Hunter of the Perished World

[147] City of Dusk (5)

Leona climbs down the stairs like the wind, unlike when she had a hard time going up. I didn't notice the sights of Twilight City. Quickly, I wanted to go somewhere.

I wanted to be alone.

Thump, thump!

“Stop!”

But Ramfil follows you behind. Leona exclaims.

“Poetry, no! Don't come!”

“Danger! Danger! ”

Ramfil rushes to Leona screaming for help, and she tries to jump quickly and stumbles off her feet.

Slippery!

As he rolls down the stairs, Ramfil snatches his hand.

“Oh!”

“You said it was dangerous! ”

Ramfil shouts, losing his composure.

Eventually, he ran away and was in danger again, and Ramfil saved him.

It is always protected, cared for, in crisis, and saved. I couldn't take it because I was stupid and stupid and hated myself. It's like this.

So, you don't have to. Even if we leave them here, we have no excuse. Even if you cry out to take me, it's no different than saying that you will continue to do more damage and help in the end.

So I can't tell you not to leave me.

I'm angry, but I can't say I'm angry.

Realizing that, Leona couldn't help but burst out crying.

“Huff, huff! Huhuhuhuhuhuhuhuhuhu!”

Ramfil sees tears pouring out of Leona's eyes and forgets what he said.

“Why, why are you crying? ”

“Ugh... ”

Ramfil froze like a stone as Leona drooled like a madman and couldn't find anything to do.

“I'm sorry. I'm sorry... I'm sorry... Ugh! I'm sorry... ”

“What are you thinking? Tell me, or I won't know. “

“Ugh!”

On the wooden staircase in the air with the blade breeze, Leona feels drowsy and Ramfil clutches onto her like that.

“It's annoying.... ”

Ramfil said that in front of the crying Leona. When Leona heard that, she tried to swallow the tears while biting her lips. It means he is a crying child. It's more annoying.

Leona desperately tried to push herself to cry because she didn't want to be that person.

“I'm sorry... Ooh, I shouldn't cry... Sorry... I'm sorry... ”

Leona says that she misunderstands him, and he shakes his head.

“I'm not saying you're annoying. ”

I didn't know what to do. So Ramfil grabs Leona by the grip.

“Come here.”

Ramfil grabs Leona and pulls her into my arms. Ramfil doesn't even know why he's doing this, and Leona cries as if he's holding Ramfil in his arms. Ramfil did so without even knowing how to hug someone properly.

“When I'm with you, I keep realizing there's too much I don't know. ”

Ramfil can crush, crush and kill his enemies. Such things are well versed. The soldier Ramfil is innocent, and no one worries about Ramfil. Monsters and humans.

That's why the soldier Ramfil knew nothing.

But not anymore.

Ramfil doesn't know what Leona's up to.

I don't know how to soothe my tears.

And I don't even know why I can't stand seeing Leona cry.

“I'm not saying you're annoying. ”

I don't even know why I'm making excuses.

But it's annoying to get to know all the unknowns bit by bit.

I think I know why Leona's doing this, I think I know how to soothe the crying baby, and I think I know why she's making excuses.

It's strange to feel yourself changing.

It's annoying.

Soon they came to Leona, and they were guided to a place to stay, first with the guardians sent by Oracle. I put my hand in Gin's hair and broke her eyes.

The house on the 20th floor was covered by dense vines, but at the same time it was not dark because of the sunlight coming in through the gap of the tree. The three came into one room and put down their backpacks.

“Tell the Guardian of this stairwell if you need anything, and he will be ready for you. ”

“Thank you.”

After the bus station returned, Gene looks at Leona.

“I specifically told Oracle not to make any strange misunderstandings. ”

Leona lowers her head as if she had sinned.

“I think it's over a long time ago. ”

Gene looks at Leona and says boldly.

“Now I'm not planning on leaving you anywhere. ”

Bold but decisive.

“Never.”

Leona raises her head and her eyes are already bloodshot. Ramfil looks at it and smiles at what he thinks.

“Are you gonna cry again? ”

Leona opens her axe eyes and yells at Ramfil.

“I'm not crying! ”

“I think I'm gonna cry right now. ”

“Don't tease me! ”

Boom!

“Aah! My foot! ”

Leona kicks Ramfil because she can't beat him, but instead, she slumps down because she's sick. Gene laughs at his appearance.

It's better this way.

This is what it looks like for Leona. Rather than being depressed by self-doubt and guilt, even though it is noisy and noisy, it looks much more natural.

“I'll get out of here as soon as I've solved the Venflower case. ”

Gene firmly said so. Leona's getting noticed, and the Twilight Brigade was expecting it. The savior appeared before my eyes, but it's natural to be excited.

But Gene came here to finish the quest, not save the Twilight Bridge. Ramfil, however, added that he was not at ease.

“What could they possibly want with Leona? ”

“I wouldn't do that if Oracle was in his right mind. Don't worry about that part. ”

It was very unlikely they would use force to force Leona if they knew about the apostle of twilight. Above all, if Leona doesn't cooperate, she can't become the Savior.

Leona was glad to check Jean and Ramfil's mind. I was happy enough to know that they didn't intend to leave themselves behind.

But, apart from him, a thought was rising deep in my heart. However, I have not yet known what it is.

“This one seems pretty unique. ”

According to Ramfil, Leonard nods. I'm not hunting something, I'm reviving a dying flower garden this time.

Leona was quite amused by the fact that the hunter who killed something was responsible for saving something.

“Do you know what to do? ”

Leona's questions shrug her shoulders.

“We don't know anything yet, so we'll see if we can fix it." ”

I was going to rest today and start tomorrow, so today I was going to rest in this dusk tower.

Oracle was smart, even though he was young.

As soon as I saw that Jin's attitude was harsh, I held a convention instead. And the apostle of twilight came to us and ordered us not to pay attention to the power of the girl who was with him.

Their level of sympathy was limited to the Grand Chamberlain, so it was unlikely that Leona would get unnecessary attention if they held out.

Instead, they had a heated debate about Leona's strength. The meeting was roughened by the need to get Leona's help in any way, and by the fact that the apostle of twilight should not be carelessly touched.

But in the end, Oracle had the right to decide, and even though he was young, he was a man who kept his authority clear.

“The apostle of twilight has helped the Church a lot during the history of the Church. His presence at this time must be the blessing of dusk. But at the same time, the apostle of twilight is something to be afraid of. If we don't respect him, we don't get his respect. ”

In Oracle's logical words, the successors who attended the meeting were forced to keep their mouths shut.

Even though he needed Leona's help, the Savior himself, he knew that the dusk apostle who had been passed on for a long time should fear him as much as he did.

Therefore, Oracle was clever enough not to take undue action.

It was a great favor to the Church just to solve the Venflower case, and I was glad to know that such a child existed.

There is already one, but there can't be two. I did not know when it would come, but I did not doubt that a new Savior would appear one day, even if it wasn't for his own price.

Of course, there is already one other being in the world besides Leona.

And you didn't realize that it was far from salvation.

But Oracle gained hope. Sometimes people are comforted just by knowing that there is hope. Leona's existence, unfortunately, was reassuring enough for the Duchess of the Twilight Brigade.

What they believe, what they seek, is certainly in the world. Just knowing that felt like the leader of the Twilight Brigade was saved enough.

“So, let's settle for this. ”

Oracle concludes the meeting and the successors have no choice but to agree to the decision.

The dusk tower's residence, of course, had no windows, and there was a storm. The large building was solid over time.

Of course, Leona had never entered the building, although it was not as high as the Asgard Tower of Odin Corporation. I was looking down at the view of Twilight City.

“I can't wait to see my legs... ”

I've seen this when I climbed the rock, but at that time it was the wilderness and now the city is spread below. It was quite unusual for Leona to see these little people going and going.

Since everything started tomorrow, Ramfil was lying on an old couch like he was going to rest as much as he could.

Gene is still thinking. I thought I cared about Leona, but I didn't know that it could put her in the wrong place.

Recalling the word affection was always difficult for Gin. But I also knew that the expression of affection didn't just end with making good food and good bedding for Leona.

“Follow me.”

“Huh?"

“I'll show you something better. ”

As the evening light was approaching, Gene led Leona out of the inn. The Guardians had already been delivered, so they did not interfere with the nobles' march one by one. Gene gives Leona a big hug.

“Come on, come on! ”

Leona was embarrassed when she did something she didn't want to do, but she stepped on the outside stairs silently. As Gene made his way up the stairs without saying a word, he hugged Gin's neck as the stunning sight of Leona, who was initially stumbling.

If it was slight, I would experience a huge free fall.

Gene climbs up the stairs. Twenty-one floors, twenty-two floors, and twenty-five floors with Oracle, Leona tilted her head. The stairs were also slaughtered.

“There are still stairs. ”

“We may need more space in the future. From the beginning, the stairs have been dug all the way to the top. ”

As more facilities were added one by one, the Twilight Brigade increased its use space. In fact, the area used by the early Twilight Bridges was up to five floors. Apart from the awkwardness, Leona stares blankly at the open space around her.

The Gene climbed to the top of the 55th floor of the building and descended from a huge vine.

The top of the Twilight Tower, that is, the roof of the building. Gene dropped Leona off. Upon climbing a treacherous staircase, Leona was already familiar with the unique horrors she felt at the height.

Then, all Leona could see was the thrill of the vast landscape unfolding before her eyes.

“I don't care... ”

Leona was overwhelmed enough to pick up words like that.

On the twentieth floor, there was only a view of Twilight City.

“It's very small.... ”

But when I got to the top floor, Twilight City, which looked so wide, was rather small. It was so small that people couldn't even see it properly.

It was full of vast forests that appeared beyond the surrounding buildings. The endless expanse of the surrounding green forest was endless like the sea.

“Trees are like the sea.... That's a lot.”

“Have you ever seen the sea? ”

“Yes, but only once... ”

When he was traveling alone on the Korean Peninsula, Leona also touched the sea once. And the thrill that I felt at that time is now in a completely different place, without a river.

Leona is unfamiliar with the fact that she has penetrated deep into the forest. Leona mutters dazed.

“A sea of trees. Mister.”

“I see.”

Gin and Leona stayed on the roof for a long time.

Soon after nightfall, the sky was already red.

It's dusk time. Leona is looking at the blue waters as if they were drawn to the red bites of the sunset. Things on earth run in color according to the light of the sun. The red sea and the scorching sun move to the edge of the forest.

He's also new and gives Leona another thrill. And looking at it, he mutters dazed as if he had realized something.

“You can't be... The Twilight Cult... ”

Gene laughs at Leona, who noticed.

“Yes, the name of the Twilight Bridge was created here. Watching this sunset. ”

Leona opens her eyes and looks at Gin, wondering if the hit surprised her.
