“It’s been a while. “Corporal.”
Adeshan said. A cold, downcast voice lingered in Ronan's ears. After being dumbfounded for a long time, he finally opened his mouth.
“···General? “Are you really the general?”
“okay. It's been a long time since we had a conversation like this. How have you been?”
“yes. “I’ve been doing well, but how on earth…”
My head was still confused. First of all, it was definitely not the existing Adeshan 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 would meet again. My vision was about to turn hazy. Adeshan took his hands out of his pockets and said, touching his chest.
“I didn’t expect it either. There was still room left in the treasure of return. Although I completely lost the power to turn back time, I was able to preserve my personality and memories within this child’s body.”“That can’t be possible. “Then where has your personality gone?”
“Don’t worry, it’s safe inside me. “Because I’m having a happy dream just like everyone else… a very happy dream.”
Adeshan chuckled. She said that her original personality took over her body while she was asleep. Ronan asked a question without being able to hide his embarrassment.
“So you were inside the whole time? “From the day my current senior was born?”
“That’s not it. My memories of this life began from the moment I met you. From the time I was knocked out by Instructor Nabi Rose and grabbed his hand in the nurse’s office.”
I don't know why, but my voice got quieter from the moment the word “hand” came out. She was staring at Ronan and suddenly looked away.
Somehow, my face seemed redder than before. Adeshan, who had been licking his lips, opened his mouth.
“···Corporal. “Can you come here for a moment?”
“yes?”
It seemed like he had something urgent to say. Ronan, who had approached without much thought, was faced with a car. slam! As soon as the snapping sound of the impact rang out, his head suddenly turned.
“Keuuk!”
“You bastard.”
My cheek tingled as if it had been burned. The emotion of the reunion was gone along with the pain.
Ronan looked back at her again, touching the spot where he had been slapped. Adeshan's face was now red, as if it would explode if pricked with a needle.
“Phew… I would like to do more if I feel the same way, but let’s end this. “You, like me, still have work left to do.”
“Why are you hitting me all of a sudden?!”
Ronan shed his confusion. Even though I was hit in the face quite hard, I was more dumbfounded than angry. Adeshan, who was quietly breathing, raised his ax eyes.
“Your Majesty. Why do you think I gave up the right to turn back time to you?”
“Uh…wasn’t it to help you defeat the bald guys and save the world? “You said you believed in my invincibility.”
“right. Very good job. What I have failed to do in three lives, you have accomplished in one go. however···.”
“however?”
Suddenly, Adeshan started talking. Ronan tilted his head as the awkward silence returned. She said as if she was squeezing it out after washing her face three or four times.
“But then, why on earth did you and I become lovers?”
“ah.”
Ronan's mind turned completely white. Her abnormal behavior was immediately understood.
'Fucked.'
I should have noticed this situation from the part about maintaining my personality within my body. He barely came to his senses and began to explain while gesturing with his hands and feet.
“Well, that couldn’t be helped. I mean, my senior is a really good person. “As you can see from the inside, we are really good…”
“Shut up. Don't say any more than that. “They do things like that without even knowing how to feel shame.”
“Uh… are you sure you saw everything from inside? From beginning to end?”
“Then what are you going to do? “You shameless bastard!”
“Kwaaaak!”
Adeshan suddenly reached out and pulled both of Ronan's ears. Before he could react, he screamed. Adeshan brought his face close to my eyes and continued speaking.
“Yes, I saw it all! Everything! “I just had to watch them die from beginning to end!”
“Well, you should have just gone to sleep at that time…”
“Do you think staying inside is like a boarding house? Huh, even thinking about it again, it's shocking. He suddenly kissed me and said it was just because I thought she was pretty? “Where on earth did you learn such ridiculous lines?”
“Ahh! “Don’t pull my ears!”
Ronan struggled. Maybe it was because my personality had changed, but the taste seemed to have become spicier. Adeshan began pouring out the words he had accumulated without stopping.
“It’s obvious even if you don’t look at it. He must have made many young ladies cry with his gift of words. Seducing a girl who had never held a man's hand at that age would have been as easy as blowing her nose. “Isn’t that right?”
“Damn it… if I had been that good, I would have died in my past life. “This is really my first time dating someone!”
“You probably said that because you knew I had the ability to detect lies, right? “If you are deceiving me…”
Adeshan growled. I have never seen such fierce eyes except when leading the final battle with Ahayute. Ronan closed his eyes tightly and complained of injustice.
“Damn it, if that’s the case, I didn’t even ask you out. “What does the general say he knows!”
“······!”
Adeshan stiffened. What do you say you know? That single word echoed throughout the quiet battlefield. After being silent for a moment, she nodded.
“···I know.”
“yes?”
“I know that’s true. That's why I'm keeping you alive. “If you were a bastard who wanders around everywhere without any loyalty, I would have pushed you away from the griffon the day you kissed for the first time.”
The hair on my entire body stood up at the terrifying story. Adeshan removed his hand from Ronan's ear. Ronan, who managed to escape, breathed a sigh of relief.
“Phew…is this the end of the hearing?”
“okay. I was unusually excited. “I was sorry.”
“no. Thank you for your understanding. ”
Ronan grinned. Adeshan, who was staring at his face, smiled bitterly. She swallowed what she was trying to say and nodded.
“Okay, then let’s talk about work now.”
“great. “What is it, Asher was controlled by the general?”
“okay. Aside from your father, he is the only talent among our allies who can bring about the blessings of the stars. Of course, I had no idea it would be this powerful.”
Adeshan looked up at the sky with amazed eyes. The star's protection that Asher had created on his own seemed to be no different from the one used by the savior. She continued while measuring the thickness of the shield.
“At this rate, I should be able to block three more attacks from him. If you receive assistance like the Savior, you will be able to endure much longer. But our goal is not just to hold on.”
“Right.”
Ronan hesitated. Asher's ability was certainly at a formidable level, but it would inevitably reach its limit someday.
I had to hit him first and kill him. However, before launching a counterattack, the priority was to spread out and wake up those who were sleeping. Ronan remembered the savior's words and snapped his fingers.
“that's right. What on earth happened? “My father said something about my sister.”
“That’s literally it. “This is what Miss Iril did.”
“···yes?”
Ronan froze. Adeshan nodded. She said while hugging Dae Taedo and stroking Nabi Rose's head, which was fluttering.
“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 repeatedly sent warnings to this child, but things didn’t go well, perhaps because there was a limit to what I could say.”
Adeshan pointed to himself and spoke. She said that she has been warning Adeshan about the threats she sensed from within. After hearing Iril's movements explained to her, Ronan sighed briefly.
“All kinds of things happen in life. No way, my sister…”
“Unfortunately, that is the reality. We need to find it quickly and stop it. “I don’t have time.”
“That’s right. But can’t we just bring these people to their senses with your abilities?”
Ronan asked. If I think about it, Asher was moving just fine right now. Adeshan shook his head.
“I already tried, but it was impossible. “Miss Iril’s power is so powerful that it cannot be compared to someone like me.”
“Huh? “Then how do Asher and the others move?”
“Only the body was made to listen to commands. Even if your mind is intoxicated by happy dreams, it doesn't mean there's anything wrong with your body. However, in order to wake up a personality that has fallen into a dream, you must first return it to its original state.”
In short, it meant that it was similar to a puppet. A being that dances along a thread without a will. Of course, that alone would have been a great help to the military, but humans were not weapons and could not be left as is.
“In short, there is no answer unless you stop my sister.”
“okay. This is why the cult leader kidnapped your sister. First, let her have happy dreams, and then synchronize the thoughts of the whole world. So it makes it impossible to resist the apocalypse at all.”
“You bastard who will tear you to death…”
Ronan gritted his teeth. The problem was that I missed it because of the arrival of the Giant King. Should I have cut it off completely, even if it meant taking the damage? Adeshan, who was looking around, opened his mouth.
“After waking up the people, I look for Navardose. “We’ll have to organize a separate search party.”
“What, wasn’t it Abel who did it?”
“It seems like something is wrong, but I can definitely feel that he is alive. “But we need to know the location properly.”
Ronan's eyes widened. He didn't come back for so long that I thought he was dead. The feeling that things were progressing smoothly wasn't too bad. Yes, the general was this kind of person.
“And everything I’ve said so far is for me and others to do. There is something else you need to do. “I don’t have to explain what it is, right?”
“···of course.”
Ronan nodded. There was only one thing left that he could do.
This was enough rest. This was the car where Ronan was fiddling with the hilt of his sword. A low, deep voice echoed above my head.
『Judgement on those who dare to hurt Him.』
『A fitting price for arrogance.』
“You’re coming quickly.”
Ronan sighed and raised his head. Five or six giants were flying from far away. They were the ones who couldn't be caught because the king was coming.
『Exterminate mortals! Leave not a single speck of dust behind!』
Then a voice several times louder rang out. The lower surface of the cloud exploded and the King of Giants appeared.
He was still dripping blue blood from his neck and chest. It was a wound suffered by Ronan a little while ago. Adeshan said.
“We will share the joy of our reunion after this is over, Corporal.”
“That’s a good idea.”
Ronan laughed. It was the same as when I saw it last time. Adeshan concentrated his mind and made a strange hand gesture.
“Get up.”
A low voice rang out. At the same time, the shadow's mana spread around the battlefield. One by one, the people who had been wandering around in fascination began to wake up.
