“Was it really necessary?”

“Yes.”

“···I don’t like it.”

“Why?”

“It seems like you can’t let go of your old habits and are trying to shoulder it alone.”

Shir looked up at me curtly.

It was a cute idea.

“All I can carry is your love.”

I didn’t go back to the castle right away.

The place I was heading to was the place where Gusteau was killed by me.

Craxxmara was still there, holding his breath.

“Crox Mara…!”

Shirr seemed very happy to see that huge wyvern.

But Kraxmara was silent.

“Why did you come here?”

“I came here to bury the deceased.”

“···An enemy who tried to kill you?”

I mouthed the words.

─Are you watching?

Craxxmara shakes her head.

“It looks like someone tricked them into doing this crazy thing.”

Craxxmara’s eyes look directly at me, and her head turns towards me.

Flames flowed from his trembling mouth.

“···What?”

“I don’t know where the misunderstanding occurred, but I will try to be courteous even now.”

I don’t know why you’re trying to kill me.

But they were not guilty.

For a moment, I hope the yellow eyes look straight at me.

Craxxmara’s neck swelled.

Sigh!

The pieces of flesh that were so politely spat out.

The melted piece of meat releases acrid and hot gas.

The only human figures visible were sparse pieces of clothing or fingers.

“···Take it. Show courtesy to my close friend.”

“Yes?”

That one? how? Has it turned into a mush?

Craxxmara urges me with her eyes.

“No…! I wonder if the deceased’s surviving family members would also wave their hands at this…?”

“Yes! Wouldn’t it be better not to show it?!”

Even Shir shakes his head.

For a moment, yellow eyes stared at me.

Clap!

Craxxmara hurts the vomit with its front paws.

At the end, James’ head rolled around.

His head had a very peaceful expression and there were no injuries.

“Did you think I wouldn’t even know that?”

…until just now.

“You came with James. Do you know where his family lives?”

“I don’t know. They say that if you give Dragonia its head, it will find the bereaved family.”

“···Did you plan on visiting me like that?”

“There is nothing I wouldn’t do for a close friend.”

I think the dragonias would be freaked out too.

“I’ll just go.”

I took off my outerwear and washed James’s head as he closed his eyes.

Shir looked at the acrid smell of gunpowder and the piece of meat stuck in the wall.

It feels realistic.

Because seeing a memory and actually experiencing it are different.

“Are you scared?”

“···A little.”

When the head is crushed, the agent of Venus loses his memory.

It will come back someday, but right now it is lost.

“Former Dantalian’s agent.”

Craxxmara’s call stole our attention.

“Yes.”

“Think about it. Who can fool my best friend?”

“I don’t know.”

“I am the only original owner of your day job.”

It was ridiculous.

Dantalian split my head to kill me?

“Okay. I don’t know.”

I know Dantalian.

He never suppresses human free will.

He was that kind of guy.

‘It must mean that there is someone who can deceive the two.’

Who could it be?

I don’t know who it is, but it’s not an ordinary person.

“···Why do you trust him?”

“Pluto said. This guy is the embodiment of humanity.”

“If he is the embodiment of humanity, then he must also have humanity.”

“Yes. I will keep this in mind.”

I bowed my head and passed Craxxmara.

Disgustingly, I can see the flesh where insects have gathered.

“That’s yours.”

“···I know.”

The dragon’s disgust is felt more strongly by ignorant animals.

Despite this, it still picks up my flesh and eats it.

The timid fox bites my finger and runs away.

‘What if I turn my boyfriend’s flesh into a cake?’

“Because of you, a tiger once shook his ass at me to fuck him.”

Shir looks at me with a frown.

“He was shaking his butt while drooling. Since you won’t do it, bite me!”

“I told you this before. So you fucked me?” “This bitch?!” “Aha! Ouch?!”

He pinched the back of Shir’s neck and shook it.

We climbed the mountain.

How far did it go that way?

Perhaps because Gusteau’s body was in the river, no bugs came looking for it.

However, it appears to have been eaten by an animal that came to drink water.

“···Isn’t it amazing?”

Still, the face was not eaten.

I don’t know why, but animals don’t eat head meat unless they’re really hungry.

As if reluctant.

“I chewed it all cleanly, but only the head was left.”

Jules said it’s because the soul stays in the head, but…

“Isn’t it amazing?”

“I mean, it’s like respecting your prey.”

I think it’s ‘respect’.

I picked up Gusteau’s head.

The pure white spine comes out like a tail.

“The bottom was cleaned so cleanly, and I didn’t even touch my head.”

“What kind of respect is that? It’s just disgusting.”

“What are you saying to the person’s face? It hurts my heart to hear it.”

I washed James’ head and wrapped it in a coat like Gusteau.

Gusteau goes to his younger brother’s side.

James will return to his family.

“···You know what happens to dead people.”

But Shir seemed not to understand.

It’s been like this before.

“I know.”

“But why are you holding a funeral? Anyway, these are the people who tried to kill you.”

“You killed thousands of people because you didn’t do this.”

When we die, we are reincarnated.

Nevertheless, death is the extinction of a person.

“I received training from Jules to avoid the guilt of killing people.”

I passed the training very easily.

Because I knew that humans are reincarnated.

Moreover, all the guys I killed were bad guys.

So inertia arose.

“Because I thought it would be helpful to the world and to you, Jules.”

“······.”

That thought still hasn’t changed.

My actions were clearly helpful to the world.

“But it was an action that was not helpful to my life.”

A person who cannot respect others cannot respect himself.

That’s why both Juul and I fought while getting hurt.

I looked at Shir.

He looked grumpy and sulky.

“This is an action to take back what I threw away.”

There is a saying, ‘I don’t smile because I’m happy, but I’m happy because I smile.’

Positive actions also improve your way of thinking positively.

The world will watch my footsteps, but my children will grow up watching my back.

“And these people weren’t bad people.”

“Yes! I’m sorry!”

“It was I who decided to live like that. You idiot.”

I massaged Shir’s butt.

Shir also doesn’t give up and massages my butt.

We returned to the castle, massaging each other’s butts.

“It’s closed.”

“Of course it’s closed. It’s dawn, right?”

I turned around in front of the closed communication center.

What can I do? Dragonia are also people.

All humans need to sleep.

I had no choice but to return to the room.

“I’m going to go to sleep.”

“Yes. Thanks to you, it was fun.”

After tidying up my stray hair, I headed to Edeline’s room, where the lights were still on.

Just looking at the desk piled with hundreds of blueprints made me dizzy.

“Are you not sleeping?”

“Yes. I don’t need a good night’s sleep.”

“Stop saying such scary things and get some sleep.”

Edeline’s expression did not change despite my beatings.

For some reason, he looked a little angry.

“Where have you been, Sihyeon?”

“The bodies of the dead people have been recovered.”

“···Do you know what their bereaved family will do?”

The reaction was also very negative.

It was Edeline who brought them back to life on the day she died.

Thanks to this, I remembered the image of him leading the way when I cut off my own limbs.

“That’s the right thing to do.”

Byeok-an avoids my gaze.

“···People must be selfish to understand the selfishness of others.”

Get up from your seat.

” Sihyeon achieved most of what she wanted.”

“There is nothing you want or want to achieve.”

“The stronghold that Sihyeon has built up as Dantalian’s agent is solid.”

Before long, Byeok-an looks directly into my eyes.

“So?”

“Therefore, a sense of disconnection occurs when communicating with others.”

“I guess this is a story from experience?”

“Yes. This is an experience.”

The corners of his mouth went up.

Because Edeline’s experience is trustworthy.

“Any desire to do something is ultimately selfish.”

“I know.”

“It means that even anger is selfishness.”

Edeline’s words struck me as very new.

‘Anger is selfishness.’

From a biological perspective, it wasn’t wrong.

“Sihyeon is furious. You have to be careful of your anger.”

That sounds like a bitch.

No one knows more about anger than I do.

“What do you mean?”

“Follow me.”

Edeline started walking past me.

I walked after Edeline.

Her steps were heading towards my guest room.

“It doesn’t make much of a difference if you pour water into a flowing river, but a single drop of water that falls into stagnant water creates a big ripple.”

“The same goes for emotions.”

“The human brain is homeostatic, so it becomes very sensitive to emotions that have not been felt for a long time.”

In other words, this is what Edeline says.

The moment my stronghold breaks, I lose control of myself.

It was advice for myself that I didn’t even know.

“After examining the memory. Sihyeon’s stronghold was very thick, but if it collapsed, there was a high probability of destruction.”

Edeline entered my room and stood in front of Gusteau and James.

“To summarize, Sihyeon is not angry, so it is difficult to understand other people’s anger.”

“That’s why when you get angry, you won’t stop until you destroy the target.”

“Once the anger ends, a variant expression of an emotion as large as anger begins.”

“In most cases, sadness, happiness, and guilt appear.”

It was strange that ‘I’ was explained in words.

Like a theologian before a scientist who refute the existence of God.

“···Don’t you think it’s too stereotypical?”

“Sihyeon is afraid of loss. That’s why I deeply empathize with other people’s feelings of loss.”

“······.”

As Edeline said, I don’t want to lose anyone around me.

She is smart and a genius who has distinguished herself in many fields.

‘Let’s believe it.’

Because I was an atheist to begin with.

I leisurely looked back on old memories.

The root of the sense of loss was Earth’s family.

What I want is family.

The reason I left my family was because I felt guilty about them.

Because it was family that saved Shir.

The reason I stayed with Jules was because they accepted me as family.

The reason Shir was pushed out was for Shir’s family.

The reason I left Sur was for my family.

Starting a family with Lexi also started.

Because it was the family that saved Shir.

‘···Respecting the enemy is also for the sake of the enemy’s family left behind.’

I scanned Gusteau and James’ heads.

I thought I had it all figured out, but it seems I wasn’t.

Suddenly, Heilang’s words came to mind.

‘If you don’t shed tears, you can never forget it.’

At that time, I didn’t understand what was being said.

But I never cried for the family left on Earth.

I’m obsessed with my family because I don’t listen to her.

I remembered Jule proudly showing off her younger sister, Heilang.

‘This is why Heilang was said to be wise.’

“Pfft!”

I thought it was right to just shut up and follow what adults say.

Or because you regret it later.

“I would like to rule out the possibility that Jeon Si-hyeon’s stronghold will collapse.”

Edeline was so refreshingly right.

“Yes. What are you going to do?”

“We will check their memories and, if the bereaved family is in danger, we will conduct their own funeral.”

Edeline had a look in her eyes that said she could not give in.

I also don’t want to reject an offer from someone who cares about me this much.

“Yes. Yes.”

After receiving permission, Edeline checks James’ memories.

Just for a moment.

“This person’s family died during the Black Death outbreak.”

“How old were you?”

“When I was 5 years old.”

It was a time when I couldn’t even remember faces.

“Who told you that Hermann was dead?”

“It is confirmed that he visited the quarry to see Lord Herman, drawn by a rumor, but his memories of that point are blurry.”

“It can’t be helped. What about that person?”

Edeline even placed her hand on Gusteau’s head.

“This person…is a wild dragonia…?”

Edeline’s eyes are strange.

“···Very interesting.”

“······I think so too.”

I was planning to judge based on Edeline’s reaction.

But it’s very interesting.

‘Seeing him do that, it seems like something very unusual.’

Collaboration between Dantalian and Dragon?

Dantalian gets along poorly with other servants.

“I hope you give me some time to investigate this person.”

“How much?”

“10 minutes is enough to remove the tumor.”

Edeline draws the water blade and cuts open Gusteau’s skull.

Soon a bloody tumor popped out of his head.

It’s also incredibly big.

“···What is that?”

“In general, the tumors of wild dragonia are relatively large…”

Edelin took out Dantalian and the dragon’s tumor on the table and then sutured Gusteau’s head.

The head was sutured cleanly without a single wound.

‘That disgusting flesh is a medium for expressing power.’

“···This is strangely large.”

Edeline lifted the two tumors with magic.

“Cut it open and check the contents.”

“That is taboo. I will receive heavenly punishment from my servant.”

Edeline spoke solemnly and scolded me.

Thanks to this, the thought of touching it disappeared.

but.

Cheok─

The tumor suddenly tears open, revealing its contents.

‘I’m going to die alone.’

I was embarrassed.

I was especially embarrassed when I saw the contents.

Edeline is calmly weaving the roots of the tumor around with her magic.

─It was snow.

The eyes inside the tumor roll and look at me.

I looked at it too.

‘That’s strange.’

Definitely not the eyes of a dragon.

Because I’ve seen his real face.

His eyes look at me and smile kindly.

Soon another part splits and a mouth is formed.

[It’s bold of you not to be afraid.]

Edeline doesn’t seem to be able to see those eyes.

It was difficult to understand.

If it’s a tumor from a wild dragonia, there’s no way Edeline, a fellow dragonia, wouldn’t see that eyeball.

[There is no time to explain. Come closer.]

[don’t go.]

Hell speaks in a heavy voice.

I remained silent and observed the situation.

[Blood me.]

[You must never eat it.]

[Otherwise, you will regret it.]

[I’m going to get eaten by that thing!]

I’m not scared because I’ve seen all kinds of strange things.

Just curious.

“Who are you?”

Edeline’s eyes turn to me.

“Yes? What just─” Pujik!

In an instant, the tumor exploded.

“Kyaaagh─?!”

Edeline is startled and falls backwards.

I caught her with the chair.

“Are you okay?”

Edeline looked at the shattered flesh with blank eyes.

“···The power has run wild.”

“Ugh! Isn’t the dragon angry at me for not getting involved with Dantalian?”

I smiled brightly at the embarrassed Edeline.

Edeline also smiles and looks up at me shyly.

“Sorry. ···I think I should sleep like Sihyeon said.”

Edeline soon asked with her eyes as if asking what I had said.

I pointed at Gusteau.

“Where is this person’s family?”

“This man was an orphan.”

“Yes. But they said there was a dead younger brother.”

“No relatives have ever appeared in this man’s memories.”

It was a strange sound.

Considering Gusteau’s passionate speech, he must have cared for his younger brother quite a bit.

“I heard you have it?”

“Yes. I saw that memory too. I also don’t know why this man said that.”

‘What on earth did you just do?’

Three things are certain:

That’s not the dragon’s power.

And the dragon doesn’t like that tumor.

Also, he is close to Dantalian.

And one thing is unclear.

‘Do you want me to be afraid?’

I am not afraid even if I encounter a tiger or seawater in the forest.

This is because to animals, subhumans are unfamiliar prey.

Animals watch the reactions of unfamiliar prey to gauge its strength.

If you react in a fussy manner, you are letting them know that you are the prey.

The animal is more likely to attack Ain in the future.

That’s why Jules was never afraid of predators.

‘Me too.’

However, this is a means that is commonly used between animals and humans.

“···It didn’t help. Sorry.”

A gloomy voice stole my mind completely.

“No. It was helpful enough.”

It may not be an empty remark, but Edeline looked depressed.

I gently hugged Edeline, who was blaming herself, and headed to bed.

Because we both needed to cool our heads.

‘If you think about it, it was a lease for over two years.’

I quietly took my hand into a deep place.

Edeline suddenly became very nervous and trembled.

How delicious the girlish reaction is.

“Don’t be greedy this time. Because then I won’t be able to love you to my heart’s content.”

The contents of the hard crab shell are very soft.

Since he destroyed Edeline’s impregnable stronghold that had not fallen for hundreds of years, it is understandable how great this person’s desire to have me must have been.

If I were to compare it to myself, I would have wanted to have it even if it meant slaughtering innocent civilians.

“···Sorry.”

“If you just bear with me until I get married, I will love you much more often.”

I laid Edeline down leisurely and burned.
