Surviving as a Barbarian in the Game - Episode 328
328Fire ouroboros (3)
Some people will think it's foolish.
People are bound to die someday, and everyone experiences loss at least once in this world..
An all too common tragedy.
Some might be surprised.
The woman who seemed to have no blood or tears was unable to overcome the death of her family and was heading towards destruction..
Some people will think I'm weak.
20Over the years, I have not been able to overcome alone what everyone else can overcome..
Even Amelia herself felt it wasn't wrong..
but…….
Puuk-!
Nevertheless, my sister would definitely say this.
It must have been very difficult to brush the hair of my younger brother who was always young and required a lot of work..
Leaving the sorrow behind.
He would have even ignored the reprimand asking me why I did such a thing and hugged me tightly, saying I had a hard time..
Even though everyone in the world feels uncomfortable with her, and some people point fingers at her, calling her a cold-hearted woman who doesn't know emotions..
To my sister, I'm just a tearful, young younger brother..
Because he was the only person in this world who could treat me like that..
Yeah, I'm sure it was.…….
“sorry…….”
“Who are you apologizing to??”
Amelia closed her eyes, ignoring the pain radiating from her abdomen..
“sister…….”
In the end, nothing was achieved.
20I've been building up my strength for years in preparation for this day, but it wasn't enough to overcome that man..
I tried to talk to him to clear up the misunderstanding that he was related to the Order of the Rose, but he wouldn't even listen..
Eventually a battle broke out, and I desperately bided my time so my sister could escape..
But, that's as far as it goes.
“What, were you looking at something in vain?.”
The man sneered and twisted his sword..
There was a burning pain at the injured area..
“Do you think I'll let him run away??”
The vivid pain brought her mind back to reality..
“You should see what I had to go through.”
Soon, Amelia's body fell as she pulled out her sword, and the man grabbed her by the hair and dragged her forward..
What happened next was very clear..
[I can tell you what it feels like to lose.]
He will harm your sister in front of his eyes..
Just like that day.
Cheolpuk-!
My heart flutters with every step I take..
Consciousness became blurred, and the scene in front of me changed every time I opened my eyes..
“As expected, I didn't go far..”
A man's whisper.
“Uh, sister…….”
“Go first! This is my sister……!”
A conversation that happened that day too.
“Amelia……!”
A sword aimed at my childhood self.
and…….
Puuk-!
Sister hugging her younger brother.
“sister……!!”
The man's sword pierced my sister's chest just like that time..
‘In the end, nothing changed?…….’
Amelia finally realized.
This is the end of 20 years of hope.
So the ending of those two living happily ever after is something that only exists in fairy tales..
“That's a nice look.”
In reality, there was only a stupid and weak human woman standing there..
Puuk-!
Soon the man pulled out the knife that was stuck in her body. And at the same time, consciousness faded and the scene changed again..
A dark sewer with a bloody smell..
Kwaaaaang-!
With a roar that filled the passage.
“Oh my, why are you crying?.”
I felt warmth on my cold skin..
“It's not over yet.”
It's not over?
What on earth does this mean?.
I couldn't figure it out.
but…….
“It was a lot of hard work. Now leave it to me and get some rest..”
With that one word, the tension in my body eased and my eyes closed..
“When I wake up, it will all be over.”
It was the last scene her consciousness allowed..
***
As soon as Amelia lost consciousness, I cried out loud..
“What are you doing! Take her sister and run away!”
Amelia in childhood.
In short, it was a shout out to Ngmelia..
“iced coffee……!”
Nmelia looked confused for a moment by my instructions, then started running, carrying her small body around her..
Huh, then I can leave the next one to the old man.…….
I shifted my gaze..
“you……!”
Luchenprague was seen looking around, unable to hide his embarrassment. I think they're checking to see if the 'Knight of Light' came too.…….
‘This guy is really funny too.’
“If that's the case, just jump out. I came all the way here so I could pick something up to eat.?”
He didn't answer my question..
I just avoid eye contact with a strange expression..
“you… Did you end up here after wandering around looking for a way out??”
Even though I thought it couldn't be possible, I asked a question just in case..
To this he gave a short answer.
“……Fate just led me.”
“Huh, you sound like fate.”
I couldn't help but laugh, but when I thought about it again, I realized that the term 'fate' wasn't really wrong..
If everything goes as planned no matter how hard you struggle, how is that any different from fate?.
While I was thinking about that, he asked me a question..
“by the way… Did you come alone??”
“okay.”
Because I wasn't even friends with the Knight of Light to begin with..
Since it wasn't something to hide, I just said yes and then asked what I was curious about..
“Hey, but let me ask you one more thing. Why are you so obsessed with this guy??”
“…you don't need to know.”
“Oh, it's harsh.”
While saying that, I slightly moved my gaze to check on Amelia. The injury was recovering so quickly that it could be distinguished with the naked eye..
It was thanks to the fact that I tore one more bond scroll before storming in..
Simply put, it means that with the three-person bond, Amelia is no longer affected by the [Unspoken Spirit]..
‘It would have been easier if I had been awake at all..’
It's a bit disappointing, but what can you do?.
If it's for the right to recruit companions (SSR), it's not worth going through this much trouble..
Yeah, I mean…….
“Get out of the way. If she only puts out that girl then you—”
“What are you saying, silence one tool?.”
I clapped my hands.
“Don't talk nonsense, just attack me.”
This would be the last battle of this time travel trip..
***
“Heo, heo, heo…….”
A girl running down a sewer passage let out hot breath. Her muscles, heated as they were, showed no signs of cooling down, and an even more intense heat radiated from behind her, her wet back..
“Uh, sister… Trigrams, okay, beggar……?”
Even though Amelia was running with all her might, making it difficult to breathe, she continued to talk to Laura, who had jumped in..
“…….”
no answer came back.
But the more she did, the more she tried to ignore the ominous feeling and continued to move her feet. But maybe it was because she was running at her physical limit, even carrying Laura on her back??
“Ugh……!”
Amelia, who was running at a cantering speed, lost her balance and fell. It wasn't that her foot got caught on something, she simply felt weak in her leg..
“Hey, sister! are you okay? huh?”
Amelia checked Laura's condition before even seeing her twisted ankle after falling. She wondered if the injury might have been caused by the fall..
“Oh, Melia…….”
At that time, Laura must have come to her senses from shock, and a voice came out of Laura's mouth..
“Hey, sister! Okay, it’s okay! There's not much left now. Without speaking—”
“alone…….”
The voice came out weakly and could not continue to the end, but Amelia could tell what had to be said..
You're telling me to leave you alone and go alone..
If I had the energy to say something, I would have added all kinds of reasons, such as I'm already bad or it would be more reasonable for you to live..
but…….
“Sorry, I don't know what you're saying..”
Amelia pretended not to hear and carefully supported Laura's limp body..
15Laura's body, which was 1 cm tall, felt particularly small..
Maybe it was because of my mood, but I felt lighter than before..
There is no way his physical strength has recovered now..
“blood…….”
It was because of the blood shed.
The weight of life that had filled Laura's body disappeared, and her body became lighter..
Amelia leaned her sister's body against the wall, tore off her clothes and put pressure on her wounds..
And I poured all the potions I had..
I was anxious to get out of that place, but it was something I should have done long ago..
‘Me, why am I so stupid?…….’
I felt a sense of shame.
If you were always calm, you would have done exactly what you had to do even in this situation..
“Ughhh……!”
As the wound began to heal thanks to the potion, Laura wriggled as if in pain..
There were thick veins on his forehead and neck..
“Hey, sister! Please be patient…….”
Amelia carried Laura’s body again..
However, the car was just about to stand up..
Quaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa-!
The passage shook with a loud noise..
and…….
Too doo doo doo.
The ceiling collapsed and rocks fell..
At the same time, Amelia’s body fell forward..
It's because someone pushed her from behind.
Cooung-!
Amelia fell forward and hurriedly turned her back..
Then I saw my sister.
It was such an unrealistic sight..
The scene where the lower body of my beloved sister is crushed by a huge rock is.
“Amel, Leah…….”
“Uh, sister…….”
Amelia approached her like a man possessed..
Then Laura shook her hand away..
“Well, what are you doing?!”
As Amelia screamed,.
Laura's helpless, half-open eyes turned to her..
“There was a time when you felt resentful... uh.”
“Oh, I know. Ah, even my sister would have said that. Anyway, now that you know, stop being stubborn.—”
“listen……!”
Amelia kept her mouth shut in response to Laura’s shout..
The voice sounded like phlegm boiling, and it wasn't loud enough to be called a shout, but for some reason, the force of it felt like I couldn't refuse it, and my body froze..
Tuk.
Laura placed her hand on Amelia's cheek..
And unlike before, he spoke in a very kind voice..
“Bara, you came..”
“…….”
“It's what you've always wanted, right?…….”
At those words, something flowed down Amelia’s cheeks..
I couldn't tell if it was sweat or tears..
But one thing is certain.
Exciting-!
Amelia's heart started beating like it was broken..
Maybe, even though my mind tried to deny it, I knew it in the end..
“Why why… That's what I'm saying…….”
Laura's words are full of herself..
As if this moment could be the last.
“Uh, sister… Do not give up. You also took the potion, right? Now we just have to go a little further... … . Don't worry about the stones. Well, I'll clean it up soon. Well, it will definitely happen... … . huh?”
In response to Amelia's plea, Laura pursed her lips with a painful expression..
Of course it was only for a moment.
“Forget all the painful memories that happened here.”
“…….”
“Ordinary life... Finally, it's starting for you too.”
Laura smiled brightly, pushing up her twitching jaw muscles..
and…….
“……!”
It happened so quickly.
Tuk.
Laura stretched out her hand and pulled out the dagger that was strapped to Amelia's waist, and inserted the dagger..
on one's own neck.
Puuk-!
“Oh, no……!”
Amelia hurriedly pulled out her sword..
Then, I sprinkled some of the remaining potion on the wound and closed the wound with both hands to stop the bleeding..
but…….
“Oh, no. No no…….”
That wasn't enough.
The blood that was flowing out stopped..
Cheeeeeeeek.
The same was true for the blood, which reacted to the potion by making a boiling sound..
The warmth that passed through my fingertips disappeared..
The blood was sticky, but no longer hot..
“iced coffee… Ahhh…….”
Amelia realized.
My sister is no longer here..
“Ahhhhhhh!!!”
Amelia screamed like a person who had lost her mind and hugged Laura's upper body..
and at that moment.
The ceiling collapsed once more, pouring out rocks..
Hehehehe-!
Amelia saw this, but did not avoid it..
We were going to stay like this until the end..
However, the cruel world did not allow even this..
“…Tsk!”
Her body fell backwards, as if someone was pulling her backside..
Cooung-!
The back of my head seems to have hit the wall, my vision is shaking..
As her consciousness faded further and further away, Amelia looked at her sister buried in the rubble..
It was in the meantime.
plod.
I heard it from somewhere, pretending to be popular.
Amelia reflexively turned her head in the direction of the sound..
An old man was walking.
“who…….”
Hearing Amelia's muttering, the old man looked at her without any change in expression. However, if you look deeply at her, she seems like someone who is worried somewhere..
After such a short silence.
“Wow, that's so much to ask for.”
Soon the old man sighed and opened his mouth..
“Auril Gavis. That's Nobu's name..”
