34. Hero Luna’s Awakening (7)
When the middle finger went up, the members rushed at me like fire moths.
In one hand, holding a dagger with a blooming magic.
Fortunately, there were no high-level followers.
Perhaps, he thought that the Demon Lord alone would be fine.
“First of all, I will have to kill all of them from the beginning.”
squeak-
I slowly decapitated the believers.
One, two, three.
Those guys were afraid of death, and even though their necks were cut off, they approached with fearless daggers.
They were like dolls who had forgotten their fears.
“… No, it might be a doll.”
“That is correct. Goddess dog. They are my dolls. A very coveted doll that moves the way I want it to.”
Dolls who have lost their free will and move freely.
I cut off all of their heads, all expressionless.
On the floor, along with the bodies of Luna’s family, the corpses of the followers formed a mountain.
It was a miserable situation.
Grid saw the tragedy and said with a smile.
“If you want it, have it. If you want to throw it away, throw it away. It’s a very simple rule. They must have felt good being controlled by me, the Demon Lord. Don’t you want to move like that too?”
“… dog sound. More than that, Luna’s family. Why did they kill them?”
There would be no reason to kill them all like this.
The blood of the corpses had not yet hardened, and it was not long after they were killed.
If the goal was to kill Luna, it was better to let her family live.
However, Demon King Greed did not.
“Why the hell did you kill innocent people?”
“It’s just mind-blowing. While waiting for the hero, shouldn’t I have fun too, Goddess Dog?”
“… ”
“Because my desire is ‘eternal life’. Not a boring life. I want to be a person who always enjoys living. That’s why I killed those people.”
Grid was smiling with an expression devoid of any tension.
An arrogant and unlucky face.
I wanted to put my fist in that face right now.
The demon lords were the ones who had the urge to kill them all.
Chaengrang-
“Uh? Goddess dog. Why did you put down your sword?
“… Don’t treat me right.”
space.
I put my hand there.
Perhaps the branch was over here.
‘found.’
A magic wand that is made from the branches of the world tree, and there are only three in this world.
she made it herself
She took out her belongings, which she had inherited from her teacher, Aina.
I slammed a filthy, huge cane a little taller than my head into the floor.
thud-
then shouted
“Go away, space.”
and.
“Be reborn.”
Achromatic mana leaked out from the floor and wrapped around the space.
A floor where bridges shake and earthquakes occur.
The trembling gradually subsided, and when I closed and opened my eyes, a space of nothingness spread out before my eyes.
It was literally nothing.
“Hmm, the goddess dog. What is this space?”
“Innocence. Until one of them dies, this prison will not be lifted.”
A prison with nothing.
If he wants to escape, he has to kill me.
To escape, I have to kill him.
Magic that has no back.
And, it was a good magic to sacrifice.
“… Obviously, she must have felt the same way.”
Was it pitiful for me to sacrifice in this way?
Minerva handed me the last present.
In the end, she was not honest.
[…] Just die, Lee Jun-woo. Minerva can live on her own. Stupid Lee Jun-woo. Still, I’ll give you a present. See you again.]
[One. He rises to the level of an archmage and fights the grid.]
[2. obey him.]
Even if I had the knowledge of an Archmage, there was only one reason I couldn’t reach that level.
because of the lack of power.
because of that one
However, given Minerva’s gift, it is different now.
I pierced the tip of the wand into my heart.
Fuuk-
“… Goddess dog. Putting a wand in your heart… Do you have no intention of living here? ?”
Even if I die, I will go with you.
A staff is inserted into the heart, and magical power is supplied to the whole body.
I am not dead and my heart is still beating.
It was thanks to Minerva’s gift.
“… your guy He was a pretty good guy. Then, I’ll fight you equally. Goddess dog. Seeing this is a blessing.”
Smul-
Behind Grid’s back came a huge red mouth that could devour me in one bite.
He licked his tongue greedily and licked his lips looking at me.

Just looking at it makes me feel pretty bad.
Watching that, I spread magic in both hands.
‘The next day, please. Luna.’
Already, this story is out of my hands.
The next page must be turned by you.

why…
Did this happen to me? ?
“Oh, no… this is a dream… That’s right… ?”
Someone tell me it’s a dream
this can’t be real
uh?
please.
please…
“Tell me it’s a dream… ”
The reality was dreadful.
When Luna entered the house, the corpses of her family were spread out in front of her.
None of the corpses were normal, and they were dead with their eyes open for how unfair it was.
Luna walked on the blood-splattered floor.
The uncle was nowhere to be seen.
“Ahhh… this, this… no… ”
– What do you mean, hero?
“It is not real… Boo, obviously… I fell asleep on the train, had a nightmare… ”
– It’s real. Warrior. This is your ‘up’. accept it
What is a warrior, what is karma… ?
The hallucination spoke in a clearer voice.
Screams for ‘help’ were also heard, but Luna had no time to care because of the disaster that had occurred.
The voice continued to speak to Luna.
-Warrior. Do you think this is a dream?
“It must be a dream… It can’t be real… ”
-Don’t speak weakly, warrior. This is ‘reality’. And, you have to take responsibility.
“Chae, responsibility… Uh, how do you lose… ? Yes, you can save it… ?”
before I lose my mind.
Luna reached out towards the last embers of hope.
– Even if you fall, I’ll get you up again. If you want to save them. pull me out
“Sa, I can save you… there is… ? Go, family… ?”
The thick fog in my head lifts and disappears.
A sword shining in golden light covered my eyes.
– Come on, pick me up.
“… ”
okay…
Pooh, I’ll pick it up…
Luna, driven to the edge of the cliff, held out her hand with a sword as if holding on to the last lifeline.
At that moment, the space was distorted, and a person popped out of the air.
“Ah, uncle-!! Sah, you were alive-!!”
Before Luna finished speaking, Lee Jun-woo’s body fell forward.
tuk-
“Uh, huh…?”
Luna supported the fallen man’s body.
Luna’s hands, which supported the uncle, were wet with blood.
Lee Jun-woo’s condition was not good.
To the point where it’s okay to die right now.
“ah… Ah, uncle… ?”
“It’s cool, Luna… ”
“Ahhh… No… Don’t leave me alone… Ah, uncle… Now, listen carefully… I will train hard… please… please don’t die… ”
tuk tuk-
please don’t die…
Please don’t leave me alone…
Luna burst into tears and blocked Lee Jun-woo’s heart with her hand.
Even so, the blood flowed without stopping.
His body grew colder.
Lee Jun-woo, who had a sense of death, stroked Luna’s hair warmly.
“… Luna. Big-“
“No, don’t say-! Sa, the state is-“
“… Luna, listen carefully. last… I mean… ”
“… ”
Be sure to do this for the last time… ?
Obviously, I thought today was going to be a good day…
Why did it become such a painful day?
Luna’s tears rolled down her face.
Feeling Lee Jun-woo’s warm touch as the last.
listened to his advice.
“… Even if I open my eyes again. Don’t be discouraged… and.”
It’ll be hard though.
would be painful
Take the ‘up’ on your back.
you can
Leaving only those words, Junwoo slowly closed his eyes.
As if stamping the fact that he had disappeared, the voice was heard again.
– Pull it out, warrior. The messenger of the goddess is dead. so pull it out
“… ”
Luna stretched out her hand without saying a word.
At this point, it didn’t matter what happened.
Even hope that things will get better is gone.
I pulled out the sword that was hidden in the mist.
A golden light came out, but Luna’s eyes were empty.
-Congratulations, warrior. You’ve chosen to take up your karma.
save people
To make a happy world.
You’ve been tasked with keeping the peace.
– I’ll send it back. Even if you fall, I’ll get you up again. My name is Holy Sword ‘Timeless’. Good luck in the future.
With a clearer scream.
The Holy Sword Timeless let out a creepy laugh.
and.
when you close your eyes and open them
“Oh, it’s a nightmare… !! uh, uh… ? here is? Ah, uncle… ? Sah, I’m alive… ?!”
Luna was in the train.
***
“Ah, uncle-!! Aww-!!”
“… Luna, go away. noisy.”
“Uhhhh- Ah, Mister- Huh, I thought he was dead. ”
… Did you really drink the holy water of Estiya?
why is he doing this
Luna was holding my waist and she was crying.
He looked quite anxious, and he was genuinely frightened.
what the hell is going on
I couldn’t understand.
“Lu, Luna… ! Rain, get out… ! Oh, you’re in trouble… !”
“Ugh, hare… me, me huh… I’m so scared… No, it’s just that it’s over… ”
“I, I… ! Oh, don’t try to hug me… ! Ah, uncle… Please take him away… ”
Did Luna have a nightmare?
The reaction is too strong for that.
Luna’s words were vivid as if they were talking about something that had actually happened.
“… Luna, don’t get your runny nose on your clothes. It’s messy.”
“Huh- don’t do it, huh… How can I not cry – my whole family is dead… Ugh, ah, you’re dead too… ”
“… Wait, I’m dead?”
“Yeah, ah, uncle Ji, went into the house… This is a strange person… I fought… ”
“Speak slowly, Luna.”
“Ugh, you… ”
Luna cried and explained the situation.
The whole family was massacred, I shut the door and shouted to run away, and in the end I died with a hole in my heart.
And, even pulling out a strange sword.
As a result of combining the information, there was only one conclusion.
‘Did Luna come from the future to the past… ‘
If Luna’s words are true, then that’s probably the correct answer.
And in that future, I die, and Luna remembers that.
In my opinion, that ability would be more of a curse than a blessing.
I have to remember people’s deaths and continue to experience situations that people don’t remember.
That’s probably what a hero’s ‘work’ is.
The karma of a hero who has to sacrifice for others and suffer instead.
The continuation of the ‘bridle’ had begun.
At that moment, as if my thoughts were correct, Minerva’s problem arrived.
[Luna, the hero who once experienced Lee Jun-woo’s death and returned. Are you going to read the book written from Luna’s point of view, or not?]
[One. see.]
[2. I don’t see it.]
“Is this the reason there were more pages after I died… ”
time reversal.
Luna’s family died, and I went back to the timeline where I died.
Time backwards, like winding a clockwork backwards.
then…
“Now is not the time to be like this.”
“… Ah, you believe Luna’s lie… ?”
“So. To believe that, you were an insect.”
It’s not a lie.
Luna is talking about what actually happened.
I arrived at the station and told Hare and Saten.
“Both of you wait for Estiya here, Luna and I will be gone for a while.”
“Uh, where… ?”
“Luna’s house.”
The body isn’t old.
So, if you move quickly now.
if you arrive quickly.
I didn’t even know if I could save Luna’s family.
“Luna, I will save your family.”
“Yes, uncle… ”
Holding Luna’s determined hand, we ran towards the house.
When we first fought, we probably died at the same time…
‘This time it’s different.’
My battle with the Demon King must have been recorded by Minerva.
It will give me the answer through the question.
so.
Now I can turn the pages that have been burned by black fire to the side.
The written future does not lie.
