Episode 355:
A solid ice castle that doesn’t even let in a single ray of sunlight. In this world where neither the movent of life nor the flow of ti has stopped, Lewis was a harsh tyrant.
He accumulated trendous energy by collecting the negative emotions of people who were in pain like taxes.
And the fact that even Aden doesn’t know that emotions that are no different from that fuel lie dormant in the basent of Ruin Castle.
‘He’s a wise and brave man for his age, but this was a battle against you from the beginning.’
But even so, Lewis was obsessed with a strange sense of deja vu, ‘I don’t want to kill that guy.’
‘The reason, of course… must be because of the bowl. It bothers that I dare to absorb the spirit…’
Lewis, who narrowed his eyes, looked at Shin Yoo-seong. Even though we t for the first ti today, it was sohow a familiar face thanks to the assimilation of Adela’s body.
“Can I ask you sothing?”
“what?”
Looking at Shin Yoo-seong, who was nervous with speculation all over his body, Louis asked slowly, savoring the mont.
“Why did you appear next to this woman? …Why did you comfort ? Was it just a coincidence for no reason?”
Lewis is a witch who has transcended humans through hatred. It was a question I wouldn’t have asked if I hadn’t felt any emotion. But now she was ‘sothing’ born between Louis and Adela.
“If you don’t want to answer, you don’t have to. It’s just a whimsical entertainnt.”
This feeling that even you can’t understand is human whim. It was proof that Louis, who had absorbed Adela, had beco a human instead of a witch.
Shin Yoo-seong saw Louis like that.
With very calm eyes, he t his gaze for a long ti before opening his mouth.
“Answer my question first. Where is the real Adela?”
Lewis made an ice crystal ball instead of answering Shin Yoo-seong’s question. What was reflected in the clear ice was the young Adela.
“You an you’re still just curious about that?”
Little Adela was left alone but did not cry. With a teddy bear next to her, hugging her knees, she was just waiting for soone.
“Adela is….”
Yooseong Shin looked up at Louis with contempt. Luis’s eyes t each other like the mont he saw Adela for the first ti. He was smiling leisurely, but instead of being happy, he looked emotionless and empty.
“You don’t know. Comforting soone… It’s sothing that has no reason or purpose in the first place.”
“…No reason or purpose? okay. Right.”
After hearing the answer, Louis closed his eyes and once again savored Shin Yoo-seong and Adela’s experience. The mories of the two of them, which were nothing more than a peaceful daily life, were like wine with a sweet flavor to Louise.
Truly, the world was unfair.
“The vessel is trapped in an illusion created by . Before long, you will lose yourself and your existence will be erased.”
Why, even if they were in the sa danger, Adela sent a savior nad Shin Yoo-seong, but only eternal hell ca to Louise.
In the life of Lewis, who was a human being, humanity was only an object to be hated, but did he share such a happy experience with Adela?
“Then then…”
But this injustice was over. Lewis intended to destroy this unfair world with his own hands.
“I am Adela.”
Lewis closed his eyes and thought. Shin Yoo-seong is a human being who is the complete opposite of the garbage he has been through. It didn’t seem like a bad idea to start anew in a white world that had been cleaned of cockroaches.
Yeah, I didn’t have to kill him.
Now that he has beco a human, it didn’t seem too bad to erase Yoosung’s mory and build new mories and new encounters in a world where only the two of them are left.
Lewis’ unfairly lost life is a new layer of experience stained with hatred.
‘Rescue all the trash… and create a new humanity… that ets my standards.’
When Lewis stretched out his pure white hand, several strands of ice crystals continued like transparent threads.
“Since your body has changed, it wouldn’t be a bad idea to try a new technique.”
[Opera of Snow]
When Louis smiled, a blue wave made of mana rippled. The waves froze in an instant as if water had touched a cold steel plate, turning into hail.
This is the precursor to Adela’s strongest skill, the Opera of the Eye.
Shaak!
But just as the hail was about to dissipate, Lewis clenched his fists.
“Of course, what I use is very different. Reading your mories, I heard you can use Mana Resonance?”
Kwak!
The Opera of Snow is Adela’s barrier that covers the surroundings with a blizzard. However, Lewis compressed the boundary into a circular sphere.
“…Now look. Even the sa mana has different forms and properties. The application of witches is like this.”
The Snow Opera was originally a huge barrier that should have left over the entire Ruin Castle, but its power condensed to the limit until it beca a small dot in front of Louis’ index finger.
A very shabby pale blue dot.
Lewis’ attack seed to have shrunk mana the size of the earth to the size of a ping-pong ball.
‘Is that a way to block Mana Resonance?’
What are the advantages of shrinking it down to such a small form? However, no matter how he rolled his brain, it was difficult for even Shin Yoo-seong to guess the reason for Lewis’ attack.
This is the difference between the experiences of witches and humans who have lived hundreds of thousands of years.
“I want to see you frozen. But don’t worry. When you open your eyes again, you’ll forget all the painful mories.”
Lewis pressed his index finger and thumb together to crush the blue dot.
The cold air exploded like a grenade in the opera of eyes condensed to the limit in the form of dots.
Pew!
The blue explosion that started from Lewis’ hand froze everything it touched and spread throughout Ruin Castle.
“ah-!”
Lorelai, who touched the waves, let out a sigh. The mont Lorelai sensed the explosion, more than half of her arms were already frozen.
“This is…”
Shin Yoo-seong is also embarrassed by Luis’ thod. Until now, Shin Yoo-seong had many counterasures against mana-using skills.
There was a way to counterattack from a distance using the Changryong Ascension Wave, and there was also a way to resonate the wavelength to nullify the activation of the technique itself.
However, there was no destruction thod in the technique Lewis used. Lewis condensed Shin Yuseong to the limit so that he could not read the wavelength of mana.
Mana is like that.
Although the movent of a huge storm can be predicted, the movent of a storm in a small ball cannot be read.
The ti allowed for Shin Yoo-seong is only the mont when Lewis broke the dot and a cold explosion was ford.
Shin Yoo-seong showed transcendental concentration and read the wavelength of the ice explosion. I even heard the illusion that ti slowed down, accelerating my senses to several tis the usual. but nonetheless.
‘late.’
Destroying technology with Mana Resonance ans understanding and reinterpreting information. However, the enormous amount of information contained in Lewis’ [Opera of the Eyes] was like a huge book.
No matter how much you accelerate your senses, can you understand such a vast amount of information in an instant?
Through Adela’s mory, Louis read Shin Yuseong’s weakness. The mana resonance that seed invincible was easily destroyed.
Bounce-!
Shin Yooseong’s fingertips were frozen, but he couldn’t give up. Who else could save Adela if not herself? Having worked hard, Adela beca a child again and endured the endless winter lonely.
‘It’s about accelerating your thoughts to read more wavelengths faster!’
Shin Yuseong further accelerated the accident. The speed that humans can process has been surpassed a long ti ago. What I feel right now is the dizzying sensation of the electric wire connected to my brain being snapped with sparks.
Perhaps it was for this mont that he sharpened his strength and was chosen by the king of swords. What does it an to simply be strong? However, if it ant saving a precious person, there was no greater aning than that.
‘More and faster!’
The ice that had spread from his fingertips now covered them, but Shin Yooseong kept repeating the word ‘quickly’ in his head.
Hurry up, let’s read this mana quickly, let’s transform it, and save Adela like that.
However, the chill that flowed through Louis’ body was too terrifying. This wasn’t just cold, it was a sense of despair.
‘Has Adela been through this cold… alone at the age of 5?
Shin Yoo-seong’s breathing quickened. In the blurred vision, Adela’s figure was clear.
Chin-
The appearance of Adela, sweating all over her body from nightmares in the sa stale room as always.
[It must have been you…]
But Shin Yoo-seong couldn’t guess as he watched Adela co to her senses calmly. How many tis did Adela repeat this nightmare?
[…I hate to admit it. I’m afraid.]
From the age of 5 to now, in fear that can hardly be calm, in loneliness to see soone precious again, how many tis have I had to kill myself?
[But I don’t want to stop either. Now… I want to get rid of that mory. That way…]
How did he get the courage to do so?
That’s why Shin Yoo-seong knew from the beginning that it was an impossible calculation, but he didn’t give up. It was Adela who faced my past with unbelievable courage.
‘Just a little more…’
But that was over.
Shin Yuseong’s mind was clouded.
My brain, which was accelerating my thoughts, felt at ease for an instant, and was freed from the burning pain. The body that lost the accident was left with nothing but the terrible feeling of being engulfed in the cold.
The mont when the mind, dulled by the cold, slowly sinks into the depths of the sea from which it cannot return.
“Give up…don’t-!”
Lorelai shouted.
Lorelai struggled to wake Shin Yoo-seong while half of her body was frozen.
“Rescuing the princess… in any hardship is the prince’s… role.”
Although the target was Adela, not herself, Lorelai cheered Shin Yoo-seong.
“You must be…”
Lorelai beca a cold ice statue without being able to finish her words. Although she did not beco Shin Yoo-seong’s princess, Lorelei did not doubt that Shin Yoo-seong was a prince who would save everyone like in a fairy tale.
‘I am-!’
Shin Yooseong, who ca to his senses, reached out his hand again. When I awakened my senses again in my clear mind, the surroundings were not ice castles, but the land of gold I had seen before.
clock tower.
crumbling land.
Built on top of it is the temple of Chronoa, the goddess of ti.
[Breaking the rules again for the sake of humans… I thought foolishness was only for humans, but it seems the sa goes for goddesses.]
Cronoa, revealing her form next to Shin Yuseong, muttered softly.
[You keep repeating the sa mistake no matter how much ti is given.]
Is it for the poor Lorelai, his contractor? Or was he moved by Shin Yoo-seong’s tenacity? Although I don’t know why.
[This is really the only ti.]
The goddess of ti broke the contract and shook the pendulum. It’s just a mont, but it completely stops ti.
