Expecting to Fall into Ruin, I Aim to Become a Blacksmith

A day before the decision.

Early in the morning, one woke up early and left the house quietly.

The sky is still dim. With the exception of this area, Helanese territory is currently encroached on by curses in a progressive form. It's natural to be dim because the sun isn't up yet, but this dimness also seems to me to be due to the curse. That's all, my head was full of curses.

I still haven't finished my farewell greeting with Eliza. I haven't been able to talk much since then. But this could have been a good idea. If we say goodbye clearly, we should be hard on each other. Such a half-way break up could have been the easiest form of guidance...... With that in mind, I proceeded through the woods.

Grandpa Moran and Mr. Petal will still be asleep. I'm sure they're bothering me a lot. I think Eliza's asleep, too. She will have complicated thoughts, too. Neither do I. I think too much, my head is going to flake. But I can concentrate on that just because I've decided to do it. In terms of holding my head with troubles, I may be the easiest.

As we went down the road, the hard ground gradually turned into a soaked ground. I was on my way to Curse Swamp. I didn't rush to see how things were going.

... I'm going to activate the ultimate magic by myself today.

It's better as early as possible, and the ultimate magic is already complete. All the steps are tapping into my head. All we had to do was wait for the date. That date was also decided by us on our own, so there's nothing ultimately magically wrong with breaking it on our own.

Because I was walking in a blur remembering all sorts of thoughts, ”I could get to the swamp of curses sensibly quickly.

A vast swamp, spreading in front of you.

The black marsh covers one side and is awesome as if mud is sucked into the ground constantly trying to swallow something. By the way, there was bubble, but that looked like it was emanating from the swamp satisfactorily, like after swallowing something.

What a creepy place. Magic power. More than this, it's purely creepy. If you step into the swamp, it will be the last time you will be taken to the Bottomless Swamp to the afterlife. The fact that people created this place was heartfelt horrible.

I lowered my back once and tried to feel the magic flowing through this place.

There was another horror that was different from what I saw with my eyes. The scene is full of powerful, lukewarm dark magic. I can feel greedy malice craving everything and wanting to drink everything up.

It wasn't that long ago that the curse came back to life. But this ”Marsh of Curses” has absorbed incredible vitality in this short period of time. Although the ultimate magic is complete, the momentum is still growing.

I made up my mind once now.

Today, I exercise my ultimate magic to settle with this swamp of curses.

Grandpa Moran, Mr. Petal, and Eliza think a good day is tomorrow.

In front of them, exercising ultimate magic is kind of, I miss them so much. Being watched must be comforting, but the loneliness that far exceeds it will strike at the same time.

Don't do this the day before to keep them from grieving. I decided to do it the day before because I miss myself and it's hard to figure it out. If you're this selfish, you'll forgive me, won't you?

Speaking of which, the first Helan also exercised his ultimate magic by himself the day before. I suddenly remembered that now.

I'm sure your ancestors felt this way, too. Not for those of us who miss his death. He couldn't stand the loneliness himself.

After his death, he brought much happiness, and many people never forgot him. This time, even half of him, so I hoped such a future awaited me.

I stopped thinking about it.

He lifted one hand mightily into heaven, releasing all his magic.

Red light gathers in the palms. A dim area was illuminated by a powerful light.

The light gradually had heat and converged once. Immediately, the light swelled and swelled to a size ten times larger than earlier. At the same time, there was a strong gust of wind around. It was dry wind. It was as comforting as blowing all the shade around here.

A large vortex began to spin, subsiding in his abdomen.

This one also started to have powerful magic and heat. The rotation of the great vortex gradually but becomes more active. The strain on my body was already so great that I wanted to fall and rest right now.

The "Marsh of the Curse” also reacted to this great magical movement. As if it resonates, so much magic moves as it was swirling into the land.

Finally, I put myself on the battlefield.

I took a deep breath and closed my eyes.

Free all, really not a drop of the last magic left in your body.

The light of the raised hand intensifies more, and the vortex in the abdomen spins even faster.

I'm ready.

Ultimate magic has just woken up here.

"In the name of Kurli Helan. Live in my body, a great swirl of ancient magic. Now is the time to unleash that great power and devour the dark magic '

Conditions for exercising were in place and the chant was over.

Now, will my body die first, or will the magic of the curse that sleeps at the bottom of the curse swamp be drank first...

Magic and magic collide, and the wind blows from the ground with its impact. As the first clash came to an end, the Great Vortex began to inhale the magic of the curse. Gradually, my belly vortex is starting to show its true value.

As I inhaled the curse, my body became overburdened. The sickness or nausea strikes me. I feel as if my body weight has doubled. My arms were already heavy as lead and had hardened.

There is no pain. I'm so scared of that again, but that's why I could even stand it.

Until I drink this curse, I will never die! Once, I made up my mind.

Neither the curse nor the vortex will try to show you the bottom.

I was made to understand how immense I was fighting against being. I'm the only one suffering, and these monsters are just grinning...... When my heart was weak, I thought that.

In a moment of stiffness, I had a nosebleed. It wasn't just the senses, there was definitely damage to the body.

Activate the ultimate magic and everything will be resolved. That's not what I thought, but I didn't even know it was so hard.

Legs, even for a moment, are going to be frustrated and unable to stand up again as they are.

The status quo is too spicy for me to think about and get over the fun stuff. Consciousness is going to fly. How the hell did the first Helan survive this predicament? After all, you were a hell of a person, and after the pain that only I could share, I found out how awesome he was.

I don't know what to do anymore. I just endure it, but that's tough.

Already! Anything happen that would make me leave again!? Please, something!

"Dear Kurli..."

I thought I heard Eliza.

I was surprised by this. Just a little bit, but I felt the pain in my body had eased. Until this time, she has saved me.

But this area, surrounded by storms and intense heat, is no longer an easy place for people to get close. Unfortunately, that's not her voice right now. This is an illusion I made up.

"Dear Kurli!

A loud voice echoed in his ear, at the same time on his cheek, very dull, but twisted pain ran.

"Oh, yeah, Eliza!?

Why is Eliza even in the place? Fantasy? Why is she always on your side when you want to see her, when you want her to be!?

"Dear Kurli! It's punishment for doing something unsolicited."

I got my cheeks twisted hard again. I don't feel much pain anymore...... That's what I missed.

"Eliza, it would be dangerous if you were here. Magic is rampant."

"If you're Master Kurli, I thought you might. I was wondering if you would carry it all on your own and go far. I won't tolerate that! I'm here, too."

"No. I don't want to get you involved!

"No, let me get involved!

"Until such a time, what are you so polite about! You can still sing a glorious life in the world ahead. You don't have to give up your life here!

"That should be the same for Master Kurli! I'm not going anywhere."

That said, Eliza jumped into her chest and hugged my body tight and tight. Now I have no power to resist. So much so that even the sensation she had embraced was slightly felt. Besides, I didn't even want to resist.

"If I were here, I'd be dead"

"Fine."

I was so scared to get her involved, but at the same time it's about her being on my side. I was so relieved. I was also convinced that I would not lose any more pain. If Eliza will stay like this until the end......

"What Master Kurli carries, divide it for me too"

"... ok"

She won't be able to escape this scene anymore. Then I want to stay with you until the end.

"Good. A world without Kurli is like a stew without potatoes."

That was the last time I heard her voice.

The light that was gathering in his palms ran up to heaven, creating a single red line. A major vortex entered the final phase of activity. The area is surrounded by shockwaves, and the trees of the woods are knocked down.

The great vortex popped out of his belly and manifested itself in the world.

That was the last time, the Great Vortex drank the curse and disappeared at the same time.

That was the last footage that caught my eye.

The curse is gone. Confirm that for whatever it is and I wanted to die. But speaking of greed, I wanted to see Eliza, who was supposed to be on my side at a glance after that, but that wasn't quite right.

Kurli Helan's path apparently ended here --.

The world after the Great Vortex and the Marsh of the Curse could not disappear.

The sandstorm that covered Helan's sky disappeared, and miracles began to occur on the land that was dry. From the dead soil of the bread grows one, and another and a flower, and spreads its petals in full bloom.

Such a miracle ensued, and only a few weeks after that dry land, the swamp of curses was extinguished, a land richer in nature was born there than in the previous Helanese territories. Water flows down the river and birds visit. Bugs and fish are now visible. And the people who had to leave the land of Helan also returned. Besides, there was no worries 300 years later, genuine, rich land there.

I don't know who did it, but rumors spread quickly among the people. That he would be the only one.

This event did not take that long until the world called it the "miracle of Kurli”. But then the person everyone has been waiting for, Kurli, never shows up. Keep the message off, and I haven't heard from you. A new Lords' Hall was built so that whenever he could return. It also served as a symbol of reconstruction, but in the end, Kurli never returned while people kept waiting. The hall continued to be an empty space where no one lived.
