“Sister, my body is strange… ”
“What?”
Serena grabbed my falling body.
And he started looking at me with worried eyes.
I’ve seen it a few times with a serious look, but the expression on Serena’s face, who always managed to avoid situations with a grin on her face, was unbelievable.
I didn’t know you would get such a sensitive reaction.
At first, I thought, ‘Is this a bit too much of a joke?’, but when I think about forcibly feeding a strange drug that I can’t even identify, I decided that this kind of action was necessary at least once to raise awareness.
Still, because I was afraid of the repercussions, I couldn’t even think of doing the second verse.
“It’s Gura.”
“How dare you play such a prank on me?”
Serena’s expression began to change in an instant.
The regret and embarrassment that filled his face were immediately replaced by anger, and his clenched fists were gradually rising upwards.
I was watching the whole process from just a span of distance, so I had a rough idea of what was going to happen.
As expected, the sound of watermelon cracking could be heard overhead.
“You know there’s a saying in Korea, ‘the hawk of love’, right? It’s something I really like.”
However, there was one unexpected part, and that was that the honey night baptism was not over with just one.
It was too harsh retaliation to be dismissed as a price for a small prank.

In the end, I said, ‘I love you. Only after saying, ‘Professor.’ was released from the torture chamber, he was able to escape to Glenlunark.
In addition, it seems that I suffered more than half a day physically, but the fact that less than a minute passed by outside time made me sadder.
I don’t know what kind of torture I’ll suffer next time I’m locked up there again.
I couldn’t even use the excuse that I was busy because of the time difference with the outside.
How come it’s only the two of us here, his expression brightened up too much.
Was it for that reason?
“You came back much earlier than expected. Doesn’t it look like the person you talked to didn’t give you the medicine?”
The days come when Nihilis feels so welcome.
One of the three people who was my teacher was a kidnapper/container, and the other was a maniac who conducts biological experiments.
Taken from n̲o̲b̲l̲e̲m̲t̲l̲.̲c̲o̲m̲
Moreover, compared to the two of them who only talk and act out of control, Nihilis was also a relatively moderate and intuitive person.
“This Buddhist disciple sees Master.”
“You sound inappropriate. It looks like he’s still on medication, doesn’t he? I saw that the taste was gone as a result of the side effects of the drug.”
“What are you talking about sadly? This disciple finally realizes his immorality and is just trying to serve Master with all his heart.”
“I don’t think I’ll be able to see you, so even if I go there… ”
Nihilis abruptly stopped speaking and began to look at me slowly.
The reddish eyes under the mask were also burning more intensely than usual.
“It seems that the elixir or something actually worked.”
“yes?”
“see. Little by little, mana begins to flow.”
“I don’t feel anything.”
“It will start to feel slowly over time. It’s natural to feel nothing right now. Even to my eyes, it is very subtle.”
Did that extinguisher actually work?
I wasn’t even skeptical.
I’ll have to say thank you to Serena later.
“So, are you saying you can grow again now?”
“right. However, training should be continuous. The moment you stop training, the mana cycle will also stop.”
“It is not difficult. I am always working hard.”
“I don’t trust you when you say something like that every time you only think about playing and eating.”
This is really embarrassing.
It’s true that I’m full of thoughts of eating and playing, but I’ve never really played and ate.
How busy have I been?
“No, really, if I had only played and ate, I wouldn’t have been able to become this strong. There have been many achievements so far.”
“Isn’t that all thanks to your personal service?”
In fact, most of what I’ve accomplished was done with a spoon.
Having a lot of good people around is an ability, and it is undoubtedly a great ability to lead and lead so many people.
I don’t know if it’s a human who plays quietly under the water like Blake, but since I’m a fighter at the forefront, I had to have the ability to protect myself.
However, I was not willing to accept that statement.
Because I am the one who will float with just one mouth even if it sinks, so I was prepared to jot down and spit like usual.
“Knowing that, wouldn’t it be that I decided to have such a good Master?”
“… done. Pick up your sword.”
Leaving behind the sighs that could be heard through the mask, I first took out the Mana Glaive and listened to it.
“Here you go.”
“Compared to before, the swordsman is in a much more stable state. This is worth a try.”
“What do you mean?”
“New technology to teach you.”
New technology!
Although I had already been taught a lot of skills from Nihilis, to be honest, it is true that I felt that I was not enough.
Because most of the techniques I learned were techniques with a little bit of flaws rather than the ‘ultimate misinformation!’ that is often described in the media.
Of course, since spiritualism itself is an unfinished technology in the first place, it is inevitable, but it was quite good for me to increase the width of the technology.
“Oh, what are you doing? Normally, when asked to teach me about other techniques, he refused every time saying, ‘This is not an area that a kid like you can handle’.”
“I don’t know if you’re aware of it yourself, but the things you’ve been working on and the things you’re going to touch in the future are not common. Sooner or later, those events will converge and converge on you, creating a vortex that is out of control. Will you be able to survive in the midst of it?”
It may sound like the beginning of some great chronicle or heroic story, but to me, it was a story that didn’t really inspire me.
everything you’ve done so far.
Wasn’t it all prepared for that?
I promise, it’s been a long time since I finished.
“of course.”
“I wonder why a guy who is always busy thinking about excuses to come up with can answer so boldly. That question just wasn’t a question anyone else could answer so easily. I would have thought about it for a while.”
“This disciple will be rude and question the Master just once. Master, at what point do you think there is a time when you should not back down even though you know you will be defeated?”
“It’s time to not back down even though you know you will be defeated.”
Perhaps people would say yes when honor and pride are at stake.
Both are words that don’t suit me at all.
Still, the reason I had to mention that was only to suggest that Nihilis was a human being who could not live even if he died without honor and pride.
I’m a person who doesn’t care if I don’t have honor or pride.
Why are you fighting?
It’s just that there’s nowhere to retreat, so you’re just trying to be brave.
Whether it’s honor or pride, it’s just an excuse to make my actions plausible.
“The moment you have to let go. That’s when you know you’re going to lose, but don’t back down. Even if the body surrenders, only the mind is one’s own to be alive. If the mind and body were not entirely their own, would they be any different from the dead?”
“Then I will ask you again. Would you choose to die alive when something that no one can stop and that cannot be undone happens? Would you choose to live as the dead?”
The red eyes under the mask, which had been staring at me all the time, slowly wound up.
At the same time, the pressure and harshness of living that had always been felt by Nihilis also disappeared.
It wasn’t the only thing missing.
Because the wind that always meandered through the canyon, the occasional mist and rain, the moon and stars that should have risen at this time of day were all hidden behind.
So, in the world where everything stopped, it was the red half moon that began to illuminate between the black holes that finally began to move.
“If it were me, I would choose to die as a living. A body that has already chosen to live as the dead, if only I could choose again.”
“… Is that so. I”
“You don’t have to answer. I understand what you meant when you said that. No, it’s okay even if you don’t understand. I will respect whatever choice you make.”
“thank you.”
“Teach me a skill other than the one I was originally going to teach you. From now on, you will learn a sword against all people, not against one person.”
“Suddenly?”
“If you are standing in the midst of a typhoon that cannot be prevented or reversed, it is impossible to endure from the beginning. Then, shouldn’t you learn to shake off the wind?”
he swung his sword
Then, the stopped world began to shake again.
“From now on, the path you have to go is not a sword to survive, but a sword to overcome by living.”
