The Traveling Hero Won’t Let the Innkeeper’s Son Escape

Black smoke rose between Ruth and the “star” at the same time as that voice. The smoke gained momentum to hide Ruth's appearance, closing his surroundings to darkness.

"Intruder?

I can hear the "star" upset coming through. Apparently an unexpected lay.

Come here.

"Eh."

Ruth starts running with his arm drawn to his thin hand in the dark. After a while of running, the smoke cleared up gradually so that I could clearly see the presence pulling my arms.

"Nah...... Mr. Natasha!?

Natasha Dickhout was the one who pulled Ruth's arm by putting a demon square on all sides and letting him release black smoke.

'Long time no see. Ruth. "

She is the woman who locked Ruth and Ed, who used to be her companions, into her creation of a dream story and made them do a play that never ends.

Ruth ended the play as safely as she wanted and took away her right to liberation, but for some strange reason she liked it and nearly got locked up. Ultimately, by Alec, who rushed, Natasha was worn out until she couldn't get back together, and Ruth and the others left her in their dreams as a punishment for scolding people... For some reason, she appears before Ruth.

Strangely, she didn't look like the last old woman she saw, she looked like a curly redhead reaching up to her waist, a slightly plump and luscious woman with porcupines in her mouth.

"Come on, where?“ One who holds the fate of XX. "Reincarnate! The only thing left for you is reincarnation!

Angry “star" voices echo from all sides. But that figure doesn't show up in front of Ruth. By this black smoke we have lost sight of Ruth and he seems desperate to look for her.

Don't worry, he can't see us. The spiritual world is longer for me, so I can't beat the kind of guy who looks at me. '

Natasha said confidently.

"The spiritual world? Isn't this the post-mortem world?

"Oh, that's what you thought?

Natasha looks out for surprises. But he immediately gave Ruth a serene look to reassure him.

Ruth, listen carefully. You're not completely dead yet.

"Huh!?

'I don't know why, but you are now a being with a spirit, or soul, away from the flesh. Sure, if I stayed like this, I'd be dead, but I'm not dead yet. For the most part, if I were really dead, there would be no way I could see you, would there?

Ruth says he is now in a state where his soul drifts in this world. He's stepping in front of complete death, the extinction of his soul.

'Well, Ruth doesn't really come to me, so he hurries things up, reaches out a little outside the territory - I mean, you must have come here. You don't want to fail the complete awakening you've long wanted.'

The “star” doesn't seem to be the one who should be here.

Natasha was able to come and help Ruth because she was used to being away from her flesh for nearly a thousand years and only her soul. In other words, he said it would have been difficult to come to see Ruth without those powers that had shamed him.

"I'm sorry, I can't believe Natasha's fortune. If you believe me, this isn't happening. '

"Oh, you cared about that?

Natasha looked a little unexpected.

"You're the first person to know about me, and you're so determined to believe in fortune that you can continue your life. I'm more likely to be fooled and worried about believing it. Because less than half the people who knew my reputation took it seriously. '

Ruth decided to keep quiet about what she cared so much about when she just heard.

"That's why you tried to keep me in my world then."

"That's what happened."

"I was rushed here as soon as I could because I knew you didn't believe me."

Natasha said she had been aware of Ruth's soul from afar since that incident.

That's why no one can find me, he quickly perceived Ruth drifting with his soul alone, and he rushed me.

"More than that, I've been listening to you guys for a while now, but Ruth and that brave guy have been a lot more complicated."

"... can you believe in reincarnation or something?

'Well, if you do fortune telling or stay in a place like this all the time, to some extent. Though I kept my mouth shut because no one would believe me.'

Natasha, who continued to make up a lot of people, said she was only marginally aware of the existence of something more than her own. But this is the first time we've met.

'But don't worry. He's still here. - Well, let's call him "steward" rather than "star". He seems to be trying to manage us. "

"Admin...... maybe that does suit you better"

“Stars" seemed obsessed with making it their ideal form, even as Ruth and his star creatures "fulfill their hopes". I was frustrated by "myself not being able to fulfill the star's wishes," and while I said I should not put my hands directly on the star creatures, I came out by the outrage of twisting my interpretations and using Alec and Ruth. And now he's chasing Ruth, who doesn't reincarnate as he wishes. I guess they do want to manage it.

"But if it's true, it's hard for administrators to control it. That's why you didn't get your hands on me directly. I never used the word 'dead' against you. '

'Speaking of which...'

The administrator used the expression "flesh and soul separated," but Ruth's "dead?" I didn't answer anything. That's just what Ruth assumed on his own.

"That administrator is trying to make Ruth think he's dead and give up this world. To solicit into a world without flesh or spirit within one's territory. If you take my hand, it's over. I can't go back to this world. '

Natasha let go of Ruth's hand and pushed her back.

'So go! And go back to the brave man who's about to explode. "

"So, but what about Mr. Natasha?

Natasha tells Ruth to go, but herself stops her legs on the spot.

"Oh, you play a lot with me, and you worry about me trying to lock you up?

It did fit her hard eyes because of Natasha, but there's no way she still cares that you've come this far to help me.

Saying so, Natasha smiled cutely and bitterly like a girl.

'I'm glad, but unfortunately. It's a bit of a failure and the main unit (from) is gone for the time being.'

'Huh?'

Natasha broke up with Ruth and the others before returning to the main unit for a long time to heal. But he said he failed in his unfamiliar main life and fell off a cliff.

Originally to the spiritual body, thanks to being accustomed to the mere presence of the soul, the body lost its soul with a dead bounce and could only prevent all extinctions. But they also noticed that there was no place to return and their presence was gradually diminished.

Natasha brightly said, "I knew, unlike the Spirit, it would be difficult to preserve oneself without the presence of a stable vessel".

'That's why I thought it would be just fine to help Ruth. Something that doesn't suit me that disappears naturally. I've done a lot of bad things, but at the end of the day, you want to scatter it as a good one?

"Well, then, you stay like this, whoa!

"Who holds the fate of XX," you don't have to run away. Come here now. '

Talking to Natasha, the “star" - the administrator - appeared again directly behind Ruth. Natasha immediately enters between Ruth and the administrator.

'Come on, let's not chat. Go on, Ruth. And return to this world at all costs. That brave man needs you. "

"But Mr. Natasha..."

"Ruth! Remember. The spiritual world, will - stronger thoughts win. Even though he's a janitor, there's more to winning than coming down to our field. So leave it to me. '

Without looking back, Natasha pushed Ruth's arm with her back hand.

"For the last time, let me protect what I wanted to protect too."

To that word, spoken on her small back, Ruth remembered her involvement with her. The never-ending world of her mansion. A life that was never saved. Something she really wanted to protect.

Ruth holds his fist.

'... thank you, Natasha. Goodbye......'

Ruth ran opposite Natasha in the direction she was headed.

'Come on, if you want to get close to that kid, let him try to kill me. I won't let you take it from me again.'

Darker black smoke spreads from behind Ruth, along with Natasha's roar. It began to cover all the white worlds.

As Ruth turns her back, she is raising black smoke so that a creature in the shape of a big red butterfly spreads her body. Ruth's vision made the administrator completely invisible.

"Mr. Natasha......"

Ruth keeps moving forward, indulging herself in wanting to turn back. Run straight through a world covered in darkness with the power of Natasha.

"But where can I go back to this world?"

As far as the earlier footage shows, Ruth's body was already dead without merit of Alec's treatment.

'Yes, because they pulled my heart out...'

The hand that took Ruth's life was pulling out her heart. That's because I understand that playback due to defects is difficult. I guess he took a troublesome means to ensure that he killed Ruth and triggered the awakening of the brave. I don't think my soul will come back to life where it came from.

But as Ruth continued to run, driven by anxiety, he saw a square light in a world covered in darkness.

"What is that?

That square isn't just a square, it's rhomboid in one way or another. It was a strange - brown colour - in this world with only the black around it and Ruth's own white. The brown plate appears to be a fine piece of wood with a gradual diagonal cube.

'Is that... no way!?

Ruth looked familiar with the wooden workmanship.

- This is a guardian.

"Keepsake?

"Yes, it is a guardian that is given to Celestial clerics when they hold their place. It is told," Protect the soul of the equipment- "

"That's the guard Eliza gave me!

Orha, whose existence has disappeared since I was in this world. But the guardian who was supposed to have given it to Orha appeared before Ruth. Besides, the colors and shapes remain the same as what Ruth has seen in this world.

Ruth began to run straight toward the guard. It doesn't matter how you get back to your dead body, anyway, now it was a prerequisite to get out of the world with administrators.

Eventually, you start to see a brightly colored world ahead of your guard. It also conveyed noisy noises.

'Go back. You mustn't go that way. You have fulfilled your mission - be adult. Don't you want to be strong and reincarnate!

An administrator's voice echoes as he looks down at Ruth from behind a dark world.

'I don't need that. I live with Alec now!

Ruth continued to jump and move on with the admin's inviting words. Straight.

- Alec, I'll be right back. Wait for me!

Ruth desperately thinks strongly of Alec, who is confused in this world. A sad face, a remorseful face, a obstinate face, a gentle face, a smile.

When the thought of Alec's face spread all at once in his brain, the light in front of him covered Ruth at once.

"Wow!

Suddenly, he pulled his body, and Ruth threw it out into a glowing world.

Ruth, who could no longer kick the ground, spun to roll off. I couldn't tell up or down, and eventually when I hit something and stopped, the sound cleared up like I'd ever heard separated the walls.
