78 – Why is it that person?

the person you see in front of your eyes.

She stands with a huge scythe that could cut down on the moon.

Standing tall as always, with waving red hair, a being of utmost strength and beauty.

At the same time,

for her

As for Elisa.

A person who is more valuable than anyone else.

The final target that I have always admired.

Looking at that person…

Elisa drew her dagger and slowly turned to the person on the stage…

She drew close to Elias, her mother.

“I never expected to meet you like this in a place like this, my daughter.”

“… ”

At the same time as Elisa appeared, Elias showed a warm smile as always.

However, seeing her like this, Elisha just straightened her posture without any reply.

“Are you thinking of starting right away? Don’t be in too much of a hurry, though, you could get hurt if you’re too impatient.”

“…”

Elias speaks in a voice filled with kindness toward Elisa, who releases her magical energy and seems ready to attack at any moment.

At this, Elisa began to feel a little emotional, feeling that the girl in front of her was not showing any seriousness toward her daughter.

and…

“!”

-visor!!

In an instant, Elisa’s blow assimilated her body into the shadow and at the same time flew at terrifying speed.

The attack, which had a speed that was difficult to follow even with the naked eye, fell precisely toward Elias, and Elias quickly moved his sickle to close it.

“… Even though… Isn’t this a bit harsh for Mom?”

Elias speaks with a little dissatisfaction.

But,

Even so, looking at her that still doesn’t break the smile on her lips.

Elisa spoke in a voice filled with passion.

“Don’t even think about it, Mama, now I… Because I’m really serious! certainly… I will definitely defeat Mama and make sure to sort things out between that man and Mama!”

“!!”

Elisha’s sincere words.

At this, Elias’ face, which had been filled with composure, began to be enveloped in a feeling of bewilderment for a moment.

“to… Elisa? ji… what to say now… ”

As he said that, Elias’ hand, which was blocking Elisa’s dagger, began to loosen slightly.

At the same time,

Elisha aroused her emotions even more and shouted as she pushed Elias with her momentum.

“Don’t pretend! I already know everything. That Mama is in love right now! And every time I have time, I go to see him and spend time alone!”

“Kuh!…”

Elias can no longer refute Elisha’s sharp words.

But after a while

As she pushed back Elisa’s attack, which she could have narrowly blocked,

Then, with still trembling eyes, he carefully asked Elisha a question.

“uh… How… did you know?”

“Of course you can tell by pretending! Did you really think I wouldn’t know when you’re showing off so much?”

“… ha… ”

Elias let out a heavy sigh at Elisha’s words.

Then, she exploded the power contained in her hand in an instant and pushed Elisa away.

“Chit!”

Elisa backs away a bit from Elias’ actions.

right after that.

Elias looked at his daughter in front of his eyes as if he had made up his mind for something, and spoke in a much quieter voice.

“okay… If this happens, there will be no more excuses.”

Bitterness.

A bit of resignation.

And the attitude of Elias, where you can feel something like the will underlying it.

Then, looking at her precious daughter in front of her eyes, she continued with a determined voice.

“Yes, as you said… Mom, there is someone I love right now. The kind of person who sincerely thinks of remarrying.”

“!…”

Elias reacts as if he has already made up his mind and speaks firmly.

Looking at her like that,

Elisa automatically felt a stinging pain in the corner of her heart, and as it was, she lowered her head and spoke in a trembling voice.

“… Why… why… Why is it that person?”

“L… lisa?”

“Why are you that person? To be honest, we haven’t been on good terms ever since we first met! Why did you choose that person now? how… why!!”

Elisha sheds tears and screams as if screaming.

At the same time, she started to charge at Elias, brandishing her sword mercilessly as if her emotions were running out of control.

“!”

For an instant, Elisa charges forward, raising the shadow of the ground like a blade.

Elias automatically felt a sense of surprise at her new attack method, which was quite different from what he had seen before, and began to hurriedly prepare for defense.

And as a result…

-Kwagwawang!!!

Suddenly, a loud explosion sounded.

Noise and shock as if dozens of iron poles were being driven down began to sweep the area, and at the same time, due to the dust that occurred, their gaze was blocked for a moment.

*

The scene of the battle that changed violently in an instant, and the thick dust that obscured the view for an instant.

As I thoroughly observed this series of situations, as Elisa had requested, I began to feel both a bit of surprise and a feeling of doubt.

‘Not only being assimilated into the shadow, but also physically manipulating it… Certainly, compared to the previous battles, I can see that I have become stronger.’

In terms of combat power, it was clearly recognizable that there had been development to the point of being praised.

However, apart from this fact, personally, I couldn’t help but feel doubts about Elisa’s appearance, which seemed to show some kind of intense emotion during the previous battle.

‘I don’t think I can hear the sound well because it’s far away, but no matter how I look at it, it looks like he’s arguing with his mother about something? What are you talking about like that… ‘

It could be said that it was only natural for daughter and mother to quarrel with each other over various issues.

The problem is that the fight is taking place in the middle of a national-scale tournament like this.

From that point of view, I came to think that the commander of the corps and the lady of the bodyguards were great in a different sense.

‘This is the style of doing everything you have to say without paying attention to the people around you, right? but… Elisha and Elias are as spirited as he is, so he might be able to wrestle with Samson.’

I was reminded once again that her courage, apart from her frail appearance, was truly amazing, as it was Elias, who had been expressing her personality without blinking an eye against Samson, who looked terrifying like a sand thief.

That was the time when I was waiting for the dust in front of my eyes to clear while thinking about this and that.

“iced coffee… ”

The next moment I hear an emoticon next to me… No, it was Samuel’s voice filled with sadness.

Right after that, I could easily recognize why such a story came out of her mouth.

the scene in front of me

that…

Elisa’s shadow attack pierced all over her body and shed blood.

revealed at the same time.

He was dragging Elisha into a hug in such a messed up state.

It was the look of Elias.

*

“mind… Mama… Uh… why?”

Elias, the mother who strongly hugs her body.

for her actions,

Elisha, who was momentarily overcome with passion and attacked, couldn’t help but feel a deep sense of bewilderment.

In that fleeting moment, Elisha saw.

The figure of Elias, who cuts off his own attack and digs into the range where the attack is possible.

‘I could have fought back as much as I wanted… if you put your mind to it Rather, it’s a moment that should have overpowered me. By the way… ‘

However, at the last moment, instead of fighting back, Elias chose to embrace her body.

Elisa, who was engulfed in passion at the sight of her mother doing such a thing with her whole body covered in blood, was shocked as if she had poured cold water on her head.

and,

Looking at Elisha like that.

Elias patted her head slowly and spoke in a calm voice.

“… do you hate it that much? The fact that this mother loves him… that he will be my daughter’s stepfather…”

“… ”

Elias talks about his daughter without losing the hunt for his daughter even in the painful situation with holes all over his body.

Her words flew like arrows and were firmly lodged in Elisha’s chest.

But.

Nevertheless, Elisha struggled to open her mouth as she struggled not to be swept away by her mother’s extremely strong affection.

“… no… really… me… Just the thought of Mama being with him. here… My heart hurts so much. Why is he that person… why… Among many, many people, that person… Did you come to love the hero?”

“… yes?”

The next moment, at Elisha’s words, Elias looked blank as it was.
