Chapter 354

TL: Zimmings

I said to Neliard, who had fallen down.

“You hate people.”

“…….”

“That’s why you don’t have someone who had the same beliefs as yours, right?”

Neliard’s expression hardened.

“That’s why you chose Mina. Because she have the same beliefs as you, and she’s actually a child who was desperate for people like you.”

Since I have lived as a sister to Mina, I vaguely knew how she lived before coming to this world.

Mina was disappointed with people, but she struggled to believe in them.

She repeated the word for the people as a habit, perhaps to brainwash herself.

She was desperate for someone in that world, and he longed for someone to protect me, so both do everything under the guise of justice.

She was like Neliard, whose hatred toward humans was rampant under his beliefs.

Neliard, who lowered his head, muttered.

“…Noisy.”

“…….”

“You’re noisy!”

I proceeded with caution, one step at a time.

My family’s eyes followed us. They were woried about me.

At that time, my ancient memories came in my mind.

[Where have you been up until this time! How can you make me worry so much!]

Neliard was scolding the ancient Leblaine, who returned late at night.

The small boy cried silently, stroking her hair while sleeping.

[If something happens to you, I can’t live.]

He whispered those words in a very tired voice.

[Look, Leblaine. There will be an orphanage after we crossed this river. Children like you can grow up under the protection of Serga without starving!]

The boy who was excited, was holding the little girl’s hand.

The boy then gave food to his sister.

[What about you, brother?]

[I’m not hungry.]

[But you also starved for three days… … .]

[I’m fine. I’m your brother after all.]

The scene changes to a skinny boy who was caught stealing bread from a store and never let go of the bread for his sister who was waiting.

The child who was beaten up was sitting down behind his sleeping sister and hugged his stomach.

[My younger sister couldn’t eat anything the whole time. Please share the milk. Save my sister. Save us….]

He became very young, hugging a baby wrapped in blankets and begging around desperately.….

“Neliard.”

“…….”

Neliard looked at me with my knees bent in front of him.

He looked very small even though he was more than a span taller than me.

Something rose from my heart. Like the ancient memories engraved in the soul.

I struggled to hold back my tears and covered Neliard’s cheek.

“You’ve worked hard. You’ve worked hard.”

“…….”

“I know how hard you worked alone.”

“…Who are you?”

Neliard asked blankly.

His eyes clouded. The way he looked at me wasn’t the way he usually looked at me.

“I’m Leblaine.”

“…….”

“I’m now a grown-up who knows how to overcome pain, and you don’t have to protect me any longer.”

Hugging Neliard, I whispered quietly.

I’m not your sister now, I’m not a small child you have to protect, I’m just Leblaine.

“Ahh…….”

Neliard laughed momentarily.

“Is that so? Aren’t you a child?”

Tears streamed down my cheeks. I said with a trembling voice.

“You can rest now.”

A small crack was heard in my ears.

The once powerful person now could collapse at any moment just by hugging them.

I whispered over and over again, leaning my forehead against his head.

It’s okay now.

I’m fine.

So you’ll be fine too.

The whispering did not stop until the sky turned red and the dusk fell.

Soon after, the moment the sun completely went away, the person in front of me became dust and scattered.

I hugged the remnants of God scattered in front of me and cried for a long time.

Warm hands touched my shoulder.

Who I saw when I turned my head…

“Leblaine.”

It was dad.

Behind him were Johann, Henry and Isaac who looked at me with a worried expressions.

The light shone from afar. People from all over the place ran toward me.

Aunt, Chairman, Seria, Zachary, Wale, Viscount Dubos, Veronica, my godmother, Emeline, Tri, Cecilia, Dahlia and Linda, Yuni, and Lea.

Everyone’s eyes contained a lot of concern for me.

“Leblaine…”

Dad bent his knees and made eye contact with me after mumbling several time as if he didn’t know what to talk about.

The wind blew.

My hair, which had always been tidy since I was adopted, was messed up like when I was young and had no one to take care of me.

The torn flag of the Neliard Temple, which leaned on one side of the collapsed temple, shook and fluttered.

As if someone was standing there, my mother.

She seemed to be saying,

[Look at you now. Are you happy?]

I reached out to my father.

“Hug me.”

“…….”

Dad hugged me, and I said with a sad smile.

“Duke, I like you.”

“Duke, I lwike you.”

I said those words I had said once more in my childhood.

Then dad said,

“……Yes.”

I know.

How hard this blunt father, who could never say he liked me, thought about answering me.

How much love in his words.

Isaac giggled and said.

“Why did you reply like that?.”

Henry crossed his arms and nodded.

“He couldn’t easily show his affection.”

Johann smiled affectionately with the same face as his father.

Even after my old family disappears, the new one remains. I still have a family.

The last remaining power of Neliard died completely.

But…

Roar-!!

The sky shook.

Light permeated the darkness of the night, and a door opened.

People looked at the door of light that arrived with a surprised look.

I also hardened and looked at the door of light.

I heard a voice through my ear.

[You still have something precious left.]

It was my mom’s voice.

As soon as the remnants of Neliard, which had been piled up on my lap, were scattered into the door of light, someone’s face came to mind.

[Leblaine.]

The man with brilliant blonde hair and a strong back.

I froze for a moment. Soon after, my etwal lit up.

“Leblaine?”

Dad looked at me.

“Ahhh.”

I covered my mouth with both hands.

‘How could I have forgotten?’

My foolish self.

“…Adrian!”

I got up to my feet.

As I approached the door of light in a hurry, my dad grabbed my hand.

“What’s wrong?”

“I have to go. That man is waiting.”

“What?”

“He’s a fool, and if I don’t find him, he’ll be curled up inside that forever.”

“What…….”

“So I have to go!”

Wale and Veronica hurriedly stopped me.

Wale said.

“What are you saying! The force coming from that door is unusual. You never know what’s going to happen if you go in!”

Veronica nodded her head.

“Lady, I’ve felt a power similar to mine. The incident that caused me not to get older. You might end up living with a broken body like me!”

“I still have to go.” freewebn(o)vel

“Lady!”

Stefano, Emeline’s father said,

“I know that. It is something that a priest shouldn’t have known. That is the end of the world.”

“The end……?”

“That door will appear in the ‘new era’ when God Serga disappeared and Neliard took the place of God.”

“…….”

“You will not be safe. Do you want to go without knowing it?”

“…….”

“No one knows what’s at the end of that door. It can be this world, the past, or the future, or Mina’s world.”

“…….”

“But the biggest problem is that you can’t come back.”

Emeline looked at Stefano with a bewildered look.

My family was also very hardened.

Stefano grabbed my shoulder.

“That’s the passage God made. God disappeard as he went against Neliard alongside Neliard. Who can open that passage again?”

“……I know.”

I felt it instinctively.

That if I leave that door, I may not be able to come back.

I said,

“But I think it’s the last chance. It’s the last chance my mom gave me, and Neliard gave it to his sister.”

I said to my family.

“Trust me. I’ll be back.”

“…….”

“When have I ever let you down?”

The brothers shouted with hardened faces. In particular, Isaac was very angry.

“No way! I’ll never allow it! What are you doing? Get Leblaine! If she can’t get to that door-”

“Go.”

“Father!”

Isaac shouted, and Henry also looked at his dad with a firm face.

Dad took Isaac’s hand and looked at me.

“I believe in you.”

“…….”

“It’s a parent’s job to believe.”

Dad hugged me and said.

“Promise me. You’ll come back safely.”

“……Yes.”

I hugged my dad and swore. Henry and Isaac still opposed it, but when Johann grabbed them and shook his head, they bit their lips.

I stood at the door and looked at everyone.

I said

“I’ll go.”

So I went inside the door.

***

When I open my eyes again… … .

A chubby hand.

Short arms that look like sausages connected.

“What’s twis! (What’s this!)”

I had become a child

And what I saw was…

“Oh my, I think the lady has woken up.”

…… Reina?

It was Lea’s older sister, Reina.
