I Possessed The Villain’s Childhood Friend - I Possessed The Villain’s Childhood Friend chapter 118

118 – Avatar – 1

“Please sit down first. It will probably be quite a long story.”

An unnatural chair was sitting where Dyt pointed her finger.

As if he knew from the beginning that I would come here.

I sat in the chair thinking about that fact.

A chair in the composition looking up at Dite from the front.

“Wow, that’s a bad taste in seat selection.”

“Is something wrong?”

“Nothing.”

Date glared at me with a sneer.

Yes. The one in front of me is the leader of Avatar, Diet Chernobog.

Slowly, I began to realize the current situation.

The battle with Avatar will surely end with this.

“Well, I called you because I wanted to talk, but to be honest, I have very little to talk about first.”

“… That means.”

“Yes. If you noticed, he would have a question for me, so I gave him a chance to ask. Of course, even if you were curious, you could have just turned off your mind and moved on….”

In the end, I came here alone like this.

“Ike. That’s what you want to ask, right?”

“… An alternate avatar, no. What are you planning?”

“Yes. That’s it.”

Dait covered his face with his palm and laughed.

Clearly, there was no lie in her smile.

As expected, it means that Diet was expecting this situation from the beginning.

“So? Since when did you notice, Ike.”

“When 5 Avatar officials, including Escruel, came to visit.”

“From the beginning, huh.”

Yes. I thought it was strange from the beginning.

Five people came to Ethiopia to destroy Avatar.

Me, Raina, Helen, Atal, and Charlotte.

Of these 5 people, the one who will be the most problematic to Avatar is definitely Charlotte.

I know the future of this world is definitely something to keep an eye on, but even taking that into account, my personal might is far from reaching them.

But even so, they send 5 officers to capture only Charlotte?

Without even pretending to stop the remaining four from getting out of there?

If that’s the case, wouldn’t it be better for all the Avatar executives to wait here together?

Then we’ll never win.

It doesn’t matter that we already knew that we were coming to Ethiopia today.

Although I knew that, it was more important that I made the worst of the worst moves.

“But up to that point, it must have been just a suspicion. Something is strange. It turns out completely different from what I thought, same doubt.”

It was as Diet said.

At that time, did you put Charlotte in such a danger?

But.

“… It was the fight with Cron Illusin that led to some hypotheses. It makes no sense that a man of that level could not properly grasp the life or death of his opponent. No, it should be considered strange that I did not die in the first place.”

In other words, from the beginning he intended to send me into this cave.

Yes.

As long as Charlotte is already gone, it is impossible for us to defeat Avatar’s executives by ourselves.

Do you have an edge with the numbers?

That doesn’t make any sense.

From the beginning, the plan we made when we came to Ethiopia was to defeat each other.

And the key to that plan was Charlotte.

But after all, now I am here.

In the literal sense, our fight was a play they created.

“Of course, in the last fight, I was driven to the brink of death.”

“Well, it must have been his own rebellion. He made me move as he pleases every time, so I can forgive him for that much at the end.”

Date continued as if nothing really happened.

“In the end, that’s not what matters. The important thing is that the four of you came here alone. That’s the whole story.”

“In other words. From the beginning, Avatar was not aimed at destroying the empire.”

“Well, to be precise, ‘this time’ Avatar became like that because of me.”

I couldn’t understand.

No, in a way, it was a natural story.

Even in the original work, Avatar was only portrayed as an evil group trying to destroy the empire.

I don’t know why they’re moving, or what purpose they’re trying to bring down the empire. I didn’t even want to know.

But since I came this far, I couldn’t move on with an attitude that I didn’t care.

“What the hell are you planning?”

And the diet.

“I want to fight you guys. That’s all.”

He replied with a ferocious smile.

★

-Resent Astraia.

-Destroy Astraia.

-Curse Astraia.

– Trampling on Astraia.

– Destroy Astraia.

-We are the future. We are justice. We are the Empire. We are the sun.

-Descendants of Macia, drop Astraia from the sky, who destroyed us.

-This is not a curse.

-This is the cause you must do.

-This is your karma.

-This is a new myth you will create.

-You were born for this.

-We were born for this.

-Makia must not end. Must last forever.

-Destroy the hateful Astraia and resurrect the true empire.

-Make an eternal myth.

-Found the sun that will never set.

-That must be the only reason for our existence.

“Avatar is a group of descendants of the imperial family of the Machia Empire.”

Makia.

An empire that was once the conqueror of the continent, said to have been destroyed by the Astraea Empire.

It was clearly written that way in the history books.

And that Avatar was their descendant.

“Someone might laugh at you. If it was the imperial family of the previous empire, they would be able to live in Astraia with sufficient treatment even if they sacrificed a few, but they kicked it themselves.”

Dite burst out laughing, as if he was dumbfounded.

“Hey, Ike. Do you know the characteristics of the descendants of Astraia?”

“The characteristic of the imperial family is golden hair and red eyes….”

“It’s not about appearance, it’s about personality.”

Listening to Dite’s words, I thought of Leon’s personality.

The first thing that comes to mind is, of course, genius.

And what follows from there.

“Are you the type to act as rationally as possible in any situation?”

“Well, you can say that. However, the imperial family of Machia is completely opposite to that of Astraia.”

“If it’s the exact opposite….”

“Only feelings. Emotions come first. Did you just say Even if he sacrificed just a few members of the imperial family, he would have been treated well in Astraia. However, no one accepted that from the Machia imperial family.”

That is. It was born from the combination of the feelings of not wanting to sacrifice anyone to Astraia and the resentment of not being able to forgive Astraia for destroying Makia.

“That’s what Avatar is.”

Dite sighed quietly.

“But the goal isn’t to destroy the empire called Avatar….”

“You would have said that ‘this time’ Avatar was like that because of me? The purpose of Avatar was always the destruction of Astraia. That won’t change no matter what.”

“Then why this time….”

“Before that, let’s talk about something else for a moment.”

As I said that, Diet threw something at me.

“This?”

That was a magic stone.

“Ike. Do you guys know about the origins of the Witchbeast?”

“… I only know about an unknown creature that wields magical powers that suddenly appeared on the continent a few hundred years ago.”

“I guess so. No matter how much you came from the future, there’s no way you could know that it was our Avatar who created the Witchbeast.”

“Yes?”

“What are you so surprised about?”

Even in the original work, the demonic setting was used only once.

The time to explain the existence of ‘Majin’, the executives of Avatar, was over.

But that demon beast was a creature created in Avatar?

“Avatar, an organization, succeeded in transplanting the demon’s blood and magic passage to humans, which failed in Astraia. Surely there must be a reason for this?”

“That, I guess. So why are you telling me this story now?”

“Makia means that it was a magical empire. Makia’s magic is so good that even after it’s collapsed, it can create demons.”

Date answered my question simply and continued.

“Already close to 1000 years have passed. Isn’t it a bit strange that even though we are descendants of the Machia Empire, we still hate Astraia?”

And that was definitely a highly persuasive story.

“The Crown Prince of the Machia Empire, who served as the head of the first Avatar. He could never give up the Macian Empire. However, they thought that if they could not rebuild Machia in their own generation and pass it on to the next generation, this hatred would one day dull and fade.”

“That is natural, isn’t it?”

No matter how descendant they are, there is a limit to brainwashing if you haven’t experienced it yourself.

Especially if it has been going on for a long time of 1000 years.

“Yes. That’s normal. But the prince wouldn’t accept that. It was truly a mess created by tenacity. So, the prince and Avatar created another magic and used it on their children. Magic to plant one’s resentment, hatred, and all negative emotions related to Astraia.”

“Does that mean that magic has continued to this day?”

“Yes. Thanks to that, the more generations, the more Avatar came to curse Astraia. Especially if you are a direct descendant of the Crown Prince.”

“And….”

“That is me. The only remaining member of Avatar, a direct descendant of the Crown Prince of the Machia Empire. That is the man called Diet Chernobog.”

I finally understood.

Why was Dait called ‘Your Highness’ by the officers of Avatar in the original work?

Why did he unilaterally deny the Astraea Empire and try to destroy it?

“But, then, why would I….”

“The cursed words resounding in my head. The moment I thought about anything else, the pain that resonated as if my head would break. I don’t know, the sight of the Machia Empire burning. Do you know the feeling of repeating those things every day, Ike?”

“… I do not know.”

“Yes. There’s no way you could know And it was you who took away the pain, Ike.”

“That, what.”

“The feeling of wanting to fight you, the desire to defeat you put this curse to rest. That’s why I called you here, that’s all.”

Date slowly rose from the throne.

“You must have noticed already? No matter what happens, you and I are destined to fight in the end.”

And then he pulled out a jet-black sword that made him feel reluctant and aimed it at me.

“From the moment you refused to become an avatar, this was a natural ending. So draw your sword, Ike.”
