Hunter of the Perished World

[148] Failure is not worthless (1)

Under dusk.

Gene smiled at Leona with a face he had never seen before.

“Really?"

“Yes."

In the past, Jean and Sullivan climbed to the top of this mysterious and marvelous building.

‘It's a waste of energy.'

‘But don't you like seeing it like this? ’

At that time, Gene did not understand Sulin, who was eager to climb to the top, but he couldn't just watch Sulin slip, so he climbed up to the top of the vine at a time when there were no hidden stairs. Sulin stares around at the top of the building dazed. The climb that started at noon ended only after nightfall.

Gene looks at the landscape unfolding around him and mutters as if it is not a bulk.

‘I like to look at the landscape. From this distance, there doesn't seem to be any problem. And it's beautiful. Isn't that enough? ’

‘There's no hobby of looking at the landscape. ’

‘Why? It's so pretty. ’

Sulin looks at the red waters and says so. Sulin seems to persuade Jean to answer his blunt answer.

‘This area has beautiful scenery like this every day, but you can't see it unless you come up here. We found this landscape. ’

‘I hate the landscape. ’

"Why?"

‘Because it hasn't changed. ’

Isn't it good that things aren't changing? ’

There is no one in the world who can understand Gene.

‘When you see things that haven't changed, you think about things that have changed. ’

‘… I guess so. ’

The landscape remains unchanged. The sun is always setting westward, the sky is always green, and the forest is always open like this.

Just as the sea and land are constant, the landscape is almost forever. Gene thinks about things that change every time he looks at them emotionally, every time he sees their immortality and immortality.

Paradoxically, eternal things make us self-aware. That's why Sulin smiles lonelily, seeing that he doesn't have a hobby of admiring the landscape. Her followers will be looking up at their prophets in a confused gaze on this giant tower.

I call it Ragnarligion. ’

Is it from Ragnarok? Somehow it doesn't mean much. ’

In Nordic mythology, it could be used as a means of collapse.

"I'm going to try."

The scorching dusk that rises as if it were the screams of the sun refusing to sink. Sulin was pointing to the sun.

Tomorrow the dusk will set, and tomorrow the sun will burn red, refusing to fall.

‘After all, the dusk is over, but that's a bad name. ’

Sulin laughed at Jean's negative reaction.

"You see things that haven't changed, and you think about them. ’

‘Yes.'

‘Then dusk implies the dawn to come tomorrow. ’

The sun loses.

But I think back to losing. In fact, after Ragnarök of Myth, another world came along.

Sulin knew he was going to fall one day. We also know that the one who inherits his will will will becomes another dawn to light up the world.

It definitely changes.

However, that will go down unchanged. Seeing the everlasting dawn and dusk, Sulin created a false religion, the Dusk Bridge.

Gene then reaches the Twilight Bridge and faces the same twilight.

We face the red light that does not change a inch, and the fall of that sun and the waters that are bitten with the same color.

Gene lives like this, but Sulin died a long time ago.

She suffered a tragic death due to the side effects of overuse of the venpowders.

Facing the eternal raises the awareness of mortality. Gene sees things that haven't changed and thinks about them. Jin smiles bitterly and gazes at Leona's back, gazing at the dusk.

Thinking about things that will eventually change.

And in all that separation, thinking about the hand that I held, knowing that I would eventually part with it.

Leona turns to look around at the camp in the dusk. Leona smiles.

“You wanted to show me this? ”

There is no hobby of seeing the landscape.

Rather than not having such a hobby, I dislike it.

However, if the child in front of me can enjoy a little bit, I can take as much as I want.

“Yes."

Gene laughs.

Knowing that he would eventually part ways, the Demon Hunter decided to live now. Leona smiles brightly, looking at the dim surroundings.

“Let's go, Ramfil will be worried. ”

Leona opens her arms in front of Gin, saying so. Gene knows what it does. Leona motionlessly opens her arms in front of Jean, as if to come quickly.

Gene tucks his hand into Leona's armpit and gives a flash hug.

Leona asked me to hold her hand. Then, of course, she grabs Jean by the neck and smiles.

“Lose some weight. ”

“Why don't you just roll it up and say that? ”

That's what Jean said because Leona was so light, and she insisted that she think about her murderous behavior and say it.

It's so light. It was a weight you could lift at any time, any amount of weight you put on Gene.

Leona is so light.

However,

Gene felt like he was lifting up the world.

The next day,

Leona leaves the easy-to-notice flares in her quarters. Leona wins a heartfelt vote, but she doesn't insist. You have to greet each other and then leave.

“My legs are shaking.... ”

I came down to the first floor and sighed. Meals were supposed to be handled on each floor, and each floor had its own warehouse with food. If there was a restaurant, the members of the Twilight Tower would have arthritis as they worked their way up and down.

Seeing Leona like that, Ramfil smiled bitterly.

“Without elevators, skyscrapers are inefficient. ”

The Twilight Tower was certainly a nice and sacred building, but it was not a comfortable area. A dangerous building beyond uncomfortable is said to have a few people stumbling every year climbing a risky staircase.

However, the magnificence of the Twilight Tower from the outside was great enough to make it a home after enduring such inconvenience.

Gene had already spoken with the acting Chancellor about what was needed, and some of the Guardians were bringing something over.

Leona looks at it and opens her mouth.

“What, what is this? ”

Two horsesy wolves with stirrups are being drawn to the Guardian. He was a threatening beast, but in reality, he did not show any hostility.

“A fully tamed wolf. If you stay away too long, your connection may be compromised, so you should come back before the day is out. It's not that hard to ride. Turn the head of the wolf in the direction you want to turn it to face it. In the jungle, all you have to do is steer clear. ”

Gene asked you to capture the wolves because they can move quickly using the wolves used by the Guardian Scouts of Twilight City.

The Guardian hands Gopi over to Jinn as if to help her board. Jinn climbs onto the wolf by running once without help.

“You're coming with me. ”

“I want to ride alone! ”

“Dangerous.”

Leona was able to climb on her feet with the help of the Guardian, as if she were about to climb up with a sudden release of her mouth. Leona, sitting in the front seat of the camp, strokes and touches the wolf's mane as if it were strange.

Meow, meow, meow.

“Haha, I think you like her. ”

The guardian laughs as if it's fun to see the wolf shaking his head as if it were a charm. Those who are not officials do not know that Leona's level of connection is not unusual. Leona smiles brightly as she sees the wolf roaring like it would kill her to touch it.

And then...

Broken grain!

“What, what! ”

Leona looks over at the other side of the sudden grotesque creature, and there is a squatting wolf.

Ramfil was on his back.

“... I didn't think of your weight. ”

“He's weak. ”

Suddenly, an enormous load hits the wolf, and the wolf sits still. Ramfil looks troubled as he rises from his spine.

“I can't help it. Leona, you get on that one. ”

“Really?"

Leona is pleased to hear that, but the Guardian gives you an oval.

“I, I.... It will be hard for a child to ride. ”

“It's all right, don't worry. ”

If Leona is in danger, the wolf will die for her, so Leona can ride. I would do everything in my power to keep the noble witch on my back safe. Leona howls as if to mourn the burning wolf. The squatting wolf sticks out his tongue and howls as if to say when.

They're not wolves, they're dogs.

Ramfil looks at Gin with a puzzled look.

“Blame your weight. ”

“What? What should I do...? ”

“If you're not feeling well, your hands and feet have to suffer. ”

Gene pointed ahead.

“You just run. ”

“ ……. ”

?!

As Gene hit the beetle, the wolf starts to move, and Leona follows the beetle as if she understood that by grooming the wolf's hair without having to challenge the beetle.

“Something's wrong with this. ”

Then Ramfil sighs as he runs along.

The wolf moved according to Leona's will, but it had to be handled better than Jean's. Ramfil follows you diligently. The three who left the city ran east of Twilight City.

In the east of Twilight City, there was a large garden, where Venflower was grown.

The wolf was very fast.

“That was fast! ”

Leona howls over the running wolf, holding it tight. Twilight City was still built around it, and Leona shouted in the cool breeze above the wolves running down the road.

However, Leona tilts her head without a chance to enjoy the frenzy.

“What, are you already here? “

”This is the most important place in the Twilight Bridge. Of course it's not far. “

It was only a short run away, but I was already at the sunset brazier.

The lush garden that was secured by clearing a vast forest was the Garden of Sunset, and he knew that once it was full of dazzling white flowers. Gene steps down from the wolf, and Ramfil follows shortly. Ramfil, who follows the wolf's gallop, is also demonstrating the benefits of the cyborg disease.

Of course, it was a shit face apart from him.

”What a wasteland.“

Even though I had a deadly poison, once a beautiful flower blossomed in the sunset garden, I was only growing weeds now.

”Somehow creepy. “

The vast abandoned flower garden seemed to be just empty, so Leona felt frightened. From now on, it was Gene's turn.

You have to figure out why the Venflower doesn't grow. Gene steps down from the wolf to the flower garden, and Leona follows behind him on the wolf.

Ramfil and Leona have no idea how Jean is going to solve this situation. A monster can only be beaten to death, and I don't know how to solve the case, but the flowers won't grow.

”Can you feel what's happening? “

In Ramfil's question, Gene pauses for a moment to clear his mind, then opens his mouth.

”If nothing grows on this land, it's soil. But if you look at the weeds growing like this, the soil is fine. “

Benflower did not grow even after the plantation was changed. Gin's eyes could already recognize the withered, brown stalk of Venflower in the weeds.

The sunset plantation was enormous, as much vendor powder was needed, and Gene walked to the top of the garden and looked around. The vast plantation was already occupied by weeds and managed by other plantations, but Venflower was clearly unable to cultivate.

”Benflower belongs to the Hangul grass. Raise a year, and that's it. We have to plant the seeds again and wait for them to grow. “

”Does that mean you have to plant the seeds every time? “

”That's right."

Gene finds the Venflower trunks, picks out the least rotten stalks and examines them closely.

”Seems like it hasn't sprouted since the last generation. These have been withered for a year. “

”What do you know, then? “

”You have to know the specifics of the problem before you can solve it. Benflower doesn't wither, it doesn't germinate. “

Gene suddenly swells the dirt from the ground and chews a lump in his mouth. Leona was frightened to see it.

”Oh, what are you doing! “

Regardless, Gene wept with a lump of dirt in his mouth. The Dark Bone system, visible only to Gene, lists the results of the interpretation in front of his eyes.

Numerous information including organic and inorganic content, soil conditions has been analyzed. Information analysis did not take long.

”?! “

Gin spits out the dirt and rinses in the mouth with a cistern.

Looking at what happened to Jean's head with suspicion, she frowned and said.

”We made sure the soil was contaminated. “

”Oh, can you do that with food? “

Gene smiles in relief.

”It's gonna be hard to find what I can't. “

Ramfil and Leona were stunned by the shock, and Jean did the work.

”There are no signs of special contamination. Sometimes the cultivation takes too long to damage your intellect.... It's been confirmed that weeds grow well, and it's practically a good soil for plants to grow in. “

Gene ate it to make sure that there was no problem in the soil.

”What soils grow well? “

Leona asked me a question, and I said, "Of course."

”Fertilized soils, I guess. “

”Fertilizer? Fertilizer.... “

The only fertilizer I could think of to grow my crops was Leona's head. compost, and what it's made of.

Leona asked because she had a strong feeling of anxiety.

”Well, aren't you eating your own shit? “

”I spit it out. I didn't eat it. “

”No! You chewed it in your mouth! “

”I had to. “

In fact, it was well and tasty (it looked like that in both eyes). Ramfil laughs because it's ridiculous.

”As expected, you should have known when you asked me to put bat poop on you. “

Ramfil smiles like a madman with an empty smile, not a moderately insane one. Leona bites back at the wolf with a dull look on her face as if her insides were drooping.

”Please stay away from me for a while.... “

”Those are some nasty things. “

Jean sighed deeply as if to chew it in her mouth.
