Fake Saint Of The Year

I noticed I was floating in one of the apartments.

Looks like he's here again.

But this will be the last time.

I did everything I had to do over there, and I died.

All you have to do is go to the afterlife that's supposed to be on the other side of the world and dazzle.

"Hello."

In a seated position, the immobile rookie called out.

She seems to be feeling a lot worse than when she saw it before and looks pretty upset.

Maybe it won't be long now.

But it's funny. I barely lived in the last life, but I was supposed to die in the next.

Oh, it's been a while.

I raised my hand slightly and greeted the newcomer.

Then the newcomer will sharpen his face.

"Hey, tone of voice...."

That's fine.I don't think I need to play anything anymore. "

I'm already dead.

I did everything I could to make everyone a happy ending.

Then you don't have to play the Virgin anymore.

Even if you don't have to say such a thing, why do you face further there?

"It feels like we've done it.I don't know anything about it...

When I look at myself objectively, I cry when I'm stupid. "

What is it? Today, I'm going to rush into it. "

I don't know what it is, but the attitude of the rookie is really pungent.For me.

The newcomer (me) opened the computer silently and started "Eternal Flower".

"We were wrong."

What?

"It's faster to see than to explain."

So the rookie shows the screen with his finger.

What happened there - it was completely different from what I expected.

There was Leila holding my loose shell and crying like a child.

Her usual vibrancy, tears and runny nose made her face shabby... modestly, nothing but shock.

I thought Leila would cry a little bit because she was kind, but not at that level.

The idea of getting back to work soon was completely blown away.

I can't imagine the future she will recover from before this sad face and cry.

Everyone else is the same, especially Bernel, who is completely desperate.

Even as the game progresses, Bernel doesn't leave his room and doesn't even eat.

On the contrary, Eterna has stopped her from trying to kill herself many times.

The people - they already know I'm a fake, but the whole country has always been funeral mood, and there's not a single person smiling on the screen.

Everyone has a dying face, as if they were always wrapped up at night.

All the mourners were shown, and the screen blacked out - the end - after the staffroll.

... what is this?

"This is the 'happy end' you created."

The blaming voice of the rookie pierces me.

This is the end I wanted...?

No, it can't be.

This wasn't supposed to happen.

This is not what I thought.

I didn't want this.

"In the end, we thought only of ourselves.

I didn't understand the feelings around me at all.I didn't even try to understand.

No matter what I've been doing for a long time, I feel like I'm playing a game anywhere... and even if I actually went to play a game, it stayed the same.

So this is the last one.

I say idiots can't heal unless they die, but apparently I can't heal if I die. "

The newcomer tells him to be self-oppressive.

It's a blame to me, it's a blame to myself.

As I saw the black screen go on empty, I couldn't stand it anymore and screamed.

"That's what they said... there's nothing you can do now!

It's over!

It's all over!

Oh, shit! Why did this happen!?

I didn't want to see a bad end like this.

I wanted to make it a happy ending for them to laugh at.

What didn't work?Where did I go wrong?

It must have been perfect.

Hunt down all the monsters, do whatever you can with the food problem.

I didn't let anyone die, and I took down a witch.That's the last time I saw a fucking fake saint... which means I quit, too.

There must be only one element that makes you happy.

Well, I thought you'd be a little sad.

After all, I'm a fake, rotten son of a bitch.Why should everyone cry so much when such a thing is dead?

Long live the dead fake who deceived the Virgin, okay?

What the hell is wrong with you?What's wrong with you?

"We didn't know what other people's hearts were like for a long time.

Even though I could understand, I couldn't empathize with him, so I was isolated and became such a human being. "

The newcomer (me) says, "I'm surprised."

Then what? After all, you're telling us that we can't make happy endings without knowing the hearts of others.

"But... strangely, now that I've been dying, I finally feel a little realistic.

Everything I've ever lived was not a lie or a game, but an indisputable reality... that's what I'm starting to think.

What about you?

I'm...

I... don't know.

At least I can't help but think that my gaming brain is still seeing things like other people at this time.

But... it's weird.Now, I feel a little different from seeing a bad end of the game that I just don't like.

I can't help but tighten it... like I'm in a hurry.

When I think of Leila's crying face, I feel like I want to sprinkle something that I can't help but freak out... I don't remember any of this emotion.

"At least you don't think they're just game characters?

"... but I'm already..."

This feeling that I realized for the first time must be something emotional that cares about them.

But it's too late.

There's nothing I can do anymore.Because I'm already dead over there.

But the bad end still seems to be going on, and the game screen that was left in the dark suddenly regained its light.

And what appeared on the screen was a monster I had never seen before.

... what? What the hell is this?

Multiple women are mixing together to create a giant.

And then he starts destroying the city... and he's being hunted down as if Bernale and the others are not going to fight him.

"... apparently, the power of the lost witch...

It seems that this event will begin if we leave it for a while after the end. "

While reading the game message, the rookie (me) told me what this monster was.

Looking at the message, it appears that this giant is a collection of grievances of past witches.

Speaking of which, at the end of Bernel's defeat of the witch, the mysterious laughter echoed, but it must have been his laughter.

I mean... it wasn't over at all.

I thought if anyone but the Virgin defeated the witch, the power would be lost and the chain would stop, but it wasn't.

I lost my destination, but in the end, my powers became physical and ran wild.That was the truth.

The screen focuses on Alfrea and Eterna, but the opponent is like all the witches of the past.

There are only two Virgin Marys to deal with.

Ellise! Help me, Ellise!

Ellise!

Ellise!

The people across the screen are asking for my help.

Stop it... it's impossible.

I'm done, so there's nothing I can do about it.

I can't help it...

--Don 't get upset even if you don't have to.

What a disgusting monster.

What are you teasing me about, Leila and Eterna?

You want to do all the good things without me?Ooh?

"Look... they're calling you, Ellise-san?

"... I see."

Put on the discarded cat again and restore the tone.

Apparently, it's still too early to abandon the act.

Do you know who that giant is?

It doesn't matter if I'm dead over there.

I just can't forgive you, and I don't approve.

You think how much I've burned to get the world back on track.

Guerra Guerra Guerra Guerra laughs.I'm going to blow you up right now, you son of a bitch.

"Hey, Ellise... take my life."

Huh?

"Even with my little life left, you probably have enough time to beat that monster, maybe.

Either way, I'm not crazy to die tomorrow.It doesn't matter. "

The newcomer smiled at the enemy and laid his hand on his chest.

I laugh at it, too.

I'm sorry, but I won't hesitate to do it.Anyway, it's me.

And it seems serious that there are only a few lives left, and even if I don't do anything, they will soon be merged with me after I die.

Then there is only a difference whether it is just a few hours early or late.

I won't hesitate.

"Of course. Actually... I'm already calling people here.

As soon as I'm dead, the body will be found.

I can't let the smell of boulders bother my neighbors. "

Apparently, the rookie knew from the beginning that today was his day.

Maybe something Sixth Sense worked.

We're all set.

That's why I don't need to be more reluctant.

I grabbed the hand of the newcomer and the light overflowed.

Then the newcomer (me) collapses as if the thread had been cut, and at the same time the memory of the newcomer (me) flows in.

There is a feeling that something that has been missing until now will be filled, and even though it is already dead, the word "excellent" makes me feel better enough.

Ellise!

Ellise!

Ellise!

Ellise!

Beyond the screen, a gloomy Ellise call echoes.

Okay, okay, I'm coming to you now.

The remaining lifespan of the immovable rookie will be only a few hours, but that's enough.

I don't need that much to get rid of that monster.Probably.

Concentration switched the landscape, and I was trapped in something crystalline.

This is... oh, Alfrea's seal magic.

Is it anti-corruption?Apparently, my body was preserved without incineration or burial.

Thank you. If there were no bodies left, they'd be out on the boulder.

Looking out, people are pushing them to pray as they reach the crystal.

And the one holding the sword against me... is Bernel.

There's a giant up ahead, and he's waving his arm up, so maybe he was about to smash me with every crystal.

Do you know what the threat is?

But unfortunately, it's too late.

I unleashed my magic all at once, forcibly destroyed the seal from the inside, and blew it out in front of the arm that was swayed down by Bernel.
