Rebirth Just Before The 10th Circle

“·················ogue.”

“It is not too late to shed tears at that time. stand up.”

At Merlin’s resolute voice, Sasha stood up, wiping her tears away.

“Where is the closest place to the anti-aircraft castle?”

“···Here you go.”

Sasha drew the map.

Merlin, who calculated the coordinates by eye mass.

“Go.”

He reached out and Sasha grabbed it.

“Me, us too!”

“I want to go with you!”

“Take me!”

Those who were heartbroken by her friend Sasha, but could not do anything about it.

They wanted to help Sasha somehow, so they stuck with Merlin.

“Twitch!”

Merlin clicked his tongue at the three lumps.

But they didn’t know how to feel, so they didn’t take it off.

he said it was annoying.

“Hold on tight.”

“Yeah!”

“Let’s go!”

“Start!”

Now, she put a look on Merlin that Merlin didn’t like her at the sight of them urging her to start.

Then she immediately used her teleport.

Tsupat!

The five figures disappeared from Kay’s room.

***

The place where Avalon and the party disappeared from the academy appeared in a gray sky with fluttering snow.

“Wow!”

“Billion?!”

“Float, fall!”

Those who are afraid to appear in the air and plummet to the ground.

Merlin snatched them up and slowly landed on the ground.

widely-

Merlin landed on the ground and frowned at the bitter cold and snow.

She then turned her head to Sasha when she saw the gigantic citadel in front of her and asked.

“Did she arrive right?”

Sasha did not answer Merlin’s question to her.

She just runs towards the shadow she presumes to be her castle.

She could have answered that well enough.

Merlin and her party hastily followed Sasha.

They wore only thin clothes in the harsh cold weather, but they forgot the cold as they ran frantically.

Moments later, Merlin and the others arrived at a wall covered in snow and ice.

“Who are you?”

Seeing them rushing, the gatekeeper, who raised the spear, saw a familiar woman and widened her eyes in amazement.

“uh? Sasha, Miss Sasha?!”

Sasha also recognized him and shouted.

“Gilbert. Open the gates!”

“Yeah? Ah yes!”

Gilbert, noticing how desperate Sasha was, hurriedly opened the door.

Into it Sasha ran and her Merlin quickly followed her party to avoid missing her.

Seeing Sasha running through the city inside the wall, many people looked at them in surprise.

They all recognized her Sasha and made a friendly face, but her insane Sasha just ran.

After running for such a long time, Sasha entered the tallest and largest castle in the city.

“uh? Sasha, Miss Sasha!”

The old butler, who was going to and from the mansion, recognized Sasha and shouted in surprise.

Sasha raised her voice as well.

“Oh, your father?!”

“Oh, come on, follow me.”

Seeing her gasping for her breath, her butler hurriedly stepped forward.

Following him, he arrived at the bedroom the Archduke had previously used.

creak-

The Grand Duke’s bedroom opened, and Sasha could smell the thick smell of death from within.

At the same time, her tears, which she had barely suppressed, filled up.

“Alas···.”

Sasha walked slowly towards her skinny, middle-aged man lying in her bed.

A narrow snowball and a slender ball.

dark blue lips.(Read more @ wuxiax.com)

He looked like he was already dead, but his chest was rising and falling slightly.

Seeing this, Sasha cried.

“I’m glad… I’m glad…”

Reassured that she was not yet late, Sasha slumped into her seat.

Avalon and the others were stunned by Sasha’s weakness the first time they saw it.

They looked sad.

but one person.

‘This···?’

Merlin’s eyes widened with suspicion as he looked at the corpse-like man lying on the bed.

Sasha (2)

Sasha (2)

new amount new amount-

Even if he was already dead, he looked like he would have died right away, and Archduke Redford was still alive.

But with every breath he exhaled, there was a foul odor from him.

It was the smell of a patient who had been bedridden for a long time.

Seeing her father, who could not even open her eyes, Sasha wept.

she asked her butler.

“Since when… Since when have you been here?”

“…from last week.”

“Did you suddenly feel so bad?”

“Yeah, until last month, you might feel a little uncomfortable, but you were able to go about your daily life…”

A shadow fell on the butler’s face as he informed Sasha of the Archduke’s situation.

An old man who has been loyal to the Grand Duke of Redford for many years.

To the butler who has been serving the present Archduke Redford since childhood, the Archduke Redford was like his master and child.

Therefore, the butler’s voice in answering was very dull.

“At first I thought I was just oversleeping. But… no matter how much time passes, he doesn’t wake up.”

“Sigh···.”

Sasha grabbed the Archduke’s hand and pressed their foreheads together.

She followed Sasha, but Avalon’s group, who had nothing to help, had no choice but to watch the scene quietly.

The butler, who had been waiting for a moment for her to share her warmth with her father, opened her mouth.

“Me… Miss? Who are these?”

Sasha, who was awakened at the call of the butler, rose from her seat.

“Academy friends. Mayton, please guide them so they can rest.”

“The lady…”

“I will be here.”

“Okay.”

Sasha knelt down next to her on the bed again, and her butler approached Avalon’s party.

“Follow me. I will show you where to rest.”

After a brief glance at Sasha, they realized that they had nothing to do here and followed the butler.

But one man did not move as if his feet were attached to the ground.

Kay called him.

“Top lord?”

Merlin waved his hand at Kay’s voice calling out to him.

“Go first. I have something to tell Sasha.”

“···Okay.”

Kay and his friends nodded without saying a word.

Merlin is left alone after they disappear with the butler.

He closed the door and walked over to Sasha.

“Sasha.”

At Merlin’s call, Sasha raised her head.

But she didn’t look back at Merlin.

Her gaze was directed toward the withered archduke’s face.

Sasha raises her hand and caressing her father’s face.

Long ago, she recalled her father’s strong face and she opened her mouth.

“As soon as I was born, my mother passed away due to labor. I was the only child between father and mother, and many in my family demanded that my father remarry.”

Looking at her father with her dim eyes, Sasha confided her own past.

“But my father, who loved her mother very much, refused to remarry despite much opposition, saying that he would not let me be raised in the hands of anyone else. I grew up receiving undeserved love from such a father.”

Merlin listened quietly to her Sasha’s monologue.

“The Redford estate has been in decline since her grandfather’s generation. Many of the nobles belonging to the Grand Duchy fell away, and all that was left was the barren estates within the walls… It was a childhood that lacked many things compared to other nobles, but I was the happiest at that time. Young Ji-min, who rejoices at me, who is a tomboy, and my father, who smiles even though he gives his soul. I remember all of that clearly.”

Sasha smiled slightly as she recalled her past.

Then her expression suddenly darkened.

“But eight years ago… my father suddenly became ill. At first, I thought it was just overwork. That is why his father had a lot of work. But … he fell more and more often, and then he realized something strange. That this is not just overwork.”

Eight years ago was long before Sasha joined her academy.

Sasha was only nine years old.

She was there from then.

Her Sasha’s life began to darken.

“Many therapists have been there since her father passed away. Yet, instead of getting better, her father’s condition was getting worse and worse. I can barely see her drying out day by day. Still, my father could not rest.”

“why? If he was sick, he should have rested.”

“The Prince of Redford has been called the Land of Opportunity, even though it is situated in a barren land. There were still many resources buried in that cold land, and it was from that foundation that Grand Duchy of Redford grew.”

“·················ogue.”

“His father tried to restore the glory of the past in his generation . . . but in vain. Talent was scarce, and the surrounding estates didn’t want Grand Duchess Redford to regain his former glory. They have been keeping our estates in check.”

Merlin listened to Sasha’s story with a serious face.

She had been with Sasha for over two years, but this was the first time she had heard of her.

She knew vaguely that she had something to do with the Grand Duchess from what she had done at the Academy.

But in the meantime, Sasha did not bring up her own story, nor did she deliberately listen to it around her.

She didn’t force Merlin to find out about Sasha either.

It was just like now, waiting for Sasha to tell me first.

She said, “As my father was getting weaker, I got married from the surrounding estates. I was only 10 years old at the time. But you know what’s funny?”

“What?”

“The person who got married to me was just a one-month-old baby. It was a nonsensical marriage talk, and it was a masterpiece that showed the insides clearly.”

Reminds me of that time, Sasha built her mockery.

“When my father passed away, I was the only one who inherited Redford’s blood. It’s a clear feat that he intends to get me and devour Grand Duchess Redford… Of course, my father was very angry and refused to discuss the wedding. But seeing my father getting weaker day by day, I couldn’t stand still.”

“So you have a sword?”

“Yes, that is correct.”

She looked down at her calluses in her own hands.

It was a rough hand that was not like a nobleman’s young girl.

“Those who ignored us even when my father was still alive . Fortunately, my talent was not lacking, and my skills improved quickly.”

Sasha was said to be her talent, but she knew Merlin.

She said that her skills are the result of her efforts beyond her talents.

Her hand was proving it.

“So when I was 14, my father sent me to the academy. I didn’t want to go, but my father forced me to go.”

“·················ogue.”

“When you were alive, you wanted me to see the world without any worries.”

The day before her departure for the academy, she forced 14-year-old Sasha that she wouldn’t go.

So Sasha sat next to her and said the Archduke.

‘Sasha, a child should be childlike. Go, make some friends, and have a little romance… Oh, the dating is cancelled. Anyway, 14 years old won’t come back twice in your life. Go to the island and have fun.’

Sasha couldn’t force herself anymore at her father’s kind words.

The next day, Sasha left for the island, listening to her father’s proclamation, ‘Dating is absolutely not allowed!’

It was not easy for her to adjust to her first foreign life, and Sasha did not try to adapt either.

She was only 4 years old.

When she was over 4 years old she had to go back to her cold hometown.

Whether her four years in her institution would develop a weak heart, she put restrictions on herself.
