Episode 119
The four men stood in front of a pile of rocks at the entrance to the underground chamber.
“I guess I’ll have to cut it to get out.”
It was the moment when Aer reached for the greatsword.
“Just a moment.”
Cordelia stopped him. She spoke to Aer, who was looking at her with a puzzled look.
“Don’t go back.”
“yes?!”
“uh?!”
Eileen, who was listening from the side and was also surprised, turned her eyes to Cordelia. Cordelia, who had surprised everyone, continued speaking with an expression that showed no signs of agitation.
“You said that living as a hero is painful. Just run away like this.”
Aer’s hand on the hilt of his sword suddenly fell at the unexpected words that were thrown out quietly.
“but.”
“We are the only three people who saw the duel with Ajar. You just have to tell them that the hero sacrificed himself in the final battle.”
Aer’s mouth opened and then closed again, as if he couldn’t find the words to say. He was hesitating. He was worried whether it would be okay to leave everything behind and leave, and whether it would be a burden to the three of them.
“Honestly, is it an attractive offer?”
He couldn’t deny what Eileen said. Ending his life as a hero and getting a normal life. It was the dream he had so longed for in his last life.
“Then try it. You’ve lived your whole life for others.”
Aer’s eyes trembled. Eileen noticed that the trembling was not of fear but of excitement and anticipation, and smiled mischievously.
“When I checked the ground, I found that there were entrances and exits in various places other than here. Among them, there was one place where there were no people around… … .”
She decided to join Aer in his perfect crime.
***
After sneaking Aer out and returning to the entrance, they saw a pile of rocks the size of a house being carefully removed. The battle outside seemed to have been resolved well, as the knights were gathered and waiting for them.
“Eileen!”
As soon as the entrance opened fully, Lucian ran inside and hugged the three of them tightly.
“I’m so glad you’re safe.”
At this moment, Cordelia did not push Lucian away but hugged him obediently.
The Crown Prince’s emotional thanks and reunion with the Duke took place immediately, but the mood darkened again when news came that the hero had died in the final battle.
“That can’t be! That can’t be!”
The knights barely managed to stop the priest named Gabil, who had always been by Aer’s side, from jumping into the underground with burning eyes. The reason was that there was a risk of collapse due to the battle.
Aileen, who had been watching with a complicated look as Gabil and the members of the temple sat down and cried, turned her gaze to Cordelia. Cordelia was sitting with a confident expression, as if she didn’t care at all.
“Bandages! No more bandages?!”
As I took a deep breath, I saw the wounded. The plain was filled with people who had no bandages, so they used their comrades’ clothes to stop the bleeding, and people who were banging their foreheads on the dirt to overcome the pain.
Eileen, who had been quietly watching the scene, seemed to have a good idea and picked up Star. Then she whispered softly enough for only Star to hear.
“World Tree, you said that if I prevent destruction, you will grant my wish?”
As soon as Eileen finished speaking, the world stopped. The people who had been moving busily stopped moving, and the clouds floating across the sky became fixed as if they were nailed to the ground.
When Eileen turned her head slightly, the World Tree, which had taken the form of Theresa, was sitting next to her, smiling brightly.
“Okay. Have you decided on your wish?”
“yes.”
Eileen answered right away, looked around, and then said.
“You said there are no restrictions other than bringing the dead back to life?”
“Yes, because you did something worthwhile.”
“Then please heal all the wounded in this battlefield. Cleanly!”
The World Tree smiled brightly at her words. A smile brighter and purer than the dawn sunlight swept through the frozen world. Eileen, who had closed her eyes in the face of the brilliance, opened them again at the sound of people cheering.
“I’m back! My severed arm is back!”
“I survived! I survived!”
“I can see ahead!!”
“It’s a miracle from the Goddess! Thank you!!”
People who had been on the verge of death just a moment ago were now healthy, smiling broadly and shedding tears of joy. Everyone praised the goddess for the miracle that had occurred in an instant, but Eileen did not bother to correct them. There was something more important right now.
“Felix.”
“huh?”
Taking advantage of the commotion, Eileen sat close to Felix and whispered in his ear.
“i like you.”

A brief silence passed between the two. Felix’s face, which had seemed dazed for a moment, quickly turned bright red like a carrot.
“Oh, oh, oh!”
Felix pinched his cheek. It hurt. It definitely hurt.
“Just one more time! Eileen, say it one more time!”
“I must go see the Duke!”
As Eileen, whose ears were reddening, ran away, Felix followed her with a face that was relaxed and relaxed. Cordelia, who was watching the two from close by, snorted.
“It’s a good time.”
Now that I think about it, something else came to mind for her too.
‘The sea. Since you wanted to see it so badly, it would be nice if we could see it together.’
It was already difficult to imagine the innocent-looking white man smiling. Cordelia decided to secretly visit him.
***
The wounded people became whole.
The severed flesh was reborn and the shed blood was replenished. Everyone except the deceased received this miracle. Gray was no different.
“Ugh.”
“Gray, are you awake?!”
“Neumann?”
Neumann’s eyes filled with tears as he watched the boy struggling to open his eyes.
“You idiot!”
As the tears fell, Neumann hit Gray on the jaw.
‘Did Neumann hit me? No, why am I here in the first place? I’m sure it was at the villa.’
As the headache passed, memories of that day came back to him. He had been tricked into accepting the poisoned cup, which promised special powers. Gray shivered as he recalled the time he had lost his sense of self while bonded with the werewolf.
‘Neumann saved me.’
The memory remained, so he vividly remembered the expression on Neumann’s face as he saved him. Gray lowered his head. He was ashamed. He had only resented Neumann, but Neumann had not given up on him.
Gray said in a voice choked with tears.
“thank you.”
Bella watched the children reconcile from a distance. It was a nice sight, but the surroundings were not so nice.
‘Just in case, I captured the monsters that I could capture alive… … ‘
Among the creatures that were a fusion of monsters and humans, there were some who returned as humans, while there were also those who died as monsters.
‘The monster that directly harmed a person died on the spot.’
If it weren’t for Neumann, Gray might have met the same end. Bella sighed in relief.
Same time.
Albert, who was watching the miracle, quietly looked down at Ian in his arms.
There was no change. He had already lost his life at the hands of Mongma, so he was not the subject of this miracle. Albert held his friend’s cold body in his arms for a long time.
***
After leaving the Charvil Plains, Aer stopped by a nomadic village where all the people had fled. He planned to change his clothes and disguise himself.
But there was a guest who arrived early and was waiting for him.
“His Excellency Carlo.”
An old man with a gentle expression handed Aer some milk heated over a campfire.
“Would you like some? It tastes really good.”
Aer sat down next to him after drinking the milk. Carlo said as he added more firewood to the fire.
“Are you going?”
Aer nodded. He didn’t want to lie to Carlo.
“Aren’t you going to stop it?”
When I asked cautiously, Carlo laughed heartily.
“What’s there to stop a grown adult from becoming independent?”
“I have no intention of coming back.”
“If you don’t come back, then that must also be the goddess’s will.”
He looked back at Aer as he cleared the heated milk.
“You must be happy.”
“yes.”
Aer turned his head, feeling a little sad. Carlo, who had been looking at him with admiration, held out a huge bundle. Aer looked at him with trembling eyes at its overwhelming size.
“This is a bag containing money, clothes, disguise artifacts, first aid kits, extra shoes, food for immediate consumption, and syrup candies! Think of it as Carlo’s survival bag and treat it as one!”
Aer, who had been looking embarrassed, soon burst into laughter. It was a cool and clean laughter like a young boy.
