#429. Because there is a solution.

* * *

Time Manipulation.

The most mysterious power among the seven psionics.

Even if it was simply used for accelerating time, its efficacy and power surpassed all psionics.

That’s why the silver dragon clan is the only one comparable to the gold dragon clan.

However, because of the foresight of the White Dragon Princess, her feelings dried up and died.

Because the Black Dragon Princess can read minds, she can’t trust others.

Just as Green Dragon Princess gnaws away lifespan due to poison.

Even the Silver Dragon, who was gifted with the power of time manipulation, had side effects that could never be overcome.

It was that the more time was manipulated, the more the sense of time and ego were destroyed.

“We live a different time than normal people.”

If time is accelerated by tens or hundreds of times, it is possible to accomplish in a day what other people would spend months doing.

However, if you turn it upside down, it means that you go through months of time alone in a day.

Memories of yesterday become memories.

The person I saw a week ago becomes unfamiliar.

A place you passed a month ago becomes unfamiliar as if you’ve been there in decades.

The more you manipulate time, the more you suffer from a sense of alienation as if you are the only one living in a different world.

It’s useless even if you don’t use psionics.

Like other clans, the Silver Dragon clan cannot completely control their psionics.

No matter how restrained you may be, you will use time manipulation either inadvertently or instinctively.

“That’s why you’re going crazy.”

one month, one year, ten years.

As time accumulates and the sense of alienation grows, what kind of person he was becomes ambiguous and only emotions pile up.

Just like filling a bucket, the water eventually overflows.

All kinds of emotions that are only accumulated in the accelerated time, but not resolved, make me feel the joy of loneliness and memories of decades worth of things at the same time.

The end result is the collapse of the ego.

Of course, forgetting yourself and doing everything according to the urge of the moment.

In the end, it was a runaway of madness that wanted to destroy everything and destroy itself.

“To prevent that from happening, our clan made themselves into machines.”

“…”

“In a way that protects one’s ego by making a rule that will not change even after tens of thousands of years and thoroughly maintaining it.”

Little habits that you usually have.

Rules that must be followed.

what do you like

what do you hate

up to that priority.

It defines everything of a human being called himself.

That’s how you build the wall of the super-ego made up of morality and ethical beliefs.

Thoroughly control your emotions and impulses (Id).

Always act like oneself and maintain one’s own feelings to protect one’s identity.

Even if the urge is runaway, if it is not like you, classify it as madness and block it yourself.

If cyborgs were artificial substitutes for natural ones, then all the silver dragons were mental cyborgs.

“Actually, it’s easy for the other kids. You just have to fear me and be loyal to me.”

“….”

“It’s a bit difficult for me, but.”

Catherine giggled.

Other clans can maintain their ego by turning madness into fanaticism for the princess.

But, of course, there was no one to entrust such madness to.

It was not easy for the Silver Dragon Princess to maintain her ego, as she had to wander farther than anyone else as she was born with a powerful psionic.

My heart froze because I restrained my impulses so thoroughly with the Myeong-ok Hosim-ryu.

In order to disperse overflowing emotions, she is attached to her younger brother who doesn’t even exist.

No matter how strictly you follow the rules.

In the end, the ego is cracked and madness overflows.

“Is that the same for your brother?”

“…What do you mean?”

“Maintaining one’s self by keeping the lines one has drawn.”

Immortal Sword Master.

You can live an infinite amount of time.

That’s why, inevitably, a cursed existence that has no choice but to be stained with madness higher than that of the silver dragon clan.

However, Yekathrice smiled deeply when she saw the monstrous man who had lived longer than any other sword master and remained sane.

“I was honestly curious. What was your brother’s line that he could not go crazy even after living for such a long time?”

“But now I get it.”

“To protect the world.”

“Isn’t that the first line you set to maintain your ego?”

Also for a sense of justice.

Not even for morality or mercy.

Not out of conviction or duty.

In order not to go crazy like a swordsman or a swordsman.

Or, after ruining everything like Swordsman, didn’t he protect the world and live as a guardian of mankind in order to avoid self-destruction?

Limon did not answer the girl who asked a meaningful question.

He swung his sword and cut away the shadows.

Seeing Limon like that, Yekathrice smiled even deeper.

“It would be one of your brother’s lines not to interfere in politics as much as possible or not to compromise in taking hostages.”

If there is a thief, catch it.

The murder of a soldier just stands by.

Instead, if a country causes a massacre, the whole country is crushed.

Actions that are completely contradictory, but are reasonable depending on whether or not they have crossed the line they set.

“By the way, oppa, do you know what people say about people who live only according to their lineage?”

“…”

“Call me a lunatic.”

No one can make perfect choices all the time.

Depending on the mood and growth situation of the moment, doing things that are not like oneself and making mistakes is a human thing and it is life.

Even so, what if there are people who set priorities and live by their own rules?

People usually say

“Swordsmith, you are already crazy.”

Because the direction of their madness is different, they can only imitate normal people with a plausible appearance.

that you are no different from yourself.

Limon did not deny the point of the girl who smiled as if she were

seeing her kind… or rather, as if she was delighted to see a maniac more severe than herself.

I just asked quietly.

“What did you mean by that?”

For the sake of the world, even use enemies.

If it was harmful to mankind, even the disciple was cut down.

The guardian of mankind who decided to kill millions without hesitation in order to save more people.

Nevertheless, Ekatriche giggled at Limon, who calmly asked if she was crazy or not.

“I really just wanted to say it once.”

He said that he was expecting a more violent reaction, but it is regrettable that he accepted it so calmly.

A bit of a playful laugh.

Yekathrice said lightly.

“The important thing is that just as my brother has lines to follow, I also have lines to follow.”

round and round

“So, if my brother is going to kill for a good cause…”

The dagger is in his grasp.

After holding lightly in reverse water.

Looking at Limon.

The craziest princess of the Seven Dragons declared with a bright smile.

“I will stop you.”

* * *

Maybe it’s because I heard so unexpected words.

Even the swinging of the sword stopped and I looked at Yekatrice for a while.

In that short gap, Limon opened his mouth, slicing the huge shadow like a mountain that was trying to grow in size.

“Are you going to fight me to protect the citizens of Moscow?”

“huh.”

“It is crazy.”

“I know, in fact, that your brother’s method is the best.”

she’s just crazy

never stupid

If you think about it calmly, the way to defeat the Demon God with the least damage is to leave it to Limon.

That he couldn’t be Limon’s opponent.

I knew better than anyone.

“You’re still willing to give up your life?”

“Because this country is mine.”

Even so, Yekathrice did not hesitate to answer.

With a mischievous face as always, he just declared it without any hesitation.

“I’m the only one who can touch mine.”

harass the people

destroy the country

Or cause a massacre.

The only thing you can do in this country is yourself.

He said that anyone who dares to touch his own will not be forgiven, whether he is a demon god or a sword master.

At the end of watching a girl who says crazy things that no dictator in the world would do.

Limon asked.

“If you block me, what will happen after that? Are you going to watch the demon destroy the whole world like this?”

“Of course not.”

“Or you want to exterminate the people of Moscow with your own hands before they die because you drank with me?”

“Yeah, that’s a bit of a tempting choice, but… hold off for now.”

“Then what are you doing?”

It would be quicker to wield a sword to subdue them.

Yet, Yekathrice smiled as she watched Limon dare to ask her thoughts.

“Isn’t that simple?”

With a mischievous smile as if he didn’t know why he was asking such an obvious thing.

Yekathrice declared.

“I just need to stop drinking.”

“…do you think that’s possible?”

I will defeat the Demon God without taking any damage.

If you can’t do that, don’t bother and turn it off.

Limon frowned at Yekathrice, who was so proud of her madness.

“With that body right now, when there is no light dragon to help you and it is difficult to properly use the rites due to the demon’s curse?”

It was a sharp point.

The black pattern that had already started on her left arm reached her left cheek and chest beyond her shoulder and neck.

Because she was using quite a bit of psionic power just by suppressing the curse, Yekathrice was not in a state where she could display her skills.

Even if there is no curse, it is the same.

In the Seven Dragons, the one that the Blue Dragon Princess, who is the most outstanding in one-on-one, couldn’t win even after mobilizing her entire family.

It’s not fully resurrected yet, but to face the devil without the seven dragons to resonate with psionics.

If it was the Golden Dragon Princess, I wouldn’t know.

For other princesses, the attempt itself was an act of madness that could only be described as an act of suicide.

However, Yekathrice was not intimidated by Limon’s point.

I just smiled.

“If that’s the case, don’t worry. Because there is a solution.”

“Measures?”

“huh.”

Hearing his own answer, he only narrowed his eyebrows even more.

The silver-haired girl teased Limon, who showed no sign of trust.

“Aren’t you forgetting something important, oppa? That we don’t necessarily need the Seven Dragons to exert our full strength.”

“What is that…”

Limon hesitated.

The moment I saw the smile on Yekathrice’s lips.

It was because I remembered what the countermeasure she was talking about was.

“You can’t…!”

He moved reflexively.

To prevent her from doing anything.

Unfortunately, however, the fastest princess of the Seven Dragons, faster than the sword master, stretched out her arm before Limon could even stop her.

The moment her right arm, which had been extended to the end, was pulled at once.

Fu-wook!

flesh splits

Drops of blood spurt out.

The deformed dagger, held upside down in her hand as white as jade, was lodged in her chest.

“…even if you turned around, it turned properly.”

“Ahaha… That’s the best compliment ever.”

what was already expected.

But I hope you did it until the end.

While Limon is embarrassed to see her actually committing an atrocity that not only the princesses of other clans, but even the previous Silver Dragon princesses, have never attempted.

Catherine thought.

Just seeing Limon’s face like that was worth it.

The moment when the girl with such a blissful smile pushed the dagger deeper into her heart.

pounding.

The dragon’s instinct, feeling the crisis of life, awakens.

her silver eyes.
