Eleanor couldn’t help but laugh while looking at Justitia’s lively self-introduction. How could that be?

If she was indeed Decentra’s older sister, Eleanor could be said to be her enemy.

Wasn’t she the one who didn’t notice Decentra’s abnormality and also finished her off herself?

How the hell could she even smile?

“Now I see that it was Princess Eleanor. My hair was so short that I didn’t recognize it for a moment. What is it? Ha ha ha!”

“I-I… … .”

Eleanor felt guilty.

She was much more fragile than others thought. He was merely hiding his weakness through acts of servanthood.

“I, ah, no, because of me called Decent… … .”

“it’s okay.”

Justitia was able to notice many things in Eleanor’s tearful expression.

“If you think about it like that, even though I have power in the first place, I was in the demon realm when my family was dying?”

“But I… … .”

“Shall we solve this first?”

Justitia stroked the head of Eleanor, who was speechless, and then grabbed her sword.

There was still an enemy in front of me. The one who got rid of ＜Chrysos＞ as well.

“Hmm. Decentra, Decentra… … . I think I’ve heard… … .”

Delade, who borrowed Scar’s body, was contemplating while touching his chin while the two were talking.

It’s definitely a name you’ve heard. It may not have been very important, but it was something I kept in the back of my head.

“aha! So, was it the one that the blue girl over there disposed of?”

Scar shouted as if he remembered. Information that was insignificant to him, but different to the two of them.

Scar could tell from the atmosphere. That’s why it was used.

Anyway, Eleanor was so exhausted that she couldn’t even refute. Then, the only annoying thing was Justitia, who had just appeared before her eyes.

It’s not a problem to keep the two apart.

“You don’t seem to know much… … . It is none other than the woman you are protecting that brought an end to that woman called Decentra.”

Scar said that with a sad expression on his face.

Eleanor lowered her head even more at Scar’s words.

At that time, Decentra was swallowed up by an ‘external being’ and eventually became a monster. Eleanor should have known that too.

However, it was undeniable that her soul was still inside the monster.

Yes, whether or not she became a monster, it was Eleanor who ended it.

“okay… … .”

Justitia calmly nodded at those words.

However, there was an indescribable sadness in that calmness.

Eleanor lowered her head even more at the sight of Justitia.

Scar gently raised the corner of her mouth at Justitia’s appearance.

This moment of mixed feelings.

Snap!

“What… … ?”

“It should have been like this from the start.”

Justitia blew off Scar’s arm without hesitation.

Scar took a big step back, not even feeling embarrassed.

It was also kept in mind that the epilepsy would fail. It was also hypothesized that it could rather anger the opponent.

However, the opponent’s reaction was too fast. There was not even the slightest worry.

Before she could organize the information that came into her head, she acted.

Anyway, that was too fast. She clearly saw Eleanor’s hesitation to speak, and heard the truth from Scar’s mouth.

It is a law that a person has to think a little bit between them.

However, rather than worrying about the exact story of the incident, he took action.

“I… … . Did it look like you were lying?”

“Nope.”

As if cutting off her arm wasn’t enough, Scar said quietly to Justitia, who charged at her.

Did he even figure out that there was a hidden truth behind Scar’s words?

Or did he know the whole story in advance?

But Justitia’s answer was different.

“You may be right.”

“Then why… … !”

Scar answered, but with one hand he managed to cut off Justitia’s sword as he swung.

Playback is slow. No, it didn’t regenerate itself as if it was temporarily blocked. I never imagined there would be another power like this.

The only difference is that if you take the time, you will be able to respond.

but… … .

“Kuk!”

It is impossible here.

In that brief moment, Scar was covered with wounds from Justitia’s sword.

If it was in its original state, it would have been able to fight on an equal footing, but it seemed impossible for Scar’s body to handle a huge greatsword.

operation failed.

It was an operation that was not expected greatly from the beginning, but the result was too futile.

“Why?”

Delade felt disconnected from Scar’s body and asked the question again. I wanted to hear the reason for that hesitant action.

“If I wanted revenge, I might have thought about it a little bit.”

Justitia declared, blowing off Scar’s other arm.

“But I am a warrior!”

She’s on the side of the underdog.

It’s obvious that you don’t have to think about who is suffering the most right now.

Isn’t there a person who hangs his head like a prisoner waiting for the death penalty because he is stained with a sense of guilt that he doesn’t have to bear alone?

“Such nonsense… … .”

“Yes.”

Justitia said as she thrust her sword into Scar’s body.

“I know I’m weird. Most people in the world are living for themselves. Whether it will be for revenge or for proof of life will be different.”

“Then why… … ?”

Delade asked through Scar’s blurred vision.

“If most people are like that, isn’t it possible for at least one person to prioritize others? I decided to live like that.”

[Hero] Justitia swore that way when she accepted her fate.

If people live for themselves, at least one, like her, will raise her sword for their happiness.

To lift the burden together for those who are having a hard time.

“What an uncomfortable life… … .”

Scar muttered that while looking at Justitia’s oath.

“Maybe.”

* * *

During the fight between Scar and Eleanor, a hero suddenly invaded.

And the hero defeated the Cistusized Scar.

This is the whole story of the incident that Lucia heard.

But on top of that, I know a few more facts.

“The more I think about it, the more I will turn around… … .”

The point is that Scar is probably a kind of incarnation whose mind has been eroded by ‘external beings’.

Same with Gerard… … No, since he became a puppet whose consciousness was completely possessed, there is no doubt that he would have been a more threatening enemy than that.

With [Myeongwang] joining in, he must have become quite a monster.

I heard that the hero accidentally blew off one of his arms… … . I don’t know how things would have turned out if it hadn’t been for that surprise attack.

Before I knew it, Eleanor almost went straight to the dead ending.

chill down the spine

Without this change, Eleanor would die with a 100% chance.

The only one who could help her was the hero at that point.

There was no doubt that all the talented people in ＜Tenebris＞ were supporting Discre.

obviously fortunate. If you think about my usual activities, it was a situation that could be called heavenly luck… … .

“… … Why did the hero come here?”

I don’t quite understand her behavior. why the hell

Why did she come to the Vatican?

“It seems that he was cursed in the battle of the Demon Castle.”

“What is that… … .”

Is this twisted like this again?

In the original work, Eleanor and the hero had nothing to do with each other.

Because the story of the event where the hero appeared was a separate side story without the main character intervening.

I couldn’t even meet you in the first place.

At the time of Chapter 3, Eleanor was in ＜Schientia＞ and at the time of Chapter 4, she was heading for ＜Chrysos＞.

But this time the flow of time has changed significantly. Eleanor had no choice but to come to the Vatican before going to Chrysos.

The flow keeps changing. But to be sure, that wasn’t enough to affect the hero’s actions.

Then there is only one answer.

Content that was unknown in ＜Broken Sky＞, which was progressed from the point of view of the main character, Eleanor.

The point is that [Golden Warrior] Justitia’s original actions would have been directed to the Vatican at this point.

Eleanor’s path has changed, but the warrior’s path has not.

That’s how the two people who never met got entangled.

“Head… … it hurts… … .”

“Welcome to the Headache League, Prince Oz. This is the third.”

“Who is the other?”

“white poplar.”

“Right… … .”

It hasn’t been long since I made up my mind after meeting Oz, but I think I’m already losing my confidence.

“Then first… … .”

“Are you going to move right away?”

Lucia shakes her head as she looks up at me with wide eyes.

There are still important things left.

“… … I want to fill my stomach first.”

“Ah, that would be it too… … .”

I couldn’t even take a sip of water until I opened my eyes.

If I have a conscience, shouldn’t someone take care of me?

* * *

immediately after leaving the hospital room.

I could see the worst of the situation.

“therefore… … . Are you saying we can’t give you food because the meal period has passed?”

“Yes, sorry. Heir to the King of Darkness. It’s a hot day, so if you leave the food there, it might get spoiled again, which could be a problem… … .”

In short, was it that he was considerate of kids like me who couldn’t be on time and got food poisoning?

Is this caring?

“Put it in the fridge… … No, it’s done. There is nothing you can do without it.”

I don’t know if there is a magic tool that acts as a refrigerator in the Vatican, but there is a high probability that there was no food left in the first place.

There must still be victims from this attack everywhere.

There is no way to leave food in such a situation. Basically, it would have always been lacking.

Even if there is special treatment for me, I don’t think it’s enough to leave food after mealtime. Do you know when I’ll wake up?

“What are you going to do? Prince of Oz. Would you like to find a restaurant open outside?”

“Is there really any restaurant that is still open under the same circumstances?”

“The chances are slim, but there might be one or two.”

“Hmm… … .”

Finding a restaurant that might be open versus just waiting for the next meal.

There is no need to worry about this.

I might be able to find a restaurant just because I went out in the first place, and besides, in these chaotic times, there might be assassins out there looking for me.

Wouldn’t it be faster for me to collapse from exhaustion in the meantime rather than responding to each one and finding a restaurant?

“… … Shall we meet the Pope first?”

“I sometimes worry that you might not be a serious workaholic.”

“It’s a big deal. You worry about me.”

“Who said they care about you? Are you saying that you are worried about my future being swayed by someone like you?”

“You must meet a boss like me later.”

“… … We are already meeting.”

That’s it too.

Come to think of it, I don’t remember seeing that son of a bitch taking a break.

It is clear that he is working like crazy when he sees that he is always busy running around, integrating and delivering information to his teaching duties.

Lucia’s wide eyes began to feel like an abyss.

I haven’t averted my eyes from this bastard since I activated [Contemplation], but I want to avoid it today.

“Move for now.”

He slowly averted his eyes and moved to his seat.

From the hospital room to the dining room and eventually to the office where the pope is staying.

Gradually running stamina

Even though I’ve been hungry since before, I can’t bear to show it because people are staring at me.

“Do you have anything to eat, even something simple?”

“… … Is that enough?”

The wide-eyed Lucia frowned and said.

Was I doing well in aristocratic acting? If this is the response, it is worthwhile to manage the image so far.

“Well, since you usually eat quite a lot… … .”

“Because it moves that much.”

I am really on the move. It starts with practice, collects information, and leads the way.

Moreover, did he become Oz and become wealthy? You can have the luxury of ordering two servings of steak and eating it.

“Well, all I have is military food. No, it’s not tasty, but it’s nutritious, so would it be better for Prince Oz now?”

“I’ve explained it, so just give it to me.”

“Well… … ?”

Lucia smiles softly.

This atmosphere, as if the initiative is being taken away, is not good.

“How much can Prince Oz pay to get scarce food in a wartime situation like this?”

“… … this year?”

A curse that comes out of nowhere.

But Lucia shows me an energy bar through her pocket as if she doesn’t care.

Are you taking medicine?

But I can’t help it.

“… … How much do you want?”

“Not everything in the world is traded through money. you know?”

Information. This bastard is asking you to teach him the details of his conversation with Lucia Domine.

Who the hell is calling someone a workaholic… … ?

“Yes, Dill.”

“Good idea, King Oz… … .”

Took.

The moment the negotiations are about to be concluded.

When Lucia took out an energy bar from her pocket and was about to hand it to me, I could see it came with it.

When I lifted it off the floor, it was something familiar.

Yes, these are the cat-shaped cookies that go up to the end of the parfait that I got caught while embezzling from my part-time job.

“… … No, did you still keep this?”

Didn’t I tell you not to keep food for a long time because it goes bad?

“… … no.”

“I don’t think it is.”

Isn’t it because you vacuum-packed it so carefully?

Rather, did this world have such technology?

And did you commit such a cute thing using that kind of technology?

It’s really great in many ways.

“This, this is not something I received from the Prince of Oz that day… … . ugh… … .”

Lucia, who had been blushing just a moment ago, turned bright red in an instant and lowered her head.

It’s good to see that the energy is back.

well, by the way… … .

“Then Lucia? How much are you willing to pay to stop my light mouthing under these circumstances?”

“… … .”

Lucia silently held out 5 energy bars to me.

“Yeah, well thought out.”

This is the real deal.
