Love Letter From The Future

645 – 8. Will (19)

What kind of existence is a ‘master’?

They themselves were monsters that caused cracks in the laws of physics. Those who can distort reality with imagery, use that power freely, and face legions single-handedly.

You can reach that level through shortcuts?

That kind of thing is impossible.

I should have done that, but there was one person that suddenly popped into my head.

‘Vampire’.

Despite the fact that she couldn’t fully use her body’s power, she combined barriers and magic to wield power that, albeit limited, was equivalent to that of a master.

Leto’s voice flows into my mind that has been dazed for a moment.

“I like it even for a moment… The moment you become a master, your promiscuous images will be integrated. Even if the realm returns, at least some stability will be secured.”

Enough to not die.

That was the most important thing. Because I was looking for a way to live.

The rest of the issues were secondary to survival. Well, it’s not too late to think about it once you live.

My face suddenly brightened at the appearance of the possibility of saving my life. Leto was no different, his hands trembling with slight excitement.

“Good, good… Ian, you go see Patriarch Eindel tomorrow.”

“On my own?”

“Then, should a stranger like me go and talk? ‘Tell me something about why your son died’? Don’t bullsh*t, dig up information somehow. You’re also the main target of the Dark Church, so you can pretend it’s to prepare for mysticism.”

In just a few seconds, plans for the future were being made one after another.

Although Leto was drunk, he didn’t forget to warn me.

“Instead, you shouldn’t say this anywhere… Humanity’s hero prolongs his life by using forbidden magic? The shock will be great. Of course, it would be a major weakness politically.”

Is it time to talk about political weaknesses?

For a moment I had these doubts, but first I nodded. I’ve never been hurt by listening to Leto’s words.

The night of drinking like that was getting deeper.

*

The 5th Princess of the Empire, Shien.

As she lay face down on the table, she went through her memories. She said today that Ian was drunk, and that she had a slip of the tongue because she had her best friend in front of her.

If she had been aware of the existence of the princess, she wouldn’t have done that.

However, the girl soon disappeared from their cognition, and thanks to that, they could be heard.

‘I haven’t heard from Seria since she left, what about Emma? Above all, Celine…… !’

Stay still with your eyes closed and lay down important words.

Seria, Emma, Celine.

Who is the most disparate character among the two?

I had nothing to ask myself. A woman who was not directly involved in this case, but was mentioned by Ian with no less importance.

Shien’s pounding heart did not shout.

She said that he should go find her commoner girl.

The night of different dreams is deepening.

As we cleared away the clouds that blocked the moonlight.

**

“Oh, the moonlight…….”

A small exclamation escaped from the lips of the knight who was walking in the clearing. When Arus’s eyes, which had been hiding in the clouds for the whole time, revealed themselves, light settled like fog on the dark land.

At best, it didn’t even impress her fellow knights who were by her side.

My colleague, naturally lacking in sensitivity, said with a laugh.

“What’s wrong with only moonlight? Your sensitivity has become more sensitive these days.”

“Is that so?”

From noble mtl dot com

When the knight tilted his head, the colleague immediately nodded. As if this wasn’t the first time or two.

However, it seemed that even the reason was not difficult to guess.

“Even loneliness burns. How long ago did you say you had a daughter?”

The knight couldn’t help but smile bitterly at his colleague’s words.

It was exactly as he said.

The article, who recently had a daughter, was in the midst of missing his family. He missed the little bloody face so much that he wished someone could relay the image of her daughter, even though she was only a few months old.

But what can I do?

The continent was suffering from an unprecedented threat, and the knight’s mission was not unrelated to this.

Academy’s Destroyed Forest.

In this place where the ‘Great Witch’ and the ‘Vampire’ collided head-on, ominous magic was flowing everywhere. It meant that there were still remnants of the barriers set up by the blood relatives of the vampires.

Knight and his companions were dispatched to eliminate it. Even though this work has already been in progress for several months, it was even surprising that the remnants of the barrier had not been completely removed.

How did he sneak into the academy and complete such preparations?

Even though the knight got goosebumps, he was diligently searching for fear of running into them. The gloomy atmosphere of the clearing seemed to hide danger somewhere.

Of course, the thought was not long.

It was because the colleague pokes the knight with his elbow and jokingly asked.

“Can I show you the portrait too?”

“Have you seen it before?”

“It’s because you look more like Jesu than you, dude. I’m starting to get confused just by looking at your face!”

Seeing his colleague giggling while doing so, the knight couldn’t help but put his hand to his waist.

In the pocket was a precious portrait of the family. It was deliberately miniaturized, and the knight always cheered up by looking at the picture when he was struggling.

But why?

The knight’s hand, which should have been rummaging through his pockets, grazed the air. The moment he looked down with a puzzled expression.

No.

Pockets, legs, no lower body.

The knight’s eyes blankly turned to the side, and there.

I could see the bone pain of a colleague flying in the air with a smile on his face. Staying completely detached from his neck.

“Ugh, ah…… !”

“Shh.”

Pak.

The bloody whip pierced both wide open cheeks and tightened his neck. When the fear-soaked knight’s eyes turned to his back, there were surprisingly enchanting golden eyes.

Black hair, even white skin that seemed to deny it.

The woman smiled terribly beautiful, she said.

“Now, I just escaped… don’t you have any strength? Let’s make a ‘deal’.”

The knight struggled and tried to free himself from the bloody whip that gripped his throat, but it was impossible. Because he had already lost the lower half of his body for a long time.

If it wasn’t for the disciplined knight, he wouldn’t have been able to survive.

Facing her eyes wide open, the woman smiled.

“You are giving me your blood and your soul. Instead, in return…….”

The woman’s white fingers slowly covered her man’s eyelids.

“I will give you the dream you most wished for.”

Her man’s head bent weakly with her sweet whisper.

However, his eyes held a calm light, as if he had returned to his family’s arms.

It was a story that had nothing to do with the girl.

A dark red haze rises from the corpse. The girl naturally stood in the middle of the haze, tidying up her messy clothes and looking up at her sky.

“Ah, I almost died… Damn ‘jealousy’ year. Wouldn’t it be nice if you died quietly?”

As time passed, the bodies of the two knights were drying up. On the other hand, the color of her girl’s skin gradually returned and her scars healed.

Then the girl’s lips draw a twisted arc.

“But, what… ….”

The girl’s eyes deepened as she looked up at the moon. The moon was reflected in her retinas, but it was difficult to guess where her eyes were actually headed.

A low chant strikes the silent night.

“It’s not too late.”

Pass-

The corpses, which were slowly losing their vitality, eventually turned to ashes with all their armor. The girl paid no attention to the fluttering ashes.

She just stretched out and shouted toward the sky.

“Ah, I want to make a child with my brother!”

The night was getting deeper as well.

There are still two days until Celine’s attack.

**

Panting, Emma opened her eyes.

Her whole body was damp with cold sweat. The sticky moisture soaking the blanket and pillow made her feel uncomfortable. Even so, Emma couldn’t get out of the blanket right away.

First of all, it was because he needed time to calm his pounding heart.

Nightmare.

Yeah, it was a nightmare again. A dream that has been holding on to Emma for several days already.

It felt as if I had been bitten by a vicious predatory fish. There was no such thing as a pleasant memory among the endlessly emerging memories.

Cynicism, despair, resentment.

There was only the fear that she might harbor it in her heart. Emma squeezed her eyes shut and shook her head, forcing her limp body up and out of her bed.

Drinking cold water, washing your face with cold water, and even washing your sweaty body.

After going through a series of procedures, Emma was finally able to regain her composure. It was a time to understand why the priests cleanse their bodies before important ceremonies.

However, there was a scene that never left her Emma’s head.

I think I saw Ian…….

Why does Ian appear in such an ugly dream? He even looked a bit strange.

Also the voices she heard as she struggled and regained consciousness.

‘Isn’t it ready yet?’

‘Not yet.’

‘No, it’s okay.’

The pupils that were visible beyond the dim vision.

‘For a little while, it’ll be fine.’

Emma’s eyelashes trembled as she recalled the nightmare again. The dream, similar to the one before, but somehow disparate, always ended by looking into those eyes.

After tidying up her clothes, Emma sighed and cleared her breath. She just wanted to get rid of the terrible dream.

Her best bet would be to meet her beloved lover.

Soon, a bitter smile appeared on Emma’s lips. It was because she was such a great person that her commoner girl Emma couldn’t even afford to take up her time.

He must be busy in his own way.

Around the time she was trying to soothe the lingering feelings of not being able to shake it off even if she brushed it off.

Smart.

The sound of knocking on her door from early morning caught her Emma’s gaze.

Who are you?

Such doubts were soon resolved.

“This is me.”

Because I introduced myself before the other person even opened the door.

“The 5th Princess of the Empire, Shien.”

It was a rather gloomy voice.
