Dungeon Reset

And now.

Shortly after arriving at the witch's house, Alpha suddenly summons you straight down.

< This…… is really amazing. >

“What's so amazing? ”

< I also remembered a memory that I had forgotten. >

“You too? What do you remember? ”

Following Bahamut's memory, Jungdown showed interest in Alpha all the way here.

However, Alpha said something amazing.

< Long ago, I died here. >

“Suddenly? You never said that before. ”

It was ridiculous.

The Witch's house has been a shameful place to make phantom stones.

And now all of a sudden you're saying that?

< In the beginning, my memory is incomplete. A long time ago, me and all the dragon apostles of life learned how to seal some of their memories themselves. >

“You sealed the memory? Why?”

< We have discarded unnecessary memories in order not to be captivated by other people's memories, and to devote our whole allegiance to Erthea. >

Bahamut welcomed the Alpha's words.

[What a resourceful place! For a different reason, the former owners who used to serve me always wanted to erase their old memories.]

< Absolutely. Witches were doppelgangers like me, so I needed to protect my personality. >

“Witches were Doppelgänger of Erthea? ”

Surprise and awe.

Alpha gave him a summary of the truth about the witches.

“Witches were the Dragon of Life doppelgangers? Why are you telling me this important story now? ”

< It was also one of the sealed memories. And when the witches died, they decided that those old memories were just unpleasant memories that had nothing to do with Erstea's resurrection. >

“Then why are you telling me this all of a sudden? ”

That…… is because this moment is still coming up with new memories. >

Alpha was amazed at himself while constantly talking back.

The memories that I had forgotten were flowing out as if I had gained life on my own.

< And the rabbit told me that I must remember this. >

Those memories came alive as if they were happening right in front of me.

[Alpha! Even if you die, you must remember this!]

“Hehe. That's what you mean to a dying person.... ”

Past.

Alpha is dying with blood spattered by witches.

The witches who are after Erthea have been gunned down.

The Alpha, who fought to protect Erthea at the forefront, was rapidly revived by the Witch Butcher's Blade.

“Hooray! I got you! Life expectancy! Queek!? ”

“Why don't we share the good stuff? ”

Puck!

“Why…… me……! ”

The witch who absorbed Alpha's life energy and loved it was soon killed by another witch.

Starting with that, other witches who were attacking Erthea started attacking each other with the longevity of Alpha.

Even comrades with the same meaning, greed rose as they put the enormous lifespan of the Alpha in front of them.

After a short breather, Erthea comes to the dying alpha.

“Alpha!”

He had already left a copy of the Book of Life and reached out for a white ash alpha.

“Ertessi, please forgive me if I go first.... ”

Paszec.

“No! Don't die without my permission! ”

Flash!

Erthea breathed a powerful life force into Alpha just before the Alpha's breath was completely cut off.

Then the body disappeared, and only the book of life (a copy) of the alpha swirled to the golden light and infiltrated Ertera.

And the energy began to engrave golden letters, entangled in the air.

Erthea? >

Oh?

The rabbit glitters at the familiar look of the Alpha.

< What's this? >

Alpha was embarrassed to realize that he had come back to life.

Erthea was greatly pleased to see the golden alpha script.

“Good! I could have died a little later! ”

< No, you can just die. >

“No! I haven't allowed you to die yet! You don't want to die because you're a doppelganger! ”

< I appreciate the words, but living like this... >

Alpha was not very pleased.

When the body died and disappeared, only the book of life (a copy) remained, and the body was resurrected.

Even the Book of Life (a copy) was rapidly losing its record and power, so the memories of the past were also punctured.

The rabbit greets Alpha with a greeting.

[Wow! Now I feel like I know Alpha! Congratulations on coming back to life!]

< Do not tease. I didn't technically come back to life. Alphara is a completely different self that's been rebuilt by shredding the remnants of existence. >

[Stop complicating things and remember what I said!]

< …… The Shadow Consolidation? >

Fortunately, I was able to remember what was happening.

The rabbit showed Alpha the grimoire of the Shadow Consolidation taken from the Witch in Glasses.

[Yes, I took a quick look at this magic, and it was paired with Shadow Art. I'm a doll, so I can't learn magic, so Alpha must remember this magic and teach it to the human later!]

< To whom? >

I don't know, do I? Eh-heh.]

< ……. >

The rabbit was always like this.

I was always hoping for something, and I didn't know exactly what it was.

[By the way, this Shadow Magic is the pinnacle of the opposite attribute, HerThea. It can never be used. Maybe when I was human. So he has to learn to write himself.]

Humans, who were in chaos, were born with a talent of so many different things, they were the only ones who could freely use the magic of all attributes.

Then suddenly the rabbit slapped his forehead and turned his head.

[Oh, right. Why didn't I think of this? Bahamut! can't you use this magic because he's the Wizard of Darkness?]

Bahamut, still bound and overwhelmed, suddenly turns his head in horror as the rabbit pushes his Shadow Consolidation Grimoire towards him.

[Hehe! Get rid of it! How dare I see your magic!]

[Aigoo, it doesn't wear off just because you see it. Bozem, Bozem. Just look and say it.]

[Khh. I'm angry! You've seen it! Skeletons without eyelids can't close their eyes!]

The contents of the grimoire unfolded before the skull of Bahamut at a glance.

The rabbit smiled and asked.

[What do you think?]

[Th, I think I can use it. Why do you ask?]

[Then it's a waste. Now.]

[No! How dare I use your magic...!]

The rabbit whispers like a demon to Bahamut's rattling ear, imagining it to be blasphemous.

[Or you will all die. Look at that. Can't you see Erstea's running wild?]

[……!]

Kwaquaang!

The rabbit was not exaggerated.

Erthea, who almost lost her first apostle, was furious enough to drive the witches away.

At first, I had pity on the Doppelgängers who were born to me, but I couldn't compromise until I learned that they served the dragon of the Apocalypse.

“Farewell. Ghosts of my past. ”

“That's so cool! Why do we have to disappear? ”

“Since you gave us birth at your own will, you can die for us! ”

Boom, boom!

The battle was fierce.

If it had been this big in the first place, it wouldn't have taken this long.

Ertera could have trampled the witches with a huge body.

But here, we have to deal with the witches thoroughly with magic.

Ertera shreds the magic of the flying witches from all around and decimates the number of witches diligently.

The golden alpha's letter shakes violently next to you.

[Fight with your life energy intact! The more magic you use, the more vital energy you lose!]

The life energy that I used to cherish and cherish was consumed like crazy in one day.

And apart from that, Bunny and Bahamut were plotting against each other.

[Now, see? If we delay any longer, all of your masters will be dead. If he's a loyal servant, shouldn't he be able to help in this situation?]

[Hehe. Are you sure using this magic will help your masters? I don't even know what this magic does. You're not lying to me, are you?]

[Hey, think about it. It's the witches' magic in the first place. is written by himself. What are you worried about? It's always in the best interest of the witches when you use magic.]

Bahamut eventually became tempted by the fact that everything was true.

[Hm. Apparently so. And whose side are you on? You came here with the Dragon of Life and you tried to betray me like this.]

As Bahamut wonders, the rabbit smiles and raises his thumb.

[Of course it's on our side to win.]

[…… got it. Don't.]

Bahamut finally began to read the words of the Shadow Consolidation Grimoire as the rabbit had said.

It's tightly tied, but the boundary magic was enough.

[Shadow Seal Brand!]

In the end, magic was practiced on Bahamut.

Then, the smile of the rabbit that was looking at him became even darker.

[... Never mind.]

Flash!

At that moment, black and white shadows spread out from around Bahamut and swallowed the entire lab.

Erthea and the witches, who were fighting fiercely in it, looked back at Bahamut in surprise.

“Hey, what's this!? ”

“Shadow Consolidation? ”

“This must still be experimental magic. ”

No one here knew it yet, but the rabbit had only seen this Shadow Seal once.

The future.

On the tomb of Emperor Bamum.

Harun's ruins, the magic pattern that was imprinted on the surface of the ‘human' that had been called into the past, were a new moment to be engraved in the witch's house.

[Alpha! Bahamut! You remember this moment so well!]

The rabbit shouted.

Towards someone in the future who doesn't even remember their name.

[I'm right here!]

And that moment.

Flash!

Suddenly, the servant of the shadow rises up without a sound on the floor of the lab where the shadow is cast.

“What is that……. ”

Static.

Suddenly, there was silent tension in the lab, which was a fierce battlefield.

Time did not stop.

However, as if time had stopped, they could not say anything because of the strange sensation that suddenly felt.

Shaah.

The black and white paint gradually fades from the servant's body, returning its color.

With everyone's eyes, ‘he’ looked at the rabbit with a grumpy look.

“Why are you bothering me? ”

[Keep that mouth down and say it.]

Hee hee.

The rabbit smiled widely, facing him.

He laughed, too.

“It's been a long time? Did you miss me? ”

It was the world's honey jam without you.]

Ah, the future has summoned 'ChungDown'.

“Oh, and... ”

Knuckles.

“Did you bring him with you this time, just in case? ”

In his hand was a book with a golden chain around it.

Why me? T_t]
