With my brother and sister. VRMMO games.
Episode 99: The Tower of Dusk and the Lonely Brave ⑤ ☆
Change of place, real world.
That is the story of the time when Kuyuan Linoa was chosen as Miro's vessel.
The boy, being a childhood friend and having an affair with Linoa of the same class, if he looked at him, was throwing up evil and off his face.
"I don't want to see Linoa's face anymore! Get out of here!
One day, after the situation persisted, a terrible word came out of the boy's mouth, like leaving the momentum to him.
To the obvious word of rejection, Linoa changes her complexion.
"Yeah, I'm going somewhere."
"Become?"
Linoa, who opened the textbook, with her comatose eyes, says with a vain grin.
In an unexpected reaction, the turned boy gave a frightened look.
"I am Miro's vessel. I am the goddess of this world's salvation"
Linoa's crystal clear little voice mumbles as it flows.
That was a delicate voice reminiscent of snow that seemed to melt just by touching it.
"I was chosen as Miro's vessel. So as for 'me' anymore, I will never see you again"
"Eh."
To the decisive words, the boy unequivocally wavered his expression.
A meaningful statement made by Linoa.
Carefully identifying the reason for this, the boy asks in surprise.
"Hey, what are you talking about?
"Wang Kun, Mr. Ai Li. Come on, accept Miro. And let me fulfill Master Xian's wish."
It was like, a prayerful plea.
Linoa's words pierced the boy's heart more than any other ever.
Linoa, realizing that the boy's expression was stiff and strong, makes him flinch like a little troubled.
"I will be reborn tomorrow."
"Reborn?
"Yeah. So, starting tomorrow, I'll never see you"
To the boy's doubts, Linoa smiles as if a chest grab had been taken.
"Hey, Yongta-kun, do you want anything? My hope is to become Miro."
"Want...?
The figure of Linoa, who tries to embody the ideals sought by Xian, touches the harp line of Yongtai Kashihara's heart.
"Yongta-kun is definitely doing" Acrea of Genesis "on solo, right?"
"Oh."
Linoa stared at Yongtai so as to show off her tummy proposal to keep.
"Hey, don't you want to go into 'Legion'? Yongta-kun's wish will come true."
"I'm not going in. I mean, why do you normally talk to me when you're out of business?"
"When I become Master Miro, it's not the 'me' that Yongta-kun already knows. So I wanted to say my final goodbye, even when I was out of business."
To Linoa's unexpected invitation, Yong-tae tries to gauge her sincerity, but she reconsiders that it will turn out to be a nod in future developments.
That - to call it salvation, could have been too cruel a choice.
At this time, what was offered was hope or despair?
Even now, he doesn't know that.
But this is what inspired him to explore Legion.
And it leads to a foretaste that will be associated with the Hope.
The day after Linoa said goodbye to Yongta...
Xian unsecures the door and enters the room where the 'Legion' guild master is holding off.
There was plenty of lab-like space just where the gruesome equipment was placed.
Displays and small machines connect to the central throne and the pedestal installed next to it.
"Dear Miro. From now on, we will perform the" ritual of assimilation "of Miro and Kuyuan Linoa."
Miro answers nothing to a report from Xian, who has fallen on one knee.
Xian breathed, pinching a brief silence before smiling.
"Please be delighted, Miro. At the end of this ritual, Miro can also manifest himself in the real world."
Xian deepens her grin with a face full of certainty.
A throne connected to a rugged device or monitor.
So while still sleeping, Miro sat down.
"Dear Miro..."
Sitting on the pedestal next to it, Linoa watches what happens with a tense face.
"It's okay."
"Yes, Linoa."
As the girl's parents had stated, she thought and embraced that small body as she ran over to Linoa trying to kick the conditioning.
"... father, mother. Me, are you sure you'll be reborn into a goddess?
Linoa leans her neck frankly in doubt at the words of her parents, who are guild members of 'Legion' and researchers at this institution.
"Oh. Linoa would take over the will of the goddess"
"Because Master Xian will fulfill your wish"
"Yeah. But..."
Linoa's heart was shaken tremendously by the voice of her powerful parents.
"... it was heartbreaking that you and Yongta-kun couldn't make up"
A delicate voice that is likely to break even now spins words.
"Master Xian. Miro's assimilation into Kuyuan Linoa is always possible."
It was one of the guild members of Legion who manipulated and told the monitored equipment.
"Finally, is this the time?"
Xian smiles abusively at reports from guild members.
"Generate!"
"Eh."
Linoa's body jumped heavily along with Sage's signal.
Miro's body glows red and feels like Linoa's body is losing its strength.
Miro's figure disappears to melt, becoming a particle of light and being sucked into Linoa.
…………
After the electronic sounds stopped and the ritual was over, Linoa's eyes had no light and her expression was vain.
"Linoa!"
"She's Miro now."
Immediately denying Linoa's parents' cry, Xian moves Linoa's body to the throne.
"Come on, Master Miro. Please give us your blessing again."
Xian prays and consecrates Linoa, where Miro lived.
It was as if, once again, it was a sacred ritual of oath of allegiance to a master separated by some circumstance.
