612 610 Relationship between Sierra and Romeo (2/2)

”My eyes are soggy”

”Eyes?”

Speaking of which, you said it before. Romeo's eyes staring at Fran and Sierra's were just like mine.

Sierra, the person in question doesn't seem convinced at all. Well, I don't care what your eyes say. I'm roaring and stroking my own eyes.

But he decided to convince me, for now, that it was okay because you believed me.

”Well, if you believed me, I don't mind”

”What happened?

”... for me, 8 years ago. For you guys, now...... It's getting pretty different from the history I know, so it's not going to happen again.”

He spoke slowly and sequentially of what had happened to him, as he himself remembered.

8 years ago for them.

It seems Romeo and Zero Thread were still fleeing to this country then. But Romeo and the others before him today had changed dramatically the path we would follow from there.

The previous Romeos said that Zelaise had caught them in this country. I don't think you'll ever get caught if you're as strong as Zero Thread.

”They took me hostage...”

Because of this, Zero Thread became the subject of a variety of human experiments, he said.

”Human experiments?

”Demon stones and pseudo-fanatical swords were implanted in the body and administered various drugs. When I was young, all I could do was look at my transforming uncle.”

Uncle...... Even in the previous world, Romeo's relationship with Zero Thread seems to have been good. Still, being caught and experimenting with the human body...... The Romeo guys protected at the academy didn't say that, did they?

”Not like the Romeos over here?

'Cause we led them to it.

In the previous world, he fled the adventurers of the Kingdom of Verios and the Wiena Lane, and was eventually captured by Zelaise. But here, Sierra dared to leak information about the Romeos to the Adventurers' Guild so that they could be captured early.

”We knew Weena Lane wouldn't kill us immediately before. If it was, it would be far more than Zelaisse.”

”I see.”

The previous Romeo's then continued to be used as good by Zelaise. Only Romeo, however, seems to have been protected by Weena Lane.

Zelaisse, who was looking into the seal of the Great Warcraft, was spotted on the Wiena Lane and stormed Azit.

”So I was taught my own blood muscles and the power to sleep in them. I used to tie my uncle up before I knew it...”

But a few days after Romeo was protected by Weena Lane. Things change rapidly. And Zelaisse sought the resurrection of the Great Warcraft, and appeared in its sealed land.

It was Weena Lane and Fran, who was employed by her, who moved to stop it.

Fran, who was targeting Zero Thread as a vendetta, strikes without even hearing the surrounding deterrence when he gets in front of him. In the aftermath of that intense battle, the commercial fleet is said to have been devastated.

That fits the language Lane was saying. I guess I ended up with a sword and there was no one to stop Fran. No, you had one person who seemed to be able to stop you.

”Weena Lane didn't stop me?

”I abandoned the commercial fleet, but I made it a priority to keep my uncle out of the way.”

While Fran was suppressing zero lead, Wiener Lane apparently tried to re-seal the Great Warcraft that was beginning to resurrect. At the expense of Romeo's life.

”With the power of Magnolia, we can absorb the power of the evil man. It was supposed to be the user's power, but Weena Lane tried to use it in a special way.”

The power of the Communion of the Evil God, hidden in the blood of the Magnolia family. With its power, it absorbs the power of the shards of the Evil God that are captured within the Great Warcraft and uses the absorbed power to use a massive sealing technique.

In other words, it is a way of weakening the Great Warcraft as well as harnessing its power to seal the Great Warcraft itself.

”If it's about goblins that absorb power, it's fine. But they were too bad then. Young Romeo dies unbearably if he is allowed to act like a pipe that continues to absorb power from the shards of the Evil God and then flows further into the sealing ceremony”

But Weena Lane still didn't try to stop the ritual. Whatever sacrifice you made, I guess you were going to seal the Great Warcraft.

”Me too, I can understand now. I'm not gonna blame you.”

There was really no resentment color in Sierra's voice when she said she had been sacrificed herself. He accepts that it's a matter of no choice.

But some cannot accept Romeo's death. Zero lead. He managed to scratch Romeo to help him, and Fran slashed him to death by showing him the gap.

”Honestly, I don't really remember what happened after that either. As soon as I managed to help my uncle, my powers ran wild...”

When he noticed, he was down in the woods alone.

Talking that far, Sierra pulls out her lower back sword.

”There was no one else. It's just this sword was falling beside me.”
