EP.456 The heaviness of truth (6)

* * *

***

Did Salome finish it wrong?

Dawn woke up not in the Senate’s residential-commercial building, but in the magic tower’s room.

I knew right away that it was a dream. Because the magic tower occupying the room was Mahagan, not Tomasi.

As I was looking at it, wondering something, a neat-looking man opened the door and came in. It wasn’t a slide this time.

Anyway, when Mahagan turned his head, the man opened his mouth.

-Master, I don’t understand. Even after knowing the truth, you gave up everything!

Immediately after saying those words, the appearance of the man who called Mahagan his teacher changed. He suddenly aged by a few months and spoke in a more earnest tone than before.

-You can change it. Master, isn’t it the duty of a wizard to change the world through cool-headed calculation and reason? We can do it. We’re going to end all of this!

Dawn could tell that he was a kind person. From the way she spoke to her every action, she was delicate and careful.

But at some point, after Mahagan quoted someone’s words, his appearance changed.

[Even if you stop the pendulum, time goes back, and even if you hide under the blanket, the sun rises. Disciple. Nothing ends.]

The man has changed. It was not from Dawn’s point of view, but objectively.

-No, Master. Still, you should try it.

His calm eyes were shining with anger, and his cautious tone became sharp, as if he was being chased by something.

-I promise. I will end all of this. No more frustration or giving up.

He slowly approached Mahagan. His clothes changed with each step.

Old robes, Earth suits, ornate robes, and… At the point of putting on the rags, he stabbed Mahagan in the back.

-I will not ask for forgiveness. Master. Instead, I promise you: This is not a self-fulfilling prophecy.

Dawn looked at the man who killed her teacher. He is a man who doesn’t even shed tears. He quietly took his teacher’s body and walked out the door.

Is this the end? She waited to see if Dawn would show her anything more.

But no matter how long he waited, the room did not change, and it took him a while before he got up.

And the moment you open the door and go out.

『Wait a minute, I forgot something.』

Suddenly, Stalin’s voice came from next to me. When Dawn turned her head in surprise, she saw the Secretary holding an artifact.

An artificial relic taken from the KGB by Dawn.

『Don’t use this trick again. Do you understand?』

Yes, I won’t have to call you again.

When Dawn answered like that, Stalin burst into laughter.

『You have to go to find out.』

What does that mean-?

Before Dawn could ask again, Stalin ripped off a medal from his clothes.

The medal features a red star with a sickle and hammer, a symbol of the Soviet Union, inside a golden laurel wreath, and above it is a torch and a waving red flag.

On the medal flag, the words ‘Workers of all nations, unite!’ were engraved in Russian, and it was only after reading the words that Yeo-myeong realized the true nature of the medal.

Red Flag Medal.

Stalin, who held the first medal created by the Soviet regime, naturally placed it on Dawn’s chest.

this.

Surprised, Yeo-myeong took off the medal and tried to run away, but as soon as Stalin caught him, his body froze.

Stalin, who had even put a red medicine cabinet on her stiffened chest, said with a smile.

『Praising the achievement of the operation to stop Hitler’s resurrection… Oh, and the Hero of the Soviet Union’s Gold Star medal cannot be given ‘yet’. You know what I mean, right?』

No, I don’t know. And I don’t need this medal.

When Dawn, who showed disapproval, giggled like that, Stalin tapped her shoulder one last time and said,

『I’ll say it again, you’ll have to go to find out.』

Dawn could not refute. Following the flashing light of the medal, the dream I had been forced to continue was coming to an end.

***

…

Dawn slowly opened her eyes.

After blinking his blurred vision a few times, an unfamiliar ceiling greeted him. Did he faint?

As I stood up and stretched, a smell hit my nose. The smell of sharp red pepper powder and the strong scent of MSG.

I turned my head following the smell and saw a familiar face.

A beautiful face with clear features, black hair roughly tied up, and blue eyes that sparkle like jewels.

Hong Seti. She was sitting on the table next to the bed where Yeo-myeong was lying, opening the lid of the cup ramen.

Perhaps because it had just finished cooking, Seti froze while holding the lid of the cup ramen.

A brief silence, a brief moment of awkwardness.

Dawn took off the blanket and asked in a theatrical tone.

“Sir, don’t you have anything of mine?”

Seti suddenly raised his eyebrows as if wondering what the dialect was, but then answered with a fresh expression.

“no. And then he goes to save another woman and finds food first when she faints. “Isn’t that too much?”

Come to think of it, is that right? She laughed, got up from the bed, took the wooden chopsticks rolling around on the table, and said.

“There is nothing this woman can’t say to her husband who came home from work.”

“… .”

After Yeomyeong grumbled like that, she scooped up a large bowl of ramen noodles and brought it to her mouth, and Seti couldn’t help but giggle.

“Where on earth did you learn to talk like that?”

“A classic novel.”

“Not a documentary but a novel? Hmm, then I’m glad I brought cup ramen. “If I had brought seolleongtang, I wouldn’t have woken up.”

“… .”

“You idiot, I brought you seolleongtang, why can’t you eat it?”

While Seti was imitating lines from a classic novel like a voice actor, Dawn handed back the half of the remaining ramen and asked.

“If it’s a lucky day, maybe that’s really what happened? what… Anyway, how long have I been passed out?”

“About ten hours.”

Surprisingly, I didn’t faint for long. Dawn asked, looking at Seti wiping her noodles.

“So what happened to the rest?”

“Well, first of all, Salome is safe. Her physical condition is so bad that she can’t even use magic… Aside from sealing the demon lord, nothing special happened. According to the words of the Mage Tower, I was lucky.”

“… .”

It was a lucky day in many ways. While Dawn was nodding, Seti, who finished the cup of ramen soup, spoke.

“And the Senate issue was covered up under the pretext of an investigation. Because there are still disciples of the previous Mage Tower and Mahagan… “The executioner said it could take about two days.”

“… .”

Only then did Dawn realize that the story of the Magic Tower was not over yet.

Fatigue crept up my neck, but at the same time I felt a little relieved.

Whatever happens in the future, it won’t be worse than what Hitler and Stalin did.

Anyway, he sighed and Seti put a hand on his shoulder.

“Do you want to rest a little longer? “I’ll wake you up if I see any movement over there.”

“No, I’m ready to sleep, can I eat? “The addition of ramen makes me even more hungry for no reason.”

Seti smiled and stood up, as if he knew that would happen.

“Then let’s go to the restaurant. “It’s almost meal time, so you can eat first.”

Has it already been that long? No, after passing out in the early morning and sleeping for about ten hours, it was just lunch time.

And that means that Seti stayed by his side, skipping lunch and eating ramen instead.

Dawn, who was touched for no reason, held her hand and stood up.

As the two were about to leave the room, something fell to the floor from between Yeo-myung’s loose top.

The Red Flag medal given to me by Stalin in my dream.

While Dawn was staring with a straight face, Seti picked up the medal and asked.

“What is this? decoration? “Where did you get this?”

“… “Stalin gave it to me because I helped catch Hitler.”

“… .”

Perhaps it was such an honest confession that Seti laughed as if telling him not to joke. Of course, she couldn’t laugh at Dawn.

And after a while, in the silence, she realized that Dawn’s words were not a joke and asked with a slightly serious face.

“… “Perhaps this, like Kim Philby’s medal, is a high-ranking item among the holy relics?”

“… .”

Because it was such a plausible hypothesis, Dawn stopped Seti from imbuing the medal with mana.

***

Unlike its scary exterior, the interior of Dumea Mansion was beautiful.

Of course, the sight of Gasol walking around inside was extremely bloody.

Fully armed, like soldiers about to go into battle, they saluted every time the dawn passed by, but it was more than just treating guests.

A serious manner, as if treating a family benefactor.

The will and attitude contained in the etiquette were so serious that Yeomyeong felt burdened.

But Sethi’s opinion was slightly different.

“Why, you are the family’s benefactor, right?”

“… .”

“I recovered the body of the previous matriarch, fought alongside the current matriarch, and saved the life of the future matriarch… If this isn’t a benefactor, what is? Don’t do that, just open your chest. “You also stopped the Demon King, right?”

That was it. After receiving Seti’s support, he struggled to adapt to Gasol’s attitude.

Is it true that sometimes excessive humility goes against etiquette? As he nodded in accordance with etiquette, several Gasols looked thrilled.

Anyway, let’s walk to the restaurant for a while.

The two found portraits of past family heads and hostesses in the hallway leading to the restaurant.

Most of them were beautiful classical paintings, and in particular, the portrait of the Death Knight matriarch could be considered a model of knightly painting.

Stylish armor, the family’s treasured sword held high, and even a serious expression.

Except for the fact that the person involved was shaking his head in front of him, everything could be said to be a perfect picture.

-Hey, I guess it’s because the artist who has never seen me drew it based on his imagination. Isn’t it really cool? It feels good to get out of the house and die.

“… .”

-But my wife and daughter’s drawings are a bit different. As you can see, I don’t have such a pretty face. This is the face I will show to future generations, but this is… Um, what did they say… correction? Yes, you can’t cheat with corrections.

“… .”

Dawn and Seti pretended not to notice and ran away to the restaurant to avoid the death knight’s presence.

But beyond the mountains, aren’t other waiters welcoming the two at the restaurant?

-yeah! come! Stupid male bastards! Did you see it? Did you see it? You said they would definitely come to eat! Now, now, give me the money.

As soon as she sees the dawn, Belladiva begins to giggle and collect money from the surrounding Death Knights and the Mage Tower owner.

As I sat down at the table, looking around to see what all this was going on, the current Mtapju, who had been swindled the most money, came up to me and grumbled.

“No, if a man and woman are alone in a room at a vigorous age, is there only one more thing to do? She looks like a rabbit. She has already come down to eat… .”

Only then did Dawn realize what bet she was making and kicked the magic tower’s chair.

Karenin and Dumea Gasol, who saw this, jumped up in surprise… Well, Dawn didn’t care and ordered a meal.

There were 15 hours and 32 minutes left until an abnormal phenomenon occurred in western Hiraria.
