episode_0150

The most intense and crazy night of my life has passed. I fell asleep as if I had fainted without realizing it.

When her body reached its limit, Ariel used healing magic, and even after repeating that, she lost strength, so she regained her strength with the power of Royu… but eventually, when the number exceeded 50 times, her eyesight became dark. A faint drowsiness came over me, so I couldn’t resist.

And after sleeping for a while until the fatigue disappeared, I finally opened my eyes. I could feel the chirping of birds in my ears and the cold air that felt all over my body.

“Good morning, Venice.”

Just as I was rubbing my eyes and barely raising my upper body and yawning, I heard Royu’s voice.

The direction the sound came from was right above me. I was startled and turned around to see Royu kneeling down and looking down at me.

Judging by the pressure marks on her thighs, I guess I slept on Royu’s lap instead of a pillow. For some reason, it was so fluffy and soft that it couldn’t be compared to a pillow or something…

I sent a message expressing my concern because I felt like Royu was in pain or uncomfortable, but Royu suddenly licked his tongue and narrowed his eyes again, so I quickly averted my gaze.

“Good morning.”

“Captain…Jo, good morning!”

“Keueueunnng···. Good morning.”

They all looked at me and smiled and said good morning.

···Of course, since we had gone to bed yesterday without any time to clean up after the wedding, everyone was barely covering themselves with a large blanket without even a single thread on, so I urgently avoided eye contact.

Yesterday, my senses were paralyzed, as if my eyes were rolling, and I didn’t even feel ashamed, but now that I came to my senses, I couldn’t face those images properly.

“Good morning everyone…”

And… I felt like something would happen again in broad daylight if I showed any signs, so I hurriedly got dressed while saying good morning and singing the national anthem in my mind.

They looked at me like that and licked their tongues as if they were disappointed, but they changed their clothes as if they had no choice. For your information, thanks to the artifact and Ariel’s magic, there was no need to wash.

***

After we finished grooming ourselves, we all ate together. It was already well past noon, so it was neither breakfast nor lunch.

Anyway, Royu made a unique meal with ingredients piled up at home, and everyone shared it. It was mysterious yet addictive, so everyone raved about it and ate it right up to the bottom of the bowl.

Hwiiing…

And now. I feel the cold winter wind and air, and look at the horizon that spreads out so wide that the end is not visible.

The beautiful cliff where it all began and where it all ended. Nothing has changed about this cliff.

… I don’t know if it was because of what is commonly called wise man time, or because I was looking at this very calm and beautiful scene, but I felt like I was getting emotional without realizing it.

Well… if you think about it, if it was a long time, it was long, but if it was short, you went through a lot in a short period of time.

He suddenly fell into the game he was enjoying with Royu, and without even knowing why, he continued his activities as a clone using his ability as a clone artist.

···Of course, it wasn’t a self-immolation ability, and the status window had tricked me from the beginning, but whatever.

Vivid memories begin to come to mind, as if they happened just yesterday. I remember the emotions and all the feelings I felt at that time.

···First me. I remember when I started working as the leader of the Scar mercenary group.

I remember the day when I headed to the Scar mercenary group without even knowing what was going on and started to fix the mercenary group, which at first glance seemed like a mess.

I remember the chills I felt that day when I completed the first quest in vain, continued my quest with success, and encountered the 4-star monster Nepenthes.

Saving mithril with Seris, equipping good equipment… and the days when I fell into a poison trap.

And my first activity came to an end when I met a dragon in a direct imperial request given to us.

Memories of the hot and intense South… And although it was a bit jarring at first, Cerise, whom I love so much, is by my side.

Well… it was an eventful life. It was an experience that only lasted a few months at most, but the memories were so powerful that I will never forget them.

And I, who had given up, was given a second life. I still remember how cold it felt as if my whole body was freezing as soon as I opened my eyes.

I remember my heartbeat when I encountered Ariel in the cave I entered to escape the cold without knowing why, and when I defeated the warlock using black magic.

As Ariel’s personal butler and member of the Ravens, I dealt with many warlocks. Although it was an act of killing humans, there was still no sense of guilt because they could not even be humans.

Sweet pancakes. Pria and Cale met at the academy. And… the black magicians I encountered.

I made a decision to protect the people I loved and those precious to me, and in the end I succeeded in protecting everyone, but I could not protect myself.

···But I never regret it. No matter how many times I had to go back, I would have made the same choice.

Always cold in the cold North. However, I remember the precious people and warm memories that make even the freezing cold melt my body.

After meeting by chance, Ariel and I went from being butler and owner to truly loving each other. Because she, who was always cold… is now able to smile warmly.

The last life… I was so desperate for it. For me, whose heart was slowly collapsing and rotting away, the ‘double body’ was the rope that would save me.

I remember my first uncomfortable encounter with Kali, when I woke up in an eastern mansion and was shocked by my own appearance.

We see prisoners from the lower class being persecuted and discriminated against. However, the hearts of the upper-class residents had already been broken for a long time.

I remember looking at that pitiful sight and feeling filled with determination to help them.

I got counseling, met Hoodie and Rania… Carly’s only family. They also rescued Calea.

The happy smile that Carly showed that day. I still can’t forget that smile.

As we walk through the night market together, we get lost in our childhood memories. I also saw the meteor shower dance that was so beautiful and unforgettable.

Even though I was kidnapped, I think it was a good experience because it ultimately gave me an opportunity to become closer to Kali.

And… Ronan, who fooled us from the beginning. No, I died because of Rugal.

But… I was able to help Carly, whose heart was falling apart. I had no regrets.

I remember the days in the East that were difficult for everyone, but that allowed us to move forward further. And… in the end, I was able to connect with my beloved Kali.

And after that… the girls who saved me even though I almost made a bad choice because of my broken heart.

I remember the identity of the status window that was revealed and the days when we were all able to be saved with the help of Royu, who was unimaginable.

“···Ha.”

Well… there was a lot of work. There were many things that were so sad, pitiful, and heartbreaking. My heart was broken, I wanted to cry, I wanted to give up everything, but…

They say they were saved by me. And I was able to be saved because of them.

And there were days where I was happy and laughed with everyone and when I look back, I have no regrets. Maybe we could have survived.

“······”

The sun is already setting. The sunset was fluttering red streaks beautifully on the horizon, and above them, twinkling stars began to appear one by one, decorating the sky.

···I have seen this since the first time I came here, but I look at the beautiful sight that I will never forget.

Kkook-

Hold hands with them. Since I didn’t have enough hands… I hugged her tightly.

When I came here. I was alone when I first saw this beauty. I was lonely, despairing, and there was no hope.

But…now. The people I love so much, women who are even more beautiful than this beautiful figure, are by my side.

We are the setting sun. We look at the enchanting scene that has begun to reveal itself as if to bless us.

With a bright smile, without a single trace of despair or sadness.

And… it was too late. I muster up the courage to tell the women I love so much.

“Everyone… Will you marry me?”

I didn’t feel anxious or anything. Their eyes widened in surprise when they heard my voice, and tears of joy filled them.

Sending all the bad memories and emotions that I still haven’t been able to shake off into the setting sun.

We shared a kiss that was sweeter than any memories or emotions.

This article concludes my long, long story.

Just like I and we were able to be saved and live. May only happiness and joy be with you too.

Is that my alter ego? Done.
