Star Drive
To connect the infinite universe.
A route between stars found by fairies in the distant past.
A technology that can break away from the axis of time and space and jump over distances that would take tens of millions of years at the speed of light is beyond even a miracle of God.
half a year at most.
in that short time.
It was entirely thanks to him that Limon was able to destroy the majority of the dungeon gates.
But don’t be mistaken.
Star drive is not a miracle technology.
No matter how advanced it was, its utility and limitations were fixed.
The technology of moving tens of millions of light-years in an endless universe was certainly great, but it could not be said to be absolute.
Even more so if you repeat such a trip hundreds of times.
So it was.
During about half a year on Earth.
The reason why Limon and Yuna-kyung spent 20 years in Santa Maria?
from as short as a few hours to as long as several months.
Every time I moved on the star drive, the accumulated time gap eventually created a gap dozens of times.
So it was.
The reason why Limon suddenly opened his mouth after looking at Yuna-gyeong, who was deeply moved.
“Why is it that you are suddenly a baby bird? If you include your previous life, your age is…”
“Wait a minute?! You have to subtract your previous age! If you put it like that, all the people in the world are over tens of thousands of years old?!?!”
“Your case is special.”
“I never wanted anything special like that! Besides, it’s only been half a year in our world, so if you look at it objectively, I’m still a green baby bird!”
“…No matter what, I think it’s too shameless to ask for a baby at that age?”
“Heh, I’m a little shameless.”
Limon stared blankly at Yuna-gyeong, who was boasting with her chest wide open.
It’s not just out of admiration for the shamelessness.
Because he felt it all over again.
20 years of time.
It was a time that could never be called short even for an immortal who had lived for hundreds of years.
All the more, the fact that he spent all of that time searching for constellations and fighting the constellations on one ship called the Santa Maria.
But more than anything else, it was Yuna-kyung who made Limon feel that fact desperately.
Long hair that grew to her hips.
A little bit more human.
And even a slightly matured atmosphere.
Whether it’s because of the unusual lineage of being a spirit beast and familiar, or because it’s transformed into magic, the appearance is almost the same as it was 20 years ago.
Even so, she clearly felt the growth.
Well, it was natural.
It’s just that he, a sword master, is unique.
Since he was a mortal, it was natural for him to change and grow over time.
As she herself said, it was enough for the young baby bird to become an adult.
Realizing this fact anew, Limon stared blankly at Yuna-kyung, but after a while, he suddenly opened his mouth.
“Na Kyung-ah.”
“yes.”
“I see your chest.”
“…”
Hearing that absurd point.
Yuna-kyung, who blinked, slowly lowered her head.
And after checking the plump skin revealed through the slightly raised feathers due to being overly proud.
I tilted my head.
“Why is that?”
“If you are an adult, it means you should take care of your appearance.”
“Ah, what is the attitude between the team leader and me? I’ve seen everything that we can’t see each other anyway.”
“What is that?”
Isn’t it more strange to have a pet that is embarrassed to see its owner?
Limon couldn’t help but smile bitterly when he saw Yuna-kyung speaking proudly without even wearing a single thread.
about 20 years.
Almost 25 years, including the time I spent at PAB.
It was the two of them who had been together for such a long time and had fought against constellations of stars in all kinds of bizarre constellations.
It was more awkward now that I had to worry about this all over again.
Just last night, I touched Yuna-kyung’s body in every nook and cranny.
So it was.
The reason why he asked the question as if he had suddenly remembered Limon.
“How is your body?”
“My condition is always the best!”
Yuna-kyung replied with a lively smile.
“Honest sincerity?”
“…It tastes like death.”
and thump
banged his head on the table.
Seeing her stretched out like a corpse as if her cheerful appearance from earlier was a lie, Limon nodded as if he knew that.
“As expected, it seems that the burden is getting bigger.”
“It’s not a big deal… I really thought I was going to die last night.”
“Yes, so I must have screamed for you to leave.”
“I don’t think that’s what the person who stabbed me and shoved something hideous into me no matter how much I hurt.”
Limon calmly accepted Yuna-kyung’s grumbling.
He knew very well how difficult she was right now.
If he hadn’t played all night to relieve pain and improve his condition, he wouldn’t be able to walk at all.
“So are you going to stop now?”
“No, I can’t.”
nevertheless.
Yuna-kyung answered immediately without hesitation.
Then he looked directly at Limon with his bright eyes and continued.
“If I can’t handle this much pain, I won’t be able to survive in the future.”
“…”
Those words of Yun Na-kyung.
he didn’t deny it.
no i couldn’t deny it
How many times did she almost die in the battles she had with countless constellations over the past 20 years?
Because I couldn’t even count them all.
No matter how much Limon was, he couldn’t protect Yuna-kyung while fighting the constellation, which was no different from the providence of the constellation itself.
Like the hull of the Santa Maria, which has problems everywhere after decades of fighting and journey.
Or…
“I’m still alive because Shera sacrificed herself to protect me.”
Fold the wings slightly.
pressing his own chest.
Yuna-kyung quietly closed her eyes.
Due to unreasonable efforts to protect her from repeated death struggles, she barely managed to preserve her with magic when her spiritual body was damaged and almost disappeared.
But in return, to feel another soul sleeping deep inside.
Maybe it’s because the powerful soul of a saint dwells there, even if it’s not perfect.
Now, even if I don’t use Shinmaun, the power of magic overflows, and thanks to that, I’ve been able to develop several levels of magic over the past 20 years.
Now, even among absolutes, she had reached a level where no one could compare.
nevertheless.
Limon and Yuna-kyung.
I knew.
The fact that the fight against the Constellation is not easy enough to withstand at least with the power of the Absolute.
That was why Yuna-kyung asked a question.
“Isn’t it about halfway through now?”
“okay.”
“Then, I have to think that it will take about 20 more years to finish all the remaining dungeons.”
“maybe.”
“Even then, the fight with the Constellations might continue.”
“Maybe.”
Limon said calmly.
While crossing many constellations with the star drive, they got to know each other.
The constellations connected to the dungeon were only a part of it, and the power of the constellations was greater than they imagined.
“Until this is all over, can we… no, humanity survive?”
“I will endure.”
Even if the already tattered Santa Maria endures the journey and miraculously destroys all the dungeons and returns.
To Yuna-gyeong, who is anxious about whether humanity will perish by then.
Limon said.
“Because there are my bride and disciples there.”
“…Your faith is amazing.”
“of course.”
Would you call this affectionate?
Or call it a bride fool.
It was a while to look at Limon, who believed without a shadow of a doubt that his brides could not fail to protect mankind.
Yuna-kyung eventually burst out laughing.
Even if you are anxious anyway, as long as nothing changes, you have to believe in the rest.
Because I could see that it was Limon’s will.
So she said lightly.
“Then you just have to worry about time. By the time everything is over, I will become a magical lady, not a magical girl.”
“No, you’re already old enough to be called a girl…”
“That’s why!”
Cutting off Limon’s words in the middle.
Yuna-kyung jumped up.
Then, with both wings propped up against the table, he pushed his upper body out and said with his face close to Limon.
“Team leader, when this fight is over, just listen to my two requests!”
“…what are you talking about all of a sudden?”
“I go through this hardship following the team leader, but there must be at least a reward!”
“Are you the one who took the free ride?”
“Anyway, there is a degree! Just asking them to volunteer for 20 years is at the level of animal abuse!”
“What are you asking for?”
Looking at Yuna-kyung, who puts a band around her head and ardently argues as if she is going to protest, she feels embarrassed for a while.
Limon scratched his cheek.
In fact, considering the hardships she had gone through, he was willing to listen to any request.
But…
“Marriage!”
“…”
That moment.
A strange silence came.
Not only Limon, who was sitting at the table, but also the unmanned vacuum cleaner carrying repair parts stood still.
He was silent while watching the smiling blue bird alone, and after a long time passed, he opened his mouth quietly.
“…Are you proposing to me right now?”
“Ah, that can’t be. It just means that if you are an owner, you should find a mate responsibly like an owner.”
“….”
“In my previous life, I didn’t even have a chance to date before dying.
Take a moment to look at the brazenly speaking blue bird with a complicated face.
after letting out a deep sigh.
Limon quietly opened his mouth.
“Is there a bird you want to marry?”
“Do you think I’m asking you this because I want to marry a bird right now?! Even if you look at me like this, your ideal type is a picky girl!”
“What is your ideal type?”
“Mmmmm well.”
At Limon’s words to listen, Yuna-kyung pondered for a while, then sat back down and started talking while moving her spoon.
“First, you have to be in good shape. Because muscles are justice.”
“You just have to have a manly face. If you are handsome, the icing on the cake.”
“I think you have to be strong enough to protect your family no matter what, but surprisingly have a kind side that takes good care of the children.”
“In that respect, age is good. In general, older people are trustworthy and tolerant.”
“Even if he has a bit of a temper, he will be more attractive if he has the aspect of taking care of his woman thoroughly.”
It’s like you’ve thought of it beforehand.
As she lined up her requirements without interruption, she added one last word.
“Oh, and it doesn’t matter if you are unemployed or a home security guard, but you have to be a good cook. I really like that it is a dish where you can feel the sincerity and taste.”
At the end of a long silence in front of Yuna-kyung, who smiles while eating the kimchi stew she made for her.
Limon asked again.
“…you said two requests, but if the first one is to find a husband for you, what is the other one?”
“That’s a secret. I’ll tell you later when the time is right.”
“Is that so…”
Even with the first one, this is the point, but what is the other request, so it is a secret?
Limon didn’t wonder.
Instead, he just looked at her and opened his mouth.
“I’m going to ask you to confirm, but why are you asking that request right now?”
“You know why?”
“…”
“Oh, and I forgot the most important thing among the ideal type conditions.”
“What?”
What more is there than this?
Seeing him asking with a feeling of liberation now, Yuna-kyung smiled brightly and was about to reveal her last condition.
Qurrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr
—The Santa Maria rocked.
