Chapter Index

    There are countless ways to sharpen one’s will in the world.

    Whether it’s magic, a sword, a spell, or anything else, it’s possible to break through the limitations and bring out my own inner wisdom.

    There is only one path where all the five intentions come together.

    Dramatic.

    I closed my eyes and intuitively spread the drama to those around me little by little.

    ‘This is not the end.’

    Although all righteousness leads to one path, extreme righteousness.

    This does not mean that this is the end.

    There is a way to advance to the next level of the play.

    I am the only one who has reached this place so far.

    From this point on, someone else may be far ahead.

    I decided to stay focused and deal with the drama.

    When I fired the five-pointed weapon, I had no choice but to strike a destructive blow no matter what I did due to my strong will.

    In extreme cases, it is possible to cast it without much fuss.

    Dramatic justice is a sword that cuts through the essence.

    Before cutting, there is a step of skimming and grasping.

    Light radiates around me.

    However, unlike general light, it is light that bends and changes direction.

    The inside of the representation of things touched by that light is turned upside down.

    Information about its essence flows to me like a flood.

    Because it is an unfamiliar type of information, processing is very slow.

    While the information that can be obtained from representations is intuitive, there are many unclear definitions of essence.

    Just as there is no such thing as a born evil person and no one is just good, the essence is bound to be a complex complex that is not simple and clear.

    Therefore, we cannot boast that we know everything about it just because we have looked into its essence.

    Rather, I feel even more confused because I have seen the essence.

    You spend your whole life trying to understand things by only looking at their appearance, and only after seeing their essence do you realize that it is impossible.

    This is the point where I break free from the illusion of understanding and realize that I am ignorant.

    ‘I give up trying to understand.’

    You can’t understand everything.

    Each person’s life is different and the enlightenment they have gained is different.

    Even if it seems contradictory and unreasonable to me, it may be his own solution.

    The same thing will happen when others look at me.

    How easy is it to fall in love with women who have deceived each other and trampled on each other’s feelings their entire lives?

    By skipping the process of trying to understand, the processing speed seems to have gotten faster.

    The dramatic light that seemed to have stopped suddenly spreads out to the surroundings.

    Before you know it, the light fills the room and disappears outside.

    widely. wider.

    The endlessly spreading light colors the entire earth and sky.

    As a result, my horizons continue to expand.

    By connecting essence and essence information, I gained a view as if I was looking down on the entire surrounding area from the sky.

    ‘All movements within a radius of approximately 10 kilometers can be identified.’

    That’s it.

    If you want, you can cut down everything that touches the light.

    However, the problem is that if you scatter it so widely, everything around it will fall into the category of destruction…

    Choosing and cutting only what you want still seems to require some more training.

    “Hmm?”

    That moment.

    I felt an unfamiliar object enter my field of vision.

    Something is coming here.

    When I saw that face, I couldn’t help but smile.

    “Cornelia.”

    .

    .

    .

    A full day has passed since the pillar of light rose.

    The place from which it rose was clearly the Union headquarters.

    Since the last communication was ‘under attack by an airship fleet,’ Alicia, Transylvia, and Guiho had no choice but to hurry back.

    Communication was completely cut off.

    The communication network was completely disabled and could not be accessed at all.

    No communication network, wired or wireless, could be found through the Union leadership.

    I couldn’t help but feel worried.

    What on earth happened?

    Following the destruction of the archives, the Federation Headquarters…?

    All I could think was ominous thoughts.

    “He probably broke it himself. Didn’t you say that even the emergency communication network is not working?”

    “That’s right, Mr. Gwiho.”

    “The emergency communication network is supposed to work in any situation, but there is no way that even that could have been destroyed by an external enemy. It would have been right to stop for security reasons.”

    It was definitely as he said.

    Considering that communication was cut off all at once, it is highly likely that they were not incapacitated in an instant and that communication was stopped due to an internal decision.

    Under the circumstances, the 1st Fleet betrayed?

    Or rebellion?

    Alicia felt her head getting hot.

    “There is a carriage ahead. I passed this road about 30 minutes ago.”

    “······!”

    At that time, Transylvia returned on horseback.

    There were clearly traces of boots and horse hoofs on the floor.

    Someone passed by here.

    And that too very recently.

    The party’s alertness was sharply heightened.

    Since we don’t yet know the situation at headquarters and who has betrayed us, we must assume that everyone we encounter is an enemy.

    Before we knew it, the carriage had climbed up the hill and the entire view of the Union headquarters came into view.

    “Are you okay?”

    Unexpectedly, the headquarters without any damage came into sight.

    The side that was shattered was the airship fleet.

    The wreckage of nine airships that crashed in the middle of nowhere was something that was hard to believe even after seeing it.

    If there was no artillery fire, that was not the case.

    When nine airships fire a salvo, the number of shells fired is 72.

    And what was rolling around in abundance around the wreckage were none other than brass-colored shell casings.

    At first glance, it looks like there were easily over 100, so there were at least two salvos.

    But the barrier blocked that level of fire power…?

    Let’s just say that it was blocked.

    The fact that the situation reached that level meant that it was at the level of an all-out war.

    The fleet attacked with the intention of completely destroying the headquarters.

    So why did the airship crash after only firing the second salvo without firing the third or fourth salvo?

    Is there a weapon in the world that can shoot down all nine airships?

    Alicia was able to quickly find the answer.

    “Ah…!”

    By far the strongest person Alicia has ever seen.

    It was not a story of personal helplessness.

    It was a story about the strength of people themselves.

    That person has now overcome even death and returned.

    While Alicia was clutching her chest with complicated emotions, excited voices erupted from both sides.

    “Oh! Is Eugene back!”

    “But what year is the bitch you are holding? My eyes are blurry and I can’t see very well.”

    “Mmm. I’m not sure, but looking at Solar escorting him next to me, I wonder if he’s Brigham, the mayor of Cologne?”

    “······.”

    Eugene was not alone.

    The carriage arrived earlier.

    And Cornelia Brigham, hugged by Eugene, shedding tears of joy and constantly moving her lips as if recalling the past days.

    Come to think of it, Mayor Briam said that although it was a verbal promise, he even made a benign contract with Eugene?

    I heard that she confessed first and Eugene accepted.

    I heard that Brigham Market became the only sanctuary for Eugene, who was constantly wandering and anxious.

    At first, when I heard that story, I sympathized with Mayor Brigham.

    Following the collapse of the first marriage, the second marriage…

    Because his body was never found, I thought I had suffered a harsh fate of having to wait and forget him until he died.

    But now the position was reversed.

    “Did you say that meeting is valuable because there is separation? It was definitely like that. Cornelia, if I hadn’t been encouraged by your words, I wouldn’t be here now. Your wish and your fate brought me here.”

    “Ugh······. Did I say that…?”

    “Yes. You told me that because you were frustrated because I was being cowardly and not connecting with people. Don’t you remember?”

    “Uuhuh······. At that time, I just said that because I liked you so much and I didn’t like one-sided love, right?”

    “Anyway, what do you think? In the end, it is also true that I gained enlightenment thanks to that.”

    “But I… What should I do…?”

    Looks happy.

    No, a torrent of emotions that cannot be fully expressed in the word happiness swirls between the two people.

    Due to the limitations of human language, there wasn’t much conversation.

    Instead of exchanging words, they used their eyes to resolve all the emotions they had been feeling and communicate.

    Although there was a gap of 3 years.

    Through that interaction, the gap was filled in an instant.

    We had been through a lot and suffered countless wounds, but I felt that we were filling each other’s wounds.

    What do you call something like that?

    love······.

    okay. It was love.

    Just watching the two people having a passionate interaction without any violent action from afar, Alicia felt pain as if her heart was burning for some reason.

    “Ah! You guys are back too!”

    The moment Eugene’s booming voice rang out, Alicia flinched and trembled.

    I felt like I was caught spying.

    It was Alicia who inadvertently looked away when those eyes turned towards her.

    What on earth does this feel like?

    Why do I suddenly feel this way after seeing a beautiful man and woman making love?

    Alicia chewed her lips.

    This didn’t feel right.

    I had to forget it.

    With that in mind, I put a smile on my face and went down the hill.

    “Eugene!”

    He smiled brightly and ran away.

    Oh, isn’t this it?

    Did I hate Eugene three years ago and treat him harshly?

    But isn’t it strange that three years have passed and we are treated the same way as before?

    Which one is right?

    How should I decide my feelings?

    Thump thump, feeling my heart beating.

    And I feel it hurting inside.

    Alicia didn’t know what to do, so she swallowed back the tears that threatened to burst out at any moment.
