“Don’t you think there’s been too little tension lately?”

Because of tension.

Rather than that, it is burnout.

“Actually, life isn’t fun at all these days. Nothing is resolved and life is a mess, right? Well, it will work out somehow, just like before.”

I wonder if this is also a mental attack brought about by Dantalian, but it doesn’t seem to be the case. If anyone, not just me, goes through the same thing as me, wouldn’t they not want to live?

‘How will Shir be doing?’

Also, I guess Jules was right, because whenever I thought about Shir, I just felt frustrated. Jules eyes are moving distractedly in my direction.

“What does the tent look like?”

“It looks like a translucent purple cloth. You’re wearing it upside down.”

It must look gloomy.

“···They talk about terms.”

Terms?

Of course, I thought they spoke Hosot or Elvish.

“Where did you learn such a difficult language to learn?”

“Yong does not leave personal records. That’s why terminology can only be learned from dragons or people who know the terminology.”

This means that there is no textbook to learn terminology.

It’s strange that they even brought up the term in the first place.

You speak Hosot to Hosot. There’s no way you’re talking about Hosot, right?

‘I did some background research on Jules.’

If the intention was to curb Juul’s aggression, it would be a very clever and excellent choice.

“How do they know Juul’s identity?”

“Well.”

It seems like the way he is subtly looking at me is telling me not to have anything to do with hallucinations in the future. Still, where can you travel safely?

Actually, people didn’t notice me and Jules.

Thanks to this, the travel route is very comfortable.

The closer you get to the Great Wall, the more likely you are to encounter Wall Guardians, which means you won’t be able to act like Juul.

“Are you guys listening? Don’t ask the person outright or investigate behind their backs.”

I gave a light shot to the eyeball that had no idea where it was and started walking leisurely.

*

Humans are animals that cannot live without fun.

I would sneak into someone else’s house and eat a spoonful of stew and comment on the taste, or I would frost a little bit of the fruit they had farmed.

I don’t know how much I was flirting with the woman who ran out of the house because she saw spoons and ladles floating in the air.

When I clapped a sleeping deer’s ears, it was so cute that it lay down in fright and bounced around on all fours.

The journey eventually began to come to an end.

You have reached the wall of the large intestine.

All the trees around the wall visible from afar have been cut down to create an open area.

“This damn weed is really───?!!”

Soldiers can be seen nearby weeding.

The large intestine wall boasted an incredibly large size. The height of the wall reaches 40 cubits (20 m).

The surprising thing is that it is not made of Saturn like the Great Wall of China, but is made entirely of rocks.

There were guard posts at certain distances and dense wooden fences. Installable ballistas are also installed at regular intervals.

There are separate people patrolling above the wall and those patrolling below the wall. It was truly a barrier of enormous size.

The world turned red in the early evening.

I glanced at the main wall, but seeing that the middle door was closed, it seemed like today’s work hours were over.

The small door installed at the middle door seems to be securely locked with a latch. There was a risk of getting caught if I turned on the light, so I laid down in a remote place and prepared for early camping.

“······What do you plan to do if your parents move to Habstenburg and live there?”

“I have to move on.”

Jules eyes are hollow.

“Well, if that happens, I won’t be able to see you again.”

“You know? If you cross the barrier, you are subject to conscription.”

“But it’s where my family is.”

Jules gaze falls from me.

“······I hope we don’t meet again in a bad way.”

···is it.

As long as Ouroboros’s fault falls into the hands of wild people, war will inevitably occur. This is the trend of the times.

This magnificent and gigantic barrier will fall under the power of the gods, and Zul will become subordinate to the Root Serpent in return. But that’s the path Juul chose.

All we can do is laugh and part ways.

So I laughed. Because I have to prepare to break up soon.

“Well, if that happens, I will take care of your convenience. I could secretly let you go like a spy.”

“How are you going to take care of it? And there’s no way I’ll lose, right?”

Jules sat down against a tree and hugged my back, burying me in his arms. Jules seems to have a premonition of the end.

“If I sleep like this, my back hurts.”

“It’s okay.”

“My throat hurts too.”

Jules smiled and glided down to lie down on his side. Thanks to this, I was able to lie down along with him.

“If you are tired or have nowhere to go, come back.”

“Every time that happens, I will look at my fingers and endure it.”

I answered softly and laid down on Jules’ arm, which was high as if I had put two pillows on it. Tomorrow is the last day.

Since I’ve been with you for a year, I have something to say. Nevertheless, I don’t know what I want to say.

‘What do I want to say?’

At times like this, I always think of something to say only when it’s time to leave. No matter how much I think about it, I just can’t think of anything to say.

I don’t want to say anything unfamiliar.

Plain words. ···I don’t know. I need to sleep.

*

The hallucination said that Dragonia was dispatched from the wall of the large intestine. I don’t know if it was just Grace’s problem, but Dragonia was oblivious.

Dragonia said in front of the soldiers, ‘What are you doing?’ The moment you utter the same sound, it is obvious that hundreds of arrows will fly.

Besides, I don’t know Dreckar’s writing yet.

A year has passed since the disappearance. It would also be quite difficult to look up missing person reports.

In the meantime, if Dragonia talks to Jool or discovers the ‘veil’, it will ask for my identity.

People listening will also have doubts about me.

This is a situation I never want to go through. How can I summon Dragonia?

ah!

──Let’s write the overdue essay.

It was clear that if I wrote a post pretending to explore the area around the colon wall, people would view me as suspicious.

‘They’ll come check on their own.’

I took out a notebook and pen.

Blue eyes tilted and glanced at my notebook.

“I still can’t read what you’re writing.”

“This is not from this world.”

Jules closed his mouth.

This is the first time I have directly mentioned my roots.

I thought he would feel contempt or disgust at me for lying to him, but I could only find pity and sympathy for Jules.

“Anyway, the wall is really big.”

“Sure. This is my first time seeing the Great Wall so close.”

Although the height is high, the endless wall stretching beyond the horizon does not feel like Ain’s work.

‘This has lasted longer than Korea.’

How many essays did you scribble while walking next to the castle walls?

An elf male walks here. If I had just walked in, I wouldn’t have even paid attention.

But he was walking down the air.

Soon, the dragonia that had landed a short distance away began to walk towards me.

Although she was wearing a different turquoise-colored robe than Grace, the golden apple tree engraving was the same.

Dragonia’s dark brown eyes look directly at my face.

“What are you doing?”

” Are you writing a diary?”

Dragonia’s expression, which appeared cool at best, became dumbfounded.

Jules shakes his head and laughs as if he finds it funny.

“······Can you show me your diary?”

“Yes? Why are you looking at my diary?”

While saying that, he handed the essay to Dragonia.

Dragonia, who had received the essay, glanced at me.

“Which country’s script is this?”

“Korea.”

“Such a country has never existed on Pangea.”

I looked at Dragonia from afar.

Dragonia eventually let out a small sigh.

“···Are the Korean characters you claim are passwords created by substituting a specific language?”

“No.”

“Are Korean characters slang?”

“No.”

“What were you doing?”

“I was writing a diary.”

Is it because I kept criticizing him?

Dragonia, whose heart was as deep as the Mariana Trench, wrinkled her brow.

“Would you please read your diary to me?”

“No, why are you reading my diary in such a manly manner? Ugh, why on earth are you doing this to me about writing a diary?”

“Then why are you receiving help from hallucinations here? The hosot that follows you is────.”

“You don’t know anything about that. Did my group use some kind of magic to attack the other party?”

“Hallucination is a harmful force for the majority of Ajin.”

“Yes. I’ll remember it.”

In response to the continued euphemistic rejection, Dragonia eventually smiled bitterly and nodded.

“I will be watching you two. Also, I won’t sit idly by while my companions climb over the wall.”

“Yes. It doesn’t matter because I’m not doing anything bad.”

Dragonia glanced at me and Juul and then walked up the empty space where it had returned without any help.

Now at the Jungmun branch―――

“Kid, how did you get here?”

A soft voice stole my attention.

Two soldiers sitting in the distance, scything, were looking in my direction.

“Didn’t Dragonia say something strange earlier? Are you a group or something…”

“They haven’t been talking nonsense for a day or two.”

“That’s right.”

The eyes of the two soldiers who were chatting comfortably focused on me.

“I walked.”

“You walked? You just walked?”

“Yes.”

Deep anger can be felt on the face of a man holding a scythe and wiping away his sweat. Conversely, the man standing next to him smiled brightly.

“Okay. Why did you come here?”

“I lost my parents. I didn’t know where they were, so I asked… and they said I could find my parents if I went here…”

As he blurted out the words, pretending to be a child, the soldier who was cutting the grass suddenly got up.

“Children of the Ten, please take the child to the Jungmun branch. Let the guys currently scouting fast for a day. Put on armor and scout at a duck walk.”

“Yay~! I’ll be back soon!”

···This wasn’t what I intended.

People who were conscripted through conscription were even punished. The man who was scything jumped up with the scythe on his waist.

“Jang Baek. I’ll at least fill up the water on the way back. Could you please give me a water bottle?”

“Ah.”

Chief Baekun roughly threw the leather canteen.

The man who took it tied the canteen strap around his arm.

It’s not too hot, and even though we’re weeding, we’re all wearing armor.

Hey, this person is FM.

In the South, armor is revered.

“Honey. Let’s go find our parents.”
