The Regressor and the Blind Saint - The Regressor and the Blind Saint chapter 268
For Lennon, Elia was such a place.
Except for the hut where they live, everything is pure white land.
A land where everyone you meet smiles.
A land that cannot but be loved.
Lennon loved Elia.
He loved Elia’s things, people, and their smiles.
Therefore, Lennon’s footsteps as he walked on the land he loved had no choice but to be light.
Daeshinjeon arrived at an excited pace.
Lennon clenched his fists and recalled his goal for the day.
‘Pirate King!’
Today I was going to meet the Pirate King.
Lennon already knew that Ellen had a name, but Lennon called Ellen the Pirate King.
That’s because the name is more cool.
Priests and paladins greet each other with a smile as they walk around the Great Hall.
Lennon says to them, ‘Shh!’
It was because the Pirate King was always hiding in a quiet and nook.
‘Not in the chapel!’
It seems to be somewhere else today.
Lennon said, “Hmm,” and continued to worry.
Lennon, who was obliged to make the pirate king laugh, the only person in Elia who didn’t laugh, began to think about where she was usually hiding.
‘A food pantry? Trevor’s lab? Or a sanctuary?’
A place where all sides are tightly closed and sound does not leak well.
Surely the Pirate King will be there.
Lennon radiated a divinity.
The pure white divinity gathered like a ball from his fingertips and spread his wings.
Intermediate Discovery Technique [Tracker].
The spell with its wings spread out flies in a slow motion.
Then which direction did it go?
Lennon knew what was at the end.
‘It’s a dormitory!’
It seems to be hiding under the dorm bed.
Lennon’s face brightened when he found out the answer.
The pretty boy with white hair dyed his cheeks red and started running.

Lennon calls him the Pirate King.
Ellen, the Apostle of Judgment, was hiding under the bed and exuding melancholy today.
‘… I hate it now.’
I wanted to go home.
I longed for the salty wind, the rippling sea, and all the seafood and seafood that came out at every meal.
I don’t want to be in this pure white city anymore.
I didn’t like Bargo, who only looked at myself and made me miserable.
I didn’t like the sly Trevor who spys on my forearm every day.
I didn’t like Marie and the twins who gave them food torture, and I didn’t like Lohan who was obsessed with teaching women how to be popular.
“Ugh… .”
However, the one I hate the most is Vera.
It was prosperous.
‘It’s a training session again and I’ll be beaten… .’
For most of these seven years, except for a few dispatches, the thing that bothered Ellen the most was Vera’s training.
unrelenting violence.
A series of algae that cools the throat at every moment.
In terms of the rise of force, it was a training that showed incredible efficiency, but at the same time, it was a training that reminded me of the feeling of being trampled down to the roots in terms of personality.
rattle-.
Ellen’s body trembled.
His eyes were tightly closed, and his body was crouched tight.
I won’t go out like this today.
I will spend a peaceful time stuck in the corner of the room.
It was Ellen who remembered her promise, but things in the world never flowed like her heart.
Bump-!
“Pirate King!”
The voice of a young boy is heard along with the sound of the door opening violently.
The exhilarating voice was something Ellen knew all too well.
Ellen stopped breathing.
The sign has disappeared.
Son of the sick Vera.
This is because, if caught by him, a peaceful day would be unimaginable.
“The Pirate King?”
At the sound of the call again, Ellen’s presence collapsed.

One, it was pointless.
Lennon is a god man.
It is a living miracle that contains the divinity of heaven even before it was born.
As much as he is, Ellen can immediately recognize the divinity she harbors, no matter how much she loses her presence.
“we are here!”
Lennon lifted the bedspread.
A bright white boy with a bright smile entered Ellen’s bright vision.
Ellen frowned and said.
“… close it The light comes on.”
“Can not be done! The Pirate King has to go on an adventure with me today!”
Lennon pulled out the bed linen and pulled it off.
Ellen trembled at the horror.
“Really… .”
hate… .

Exit the Great Hall and go to Elia’s Square.
Lennon held Ellen’s hand and walked briskly.
“My mother did! People say that just being in a room makes people depressed and sensitive! It’s sad because the Pirate King is always in the corner!”
Words uttered in a powerful voice resonate in the square.
The priests and paladins walking down the street looked at Ellen with a grin at those words.
Ellen bowed her head in embarrassment and muttered.
“If it wasn’t for you, I would be happy… .”
“Not like that! My mother always says the right things, so the reason the Pirate King is sad is because he is in the room!”
Who does she resemble, mother or father?
Ellen sighed, clearing the question that came to mind for a moment.
‘… What does that matter?’
As a result, it’s important to come out like this.
Ellen sat in front of the fountain in the square and made a blank face.
Lennon, who sat next to him, looked at Ellen with a sly smile.
“How is it? Are you happy now?”
The gray eyes twinkle.
Anticipation spreads across his face.
Ellen glanced at her face, then answered.
“no.”
“What!”
Lennon jumped up.
A look of shock filled his face.
“Your mother was wrong… ?”
A face as if the world had collapsed.
Ellen flinched at it.
It was a feeling of guilt.
A former pirate who had been plundering could have said that he felt guilty about this, but that would fit easily if he saw Lennon’s face.
Lennon was beautiful even as a boy.
To put it bluntly, it really has an ‘angel-like’ shape.
do you know
How heartbreaking when I think that an angel who came down from heaven is crying because of me.
Ellen’s mouth tightened.
I tried to turn away, but the sign I felt right next to me pricked my conscience even more.
As always, Ellen eventually couldn’t escape the guilt and declared surrender.
“… Sorry, I lied. In fact, I think I’m a little happier.”
At the end of Ellen’s gaze after saying that, there was a boy with a bright complexion.
“Also… !”
Shake your body and rejoice.
What are you proud of doing?
Ellen let out a sigh in the head of the unknown boy.
‘I want to go in now… .’
Considering this boy’s behavior, he would never let go until evening.
Ellen frowned and looked up at the sky.
‘Please take this off.’
He prayed to the god who had stigmatized him.
However, if it had been resolved with such a wish, things would not have been so twisted.
“Pirate King!”
“… why.”
“Why doesn’t the Pirate King laugh when he says he’s happy?”
Lennon asked, tilting his head.
Ellen responded with a feeling of a rush in the back of her neck.
“I don’t normally laugh.”
“Can you be happy without smiling?”
“I cry when I am happy.”
“then… !”
Lennon made a look of astonishment.
He recalled confusion in the gap between the two words, happiness and heartbreak.
A serious expression.
A cute hand gently stroking his chin in accordance with it.
“Ugh… ! Come to think of it, I heard it from my mother! There are times when I am so happy that tears come out! When my father proposed to me, my mother said she cried because she was so happy!”
“Yeah, it was… .”
Ellen’s expression turned cold.

Of course, it’s because he’s not even interested in the love story between Seonghwang and Seong-nyeo.
I guess I’ll just have to listen to it like this and go back.
After thinking about it like that, Lennon spit out words that he couldn’t just ignore.
“It seems that the Pirate King is as happy as being with me as being proposed to me!”
“fit… What?”
Whoop!, Ellen’s head turned.
The expression that appeared on his face seemed to be absurd.
When asked what he had just heard, Lennon with a confident face answered.
“Isn’t that right! The Pirate King always cries when he’s with me, so actually talking to me is as much joy as getting a proposal!”
I wonder what kind of logic it is.
Ellen touched her forehead as she felt her mind go far away.
“Wow… .”
Where should I start explaining this?
Ellen thought about it for a while and then gave up on giving up an answer.
“Yeah, think what you want.”
“Hmmmm!”
Lennon’s lips twitched.
Ellen felt a longing for the beginning of the year.
A bench with two opposing emotions.
Lennon continued with a sly smile.
“thank god! I am so relieved that the Pirate King is not unhappy!”
Pure joy erupts and warms the air.
Ellen grinned, not knowing what to say, and then posed the question.
“Why do you care so much about me? What does the saint say?”
It was a natural question for Ellen.
It’s already been three years.
From the time I was able to jump on my own until now, this pure white boy continues to circle around him, forcing him to laugh.
At this point, it was time to fall because of exhaustion, but he was so tenacious that he never thought of falling.
So far, I’ve just skipped over it, but after saying this, my curiosity soared.
Lennon’s eyes widened, and he spit out an answer without hesitation.
“I like to be happy!”
“What?”
“Laughing makes you happy! Happiness warms your heart! It feels good when it’s warm! So, I hope everyone’s hearts are warm!”
It was a laughable answer.
“barely?”
“Not at all!”
Lennon folded his arms.
He made eye contact with Ellen.
“My mother did! Happiness is sharing! This will make the world brighter and warmer! If I make the Pirate King laugh, the Pirate King will also make others laugh! If everyone shares happiness like that, no one in the world weeps!”
tremble-.
Ellen’s fingertips trembled.
“So I have to make the Pirate King laugh! When the Pirate King is happy, I will be happy!”
When Lennon finished speaking, he grinned.
Ellen opened her mouth and looked at it, and without realizing it, she said, ‘Bread!’ burst into laughter
“Great, Khahahak… !”
“yes? uh?! Pirate King! Laughing now!”
As Lennon opened his arms and spoke as if surprised, Ellen’s laughter grew louder.
The priests and paladins around him all smiled, forgetting that they were even looking at him.
“The Pirate King?”
Lennon’s head tilted.
Ellen burst into laughter for a long time, then finally calmed her smile and looked at Lennon.
“This is me.”
“yes?”
“No, no.”
Ellen’s hand reached out and ruffled Lennon’s hair.
“Baby, when you get a little bigger, you’re going to make some girls cry?”
It must have been something he was not conscious of.
Nevertheless, Lennon’s words were comforting and supportive, like a sweet confession of love.
He laughed at the thought that a young child already had yellow sprouts.
However, it was also a laugh.
“no!”
Lennon, who made a bright face, answered in a loud voice.
“I don’t make women cry! It will make you laugh!”
“Well… .”
Laughter oozes out.
It’s been a long time since I came to Elia, and I think it’s the first time I’ve laughed like this.
Ellen felt a warm feeling in her heart for some reason at the thoughts that came to her.
‘ah.’
This must be the warmth Lennon spoke of.
Ellen’s eyebrows drooped.
The face, which had always had an impression on it, was relieved of its strength and turned into a gentle impression.
Lennon felt the face go blank in his head.
“uh… .”
thought inadvertently.
Lennon remembered how beautiful Ellen’s smile was.
bean-.
My heart raced.
Ellen looked at Lennon’s expression as if puzzled, then turned her head as if it was no big deal.
‘I don’t know.’
I’m really curious what this little boy is thinking.
Ellen got the sunlight thinking about it.
Elia on a warm spring day.

On this day, Lennon realized for the first time in his life the feeling of palpitations.
What is the true nature of this pounding, and what does it mean to make the woman cry that Ellen spoke of?
Lennon was still a long way from realizing it.
