Chapter 18.
#16.
Whiing—!
A strong wind brushed my cheeks.
How long has it been since you crossed the Iron Mountains?
My dry skin from the cold wind tingled, and the feeling in my hands and feet instantly disappeared.
With just one desire to get away from the emperor, he continued to flap his wings half-conscious.
Then.
‘I see…’
A ray of light entered the red eyes that were gradually blurring.
The light gradually grew in size as it got closer.
It shone like a Christmas tree on a dark night.
I finally found it.
The city.
I don’t know how far I’ve flown.
“After…”
I stopped in mid-air, exhaled, and flapped my wings again.
Even from a distance, it was clear that the bright lights were a fairly large city.
This is a fantasy world.
Light that brightens the darkness was rare.
Expectations were born.
Perhaps thanks to that anticipation, my body, which was clearly exhausted, became lively.
‘It’s a new life.’
Her life won’t be smooth.
It must be a bumpy, thorny road.
But.
‘Anything is better than being under the Emperor.’
I clenched my fists.
The sun that dyed the horizon a crimson color began to burn brightly as if to bless my future.
My life.
No, it’s heaven.
“This is the beginning.”
I, who was lowly, spread my wings wide.
It will fly.
A large city in the Kingdom of Argentina.
To Sasgauni.
* * *
The sun has set.
I couldn’t find any clues about Iris’ whereabouts.
All Ragrasha knew was that Iris had fled.
I wouldn’t have been able to find out even that if it wasn’t for the angel’s wings I found at the main gate of the academy.
Tak-tak-tak-tak.
Rag Rasha’s hand tapping on her desk became faster.
It is a dark room.
Such a room where one candle is barely lit.
Normally, I would have spent time in this room watching Iris sleep.
“Kuh…Kuhhh…! I’m sorry… I’m sorry, Your Majesty…!”
Untimely moaning echoed in the quiet room.
It wasn’t a strange moan.
It was a moan like the struggle of a prey trying to escape from a terrible agony.
“I must have ordered you to keep an eye on Iris.”
“Cheuk..!”
Rag Rasha’s voice added immensely, squeezing the shadow that lay prostrate on her floor.
That wasn’t the end.
Digging into her chest, they writhe in pain as if her hand was directly constricting her heart.
Tuduk. Took.
Fresh blood was overlaid on the bright red carpet.
“Keuhuh…Lung, hah majesty…!”
The shadow screamed.
However, Ragrasha’s cold eyes showed no signs of getting better.
Her hand cut through the air.
Her palms turned upside down to the sky, and her hands were closed as if grasping something in her.
“Keah hahahaha…!”
The shadow that gripped the heart tumbled across the floor.
Blood dripped from his groaning mouth.
Whites were exposed from the shadow’s eyes, and bright red veins sprouted and burst.
The whites were already stained red.
A scream, not a scream, came out of his mouth.
“Repay with death.”
Kwakdeuk—!
Ragrasha clenched her fists.
At the same time, the shadow’s body collapsed like a puppet whose thread was cut.
It is dead.
“…”
After looking at the corpse of the shadow for a while, Ragrasha gestured.
Then other shadows nearby came out and disposed of the corpse in an instant.
Thanks to the bright red carpet, if it wasn’t for the bloody smell, nothing would know what happened there.
“Come find Iris. Let you take the command.”
“Chung.”
The shadow surrounding the corpse nodded.
Then it disappeared.
Like the wind.
“…”
Ragrasha looks at them with emotionless eyes.
She immediately walked forward.
The place where the shadow of the dead was shedding blood a while ago.
When I stepped on it with my shoe, sticky blood came out.
Kwok.
Ragrasha strongly trampled on it.
For her, her shadow was such an existence.
Consumables.
An existence that can be replaced at any time.
But.
“Iris.”
Ragrasha called out that name.
Unlike consumables, the name of one’s only toy that cannot be replaced with anything else.
“Iris. Iris. Iris.”
Like a broken radio, on and on.
“Iris. Iris.”
I called repeatedly.
But no matter how much I call, I can’t hear it.
Iris’ answer.
I looked around.
None.
No matter where you look, there is no iris.
Where are you?
Where did she go?
Is it dead?
Like an older sister?
Did you leave?
Forever?
“Ah…”
Ragrasha shook her head.
She grabbed her head with her trembling hands.
Kung kung.
Her foot was stomping on the red carpet.
I was dizzy.
Beep—–
I heard two people.
Woong-woong.
My eyesight went round and round.
It was then.
-Master!
A voice was heard.
It is a bright voice.
Ragrasha’s eyes flashed.
“Iris.”
Ragrasha’s head swung back in the direction the sound came from.
Nothing was visible.
The only thing that came into Ragrasha’s field of vision was the wall with the portrait of the first emperor of the empire hanging on it.
Iris was nowhere to be seen.
I heard it clearly.
Ragrasha frowned.
Beetle.
Her body shook as if she would collapse at any moment.
But it didn’t stop.
Ragrasha moved forward.
I heard a sound.
I continued to walk in front of a blank wall.
“Where are you? Iris. I will punish you I will sternly take responsibility for the sin of daring to leave luggage…Leaving luggage behind.”
Standing in front of the wall, Ragrasha said so.
Then Iris’ voice came again.
-Master!
I can definitely hear it from here.
I can hear Iris’ voice.
Are you trapped inside the wall?
Ragrasha raised her fist.
Then he hit hard.
Bang—!
The wall collapsed with a loud noise.
But.
Iris did not exist there either.
No, it couldn’t have been there in the first place.
“Heh, heh heh…”
Ragrasha let out a laugh.
Ragrasha himself knew best that Iris had flown somewhere.
Yes.
Iris was no longer by her side.
She left.
Like an older sister.
Wicked—!
The surroundings have changed.
Ragrasha’s head, which had been shaken by the change, lifted.
This is a familiar place.
This is…
Bang—!
A huge explosion occurred.
But something was strange.
When you think of an explosion, it is easy to think of black smoke and bright red flames.
But this explosion was different.
Blue flames flew in all directions.
Mana Blast.
A phenomenon that occurs when a vast amount of uncaptured mana bursts out of a human body.
“…”
Ragrasha’s eyes shook like fireworks in front of me.
“Ragrasha!!!”
“…!”
Ragrasha’s body trembled.
It is a voice that should not be heard.
“Keah haaa!!!!”
Terrible screams.
Everything felt so vivid to me.
Make sure to read from noble mtl dot com
Just like reality.
“…”
Ragrasha’s head turned.
Then I saw it.
An In-yeong is burning in the blue flames.
In her hand was a girl.
Red hair.
It was Ragrasha himself.
And the blonde woman holding Ragrasha is the one.
“Ah, Aristel..!”
She was my older sister.
“Aristel what are you doing!!”
“Keuk… Kkeaaa!!!!”
Aristel’s body glowed blue.
Even his skin was engulfed in blue flames, and his pupils glowed blue.
Mana runaway slowly burns the inside of a person’s body.
And Aristel.
She absorbed all of her own mana, causing a mana runaway.
In other words, that figure.
It was something Ragrasha himself had to go through.
“Kkeaaa!!!!”
Her eardrum-shattering scream hit Ragrasha’s ears.
Hard.
Blood flowed from Ragrasha’s clenched hands.
Deed deed.
The earth trembled.
“Oh, sister!!!!”
Little Ragrasha shouted.
Aristel brushed the cheek of such young Ragrasha.
I felt that sensation so vividly.
On the cheek of Ragrasha himself, who was fully covered.
Because it has already happened.
And she knows this next ending.
Because of that.
Slowly—-!
The world was divided into two.
At the same time, light seeped through the cracked world.
The flames surrounding Ragrasha were sucked in through the cracks, and darkness came again.
“…”
The collapsed wall caught my eye.
I’m back.
Welcome to this.
Long time no see.
I saw her often after her sister died.
Ragrasha dropped the sword she was holding.
Chenggurang–!
A heavy lump of metal tumbled across the floor.
Lagrasha sat down on top of it.
Then she covered her face with her hands.
Her hot breath is trapped in her hand.
Rag Rasha, who washed her face dry with her breath, flashed her eyes.
“I have to find it.”
Never.
I should never have let her go.
One mistake is enough.
A storm raged in Ragrasha’s heart.
Sorrow into anger.
Anxiety into anger.
All emotions were replaced with anger.
Even this was nothing more than deceiving himself.
But if you don’t do this, it will really fall apart.
Then I’ll admit it.
Her sister died because of her own mistake.
Then.
Iris left because of her own mistake.
Ragrasha let out a chuckle.
She didn’t even think to wipe the dripping tears, she said softly.
“In a way, she was right.”
Four wings.
Those white wings of yours.
“I should have cut it piece by piece.”
Ragrasha rose from her seat.
Holding the sword that had fallen beside her.
I put it in my hand.
And then.
Chew—!
Blood splattered all over her floor.
A blood oath.
Taboo magic that I swore not to use.
It’s time to use it.
