Hunter of the Perished World

[337] Greenhouse Flowers, Wild Weeds (4)

The same was true of the Sorceress's confusion. Why did Leona come back here when she had to get far away from the wire by now?

“You…. Why are you here... ”

The Sorceress had no idea why Leona had returned. The Sorceress is bewildered, but Charlotte is appalled.

Leona appears to have awakened the witch's power, and given the situation just now. Normally, Charlotte could barely move her body, but now she can't even deal with Leona.

Leona, who was in the worst situation, is now holding both Charlotte and the Sorceress at risk.

Like Charlotte, Leona smiled awkwardly, looking at the Sorran, the Sorceress of the Everywhere.

Leona was here with all her heart.

“I know it doesn't even sound like it's going to work at this time. ”

From now on, Leona had to say something unspeakable.

“I don't have time for this. We all have to run. ”

The war brought about a completely different existence, and Leona explained that it would consume the entire army. To avoid the disaster, I had to stop fighting and find my own way, and I didn't have time to fight like this.

The Sorceress knew the last thing she read was true, and Charlotte gripped onto it.

I didn't believe in God.

But this war has turned her mind upside down many times.

There was a storm on the bare ground, and the dead stood up and drank up to the Red River, which became the undead, and an army of monsters appeared from the river.

So, the idea that God would descend upon the world and bring down the apocalypse was plausible enough for Charlotte, who had fallen from her senses.

Charlotte also seemed to know the source of the strange certainty she felt. God wanted her to kill the Sorceress, so he gave her the location like a revelation.

“Then kill the demon who summoned the thunderbolt and the gods will return to where they came from. Step aside, Leona.”

Rather, we have to kill even more Sorceresses. If so, God's wrath may also be put to rest.

“Too many people have died to quit everything now. You have no idea how many people's lives have been harassed by that demon, do you? ”

“Just because too many people have died doesn't mean everyone has to die to avenge that death. ”

With Leona's calm persuasion, Charlotte nods slowly.

“You're probably right. ”

“Then…. ”

“But!”

Charlotte's machine eyes flash and glow.

A soulless cyborg has lived as a human and had human memories.

“It's too late to wear a rational veil now! Even if God does not withdraw, I have a duty to kill that demon to ease our anger and hatred! ”

Therefore, even if she has no soul, she is human. This war that continues with hatred alone must not end unless it resolves that hatred. That's why Charlotte had no intention of stepping down.

The Sorceress was listening without a word.

Charlotte was not the death she was given. Now that Leona's here, she won't die. However, the corpse that lost its power will not survive for long, but will end up on its own.

The Sorceress laughed at the two of them.

We were discussing saving and killing each other's lives that had already been ended. No matter what they choose, the fate of death cannot be missed.

Charlotte stares at Leona and says,

“Out of my way.”

Charlotte's body has almost exhausted its strength. However, if you raise the remaining energy in the reactor to its limit, you may be able to fire a single shot at the flare.

However, if you do so, you will not have the strength to return to the transport ship. Leona and her corpse are added to the location where Asura's corpse should be left.

Even so, I had to kill the Sorceress. We have to kill as many gods as we can, let alone complicated stories.

“Last warning, Leona, step aside. I don't want to kill a child like you and put an end to this war. There's only one devil left to die for. ”

The blue energy forms on Charlotte's fingertips. It's just a flare shot, not an arcflare, but there's no stopping it at the level of Leona's mind-bending power.

If you don't move again, I'll shoot you.

But Leona smiles at Charlotte's final warning.

“Well said. ”

Charlotte disappears from sight the next moment. Charlotte couldn't keep up with Leona's movements due to the fallout.

When she wakes up, Leona is already holding Charlotte's rear and swinging her javelin towards her bridge. Then she realized.

Leona in front of me is not just a kid I met in the past.

A child.

“That's what I hate the most. ”

Scream!

In a series of psychoblades, her legs were cut off from below her knees.

Bang!

Her body, which had lost her leg in an instant, collapses to the ground.

“Khh... Ugh! ”

A rotten witch is a witch.

And Charlotte didn't know about Leona's life as a hunter. That's why I thought Leona was just standing here feeling slack, and as a result, I was careless.

If Charlotte really wanted to kill Leona, the result would have been the same.

Leona blew up the rest of Charlotte's left arm with a psycho blade.

Screaming!

“Ugh! Leh, Leona! ”

Maybe he's the kid who can do this. Charlotte, who had her limbs completely cut off in a state of incapacitation, sharpens her teeth.

It was Leona who could be cruel and cruel as long as she held the power.

“I don't care if you misunderstand me, but don't look so disappointed, because I'm part of this war. ”

Leona controls the battlefield, playing the Black Dragon. Leona crouches and looks down at the fallen Charlotte.

“If you think I'm asking you now, you're mistaken. ”

Leona is the absolute strength in this situation. In fact, no matter how much power you have, it is only natural that if you encounter an enemy without prevailing, you will end up with nothing but defeat.

Please end this war.

I'm not here to ask you to do that. Leona knew that begging wouldn't work in this situation.

“I'm going to end this war. I'm not going to win. I'm going to end it. ”

Leona knows Humans. I know what human society is like.

I know what the people up there think, and I know what the people down there think.

Depending on the period, war can also be understood.

“It's no different than the local kids' quarrel. You need a reason to fight, and you need a reason to stop fighting. ”

Leona's expression of the great and cruel war was too easy to compare with the local children's feud. Leona pulls Charlotte's severed limbs together and starts tying them to a rope.

“But you know what? The only people who need a reason are you and those scumbags. ”

Neighborhood feuds, the heads of each faction, order you to stop them when they give you a proper defeat or when you have a proper victory.

The bosses need a reason for beginning and end. Just like the two groups are now. Charlotte thought the war would end only if she defeated Azura.

Leona tied up Charlotte's arms and legs and said,

“None of the stooges want to fight. They don't need a reason. I don't want to be branded as a traitor because I just told them to, so if they run, they'll get shot and they'll kill them. Those guys. ”

Leona grunts at the weight of a small figure with her brow strapped across her shoulders.

“'The fight is over.’ One word is enough. What do they like more, the death of Asura or the end of the war? ”

What is so important about winning or losing this war to soldiers?

For them, life is one life, and life is one life.

There is no reason to sacrifice it, kill your enemies, and advance.

Soldiers, of course, rejoice at the fact that they have secured enemy notice, or have secured enemy territory, or that their leader is dead.

Why cheer.

That's because we know that all those words are coming. All they want is the end of the fight, not victory, not defeat.

If they are happy with Asura's death, it will be because it symbolizes the victory of the war. Of course, everyone in the Command hates Azura, but I certainly don't want Azura's death to cost me my life.

I don't have to die now, I can only give them true joy.

It doesn't matter why the war is over. Only that the fight is over and that no one else has to die is for the soldiers who occupy the majority of the war.

“So, I'll deal with Marshal Wargrave's head. ”

Is this the end of the war or the fight? Leona came here for that in the first place, and she arrived here in the optimum condition that neither of them died.

This war is nothing to do with Leona. However, if the appearance of identity is a problem on the losing side, Leona was willing to do what she could.

If it were Gene, he would probably want to fight something that frightens him. Leona knows she can't fight beside him. Then, at the very least, I had to stop the war and ignore the other side.

That's why Leona is here now.

Charlotte grips her teeth.

Everyone wants Azura dead, so she, the enemy, came here to fight her own battles. Everyone hoped for it and thought he was the only one who could end the war by executing it.

However,

Not everyone wants Azura dead.

She wanted Azura dead herself. I wanted it even more with my heart than I combined everyone's wishes.

Wargrave enemies themselves needed a reason for Asura's death to end the war.

However, I sympathized with those who were just drawn out, but in the end I had no intention of empathizing with them at all.

For them, it was just one word that mattered that the fight was over.

Bottom doesn't know up, top doesn't know down.

Only Leona, the bystander, knows how their aspirations are twisted.

He was afraid of the impersonation of being defeated as an enemy. Seeing the dying soldiers resurrected, I felt sorry for them, but I was more angry with Azura than with their compassion.

What was the war for?

A war to condemn the traitors.

A war to kill those who commit evil deeds.

Beyond anger and hatred and struggle, eventually.

The only thing left was the pride of not wanting to lose.

Asura went into this war to give order to the world and tried to be king. And Charlotte was still hesitant to say that it was evil.

What about you on the scale?

A beast that uses cursed commandments to raise the dead.

And the self who pushed the dead back into the field knowing they were coming back to life.

In the end, he also used the representation of the hatred of Azura, and completely overlooked that he might also be subjected to that hatred and anger.

Is that enough?

The war is over.

Will the war be over just by saying that?

But nothing changed when Charlotte thought of anything. She was no more than a hostage at the hands of Leona.

“Is there somewhere you can communicate? ”

I don't know if I can communicate with the enemy faction, but it was important that we quickly communicate the situation and stop mutual hostilities.

The Sorceress said with difficulty.

“If you go out here to the north, there should be a communication station. I don't know if it's working yet.... ”

“Got it.”

“The liquor of the Angcheon film will soon be over. You'd better do it fast, Leona... ”

‘And my life. ’

But the Sorceress didn't say that much. It's just a clan, and I didn't want Leona to worry about her.

If he dies, the ransom is impossible. So I had to hope that Leona would end this war.

“The supernatural rate will be here soon. ”

So, as if to wait, Leona disappears from the sanity to the pierced ceiling, lifting up Charlotte's limbs and her body. The Sorceress has no idea how that boy managed the comms to draw the conclusion that the war was over with the enemy.

Now, I was not sure if it was meaningful or not, anticipated that heavenly bodies would have come from the beginning.

And then...

When you hear someone running from afar, the Sorceress gives you an unconscious grip that seems to be going away.

One last thing.

The last thing I never dreamed of will come.

There was no thrill in Leona saving her life.

However, at this moment, the Sorceress had no choice but to thank the little witch child a hundred times.

Thank you.

“Sister!"

The poor priest is rushing towards him with a desperate cry.

I never felt bad about being blind.

It's a way to feel the world. It's been around forever.

But now there was no way to feel the world, only complete darkness for her.

“Sister! Are you okay! ”

He's, uh...

Are you smiling because you're alive? Or are they expecting to be this miserable and crying?

The guy running now must be making a funny face, whether he's crying or laughing.

You should have seen the look on his face and asked him how ugly he is.

I can't do that.

The Sorceress was afraid of it.
