Chapter 781 – Executives
Dusky dawn, just before the morning sun.
I built a small shower booth using magic and camping tools to wash Ebony, and briefly contacted Alba.
─As expected, you are overdoing it, aren’t you? I don’t know how much you knew about this decision… Listen. The World Tree’s interference with Shiva is becoming more severe.
Alba’s message her through Jeon Eum contained content that was difficult to ignore. After hearing the report I was expecting, I answered quietly.
‘Yes.’
─Are you sure you are listening?
‘I’m listening.’
Even though he was a former sage, he had no way to solve my daughter Shiva’s problem.
Since Shiva is under the protection of the system, the only way to escape from the world tree’s beast is for the person involved to voluntarily cut off the connection or choose death.
-Sssss.
I thought as I stared at the silhouette of an ebony taking a bath.
The sight of water pouring down. Ebony’s body line is reflected in a gray shadow on the outside of the blue tent material.
When Ebony lowered her head to rub her shins with a shower towel wrapped in body wash, her small buttocks popped out.
‘Shiba is still young and weak. She has no choice but to wait until she grows up to overcome it on her own.’
─Ha… Do I know what I’m worried about?
‘What else is my sister worried about other than me and Wiki?’
It’s hard for me to say this, but Alba is extremely self-centered.
Shiva also warns that it is dangerous. It wasn’t that she was worried about Shiva, but she was worried that I would go astray after losing her Shiva.
I also know her growth her process her well, so I don’t particularly hate her for that.
Well anyway.
‘The World Tree will no longer harm Shiva. She will try to use me to kill me.’
─… I guess so. But you should know that. As long as Sephiroth is interested. I am… No. The future we can anticipate has become very small.
‘It’s okay.’
Me and Shiva will meet each other someday.
I was planning to seriously convey this truth to Dal-lae, Se-young, and Byeol someday.
‘Because there is nothing more foolish than having regrets about impossible things.’
─…
─It’s as if you’re saying that you know the whole future.
‘That can’t be possible.’
─You can come today without getting hurt, right?
‘I have to work hard to see my sister’s bear underwear.’
─… Hang up.
I was despised.
One of the joys of my life is unboxing Alba’s thighs every time and seeing the bear’s expression her drawn on her underwear her, but this reaction was a bit sad.
Even when he sank his fangs into my body during sex, he stayed still.
Do you know how much it hurts to be bitten by sharp teeth?
─Stop fussing.
‘Okay.’
As soon as the contact ended with Alba’s scolding, the shower booth opened.
-Jjieeik.
After finishing the shower, the ebony stuck out its head and looked at me like a fawn that came to drink from a spring.
“Have you washed everything?”
“… Yes.”
As Ebony carefully opened the booth and came out, warm steam could be seen rising from his soft skin.
I changed all my clothes. Perfect condition.
I said, knocking on the log I was sitting on.
“Sit.”
Ebony walked next to me on his two skinny legs and then stopped.
Are you conscious of what happened early in the morning? Our deer’s face was red.
From the tip of her nose to both cheeks, ears and the bridge of her nose, it was bright red.
Even though I was in a relationship with a priest, he was so careful and shy that he cried in my arms all morning, so it was embarrassing.
“When will you come?”
“Ah…”
The ebony sighed briefly and hesitated for a while before sitting down next to me.
A warm ebony wet body with a soft smell.
“Turn your back and stay still.”
“Yes.”
[Wind]
Let’s use wind magic that has reached its peak level.
The pleasantly warm wind began to dry the wet ebony hair.
The ebony flinched, closed its eyes tightly and trembled as it accepted my touch.
“Why are you so nervous?”
“That is…” “I’m sorry.”
“What?”
“No matter what, I miss the person who tried to harm Master… I complained to my teacher… It’s strange.”
Is this the story of Yeonhwa?
I didn’t quite understand it at first, but I thought it might be possible if you were in Ebondan’s position.
Regardless of whether he is a threat to me or not. First of all, Yeonhwa tried to harm me. Ebondan was sad as he looked back on the precious memories he had with Yeonhwa.
“I don’t care.”
I guess it bothers me a little.
To be honest, it seemed to me that he was acting like a child and was simply embarrassed, and in reality, it seemed like that he was playing a bigger role. Ebondan said that was the case, so I decided to skip it.
I smoothed out Ebony’s dry hair and whispered sweetly to him.
“Organize well. Let’s go finish it.”
Ebony’s wish is coming to an end.
I need to cheer up.
I gently hugged Ebony’s damp but good-smelling body from behind her and patted her head.
“Yes. “Master.”
“Listen carefully. No matter what happens. “I will never blame you.”
“… What does that mean?”
You will find out soon.
I smiled and got up from my seat.
“It may be hard, but cheer up.”

The sixth leaf, Hianflower.
The language of the man’s flowers is independence, memories, and unachievable love. And reunion.
He found a new life for love and died at the same time as he achieved his dream.
It is literally a love that cannot come true. It’s a fun story and makes me laugh.
-Clatter.
Padme took a sip of tea with lotus leaves and whispered quietly.
She likes stories about people’s lives.
“Manchurian painting (曼珠沙華). Licorice radiata. “When I first saw him, I thought he was crazy.”
Padme narrows her eyes at the blue-haired woman who came to visit her.
“I was a saint who could not love anyone. He was the patriarch who had to carry everyone along… Honestly, I didn’t understand. A noble love that does not spare one’s life. There is such a thing, right? I’m not laughing at you, I’m a little jealous. “I wasn’t allowed to live like that.”
The patriarch of the Mokinyo religion. Padme.
Anemone, who met her death not long after the day she betrayed her doctrine her, was the child of a prestigious nobleman at the time.
“When I first saw you… “It was so beautiful.”
“If you have something to say, say it without turning around. Charlotte.”
“No, I still like it. It’s quite different from then… Because now I feel the same style and elegance.”
Charlotte.
Although she did not care enough to remember her full name, no one who lived in that era would have known her name.
She is the most noble person in the empire and a woman who receives everyone’s loyalty.
Funnily enough, like a human being, she met the end of a hunting dog after the hunt.
It’s been a while since I thought about that incident.
It was the last day when the smell of blood was strong.
With the warm scent of lotus leaf tea, Padme opened the autobiography that had already been covered.
The dawn of the 6th when the light faded.
Before she had time to comprehend what had happened to her, the limbs of God attacked her.
A broken wine bottle rolling on the floor. The blood-stained carpet is cut into small pieces by the sword. The screams of a famous assassin facing death rang out along with the angelic bells of the church.
One, two, three. There are many.
-Chaeng, Chang!!
No matter how much the saint saved the world, it was impossible to achieve victory against countless assassins without equipment.
As it was just after a war with an anti-religious enemy, Danjeon was under pressure. There is a lack of magic attribute.
Even though she defeated 32 people with her outstanding skills, there were still a few left.
The moment a dagger imbued with magical power plunges into the heart. Charlotte realizes that she was a human being who had to die. He cleared his throat and closed his eyes.
That’s the story of the lotus flower. It was Padmé’s past life that she can now talk about without any emotion.
“Anemone buttercup. “You don’t have to call her by her old name her, right?”
“Yes. Now it doesn’t matter what I call it. Unless it’s the name that person calls you.”
“It’s romantic.”
“… Ha.”
“Why is that?”
Anemone got annoyed by Lotus’ innocent words.
Padme grinned at Anemone, who bit her lower lip as if she were annoyed.
“Please don’t laugh… Ha. “Please stop talking about him.”
“If you love someone, wouldn’t it be better to talk about it more?”
“Stop it.”
“I will. “Do you have any other questions?”
“Well said. In the first place, why are you still alive when you already died once?”
To Anemone, who had just opened her eyes, Flower’s executives were amazing beings.
Two executives who are strangers. Except for the first and second leaves, Tarragon and Canna, they were all humans who died a long time ago.
Lotus Padmaine, she was the same.
“That’s a good question.”
Not everyone can become a Flower executive.
However, it was also not necessary to achieve something outstanding to get this position.
“To be honest. “Your lover has already died once.”
“…”
“I like stories about people’s lives… “I heard a lot.”
It may sound unexpected, but
There were quite a few tragedies in this world that were dismissed as simple fairy tales.
“‘The story of a fallen priest.’ This is my story… Those two people. ‘The Witch and the Knight Commander’?”
The story of a girl who deals with spiritual power and becomes a thorn in the side of the World Tree.
“This is what the fairy tale is about.”
It begins when a boy who dreamed of becoming a knight discovers a girl who has been living as a vagabond.
The girl was actually a witch. She sat down in his house with the intention of eating the boy. The story is about a boy who later realizes this and comes up with a surprising trick to kill the witch.
“It’s pretty similar to your story, isn’t it?”
“… “It’s not similar at all.”
“Well, right? Because it’s distorted history.”
Padmé told her original story without losing her smile.
“I was abandoned because I was a witch’s child. A boy who took care of a girl who had been living as a vagabond.”
The seventh leaf, Hianflower.
He dared to love the witch he saved and sacrificed his life to protect her.
The boy became a thorn in the side of the world tree and was on the verge of death, but he was able to survive thanks to the girl’s sacrifice at the last minute.
“You ended your own life. While humbly praying to the World Tree. “To protect that man.”
“…”
Of course, what kind of entity is the World Tree?
“The witch dies. The boy also died. By the world tree. “He died very cruelly, crying bitterly.”
We all faced death.
Until he was brought back to life with the ‘residual power of the king’ through the fortune telling of a saint, he was just a character in a fairy tale.
“We are all living witnesses to distorted history. Born out of hate. “They are the dead, gnashing their teeth in anger and twisting themselves.”
The fairy tale of ‘King Mokryeong’ remained as Lee Si-heon.
Unbeknownst to everyone, the ‘world tree hostile to the king’ is Phrygia.
‘The Witch and the Knight’s Commander’ is anemone and marigold.
‘The father and daughter at odds’ are Cistus and Japonica.
‘Fallen priest’ is a lotus flower.
A victim abandoned by the rule of the World Tree and lost in the dark.
That was the identity of the executives.
“…”
“Pianhua, by saving you, he has achieved his dream. It is safe to say that he is the person who lived the best life among us.”
But the anemone could not meet her lover.
Because a man named King Mokryeong killed him.
“Is this explained?”
“…”
“What are you going to do now?”
His blue hair, his calmly sank, and transparent tears flowed from his red eyes.
“The King and the World Tree. Both with my own hands… I will make you suffer until you regret being alive. No matter what it takes.”
Padme, her face hardened, listened to Anemone’s words her, then snorted and nodded her head.
A strange magical power that I suddenly felt.
The king has come.
“Do whatever you want.”
Padme’s sweet and kind mouth was torn apart.
It was the terrible expression she always showed during her lifetime, when she was fighting wars.
