Spring (1)

Looking back on the first time, it is sure to be a nostalgic memory. It is even more so when you see the warmth seeping through the white snow.

I tried moving my arms around while looking outside, reminiscent of the lyrics of a song, which felt like spring even though it was winter.

“It’s better than I thought.”

The arm that had been lost in the fight against Devron had returned.

I couldn’t even tell Rebecca anything because I was stuck on the spot.

Even if the arm moved violently, there was no strain on the body or anything like that.

However, my body was feeling it instinctively.

The fact that my left arm is glued with magic.

I looked down at my arm. It looked fine on the outside, but on the inside, it contains the magic energy emitted by Bishop Ipelsio and the heretical judges.

My body completely absorbed the remnants of the magic they left behind when they died.

And even if this magic is different from the magic in my body, I can control it.

What does that mean?

‘You can do it this way.’

When he retrieved the magician from his arm, his left arm, which was moving well, drooped.

As much as it was cut and restored, it is still attached, but it seems that I cannot move once the magic is recovered.

I have recovered my arm because of Magi, so should I regard this as a good thing, or should I call it a misfortune because my Magi has grown even more?

I decided to face the situation in front of me rather than questioning it.

‘The church must have gone mad.’

As long as the bishop, Ipelsio, the bishop who controls the heretical judges, is dead, it is a fully predictable uproar.

The fact itself has not been widely known yet, and rumors have not spread, so there is a high possibility that it will probably go away inside the denomination.

The fact that the priest belonging to the denomination, even the high-ranking bishop, made a contract with the demons is nothing good for the denomination.

Perhaps, Rebecca was called in for such a lockdown or various precautions.

That’s right, I guess.

I grabbed my left arm once and extended it. The first thing that came to mind was probably the Succubus Queen.

A demon who introduced himself as Isilen. It is also a high-class demon.

‘Is this the first time since Morax?’

In fact, except for Morax, it is the first high-level demon I have ever seen. Because I remember that the Demon King had descended before the advanced demons appeared in the original story.

Nevertheless, the fact that he encountered a higher-level demon.

In the end, it reminds me of the existence of the Demon King.

I frowned and clenched my fists.

A very small amount of black magic is oozing out of his fist.

The magic that burned the air like black flames disappeared immediately.

It doesn’t take much force to control such a small amount of magic. It’s a power you can control.

However, if I control a large amount of magic in a group, it seems that the characteristics of magic are transferred to my head.

It was the same in the winter season, and it was the same in this time of Bishop Devron and Ipelsio.

It is often said that excitement is needed to reduce pain or fear during battle, but the excitement caused by magic goes beyond that limit.

And anything over a certain level is poison.

The magic inside the body is nothing more than a double-edged sword.

“Then why do you keep using that double-edged sword?”

All of a sudden, Akshi was sitting across the window next to me.

She is staring at me with a sullen expression on her face.

I shrugged once and answered.

“How do you do it when things come up that you need to use it?”

“You’re so amazing, too. You’ve been cursed, and at the end of the day, Magi, all kinds of crises are coming.”

She groaned and came down from the window.

Then he tapped my arm and said.

“It’s a very strange body. Usually, if you have magic like this, you have to go crazy or die.”

“So it’s not a deadline, isn’t it?”

“Hey, it’s not really a time limit, it’s a dead body. Because the time limit itself doesn’t make sense?”

Akshi has been grumbling with my body ever since.

I took a sip, lightly ignoring her murmuring.

“Oh, come to think of it, you made a promise to me.”

“Promise? Oh.”

Then I saw that there was

image world.

Akshi was lying on the sofa next to me. Her gaze is directed towards the ceiling. A chandelier hangs from the ceiling.

“So what are you going to do? Do you want to learn now?”

“Even if you don’t learn it, you will learn it, right?”

“How did you know?”

At Akshi’s words, I let out a smirk and put down the teacup.

She also switched positions on the sofa.

“Have you seen my image before?”

“Dense forests and rocky mountains… isn’t it?”

“… Did it look like that?”

Akshi slurps her taste buds briefly. Her eyes were filled with sadness and longing. I shook my head to find the intent of her question.

Silence filled the room. In a suffocating atmosphere, I stared at Akshi.

She was also staring at me.

“… Where did you live?”

“It’s also where I died.”

And in her gaze, I found the answer.

life and death, soul and body. That brief lack is her image.

The place where she originally lived.

“Where are you?”

“what?”

“Where you used to live.”

Akshi closed her mouth for a moment. Her eyes tremble a little, though. I don’t know if I should say it’s unfortunate, but my eyes didn’t miss the move.

“Southern Empire. It is a mountain that will be more famous by the name of Kedrak to you.”

“Is that so.”

I’ve never heard of the name Kedrock. Naturally, the circumstances outside the academy never came from the original story, so all I have is a glance at the book.

So.

“A place I’ve never been to.”

“okay. Because the Duke of Pilasai is not very close to the South. Maybe I don’t even know Kedrock… .”

“Then let’s go together.”

“What?”

Akshi asked me with a bewildered expression on her face. I raised an eyebrow at her funny expression. For one moment, of course.

Immediately after controlling my expression, I coughed a couple of times and continued.

“I said let’s go together. Do you not like it?”

“Oh, no. It’s not like that, but it’s so random… .”

“Then that’s it.”

Saying that, I sat down on the sofa.

Someday, when I’m done with all of this, it wouldn’t be a bad idea to go on a trip with her.

No matter this or that, she is the person who helped me the most.

While imagining that, I glanced back to see Akshi blushing.

“Aksi?”

“Yes?”

“Didn’t you say you would tell me? What are you doing standing there?”

Where are you sick?

Since I made my body out of mana, I don’t think it’s meant to be a banter.

“You really are a bad bastard.”

“… ?”

**

Akshi closed her eyes and looked at Deron, who was sitting upright on the sofa.

What can be seen between his broad shoulders and well-groomed clothes is the traces of his fighting so far.

Scars from all kinds of wounds.

When I first saw him, he was just a nobleman with a little bit of energy and an unusual body.

After all, he has grown up like this and is showing the appearance of a full-fledged prosecutor.

Now, no one will deny that Deron Phylasia is a swordsman.

‘Oh, didn’t there have been before?’

Akshi coughed a few times, then lightly ran his finger across Deron’s neck. Deron’s inner surface becomes stronger and the contact time becomes longer.

Her hand follows Deron’s scar.

Deron’s body trembled a little as if it had not fully healed yet.

“Aksi. Don’t do weird things, just do it the way it is.”

“How do you know I’m doing weird things?”

“Even pretending to move is awkward. If you are trying to imitate the movements of the succubus queen, you have come a long way.”

“Shit.”

At Deron’s words, Akshi clicked his tongue and removed his fingers.

‘A quick-witted guy.’

And yet, why does he not notice what he is saying and act like such an idiot?

Maybe this is his strategy too? Deliberately pretending not to know?

Although he continued to think, Akshi finally came to one conclusion.

‘What am I thinking?’

Akshi let out a long sigh so that Deron could not hear him, and he used mana in his palm.

It’s not as good as the dragon’s days, but it’s a little more delicate and neat.

This is a technique that is possible because she has already lost it once and has also regained it.

Her mana carefully covered the room. At the same time, a world is created.

A huge cherry tree stands tall there. The world that Deron was imagining, his imaginary world.

A cherry blossom that hasn’t fully sprouted yet peeking through the branches waving like a willow tree.

Nevertheless, the shape of the flower is beautiful.

Art that reveals incompleteness is sometimes nobler and more fantastic than the finished work.

Even more so, it’s not ‘completed’ yet.

“… … .”

Akshi kept her mouth shut for a moment at the mystery.

Despite living as a dragon for a long time, I have never seen a place like this.

Imagery is one of the places that one remembers that he finally realized.

That meant that Deron had encountered such a place once before.

“Did it happen?”

“Yes… .”

Deron opened his eyes slightly and looked around. His eyes widened little by little, and then he gave a look of perplexity.

“Here… .”

That expression, even pretending to be a secret, looked like a secret, so Akshi didn’t bother to ask a question.

At the same time, the moon is a full moon that is utterly illuminating abominably.

It was dark, but the moonlight had not yet disappeared.

Unlike usual, Deron carefully drew his sword.

Akshi watched him. Aarondite’s black sword received the moonlight.

discharged as it is.

The method of receiving the power of the moon, revealing an aura, and using that power again is similar to that of Devron.

It is Deron’s talent to go further than simply using the moonlight.

In the midst of the fluttering sword strike, a flower bud that has not yet sprouted falls.

Over the hand that Akshi unknowingly reached out.

The cherry blossoms that haven’t bloomed yet are heinous.

He was looking straight at Akshi’s face.

She watched Deron’s sword dance with an indescribable expression on her face.

for a long time, for a very long time.
