Chapter 789 – Ebony

Inexhaustible slashes were exchanged.

There were traces of demonic energy around the scene, and blood was spread all over the floor.

The light was broken. There was a burning sound from the stripped wire. The surrounding stone wall was covered with sword marks.

The wallpaper that had torn off and stuck to the floor was also soaked in blood and giving off a musty scent.

-Puck!

A corner of a miserable scene.

An ebony man with a delicate body was stabbing the target with the blade of his sword held backwards.

-Spook! Sigh! Understand!

A stubborn act that continues in silence.

It can no longer be called a slash, it was just a thrust with weight applied.

I wonder if I’ll play it again.

Will she who died rise again?

He climbed onto Yeonhwa’s body her, which was already weak, and stabbed it with his ink-colored sword one after another.

Small pieces of meat and bones fell off from time to time.

-Puck, puck!!

At first glance, Yeonhwa’s dead body was so full of stab wounds that it was hard to tell.

If a corpse was damaged to this extent, no one would suspect it even if it was called the corpse of another living creature.

This too was caused by ebony.

Clutching his shattered ribs, Ebony, who was wielding the sword, was panting unevenly as if he were dying.

“Ugh… Turn it off… “Huh.”

Breath that has become cloudy due to internal injuries caused by demonic energy eats away at the soul.

No matter how talented Socheonma was, it was difficult to compete against Yeonhwa, Flower’s second-in-command.

In order to survive, Ebony had no choice but to use power beyond what his body and soul allowed her.

She killed her lifelong best friend her with her own hands.

“Town… Cough, Clock. Heh, heh.”

The ebony vomited black blood and suffered as his hands and feet trembled.

Her hands and feet were black and swollen, her lungs were crushed, and broken bones pierced her arteries.

Dead blood flowing from the nose.

“Ah… Haha, kahak… Ah. Ah…”

What flows from the eyes is probably the melted water from corroded emotions.

‘Like this… ‘. Even if I die, it’s okay.’

The ebony face, eroded by demon energy, was stained with an ugly purple light.

Although every time I breathed, I felt the pain of a blade cutting into my internal organs. Ebony didn’t stop his hands her.

‘You don’t get comfortable when you die, you can live a miserable life for the rest of your life.’

I swung my sword down.

I mutilated my friend’s body.

I couldn’t even say a will or a final greeting. Although our relationship ended incompletely.

Ebony’s momentum seemed impossible to stop.

-Kwajik!!!

The skull is completely broken and the head disappears.

A lot of flowing brain water stuck to my hands.

‘I’m fine.’

A funny look appeared on my face as I screamed.

The haunting ebony eyes turned to his friend’s corpse.

‘… ‘You can’t come back alive.’

Master must live.

A man should not fall apart just because of himself.

Even while doing terrible things, Ebony prayed.

‘… Please.’

This isn’t even an ordeal.

This happened because of my foolishness.

Master proudly stepped into the trap that Flower had dug.

I got caught up in something ridiculous.

‘Is there anything that doesn’t die? Where can I find something like this?’

Power?

The way of the world?

I had learned so much that I could not understand a single thing.

‘I don’t know… I don’t know. I don’t know anything.’

The only thing you can know is no matter how strong the master is.

It was impossible to guarantee victory in a fight that lasted forever.

Ebony screamed inwardly and squeezed all the strength she had from breastfeeding to tighten her grip.

“Hmm!”

-Slippery.

Was there too much momentum?

The ebony lost the sword and fell forward. Now all that was left was to cry inside.

Ebony’s breathing became weak, like a rabbit hit by an arrow.

‘Please please…’

It’s so cold that wet clothes get caught in my arms.

Precious clothes given as a gift by Master. Without realizing it, his hands were tightly gripping his clothes.

‘Please tell me it’s not too late. It’s been hard until now. I lost my family, I was experimented on, and my friends were killed.’

A prayer that you don’t know who you’re praying to.

If you are a human being who has lived in this world, it is natural that your prayers should be directed to the World Tree.

‘I haven’t held anything. Everything is fine. If you can make just one thing happen…’

A hazy light appeared on the blurred retina.

“Ha… Ha.”

It was like a cityscape I saw with my brother a long time ago.

When I look at the high world with wet and blurry eyes, the light outside the window sometimes blurs. It was a halo of light with the car’s indicator lights fluttering together.

It was a world where love was impossible,

However, it was a beautiful sight that I couldn’t complain about.

‘Ah. It came to mind.’

My brother.

My brother’s face.

Everything from facial features to personality and frequently made facial expressions.

It was only when I was dying that I remembered it.

The corners of the long, torn ebony mouth bowed downward.

‘… ‘More than that.’

Is it okay, Master?

Ebony’s interest was his, as the death horse chased him to the end of his neck, was not the image of his older brother his, which he had just remembered, nor the guilt of killing his close friend his.

Because the boiling emotions and residual heat of the fight were still controlling those thoughts.

No words came out anymore. Ebony, barely able to hold on to her sleepy eyelids, wriggled like an earthworm.

Memories pass by like a flash of light.

First, Oppa, then Yeonhwa. In the end, the memories with my uncle flashed with precious light.

There is no such thing as a clear solution to everything.

There are enough things that are uncomfortable and out of sync. Perhaps Lee Si-heon also lived a life like that.

-Trudge, trudge.

Someone’s toes were visible in the bottom of Ebony’s field of vision. It was a man wearing familiar clothes.

The corner of the ebony’s mouth rose for the first time.

* * * * * * * * * * * *

Charlotte is dead.

Even the anemones that were my enemies.

Two of Flower’s executives met death under my hands.

“I can’t move my body very well.”

【So, why are you stubborn? Idiot, idiot. If I had worn the crown earlier, my body wouldn’t have been damaged like this.】

“You’re still young so you don’t know.”

Even if it seems like we fought like idiots…

Um.

I fought like a fool.

【Lee Si-heon, am I more mature than you? Mutt sea anemone. You idiot!】

“Noisy. “Your rabbit will be confused for a week.”

【Ah why!!!】

Block.

Jammin’s swearing code was cut off and peace came to his mind and body.

I carefully picked up Charlotte’s body her, which had become a shell.

The area she spread out was instantly crushed, and my body was moved to the entrance of the lab.

“It’s a shame.”

If I hadn’t been an executive, I think the code would have been correct.

Since I was resurrected from the beginning with the power of a saint and the legacy of a king, there was no way I could have met the world in which I met other than as an executive.

‘He was like a person who influenced the world.’

I was able to unleash all my remaining potential.

Charlotte, whose body was reduced to ashes, could be said to have, in a sense, experienced complete Buddhahood.

‘… I was really sad about my body too.’

If nothing else, it is completely blooming.

Charlotte’s beauty in full bloom still lingers in her eyes.

I tried to pat Charlotte’s butt her, who was holding my body her, but her body her fell from mine and was only buried in powder.

─That’s right. That’s the king.

It’s strange.

I blocked obviously it, but it felt like I could hear the Son of Man’s compassionate voice in my ears.

“It’s done.”

Because the work is done. Should I go back?

I took a step towards the right.

One step after the lingering scent of demonic energy.

As the space folded, it was revealed that the space we reached in an instant would be the scene of a deadly struggle where a disaster occurred.

-Whoop.

‘…’

As soon as I arrived, I squinted.

There is a level of demonic energy that ebony can handle.

But now I feel like it’s more than I know… No. The amount of residue was well over twice as much.

The sword rolled away.

Ebony was lying on top of the crushed corpse, dying.

Yeonhwa’s body was so mangled that its shape was unrecognizable.

If you fought this desperately… There is a high possibility that he could not even have a proper conversation, let alone a will.

Did you fight with that much determination?

-Jeobbuk.

Approaching the ebony.

Ebony’s body briefly convulsed at the sound of one footstep.

Not only did I have internal injuries, my body was muddy.

Even if all the healing power was poured into it, there was a high probability that all he would be able to do was walk for several weeks.

A body like mine that has undergone repeated healing in an ignorant manner is accustomed to being broken, and the eroded spots subside quickly.

Because Ebondan was a body that was difficult to complete and fully accept the demon energy.

-Chuck.

Not caring about being soaked in blood, I knelt down and picked up the ebony.

The cheekbones were sunken, the ribs were all damaged, including the collarbone, and if it were not for the natural power of the ‘Wood Man’ and the Heavenly Demon Divine Power, the information of the body would never have been preserved.

There is no place to beat this little body.

I guess it’s because we’re friends. It seems like he was able to find his weak points and his well.

‘I know it’s not something to say lightly.’

I made eye contact with Ebony.

His mouth wasn’t open, but he seemed to have a lot to say, and his face turned blue and looked like a monster.

This is the first time in my life that I have seen my face ruined like this.

The reason I can laugh it off is because I have the confidence to treat it.

And I’m proud.

I’m sorry.

Thank you again.

The fact that I pushed myself to the point where my body broke down and did the work before I even finished talking to my friend.

It could be said that Charlotte received the essence of her power from her friend.

There, Ebony was there for me.

“Thank you.”

There was not a single ray of light in the colorless eyes of Ebony.

It could have been said that he was already dead, but no.

The recovery of the body comes first rather than removing the eroded demonic energy.

I held the limp ebony in my arms and used my powers to heal its body.

-Woong!

A warm green energy enveloped the ebony body.

The power that I had accumulated for a very long time was sucked away, and in an instant, I ran towards the floor.

This means that beyond trauma, the essential energy that makes up the body has been damaged.

“It’s okay.”

I stroked the ebony hair for a long time.

The eroded skin returned to its white color, and the bones and muscles returned to their proper places.

Ebony’s small body gradually gained vitality. Then, a small hand, like a squirrel, dug into my side.

“Ah…”

“Yes.”

“Ah, town. Ah…”

The conversation will take some more time.

The ebony seemed to want to come out and talk to me as soon as possible, so it made only vague noises one after another.

A little more time passes.

Ebony hugged me.

“… Ah…”

“Yes.”

“I… Mr… In the middle… “I know how to do it.”

You can wait a little longer. It looks like it’s really urgent.

I don’t mind because it’s really cute in my eyes, but it also hurts. It will put a lot of strain on your body.

I nodded.

“Thanks to you, I survived.”

“…”

I don’t know whether those words touched my heart or not.

Probably Ebony saved my life. The fact that I killed my friend with my own hands may have been more heartbreaking.

Ebony’s half-closed eyelids slowly rise. The light returned to my eyes.

Transparent tears fell little by little from the blood-stained eyes.

The ebony girl buried her head in my chest and sobbed under her breath.

“… Ugh, sigh… Black. Eww. Ugh… Ah.”

“Sorry. I forced you to make a choice. “I know that this is not something a teacher would do.”

The crying grew louder.

The sobbing ebony couldn’t overcome her emotions and burst into tears.

The first thing I see as I squeeze my collar.

The sincerity that I had never shown to anyone touched my heart.

“Ugh, huh… Aaaaa…”

I cry with my voice hoarse.

When I hugged Ebony, who was crying like a child, she hugged me harder than I did and snuggled into my arms as if she wanted to feel human warmth.

“Well… How… Let’s do it… That guy… Ugh, huh… Turn it off.”

Our Yeonhwa.

Softening. Softening. Yeonhwa.

I felt guilty and sad as I heard that name called in succession.

This was because the reality that I had not felt because I was immersed in the fight was hitting my head and the emotions that had been building up came out belatedly.

“Cry. Cry as much as you want.”

It’s not strange if you blame me.

True.

If it’s ebony, it’s ebony.

I raised the ebony head and placed my hand directly on his cheek.

Ebony held her breath in surprise when she saw faint tears forming around my eyes.

Then he burst out crying like a child again.

“Ugh, uhhh…”

Me and Ebony, cheek to cheek.

The ebony body that hugged my face and rubbed my tearful cheek dozens of times.

I was just following him at a little distance… A loyal Jindo dog.

That ebony was now completely by my side, pouring out all her emotions.

-Bang, bang.

A fist pounding on my chest.

Although it is very slight, there is also a touch of blame added. Rather, I was grateful for that.

Ebony cried.

I shed more tears than I shed blood.

It was obvious that the sorrow was deeper than the pain we had experienced on this journey.

Ebony’s feelings that have been troubling her until now.

What I experienced while escaping from the lab and living alone… Because all those years will have hardened and congealed.
