[Comprehensive] The wonderful daily life of Kongjo Jona

Why... all the things he drew are dead...

Aaron knelt down in the forest in a daze, the paintings in his hands scattered all over the place, and everything he depicted in his pen turned into scenes of death.

Animals, birds, every tree, even every blade of grass, withered.

What is...why...

"Haven't you realized it, our king?"

A magical voice sounded in the dead forest, and the woman named Pandora appeared from the distance of the forest again like a ghost.Dressed in black, she swayed her graceful body and walked towards Aaron step by step.But Aaron's puppy didn't show any abnormality after seeing her this time, as if he couldn't see her at all, as usual, he happily circled around Aaron's legs.

"Everything in this land is given an equal rest under your kindness—"

Pandora stopped in front of Aaron and knelt on the ground devoutly. Aaron looked at her in panic and disbelief. Facing this scene, he shook his head in fear, "No, I don't know what you are talking about! I It's not the person you're looking for... there must be something wrong!"

"Please accept your true self, Your Highness Aaron... No, Lord Hades."

Pandora raised her head, and there was something glittering in her eye sockets. She laughed morbidly, and said softly, "Didn't you understand, my most honorable Highness, do you still remember why that dog is still here?"

"……puppy……?"

Aaron stared blankly at Pandora, he lowered his head stiffly, and looked at the puppy lying at his feet, looking at him innocently.

Then he remembered, at that time, just before Tianma left!In order to find the color of true red, he came to the place pointed out by the priest and met Pandora.

... The puppy died at that time, and was taken away by Pandora.

Those terrible memories are like tilting out of an open box, yes, it was dead at that time, but he didn't want the puppy to die, so he resurrected it with the power of Hades, the king of the underworld!

"No...I..." The puppy still looked at him innocently wagging its tail, but Aaron, who thought of everything, only felt deep fear. He dug his cheek with his nails and whimpered in pain , "That's not me... I don't want to be like that..."

"My lord, why don't you understand that you can own anything in this world."

"No—it's not like that!!"

Aaron pushed Pandora away and fled. He stumbled back to the orphanage in the town, trying to find Jona, but when he opened the door, he saw the children lying on the ground one by one.

He didn't even close his eyes, but he had already lost his breath, and his body became icy cold.

"........."

Aaron suddenly lost his mind.He opened his mouth and wanted to yell, but no sound came out of his throat.He looked at the children's corpses with chills all over his body, and Pandora appeared behind him quietly again, her hands gently pinching his shoulders.

"Three days ago, you drew these children... with love."

"Do not……!!"

She bent down, pressed her whole body against Aaron's back, which was almost collapsed, and said softly in Aaron's ear, "Don't be sad, my lord, these children have not left, they have arrived haha By your side, Master Diss, you no longer have to worry about enduring hunger, but are freed from this painful world, and you have redeemed them."

"Death...is salvation..."

Aaron's voice was trembling, and he felt that something was broken in his heart, and he couldn't even shed tears.

Pandora smiled softly, "Yes, death is salvation, Lord Aaron... accept your true self."

"I... am Hades..."

"Don't listen to her nonsense, you are yourself!"

When Pandora was about to succeed, a voice suddenly interrupted the two severely.Hearing that voice, Aaron was stunned for a moment, a gleam of light appeared in his dim eyes, and he couldn't help but look back at the main entrance of the orphanage, "JOJO...!"

At the dim entrance of the orphanage, a girl with black curly black hair blocked the light from outside. Her back was straight and her expression was extremely dignified, but she stared at Aaron very firmly.

Pandora's face suddenly changed, and it was just a little bit that Lord Hades would be fully awakened... There are still people coming to sabotage their plan at this juncture!

"Who! How dare you be so presumptuous in front of Lord Hades! Take back your words!" Aaron's unsteady appearance made her furious, and she couldn't help shouting at Qiao Na, and pulled out her own weapons.

"Who he wants to be is determined by his own will. In my opinion, that gentle and kind boy is Aaron standing in front of me."

Jona walked into the orphanage step by step without hesitation. With every step forward, thorns grew under her feet. Aaron opened his mouth slightly, and he looked straight at Jona, but couldn't say a word.Pandora's eyes were red, she clenched the wand in her hand, a powerful hatred overflowed like black smoke, and almost began to engulf her surroundings, she couldn't help roaring hysterically, "Who do you think you are?! How dare you treat Hardy Master Si said such things! I will kill you! I will tear you into pieces!!"

However, after she finished speaking, at the same time as she was attacking, the figure of the girl walking straight towards them disappeared from the spot. Before Pandora could be surprised, the next moment, she found that the magic wand in her hand flew far away. She was hung upside down on the beams and pillars of the orphanage, and the thorns that came from nowhere bound her tightly from her feet to her head!

what happened? !

"What's going on?!" Pandora, who was hung upside down, uttered a scream, and suddenly looked angrily and disbelievingly at Qiao Na who was watching her below, "What did you do to me?!"

"I stopped time." Qiao Na looked at her indifferently, grabbed her collar with her hand, and stood slightly sideways.

"Because you're a woman, I won't hit you. Of course, it's not sexist."

"Stop time?! How is that possible! Who are you?! Damn it, let me down! I must kill you..." Pandora scolded and struggled, but she found that she couldn't get rid of the bondage that bound her. The thorns, after struggling to no avail, she began to yell towards an unknown place, "Hypnos! What are you waiting for?! Hurry up and kill that woman!"

"You are so noisy, please be quiet for a while." Qiao Na didn't give Pandora any chance. She frowned, and the thorns continued to grow immediately, instantly binding Pandora's mouth. Pandora whined angrily, but finally said no When the words came out, he had to stare dryly and look down angrily.

"JOJO..."

Quietly watching what happened just now, Aaron did not show surprise as usual.He looked down in frustration and his voice was much lower than usual.

"don’t worry."

Jona nodded to Aaron, bent down and began to examine the child lying on the ground.There was no external injury on her body, and she had been dead for several hours... I am afraid that she died not long after she went out.

"I did it..." Aaron kept his head down, unable to see the expression on his face, as if on the verge of collapse, murmured intermittently, "A few days ago, I drew the portraits of these children , so they were all taken away...because I...was Hades."

"It was Hades who caused the tragedy, but it wasn't your fault."

Jona stepped forward and gently supported Aaron's shoulders, comforting in a low voice, "You can't decide who you are, if being the reincarnation of Hades is destined from birth, as long as your own will is still there , you can choose who you will be."

She paused, looked into Aaron's eyes and continued, "In my opinion, you are Aaron, not anyone else. If you feel sorry for the children's death and have a compassionate heart, then don't Go believe what that woman tells you."

"Mmmmm——" Pandora made a sound angrily.

"..." Aaron lowered his head and did not speak. After being silent for a while, he asked back.

"Isn't death a relief? JOJO?"

"I don't think so. None of us living are really willing to die." Qiao Na shook her head, "If you choose to die because life is too difficult and painful, it is just a self-deceiving escape. As long as you live, there will be no future." It's over, tomorrow is another day, even if I don't know whether tomorrow will be worse or better, but as long as I live, there are infinite possibilities in the future. I know 90.00% better than giving up without putting in the effort. I might fail, even if I'm covered in bruises, I'm going to stand until my last breath is left. I remember a guy who said to me that it's better to think about how beautiful than to die beautifully To live until the end... This feeling is only experienced by us who have to face death in the only life."

"........."

Aaron's shoulders shook violently, and he couldn't tell whether he was crying or laughing, or whether he understood Jona's words, but there seemed to be endless sadness in his trembling voice.Suddenly, Aaron raised his head, grabbed Jona's shoulder and cried to her.

"But how can I repay the sins I committed...I want to be redeemed too!"

"Can't you forgive yourself, Aaron?" Jona held Aaron's hand, "But if you hand yourself over to Hades, you will never be redeemed, and you can easily compromise with death How can I be worthy of those people who are desperately trying to survive!"

The strength in his hands was increasing, and Aaron's body shook, and he looked at Jona with tears streaming down his face.He wanted to say something, but he still couldn't make a sound. After a long time, he sighed, and suddenly let go of Jona's hand weakly, and knelt down on the ground.

"But it's too late..." He murmured softly.

Aaron looked like a dying man, his eyes were blank, and then he slowly opened his sketchbook in front of Jona.

A vivid profile portrait of a young girl jumped out of the white paper, her eyes were shining brightly, beautiful and lifelike.

Qiao Na's pupils dilated slightly for a moment, and her expression froze.

This is... her portrait.

"...I'm sorry." Aaron hugged his arms, crying sobbingly.

Even after she left, I didn't want to forget her, and wanted to keep her in my heart forever.

But his redemption... will soon be gone too.
