Pick Me Up-Episode 369

5. Light of Heart(2)

* * *

Flurries!

When Aaron put firewood in the brazier underneath, the flames were neutered.

The smoke rose with the flames..

Chisel!

On the iron plate above the brazier, the material began to ripen.

“Kolok! Kolok!”

Aaron had a cough..

The windows were all open, but the smoke didn't get out of the way..

We need to build a new chimney..

‘Let's see, here…….’

Aaron threw out his hand and looked at the cookbook next to him..

‘Add a moderate amount of salt and pepper?’

Right amount?

It's a good amount..

Aaron took out the salt and pepper as soon as he could and poured it over the pan.

‘When the eggs are moderately ripe, add a moderate amount of cheese?’

Moderately ripe?

Put a moderate amount of cheese?

Aaron frowned, picked up a bunch of cheese and put it on the pan.

And grabbed the pan handle and whipped it.

‘After the right time, take it out properly.’

Suitable time?

Maybe that was enough..

Aaron takes the frying pan off the griddle properly, and the finished product is properly finished The dish was lined up on the plate.

It's okay..

The omelette is properly finished.

It's a little different from the picture in the cookbook, but you must have done the recipe. Will.

‘It smells weird..’

It doesn't matter..

If you did the recipe, it would definitely be delicious.

“Master! Come out!”

“Aang? It's already done.?”

A short time later, a matted-haired boy appeared in the dining room.

The boy yawned droopingly and sat down in a chair.

“Omelet, complete.”

“Well?”

The boy looked at the dishes on the table and frowned.

“What, this is.”

“This is a dish called omelet. Popular of the earth, which is eaten by properly baking eggs, such as steamed rice It's food..”

Aaron shook the cookbook he held in his hand.

The book contains recipes for various dishes of the earth.

It was a pretty useful thing for Aaron to refer to..

“Haa. It's annoying. It's enough to create an atmosphere..”

“No..”

An unidentified pill made of fallen leaves in a jar in a restaurant It's full of the same stuff..

Aka Wall song stage.

I said it was a substitute for a meal, but it's not a substitute for that..

‘We need to get human life back..’

Following the determination of such Aaron, several measures were taken for this cabin.

The most significant measures are directly connected to the storage in Niflheim A special warehouse has been created.

Easy to say, you can take Niflheim's stuff out here too.

Aaron's request was received by the therapist..

Therefore, in the shed in one of the huts, Aaron commissioned various ingredients and Supplies were piled up..

The warehouse is automated with high-dimensional magic, so the stuff you want is You can recall any kind.

The purpose was one.

‘Helping the Master.’

The dimension of Luanan was special..

Time flows slower than once outside.

No need to sleep or eat food.

But if you ignore human desires, your heart is devastated. Throw it away.

I had to get it back..

Human Life.

The omelette, the frying pan, and the fire were the result of Aaron's efforts.

I somehow managed to bring in cooking tools and ingredients.

The most essential element of man is eating.

Eat even if you're not hungry.

Eat when it's time.

I eat hard..

“Now, Master. Try it!”

Aaron sat in the opposite chair..

Hot steaming rose from each plate where the omelet rose.

The boy looked at Aaron as if he were tired, and a spoonful of food I ate it..

“How about?”

“This is it??”

“Example?”

“You said you were trying to annoy me, to restore my heart.?”

“What's the word. I've done my best..”

“You eat it..”

Aaron took a bite of his own omelette..

Really, suitable…….

“Town!”

Kolok! Kolok!

Aaron heard Sarre and coughed several times..

Silence followed for a while, and the boy said.

“I'll do the cooking in the future, so you can wash the dishes..”

“……Example.”

Even here, Aaron had no dexterity..

Straight away, the boy presented a delicious stew with stroked ingredients.

This is why I couldn't tell who was getting help..

After the meal is over.

Aaron grabbed the sleeve of the boy who was about to disappear somewhere..

“Where are you going??”

“No, why not again?”

“There are many glades in front of the cabin. Why don't you decorate it??”

“Aang?”

“We're building fields, we're planting seeds. Trees and flowers. I'm making a robbery..”

“All of a sudden, what's wrong??”

“Isn't that your master's hobby??”

“No, I do. All of a sudden, I'm asking why you're in trouble..”

“I wanted to do that, too. Can I do this? That garden is too far from here. Why don't you try a new one again??”

The boy blinked as if he were saying something..

“Let's rebuild that garden in front of the hut.?”

“It's even bigger. No matter who comes, it's amazing..”

“What are the seeds? What about manure? What about water? Where do you get the other ingredients??”

“It's all here..”

The warehouse that the therapist connected with Niflheim..

There's no matter how much material you need.

If it runs out, it will be charged a new one.

“You, I gave up training.?”

“Not. Let's do it in the rest of the time. Wouldn't it be a good afternoon?.”

I can't stop swinging a spear and stabbing it in the haze behind me..

The up doesn't stack up just because you spend time without Haril.

He had to prove his dream by action..

“They told you to do it.?”

The boy's gaze sharpened.

Aaron shook his head..

“Not. I chose it in my will..”

“You moved on to them. Bother Siri.”

“Would you like to ask me...... ?”

The boy thought about it with his arms around him..

“Hmm. I don't have anything to do..”

“That's right, right? That's right.?”

“It's been. I'm bored,but I'll hang out. Time to try and spank cum.”

“Good.!”

This is a step closer..

Aaron said to the boy, eating the schematic he had drawn up the night before.

‘This is the place to start..’

The wind doesn't blow, only the fallen leaves fall off constantly..

It was a bleak space for the mind to stay in..

I had to change the atmosphere..

“If you do this here,…….”

“That's not the case. The copper line is getting weird, right? If you make your way there.”

“Come on..”

“This is how it should be. Yay, are you kidding me? Did you bring me a snappy plan? I'm gonna die.!”

“Huck!”

“Gimme it, bastard! I'll weave it again, so you can carry the ingredients out of the warehouse..”

“Example…….”

Even here, Aaron had no dexterity..

Anyway, after a while, the two began to pick up the ground in front of the cabin.

With shovels, pitchforks, and other farm equipment, the soil was turned over and the stones were picked out.

It was the foundation work for creating a garden.

“Master..”

Aaron threw it out as he continued his work..

“Why, again.”

“What happens when I die?”

Aaron said casually.

“Like a human, you're not going to die normal.?”

“Did she let you know??”

“Well. I'm not sure..”

“Haa, it's annoying. Well, good. If you're curious, let me know. What happens when Up dies? It just disappears clean like a ghost, why.”

“No bodies left.?”

“Yeah..”

It meant that there was no one on the ground under the tombstone..

“What kind of process are you going through??”

“I don't get it right away. I'm alive for a while. It'll be fine for others to see..”

“That's it.?”

“Once the presence weakens..”

“What is the formula?”

“No one else cares..”

Pak!

The pitchfork and the stone at the end..

“Whatever it was before, it changed like a man. I don't care about you. I won't give you any attention. Like others..”

Aaron stopped working for a moment.

“Like others.?”

“It's going to be more and more. The strings of emotion are thin. This is it..”

“That's terrible..”

For a minute, Aaron imagined it..

The friends who were with life and death look at themselves with cold eyes Sight.

I shuddered..

“Your connection with people is gone..”

“Yeah..”

Pak!

Aaron pulled the stone from the pitchfork..

“What happens next?”

“Gradually forgotten. And later, it disappears altogether. The world won't even know you were there..”

Oblivion Beyond Death.

No one remembers himself.

No one reminds me that he was there..

‘…….’

If you go back home.

If Nina looks at herself with a face that she doesn't know anything about,.

That, maybe, is scarier than dying..

‘In order not to be like that,.’

Aaron looked at the master, who was grinding the ground next to him without speaking.

We need to get the boy out of here..

The boy goes out for a minute every time he has a job, but he's out. Can't see.

Because I'm coming back to Luanan anyway..

We need to get it out completely..

I had to get rid of the reason for the boy to stay here..

‘Is it because I'm immature.’

Aaron's strength is not comparable to a boy's.

I had no choice but to take the place of my mentor..

‘If I get stronger.’

If you take over the master's back completely,.

I wonder if my master can leave here and retire with confidence..

“Look at what.?”

“Nothing..”

Aaron burned his quiet determination..

I had to be strong..

Even more.

Time passed again.

Aaron went through a few fables, but as complete a memory as ever No disconnection occurred..

I was still remembering.

Own goals.

Aaron's cooking skills, which were lousy, have improved a little bit..

Because he squinted over the boy's shoulder and learned the skill.

A variety of flowers bloomed in the garden in front of the hut.

By the standards of the up, the unit of time called the year(年)was meaningless.

Flow follows.

As the flowers of the garden bloom, Aaron dreams over and over again of death and birth He piled up..

‘How much can we afford?.’

Time passes slower than outside..

But it was flowing slowly.

Can't stop the flow of years at all.

Lack.

More time was needed.

To be strong.

To help the master.

And then I was in the middle of it..

Stargazing It appeared.

“…….”

Aaron was lying in bed, turning over his morpho..

There is no need for physiological activities like sleep here.

I'm just lying down and spending time..

It was mimicking human life.

Even if you're not human..

「Dream.」

Yes..

Up Iran after all, a set of pure dreams.

In a dream position, Aaron's personality was nothing but impurity.

It was garbage to remove..

「To be strong.」

「To be pure and strong, without being disturbed by anything.」

Someone whispers..

「What's the strength for it??」

「Is it strong to get something?」

「Wasn't it strong to be strong??」

Aaron didn't look back..

Someone was behind it..

「What you did was not the ending you wished for.?」

「Didn't you give up on your family? To fulfill dreams.」

Aaron abandoned prioritizing Nina.

I wanted to be strong..

But now come.?

「When you want pure strength, when you want pure strength..」

「Now do you want to come and have a mind?」

What is pure.

Nothing else is needed.

To exclude all filth for one.

Even your own heart.

「True Strength is not bound by anything.」

Someone said.

「We must leave behind no insignificant human feelings or desires..」

「To be purely strong.」

Psychosis.

He's mentally ill..

“Shut up.…….”

「Dwell is proof that you are weak.」

Aaron raised his back in bed.

「chuckling, chuckling…….」

Middle of the room.

Beside the bed, someone is standing.

“Damn it.…….”

The shadow stands.

It was red as blood..

The red shadow looked at Aaron and laughed at him.

On the subject of pure strength, now come and hope for the human heart Aaron's contradictions were jilted.

‘Master..’

Aaron remembered the boy's words.

If the dream to be strong is really pure, there needs to be a personality No.

The original mind disappears, and the place is occupied by ghosts.

Then the identity of the shadow is clear.

‘It was like this..’

The nameless tombstone has grown in this way..

Aaron looked at the red shadows..

「I'll let you know..」

The red shadow reached out.

An insidious voice came up like a scrape inside..

「I will tell you pure strength.」

「Not bound by anything, not bound, above all, clean…….」

Pak!

Aaron dashed through the silvery window at the side of the bed, looking out at the shadows.

The red shadow disappeared.

“…….”

Annoying.

Aaron snorted.

Snappy delusions, just bothersome.
