My mother's love song

14000 years ago, the day when a white meteor fell from the other side of the sea of ​​stars.

At the same time, a big sword appeared in Rhodes' hand.

It is a mythical costume transformed from the Staff of Selection, the favorite treasure of the deceased Paradise Fairy Altria.

"Well, let's go and finish Altria's unfinished mission."

Chapter 923 Watching over your Promised Star [End of this Volume]

If you find it too hard, just give up.

In the past, Rod had said this to Altria.

Rhodes said, no one can decide your fate arbitrarily.

At that time, Artoria felt very puzzled and didn't understand why Rhodes said such discouraging words to her.

If I could be as tough as Ash, if I could be as strong as Morgan, would you not say that?

Regardless, there was no reason for Altria to give up her mission.

"Reasons are nothing but burdens imposed on you by others.

Altria, people should live for themselves."

"I'm sorry, but I'm not human. I'm a goblin."

Altria corrected the boy's mistake.

Fairies are creatures that pursue [purpose]. Only fairies with [purpose] can maintain their own brilliance.

"No, I'm not talking about 'human beings', but humans in the broad sense of 'human beings'."

The boy said.

“The species are not divided according to the tree of life, but are judged according to the construction of planetary history [humanity].

The so-called "people" are beings with growth potential. Although they have a fixed starting point [origin], they do not have a fixed end point [purpose].

It is precisely because of this that the last primate to become a star in pan-human history was neither a god nor a fairy, but a weak human being.

Unlike the British fairies, the Paradise fairies also have the potential to grow, right? So Altria can also be considered a "human".

Although fairies appear to be free, they are always bound by their [Purpose].

Although humans are weak and powerless, they have far more possibilities than fairies, such as abandoning their mission.

As you and I know, Ash is an outstanding "person"

It was because she gave up her mission as a fairy in paradise and betrayed the Star Sea that the fairy tale country called Britain came into being.

So, Altria, don't take the purpose [mission] imposed on you by the planet too seriously. You should live for yourself. "

"What you said is very contradictory, Rod."

When Artoria heard the name of the previous savior coming out of Rhodes' mouth, she felt a little angry.

"If, as you said, 'people' constitute 'human principles', then 'people' should have a greater sense of responsibility and cannot do whatever they want as you said.

How can a species that shoulders the responsibility of the planet not have this level of responsibility?"

Hearing her say this, Rhodes' expression became extremely serious.

"Why can you abandon your mission? Isn't that a natural thing?"

The boy said word by word.

"If you don't do it, there are plenty of people who will."

"...!!!"

Altria held her breath.

She suddenly had the thought that she was now naked and her body and mind were seen by the boy.

What is the meaning of my existence?

Why did I embark on this pilgrimage?

Obviously, Rhodes can do anything.

Anyway, in the end, Rhodes will definitely solve everything.

"........."

When did I start to have this thought?

The familiar sound of bells echoed in my ears.

I have heard it countless times, but it is not a necessary bell to hear.

It is the nostalgic bell that calls her and believes in her.

All the while running in the storm, the vortex of viciousness, the crucible of nature.

Walking through a dark, cold, deafening human voice that was no different from a sewer.

“No, no, no, no”

I don’t know how many times I’ve thought about not being able to do it and about dying.

Even so, what allowed her to remain calm and move forward courageously was that ray of light.

At the end of the storm, there is a small star shining with blue light.

"Ha ha ha ha!"

When you fall, get up crying.

When you are tired, try your best to raise your head.

The stars are always twinkling in the distance.

[Amidst the malice, the only light will one day be entrusted to my shining future].

"Impossible. That's impossible. No, that kind of thing doesn't matter at all."

To her, the star just twinkled.

That alone became her goal, she just hoped that there was someone else somewhere besides her looking at that star.

This is a fact that will not change no matter how severe the storm.

"Ah, yes. If only someone else could see this star.

Although I am afraid of many things, I cannot believe in many things. "

But all along, the girl was inspired by the light of that star.

Although she could only gaze at the distant stars, she couldn't even reach out and touch them.

Although the star would never shine for her, nor would it fall for her.

"……..Yeah. Although I don't care about Britain and the future. But as long as that star is still shining, it will definitely be."

No matter how big the storm, it has never faded. I have been watching her light since childhood.

The only light in the storm.

Not for the world, not for peace, and not for oneself.

"The only thing I don't want to betray is the tiny starlight that keeps twinkling."

Ah, but there is no way forward.

Accepting the sound of the bell, the girl's journey came to an end.

Her life would no longer move forward, just as she had no happiness of her own in the Chalk City.

If she continues to move forward, she who called out the king's name will disappear and will no longer be needed.

Can you do it? For that one little twinkling star.

"Don't want to betray that beautiful star" for such insignificant, trivial, boring reasons?

“Oh. Ah, ah, ah.”

It was her voice that cursed the end of Britain.

It was her voice that resented having completed her mission in Paradise.

Thousands of accusations, countless voices blaming the girl.

That's what malice is like, the stars shining in the storm do not exist in reality.

She used that as an excuse, and no one could save her except herself.

"Haa ...

What is the real reason for my pilgrimage?"

Is it to end this twisted world, to allow the sinful goblins to atone their sins, or to defeat the evil tyrant?

No, that's not right...any reason is fine.

It doesn't matter what happens to other people.

I don't want to be forced to become a king just for the sake of people who have nothing to do with me.

I don't want to be forced to give up my feelings for a land I don't love.

I don't want to spend my life alone for a mission that was unilaterally assigned to me.

I don't want to do it for such a reason!

"What I want to do... is become a savior."

The girl smiled as if she had suddenly realized something.

"But it's not because of anyone's prophecy or anyone's mission, it's for myself.

To be precise, it was for a reason that I had long forgotten."

"By the way, Rod. I seem to have heard some strange rumors on the street."

"Um, although it's unlikely, are you really the fairy emperor who unified Britain?"

“Hey, hey… So it’s true, gu… The tragic ending of being betrayed by the witch in the end is really your style!”

"So the rumor that you can turn into a big red dragon is true?"

"Tell me the details of your battle with Cathy Palug tonight!"

"Hmm? You're asking me why I know so much about the Fairy Calendar? Is this... is this important?"

"Well, it's because I occasionally read books about you when I was a kid... and I just happened to find it in the stable."

“Is that really all? I didn’t try too hard to find any stories about you… Hey, Rod! What are you laughing at? I’m not your fan!”

“Ahhh, ahh ...

The girl suddenly realized.

I finally understood what the starlight I had been looking at since I drifted to the ground was.

That was the legend about him that Altria had heard and heard.

Since childhood, I have read the legend of the Goblin Emperor and the Witch as a bedtime story in the stable late into the night.

He named the wooden staff he picked up from the forest the Primordial Fire, and swung his sword at the wild cat in the village, thinking it was a cursed cat, but ended up getting scratched in the face.

I also once fantasized about finding the pilgrimage route of the Fairy Emperor in the Fairy Kingdom when I grew up.

The admiration for the savior, the awe of the king, and even the enthusiasm for close combat were all due to Rhodes' influence.

"Very good……"

Altria felt a surge of delight.

It's really good that I haven't been fighting for some great reason until now.

I became the child of prophecy for my own selfish desires, and it's really great.

I don't need anyone's respect, and I don't intend to ring the bell for anyone.

All of this is for my own ego satisfaction.
