Chapter 353: Chapter 353

TL: Zimmings

‘All the temples have been destroyed!’

The temple, which was a symbol of faith, disappeared and made him lost the power of God.

Neliard, who holds his forehead, stared fiercely at Chul-soo, who was shaking.

As he was about to make a barrier, Johann, Henry, and Isaac ran quickly.

Henry and Isaac simultaneously attacked Neliard’s front and back. In the gap, Johann grabbed Chul-soo’s back and took him away from Neliard.

Neliard held onto Henry’s forearms before he fell down. Henry’s arm was seen rotting under his sleeve.

“Gremory!”

I shouted and Gremory moved.

She came near Henry, after being thrown away by Neliard. Henry’s arm, which had been rotting, returned to its original state.

‘Is only Chul-soo’s attack working?’

As I was thinking about that, Isaac gritted his teeth and ran again.

“What are you doing to my brother!”

Isaac’s sword dug into Neliard’s abdomen.

Neliard blocked Isaac’s sword with a barrier.

Clang-!

A sharp friction sound rang out.

‘Isaac is dealing with Neliard, right?’

Why?

Why can’t Neliard attack Isaac like he did to Henry?

Juliet used magic to support Isaac.

Juliet’s barrier came over Neliard’s head.

At that moment, Neliard attacked Isaac. Just before the darkness hit him, Isaac managed to got out.

‘……!’

I took a deep breath.

“It’s magic!”

As I shouted, my allies looked at me.

“Neliard attacks using the allies’ magical power!”

Juliet and Henry looked at Neliard as if enlightened.

Johann shouted.

“Isaac, back off! Archers!”

Isaac quickly got out of the vicinity of Neliard. Archers who were supporting from the rear pulled their bow.

Arrows poured out as if it were raining.

Neliard spread the barrier to block the arrow, but his barrier was not as powerful as before.

Wherever the arrow hit, cracks formed.

‘More. A little more!’

Boom-!

The barrier was broken.

I picked up the bow that had fallen from an ally’s hand and aimed at Neliard.

Suddenly, my ancient memories came to mind.

Neliard’s voice, who was teaching bow to the young ancient Leblaine, lingered in my ears.

[Come on, Leblaine. Pull it.]

[I don’t want to learn archery…. I don’t want to know how to kill people…….]

[It’s not a way to kill people. It’s a way to protect yourself.]

[But… … .]

[What you’re learning is not just a bow, It’s how you don’t give up. Leblaine, I want to teach you how not to run away.]

On top of that memory, the image of the Dubblede family who taught me bows in this life was overlapping

[Like this. Huh? You idiot, pull like this!]

[You’re so loud, Isaac. Do you think Leblaine is an animal like you? It takes time to get used to it. Now, Leblaine. You have to hold on tight. So that it doesn’t shake.]

[Ahh! What if she shoot me!]

[Sorry, Isaac… … .]

[Let’s just do magic that you’re good at. What’s the point of learning this? Before you shoot an arrow at the enemy, we’ll probably annihilate the enemies first.]

[Isaac, you idiot. I’m not just learning the bow. I’m learning how to not give up!]

I bite my lip.

He taught Meria not to run away.

I didn’t forget the teachings even after I became a new me.

At that moment, Neliard’s eyes met mine.

Whoosh!

The arrow that cut through the air hit Neliard’s chest.

“Ugh…!”

Neliard staggered back while holding onto his chest, shouting at me.

“Why!”

“…….”

“Why are you always like this, Leblaine!”

The bloody shout echoed through the sky.

Hong-hae and Juliet, Jin, East and West, my brothers and our allies groaned while holding their ears.

It was as if a dreadful voice gripped our heart and shook us.

I looked at Neliard with my back straight and not backing down.

Neliard’s two legs flowed down like black tears, and his skin melted.

“I arranged a better future for you, my beloved.”

“…….”

“To protect you, I dreamed of a world where children like you did not suffer. Look, Leblaine. How festering this world created by Serga.”

“…….”

“Remember how you suffered in this world!”

The video tool floating in the sky reflected the falling god.

***

People from all over the world gathered in front of it.

The temple collapsed, and the world where Neliard’s blessings had disappeared was devastated.

Earthquake on the ground, tsunami on the sea. Heaven and earth fluctuated.

The most serious was the Wigentra Empire, where Neliard’s darkness spread out everywhere.

Neliard’s darkness has crossed the system. Half of the empire was gone and the people went on a hectic evacuation route.

Javelin Ariege and Viscount Noanoke, chairman of the Dubblede Senate, shouted.

“Gather in the square! Float a boat and move to the sea!”

“Throw away your luggage! There are only children, the elderly, and people you can bring! The elderly and the weak start boarding through teleportation scroll, regardless of their status!”

Dubblede’s vassals, including Dubos and Veronica, came running towards them.

The chairman asked Veronica, who was pale.

“Is the scroll secured?”

“There are only 31 scroll left in the estate.”

“Would it be difficult to make more?”

“There are no more elsa trees. After destroying the temple, most of the elsa trees lost their power. Is there nothing left in the capital?”

“Yes…….”

Then we will reduce the number of movements as much as possible – what about the Vallua’s people? They have no master, so they’ll be in a hurry.”

Viscount Dubos said,

“Seria has been sent there. The problem is that there is no scroll that can move them…”

The vassals looked at the chairman and Javelin.

“Vallua’s Territory wastaken by Dubblede, but it is managed by the Imperial Palace. Above all, will the empire hand over Vallua management to us who will become independent? It’s not our land. We can’t afford to take care of them.”

“If that’s the case, are you going to let all the people of Vallua die?”

“You must decide!”

Javelin grabbed her forehead.

There are only 31 scroll left.

It was not enough to move Dubblede’s people.

At that moment, the magic tool in the square flashed.

A child, who was holding her mother’s skirt, shouted.

“It’s the lady!”

People’s eyes were drawn to the tool.

It was the same in all parts of the empire and in other countries as well.

Those gathered in front of the scene looked at Leblaine, who faced Neliard.

Neliard shouted at Leblaine in a terrible way.

[To protect you, I dreamed of a world where children like you did not suffer. Look, Leblaine. How festering this world created by Serga.]

[…….]

[Remember how you suffered in this world!]

Marquis Shuheil and Edgar Shuheil.

Count Brivi and his people.

Everyone who had met Leblaine looked silently at Neliard.

Neliard said,

[What did those people who made you a child of fate do to you?]

[…….]

[They’re the ones who named you the child of fate, and they’re the ones who persecuted you and pointed at you for being fake.]

[…….]

[Is there anyone in this world who has not made you miserable?]

[…….]

[They give you a duty, and if you don’t meet their expectations, they’ll bite and criticize you!]

People were startled.

When Mina descended, those who called her a fake and criticized her gulped.

Neliard’s mouth twisted.

[On the subject of pointing fingers at others and pouring out malice, they demand high morality from others. If they can’t stand it or attack other with their mouth, they’ll laugh at them because they’re weak.]

[…….]

[They easily blame people who don’t help others. Those who have worked hard to win were able to do so because they were born different from them, so they point fingers and get jealous.]

[…….]

[Because there is desire in the world, selfishness exists.]

[…….]

[So we need to get rid of it. So that they don’t dream of excessive things in the first place!]

[…….]

[But how do you bear things like that?]

[…….]

[Why are you, the one who suffered from them, stopping me!]

Neliard screamed.

Leblaine looked at him silently.

[I know. I hate them too. I’m a human too and I hate them. I was in so much pain.]

[…….]

[But there are people among them who held my hand.]

[What?]

Leblaine smiled faintly.

[There is Jean-Marc Noanoke, who swore allegiance to a child who had nothing and trusted her.]

The chairman’s eyes fluttered.

[There is Seria who followed me.]

Seria clenched her skirt tightly.

[Zachary, who protects me, also Wale.]

Zachary and Wale were silently watching.

[There is an aunt who told me that even if I hate the temple to death, there is no sin in the child.]

Javelin bit her lip.

[There are my brothers who accepted me. There’s a dad who didn’t forget me. There are also people of the territory who say that I am their master and cherish me]

[Leblaine… … .]

[I will hate people to death, but I still want to protect them. Because there are people who love me.]
