Chapter 304
[ 304. Decisive battle (11) ]
#304
“It’s been a while. corporal.”
Adeshan said. A cold, low voice lingered in Ronan’s ears. He had been dumbfounded for a long time before finally opening his mouth.
“…General? Are you really the general?”
“okay. It’s been a long time since we talked like this. How are you?”
“yes. Hey, I’ve been doing well, but how the hell…”
My head was still confused. First of all, it was absolutely not that the existing Adeshan was acting. Not only was there no reason for that, but the atmosphere it gave off was completely different.
“How…”
Ronan repeated. I never thought we’d meet again. My eyes were about to blur. Adeshan pulled her hands out of her pockets and said while touching her chest.
“I didn’t expect it either. There was still some energy left in the treasure trove of regression. The power to turn back time was completely lost, but I was able to preserve my personality and memories in this child’s body.”
“It can be. So, where did your personality go?”
“Don’t worry, I’m safe inside. Like everyone else, I have happy dreams… very happy dreams.”
Adeshan smiled. She said that she took over the body while her original personality was asleep. Ronan asked a question without hiding his embarrassment.
“Then you’ve been inside all along? From the day your current senior was born?”
“It is not. My memory in this life started from the moment I met you. From the time I was knocked out by Instructor Nabi Rose and held hands in the infirmary.”
I don’t know why, but from the moment the word hand came out, my voice got smaller. After staring at Ronan, she suddenly looked away.
For some reason, her face seemed to be redder than before. Adeshan, who had pursed his lips, opened his mouth.
“…Corporal. Would you like to come here for a second?”
“yes?”
It seemed that he had something urgent to say. It was a car that Ronan, who approached without much thought, put his face into it. slam! His head snapped back at the same time as the sticky sound of the blow reverberated.
“Kuuk!”
“You bastard.”
My cheeks tingled like they were burned. The excitement of the reunion was blown away along with the pain.
Ronan fiddled with the spot where he had been slapped and looked back at her. Adeshan’s face was red as if it would explode if pricked with a needle.
“Whoa… I’d like to do more, but let’s end it with this. You, like me, still have work to do.”
“Why are you suddenly beating me?!”
Ronan let out a puzzle. It hit me in the face pretty hard, but I was dumbfounded rather than angry. Adeshan, who had been breathing quietly, raised his ax eye.
“You mean it. Do you know why I gave you the right to turn back time?”
“Uh…wasn’t it to defeat the bald heads and save the world? You said you believed in my incompetence.”
“right. You did very well. What I failed in three lives, you did in one. But…”
“But?”
Suddenly Adeshan dragged his horse. Ronan tilted his head at the awkward silence that returned. After washing her face dry three or four times, she said as if squeezing it out.
“But why the hell did you and I become lovers…!”
“ah.”
Ronan’s head turned white. Her unusual behavior was understood at once.
‘Fucked.’
I should have noticed this situation from the point where I was maintaining my personality inside my body. Barely coming to his senses, he began to explain, gesturing with his hands and feet.
“That couldn’t be helped. I mean, the senior is a really good person. You’ve seen it from inside, so you know we’re doing really well…”
“Shut up. don’t say more I don’t know how to be ashamed of doing such things…”
“Uh…you could see everything inside? From start to finish?”
“Then what will you do? You unscrupulous bastard!”
“Quaaaaagh!”
Suddenly, Adeshan reached out and pulled both Ronan’s ears. Unable to respond, he let out a scream. Adeshan, who brought her face up to her eyes, continued her blunt words.
“Yes, I saw it! All! I just had to watch the two of them die from start to finish!”
“At that time, I should have slept or something…”
“Do you know what boarding life is like staying inside? Huh, thinking about it again is staggering. They suddenly kissed each other and said it was just because they were pretty? Where the hell did you learn those sly lines…!”
“Ah! Don’t pull on the ears!”
Ronan struggled. Maybe it was because his personality had changed, but somehow his taste seemed to have become spicier. Adeshan started pouring out the accumulated words without stopping.
“It’s obvious if you don’t look. He must have made countless young ladies cry until now with his eloquence. Seducing a man who hadn’t held a man’s hand in his old age would have been as easy as blowing his nose. Isn’t it?”
“Damn it… If I was that good, I would have died in my previous life. This is really the first time I’m dating anyone!”
“You must have said that knowing that I have the ability to see through lies, right? If you’re deceiving me…”
Adeshan growled. I had never seen such ferocious eyes except when commanding the final battle with Ahayute. Ronan, who closed his eyes tightly, complained of injustice.
“Damn it, I didn’t even ask you to date me. What does the general say he knows!”
“……!”
Adeshan hardened. what do you know That one word resonated throughout the quiet battlefield. After a moment of silence, she nodded.
“…Know.”
“yes?”
“I know that is true. That’s why I’m keeping you alive. If you were a bastard who ran around without fidelity, you would have pushed him away from the griffon the day we kissed him for the first time.”
The hairs on her body stood on end at the terrifying story. Adeshan removed his hand from Ronan’s ear. Ronan, who was barely freed, let out a sigh of relief.
“Whoa… is this the end of the hearing?”
“okay. I was excited like I wasn’t. I’m sorry.”
“no. Thanks for noticing. “
Ronan smirked. Adeshan, who stared at his face, smiled bitterly. Swallowing what she was about to say, she nodded.
“Okay then let’s talk about work.”
“great. What is it, Asher was controlled by the general?”
“okay. Excluding your father, he is the only talent among allies who can invoke the protection of the stars. Of course, I didn’t expect it to be this powerful.”
Adeshan looked up at the sky with eyes full of energy. The protection of the stars that Asher raised alone seemed to be no different from what the savior used. While measuring the thickness of the shield, she continued.
“At this rate, I should be able to block three more attacks from him. If you get support like the savior did, you’ll be able to last much longer. But our purpose is not to just hold on.”
“Right.”
Ronan groaned. Certainly, Asher’s ability was formidable, but one day the limit would surely come.
I had to hit him to death first. However, the priority was to wake up the sleeping people before launching a counterattack. Recalling the savior’s words, Ronan snapped his fingers.
“that’s right. What the hell happened? My father said what about my older sister.”
“It is literally. This is what Miss Erill did.”
“…yes?”
Ronan hardened. Adeshan nodded. She said while stroking Butterfly Rosé’s head, which was fluttering while hugging Dae Tae-do.
“Your sister is in danger. I don’t know the details, but it’s probably an ability to project one’s will into the world. I sent a lot of warnings to this child, but it didn’t work out because there was a limit to what words could convey.”
Adeshan pointed to herself and spoke. She said that she had been warning current Adeshan of the threat she sensed from within. Ronan sighed briefly as she explained Iril’s actions.
“There are all sorts of special things in my life. I can’t believe my older sister…”
“It’s a pity, but that’s the reality. You have to find it and stop it. I do not have time.”
“It should be. But can’t we just bring these people to their senses with the general’s ability?”
Ronan asked. Come to think of it, Asher was also moving normally. Adeshan shook his head.
“I already tried, but it was impossible. Iril-yang’s strength is so powerful that it cannot be compared to the likes of me.”
“Eh? Then how do Asher and the others move?”
“I only made my body listen to orders. Even if the mind is intoxicated with a happy dream, it doesn’t mean that there is something wrong with the body. However, in order to awaken the personality that has fallen into a dream, you must first restore the original amount.”
In short, it meant that it resembled a marionette. A being that dances along a thread without a will. Of course, that alone would have been of great help to the war effort, but people were not weapons, so it was impossible to leave them alone.
“In short, there is no answer unless I stop my sister.”
“okay. This is why the religious leader kidnapped your sister. First let her have a happy dream, then synchronize the thoughts of the whole world. That’s why it makes the apocalypse completely irresistible.”
“A child to be torn to death…”
Ronan gritted his teeth. It was a disaster that I missed it because of the arrival of the giant king. Should I have completely cut it, even at the cost of damage? Adeshan looked around and opened her mouth.
“After waking people up, look for Navardoje. I’ll have to organize a separate search party.”
“What, didn’t Abel hurt you?”
“It seems like something is wrong, but I can feel that he is still alive. I just need to get the location right.”
Ronan’s eyes widened. I didn’t come back for so long, so I thought he was dead. The feeling of things going smoothly wasn’t too bad. Yes, the general was such a person.
“And everything I have said is for myself and others to do. There are other things you need to do. You don’t have to explain what it is, right?”
“…of course.”
Ronan nodded. There was only one thing left for him to do.
Thinking that this was enough rest, Ronan was fiddling with the hilt. A low, deep voice echoed overhead.
『Judgement to those who dare to hurt him.』 『
A worthy price for arrogance
.』
Ronan sighed and raised his head. Five or six giants were flying in from afar. They were the ones who couldn’t be caught because the king descended.
『Exterminate the mortals! Do not leave even a single speck of dust!”
Then several times more loud voices rang out. The bottom of the cloud exploded, revealing the King of Giants.
He was still dripping blue blood from his neck and chest. It was a wound Ronan had received a while ago. Adeshan said.
“Let’s share the joy of reunion after work, Corporal.”
“Good idea.”
Ronan laughed. It was the same as the last time I saw it. Concentrating his mind, Adeshan made a strange gesture.
“Wake up.”
A low voice rang out. At the same time, the mana of the shadow spread across the battlefield. One by one, the people who had been wandering around in their minds began to stand up.
