Count Scribe's Tutor

Chapter 69. Incomplete Story (2)

I knew right away that I was strong.

For over a hundred years, she has raised numerous Five Star paladins. And he's never lost to anyone before. As long as it lasts, there is neither old nor dead.

So now the poor one who no one remembers his name.

But a teacher who is more respectable than anyone else.

Eloden watched where the nameless Cardinal stayed. Bondi, it's a battlefield. Only half a day ago, it was a hell full of debris and crystals.

But what about now?

Fragments that were making strange noises disappeared everywhere. And the color of the earth is as black as night. The reason was simple: the fragments and crystals had all been reduced to ashes.

It's only half a day.

About halfway through the paladin's day of training. Time for high priests to pray in a day. And the time it took the nameless Cardinal to wipe out thousands of enemies by himself.

“Huh-huh-huh-huh-huh! ”

A smile burst out as I recalled the half day's memories.

I tried to endure it, but I couldn't bear it. Eloden continues to laugh like a madman. A long time later, there was a self-absorbed smile on his face.

“I knew that if I tried, I would stand by you someday. ”

Eloden has been called the greatest swordsmanship genius since Sererheim was founded.

That's why I thought I would be able to swing my sword with my teacher someday. However, as I got older, my confidence gradually disappeared.

And today, he realized.

“· · · · · · · · It was all my fault. ”

His teacher, Cardinal Anonymous, is an absurd man.

No, I didn't say strong enough. They will believe even if they are transcendents or agents of God. He is different from a mere genius like himself.

A moment later, Eloden turns his head to the west.

The Cardinal who defeated all his enemies disappeared directly towards the western border. It's because I feel unclean beyond the border. I was told it was Earl Morco of the Kingdom of Laderon.

Eloden's lips glanced at it quietly.

“No matter how strong the unclean character is. ”

I won't be able to be your opponent.

Eloden believed that and did not doubt it.

* * *

around the time the accident was stopped in a shocking way.

Sermer is slowly unleashing his luck.

[As you know, this world is an unfinished story.]

Of course it is.

If the story was complete, there would be no reason for the authors of each round to be called.

[Precisely an unfinished myth.]

“What? Myth? ”

Suddenly, my eyes widened with the big story that popped out.

Meanwhile, Sermer nods quietly.

Do you know who you are?]

Of course I do.

The only disciple, the Cardinal without the name of the Holy Nation and practical practice.

Throughout every round, there were only two of them.

[Mythical prowess. The so-called stature is very rare. From the beginning to the present, if I can remember for tens of thousands of years, I can only remember three.]

This is the first I've heard of it.

I can't believe the reality was that rare. He did not think that the three spirits were unworthy kings of the unclean world.

[Haven't you noticed anything strange here?]

“What's weird? ”

[There are two such rare beings at the same time. Have you ever questioned that?]

Honestly, no. Leaving the question, I didn't even think about it seriously.

It's just that the set-points are more than that.

[Of course not. You have fallen from the outside. For you, this world is nothing but a world in stories.]

Is that why?

Ser Merdo, the craftsman who asked the question, agreed. Soon after, he spoke with a solemnly changed face.

[But this is also a world. An ordinary world where countless lives and deaths are repeated. Just like the world you once lived in.]

Ferda nods at the following story.

He also admitted in practice that this is not just a story, but a world. Suddenly I thought about it, I remembered a familiar message in front of my eyes.

[System Error Alert]

Fatal damage detected.

Initiate system emergency recovery.

Current recovery rate: 1%

System recovery message right away.

I saw similar messages at the end of the Eastern Desert the other day. And with the news that the system was fully restored, all records, including Sermer's message, were erased.

[The manager seems to have noticed, so I'll get right to the point.]

Ser Merdo notices this and speaks rather quickly.

He tapped the floor with his feet.

[This world is doomed. It's a story that has already come to an end. And if it doesn't reach an end, the world repeats itself constantly. As you have seen from the outside.]

I think I want to talk about the repetition.

As Ferda understands, she nods and continues.

["The End" here means to complete a myth.]

“What does it mean to complete a myth? ”

[In other words, it is the birth of a divine being.]

I get it. Myths are Bondi's thing.

You nod quietly and then throw the question out of your mouth again.

“Does that mean the birth of a god is the end of this story? ”

[Yes, and in order for a divine being to be born, each of them must become one with a different personality.]

“If it's the opposite nature, · · · · · · · · · ·. ”

[Denial of good faith. And it means sacred stature.]

It means that it is the Cardinal without name and practice.

So what happens when you two become one? Suddenly, when I got caught up in the question, something caught his eye.

Current recovery rate: 17%

The recovery rate rises faster than expected.

If the system restore is complete, it will be the same as before. Perceived, Ferda immediately cleared her mind.

“What happens when you reach the end of the story? ”

[The story that has been accumulated has remained a myth, and a new story begins.]

Then Sermer said:

The existing world will perish and remain as a record, and a new world will be opened by a new god. Meanwhile, Ferda narrows her eyes as if she had noticed something.

“But I don't know if I'm mistaken. ”

The black eyes glare at Sermer.

After a while, a sharp question followed.

“Somehow I don't think you want that to happen. ”

[Correct.]

I knew you had a firm voice.

Soon after Ferda asked why, the answer to her decision came back.

[This story must not end. Even if the end is fixed.]

“Why?”

[The moment a story turns into a myth, time freezes forever. And every life that lives now turns into a simple record.]

Turning into a record didn't mean death.

It is said to disappear forever, leaving only traces of its existence. If this is true, then it is a serious problem. Once the story reaches its end, so will Ferda and Silva.

[I am the number of the world. Mother of all life. I couldn't just watch my loving children disappear. So I intervened in the world. As the author of stories, as you have.]

Now I understand gradually.

At the same time, one question arose.

"Then why was the round aborted? ’

Not just because it failed. If so, Ferda and the rest of the authors should have been erased.

Current recovery rate: 31%

Meanwhile, when Ferda was in such doubt,

Sermer continues his story.

[The last dragon was the same as me. So I willingly interrupted the story. But the manager also repeated the world over and over to tie up the story. And so the world repeats itself hundreds of times.]

“· · · · · · · Hundreds of times? ”

It was an explanation that I had to get out of my mind.

Then how many times have they been erased? Why was the round deleted again? All sorts of questions swirled like a whirlpool.

[Many attempts have been made. I've been through all kinds of trial and error. The manager constantly erased our memories, but that alone could not stop us.]

Sermer's face is bound together.

Suddenly, his eyes glowed like stars.

[I barely got the answer right after hundreds of repetitions. The only way to stop the world from repeating itself and get managers to take their hands off this story.]

“How does that work? ”

Ferda asked as if she were curious.

Then Sermer said without hesitation.

[Two personalities can disappear at once.]

“ · · · · · ·! ”

[As I said before, we have made numerous attempts. And there's only one attempt I haven't made.]

Current recovery rate: 43%

[Erasing the possibility of the story reaching its end. Then the manager guessed that he would give up storytelling as well. Based on your experience, this guess is close to the right answer.]

I was sure of Sermer's voice.

Soon after, he looked at Ferda and said,

[However, this can only be done by you.]

Current recovery rate: 50%

By the time the recovery rate had reached halfway.

The shocking words followed from Sermer's mouth.

[So use your hands to destroy both of their holders.]

At the same time, Ferda's face was hardened beyond compare.

Of course. Now all he's asking is that you kill the cardinal himself.

[I understand your feelings. I confronted the unthinkable truth, so I'm confused. So did the last dragon.]

Sermer nods.

Then he said with a firm expression.

[But now there is no time. Once the manager starts meddling, I'll lose all memory and just go back to the catastrophe that threatens the world. We have to make a decision before that.]

But the answer never came back.

He just kept his head down and stiffened like a statue. Meanwhile, Sermer, who was waiting for an answer, spits out information that he did not ask.

[It was the manager who called you here.]

The question that I've always wondered about has been solved.

But Ferda doesn't raise her head. The one who was staring at it quietly put up a battle.

[If you do me a favor, I will use all the power I have left to return you to the world you once were. I swear on my name.]

“ · · · · · ·. ”

The answer still hasn't come back, but a mild reaction has occurred.

The evidence was that his shoulders slightly trembled. Aware of this, Sermer extends his arms wide.

[The stage is already prepared. All that's left is your decision.]

A light smile appeared on Ser Mer's mouth.

It was a sure smile. As if Ferda had any choice, any expectation. After a brief silence, Ser Mer's lips tighten and a solemn voice comes out.

[Please save the world. You are the true Savior.]
