Love Letter From The Future

4. Rynella’s fate is decided by Rynella (42)

Before running into the missing people in the woods, I rummaged through my pockets.

It was a space expansion bag that the princess had given her as a gift the other day.

Even items with slightly increased capacity cost hundreds of gold. The pouch the princess gave as a gift was a high-end item, and even if it didn’t work, it would cost thousands of gold.

Maybe it would exceed 10,000 gold.

To think that one of these pockets was worth Emma’s life made her feel strange about money.

In addition, the pouch the princess gave was not only made of pure white leather, but also embroidered with imperial patterns with gold thread.

Taking this into account, the actual value could have been higher.

Although it was nothing other than a practical tool as long as it was already in my hand.

Of course, the pouch the princess gave her was worth the high price.

Even after putting in dozens of bottles of potion, emergency food, and drinking water, there was still an empty space left.

And among the numerous storage items, there was one item that I was paying attention to.

These were the potions that Emma had given me.

Different types of potions had different effects. Emma’s new potions were particularly useful as they had two effects at the same time.

Besides, there is one more thing I asked of Emma.

After fiddling with the medicine bottle for a long time, I turned my gaze to the presence I felt next to me. Suddenly, a fresh scent resembling spring came from the woman who came next to me.

I couldn’t understand her intentions, so I had to look at her with suspicious eyes.

No, let alone the intention, even the name of the woman was unknown.

I heard in the past that on the day she was chosen as a saint, she abandoned her orphaned name. The reason was also unknown.

Was it to hide his humble origins, or was it to prepare for a new beginning?

Even now, it was an opponent whose feelings could not be penetrated. It was futile to judge what had happened a long time ago.

However, I asked a question in case there was something important going on.

“… … why?”

“Um, just? I want to feel like taking a walk.”

Huh, I was dumbfounded and laughed.

It was unknown what kind of monster lurked in this forest. The Magic Corps of the Rainella family was conducting an exploration separately from us.

In other words, it meant that if we encountered an enemy, we had to overcome it with our own strength.

Even though they had the means to contact the enemy as soon as they discovered it, it did not change the fact that their lives might be in danger.

‘Walking’ in such a severe situation.

However, the saintess only put on a sad expression at my collapsed reaction.

She tiptoed over and let a heated whisper in my ear.

“… … You made fun of the girl’s body, and it doesn’t even make you feel like going for a walk?”

“No, that… … !”

It’s your fault too.

Such words soared to the throat, but the male and female chastity did not weigh the same. Of course, if I had to blame it like that, I would only become trash.

It was a composition that could never be won no matter what the reason was.

Eventually, I had no choice but to let out a deep sigh.

“… … You can do whatever you want.”

Only then did the saintess put her arms around me with a satisfied smile.

I felt a soft, elastic feel on my arm. As always, it wasn’t a bad feeling.

The saintess became proud and whispered to me again.

“If you listen carefully, I’ll let you touch me next time.”

Maybe not a saint, but a prostitute.

After crossing the frontline last time, the saintess had no particular sense of distance from me. Now, everyone doubted the relationship between me and the saintess.

Even my mother, a devout Catholic, was looking suspiciously at me, so I was done talking.

When I was worried about causing unnecessary misunderstandings, the one who saved me was a girl who was known for being bad-mouthed.

“… … hey, udder Will you stop falling?”

His voice was full of displeasure.

It was a small sound, but if you listened a little, you would be able to discern what it meant. Surprised, I turned to Elsie-senpai.

Even the Rainella family could not openly insult the saintess.

The saintess was no different from the symbol of the Celestial Church. When she started weaving under the pretext of ‘blasphemy’, there was little that the saintess could not do.

But to curse the saintess in such a public place.

Even considering Elsie’s rough temper, it was a careless move. Fortunately, the only people who understood this were the saintess and me.

Of course, the saintess could not stand it and cried.

“Can’t a pet dog be like a pet dog? Right now, I’m having a human-to-human conversation with Ian… … .”

“Woof woof.”

Senior Elsie imitated the barking of a dog mockingly, then smiled coldly.

“Master, run away. That girl is so bad… The breast is big, but the inside is narrow. Besides, she’s insidious, a lustful bitch who only knows how to flirt with her body.”

“… … Dog barking is bothering you today, Ian? I think we need more dog training.”

The voice of the saintess as she gnashed her teeth and spat out, was extremely bloody.

After the last incident, the relationship between the two was getting worse and worse. Of course, it was not a relationship that a colleague who had to go back to back should pursue.

Even now, isn’t the battle ahead?

The moment I was about to say a word with a sigh.

“… … Brother Ian.”

One word from Celine caught my attention.

It wasn’t just me. Everyone looked at Celine, and soon followed Celine’s gaze.

A tense, tense voice was announcing danger.

The saintess and Elsie-senpai also stopped talking and looked straight ahead.

Dozens of people stood there like ghosts.

There is not even a slight movement. I couldn’t even feel the trace of life, so I had the illusion that there was a tombstone in the shape of a person.

“villager?”

That was the impression the saintess let out as she tilted her head.

They were ‘village people’ who could be seen everywhere, dressed in shabby clothes and with ordinary appearance. However, there was a reason Celine’s face turned pale when she saw them.

It was because she also had memories of shooting around the Percus Territory with me when she was young.

“… … Doris, Marie?”

At Celine’s murmur, dozens of humans slowly raised their heads.

Those eyes were stupid or naive. As if the calling had given them life, emotion settled on the faces of a man and a woman.

The two looked around with puzzled expressions.

“Do, young master? Miss Celine? what the hell is this… … .”

“Hey, what are these people doing!”

I was speechless.

They were Doris and Marie in my memory.

Doris, who made Aunt Yona upset by being so troublesome, and Marie, who likes apples, asked if it was okay to build an orchard in one corner of the estate.

However, it was clear that the two were not normal.

Not only did she stand there blankly in the first place, but, crucially, Marie was already dead.

in Sarah’s hands.

Marie, now in front of me, was the second. I slowly raised my hand.

It was correct to give instructions.

had to kill That alone was salvation for them.

However, the mouth did not come off.

The two of them staggered back towards me, looking terrified. The two looked at me and pleaded.

“Do, Bocchan! Who are these people?! Why am I in a place like this… … .”

“Boo, I was definitely on my way home!”

The party was waiting for my horse to fall.

It was a trap with a high probability. They were Mitram’s test subjects, and they will attack us.

It was bad taste.

What if those two aren’t test subjects?

Somehow, even if Mitram had left the original copy intact, and had pushed it in front of me, there was only one conclusion I could draw.

“… … All ready for battle!”

Each blade makes its own sound and reveals itself.

The saintess and Elsie-senpai naturally moved to the center, forming a tight square, and me and Seria stood in the vanguard. Celine guarded the rear in case of an unexpected attack.

Doris and Marie screamed in surprise as the blade pointed at them.

“Kyaa!”

“Do, young master… Why are you! This is Doris!”

It was me who drew the sword last.

And I was wondering what to say.

In the end, I had no choice but to bite my lip.

“… … Marie, Doris.”

I let out a painful breath and pointed my sword at them.

“It is my fault.”

What could a nobleman who couldn’t protect Young Ji-min have to say?

Marie’s and Doris’s faces were discolored to the point where they couldn’t be any more pale.

The time when the two of them were about to beg for something.

“Do, Bocchan! What kind of cow, lee, lee, lee… Lii Yii Profit?! Whoa, whoa, whoa?!”

The bodies of the men and women showed bizarre movements as their spines snapped and bent.

His arm was bent at a reverse joint, and blood gushed out. The tattered body gradually heated up and was dyed red.

“Oh, it hurts! It hurts, it hurts, it hurts! help me! Help me, Doryonniiiim!”

“Hehe, that… Do, Doryenniyim… My, Jebaar!”

Suddenly, the vertebrae in their necks snapped, and the heads of the two fell with a rattle.

Blood dripped from his head, which had barely clung to it by relying on skin and flesh.

It was bloody tears.

Blood was leaking from Marie and Doris’ eyes.

“I will curse… … .”

“I can’t forgive, I can’t forgive… … .”

And with the sound of the joints fitting together, dozens of human bodies began to make angular movements.

As if it was contagious, the eyes of the test subjects were stained red. A cry peculiar to monsters who lost their reason flowed from their mouths.

I swallowed the painful feeling as I took a deep breath.

“… … A f*cking baby, directing. ”

The beasts howled and ran.

I pulled a hatchet from my waistband and threw it.

Pak, pak, and the heads of the two test subjects exploded, and pieces of meat and bones splattered in all directions. I whirled around and kicked the ground while the hatchet bounced up.

“Light, overflow!”

With that one word from senior Elsie, the magic power of the air boiled at once.

The pure white electric charge covered the ground and made a popping noise.

eyesight flickers

My sword drew a sharp straight line in the incandescent world.

Without even a sense of resistance, the test subject pierced through the middle of the chest screamed. However, I immediately twisted the blade and joined the sword path horizontally.

A shockwave swept across the side with a booming sound.

Blood dripped and added color to the pure white vision. As the light went out, the vivid red light approached more intensely.

One of them must have been Marina Doris’ blood.

The test subject whose chest was cut in half could not overcome the anti-elasticity and leaned to the other side. The test subject I dealt with earlier had a self-destruct function, so I blew off its head without forgetting.

Breaking and killing is so simple.

But why does it take so much effort to protect it?

I gritted my teeth and took out the parchment I had in my pocket.

It was a scroll on which contact magic was recorded. As soon as it was torn, the Rainella family’s magic corps would come running to this place.

And right before I clear the enemies around and tear the scroll.

Pak, something thrown out forcefully crumpled the scroll.

Blood ran down the road. I followed the blood trail and was able to realize what had been thrown at me.

It was an arm.

One of the subjects forcibly tore off my arm and threw it at me.

That test subject was in the form of Doris.

My brain heated up with the excitement of the battle.

Doris let out a grotesque voice as if scratching her vocal chords with a sly smile.

“… … See you again, Ian Perkus.”

Yuren was right.

The Dark Priest was here.

Doris’ body collapsed like a doll with a thread cut, revealing a figure wearing a black hood standing behind it.

It was hidden in the shadows, so I couldn’t see his face. Only ebony-like hair caught my eye.

And those lips with a twisted smile.

I was about to jump at him at any moment, but I had no choice but to stop.

It was because I saw the color of the burning eyes inside the hood.

It is golden.

“As promised, your destiny has come.”

Even at the woman’s voice that was thrown with a chuckle, I had no choice but to stand there blankly.

Golden eyes in black hair.

That was Mitram’s hue in this world.
