31The second word overturns the game board (Episode 495)
will do… No, the girl Vichy really treasured the beads she found on the frozen ground..
“rattle.”
“Yes, Bish.”
“I'm going out.”
“great!”
pot-!
The rattle moved quickly, took the scarf for Vichy to wrap around his neck, and even put a hat on top of it..
Hunie the cat snatched the rattle, which was whining and struggling, with its mouth and rode it on its back..
“Here you go! It's cold outside!”
“Holholhol… That's amazing. Come on, let's go.”
Vichy begins to move only after wrapping up a scarf and wearing a fur hat..
A cat and a marble clung to her.
Sabak…
Sabak…
It snowed again today.
It was so obvious now that it was snowing that it made my mouth hurt..
“…I wish spring would come.”
“Spring? what is spring?”
“Don't you know spring??”
“uh… I feel like I know something, but I can't remember..”
“You know the meaning, but you don't remember the scenery.?”
“That's right, Bish. So I’m upset… Is spring beautiful??”
Vichy grinned and spread his hands..
[Vichy uses sprouts.]
[The sprout receives nutrients and blooms..]
[Vichy's flowers exert various powers..]
……
sssss…
A flower bloomed from the white bone.
The flowers were nothing special.
It wasn't a particularly flashy color and didn't have a particularly strong scent..
It's just an ordinary color and an ordinary scent..
But the sound it brought was not ordinary..
“…Is this spring??”
“It's just a little spring. Spring can be anything, rattle..”
“What does that mean? What Vichy says is too difficult for me to understand..”
“The simple change of seasons is also spring, but that is only part of it. Spring is for everyone.”
“To Vichy... There is spring for me too?”
“of course. A time when we overcome difficult times and finally, many things bloom. That's how I think of spring.”
“If Vichy thinks so, I think so too.!”
“You're a copycat..”
“The rattle is a copycat..”
Rattle rested his head on Vichy's neck. It must be his own expression of affection..
“Yikes, that’s cold..”
“sorry. Did you surprise me? My body… It's very cold?”
“Ding, if you lean on it without saying a word, anyone will be surprised. The same goes for other life forms. Be kind when approaching... got it?”
Rattle bowed his head to Vichy..
“I am very cold. I like you though, Bish. Can I count on you??”
Vish laughed..
No, I guess I thought I was laughing..
“Of course!”
“great!”
Meow meow…
Hunie, the cat, let out a cry as if he was upset that they were hanging out alone..
“Oh dear. Hunie was also there..”
Rattle climbed on Hunie's back and moved. The rattle is large enough for Hunie to not feel uncomfortable. Exactly, that was it..
The three walked quietly.
This is a place where snow piles up every day and the same scenery repeats itself, but the three loved the scenery..
“Vichy.”
“huh.”
“Was there spring for Vichy too??”
“…There was.”
Bish continued his answer..
“really… It was a happy day. I wonder if that day will come again.”
“When spring passes, does it never come again??”
“I don't know.”
* * *
The time between Vichy and Rattle has passed..
That too for quite a long time.
Rattle recently started learning magic from Vichy, and only learned very simple magic..
Of course, I couldn't unfold it properly..
No one expects beads to work magic, but.
crackling…
widely…
The embers in the fireplace burned out..
Meow meow…
Sitting in a crumbling rocking chair, with a hug on my lap, as if I was sleeping, as if I was drying out..
If there is a moment of the day that Vichy looks forward to the most, it is probably this day..
Recently, Vichy's energy has been decreasing day by day. Not only that, but there were times when he was so lost in his thoughts that he didn't even know if he was worried..
“…huh?”
Chii Iik…
The rattle was melting as a result of approaching the fireplace..
Vichy snapped out of his drowsy mind and approached the fireplace, shouting loudly..
“Rattle! Can not be done!”
Poseok…
The rattle she was holding was broken horribly. Is it because it melted in the heat of the fireplace?.
“Oh my, my daughter… don't leave me!”
Bish whining and whining..
Of course, I couldn't shed tears because I had white bones..
Rustle…
At that time, something small crawled out of the gap in the square fireplace..
“Bish… The rattle is not going anywhere….”
Only then did Vichy realize that all of this was a joke and became furious..
“What if I play a prank like that?!”
“I'm sorry... I didn't know you'd be angry.”
“ha….”
Vichy lowered his head as if he was tired. Rattle walked up to her side and leaned against her..
“You can look forward to it.?”
“…of course.”
“I'm sorry, Bish..”
“are you okay.”
Rattle leaned against her and asked.
“Vish hates me disappearing.?”
“To say the obvious….”
“Then I will stay by Bish's side forever.”
“…….”
Bish said, stroking the rattle..
“Forever... I've heard this a lot..”
“is it so?”
“Dangling, no relationship can stay together forever..”
“yes? really?”
“then… Have you ever lost someone precious to you??”
The rattle thought for a moment..
As expected, I couldn't remember anything..
Wouldn’t life as a rattle be the first and last?.
“no! No, maybe, but I don't remember..”
“I see….”
“There is Vichy?”
“…There is.”
“Tell me about Vichy. I'm curious about Vichy.”
“Are you curious about my story? The story of this ugly skeleton?”
“Vichy is not bad, even though she is a grandmother.….”
“Noooooooom!”
Vichy got especially angry at the word ‘grandmother’. Of course, if she was really upset she would have bullied the rattle, but she always stopped at a warning..
“I am a very old wizard..”
“How much?”
“For a very, very long time… A wizard who lived in the past.”
“There's something mysterious….”
“Holholhol… Is that so??”
“yes Please tell me more!”
She continued talking without stopping.
“I was born as a black fairy. At one time, it monopolized the cuteness of the village with its greenery..”
“…uh?”
“Why are you like that??”
“I guess I was shocked. I thought he was human….”
“I know the black fairy?”
“I don't know. however… I don't even know?”
“Hmm… Anyway, this Vichy had a heart-pounding adventure a long time ago..”
“Alone?”
“no… I had colleagues.”
Rattle immediately realized that Vichy's colleagues were the precious people she had lost..
“if….”
“Yeah, they're all dead now.”
“…Why??”
“Somehow, a lot of time has passed. As humans, it wasn't a time worth carrying..”
“…Then what about you??”
“I am… It's because of magic.”
“Magic?”
“Yes, I used forbidden magic that cost me my life..”
A spell that doesn't end well.
Why did she use such magic? And why did she come back.
“When I lived... A terrible king ruled the world. I am… It happened out of an absurd sense of heroism to protect the world from such evil..”
“…cool.”
“Holholhol… thank you. Fortunately, there were many idiots like me back then. Thanks to you, I found good colleagues.”
“…….”
“Banpi the warrior, Greek the paladin, and Song the ranger..”
Vichy back then must have been a girl like she said..
“we are… I had a happy time.”
“Wasn't it hard??”
“fighting evil?”
“yes.”
“Although I thought it was difficult and painful sometimes... No, it was fun too. It's fun to adventure with friends.”
“okay….”
“We made quite a name for ourselves. Because people who fit together that well have come together. but… I didn't have enough strength.”
Vichy looked at the fireplace..
“The king's general... I lost to Dalmon.”
“To the king….”
“I've never seen it before. Dalmon is someone who has reached the highest level. The king was stronger than that guy... He probably died as soon as he encountered him..”
“…Does the story end like that??”
There was something that wasn't revealed yet.
“No, we lost, but at least Dalmon... I knocked it down.”
“Could it be that Vichy became that way?….”
“that's right. They sealed me with him..”
“…….”
I didn't understand the rattle..
The magic of Vichy is the magic of spring.
It was far from a magic that sealed oneself with an evil entity at the cost of one's life..
“The magic of Vichy... It's beautiful. but….”
“…Beautiful magic is just nice to look at. Strong magic is just strong.”
“Is there even beautiful and strong magic??”
“A wizard who uses such magic... Probably the strongest.”
“Vichy is not the strongest..”
“…that's right.”
“But I love the magic of Vichy.”
“thank you.”
Bish said bitterly..
“at last… I used ancient magic to seal him... I just woke up. Nothing but bones left... in an ugly way.”
“It's not ugly.”
“…….”
“It's a symbol of Vichy's dedication. All of Vichy's magic is beautiful..”
At that moment, the rattle had a mouth..
The meaning of the rattle is now conveyed as a perfect sound, not as a ringing sound..
“Because Vichy’s heart is good. Even though dirt spilled from his fingertips, he clearly wanted a good world..”
“you… really….”
Vichy hugged the rattle..
“Thanks for saying that..”
* * *
Time flies again for Vichy and Rattle. No, now we have been together for two years..
Hunie's energy was greatly damaged..
As Vichy's familiar, as much as she was shaken, so was Hunie..
Rattle was worried about Vichy..
Why does it hurt?.
Why am I getting weaker?.
Vichy just doesn't answer..
“Not yet… It's just a doubt. I'll tell you when I'm sure.”
Since Vichy didn't tell him, Rattle had to find the answer on his own..
Rattle went out every time Vichy fell asleep..
Hunie, the guard, was also not in good health, so there was no one to stop the rattle..
Rattle blamed his own weakness for not being of any help to Vichy..
There may be helpful herbs or magic stones nearby. The frozen land is overflowing with magic..
It was probably due to a great event that occurred in this area at the end of the previous era that Vichy spoke of..
So, just like Vichy found the rattle, there must be herbs or magic stones..
As the day goes by and it turns into a month.
“doesn't exist….”
Rattle gave up the search..
By the time I got home, I was so depressed that I didn't want to do anything..
At that time, there was a commotion in the snowy field near the shack where the rattle was heading..
Quaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa-!
“…uh? Uh oh….”
Only one person came to mind..
“Vichy!”
When Rattle arrived at the snowy field, Vish was confronting someone..
He was very large and had horns on his forehead..
“Dalmon… The reason I was resurrected... After all, it was you.”
“black fairy….”
“2I've been looking for you for years. you….”
“The opportunity has come. for the first time… When the demon sleeping in this land woke up, I too was able to break the bond with you..”
Rattle noticed that the evil called Dalmon, whom he had heard about once, had awakened..
‘how… how should….’
At that time, Vichy, who had spent two years with Rattle, noticed his approach..
“…I could finish you off with my secret pot. It's just the same result as before.”
Something that passes through the rattle's mind.
‘only! It's a jar!’
A jar that never once told me what was in it. The rattle decided that this was the way to deal with Dalmon and quickly returned to the shack..
I profit…
“There it is!”
A rattle snatches the string that ties the three jars together..
“…how do i move it?”
At that time, someone shouted on the stairs..
Miyaaaaaaaaaaa…
It's a holiday.
Hunie was rattling the rattle..
“ah!”
Rattle used the magic he learned from Vichy..
[Use relative giants.]
[Enlarges allies larger than yourself.]
[Abilities remain the same.]
……
Hunie growing suddenly.
snatch the string that tied the jar.
Rattle shouted on Hunie's back..
“run! Hunie!”
Miyaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa!
papad-!
Hunie running through the snow like a snow leopard.
Kwaaaaang-!
Quaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa!
The battle in the snowy field was in full swing..
rattle shouted.
“Vichy! here!”
“only… Thank you, daughter.!”
grip support-!
In an instant, the bushes grew thicker and a barrier unfolded. I might not be able to last long against Dalmon, but I had plenty of time to get things done..
“what should i do now….”
The skeleton gives an empty gaze..
Her hair was scattered and her energy was greatly impaired..
However, an even greater fear seemed to remain within her..
something, it is.
“I'm scared, daughter... It would have been better if I had been a grandmother.”
“Vichy….”
“My not-so-beautiful side... It's a shame. but… They would understand.”
Huuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuu…
When Vichy placed his hand on the jar, the jar floated..
“sorry everyone.”
[Vishga Season: Uses the Wish of the Dead.]
[Only the dead can use it.]
[The dead are temporarily brought back to reality through corpses or bone powder..]
……
Pussssss…
Bone dust rose from the jar and created someone..
Skin and eyes, like making pottery, we have to make a human shape..
[Bringing the skilled warrior Banpi to reality.]
[Bringing the pious paladin Greek to life.]
[Bringing Ranger Song to life.]
……
They found their breath and opened their eyes..
“This….”
“resurrection… is it?”
“ha ha ha! what? That thing outside... It's Dalmon.?”
“…….”
Vichy lowered his head in shame..
A situation in which he summons back his pale-bones self and those who have become dead and forces them to make sacrifices..
Jeopuk…
Banpi grabbed Vish's shoulder..
“No way, you….”
“jeon… I am….”
Now I know why Vichy hesitated. She didn't want to be seen because she became a terrible person to her colleagues who had her shining moments..
“…Lift your head up, Bish.”
“but….”
“hurry.”
Vichy reveals his ugly white bones.
However, the expression on the face of no one in the group changed. No, I actually laughed.
“It's still the same, Bish.”
“You still cherish that time.”
“Vichy! You woke up first! Thanks for visiting again!”
The tall handsome warrior, Banpi said..
“still… It's a girl.”
“…I'm embarrassed.”
“They're trying to stop Dalmon.?”
“sorry… in my own strength….”
“I'll give you my strength. Just like back then.”
The moment the rattle lands on Vichy's shoulder….
Quaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa-!
Dalmon breaks the barrier and rushes in.
Go go go go go go go go go go go go go go go go go go go go go go-!
Banpi blocked that fist with his sword..
“…Wow, you did something fun..”
“Dalmon… This time too….”
A world created by an immortal who overturned the throne.
A world where all kinds of demons and ghosts of the past awaken..
And when Ma wakes up….
“We are your adversaries..”
The enemy also wakes up.
