No. 305
Neriad reached out his hand towards me.
"Hurry."
As if I was bored, I stuck tightly to Serga.
“LeBlaine!”
"Hate!"
Whiing between me and Neriad, the wind seemed to blow.
I'm not the only one who can shout.
I also have one voice.
To be honest, it was incredibly scary.
The strongest forerunner, the Neriad, now called God, was truly a cluster of power.
Just standing in front of the Neriad, where fear seems to have come true, makes my hands and feet tremble.
The whites of the Neriad turned black, and the pupils turned red as if they had condensed blood. His lungs became tight and stuffy.
It was the moment when the blood was growing on the Temples.
“LeBlaine.”
When I hear Serga's sweet voice, pain goes away like a lie.
Neriad's bid was twisted.
“Is it like my superiority just because the power is returning, Serga. In front of me, you are like a candle in front of a storm.”
“Neriad.”
Serga healed me, hugged me and glanced at him.
“You are still a shepherd fallen in the desert.”
Neriad's eyes were distorted.
"What?"
“It hasn't changed a bit since the days when it wasn't hard to hide fear in anger.”
“Serga!”
Bang-!
Neriad shouted, and the blade-like wind shook horribly. Mina is awesome! Screaming and collapsed. Blood shines on her clothes, as if the skin was cut by the wind.
I closed my eyes tightly. However, no matter how much time passed, I didn't feel any pain.
The gentle air that started from Serga became the barrier and protected me.
I looked at him in amazement.
“Serga, your strength……”
The Serga I saw before was so weak that I could not resist the Neriad.
Far from protecting me, how did he come to this power, who was weak as if it would disappear anytime soon?
Serga laughed.
“I got it back. All thanks to you.”
"Yeah?"
“The power of God comes from the faith of the creature. You made me suspicious of the followers of the Neriad, and I was able to protect you because there were some who followed me.”
Neriad's bid was twisted.
“Do you believe that you can resist me with just a handful of faith? Serga, you're just a ridiculously fragile prey for me.”
He laughed at Serga, and he approached us.
“It’s ridiculously fragile, but why did you pant?”
When I said that, Serga, Neriad, and Mina looked at me at the same time.
I jumped from Serga's arms and looked at the Neriad.
“You said you lost Izzy by intercepting the power of God, but why can I talk to me in my life?”
“……”
“I couldn't handle the power of the God that I had captured and I gradually lost Izi, and I did so well in this life, right? Is not it? The power of God is disappearing due to the loss of people's faith, right? So, didn't you have reason?”
“……”
“Aren’t you scared because you have reason? Are you afraid? Is not it!"
“LeBlaine!”
When he unfortunately demonstrated the skill she had passed on from Emulin, the so-called “Hell's Muzzle,” Neriad's face was crumpled.
Neriad pressed his anger and closed his eyes tightly.
“It is a world arranged for you. Don't be fooled by Serga anymore and come back to me. To me, your only family.”
“Is my family in the Yuggentra Empire Islands?”
“The habit of catching horsetails doesn’t change at all.”
“If someone sees you, you think you raised me?”
As I was sarcastic, a peek laughing flowed from behind my back. It was Serga.
He came to me and hugged me once again. He said, touching my cheek tenderly.
“Isn't that a really strong soul, Neriad.”
“Serga.”
“Even if you have someone who is extraordinarily strong in front of you, you can never get down. I am not afraid of change, and even if I fall, I grow up with pain as a springboard.”
Serga whispered to me to the forehead.
“You make me not give up humans.”
The warmth spreads from where he touched. A pattern of blue light appeared on my forehead, and my body was getting richer.
“Go, dear child. I will be with you in your shadow.”
'Serga-nim...…’
At the same time, Neriad stretched out his hand towards Mina.
Her reddish pattern rose to Mina's forehead, and her black fog enveloped her.
“Neria-!”
She shouted like someone had something to say, but he disappeared from this space before me.
She gradually closes her eyes.
At the same time as the consciousness fell, the voice of Neriad came.
[I will never lose the world for you. Don't wait, LeBlaine. In the world of the shepherd.]
* * *
Ugh!
I jumped up and held my chest. My heart is beating as if it will burst.
Looking around, it was an altar.
Mina was also gasping, grabbing her collar.
"Miss!"
“Baby!”
The Temples and Dubbleed ran from both sides.
Zachari, who had spurred his stairs and jumped at once, hugged me and stepped back.
Mina was held by Jonathan the Paladin.
Zachari asked, holding Jonathan in check.
“Are you okay.”
"What happened? How unconscious have I been?”
“It's only a few seconds.”
Just a few seconds?
'I was fainting for quite some time the last time I went to God's space.'
The moment I was thinking about what happened, I heard Jonathan's shout.
“Baby!”
One side of Mina's face was distorted and was dripping, dripping, dripping like her filth.
Only then did the feeling come.
'Like that. It’s okay for me to go to God’s space through Mina as a medium.’
The other day, Neriad brought me into the divine space, but this time I forced Mina as a sacrifice to open the divine space.
That's why Mina is taking the penalty for entering the divine space alone.
Jonathan hurried around Mina and shouted.
“Retreating!”
If Mina's condition had reached that point, she would never have been able to fight.
The moment Dubbleed's knights were trying to chase the fleeing paladins, I shouted.
“Don’t chase! We are joining the chairman side right away!”
Fighting with the Paladins here was just before consumption.
The first priority was to find the chairman and find the real Trigon.
Zachari left me to another knight, led the troops on the altar side, and moved to the place where he had been signaled by the chairman.
I went back to Dubbleed.
My aunt supported me when I returned as a reflection.
“LeBlaine.”
“What about Youngji? What happened to Youngji?”
“The Imperial Army was put in and the troops of the Temples escaped. It seems that Prince Adrian convinced the emperor in time.”
"That's fortunate……”
I nodded and forced myself to move.
“Where are you going. You have to rest.”
I pretended to listen to my aunt and headed to the ward in my mansion.
'You have to hurry. Come on, come on!’
As I ran into the hospital room, I saw Leah sleeping as if she were dead.
I quickly pulled out Gremory's passage.
“I made my wish. Please lend me this skill now.”
The curtain in front of the window fluttered, and a semi-transparent Gremory appeared.
My aunt who came after me stared at Gremory, which was gradually fading.
“…… Sire."
[……]
“Your Majesty, I, I……”
The aunt couldn't talk to her and drew her head.
[My driver is kind like a fool.]
“……”
[I miss you.]
As my aunt slowly raised her head, a friendly line was drawn on Gremory's mouth.
“…… Me too, Elsa.”
Gremory disappeared completely and a hazy glow sank to the floor.
The aunt who collapsed on the floor said, “Elsa……” She muttered over and over like a doll with only one word broken.
While staring at my aunt blankly, someone grabbed my hand.
The warmth that is so familiar.
I held back my tears without turning my head.
"Why so… You are lean.”
“……”
“Where was the injury?”
“……”
“Did I keep it right?”
I bite my lips tightly. Tears flowed down her cheeks.
Oh, what should I do with you so stupid?
What can I return to you, who is only worried about me even after wandering around my eyes?
“…… Ostrich."
"Yeah."
"Ostrich."
"Ok."
On her knees as if she fell down, I cried sadly with my forehead to the back of her hand.
Casually, I tried to live brightly, but the world without her was like hell.
Leah, who saw me crying like a child, smiled sweetly.
“You always protected me. Ever since I was born.”
I stroked Leah's cheek and laughed forcibly.
“You desperately protects me, a small baby, and loves to read a terrified child.”
“…… miss?"
“You kept your promise with my mother, Leah.”
“……”
“It's me, Leah. The mother's daughter you kept.”
Leah's pupils shook thinly. My aunt also sat down and stared at me mindlessly.
“I am a baby bird.”
Somewhere, I heard the sound of changgang. The light returned to Leah's eyes, which had been half-clouded.
Lea's face was distorted in a mess. I hugged her and swore.
Now I will not hide from anyone that I am the strongest mother's child in the world.
It was time to let the world know that Dubbleed's daughter is back.
