Chapter 102 (2/2)

Black lines of a broken jar.

The scattered fragments are like a puzzle pieces.

Almost as if I a.s.semble the fragments according to the black lines, it would turn back as it used t obe.

『Blood and Iron Alchemy』

Words float in my heart.

Words.

Will this jar get repaired if I use that skill?

And then…… I thought like I had fixed a jar once before.

But… how was it that time?

Did I do it well?

Or…… did I fail?

How was it?

I am troubled.

I can’t recall.

I can’t remember anything at all.

First of all, it’s doubtful whether I have been in this place before.

I can’t be sure.

But, should I give it a try?

My heart is trembling.

I can’t restrain my curiosity.

I target the jar and use the skill.

I concentrate.

『Blood and Iron Alchemy』

I restore the jar and the mummy according to the black lines.

The jar is taking its original shape.

But… the black lines are distorted.

The distorted outlines are fading.

It fades and becomes so thin as if there were no lines at all.

But, this… it may not be possible to restore its original form.

Something is obstructing the restoration.

But, I forcibly adjust it according to the lines.

I restore the jar’s form by force.

Oh.

It’s shaped like a jar now.

While thinking it turned back to its original state…

Ban

Gacha gacha gacha

The restored jar instantly breaks again.

The mummy-like corpse falls out.

I feel disappointed.

I feel down.

I thought I would definitely restore it properly the next time.

I tried reconstructing it once again.

But.

Ban

Gacha gacha gacha

The jar that seemed to return to the original form breaks just as before.

Ban

Gacha gacha gacha

As expected, the jar which seemed to return to the original for breaks again.

Ban

Gacha gacha gacha

The jar breaks again.

Restore, break, and repeat.

I try again and again.

The sounds of jar breaking echoes around the s.p.a.ce.

Because it’s the only sound that there is.

And before I noticed… perhaps because I was exhausted… I lost my consciousness.
