313. Reminder (3)
Amkena.
Siris muttered the unfamiliar name in his mouth.
It wasn’t the first time I heard the name.
Because I had investigated the waiting room where the Master lived.
According to the investigation, Amkena was a weak master who only depended on Loki.
‘I’ll investigate further.’
Siris knew the basic outline of Taoni, but she hadn’t grasped the myth of the four ancient servants and the emperor intertwined with them. If she had studied Tao Nier carefully, he might have been able to stop the master’s remorse.
but the past.
Sirius shook his head and opened his mouth.
“I heard that the master has been suspended. Isn’t the connection server already closed?”
<About lifting the suspension, it’s possible with my authority. It is not difficult to connect Amkena. Because there is a spare amount of gems left.>
Siris’ eyes narrowed.
How the Masters treated the heroes.
words that are thrown away. toys to play with. They were only interested in having fun.
With a few exceptions, such as Loki, ordinary masters did not treat their heroes as living beings.
‘Still, I can’t refuse.’
Your former hero, Han, needs your help.
There was a good chance that Amkena wouldn’t believe me, but it was better than not even trying.
“I will try to contact the master.”
<Okay. We provide a link as soon as the call ends.>
“Thank you.”
<Say something. I have been blessed too.>
Siris took a deep breath.
From now on, that was the main point.
“Tell me how to save the Master.”
<As I said beforehand, this is just a hypothesis. If you fail, you could end up in the same situation as Master Loki.>
“I’m prepared for that.”
<Then first… … .>
Sissel started talking.
Siris remembered the lengthy explanation without missing a single word.
As she said, completely unproven methods. I’m guessing you’re just saying whatever comes to mind. In a way, it was close to delusion with little reality.
<This is why… … I said it was impossible.>
“…”
<Nippleheim has gone through countless S-class difficulty missions, but can you clear this condition as well?>
Siris closed her eyes.
The probability of success is in decimal units.
but.
“I will definitely repay this favor.”
<Yes. Anytime you need my help.>
Beep.
Communication was lost.
‘It’s not about whether you can do it.’
It is a must.
Siris opened her eyes.
[Siris, the conversation just now… … .]
“What time is it?”
[Uh, 2:35 in the morning.]
“Gather the 1st party members together.”
Nissel looked at her with a surprised expression.
And he nodded his head recklessly.
[okay! I’ll call you right away!]
Pyolong.
Nisel disappeared with the star dust.
‘this… … .’
Our last mission in Niflheim.
There was power in her emerald green eyes.
Siris wore a red badge, symbolizing her status, on her chest, and then wrapped herself in a black cloak. She and she wore a lebathein around her waist.
‘let’s go.’
By now, the other four people should have been given a gathering order.
The meeting point is the 13th floor of Niflheim, the Garden of Fog.
It was the place where Yurnet met Loki.
* * *
“……ha.”
A breath of fresh air filled Siris’ lungs.
She came into a clearing in the middle of the garden along a dirt road. A teapot and cups were placed on a white wooden table as if Yurnet and Nisled had a tea time.
‘master.’
Siris decided to admit it.
own mistakes.
‘The reason Master kept me by his side… … .’
As Lydigion said, this wasn’t the first time Siris made a mistake.
Even when first summoned, and after that, and even on important missions, Siris had made several fatal misses. But the important thing is… … .
‘What do you do after that.’
Mistakes made once are not repeated.
Even in situations that seem impossible, we find a way.
never give up
This is the way of Siris Argentheim.
It was the reason she was recognized by the fire spirit that ruled Niflheim in the distant past.
Sareuk.
The wind blew and shook the leaves.
Siris stood still in the middle of the clearing.
“I have something to say to everyone.”
A garden with no people.
Siris opened her mouth.
“First of all, I’m sorry to you guys. I made a mistake due to my poor judgment. Ridigion’s advice was right. It was my mistake to try to expel the Master like that.”
no answer comes back
Still, Siris continued.
“Our hometown is back, and even if we can keep the waiting room forward, I don’t think it’s meaningless if the Master isn’t here.”
Bassrock.
The petals on the right side of the flower bed swayed wildly.
“Please give me one more chance.”
Sirius’s low voice rang out.
I thought the flower bed would be messed up afterwards.
“I wondered why he woke up out of nowhere, so it was like this!”
A girl with platinum hair in a black uniform jumped out.
The girl narrowed her eyes resembling an angry cat.
“It’s not appropriate for Sirini to do this.”
“……Nihaku.”
“I’m an idiot, so I can’t think of complicated things, but I don’t think that Sirini’s mind when thinking of the Master is wrong. It’s just that the method was skewed.”
Nihaku Guest Fel.
In Niflheim, she was the daughter of a prostitute who dealt with a hundred nobles.
Nihaku’s mother had her tongue cut out when she was born. Siris couldn’t understand why Nihaku would pronounce it like that at one time, but she was accepting it now. That Nihaku’s way of speaking is an expression of longing for her mother.
“Master is cold, but I think he is a good person. I don’t want to part with him either.
Jigsaw Jigsaw!
Nihaku turned his hand around.
A dazzling bolt of lightning struck, and a golden bow came out.
“Isn’t it?”
Nihaku smiled and looked around.
“It’s been less than a day, but it’s useful. Did you find a way?”
Ridigion appeared from beyond the dirt road.
A cold gaze ran down Siris’ entire body.
“It’s difficult to be ahead of words. If we’re gathered, at least one can be counted.”
Siris took a deep breath.
And he opened his mouth.
“There is one, unconfirmed method.”
“How unchecked?”
“I can’t guarantee the odds of success. But I think it’s better than letting go.”
“Anything is better than standing still.”
Lydigion leaned against the tree right behind him.
“Is there a possibility that that method will come true? Did you find a concrete means? How to start from now on, to establish a plan…”
“That would be my role.”
A woman in a robe walked out of the fog beyond the flower bed.
The hood lowered, revealing clean gray hair.
“I personally have been looking for Sue too. If you know how… let me take on the task of verifying the feasibility of that plan. Isn’t that always the case?”
Yurnet Cid smiled softly at Siris.
“I made the same mistake as you. You don’t have to blame everything on yourself. Everyone here is a sinner.”
“hmm?”
“Do you have something to say, Lydigion?”
“Well, I’m also responsible for not stopping it.”
Lydegion smiled bitterly.
Nihaku raised his fist high and shouted.
“It’s a shame that we all made a mistake together. We don’t have to blame each other. Let’s correct our mistakes!”
“How are you going to make it right?”
“I will submit the plan by this evening. Please review it.”
“Yes. Let’s come up with a feasible strategy.”
Yurnet cleared her throat awkwardly, then turned to Siris.
“Does the operation include the existence of ‘Amkena’?”
“That’s… yes.”
“Looks like a method similar to what I had in mind. It won’t take long.”
“Tell me in advance. If the plan fails, we don’t know what will happen.”
Siris lowered her eyes.
If I had fallen into the abyss alone, I wouldn’t have hesitated.
However, everyone’s lives depended on this operation.
“If anyone wants to return home, raise your hand. I won’t say anything. We swore allegiance to the Master, but you all have your own lives. Master will understand.”
“Each one’s own life… is it?”
“This is your last chance.”
Siris looked back at his comrades.
No one reacted.
He was just looking at Siris with a determined expression.
‘Our destiny has been decided.’
except for one person.
“By the way, where did my little brother go?”
Nihaku said while twisting the back of his hair.
Only 4 people gathered in the garden.
One person who should be there was missing.
“There is no response from Muden who went to Taoneer. Originally, he was supposed to return by today.”
Siris looked around.
Nisel’s gathering spirit must have been passed on to Muden as well.
But it didn’t show up… … .
‘Do you intend to go your own way?’
Siris smiled bitterly.
The man had often spoken to Siris.
Even if I suddenly disappear, don’t look for me.
“I searched again, but it doesn’t seem to be here.”
“This would be troublesome. If even one person falls out…”
Siris shook her head.
“We should respect the individual’s will. If you decide, it’s our job to let go.”
“But isn’t it strange? Shouldn’t we at least say goodbye? It’s not like we’re going to hold on to each other forcibly. Didn’t we get tired of seeing each other?”
“Is it a personal doctor?”
Lydigion clicked his tongue.
A feeling of regret flooded his eyes.
“That man must have reached his limit after all.”
“Limits? What do you mean?”
“Nihaku, I’ll explain that in a moment.”
story later.
You can find out about Muden from tomorrow.
Even if you’re not here right now, there’s no problem if you join later.
“anyway.”
sereung.
Siris pulled out Levatein.
The reddish blade of the sword shone eerily.
“As of this time today, we are a community of destiny. The four of us who have gathered here place top priority on achieving our goals.”
“That goal is…”
“To save the Master.”
The problems to be solved were scattered like a mountain.
Loki lost his humanity.
The problem of fragments piled up on the border.
How to get there where there is no passage.
What to do in front of the master.
‘One thing is certain.’
That she goes on without stopping.
Siris held out the blade of Levatein’s sword.
“okay.”
Lydigion had a cold smile on his lips.
“It’s been a while. It’ll be okay.”
Karuk.
The attitude was pulled with a noise like scraping a scabbard.
A curved silver blade lay across the Levatein.
“I won’t back down… any longer.”
Yurnet opened the book.
The book of Naglfar was placed on top of the attitude.
“Is the little brother not coming?”
“…”
“Sorry, but I’ll do this first.”
A bow rod smelted of gold was perched on top.
Siris looked around at the three in turn.
“From today we do not hesitate.”
“yes.”
“I know.”
“of course.”
“then…….”
belt ring.
the sound of something bouncing.
Siris caught the object flying at her face.
‘This.’
A purple iron badge.
In the middle of the badge, the shape of a sheep is engraved.
“…!”
Siris looked ahead.
A dirt path leading to the garden entrance.
A young man with a spear was walking.
Arriving at the garden, the young man looked around at the four of them and then fell silent.
“Oh, what about that window?”
Nihaku looked back at the young man with his mouth wide open.
“It’s your little brother’s stuff! Where did you get it from!”
“This is something Master gave me. He said he would entrust it to me.”
Aaron said bluntly.
“Little brother…”
“…”
Siris stared at the man in front of him.
Muden boasted so much that, even though it was their first meeting, he knew his true identity right away.
unwavering eyes. He resembled the boy who always looked light but had seriousness.
Siris opened her mouth.
“Are you okay? The weight of that spear isn’t light.”
“It’s what I was determined to do.”
If Muden truly handed over Ruin to that young man, Siris had no right to refuse.
Nihaku, who was making a confused expression, soon hardened his face.
Now was not the time to bring up Muden’s story.
“Why are we here?”
“Brother.”
Aaron corrected himself.
Then he took out his spear and placed it on Brunak.
“It’s to save the Master.”
“good.”
Siris smiled.
“To our King…”
Five voices merged into one.
“Victory.”
