.”

Wiz readily acknowledged it. The kid laughed at it. She sounded like a joke.

“Puh… What is this kid afraid of? Just one kick to the stomach and he collapses.”

Of course.

The power difference between men and women.

That has nothing to do with a child in infancy who has not developed secondary s*xual characteristics.

Wiz is overwhelmingly strong compared to Ai, and this is common knowledge.

That’s why Ai just treated Wiz’s words that he was scared as a joke.

Just by looking at the scars she saw earlier, she should be able to feel how weak she is.

“But… scared….”

However, Wiz’s tone could not be dismissed as a joke.

“… Why?”

“I’m afraid you will hurt you.”

That word was not slow. A heart that is so firm that it cannot be put off.

Fear.

The fear of hurting yourself by hurting others.

An act of self-defensive avoidance.

“Because I hurt you again… I’m afraid I’ll do something irreparable to you… That’s so scary…….”

What Wiz has is deep-seated guilt like a thorn. The guilt that arose from having involved him in something he should have done alone.

Unlike the original work, because I knew how to trust people, I chose to be close to people, so it was an internal conflict that arose.

It is an over-interpretation that Eva chose to sacrifice because of her reliance, but it is impossible to deny that there is no connection at all.

“Your sister didn’t hit me?”

“….”

Ai couldn’t understand Wiz’s words about hurting him. All the wounds on the body now are left by the owner, so what are you talking about?

Wiz laughed.

“Right… It did… I guess…….”

What kind of bullsh*t did you say in front of a child who didn’t know anything? Even if he is the same person, he is a different person. He spun out nonsensical nonsense.

He helped himself and apologized.

“I was talking nonsense… sorry… ….”

“Are you going to hit me?”

The child’s eyes were serious. If she answered yes to this answer, she looked like she would run away right away.

“No.”

Wiz responded immediately without the slightest delay.

“No… i never… Decidedly… I don’t.”

He acknowledged it with a nod of her head as it was so gruesome that even a child could understand it right away.

“I see. Then you won’t hurt me, right?”

“Oh, so that’s…”

Wiz hesitated to answer.

“That’s…”

I don’t know. It’s bothering. Wiz decided to confess his true feelings about making a mistake. Because he is not the person I know.

It’s okay to rely on it again a little bit.

Very little. Like a drop of water from an icicle, it fell small and sharp, entrusting its weight to him.

“The scars I will inflict on you… Are not scars on the body… I mean… The scars on the heart…”

Although it was a small trust, he made people with guilt feel relieved as if they had thrown a huge burden on them. It became a breathing hole before it could not emit and decayed.

“I’m afraid that what I did will make you feel bad… That my words will cause you to shed tears… I’m so afraid…”

The child nodded his head.

“That’s right. It’s not a physical wound, it’s a mental wound. It’s difficult… But I get the idea.”

With a hand on his chin, the child squinted his eyes in anguish.

“Then it’s a mistake, but isn’t it a mistake after all?”

“…What?”

“What the f*ck. No, it’s a mess. It didn’t happen because noona wanted to do it.”

Wiz looked at the child as if possessed.

“I make mistakes often. That’s why I get scolded often.”

The child continued by stroking my stomach.

“But what’s wrong with that? How can a person know everything that’s going to happen! Everyone makes mistakes!”

He preached as if he was unfair.

“You have to be able to tolerate one or two mistakes. Of course, if it’s not the same mistake, you have to be able to get over it!”

Ai suddenly remembered various things that had happened to him, not Wiz’s story, and deeply empathized with them.

“If you do anything wrong to me, don’t worry! Unlike the previous owner, I’m very kind! If it’s just a mistake, just apologize and you’ll get over it right away!”

“…”

“Ah.. I said you were an asshole. This is my mistake.”

Hmm. He cleared his throat once and then continued.

“So. It’s a very simple story.”

Sometimes even adults learn from children.

The innocence they possess is in an area that is difficult to approach for those who are already endowed with various prejudices and knowledge as they grow.

Looking at the clouds in the sky, you can’t imagine their shape, and sometimes they give the language they spit a preconceived notion that they take for granted. To them, it was just one of the few expressions they had.

That innocence sometimes finds a very simple answer. It is a value that is hard to find in a twisted life.

“Looking at what you’re saying, I think you’ve already done something wrong to me… I’m big-headed! Forgive me! Oh, but do you know what big-eyed means?”

The child grinned and extended a finger to Wiz.

“Your sister should also be able to forgive her mistakes. Otherwise, it will be difficult every time.”

Wiz nodded her head.

She was still in doubt, but now she’s convinced.

“You… You’re right…”

“Yes? Who is that?”

“There is… A very mean person…”

Wiz laughed and added a new formula behind it.

“…Someone like an oasis in the desert.”

I quoted a metaphor I heard from Stella in the past.

A drop of water trickled down the side of her raised mouth.

It was a drop of water in which various emotional wastes were dissolved.

As a lake reflects his face, he penetrates his heart so transparently and quenches his thirst. A place of rest, a mirror, and a teacher who tells you a little bit of happiness.

As a small child, Wiz once again learned to trust someone.

A person reflected in the water.

The desert is beautiful because it has an oasis.

Like an innocent child in a group of desolate human beings.

Wiz looked back at the child.

In the faded city, there was an extravagant light here.

“…?”

What will it take to make this child survive in the city?

**

Survive. What did that mean?

Thinking back, it was really simple.

What could threaten his life?

The most terrifying disaster that exists on earth. That was him

The Holy Knights? Can you beat the demon lord candidate who has concentrated the power of several top-level demons? If you overdo it a little and hypnotize it, it will be over. He didn’t even have to kill him.

Elf? Was there any reason to be wary of a foolish race that invested all its talents in a waste of time that had nothing but supernatural powers and its own archery? Growing old was all they had. Appearance? Not to mention. If you’re going to die from being possessed by something like that, you’ve already died a long time ago.

A demon of death? Do you want to show your face again? Listening to Lillia’s words, the work about the demon of death had already been over. It was all a fuss, and it was useless prudence. It was like setting fire to a forest for fear of a hive without bees.

The problem was that the nerves that had become so sharp were still strong.

“Ha…”

Eva smiled happily. Enlightenment is always pleasant.

Eureka!

The ordeal to survive was very simple. She didn’t have to think hard about it.

The person who hates him the most in this land, is most wary of his power, and knows him the most is here.

“…Iva.”

“Why?”

“Don’t laugh.”

“Ha ha ha!”

The word “Don’t laugh” Made it even funnier, so Iba smiled vigorously. Her steps did not stop.

“Where are you going! Explain!”

“Nice place.”

“Please! I’m getting tired of fitting in with your damn whims! I’m your master!”

“On paper, yes.”

“Eva!”

“Don’t scream. These kids are rowdy.”

“Can’t you hear me now?”

“I can hear you.”

“But what’s wrong… Listen to me… Please…”

“Are you listening?”

Lilia shouted as she grabbed Eva’s hand by the chin.

“Don’t play with words.”

Her hand was shaking badly.

“Why are you doing this… I’m so scared… Why, why are you doing this. Why are you doing this without saying anything.”

After showing that he was trembling in fear, he skillfully switched to laughter. A cute smile for trust.

“Iva, I’m Lilia. Flower Witch Lilia. Your master. I believe everything you say? It’s okay. I don’t doubt it. If it’s a strange plan, I might… Uhm… Do the opposite! I don’t know, but ! But, please tell me first.”

Red marks began to appear on my wrists that I clenched too tightly.

“We…We weren’t this far from each other.”

Eva continued to move her feet while holding her by the wrist.

“Wow!”

“That’s why.”

Lilia was rather being dragged away.

“Lilia, since you are close to me, I have made this decision.”

From noble mtl dot com

Even when her legs faltered and she nearly dragged herself to the ground, Eva moved on without the slightest consideration. It’s like she’s trying to get her hands off her. She doesn’t have the confidence to let go herself, so she hopes the inertia of this world will do it for her.

“Lilia, this is my past.”

His steps were firm.

“It’s a different world from you. A different world with different characters, customs, culture, and magic.”

He heard an interesting story and continued talking innocently like a child explaining it to someone he doesn’t know.

“People I’ve seen before. I’ve seen them before. The ones I’ve cut their heads with. They look exactly like the ones I just saw.”

Such a story that is a bit difficult to understand because there is no interim supplementary explanation. This lack of delicacy was still childish.

“I know I’ll be here.”

Sureuk. In one hand, he held a spear made of flower petals and insects.

“Lilia, you trust me. I don’t trust me.”

As if a dam had burst, his tongue, which had been silent until earlier, had no momentum to stop.

“Lilia. I’m not sure I’ll be any better than this. I’m not sure I’ll trust you and not hate you.”

As if counting flowers, each time she took out her name one by one, her steps gained cheerfulness.

“Lilia. Lovely Lilia. Beautiful Lilia. Free Lillia.”

Every time her name crossed the tip of her tongue, he got an ecstatic sensation.

“Lilia, the pride of the world, you have carried too much burden. Even gold is just a useless burden when walking in the snow. Lilia, you have chosen the wrong person to love. There could have been many better people. I would.”

It’s not a shady light here.

“Lilia, didn’t you say you were tired of my whims?”

Congratulations.

With that one word, he ran out.

Survive.

The meaning of trials is simple.

He’s going to kill himself now.

It is the process of pruning the bizarre branches that will rot this world. Just like cutting off a big toe that died during mountain climbing in the snowy field, to cut off unnecessary things for the peace of this world and the other world.

From his own murderous intent.

From that grotesque murder spree.

From necrosis.

Survive.

**

When the sun went down, the child returned.

However, one thing was spilled.

It is none other than a book.

“Me! I’ll get it for you!”

Innis eagerly raised his hand and appealed to himself. But.

“You don’t know what to do.”

“Yes… I agree…”

I was stopped by two people aware of her shadyness.

There is only one conclusion.

All three go.

It’s going to be difficult if the owner finds out, but you can do it secretly. There are three wizards here!

What the three confidently stepped forward witnessed.

Inside the window that is covered with light and only shadows are visible.

It was a fat man wielding a belt at random.
