The Hero’s Brother Is Bound To Be Depressed - Chapter 407
408 – Nelson
I spoke confidently to Ellie, but inside I was desperately thinking about how to get out of this situation. Spatial magic was impossible to use because the spatial coordinates collapsed due to the chaos emitted by Confsion. This means that you have to use intangibility and spear skills to deal with Confsion.
Of course, there is magic knowledge and rapid growth magic, but there are magicians who are powerful enough to make Ellie’s hands useless to opponents. Even the vice president is a wizard close to the archmage.
Still, I plan to fight and protect Ellie somehow. As she said, she hates losing anyone anymore. She raised all her concentration and magic power and was ready to respond at any time.
however… Something is strange. A subtle sense of discomfort surrounds me.
What I found strange was that the vice-priest and Confsion, who could kill me and Ellie at any time, were quietly watching us. As if waiting for something… .
At that moment, something came to mind. In the second half of the novel, the story of a character who loses his life after saving Roel and Ellie from the cult’s trap… .
Although Roel is not by Ellie’s side now, it is me… You may feel that it will not affect the flow of the story. The Sangvis murderer who will kill Nelson has become our comrade, but this is not a story centered around Sangvis murder. The point was that Nelson, who had been a reliable ally, was leaving.
“Are you ready? “It’s boring to wait for someone to struggle.”
After saying appropriate words, the vice principal motioned to Arz and the other swordsman. She is a woman with long blonde hair tied up in one ponytail. She is the only female prosecutor in Confsion. Nero of Revelation, where she took number 4.
Arz, whose skills are on par with Roel, and Nero, whose skills are inferior, but whose abilities allow him to fight on par with Roel. To put it bluntly, neither of them are opponents I can beat right now. But we must fight.
It was Nero who struck first. The sword blade that suddenly pierced his neck barely managed to avoid it by turning his head and stabbed the spear into his chest.
Phew!
As soon as I pierced Nero’s chest, I dropped my spear and immediately re-emerged, blocking the sword flying from behind.
Kang-!
I blocked the sword, but I lost strength. As the spear was pushed back in an instant, I instantly relaxed my legs and naturally pushed back, throwing away the spear to increase the distance.
Nero, who had regenerated his pierced chest, rushed forward without hesitation. Ellie is behind me. If you dodge the rush, Ellie will get hurt. She had no choice but to fire back at him. The attack targeting her arms, legs, thighs, and joints became a meaningless attack as the wounds regenerated as soon as the spear was retrieved.
I ignored the attack and used my intangibility towards Nero, who was charging at me, and hit him with my shoulder. His body flew backwards with a huge impact, but he was able to balance in the air and land. But Arz had already anticipated where I would land and swung his sword.
Kwaaang-!
I was barely able to block the attack with the hastily implemented Shadow Spear, but my head became dizzy from the shock. As he was twisting his body and gasping for breath, I felt a strong shock on his face.
Part of the mask was broken by Nero’s fist. He swung his spear reflexively, but Nero, believing in his regenerative power, did not dodge the attack and instead struck back. Arz, who was waiting as his body was pushed back, swung his sword at me.
This cannot be avoided.
Chuuak-!
“… .”
At first I couldn’t feel anything. But soon, her whole body felt like it was burning, and the blood pouring from her cracked chest drenched her clothes. The clothes that had absorbed her blood felt so heavy.
As I was staggering and trying to keep my balance, I was unable to respond to Nero’s lunge from behind, and my body was thrown up in the air and rolled on the floor several times before coming to a stop in front of Ellie.
“Roh, Ross… .”
Seeing Ellie looking at me with difficulty, I coughed up blood from my mouth and tried to get up. But she couldn’t find the strength. A shadow appeared above my head. Arz came over to finish.
The spilled intestines hit the floor. Even breathing is difficult, so moving your body is impossible. Is it really possible to die like this… What happens to Luna in the space warehouse when I die? Will Roel be able to reach the ending he wants without me?
Just as many thoughts were coming into my head, a huge storm of magical power appeared from nowhere and swept through Arz. Arz, who was pushed back, no longer came closer. I couldn’t make a careless move against the person who appeared in front of me.
“Are you okay?”
It’s a voice I haven’t heard in a long time. It was still a soft and warm voice. It’s a voice I wanted to hear at the last moment, but didn’t want to hear until the end. Nelson appears here… Because I know what it means.
Nelson waved his wand and a green light enveloped me, temporarily blocking the pain and hurt. As I watched the intestines pouring out onto the floor and coming back inside, I looked up and saw Nelson.
“Nelson… “Principal.”
“You’ve been through a lot.”
When Nelson waved his wand again, Ellie’s body, which had fallen on the floor, rose and flew to my side. Elido Nelson appeared with a surprised and happy face.
“S-Master… “How did this happen?”
“I know what’s going on. “You don’t have to explain.”
Smiling softly, Nelson nodded to Ellie as if it was okay and turned to look at the pontoon owner.
“I will give you a chance to step down.”
“… Haha, are you telling us to back off now?”
“Fighting while protecting two people is not difficult for me.”
As Nelson showed his confidence, the vice-principal looked at him blankly and then burst into laughter. It was a laugh full of ridicule.
“You stupid old man. “I expected that if I targeted your student, you would naturally show up to protect him.”
“So can you stop me?”
“We won’t be enough.”
The vice principal raised his hand. Something black was waving endlessly in his palm as if it were alive.
“But for the leader who anticipated all of this, this is enough.”
Cassis opened a huge book. Black light flowed from the book, which opened the pages on its own, and three naked pregnant women walked out of the book. For a moment, I remembered meeting another world. I met a demon lord who possessed the baby that a pregnant woman was carrying.
“Be glad and fall down and worship.”
When the pontoon master snapped his fingers, the pregnant women’s stomachs were crushed. I heard the sound of something wet falling to the floor. The baby, attached to the umbilical cord, was crawling on the floor filled with amniotic fluid and blood.
“I am grateful that I can dare to watch the leader.”
Babies connected to the umbilical cord crawled and gathered together in one place, stretching their hands upward. At first glance, the small baby’s hand appeared to be grasping something invisible.
Uddukdukduk―――
A mask appeared out of thin air. Then the babies’ bodies swelled and burst, and their flesh formed their bodies. The pregnant woman dragged by the umbilical cord also became flesh and became material for a body.
Suddenly the sky became dark. I raised my head without realizing it. No, the sky did not darken. Something huge was blocking the sky. Finally I realized. That’s snow. Huge blue eyes were looking down at the Valley of Death.
“this… What the hell is this… .”
Ellie, stuttering and unable to understand the current situation, looked up at the sky blankly. If she was Nelson, she must know something. She looked away, looked down at me with strange emotions, and made eye contact with Nelson.
“Principal Nelson… ?”
Suddenly I felt anxious. I’ve only experienced those eyes a few times, but they were similar to the eyes that remain a great memory to me. Those eyes are… No, it was similar to the look my father gave me for the last time.
“That’s the end of my story.”
“yes? What is that… .”
“I apologize sincerely to you.”
I tried to ask why he was apologizing as if it were the last time. But for some reason I was speechless and couldn’t say anything. Isn’t it because it’s an apology from one of the most trustworthy people in the world?
Nelson is the person who helped me so much and supported me several times when I was falling apart. I thought of him as a replacement for his father, who once hated Ross, and at other times as a kind grandfather.
Nelson looked at Ellie and me once and smiled softly.
“I believe we can do well until the end.”
A transparent membrane formed around me and Ellie. In an instant, the temperature around me dropped and snow began to fall on my head. It was like stepping into a snow globe.
“… No, no. If we run away together… Principal… . Please, please… If you stay here, you’ll die. That’s, that’s, I don’t like it… So, so… together… .”
I whined endlessly like a child. Nelson smiled slightly and lowered his body to meet my gaze. With his light green eyes shining, Nelson spoke in a soft voice.
“You are doing well enough.”
Behind Nelson, the bodies of three women and three babies were seen being completed. When the body, with a mask on his face, finally opened its closed eyes, my vision shifted.
“ah… .”
From noble mtl dot com
Everything around had changed. There was no sign of Nelson, Confsion, or the cult leader. All I could see around me was snow.
“Roh, Ross… .”
Ellie, unable to control herself, called my name with difficulty. I belatedly came to her senses and hugged Ellie, who was growing cold.
“are you okay. It’s okay now… .”
“Master… ?”
In response to Ellie’s question, I repeated the same thing, wiping away the endless tears.
“… are you okay. “It’ll be okay.”
Ellie seemed to have noticed something as well and began to shed tears. But she lost so much blood that she soon lost her mind. I came to my senses late and quickly looked around. I couldn’t lose Ellie like this.
Something caught my eye in my vision blurred with tears.
A gate standing in the middle of a snowy mountain.
I realized it when I saw it.
That this is the snowy mountain that exists beyond the closet of the Messiah Club.
