It is right to refer to existing things for creation, but one should not be eaten by existing things.

The moment I heard those words, I felt a subtle feeling as if I knew something or not.

As soon as I take one more step forward, the downhill road spreads out and I feel like I can pick up speed, but that one step is so hard that my legs feel like they have become stiff, and as I am crumpling my face in frustration, my grandfather is screaming inside.

It’s been a long time since my grandfather’s emotions were this strong, so I put aside my worries for a moment and focused on his voice.

‘Are you okay? If it comes out of my mouth, it will be very distorted, right?’

‘If something happens, I’m the one who has to deal with it, right?’

what. I thought it would be fun so I would do it.

“The old man is sitting in the corner of the room panting while looking at the magic circle he drew and asks what he knows?”

“What do you know!? I know better than you, who suddenly disappeared one day! Even after you fell, I stayed on earth for a long time! You old bastard!”

“Why is this guy with no fucking brains bluffing without knowing a damn thing? I have a mouth, so speak out loud. I will laugh a lot while listening to your story. They say so.”

“Oh! First of all, the most fundamental problem is that Ruel is using you as the final destination! I won’t deny that you are a great paladin! But your way is not the right way for everyone!”

What the skeleton pointed out was that the grandfather considered the final destination of the paladin to be his own image.

The result that my grandfather came up with is definitely the right answer, but it cannot be the right answer for everyone. It is natural that it will be sluggish as it only changes the process in the middle while leaving the path at the end.

The skeleton gritted its teeth and screamed.

“Grandpa Heo-jeop, who opened his eyes to a new taste, threw away all his pride to buy my favor? So, if you want to prove that you are not a weak, empty-headed saenim, give me the evidence.”

“Evidence?! The evidence is full and overflowing! How many years have I had to deal with cooperating with an old brat with a bad temper like you?”

The skeleton that was making noises took a step back and opened one hand. Then the stone on the floor broke and rose up, carved into the shape of a blunt weapon and landed in his hand.

“Luel! Your blunt weapon is as hard as your head! Even in the face of any ordeal, he stood firm and endured like a guardian statue, so that habit was engraved in his soul! Look! This move was performed just now! All you can think about is holding on with your arms and legs!”

“Are you saying it’s unseemly for a girl who doesn’t know anything about women to chatter like she’s a libertine? hmm. I think this feels a bit like that to me too. Isn’t it a bit unsavory for a skeleton who can’t even think of talking to a woman to get so confident that he starts shouting?”

“What does this have to do with the fact that I’m not good with women? I’m talking from an objective point of view!”

The discussion between the grandfather and the skeleton grew more and more heated.

At first, it started out as a question of whether we did something right or wrong, but soon it turned into a conversation about whether this is right or that is right as we look at each of my movements.

Caught between them, I had to convey my grandfather’s words and at the same time become the lab rat of the two people and make various movements.

“No! What this little guy is after must be a little softer! You have to move like you’re dancing!”

What was interesting was that although the two people seemed to be extremely opposed, their differences in opinions were gradually narrowing.

At first, the grandfather dismissed the skeleton’s story as a story that did not need to be heard, but soon he agreed that the destination should be changed as the skeleton said.

The skeleton, which had dismissed the grandfather as an old man, also nodded that it was not right to change completely at some point.

The two just raise their voices and are having a very healthy discussion.

but. If we hadn’t gotten along so well that we didn’t listen to each other’s words, we wouldn’t have been able to survive the battle against the evil spirit.

There would have been no room for Erginus’ name to be involved in the miracles that my grandfather was confidently performing.

“This is better than that!…”

As I was quietly listening to the conversation between the two, a thought suddenly occurred to me and I tilted my head.

It’s a dance.

Not in the world of Soul Academy, but in other creations I know, there were several people who used dance as their martial art.

It is said that they hid the principle of nothingness in dance to avoid oppression. It is a martial art that pursues both beauty and strength. It’s like a martial art that mesmerizes the opponent.

There’s nothing I can’t do, right?

No, I think it’s me who can do it, right?

No matter what I feel on the inside, on the outside I am pretty enough to make a perverted crow drool.

Umm. Let’s make a move first.

I took a deep breath, spread divinity throughout my body, and straightened my posture.

I found the starting position a long time ago.

I managed to make it through hard work, with my aesthetic sense and with the help of my grandfather.

The same goes for subsequent movements. Although it is incomplete, it has some direction. Is it possible that I’m just doing this in my spare time and not making any progress?

However, I thought it would be difficult to use in practice because there were problems here and there.

Be more relaxed and gentle with your usual movements.

no. no. This is too flimsy. I just want to deal with martial arts like dance. This is how the before and after are reversed.

This isn’t good either. This is also a bit strange.

iced coffee. really. I think we’ll find out if we go a little further.

ah. okay. Addendum. Please give me some advice! What should I do here!?

[Remember the flapping of the fairy’s wings.]

fairy? When you say fairy, the thing that immediately comes to mind is a chicken coop… no. It’s a fairy queen and a bunch of rotting fairies, so I’m not saying you should remember this.

Then before that.

The dancing of the fairies that I saw beyond the monitor.

A cutscene that was created with a strange amount of effort, perhaps with the intention of contrasting it with the hellish landscape of the future.

I recall their movements in memories that have become blurry after a long time.

The image of fairies bouncing and walking among the flowers.

And the moment I lightly moved along with that memory, a smile naturally appeared on my face.

This is it! This is it! This was the movement I was looking for so long!

Excited by the feeling of being rewarded for my hard work over the past few months, I forgot all the sounds around me and focused on my movements.

I stretch out my arms following the moving fairy in my past memories.

The skeleton realized that he was strangely overheated.

The cocky kid’s arrogant tone and the fact that his close friend was spouting nonsensical nonsense were sure to make him angry, but it wasn’t enough to shake his senses.

Even before becoming a hero. Even after becoming a hero. Even after saving the world. For a skeleton who had heard all kinds of stories among so many people, there was almost no situation where he was so excited that he couldn’t control his emotions.

Skeleton, who noticed this, was convinced that something was shaking his emotions.

This is something that even he who perceives most of the phenomena that exist in the world does not know.

A skeleton from the past would have tried to analyze this, ignoring everything else, but instead, the skeleton just gave in to its own emotions.

What would he, a fake created by the great wizard of the past to leave behind his will, be so driven by his curiosity to do?

In that case, it would be better to just scratch the surface of our friends and give a little more help to the child who is suffering because of our incompetence.

While the skeleton was speaking to help the cheeky little boy find his way forward, the girl who had been being swayed by Ruel and the skeleton suddenly started moving on her own.

At first, she thought it was the skeleton inside her that was saying something, but it didn’t take long to be convinced that wasn’t the case.

The girl’s movements were never something Ruel could imagine.

The girl moves her arms.

A strong yet playful movement. If someone was scared, it was an attack that would make them giggle and call them a coward.

The girl moves her feet.

A light bouncing movement. If you look at it, you will find yourself following it without thinking.

A girl who seemed to be flying in the air suddenly settles down on the ground.

The figure holding the shield upward looked fragile, as if it could be broken by anyone. However, if you ask whether it can really be destroyed, it is clear that no one will be able to say for sure.

It’s playful. Beautiful. Is it flashy? A movement whose roots lie deep in the earth.

The skeleton is

Erginus,

I have seen this scene in the past.

It is a memory that will never be forgotten, and his sin that must never be forgotten.

Dance of fairies.

The girl’s dance, which seemed to be uninterrupted, suddenly stopped at some point.

The girl standing in place tilts her head as if she doesn’t like something.

As the dance ended, the skeleton returned to reality, forgot what it had just done, and moved its feet to stand in front of the girl.

And then he placed his hand on his shoulder with his only bone-like hand.

“What are you doing? Finally, your dirty desires.”

“You. How do you know how fairies dance?”

The skeleton’s voice contains blazing heat.
