NOVEL NEXT Chapter 117
Chapter 117 – Can you really see this lady?
I was scolded.
A lot.
But honestly, even while I was being scolded, I didn’t understand why I was being scolded.
No, who knew I would get caught up in something like that after I went out to get some fresh air?
“The matter hasn’t been finished yet.”
“Oh, that’s right.”
Come to think of it, I worked hard to get rid of the erosion on Park Se-rin’s body, but that’s all.
There must still be 422 erosive bodies somewhere, and the people behind them will be hiding in the Black Forest.
Others left the health room to inform Garlowin about [Erosion].
[Hello?]
Because of that, only me, Celie, and Celestia were left in the health room.
Shelly runs up to her and asks, her eyes twinkling.
“Brother. Can you really see this lady?”
“Uh… I can see it.”
[Aren’t you a lady?]
Sally tilts her head, as if she doesn’t understand.
“But how does it look?”
[Actually, I don’t know too! Could it be that ‘Star’s Blessing’ has gone beyond a certain level?]
Huh? So you’re saying you can see Stia too?
Are you okay?
Then I suddenly got a question and asked Celestia.
“Then how can I see Sally?”
Then, Celestia said in an attitude as if she was asking something obvious.
[That’s because I’m a chimera.]
“… Yes?”
[Haa….]
Celestia sighed in frustration and pointed at herself with her finger.
[B. She is a great saint blessed by the stars.]
“Yes.”
[But I’m dead.]
“… It was.”
She turned her finger away from herself and pointed at Sally this time.
[Hey. It’s a chimera.]
“… Yes?”
Chimera? The one she came in with Charon?
[Since Seli was made by ripping off my star’s blessing and injecting it, I can’t help but see myself, the thought remaining in the blessing.]
“… ….”
Come to think of it, letricia siblings… Was she Seria and Butterfly now?
Anyway, there was something strange going around with them.
The reason why she didn’t invade the academy and why she betrayed Charon and walked a different path were all due to Sally’s influence.
Then, why did Sally suddenly pop up after she didn’t appear in [Oeyoung]?
If it was a character that originally appeared in [Akanak Castle], Why doesn’t Sally appear? Even with the description of her, she should have been mentioned in [Oeyeongdoe].
What it didn’t mean was that it was a completely new character that didn’t even exist in [Akanak Castle].
I wondered if all of this had something to do with Celestia smiling right in front of her eyes.
“This may be an rude question.”
[Huh?]
“How did you die?”
[Um… Do you remember that I am the saint of ‘Prophecy’?]
“Yes.”
I knew that Celestia was a saint of ‘prophecy’ because it was occasionally mentioned in [Oeyeongdeo].
[The power of the saintess of ‘prophecy’ is literally observing what will happen in the future and conveying the prophecy…. However, the future that the saintess of ‘Prophecy’ sees is not one.]
“… What do you mean not one thing?”
[Depending on when, where, and what actions you take, you will continue to diverge and create a different future.]
How should I describe Celestia? He muttered and touched her chin.
[If I hadn’t eaten that food at that restaurant, hadn’t stayed at that inn, hadn’t died on that battlefield.]
“…… ?”
[Each of those decisions has an impact on changing the future, just like the branch of a tree splits into countless branches.]
“… Does that mean you couldn’t have died there?”
[Of course. There’s no way I could just die to those kids, right? He died.]
For the best future-.
Celestia muttered so quietly and smiled.
[Of course, my death there was only the first step towards a ‘best future’.]
“Then, are you on your way to the best future so far?”
[Yes. Till now.]
Not yet. I think it was the first time the word yet had sounded so heavy.
What she said was tantamount to saying that if not only me but even one person walked in the wrong direction, the ‘best future’ might not be possible.
She opened her mouth with a friendly smile, perhaps reading the worry on my face.
[Don’t worry too much, you guys are doing well.]
I wonder if she is relieved by her words because she is a saint. Is it because she is the one who made the ‘prophecy’?
“Auntie, I finally have a friend to talk to.”
[Not a lady! And you too!”
“Yes? Why am I your friend?”
[…] ….]
A pouting Celestia hides and disappears, screaming that Celeste was joking, and she panics.
What a great saintess who gets mad at a child’s prank and hides….
Suddenly, the future started to become uneasy again.
*
Once again, the work of [Erosion] Is not finished.
Rather, this is just the beginning.
The fact that me, Park Se-rin, and Rukia were the targets of the corroding bodies seemed to remain the same, but….
Fortunately or unfortunately, the people behind [Erosion] Weren’t stupid either, so they didn’t push into Star City.
However, it is an undeniable fact that the number of victims is increasing in real time. It is impossible to stay still like this.
So, Galowen called the three who were still recuperating in Star City.
“I hate it.”
Those were Charwen’s words.
“You don’t seem to remember, but I haven’t gotten well yet, have I? But, do you want to go there again?”
And Irkiel and Albert, who were next to me, raised their hands in turn and expressed their intention of refusal.
“I don’t like it either. Because I think you’ve already suffered enough to suffer.”
“I’m sorry, but I refuse. I’m still not in good shape to hold a sword.”
“I want to go!”
Four eyes widened at the sudden cheerful voice.
Then, Charwen, who confirmed the owner of the voice, raised her forehead and spoke to Garlowin.
“… Why is Sally here… ?”
And at that, Garlowin smiled and asked Sally in a trembling voice as if embarrassed.
“…… When did you come in?”
“I wonder if you didn’t know….”
She let out a sigh, and Charwen stepped over to Celie and got down on one knee with her at her eye level.
“Sally… It’s a very dangerous place, it’s not a place you can go….”
“Is it dangerous even if Seria and Nabi go together?”
“Ummm… Maybe?”
Charwen was honestly not sure about that question.
She was someone who had experience fighting Seria and Nabi herself.
It was the same with Irkiel and Garlowin.
Clearly, those two are strong. Maybe even in the Black Forest there would be no problem.
But this enemy is a little different.
Because there is [Erosion].
‘I don’t know if their magic immunity is effective against [Erosion]….’
If the two of them become corrosive bodies, powerful enemies that the archmages will find difficult to control will be born.
*
“Wow, it looks like it’s f*cked up.”
I haven’t been able to get out of bed for two hours.
My whole body is tight as if it were muscle pain, and I can feel the pain just by breathing and my chest going up and down.
“Yes… There can be no price for such power…….”

[It is weakly bound with Kania.]
A newly blossomed EX-class attribute [Copy] In the battle with Park Se-rin who was [Erosion].
Since there are risks that need to be dealt with after use like now, I wondered if it was an EX-grade characteristic, but….
“It deserved to be an EX rank.”
In the battle with Park Se-rin, I copied the characteristics of 5 people.
An attribute that allows you to temporarily borrow an attribute that you do not have and use it freely.
It’s not even just that.
When I copied Rukia, I used Rukia’s ability, [Illusion], And when I copied Dina, I even copied her black magic.
The ability to copy magic.
And most importantly.
‘I even copied Astra.’
The Holy Sword of the Hero, Astra.
Although it didn’t even have a proper shape, it was just a light in the shape of a sword….
It was definitely Astra.
Being able to copy even the power of a hero, this is clearly an ability that violates the rules of the world.
It was a level of strength that felt like it was lacking even at the rank of EX.
‘With this kind of power, it’s only natural that your body will look like this after using it….’
Rather, it would have felt strange if there had been no recoil.
Moreover, you can use multiple powers at the same time….
‘I’ll have to use it carefully next time.’
I’m not sure as I’ve only used it once, but if it recoils while fighting and makes it difficult to move, it’s the end.
Unless it’s a really emergency situation, don’t use it, and even if you do, use only one ability at a time to minimize the burden.
“Ugh….”
I moved my body slightly, but my muscles tightened and I let out a moan.
But on the contrary, I couldn’t stop the corners of my mouth going up.
Apart from being sick right now, it’s true that I’ve acquired a fraudulent skill.
