Start A New Game

Everyday, Raman City

In the rattling wagon, Saehan looked at Ian who was forgetting tangerines.

Tangerine, which I bought because I thought I might need something to eat while riding a wagon. Ian is passionate about picking tangerines with his tiny hands.

But his skill was quite poor, so Tangerine was stabbing Ian in the fingernails everywhere. It seems to be shouting for some reason.

“... Do you want me to? ”

After looking at it for a while, Ian looked up slightly and looked at Forgiveness.

“Forget it. I can do it. ”

Of course you can, it's just a little sad that the poor tangerines are getting poked in the fingernails and spurting out juice.

“... Never mind. ”

Finally, he smiles brightly, softening his face.

Then take half of the wounded tangerine and hand it over to Sahan.

“Here you go. Do you want some?”

It's a fact to hand it over, then ask the doctor. To be honest, it was a silly way of saying it, but it was so cute that she received tangerines without saying anything.

Unlike Ian, who had his mouth cut off piece by piece, he shoved half of the tangerine into his mouth without any processing process. Pink juice soaks your mouth.

“…… what the hell. ”

Ian looked at the scene with his eyes wide open. This is the first time I've ever felt so uneasy. "

“… why? ”

“... you can't eat that expensive stuff all at once! ”

Ian squeals.

Definitely expensive tangerines. I only needed one gold to buy 10. 60,000 won per person. However, it does not have any impact on the paralyzed economy.

“... This tangerine is supposed to be eaten like me. It's more delicious. ”

In his words, Ian narrows his eyes with a disgruntled look. However, unlike a blunt face, I rip four pieces of tangerine into my mouth as she said.

Her little mouth, puffed up like a hamster that kept Sunflower in her mouth, gives a filthy hiss.

“... Oh, my goodness. ”

He strokes her head. Ian swallowed all the tangerines and sat next to her.

Her face, which was just cheerful, soon turned into a worrying face.

“…… would that be okay? ”

The name given is omitted again, but you can predict what is omitted enough.

“Of course. He's strong. Might be better than I expected. ”

“…… but”

Ian lets out a trembling sigh.

“Mana's passageway burns almost entirely internally... If she can't use magic again...”

“It's going to be okay. I'm sure she'll be fine. ”

I stroked Ian for worrying about my sister. I even felt great for some reason.

“But what if... what do I do? …… ”

Ian, who had been preaching his worries to her for a long time, fell asleep for a moment, and she laid her head on his thigh.

The wagon races down the trail with a groan. Occasionally, you hear the sound of Bashrack hurting wildlife in the forest.

* * * * *

Thanks to the "fast-paced" spell on the horse and horse, the original journey that was supposed to take about half a day arrived in less than four hours.

It was already dark and pretty cold getting out of the wagon. However, unlike the dark earth, the sky was literally a star. The area was also a coastal plateau to the north of the continent, so turning to the right, the faded coastline was endlessly stretched out like a mist. The saffron waves reflected the starlight, shining white as a fragment of the moon.

In this way, there are stars in the sky and the sea, and there is beauty in the breeze of the soft sea.

He was able to understand why this place was the right place.

“... the view is great. ”

“Right? That's where she lives. That red house. ”

Ian points his finger at the white-looking brick house.

With Ian and his luggage, Sadhan nods his head and walks to a kind of mansion built of red bricks. A mansion the size of a mansion was built by a designer named Blaze.

“Is that made by your family? ”

“Yes. He spent millions on building just like me. I heard the land is very expensive because of the huge concentration of Mana. My mother, who was about to have a baby, took care of her here, and she and I stayed here for about two years right after we were born. I don't remember much since I was too young. ”

Ian's expression brightens as he approaches Blaze's red mansion. Maybe it's a sister's love that I realized later. Seeing her like that, I felt a smile on her lips for no reason.

At the door of the mansion were two guards guarding the entrance. They were all women, but they looked as bold and strong as men.

They were alert for a moment to the two characters they saw, but soon after seeing Ian's vivid hair color, they lowered their heads in reverence.

“Greetings!”

Full scream. Ian nods and opens his mouth.

“Is she in there? This is my party. ”

“Yes. You're probably reading in the library right now. ”

“Yes, thank you! ”

Ian grabbed her hand and stepped into the small garden of the mansion.

* * * * *

The interior of the mansion was, in other words, "as well." Although the exterior looked small, there was also ‘expansion magic’, and the inside of the enchanted expansion was as wide as any mansion.

“Wow, that's big. ”

Ian was surprised to wonder if he was right to stay when he was really young. Sakhan smiled and moved to a library that felt the popularity of Armada.

“.. where are you going? Do you know where the library is? ”

“I think I know why. Follow me.”

* * * * *

It was on the second floor, and the library was also on the second floor.

Sahan and Ian opened the door of the library and slowly entered.

I couldn't take a few steps, so I could see the familiar side. Sitting on the couch, Armada reads in a book with round glasses.

She didn't react as if she was completely immersed in reading and hadn't noticed even though the two of them had come in.

In her appearance, the thoughts of both Saehan and Ian were consistent. He glances at each other, smiling and slithering like a cat.

I reached the foothills of Armada, shouting for help.

The count counts, then tightly grasps her shoulders as she screams like an animal.

“Grrrgh!”

“Hghhhhhh!”

Armada, completely stunned, rises from his seat with an unidentified scream, then settles down again. Like a frog.

“… What the…”

She shivers and shakes, identifying the identities who surprised her.

“... here I am. It's been a long time."

“... I'm here too. ”

Ian smiles slightly awkwardly.

“... You really... You can't do this to a patient...”

Armada calms the beating heart, saying as if it were a gesture. But unlike what she said, there was a happy smile in her mouth.

* * * * *

“Are you feeling better? ”

“Yes. Slowly... But more importantly...”

Armada sighs.

“Phew... I don't have much to do. Funny thing is, you don't have to wash your eyes and look for it. Even if I try to write a paper, I won't be able to manage it...”

“I gave you a card to play Halligali with the maids when you were bored. Why didn't you? ”

Ian asked with a puzzled look.

“That's... that's... me...”

In the embarrassing appearance of Armada, Sahan smiles deeply. Her internal injuries would have significantly reduced her cognitive and other abilities. Maybe most of the time, except for glamour, is below average.

So even if you play games with your servants and maids, you won't be able to beat them with Holly Gali battling with cognition and agility.

She hates to lose, so she won't even think about losing a few times.

“By the way, what are you doing here? Just reading?”

Zahan quickly returns the topic, and Armada winks at him in gratitude.

“Well, almost every day I read a book. Then suddenly I get frustrated or depressed, I go for a walk... It's just a boring repetition. ”

Armada raises his head with a smile.

“… you didn't eat? Let's go eat. ”

* * * * *

After a little late dinner, the three of them gathered together to talk. Perhaps it was because of the two characteristics of 'strange atmosphere’, Ian had a quiet conversation with Armada.

Laughing, angry, joking. Like really good sisters.

Armada seemed genuinely happy, and so was Ian.

“…… Thank you, Sahan. And... I'm sorry. ”

And now Ian's tired of my pool and he's asleep. At dawn, Armada stared at Saehan and said,

“... what? Rather, I'm thankful and sorry. In a way, that's what happened because of me. ”

“What are you talking about? I survived because of you before it happened. ”

She twitches her hand on her knee, tense as if it were a stretch.

“… By the way, how long are you going to stay? ”

Sahan's jaw is tied and his mind is wrapped. Leaving tomorrow immediately, I am no longer reluctant to see Ian and Armada happy.

“Maybe... the next day? I think I'll be leaving soon. My vacation ends in three days. ”

“Oh, really?... and have fun until then. There are oceans around here. It's a little cold.”

She smiles happily, expecting to leave tomorrow.

*

The length of my stay was just one day, but I spent the day with three people. We hunted wildlife, had a lot of conversations, and strolled along the beach together.

In addition, Sahan made various activities for Armada. Lots of rides that stimulate her 'battle shame’, including pool and ping-pong.

The mansion is full of escorts and attendants to take on her, so she won't be bored for a while.

And the day I had to leave so quickly.

In front of the wagon that is about to leave in the morning forest where the clear sunshine is blazing and the plants are singing with the birds, three people are waiting for their farewells.

“... Goodbye. ”

Armada steals the tears from his eyes and gently hugs Ian. Ian didn't say anything. You just take a sniff and get in the wagon like you're running away.

“ … ”

Only Sahan and Armada were left, and Armada approached him and gave him a light hug, as he had done to Ian.

“.. thank you. ”

The two overlapping bodies are torn apart for a moment, and Armada does not hide the tears in her eyes.

“… and… ”

Tears flow, but he smiles hard to succeed.

“I already know the answer. I know I'm selfish... but I need to tell you something. If you don't, there will be too many regrets and stubbornness... Do you understand? ”

She glances at Saehan's eyes. I squeezed my hands tightly, whether I needed the courage to do it.

Armada's beautiful mouth moves cautiously. The voice that made the sentence along with the movement carefully tickled his ears.

And then, she said it right before she said anything.

“Goodbye, then. Please be happy. ”

He smiles, saying that. The smile was a very happy smile. I feel relieved that I brought out the horse that was suffering from a grunt.

So she nods silently and turns her back on her.

*

Ian bursts into tears as he enters the wagon. I wonder what Armada said to himself, worrying that he might have heard it in the wagon.

“Huuuhhh..."

Hearing the sound of her crying made her eyes flush for no reason.

The wagon departed, but Ian's cry did not stop, and he held her still like that. Ian soothed himself with tears in his arms, and he suddenly remembered what Armada said.

Be happy.

Happiness. It's too far and too far away for me to choose between the Earth and the world.

She also thought about what she wanted to ask her, but thought about what she had endured.

‘Are you happy now? ’
