「Great Incident: The Fall of the Dragon」.
Four days from that.
The dragon’s flames, which burned the earth as if they would never go out, died out one by one as the rain began to pour from the sky.
It was raining as if there was a hole in the sky.
So much so that everything becomes chilly.
“Why is it raining like this in late summer… ” .”
“Maybe the airflow became unstable because of the fire.”
“That’s not it. Even the gods are sad.”
“Shh, here he comes.”
The remaining party of the expedition headed east returned to Ludens.
“Look at that, the student council president and his friends are back.”
“You’re all really hurt, right?”
The student council president and other party members who returned four days later looked extremely tired. Everyone had serious injuries and it looked like they needed to be treated as quickly as possible.
But they did not enter the treatment room.
Because I didn’t return to Ludens for treatment.
“… Where is Victor?”
In response to the student council president’s question, Christina, who had been dispatched to meet them, spoke softly.
“… Victor is in the main auditorium. Because it’s raining.”
“…”
Victorica lifted her face and let the pouring rain wet her eyes.
And then he muttered very quietly.
“Yes, because it’s raining.”
Victorica’s group also headed to the main auditorium.
There were a lot of people there, and everyone was wearing dark, gloomy clothes.
5 days.
A man who was a second-year student at Ludens – Time after the death of Viktor Avon.
What was going on in the auditorium was Victor’s funeral.
“… Well, Principal Midas officially gave the title of ‘Hero’ to student Victor Avon, who had praised committee himself while serving as a former executive member and chef of the cooking club.”
The funeral was held in the main auditorium according to relatively solemn proceedings, but everyone in attendance had very gloomy expressions.
“Chef Victor, who lived a more nymph-friendly life than anyone else, no… , Viktornoi. On behalf of the nymphs, Representative Arnoy appoints Victornoy as an honorary nymph…”
The always bright nymphs also sobbed as they decorated flowers on the coffin containing Victor’s body.
Soon, Ariol bursts into tears first.
“Viktornoy didn’t even hit Ariol even if he secretly ate slushies… When I think about it now, I feel very sorry…”
“Ariol, if you keep crying like that, you will evolve into a tearful nymph… ! I promised Viktornoy in my dream that I would send him off with a smiling face today… !”
“But Arnoy is crying too…” ” !”
Even though Arnoy and Ariol had already cried a lot, they burst into tears again.
Soon, nymphs such as Puipui, Poipoi, Hoenoi, and Tenebris also shed tears.
“It’s a death that makes nymphs so sad. Viktornoy, I will remember your nymph-friendly behavior for the rest of my life.”
The headmaster’s wife, the stream nymph Clarice, wipes away her tears with a black handkerchief.
“The great adventures and bravery you showed will become the songs of the fairies and will last forever.”
The story of Viktor facing the dragon’s flames head-on was already famous within Ludens.
Hoenoi, who participated as a correspondent in the newspaper department, created a special feature through photos and articles.
There is no student who doesn’t know what happened in the east field.
Although they did not know the detailed and detailed story, the students mostly knew what happened there and what the results were.
“Yumi, didn’t you say that guy abandoned his comrades and ran away?”
“The student council president’s party chased after him, but they couldn’t chase him because the road was blocked.”
“I heard she’s putting together an extra pursuit party. No matter how much her life is lost, she sells her colleagues who dream of becoming heroes. “Should I also apply for this chase team?”
Ludens’ students’ dream of becoming heroes, no matter how big or small.
It was also normal to be angry and angry at injustice.
“Victor. It would have been nice if we had talked more.”
“I’m proud to have lived in the same era as you.”
Students honored a male student who went one step ahead of them and became a hero.
Everyone loves heroic stories, and their sacrifice warms their hearts.
Then someone whispers softly.
“By the way, wasn’t it customary to cover the body with flowers? But why are they covering the coffin and putting flowers on it? “It’s against Ludens etiquette.”
“It’s against etiquette. “Isn’t Victor, who likes rules, rising from his coffin?”
During life.
Victor was a student who was strict with rules and regulations.
That guy’s funeral is being held against the rules.
Seeing that, the students felt a little uncomfortable.
Because it felt like an insult to the deceased.
Then someone whispers softly.
“… Well, from what I heard, the body was burned so miserably by the dragon’s flame that it was unrecognizable. So, first of all, we are going to have a funeral in an informal manner like that.”
“I kind of understand.”
It was time for everyone to understand.
Someone said.
“There was a rumor like that.”
“Rumors?”
“Someone I know at the health department told me about this. Victor’s body… There was a saying that it disappeared. That may be why they don’t show the inside of the coffin like that.”
“The body is gone? Why?”
“Shh, it’s just a rumor. I don’t know why it disappeared. Students crazy about black magic might have stolen it. Or maybe it was recovered from the Arclight family…”
Questions that were not appropriate for a funeral were spreading through the students’ mouths.
Rumor has it that Victor’s body is missing.
It soon spread uncontrollably, with all sorts of things added, including ‘black magicians’, ‘esoteric groups’, and ‘experiment subjects’, but no one was courageous enough to open the tube and check if it was true.
“…”
When her former fiancé, Victorica, dressed in her mourning clothes, looked at the buzzing students, they all fell silent.
* * *
This is the treatment room.
The student council president, Victorica, was lying on her bed as if her eyes were spinning.
The ceiling rotates.
The world seems to be spinning.
This and that didn’t feel real.
If I closed my eyes, it felt like everything would go back to normal as if nothing had happened.
“… It still doesn’t feel real.”
A funeral.
Everything felt like a dream, and Victorica felt more hazy than sad.
When I close and open my eyes, everything returns like a dream … As always, it felt like someone would call her name bluntly, “Victorica.”
“Victorica.”
Student president Victorica stood up at the name she heard at that time.
Then, someone opens the door to the treatment room and appears.
“Victoria, it looks like the treatment is roughly over.”
The other person is another self.
It was a veteran Victorica.
“Have you eaten yet? You didn’t even touch her. “First of all, I like to eat something.”
“…”
Already four days.
Little Victoria didn’t feel like drinking even a sip of water. Veteran Victorica, who was looking at the scene, added a word.
“First of all, you have to eat well to survive. It’s not that I don’t know how you feel. “No matter how depressed you are, nothing will get better.”
“… You are cold-hearted. “It’s different from me.”
“I’m not being cold-hearted. I just have a little more experience because I went through it first. Because time is gold. Even more so in times like these. “I’m telling this story because I already regret it.”
“Time is money…”
It was a story that someone must have told.
Thanks to this, little Victoria was able to come to her senses.
“Yes, you are right. There is no time to be sad. I don’t have time to stay here like this. I have to chase Yumi. Still, nothing is over. Is a follow-up chase team being formed?”
Yumi.
She doesn’t know what will happen if she loses her ‘crown’ to a woman she doesn’t know.
“Really, this is not the time to be like this.”
Slurp.
Little Victoria got up from her bed.
Of course, veteran Victorica slightly dissuaded her other self.
“The temple was destroyed by a volcanic eruption and the road collapsed. You can’t enter through normal means. It’s going to be a long-term chase from now on anyway. “Right now, my job is to recover my stamina.”
“…”
Little Victoria did not answer.
I just turn my head again and look at the window and lie down.
Rumbling.
Tears are flowing down my cheeks.
After so many years, it felt like we were finally getting to know each other.
It seemed like I was finally getting better, but now it’s like this.
‘… Now that I think about it, I had a lot of time. Why did we live our lives thinking that there would naturally be tomorrow?’
Zech.
Veteran Victorica said to Victorica, who curled her body like a shrimp.
“More than that, I heard a disturbing sound coming from the funeral home.”
“…”
“The rumor was that Victor’s body had disappeared. “Both you and I returned to the academy today, so I don’t know what’s going on, but it would be good to find out.”
Rumors.
I knew about that story because the student council president, Victorika, was also listening to it.
Because I heard the students whispering.
“… I heard it too. If the rumor was true, there would have been a substitute in the coffin today. The academy may have been trying to resolve the matter without disclosing it. “Is this the principal’s idea?”
“Maybe so. “For more details, we will have to open the coffin and examine its condition to know for sure.”
“… “I can’t do it.”
Victorica still couldn’t believe that Victor had left.
It felt like someone would open that door at any moment and come in and talk to me.
In the meantime, open the coffin and check what happened to Victor.
It was an impossible story.
I really feel like we’re going to have to admit that Victor is dead.
I feel like I will never be able to come back.
“… “I can’t do it.”
“… Okay. “I guess so.”
Veteran Victorica also understood that feeling, so she decided not to talk about this anymore.
First of all, it would be better to give yourself time to compose yourself.
Grumbling.
At that time, someone came into the treatment room.
It was Enio, the woman dressed in black.
“Victor’s body is missing. I am sure because I have seen it with my own eyes. What’s in the coffin right now is fake. I also talked to the principal. “I think it was stolen.”
“…”
Little Victoria closed her mouth.
It was a complicated feeling in many ways.
Then she squeezed out what little energy she had left and opened her lips.
“… Why?”
Death is rest.
Only by following the correct funeral rituals can a person rest in peace.
“… Why?”
However, she took Victor’s body and made it impossible for her to rest.
Soon the veteran Victorica spoke, running her palm down from her forehead to her nose.
“Maybe someone stole it to manufacture demons. Honestly, I didn’t want to even think about this, but I couldn’t think of anything else.”
“Mine?”
Veteran Victorica answered Enio’s question.
“When I was still in the second semester of my second year, members of the Church of Genesis stole the corpses of heroes and turned them into demons. “The stronger the body, the stronger the demon is created.”
Zech.
Little Victoria stood up.
“… If that’s really the case, you should get it back. So that he can rest at least a little comfortably… That guy, now that I think about it, he has never rested. If you can’t rest in this situation…”
In Victoria’s opinion, Victor was always busy.
When she thought that she would not be able to rest after being exploited by such a man even after his death, she felt extremely sad and at the same time, an indescribable anger arose.
“We have to chase down the heretics. “So that Victor can get some rest.”
However, Victoria did not know where the members of the Changseism Church were.
Of course, she knew who she would know.
So after roughly completing her treatment, she started walking right away.
Dungeon.
There is someone that Victorica’s group is trying to meet.
“Sister Therese, I heard that you and Nokio of the Genesis Church were classmates in the Holy Emperor 13. Since you’re an interrogator, you’re probably good at chasing things down. If it’s an old classmate, it will be easier to chase after him.”
