You Will Be Blessed If You Do Good Deeds¿-Chapter 196
After the last attempt ended in failure.
The strange creature fell to the ground and slowly began to scatter into dust.
In fact, this defeat was a fate that had already been decided when Yoo Han-ul joined.
That monster had gone wild, going beyond the limits of its body.
It seemed that it was trying to explode its magical power targeting Dong-gwi-eojin, but even that was stopped by my restraint, so all that was left was complete death.
“... ... Ha, I see.”
The monster quietly spat out as it watched its body slowly disintegrate.
“This is... ... defeat.”
“Yeah, it must be quite bitter.”
“I guess so... ... You have a purpose to fulfill, but you have to end your life without being able to do so. It’s so hard.”
However, even as he said that, the monster’s face looked somewhat relaxed.
As if he had put down a big burden.
A new clone created by separating the stubbornness from Orbis’ soul.
Perhaps it was just a clone, so much so that it couldn’t do anything about itself, running towards only one goal... ...
The mission given by Orbis.
Rather, it might have been released from its bondage due to death.
Now, the monster, which had almost only its upper body left, turned its head and looked at me.
“You said you were no longer my brother, but I still have something to say.”
It was unexpected.
I thought it would die while cursing.
“What do you want to say?”
“The conclusion that I am just a clone was right, but ... ... the reasoning leading to that was full of errors.”
I was about to retort that it was trying to make people sick of me until the end, but after making eye contact with the monster, I shut my mouth.
The strangely odd facial features that had been half Theo and the other half Orbis were now only the parts that looked like Orbis.
Those blue eyes.
It was a color that brought back memories from long ago.
Before I became a great archmage, when this woman was not an ambitious princess but just my older sister... ... .
“No matter how much I think about it... ... there’s no prohibition against killing you.”
A tone that made it hard to tell whether he was mocking me or himself.
“Why couldn’t I kill you? Why did I... ... fail in the end, even at the last moment? I finally know the answer to that difficult question.”
I somehow didn’t want to hear that answer.
But before I could cover my ears, the cunning tongue spoke.
“My soul simply... ... didn’t want to kill you. I boasted that I could sacrifice everything for the world.”
She was even more vicious than the devil.
“Indeed, it was just stubbornness.”
That was the end of the lament.
The blue eyes lost their light, and the body turned to dust and scattered into the air until the end.
- The fragment of the ‘enemy of humanity’ was destroyed.
And the system message rose brilliantly as if celebrating death.
Like firecrackers.
- Congratulations! You are one step closer to succeeding in the ‘SAVE THE WORLD’ quest.
- The user, ‘Jeong Da-on’, succeeded in the ‘Good deeds are blessed’ quest. The ability restriction is lifted.
- The system begins searching for the fragment of the ‘enemy of humanity’... ... .
I quietly watched the scene, and grabbed the dust that was being blown away by the wind.
Yoo Han-ul, who was standing next to me, asked cautiously.
“You know, that... ... shouldn’t we have a funeral?”
“Are you crazy?”
“Huh? So that’s why you caught that... ... and collected it?”
“Don’t be mistaken.”
I snorted.
A funeral.
The more I learned about Yoo Han-ul’s personality, the more surprising it was.
Of course, in a negative sense.
“What kind of funeral is this... ... why me? What kind of funeral is this when a crazy woman who tried everything to kill me died? It’s not enough to hold a festival.”
If you are reading this translation anywhere other than Novelight.net or SilkRoadTL, it has been stolen.
The fireworks set off by the system were so welcome.
You didn’t just want to kill me?
Even now, when I look in the mirror, I can clearly see the marks where that fake strangled me, and there was still a scar on my left arm.
“You’ll lie until the end.”
People are said to be honest only in the face of death, but is that because they’re fake?
Updat𝓮d from frёewebnoѵēl.com.
The fragment of Orbis kept lying until it died and then disappeared.
Why on earth did you lie like that? Even though there’s no benefit to lying to me now... ... .
‘No, this might be the work of the main body of Orbis.’
He must have input a specific sentence to be spit out when his clone disappears.
That was the Orbis I knew.
A king who protects the human world, a great emperor who would do anything for that purpose.
But as a single human, he is the worst human.
That’s Orbis.
He has no relation to the current Jeong Da-on, who was my older sister in my previous life.
“If you have a handkerchief, give me one.”
I searched my pockets and snatched Yoo Han-ul’s handkerchief, put the dust of his flesh inside it, and wrapped it tightly.
Proper storage... ...Until I find a glass bottle or something, this is the only way to temporarily store it.
“Then why did you collect them?”
I looked at Yoo Han-ul, who was asking a pitiful question, appropriately.
“There’s no way he used normal materials to make something like that. Just analyzing this and finding out the material will help us figure out the real location of Orbis.”
“Really? It’s so broken that you can’t even tell its shape, so it doesn’t seem easy to study.”
“But we should try.”
“Then I’ll take it. Give it to me.”
“Huh?”
Yoo Han-ul held out his hand.
“It’s much easier for me to contact the world’s most renowned research institutes. Originally, research requires more brains than excellent scholars.”
“... ... What are you going to do with a bunch of idiots? Do you think a lot of people will solve it? Are you saying that after seeing the system?”
“But since you’re alone and there are many research institutes, it should be faster. You’re still in your twenties, serving in your mandatory military service, and you don’t have any special equipment, right?”
“... ... ”
I glared at Yoo Han-ul.
At this point, I could have just roughly ended the conversation, but Yoo Han-ul shamelessly continued.
“And it’ll be faster for me to find out where to get the materials. I’m your senior in the hunter industry. I guess my information network is wider?”
“It’s great because I’m your senior. Don’t make me laugh. I know you have a narrow network... ... I can find out through Han Jae-young.”
“That person is secretly being controlled here and there, so he doesn’t have a very good network in the magic world. In a way, it’s similar to your situation in your past life... ... .”
“Shut up, I’ll take care of it.”
I quickly put the handkerchief in my inventory.
- Collected the ?? of ‘Enemy of Humanity’.
- The system is looking for fragments of ‘Enemy of Humanity’... ... .
If I itemize it like this, it will also help the system find Orbis.
“Now that I get back, I’ll have to get busy. This time, it was a fake clone that wouldn’t affect the main body even if I killed it, but there must be a clone that would affect the main body, so I’ll prioritize that clone... ... .”
“Hmm? Oh, right.”
Even though I was giving him hints, Yoo Han-ul didn’t seem particularly interested.
“The sky is clear.”
Instead, Yoo Han-ul looked up at the sky, saying something quite sentimental.
After all, this was the world of Yoo Han-ul’s past life.
The place he had tried so hard to protect in his past life.
And the stubbornness of the king he had served had turned to dust. He was also feeling sentimental.
“I pray for the soul of the deceased... ... It doesn’t seem appropriate to say such things.”
However, this was more than just sentiment, so I was honestly surprised.
“Your personality is... ... strange. How can you say such things to someone who almost killed you?”
“Even if he’s your enemy, it’s not like you can’t show respect. The belief that you want to save this world... ... I respect that. It’s just that it’s a belief that you want to achieve by harming others, so I have no choice but to confront it now.”
It’s not easy, Yoo Han-ul said, putting his sword back in its scabbard.
“And Da-on, a funeral... ... is actually held for the living. It’s better to hold a funeral.”
“You’re still talking nonsense like that... ... .”
“Just as my life isn’t a debt that I have to repay, your emotions aren’t a sin. I... ... I think it’s okay for you to be sad.”
I raised my eyebrows at Yoo Han-ul’s words.
“I’m sad? You know I died because of that, right? That doesn’t make sense logically.”
“Emotions don’t move with logic. I was betrayed by my family, and they died. It’s not strange to be sad.”
“No... ... Are you mistaken? Orbis and I have not been family for a long time, and the only emotion I feel is anger.”
“Really?”
Yoo Han-ul backed away when I said that on the subject of absurd talk.
“If that’s what you’re saying... ... Then, I’ll go first. Hmm, I think we need to find a good place to restore the system... ... .”
I turned my back on Yoo Han-ul and walked away as I said that.
‘... ... Stab that?’
I could probably kill him now.
“How can you be so rude.”
However, I eventually gave up on attacking Yoo Han-ul.
I realized anew that I had known that author... ... for too long.
Language is a tool for communicating between humans, but that doesn’t mean that the language I use conveys the truth.
Sometimes, human language becomes a complete mask.
And Yoo Han-ul saw right through the mask I had put up with my words.
That was so unpleasant, so disgusting... ... .
“This is why I hate warriors.”
I muttered quietly.
“To see through something like that.”
Well, it might be okay for warriors, people who have the courage to not break no matter what they go through, to look inside themselves.
But I am a person who does not know how to face things like a warrior.
Sadness behind anger i don’t know how to face it and hold a funeral to relieve that sadness.
All I know how to do is... ... cut off the emotions I couldn’t digest.
I felt like I would die if I tried to digest them.
It wasn’t so wrong when Orbis’s Fragment called me weak.
“Kiyuuung!”
-Should I kill him?!
Leo let out a sharp cry, sensing my emotions.
I shook my head, quietly soothing the symbol of anger I couldn’t digest.
“Don’t do that.”
Yoo Han-ul was certainly rude, but this time I owed him a debt.
The warrior of my previous life ran to cut my throat on the king’s orders, but Yoo Han-ul of this life jumped over the world to save me.
If you put that debt and this rudeness on the scale, it’ll probably be the same.
“There’ll be a chance for revenge later... ... maybe.”
I ◈ Nоvеlіgһт ◈ (Continue reading) looked at the field where the traces of a fierce battle remained.
The emperor who had been desperately shouting his will to achieve it even if it meant killing others was nowhere to be found, and my older sister who had been holding me on her lap and comforting me had long since disappeared.
Only feelings with no place to go remained and shook me.
Now... ...I know that I can’t just cut off these feelings and resolve them, even without that annoying friend pointing them out.
For a moment, I felt like gathering dark clouds to make it rain, but I stopped.
Well, there was still one place left to vent my feelings with no place to go.
It was a night in a season where the late-night breeze suddenly became cold, as if the sunlight of the day had never been hot.
Nam Sung-hee opened the window.
Even if it was called the garden next to the hospital, it was extremely shabby.
The faint shadows created by the streetlights illuminating that shabby place seeped through the cracks in the window like darkness.
Nam Sung-hee smiled faintly and spoke to the shadow that was swaying like a living creature.
“I knew you’d come.”
“It’s not fun.”
The shadow soon took the form of a person.
It was the familiar figure of a girl.
Nam Sung-hee frowned at Jeong Da-on.
“Why... ... did you cut your hair?”
Now that he thought about it, it wasn’t just his hair.
His arm was wrapped in a bandage, and he could faintly smell medicine that wasn’t from this hospital room.
‘If he was injured, is this an opportunity?’
Nam Sung-hee briefly considered taking out the knife he had hidden in his bosom, but decided to wait for an opportunity.
Even if the opponent was injured, he was still a magician.
Even if he was waiting for an opportunity, he had to be more careful.
“Oh, this.”
Jeong Da-on ran his hand through his short bob. His hair grew longer as he touched it.
It’s something that physically cannot happen, but a wizard can do such things so calmly.
Nam Sung-hee’s stomach twisted a little at the sight of him using magic so casually.
It was always a twisting experience to see someone born with the power he so desperately desired.
“So, what on earth did you come here for?”
“I came to keep a promise.”
“Promise?”
“I made a promise with Lee Woon-gyeol. I said I would help you get revenge on you... ... Well, that’s actually half an excuse.”
Jeong Da-on said lazily.
“I came to take out my anger on you.”
