Two autumns.

In the meantime, it's been two years.

I wanted to deny that it was ridiculous, but I couldn't.

It doesn't seem like a lie.

I looked at Isaac.

Shabby hair.

A cracked beak.

Isaac's body was very hard.

Proof of time.

It was unbelievable even if it was a sign of 20 years, not 2 years.

I can't see where all the fancy jewelry I was wearing before the breakup was sold.

Two years later, Gizgerai, who needs to be reminded of Lint's call, is already dead.

The invasion of the Empire would have already begun.

Chandler, Lord Grassmeer, is most likely turned into a caterpillar.

Above all.

“What happened to Rubia? ”

I gripped my teeth.

It's been two years since I couldn't be there for you.

No matter what happens to her, it's not weird.

It may feel bad, but the world is never in Rubia's favor.

It reminds me of a handkerchief that was cut off along with something else that I handmade myself.

< Want to know?

Of course.

I definitely wanted to know.

But I didn't want to know anything at the same time. I didn't know how shocked I would be when I heard of her fate.

But it's not a matter of like and dislike.

No matter how hard it was, it was an obligation I had to listen to.

Duty entangled me like a chain. You nod slowly.

Isaac is silent.

I felt afraid for a short time without saying anything.

Isaac opens his mouth when the cry in the distance sounds like an ominous hiss.

< All T&T Nodes in the Capital City have been robbed.

The plan was a complete failure, and Trophin Nannau was already killed.

Even if it's all looted, it's not weird.

< Most were killed.

Wood Duck.

I clenched my fist tightly, leaving only bone.

Again, failure.

<... Rubia was dragged north.

“Taken? So she's still alive? ”

< Yes, if you were going to kill a toy trapped in the Boarwood right away,

I wouldn't have taken him.

“Look. Wood? ”

< Pale top. A Boarwood Institute called the Winter Fortress.

The word laboratory was dark and cold.

I was afraid to hear the truth.

< Rubia is trapped there as a test subject. Once you arouse the witches' curiosity, you'll live for at least a decade.

There will be. "Alive."

Isaac speaks with confidence.

< I don't know if you can call it Rubia you know.

The joints become stiff.

A dark, cold tension dampens between the bone and the bone.

Rubia, the test subject?

Forces and kills countless unwanted fantasies.

Denial. Denial. Denial.

My head is numb because I keep erasing my thoughts.

Isaac's statement continues.

< Thanks to the ‘thing you did’. There was extensive purge. Not only the Marquis of Ebots and the others involved, but all those who were less active in the war have been wiped out.

“Yvot. Marquis.? ”

A completely different name popped up.

< Did you not know? I heard he extracted information from inside the Imperial Court and passed it on to T&T.

It was unthinkable.

I can't believe he was an insider.

When I first met him, I remembered a man who was very sensitive to the name Kevin Ashton.

What's his connection to Ashton?

I was complaining about giving you a fake book, and you were on the same side.

But I liked that.

“Why Rubia? You were dragged away.”

When the Yvot family was completely annihilated for treason, Luvia was also tied up. The others were wiped out, but Rubia was accused of being a Satanist because of some strange testimony.

“Devil worship?”

< I heard he said he was serving the Devil at the Earl Ebola's Tea Party. There is a demon who protects himself.

It's about you, isn't it?

“That's what rubia does. I didn't say that. ”

< Anything stimulating is always inflated. Moreover, the child, Shisel, who testified was the daughter of the Inquisitor.

I remembered what Rubia said at the party.

What you said about not being human is fine. I get nervous if I just can't see it, something.

Talks that seem to be connected to you.

The thought of her becoming a test subject because of what she said about me made her mind fall apart.

“Just for that.

In addition to testifying to several miraculous signs, I drew the attention of the wizards into one body.

The miracles of Rubia.

I'd say it's all either something I snatched up or something I'm related to.

It's just work.

< If they find anything out of the ordinary, they want to try it first. It was proven by interrogation that the children did not lie.

Death is the way out, at least.

But a test subject.

This is too much.

“Save Rubia. Why didn't you save her? If you can get through this, save me, save Rubia. You should have saved me!”

Ridiculous force.

This is a ridiculous accusation.

There's no reason for Isaac to save her.

I thought you'd laugh coldly at the nonsense. But Isaac was surprisingly silent for a moment.

And I began to explain calmly with a bad feeling.

I thought about it.

“Worried. You did? ”

I thought about < whether to save you or to save the child. If I move to save either of them, they'll start to realize I exist.

< Faith will be more difficult. Moreover, there is a limit to the power available. I've used up all the lurium I absorbed while breaking through this barrier. If I had saved him, you'd forget yourself here.

I'd have been locked up for a long time.

Isaac's choice was wrong.

You should have saved Rubia.

I didn't care what happened in there.

You could've killed yourself in there.

I would have started again.

This world-class Rubia would have been saved by Isaac.

But I can't blame Isaac for not knowing it.

The fact that I'm coming back.

Because I didn't tell him I could start all over again because I disobeyed Isaac.

“I have to save it. ”

Save Rubia.

Even if she dies, she needs to change the reality of her subject and start over. I would never leave Rubia, who handed me a handkerchief, in this world.

Isaac said as if he was misbehaving.

Give up.

“I can't do that. I'll do it myself without your help. ”

After.

He shakes his head on both sides.

< I can't. There is a high level of distortion in the vicinity of all ‘towers’. I don't know which wizards I've seen so far, but there are hundreds of them living in Azura. And the owners of the tower will far exceed your imagination.

Isaac would be right.

But it's natural not to give up.

I took one of the pillars I had experienced.

“Compared to swordsmen? ”

< You talk as if you've fought them before? I could never have survived.

Isaac speaks.

Whether it's a fight to protect or to take depends on it. Riders are much tougher when it comes to stealing. The preparedness of the swordsmen and the preparedness of the riders are completely different.

< The preparedness of the swordsmen is about themselves, but the preparedness of the boarders is about space and cause. If you're going to fight in the street like that, I'm sure you'll want to raise your hand. Protector of One

If it's cheap, it's heat, it's heat. Ninety-eight in a hundred wins.

I imagined Leandro von Batienne the most encountered.

Isaac's words sound vague.

“You mean there's a big difference? ”

< Imagine a neutral space. Somewhat like this forest where you are now.

“So?”

< Imagine the gravity, coincidence and friction that only works on one side here. No, imagine everything you can think of. It's not just a trap dimension. Think of it as another world unfolding.

“Why would they do that? ”

Tell me.

“Why are they only staying in the north? ”

Wizards killed by Gizgerai while escorting a fake emperor on patrol.

Wizards killed by Nannau and Stiglitz while participating in the transport of Lurium.

If what Isaac says is true, these guys are unbeatable.

< A well-netted spider doesn't want to get away from it. The more you hit it, the more you get caught up in it. The tighter and more delicate the net, the more so.

“Are they ‘real’ who are not sent to the capital or wandering around the city, but stay in Azura? ”

Isaac nods.

< I explained it roughly. Stop fooling around about attacking the Pale Tower.

“I can't do that. ”

< What? You don't even understand these basic words? A guy like you shouldn't have more than ten or twenty. No, I don't.

We can't attack the towers of Azura even if we're over 30.

“You'll get stronger. ”

< … how?

Isaac looks at me and asks, "What are you doing?"

The tone of the voice that raises the beak and looks at me is subtle.

I feel a faint tingling underneath.

Two years.

Rubia, trapped in the tower of Azura.

This could be his trap.

Trying to provoke me into revealing a secret.

But if it's a trap, I'll take it. It's much more important to save Rubia somehow than not to be exploited by him.

“I see a hole in the heavens. ”

.

Please tell me more.

I stared hard.

There's nothing wrong with it now.

“Killing someone grows on its own. The stronger you kill, the more power you have to distribute like a reward. It rises in the air. ”

Isaac trembles.

You know better than anyone that I'm telling the truth.

“No other effort is needed. Killing grows. Strength can be absorbed from the dead. All are displayed in the air. That's the hole in the sky you're talking about. ”

Isaac is still speechless.

I can't even hit my beak.

I had already realized.

Me and the rest of the world are definitely different.

Unlike Isaac, ghosts, wizards and other knights.

They never grow the same way I do.

You do not see the status window, and this condition is not applied.

This is an overwhelming privilege.

How to use it is gradually becoming intuitive

There is.

Shit.

Have they cleared their minds?

Isaac smashes his beak very slowly. Then, he folded his wings forward and spoke to me.

< Can you do anything to save that girl?

The answer is simple.

“Of course.”

Isaac nods, smiling.

< Then, there is a very good way.
