Dark Fantasy Paladin Chapter 23
Episode 23.
“······Wait a moment. “I will give it to you.”
Arhan placed his hand on the half-demon Sertia’s face.
I couldn’t reach one. Because he was a heroic spirit, physical contact with anything in this world was impossible.
The point was that the ordeal itself was all real.
This is because Arhaan’s power was not the power to create virtual reality, but the ability to cut out and seal the space and time of reality.
He used the one-time power that risked his life for his lover. Just before he died, time here was frozen and space was separated.
Therefore, the time of the half-demon Sertia did not pass at all for 200 years.
Arhan’s hand passed through Sertia without even touching it once.
She looked at Arhaan with a pitiful expression.
“······In the end, you died.”
“You lived.”
“no. “Without you, I wouldn’t be alive even if I were alive.”
Iden knew what would happen next. I didn’t want to see it, so I turned my head.
I could hear the sound of a blade digging into soft skin.
“Se Sertia!”
With Arhaan’s screaming cry, a crack cracked in the sky. The space itself completely collapsed, and when I opened my eyes again, I had been transported to Arhan’s palace.
Certia’s new form shimmered faintly on the red carpet.
Many of the demons that Iden had slaughtered were trapped in the dungeon and howled in unison.
That was the power of the ruins. Unless the owner, Arhan, disappears, souls who die within the power belong to the historical site for eternity.
“I will share all my fate with you.”
Sertia, who knew the truth, committed suicide.
If we were both spiritual bodies, we could mix, rub, and touch. Iden roughly understood her psychology and moved on. Because I didn’t want to think more deeply.
How disappointed he was when he saw Sertia stabbing his own neck in the original.
I felt like the shock I felt at that time was slowly creeping up on me.
“I am going to give you a human life…”
Aiden approached Arhan, who looked very confused and dazed.
“Be honest and rejoice and get away with indulgence.”
Arhaan frowned and glared at Aiden. But I couldn’t bear to get angry. Because Aiden was his benefactor.
The one who brought me the moment I had longed for. No matter how arrogant a hero Arhaan was, he still had a certain amount of conscience.
I just laughed.
“Rejoice. “You have never loved.”
The word love pierced the memories that Aiden had buried. It was a moment full of regrets, as it was exactly one year ago.
Self-loathing and a desire for revenge hardened Iden’s expression slightly.
Arhaan smiled subtly, took out a piece of parchment from his pocket, and handed it to Aiden.
“I’ve had feelings for you. But it has already degenerated into hatred and is eating away at your heart.”
“Maybe so.”
I didn’t necessarily deny it. I was handed the parchment and looked at Daryl and Sein.
Sein was holding back his tears and curled up with his arms wrapped around his body.
She didn’t want to show her scales and couldn’t shed tears. Because I saw Daryl and Iden’s struggles clearly with my own eyes, the act of expressing my own tragedy felt like a sin.
I was whimpering and holding back my tears.
Aiden was unskilled in how to comfort and care for others.
However, the essential problem could be solved. The rest is either your responsibility or Daryl’s role.
“I can wash the black blood flowing from your body. So don’t be sad.”
Iden offered an indulgence. Only then was Sein able to understand Kadak’s words.
‘No matter what happens, follow the guy chosen by Elohimderk. We also visited the ruins together. Do you understand?’
The teacher already knew that he was a half-demon. However, they collected it. My brother was carrying it alone, and the paladin, who hated the devil more than anyone else, showed grace beyond mercy.
“Sistine and Priest Bandel too…”
Aiden nodded slowly. Sein could no longer hide the tears flowing.
Who embraces mixed race people like this? It’s a dirty and ugly being, so no one would want to get close to it.
A creature with less dignity than livestock. That was a half-demon.
My emotions fluctuated to the point that my heart ached. Are you truly worthy of receiving such undeserved grace? How should I repay the love and grace I received from them in the future?
It was a valley so deep that even if you sacrificed your life, you could not fill it.
As a person in the world, I couldn’t think of any way to repay him. All he did was bow his head and repeat his apologies and thanks.
Iden thought about what to say, but couldn’t come up with anything. I just made eye level and patted my back.
“I can thank you.”
Daryl also came over and knelt down.
“Don’t do this to yourself too. inconvenient.”
“It’s not a beast that even Eunwon can’t tell. Even these knees are not enough. Please allow me to repay it gradually.”
Aiden’s expression became a little confused. This is because altruism alone did not save them.
Iden wanted to quickly end the uncomfortable situation. He unfolded the parchment and began to read the text.
“Bacheksar said, ‘The sins of the ancestors are passed down to the next generation… Tsk. done.”
Iden closed the parchment without even finishing a single sentence.
“Just understand. “Somehow, your sins are forgiven, so you are qualified.”
Daryl chuckled.
This is because the Aiden he saw was quite different from the world’s evaluation.
A noble hero devoted to God.
I felt a little bit out of place. I have never seen Aiden praying.
Unless there was a situation where other people’s attention was focused, the word ‘God’ itself was never mentioned.
Paladins always have “God” at the end of their words, but that wasn’t the case with Iden.
There were times when he uttered words that amounted to blasphemy. like now.
Iden handed the dagger and parchment to Daryl.
“Put a blood seal at the bottom.”
Daryl cut his index finger with a dagger. He stamped the parchment and handed it over to Sein.
“Just do it like Daryl.”
Sein accepted it with trembling hands. Daryl stroked his younger brother’s hair.
“Isn’t shedding a lot of blood really scary? haha.”
Sein shook his head slowly.
“Then come on.”
She closed her eyes tightly and cut the tip of her flesh.
The parchment with the blood seal was handed back to Aiden.
“The procedure ends here.”
At the same time, the parchment gave off a bright light. Deformed characters crawled out and wrapped themselves around the siblings’ bodies.
A bright glow burned their black blood. The pain traveling through their veins and throughout their bodies distorted their expressions.
However, the pain was okay. The freedom and liberation I had longed for. They were now able to confidently introduce themselves as humans.
Eventually, when the light faded, even Daryl’s eyes became red.
“God officially pardoned me and I observed. As a witness, I will prove their innocence to the church. You are human. Congratulations.”
The long-awaited reality has arrived. Daryl lowered his head as if trying to hide his expression.
Behind him, half-demon Sertia smiled and clapped her hands.
“I sincerely congratulate you.”
Aiden took a step closer to the sobbing siblings.
“Stop getting up.”
There was no reply, only the sound of Daryl catching his breath. Only after a moment of silence did he raise his head. He had a very serious expression.
“Well, I haven’t learned anything, so I don’t know much about God’s will. “But I’m sure you know who will repay this favor.”
Daryl clenched his hands tightly, as if he was determined. Then he got down on one knee and looked up at Aiden.
“Hey Daryl. I consecrate life and death to you.”
He held up a dagger with both hands.
“Please accept it.”
Paladins have the authority to award knights honors. Of course, this was only when the target had reasonable qualifications.
Iden thought for a moment and then took Daryl’s dagger.
“I’m just leaving it in charge. It’s impossible for a commoner to have that level of skill to have a title. Even if I admit it, the church will reject it.”
Daryl grinned and stood up.
“From my perspective, it is reasonable that I am lacking. But do you know what? Even though it looks like this, I am now eighteen. I’ve heard many times that I’m a genius. Anyway, stay tuned. “You will admit it.”
“Okay, try hard.”
Aiden nodded and looked at Sein.
The scales that had been eating away at her skin had disappeared before she knew it.
“Don’t think you owe the world money. I paid you back. You live for yourself.”
Sein wiped away tears and hesitantly opened his mouth.
“······The teacher said I would become an archmage. I’m definitely not bragging. And Sistine said that I would definitely grow up to be a beauty. sorry. “It’s just like that…”
“Okay, after listening to it, I see that there is nothing wrong with what I said. It just means live the way you want. You will be respected wherever you go. If you want, I can write a letter of recommendation for Imperial Magwan University. You can go and hone your talents.”
With the talent of a worldly person and a letter of recommendation from a paladin, admission was no problem. Even if you are a commoner.
Sein looked at me and shook his head.
“Master, I won’t learn anything there…”
If Archmage Kadak said that, it meant that Sein’s talent was beyond Aiden’s imagination.
Of course, Iden was completely ignorant of magic, so he couldn’t judge the truth.
I just nodded.
“Okay, if you need anything, I’ll help you, so let me know if you think of anything.”
After saying that, I approached Arhaan.
“Bring the rest of the Noble Phantasms.”
“Hmph, if anyone sees it, they’ll think I entrusted it to you.”
“It’s not that wrong.”
“under! “He is so bold that it leaves you speechless.”
Arhaan looked somewhat reluctant, but there was nothing he could do. Because Aiden passed the ordeal.
He clicked his tongue and snapped his fingers.
A huge spear and a jewelry box fell from the air.
“Holy spear Gargantua. It is a spear made from the ribs of the king of beasts. It is a double-folding type with a total length of 4.5m, and it is an anti-military weapon that can be extended infinitely according to the sacred power you consecrate. This body is a whopping 38m…”
Of course, Garagantua was a non-standard Noble Phantasm, but Jin-guk was in that jewel box. It was contained.
Aiden ignored Arhan’s words and slowly opened the jewelry box.
A smooth egg was piled on red silk.
Aiden swallowed nervously.
“It resonates with those who have passed the ordeal and the seal is released. “I expect it will hatch right away.”
It was a fact that Iden knew well.
The reason why users repeated the rerolling process was because of that egg.
A unicorn that purifies demonic energy.
Or
Pegasus, the heavenly horse flying in the sky.
One of the two was born, but what Iden wanted was decided. Of course, I had to accept whatever came.
took my hand
The egg gave off a brilliant light.
It was the first time Daryl had seen Iden’s expression like that.
