Chapter 441
Abduction 6. Ruina (1)
At the time of the first Ragnarok 10,000 years ago.
Tragedy befell Alfheim.
Tyr, the god of war, came and destroyed the world, followed Odin’s orders and overshadowed the great disaster.
At this time, Henir was the one who fought for this even though he was not an elf on the front line.
first adversary.
The value of the name it had was something that could not be evaluated easily.
A mythical human who confronts Odin in order to prevent the coming disaster and move forward together.
The existence that wrote the heroic epic with the name First.
Alfheim was also helped by this.
Hearing of Tyr’s raid, he requested reinforcements from others, but failed.
Afraid of Odin’s power, trust in each other fell, leaving this beautiful kingdom of elves completely isolated.
It was a pity.
Even in the deplorable situation, there was nothing they could do.
Just leaning on the last hope and contacting one person.
‘The adversary. Henir might help us.’
In fact, I had very little contact with him.
An existence that appears on the battlefield at will in the first place, but when there is a sign of disaster, it blocks it and disappears suddenly.
Because that was the adversary.
However, as a result of contacting them, it was the adversary, not the Allied Forces, that came running first.
It is a reenactment of the past.
It was Henir’s anecdote.
Although it failed to completely stop him, Jaehyun. In other words, Henir showed an overwhelming figure against Tyr.
It was only defeated because there were no soldiers to fight with that number.
Without even that effort, even a few elves would not have been able to survive and maintain their existence.
Everything was possible thanks to Jaehyun’s courage and ability as an adversary.
little human.
However, thanks to the beings who did not small things, the elves did not go extinct, and after 10,000 years of waiting, they were able to defeat Odin.
Ruina was the one who received the most direct help from Jaehyun in the process.
Falling in love was not unreasonable.
As Alfheim’s direct descendant, she deserved to thank him.
Also, the form of the gratitude was free, so it didn’t matter in any way.
Even giving himself to Jaehyun(?) was possible.
Also, Jaehyun will not be able to refuse it.
The famous Rule of Alfheim.
The guest who helped them will be served as an honored guest of Alfheim for the rest of their lives, and refusing the gift is a great disgrace to the elves.
Jaehyun couldn’t possibly refuse his offer.
‘Whoops… even if I’m cowardly, I’m not guilty. I’ve been waiting for 10,000 years, isn’t this level of cuteness okay?’
I rationalize it and glance at Jae-hyun for a while.
Jaehyun is still handsome.
At first, in this kingdom full of beautiful blonde hair, Jaehyun was just an outsider.
Black hair red eyes.
You can tell just by looking at this.
It’s unique and catches the eye, but that’s all.
However, the more time he spent with Jaehyun, the more Louisa got to know him.
That his heart for him is gradually deepening.
There was a reason for ignoring and rejecting numerous men’s proposals over the past 10,000 years.
Anyway, even though she heard that she had to spread her descendants because she was royalty, she heard it with one ear and let it go.
waiting for reappearance just keep on the spot.
waiting patiently.
That was the best she could do.
The reason was simple.
‘Because I promised to meet you again.’
Jaehyun’s promise.
Because she knew it would be preserved.
So she waited for reappearance.
10,000 seasons change and hot flames cover Vanaheim.
She didn’t think about anything until the lush rake grass grew on the collapsed Alfheim and filled the walls.
longing for reenactment. I just endured it.
This was not something that could be done with a lot of concentration.
Jaehyun knew this too.
‘Because you have deep feelings for me. That would have been possible.’
The feeling of love is easily cooled.
It cools down in a very fleeting moment and eventually works in the form of a disaster.
Sometimes it fades and sometimes it collapses. Sometimes it becomes a form of resentment.
It is the same even for those who live in a different time from humans.
Jaehyun had spent a long time with the elves and knew it as a result.
They too are no different from humans.
In the end, it was nonsense that Ruina waited for her. It wouldn’t have been possible if the feelings for him weren’t that deep.
“Luna. Is there any reason why you came here for that date?”
Jaehyun looked around with a slightly embarrassed expression.
The reason was simple.
Unlike when dating Kim Yoo-jung and Seo In-na, there are countless people around.
To be precise, it was because the elves were roaming around.
When Jaehyun and Ruina arrived, they were talking to each other.
– Finally, Lady Louisa is about to get married!
-That person is the antagonist of that legend!?
-and! The real thing is much better! After all, it’s different from the one in the fairy tale book!?
-and! Congratulations on finally getting married!
……Of course, every single word made Jaehyun dizzy.
But Louisa was accepting it as if it were natural.
Jaehyun opened his mouth and tried to stop it, but then stopped.
I didn’t want to intrude here.
The faces of the elves, especially the way the children looked at them.
It was also because he could feel the trust in Ruina’s eyes.
It is a clear feeling.
Jaehyun thought about that and took a step.
The surroundings had already been restored quite a bit.
The grass that grew haphazardly over the fence was cut and moved deep into the forest, and the newly repaired barrier looks safe.
In addition, there are quite a few new tools that can be used.
It must be the work of the dwarves.
Not many people can make gardening tools of such intensity.
Communication and trade between the two races were no longer bad.
All of these are phenomena caused by the role of Jae-hyun.
Did you say that the enemy of the enemy is an ally?
The elves and dwarves didn’t get along, but in the end they decided to join forces.
The nation of Dwarves, which had been buried in Nidavellir, deep in Svartal Fame, was also slowly raising its buildings to advance above the ground.
“Can you see it?”
Ruina suddenly asked.
Jaehyun tilts his head and accepts the words.
“what?”
“It’s all what you did. Your colleagues and Mr. Seo… made this. To break the chains of destiny that bound the nine worlds and make everyone rise up. It allowed me to walk in front of that fog again.”
“It wasn’t something I did alone. you know.”
“Everything needed a focal point. Loki said the other day. ‘I could never have done what he did. So after all, he was the leader. All of us…’”
“I was talking nonsense. Loki’s son.”
Jaehyun, embarrassed for nothing, said that, but Ruina smiled softly.
“You’re ashamed for nothing.”
“Who is ashamed?”
“You are the West.”
Ruina and Jaehyun walked for a long time.
He greeted the elves whenever he saw them, and whenever he saw their lively smiles, Jaehyun realized it all over again.
How precious Ruina was to the elves, and how she had spent so much time missing herself as a human.
Jaehyun felt his chest ache a little, as if a thorn had been stuck in his throat.
Anyway, Luna. Because she’s not going to give up on herself.
Even if he refused.
she doesn’t forget herself
I won’t give up either.
I could feel that firm will from her.
The guy walking ahead with his hands behind his back suddenly stops and looks back at Jaehyun.
Then, without permission, he opened his mouth.
“I know. What is the West thinking right now? You don’t want to hurt everyone, do you?”
Jaehyun thought for a moment.
However, I was sure that I would be able to confide in her honestly.
He struggled to open his mouth.
“okay. But… it won’t be easy. No matter what I do, no matter what decision I make, someone is bound to get hurt. It will be the same even now when I postpone the decision.”
“You said it before. You don’t have to think from a human point of view.”
Ruina said something incomprehensible.
Jaehyun was taken aback by the story that he could not easily understand.
And I was about to say something, but Ruina spoke first.
“Should I really tell my heart?” “…….”
“Why wouldn’t I want to monopolize Mr. Seo? I want to hold her alone and hug her… I want to brag to other elves, humans and even dwarves that I am my husband every day after sleeping and waking up in bed together. I think I’m going crazy wanting to do that even now.”
Her voice, a bit choked up, was quite different from the first one.
The bright voice she had when she first arrived in Alfheim had disappeared, but now she had become that of a girl who could not control her growing emotions.
Even Jaehyun doesn’t know what 10,000 years of time means.
But she was different.
He must have experienced that long time and suffered many times.
“Luna.”
“By the way… why do I want to take you and the others with you? Are you curious about that?”
After catching her breath for a while, Ruina looked at Jaehyun for the second time with her eyes wet.
In the meantime, the weak heat that permeates Jaehyun, making one side of his heart shudder.
Ruina A woman who has lived in hell for too long for herself.
If Jaehyun didn’t listen to those words, he didn’t even deserve to be a human, let alone an adversary.
Ruina clenched her fists and lowered her head.
He seemed to be trying to hide his tears.
She tried not to show Jaehyun anything that wasn’t bright.
“Honestly, Miss Seo Eana… Compared to Ms. Kim Yu-jung, I spent too little time with Seo Bang-nim. No matter how long I’ve missed you, Seo-Bang-nim wouldn’t have felt it. Even if the season of longing has passed tens of thousands of times, not 10,000 times, nothing changes. So for me, this is the best.”
Tears dripped down her clenched hands.
A round mark that spreads like paint.
Seeing this, Jaehyun tried to reach out to Ruina, but then stopped.
“Rather than losing everything, staying together and being loved by the West even a little bit. That’s what I want. So please don’t take away even the little bit of you left in me.”
Hot tears finally flowed from Ruina’s eyes.
Jaehyun couldn’t do anything other than give Ruina a hug.
This was the best I could do for a woman who had longed for herself for a very long time.
Only this was all.
