Ending Maker Episode 467
SS #40 Time to back
It was a night like always.
Cordelia, who had been passionately in love with Uther until dawn, fell into a deep sleep, half-asleep and breathing heavily.
Even in a half-asleep state, Yuder’s embrace was firm, warm, and cozy at the same time.
‘Abs.’
Rock solid abs.
Crown Princess Daphne – no, now the queen – invited her to the royal hot springs, and she wanted to touch Yuder’s abs so badly but couldn’t bring herself to do so.
I couldn’t figure out why something from over ten years ago suddenly came to mind.
To begin with, my head was blank and I couldn’t think properly.
No, maybe what you’re doing now isn’t a thought, but just part of a dream.
dream.
Good dreams.
Any dream is not bad if it’s with Yuder…
My thoughts stopped.
In the pitch-black vision, there was now absolutely nothing to see.
And then one moment.
“Miss Cordelia, Miss.”
He heard a voice calling him from afar.
It was a very familiar voice.
A woman’s voice that is gentle and gentle, and seems to be deliberately lowered.
“Miss, please get up now.”
“Dali… … Ah?”
As I opened my eyes halfway, letting out a blank voice, a familiar silhouette came into view beyond my blurry vision.
“Yes, it’s your dahlia. Now get up.”
dahlia.
Dahlia Ale.
I feel sorry for Adelia, but she is a knight who is more like a real sister to me than my own sister.
Captain of the Royal Guard of the Holy Nation of Eudellia.
Guardian angel.
Cordelia, who had barely regained consciousness with the information gradually coming to her mind, opened her eyes completely and looked straight ahead.
I saw a ceiling that was familiar yet unfamiliar.
It was a ceiling that I had clearly seen for a long time, but one that I hadn’t seen much of in the past ten years.
‘My… … room?’
The room of Count Chase, not the Eudellia Holy Nation.
“miss?”
Cordelia rolled her eyes, following the voice as she heard it again.
This time, there stood a dahlia that was familiar yet unfamiliar.
“Did you get a haircut?”
Because her long hair, which used to reach down to her waist, was now cut short, barely reaching her ears, and did not even reach her shoulders.
“Head?”
“Oh, hair. Maia liked it… … Oh, did you fight with Maia?”
When Cordelia asked in surprise, Dahlia narrowed her brows and quickly placed her palm on Cordelia’s forehead.
It’s like taking a fever.
‘It’s warm.’
His hands were calloused and hard, as befitting a knight, but they were warm and affectionate like Yuder’s.
But Cordelia had no time to leisurely enjoy the touch she hadn’t felt in a long time.
It was because of Dahlia’s words that were heard right after.
“I don’t have a fever.”
“dahlia?”
“Miss, are you sick or not? Please be honest with me.”
“Are you not sick? I think you might be a bit sore because of the urine.”
As he spoke with a small smile as if joking, Dahlia’s eyebrows furrowed even further.
“Miss, did you have a dream?”
“dream?”
“That makes sense, because it’s because of Prince Yuder… … Oh, by the way, Prince Yuder’s personal maid’s name was Maia, right?”
It was clearly Dahlia, but it was strange to speak of it.
Because I felt a sense of distance when I mentioned Yuder and Maia.
“It seems like you had a dream about Prince Yu De.”
“dream?”
“Yes, it was a dream. Now it’s time to wake up from this dream.”
Dahlia smiled brightly and lifted Cordelia’s upper body up.
It was something they could do because they were practically like real sisters.
And so it happened, Cordelia thought.
‘I’m not an angel.’
The dahlia in front of my eyes was a human.
A pure human who does not feel any trace of celestial energy.
What happened?
Could it be that I’m dreaming right now?
‘I want it too.’
It wasn’t an archangel.
After realizing it, I started to feel uncomfortable again.
Because it was the body of a very fragile girl, unlike the body of a powerful archangel.
The magic power was also weak.
A truly small horsepower, incomparably small compared to the main body.
It felt like I was inside an avatar that was deliberately made weak.
What happened?
What happened?
“Miss, do you remember that we decided to go visit Prince Yu De in the hospital this afternoon?”
Dahlia, who had woken Cordelia up, said as she moved a small, pretty cart containing various toiletries, starting with water for washing, to the bedside.
Although she was a knight, her hand movements were very familiar, like those of a maid.
“Are you going to visit the sick?”
“Yes, since you’re my fiancé. I should visit you sometimes.”
What do you mean, Yuder is sick?
Our Yuder is so strong that even if you wanted to hurt him, there was no way to hurt him.
But instead of asking what he meant, Cordelia just blinked.
And Cordelia’s brain, which even Uther acknowledged was superior to Uther’s in terms of performance itself, processed multiple thoughts at the same time in an instant.
These are the words Dahlia has been saying so far.
Dahlia’s short bob.
Cordelia’s own condition.
The familiar yet unfamiliar room of Count Chase.
If it’s not a dream, or even if it is a dream, there is only one situation that can be assumed.
‘Back to the past…?’
The most likely scenario, unless it’s a really elaborate prank.
Of course, Uther was the one who would do such a prank just to surprise Cordelia, but Cordelia didn’t think so.
Although Uther did play mischievous pranks sometimes, he never played these kinds of pranks.
‘I’m back in the past. Regression. I’m back in the past with my memories.’
A little bit of cold sweat ran down my face.
‘Regression’ was an opportunity when there was a lot of regret.
For Cordelia, who had already achieved a perfect happy ending, the return was not an opportunity but a calamity.
“Miss? Are you… okay?”
Is it because my feelings are revealed in my facial expression?
In response to Dahlia’s worried question, Cordelia forced a smile and said that it was okay.
If this is really a regression situation.
If we return to the starting point.
What should Cordelia herself do?
At that moment, Yuder’s voice came to mind.
Alexei’s words.
His teaching was to always think about the winning conditions.
‘Help me, Alexei.’
Cordelia muttered quietly to herself and washed her face as if hiding it from Dahlia.
And I thought.
‘I have to meet Yuder.’
Because if the two of you are together, you can overcome any crisis.
And maybe Uther had regressed as well.
‘Yeah, it’s Yuder’s job to think.’
Right place, right time. Right place.
Just the thought of meeting Uther, just the fact that Uther was there, made Cordelia feel a little better, so she took a deep breath and continued washing her face.
* * *
‘This is both familiar and unfamiliar.’
The Bayer Counts’ House is more like a wartime fortress than a nobleman’s mansion.
As Baylun grew from a northern frontier to a metropolis that could be called the heart of the north, the Counts of Bayer also went through changes.
Cordelia smiled awkwardly and walked forward, imagining the main gate with a moat and a wall that was much higher than it looked.
And inside the mansion.
Cordelia, sitting in the reception room with Dahlia, gently pressed her chest as if to soothe her pounding heart and quivered her lips.
‘Has Yuder also regressed?’
‘What if it doesn’t regress?’
‘Should I tell you this and that?’
If the knowledge of Utherwiki and the future knowledge that Cordelia knows were combined, wouldn’t it be truly invincible?
Maybe it would be possible to have something like a super ultra perfect ending that goes beyond a perfect happy ending.
Cordelia fidgeted with her fingers nervously as she thought of a name that would make Yuder say, “As expected, there’s a problem with your naming sense.”
For several minutes, he pulled his hair out of habit, not even noticing that Dahlia, who was standing behind him, was looking at him with a strange look.
There was a knock on the door.
“Your Majesty has arrived.”
It was Maya’s voice.
Cordelia swallowed hard and nodded, indicating that it was okay for Dahlia to open the door.
And after a while.
Uther appeared beyond the open door.
* * *
Uder.
Our Yuder.
Our Yuder, the owner of black hair, green eyes, and great abs.
The door opened and Uder appeared.
He bowed with a respectful gesture and then raised his head.
This time, it was a familiar yet unfamiliar face.
A pale face with no color and deep shadows under the eyes.
But perhaps because he was so handsome, he was more like a glass doll that looked like it could break at any moment rather than being ugly.
The moment their eyes met, Cordelia felt a sensation run down her spine.
Cordelia knew what this electric feeling meant, something she had felt a dozen years ago.
and-
“Why are you here?!”
Uther shouted reflexively, and Cordelia sensed it.
It was only Cordelia herself who regressed.
Uder was Outboxer 009, who had only recently regained his memories of his previous life.
So now what Cordelia herself has to do is-
“Why are you here?!”
Although he shouted a little late and his voices didn’t overlap completely, he tried his best to act shocked, and thanks to the dark-hearted person, his acting skills had improved by leaps and bounds, so he was able to surprise Dahlia, Maia, and Uther just like that day ten years ago.
‘This way, Yuder will get suspicious.’
I wonder if Cordelia herself is the Yellow Storm.
‘For now, let’s just let things flow as they should.’
The task at hand was to make an appointment with Juder at a corner of Count Bayer’s mansion tonight.
Cordelia, determined, clenched her fists even as she tried hard to act surprised.
* * *
It started off very strangely, but anyway, Uther and Cordelia sat across from each other and each took a sip of the tea that Maia offered with a worried look on her face.
And Cordelia realized several things she hadn’t known a dozen years ago when she had been equally surprised.
‘You’re cute, our Yuder.’
Our Yuder has grown up so quickly and has become so sturdy, but there was a time when he was so cute.
A sickly pretty boy, slightly smaller than Cordelia herself.
Perhaps because he was so surprised, he still couldn’t control his expression, which was very cute and lovable.
‘You don’t have abs now, do you? You have a flabby stomach?’
I want to touch it.
Cordelia laughed as she thought that if Maia had heard that, she would have immediately summoned the knights of the family. Then she put down the tea cup she had been holding up to cover her mouth and thought.
‘Now it’s time for Yuder to start checking things out.’
A truly ignorant yet effective way for Cordelia to determine if she really is the Yellow Storm.
‘Look at that thought.’
Now that I look at it, I see that I’m also sweating a little bit.
Hesitating.
I know it’s the most effective way, but I feel embarrassed and ashamed when I say that.
‘Yeah, this older sister was a bit thoughtful.’
Cordelia, who only smiled inwardly, spoke in passing with a composed expression.
“aha.”
“No, no.”
Uther answered with a flinch.
So Cordelia nodded with a serious face.
It’s like spies identifying each other with a code.
‘And then… … .’
Normally, it would have been Uther who spoke the code, but Cordelia decided to try something else.
‘Hey, Yuder.’
‘Wait, you called me?’
‘Oh, you called me.’
‘What is that? A whisper? No, wait. Is that a look in my eyes?’
‘Yeah, our eyes met.’
A conversation between eyes, not a message magic or a phone call.
One of the proofs that Cordelia and Uther are a destined couple who have been together for several lifetimes.
‘Yellow… … storm?’
‘Yeah, that’s right. It’s nice to hear that after such a long time.’
‘Long time no see?’
‘No, just. Anyway, Yuder. Since Maia and Dahlia are here, it’s hard to talk in detail. Let’s meet separately later.’
‘… … Okay. Let’s meet at the north corner of my garden at midnight.’
‘Okay, see you later.’
This time again, it’s my job to climb over the wall.
Cordelia smiled faintly, but she stood up after exchanging some formal conversation with Uther.
And that night.
The garden of the Bayer Counts’ mansion.
“Yellow Storm.”
“Outboxer 009.”
Cordelia responded to the small call and took off the hood she had been pulling down on her head.
Yuder, who had been hiding in a corner of the bushes, was quietly revealing himself.
“Is it really… a yellow storm?”
“Oh, really? Are you Abok?”
The guy next door.
Our house’s swindler, Yuder.
Uder flinched at the affectionate call, but only for a moment.
He narrowed his eyes and approached Cordelia, speaking.
“What happened? First of all, I remembered something from two days ago… … Yes, I awakened to my memories of my past life.”
“so do i.”
I was going to tell you right away that I’ve returned, but I decided to put it off for now.
This could have caused even more confusion in an already chaotic situation.
and-
‘It’s kind of fun, isn’t it?’
What does Yuder look like, not knowing what to do?
‘Should I surprise you a little more?’
Cordelia, who only smiled mischievously on the inside, went with the flow for the time being.
That is, after talking to Uther about whether they were once men or women, and talking about reincarnation rather than possession, they talked about how they should work to prevent the destruction of the Pleiades.
And right after that.
“Then, I guess we need to solve the problem of the nine-syllable syllable first.”
“Huh? Oh, right.”
When Uther nodded in surprise, Cordelia made a deliberately thoughtful expression and then crossed her arms and said.
“If we wait for our father to get the Sunflower as in the original story, it will be too late. We will have to waste almost half a year. So it would be better to bring the time forward. Then what should we do? We need yang energy that is comparable to the Sunflower. To melt the yin energy of the Nine Yin Vessels. And if there is such a means… … Yes, there is one not far away. You know about it, right?”
After speaking with a confident expression and asking a question as if testing him, Yuder flinched again and nodded.
“One thing, something just occurred to me.”
“Yeah, me too. Sun Necklace. If you have Sun Necklace, you can fix your syllables. Of course, you and I are still beginners, so we can’t get Sun Necklace in a traditional way. Raizegang, who drops Sun Necklace, is a Demon Prince. With our current level, he’s an opponent we can’t defeat even if we die and wake up. But… … This isn’t a game, this is reality. If we use a shortcut, we can get Sun Necklace from Raizegang.”
Cordelia paused for a moment to catch her breath, then placed her hands on both of her waists and spoke.
“There is one solution that came to mind. It is a method that we can do now. What do you think?”
He spoke with a confident expression and then asked in a testing manner.
Then, Yuder flinched again, narrowed his eyebrows, and opened his mouth.
“Bella… … .”
“Yes, it’s Bellastine’s magic circle. Using it, we can temporarily summon Raizegang from his sealed state. Then we just need to take the Sun Necklace from Raizegang, who can’t move. And we’ll level up a bit as a bonus. What do you think, Yuder? Does it seem like a feasible plan?”
Uther couldn’t answer Cordelia’s question right away.
I just blinked with a bewildered face.
‘Yeah, I wanted to try something like this.’
A situation where our smart one, Yuder, can show off to his heart’s content!
Look at that surprised face.
Cordelia, who was in a great mood, started to dance her shoulders as usual, and Uther, who was blankly watching her, narrowed his eyebrows as if he saw something strange and said.
“you…….”
“Yeah, me.”
“Yellow Storm… … Is that right?”
It was a rude question that seemed to reveal with her whole body that the Nobok I know isn’t this smart, but Cordelia just laughed and said with her chest puffed out.
“Oh, that’s right. The perennial second place yellow storm.”
But it’s okay now.
Because I’m always number one to you, Yuder.
“Um… … Yeah. That’s right. Anyway, Nobok is just as you said. I think the Sun Necklace is the best we can find right now. The problem is how to get to the seal of the Raize River… … .”
After saying that, Uder trailed off and glanced at Cordelia.
It was as if Cordelia was waiting for the right answer this time too.
But this time, instead of being excited and saying the right answer, Cordelia kept her lips tightly shut and waited for Uther to speak.
Although he didn’t admit it at first, it later became a truly cherished memory, as it was the first time that Uder asked Cordelia out on a date.
So Cordelia blinked and looked at Uther with a face that said she didn’t know, and Uther bit his lips slightly and turned his head slightly as if avoiding Cordelia’s eyes and spoke.
“What if we go on that… date?”
“Huh? What do you want to go to?”
“……date.”
Uther and Cordelia.
Outboxer 009 and Yellow Storm.
Cordelia wanted to smile broadly at Uther’s shy(?) date request, but she held back and answered excitedly.
“Yeah, well. That’s the only way.”
I guess there’s nothing I can do.
I’ll take it, ask me out on a date.
“Then, Yuder, send a letter to my house asking me out on a date. Okay?”
“Uh… … yeah.”
“Yeah, look how hot it’s gotten from the cold wind. I’ll give you a heel kick. Go inside and get some rest. Okay?”
Cordelia, who spoke affectionately, placed a heel on Uther’s forehead with an affectionate hand, and Uther, who was embarrassed and confused, blushed without realizing it.
“Then see you on your date.”
Cordelia waved her hand and flew over the wall with her Fly magic, and Uther blinked with a dazed look on his face like he was possessed by a ghost before placing his hand on his forehead where Cordelia had touched it.
‘Look at your face turning red.’
Our Yuder is so cute.
Cordelia pretended to climb over the wall and hung on to steal a glance at Uther’s face. She laughed to herself again and got down without making a sound.
And two days later in the morning.
The date between Cordelia, whose affection level is already at its peak, and Uther, who is in a state of confusion, has begun.
