Dead.

The apostle who stayed with me and who remembered me died.

That’s also the way to end one’s own life.

“Relax, Junwoo. I’ll get you right away… “

Minerva shed tears down the cliff where Lee Jun-woo fell.

She then turned her head in the direction of the scream that had just rang out.

There is a thief with a shocked face.

Hare stood there motionless.

“You’re late, rogue. Your uncle has already left.”

“Ah, mister… why… “

“I couldn’t roll. I was so hurt that I was shaved off.”

“Oh no… Uncle why… Ooh, I’m leaving us… ? Yes, you pushed and killed me… “

Hare shed tears and pulled her dagger from her bosom.

Minerva looked at her and thought to herself.

‘… My eyes are completely gone. To think that a thief like that would have to defeat the demon lord in a worse state than now.’

As expected, I’m glad I didn’t show it to Junwoo.

“Kill… i will kill… That and the uncle… Everything, I will get it back… “

Minerva shuddered all over her body and cried out to block the approaching Hare.

“Wait a minute, rogue. I am the goddess who helped Junwoo-“

“That’s a lie… What I’ve seen… ? Yes, you pushed him with your hand… You killed… “

“… It’s a big deal.”

Hare showed no signs of stopping her.

And, even if she knew the truth, she had no intention of stopping.

‘All… It’s all her fault… I don’t know who it is, but I didn’t stop the old man… It’s the same as killing the old man… “

It’s absolutely not my fault.

“The man I love never died through my fault… “

Because her spirit did her best to keep Hare from going mad, and turned her arrows toward her husband.

Hare, who was dominated by unconsciousness, could not stop her actions.

She would have done it without the help of others.

“Lord, die… !!”

“Stop hare.”

Tak-

Luna stopped by grabbing her hare’s arm.

“That person is a goddess.”

“That’s a lie… how do you know that… ? You, you didn’t side with that woman… ?”

“… What did you just say, you?”

Nonsense.

Luna held back her anger as much as she could and put her hand on her hare’s shoulder.

With eyes bloodshot from holding back her tears, Luna glared at Hare.

“I know only you liked him… ? I know you’re the only one in shock… ? Even though I’m a hero, I’m also a human… ?”

Don’t speak carelessly.

Because I’m patient too.

Luna threw her hare to the floor, loosening her grip on her shoulder.

Hare lay on her floor and covered her face, bursting into tears.

I was crying so much that it was difficult to breathe.

“… Crying there I will come after talking with the goddess.”

The holy sword said that the key to solving this situation lies with the goddess.

Luna hid her accumulated emotions in her heart as she walked towards Minerva.

She had many things to say to the goddess.

“… Why did you let him die?”

“I have no reason to tell you who don’t know why. It is very intertwined.”

“… “

Luna placed her hand on her heart and pulled out a brightly shining holy sword.

“… They said that the holy sword could bring the old man back to life. Is that true?”

Luna witnessed the man fall.

She feels like her heart is falling into hell, and she tried to jump to save her uncle from falling off the cliff.

At that moment, her holy sword blocked Luna’s actions.

-It’s okay, warrior. If you try, you can save that man. Turn back time by repeating endless deaths.

However.

Because it was distinctly different from the voice of the holy sword he used to talk to himself.

Luna couldn’t jump to her death.

‘… Why couldn’t I die? Time goes by… Is that the only thing you have in mind about the old man?

And then, she loathed herself for not jumping in.

Minerva interrupted Luna’s thoughts and said.

“No, Junwoo can’t be saved no matter what you do.”

“Then what did the holy sword say? Are you saying the Holy Sword lied to me?”

“I would have told you through Junwoo. Don’t trust the holy sword so much.”

“Why, why… ?”

“The Holy Sword is a party of warriors who failed to defeat the demon lord.”

Minerva speaks calmly.

However, upon hearing Minerva’s words, Luna’s moment stopped her thinking.

‘The holy sword is a warrior party… ? Uh, what does that mean… Then, if we fail to subdue the demon lord, we will become holy swords… ?’

For a moment, Luna felt a chill.

Minerva seemed to have something more to say to her, but kept her mouth shut as she looked down the cliff.

“Let’s talk about that later, Junwoo’s poetry… lift the body I don’t have time. We have to go back quickly.”

“… “

At Minerva’s words, Luna nodded her head once.

She said her head wasn’t working properly and negative emotions were overflowing inside her.

‘It’s all my fault. I should have stopped Mr. I shouldn’t have left him alone… “

It’s all my fault.

It’s all my fault.

What if the hero can’t even protect the important people around him?

“I’m just as stupid as you said… “

Luna let out her negative words and headed down the cliff.

From the outside, the body of the fallen man was not very damaged.

More than that, the problem is that blood is flowing from the most important heart.

He was already not breathing.

“Mr. Why did you suddenly leave us… ? I’ll listen to you now, so you can’t come back… ?”

“… “

There was no answer.

Only the sound of Luna’s wailing can be heard from the bottom of the cliff.

The body, which remained weakly warm, did not respond.

***

After hugging the old man and crying for a long time, Luna carefully lifted his body and handed it to Minerva.

“… Thank you, warrior. I will send my apostle well. And, I’ll tell you later… Until then, please take care of your heart.”

The goddess Minerva left her seat with only her words.

The remaining Luna and Hare felt an unbearable emptiness.

“Really, the old man is dead… ? Ha ha ha… I can’t believe it… There’s no way my uncle died… ?”

“I saw, you are dead.”

“… It’s a lie. There’s no way the world’s strongest man died.”

So, as Hare struggled with her last, she assumed it was a lie.

“When we get home, the uncle will be welcoming us… Not to fall off a cliff, but to get home quickly-“

“Don’t talk nonsense-!!”

And Luna couldn’t stand to watch her struggling like that.

Towards Hare, who was muttering something to herself, Luna spoke strongly.

“The man is dead-!! I saw-! He even saw it fall and-! I’ve seen them put needles through their hearts when they die-! But what kind of uncle is saying he’s alive-!! Stop talking nonsense!”

Look at the reality-!!

Hare opened her eyes wide at Luna’s bitter cry.

“… Why? Then why did the uncle die… ? Because that teacher was wrong… ? Otherwise, we’re doing it wrong… ?”

“Please stop.”

“Because someone made a mistake… Not dead… ? Uncle… Why did you die… ?”

“… “

Luna understood Hare’s feelings.

She understood the feeling of blaming someone.

However, the weight of Luna, who was named her warrior, was heavier than Hare.

“… I’ll go back first Let’s talk at home.”

It’s my fault.

It’s all my fault.

Gripping those thoughts inside, Luna left Hare and walked towards her house.

“We are there, why did you leave, mister… It’s because I’m wrong… ?”

Since I thought I was going to a house without an uncle, my steps were heavier than usual.

***

I killed myself.

I didn’t want to live, because there was no point in living any longer.

“… “

By the way.

Why did I not want to live?

Why did I think there was no point in living any longer?

I couldn’t find a clear answer to that idea.

‘… Why did I do that?’

I don’t remember at all.

I think I heard something called happiness.

Why did he say that to me?

‘My head hurts. It’s dark.’

I don’t know.

I felt a headache and turned my head to look around.

It was dark everywhere and I tried to move my body to move.

‘… It doesn’t move.’

What is this?

What are you doing here?

Why am I here?

The moment I think about such questions and think about what I can do.

Kiki-

A light came from the sky with the sound of something opening.

At the same time, a woman’s voice mixed with water was heard.

‘This voice… I think the person who said happiness or something back then… ‘

Your name is… I don’t know.

First of all, I decided to focus on listening to her voice.

-I’m sorry for putting you in such a small space, Junwoo.

Junwoo.

That’s my name.

-In order to preserve your soul that exists in this world, there was only one way to record you like this… I hope you understand…

A record?

Why is this woman crying and saying this to me?

-It won’t be bad for Aina to choose the life of an apostle for your future…

Sleep-

A woman’s voice continued as the sound of turning paper was heard.

-Until the warrior party grants me a wish. Please rest there for a while. I’ll get you out of there soon and send you back to your original world…

After she finished her words, water came down from the sky for a moment.

I don’t understand what that woman is talking about.

Only the feeling that he was worried and thinking about me was conveyed to me.

-So… Don’t worry about the hero’s party and just relax… It will be a tough road… They’re going to work hard for you, okay? I’m using too much power, so I’ll leave…

End with that small voice.

Bang-

With the sound, my surroundings went dark again.

‘… ‘

Something made me feel like I had forgotten something important.
