Chapter 31. I will definitely become real and go back

Tails stood there blankly as if his head had been hit by a hammer.

He asked urgently.

“Definitely. Are you sure you delivered it?”

Tail’s voice trembled slightly.

“Isn’t there another watcher next to you or someone pretending to be there?”

At his words, Khan replied with a slight displeasure.

“Are you saying I told you carelessly?”

He sighed and continued.

“It’s hard to believe, but it’s true. It’s hard, but accept it. Tale.”

Khan’s low voice disturbed Tail’s head.

“I even used a noise canceling spell to deliver the letter, but they both refused to accept it.”

“hahahaha….”

A helpless laugh escaped from Tail’s mouth.

It didn’t make sense.

They were so close?

But after thinking a little more, the answer came out.

‘No. I can.’

Tale put his thoughts together.

‘I’m just a commoner, and they’re people of great status.’

How dare you send them a letter.

It was natural not to receive it.

Thinking that way made me feel better.

Kan paused for a moment and asked cautiously.

“Are you okay?”

Tale let out a big smile.

“It’s okay. They live in a completely different world from me.”

These people are in a completely different position from you.

At the same time, they were also people I would probably never see again.

If you see it, it’s probably a glimpse from a distance.

It must be about that much.

Tale smiled lightly.

From inside the bolt, he could feel Khan looking at him with a worried look.

“It’s okay. Don’t worry, you’ll be fine.”

I was only shaken for a moment.

I just had small expectations.

“It went rather well.”

Tail forced a corner of her mouth into a smile.

“If those kids got the letter too, Khan would have to keep working hard.”

Khan did not respond to Tail’s bright expression.

After a short silence, Khan struggled to open his mouth.

“They seem to be living happily ever after.”

“….”

Tale couldn’t speak.

As if understanding the tail, Khan continued.

“So live a good life as if you were showing off. Happier than anyone else.”

Tail let out a small laugh.

She must have recognized that this was consolation in the way of Khan.

“Yes. It should be.”

Tail clenched her fists.

Now the time has come for you to wake up from your dream.

Thinking that way made her feel a little relieved.

“Thanks for the consolation, Khan.”

“… I just said what I had to say.”

Tail smiled lightly at Khan’s words.

“Yes. I will go back today.”

After saying that, Tail walked helplessly out of the room.

* * *

The Khan left alone after Tail left, no, Ennis, the demon king, slowly came out of the bolt.

Beautiful long silver hair fluttered slightly with each step.

The black eyes like obsidian were cold.

Ennis sat down lightly on the sofa.

“Ha ha.”

She let out a short sigh and put her wine glass aside.

Then, Leon, her closest aide, appeared next to her and poured wine into her glass with a polite gesture.

Ennis looked at the red wine in her wine glass with familiarity, then opened her mouth.

“Zephyran is.”

A voice as cold as frost escaped her lips.

Leon answered, lowering her head.

“I went to find out what you ordered.”

Ennis slowly blinked her eyes.

As I took a small sip of the wine, it filled my mouth with a soft yet harsh taste.

It was a fairly high alcohol content, but Ennis didn’t feel drunk at all.

At the same time, the tail that had just come and gone came to mind in her mind.

To be precise, Tail’s face was frustrated at the news that she had rejected the letter.

She muttered softly with a blank expression.

“Why did I hide it?”

Ennis recalled her memories of meeting Chloe and Cecilia.

It was true that they both rejected the letter.

However.

‘They looked so distressed.’

The expression of the two children refusing the letter looked so sad.

It looked precarious and difficult, like a person on the verge of collapse.

I could tell just by looking at it.

That they haven’t forgotten Tails.

That it was rejected for some reason.

‘If I just told him this, it would probably be of great comfort to him.’

From noble mtl dot com.

Maybe it will give Tail the strength to endure the long wait.

‘I didn’t want to say anything strange.’

Ennis didn’t want to give even the slightest hope for that part.

Rather, she wanted to take away her hope and rely more on herself.

So she seems to have lied, saying that Chloe and Cecilia are living well and that they looked happy.

Ennis murmured, gently shaking her wine glass.

“Yes. Connection between humans. I don’t have to force it.”

The blood-red wine swayed slightly in the glass.

Yes. That’s it.

No more than that.

However, Leon’s expression when he saw such Ennis became subtle.

He hesitated, then glanced at her and said.

“Demon King. You are being forced.”

When she saw it, she just seemed to be bothered by the tail.

There is no need to forcibly connect human ties.

This isn’t a forced connection, it’s a forced break!

Leon kept the words out of her throat, but she held back.

That’s probably because Ennis was glaring at Leon.

“Leon.”

“Yes. Demon King.”

As Leon answered, lowering her head, Ennis’ cold voice pierced her ears.

“If you don’t want to get beaten up right now, get out of here.”

As soon as Ennis had finished her sharp words, Leon prostrated himself and disappeared.

Ennis let out a long sigh as her utter stillness engulfed the space.

She needed to wait.

The competent Zephyran will soon bring information about Cecilia and Chloe.

Why did she suddenly have to change her stance?

‘There’s no need to tell Tail.’

Ennis’ dark eyes glistened in this room, where the scarlet light shone dimly.

***

Returning to the monastery room, Tail was lost in thought.

‘I could give up on those children as it is.’

I told Khan that I was going to give up, but in fact he didn’t want to.

I wanted to reach even a little bit of those who are far away.

Tail’s eyes flashed.

‘If I can’t approach you because I’m a commoner.’

I had to somehow obtain the title of noble.

As if they came to their world, this time you go to their world.

‘Perhaps impossible.’

Reaching the two children, who were nobles from birth, might be like reaching the stars in the sky.

Now if Tails himself started learning how to walk, they would ride a wagon and run away, such an absurd chase.

But Tail didn’t want to give up.

Because the two children who were like the stars in the sky came to me like fate.

Then, it was up to him to approach this time.

‘Me too. Now it must be your turn to be real.’

I have lived with pessimism all my life.

I thought that this world might be nothing more than a fake made by an unknown idiot anyway.

But now it had to change.

Tail called the status window after a long time.

[Potential Ability]

Intelligence: A

mana: C

Swordsmanship: S

Divine Power : D

Remarks: Actual stats start to be displayed after talent develops through a certain amount of training.

‘Swordsmanship… S.’

With the money I’ve collected, it’s not enough to get a title.

That said, I couldn’t do Pro-Meta’s work right now because I didn’t know the future.

Above all, an astrologer is an aristocrat’s fun toy, nothing more and nothing less.

Then there was only one path for Tails to choose.

Tayl, who gave the answer, immediately moved to the monk’s training room.

The training room, which had been left unattended for a long time by no one, had a pleasant smell of dust.

Tail held up the old wooden sword that was placed on one side without hesitation.

I could feel the rough texture of the handle from the palm of my hand to the tips of my fingers because it wasn’t maintained.

It was as if it was telling Tail’s state of mind, which was now infinitely rusted.

‘Peel off.’

He swung his wooden sword with a determined look on his face.

Hoo-!

If once is difficult.

Hoo-!

Twice.

If you feel like you’re not enough even twice.

Hoo-!

Three times.

He continued swinging his wooden sword.

How many times did he swing?

The handle of the wooden sword first became damp with burst blisters, then blood began to ooze little by little from the cracks.

But Tail didn’t stop his hand.

Because this was training.

Hoo-!

It’s training for the first time you’ve ever touched a sword.

Hoo-!

Take care of everything lightly, training for your own weak spirit that you lost powerlessly when a truly important being appeared.

Tail the next morning. After searching the monastery to find him, Eugene barely found him and stopped training only after screaming.

“Heo Eok. Huh Eok. Huh.”

My heart raced.

The sound traveled up his chest and pounded the eardrum in his head.

Thump! Thud! Thud! Thud!

Being a fake, he felt himself stripped.

And just one step.

It’s just one step.

It felt a little closer to the real thing.

‘Wait a little… Wait a little bit.’

Even if my body is broken.

Even if you have to pay for the soul.

Because I will definitely become real and go back.

Tails murmured and gripped the wooden sword in her handle even tighter.

And so.

Five years passed quickly.
