Surviving a Cruel Fairy Tale - Chapter 49
49 – Act 2. Neverland of Eternity – Barrier Collapse (5)
A feeling like your body is weighed down just by looking at it.
Nothing I’ve seen so far, not even the mother’s tree in Little Red Riding Hood’s forest, which was like that mysterious mass, was like this.
That ignorant mystery is subordinated to someone with a doctor.
“Uweee!!”
Someone couldn’t stand the pressure and ended up scattering vomit on the floor.
At the same time, my mood was a bit bad, but I can understand how you feel. In fact, a giant with an overwhelming presence that made even my knees tremble…….
“…… Is that a baby?”
It has the shape of a baby, but is it correct to describe it as a baby?
Such a mystery.
If you think about what the main fairy tale of Neverland is like, its identity was clear at a glance, but even so, it is too vicious to say that such a monster is an eternal child.
It’s one step away.
Breaking down the barriers, I gradually began to come out, and every time I did, I was choking on the density of mysteries.
…… No method.
All I know is that everything will end like this.
“…… Hook Sunjaaa!!”
Then there is only one thing I can do.
Remember what you did earlier in Little Red Riding Hood Forest.
Unbelievable, overwhelming mysteries were forcibly rushing into my body, and it is a known fact that if I leave it as it is, I will collapse first due to overload.
In that case, release the power and suppress the monster’s steps even a little.
I didn’t have time to prepare anything complicated, so I drew the strongest, yet maximal, figure on my head and put my palms on the ground.
With the appearance of that gigantic baby, what appears to be Peter Pan, the air is full of mystery.
As a result, if only my body can withstand it, the mystery is in a situation where it can be used without limit, and the existence of the strong warrior I saw in the forest before is called back here.
“I’ll buy you some time, so get everyone together and get back!!”
The rocks on the floor are torn apart and put together, and a giant in the form of a tin woodcutter stands.
Even that was dwarfed compared to that gigantic being, and it would be difficult to say that even its strength and power perfectly imitated that of the Tin Woodman, but this was my limit.
“You…… !!”
“I won’t last long.”
Through the story of Little Red Riding Hood, the bowl has become wider.
But still, I was too short to accept the whole mystery that filled this place, and above all, my body couldn’t stand it.
The stone giant rushes at the giant baby, but it is destroyed in an instant with one kick.
After that, the mystery that spread from my body forcibly connects the fragments and restores them again, but it was obvious that it would become a one-sided battle of attrition.
The vision gradually turns red.
Blood running down the corners of the eyes. If so, it was definitely not a runny nose that started to flow from the nose.
“…… Peter!!”
Tinkerbell flew through the sky in this situation and approached it, but her cry did not reach.
Rather, the behavior of the drug-free fighter, who seems to be enjoying freedom to the fullest by swinging her limbs recklessly, has become a disaster that changes the terrain.
“Tsk, everyone retreat! Get on board quickly!! It carries all the scattered children and bounces!!”
“…… Captain! Are you saying you’re going to load those bad guys too?”
“You stupid bastard! Look at that twist! Do you think it would be meaningful to distinguish between friends and family against that?”
Peter Pan is just rampaging.
The word rampage was funny, at least to me it looked like a child playing a joke, but as a result, each action showed destructive power close to an explosion that broke the ground.
“Tinker Bell! Do you have any objection to my decision?”
Hook finally asked a question to Tinker Bell, the general manager of the children, and she looked at the situation in dismay, biting her lower lip and nodding her head.
“…… No problem.”
Even during that time, the golem I created kept repeating itself being destroyed.
I intended to stop it, but it really only slowed down one step, and it kept breaking no matter how many times I made it, and it slowed down the time just a little bit.
I think it will be too late to make everyone run away like this.
The moment I thought so, Tinker Bell shot a pink flash of light into Peter Pan’s face, causing an explosion around him.
“I can’t help it, but I’ll help you for a while.”
I don’t think things will change if she cooperates.
Obviously, Tinker Bell’s strength was overwhelming, but compared to Peter Pan, who broke through that barrier, the gap was so great that she seemed like the difference between her bonfire and fireflies.

Of course, the total amount of mystery won’t decide everything.
But even considering that, the size of the power itself is too large, in fact, even with Tinkerbell’s attack, Peter Pan didn’t blink an eye.
That was the moment.
“Kuhwaaa!!”
A monster of the underground waterway that is said to be attracted by mysteries.
The crocodile, which arrived on this land with the sound of the clock’s hands, rushed furiously at Peter Pan, who seemed to be a mysterious crystal, and bit his ankle.
“Aww!”
It was Peter Pan who made even the seemingly gigantic crocodile smaller, but his teeth seemed to work, and he frowned and began to brush his ankles.
“…… Now! Everyone, move quickly! As soon as you get on board, leave!!”
Thanks to Captain Hook’s shout and Tinkerbell’s supporting shots, people gradually begin to board the ship in perfect order.
It was an unexpected help, but as the crocodile attacked Peter Pan, I lost my reason to hold on as I struggled, so I joined the ranks.
Just after boarding the ship to Captain Hook for the last time, the ship slowly starts moving along the waterway.
In the distance, I could see an unrealistic sight of a crocodile being grabbed by the tail and thrown mercilessly to the ground.
It would be nice if the situation was resolved by leaving like this, but it probably couldn’t be.
Peter Pan set foot on this land, stretching himself as if he had been released at the same time we destroyed the barrier.
If I had to deal with that monster, would there be a way?
Verses, lore and stories of the fairy tale Peter Pan. The concept of a child. The goal of Neverland. I thought of all of those things, but nothing immediately came to mind.
Just one thing.
In a situation where they hadn’t even met Little Red Riding Hood yet, it was easy to see that the problem had become more complicated.
* * *
Just because you’ve passed the worst doesn’t mean everything is resolved.
The group of children and Captain Hook’s pirates were in the middle of a battle that was close to war, although they recklessly came to terms with the sudden disaster.
Captain Hook first looked up and glared at Tinker Bell when he felt like taking a breather.
“You, Tinkerbell, no matter how strong you were, you were hiding a monster like that inside.”
“What? Do not joke.”
“I wish it was a joke. That monster apparently came out of the castle you built.”
Peter Pan was in the realm of changing the world with his very existence.
The mystery emanating from its body did not just stay in power, but eroded the surroundings and even erased the gloomy scenery.
“Isn’t the source of your power also that monster? Did you concede that and boasted that it was a paradise?”
“Wrong.”
At Captain Hook’s rebuke, Tinkerbell shook her head.
“Something went wrong.”
“The priorities are the exact opposite. It wasn’t that Peter Pan was there to create Neverland, but because this was the place to seal Peter Pan, I created a children’s paradise on top of it.”
Seal of Peter Pan?
His eyebrows twitched as if that was a question for Hook as well, and Tinkerbell let out a deep sigh and shook her head.
“This land was a place to seal Peter, and the basement was a barrier to imprison him. Have you ever thought about why there is such a big, labyrinth-like waterway in this Neverland in the first place?”
That definitely seemed odd.
Surely, Neverland on the surface was forming a city, but even if a city had entered, it was strange to have such a large-scale underground waterway.
Overwhelming width and height that even ships can walk around.
It takes too much manpower to build a canal, and more than that, it’s almost unnecessary waste.
“Peter Pan hates water. So, I drew a lot of water around him, added the energy of water, and tied him to the basement of Neverland Castle to complete the final seal.”
Tinkerbell is also the manager of Neverland, but he finished his remarks by saying that he also has a role to maintain and repair the seal of Peter Pan before that.
“…… Then to get rid of him. No, at least what should I do to seal it again?”
“Why are you asking me that? You were the one who broke everything coolly. You idiot? Or have you given up on thinking? If it’s the latter, it has no value as an intelligent body anyway, so why don’t you bite your tongue and die?”
“You… ….”
“Did I say something wrong?”
Captain Hook didn’t know that Peter Pan was sealed there.
However, the aftermath was too great to end with the word “I didn’t know,” So being released from there was obviously a disaster that made no sense even if you estimated it with your own eyes.
Even her mother’s tree, like the essence of mystery seen in Little Red Riding Hood’s forest, is weak compared to it.
Formidable enemies like the Tin Woodman and the Hunter, compared to the violence of pure power, the only thing I felt the moment I saw them was despair.
“…… What is his true identity?”
“A disaster. You could call it a beast that brings destruction, or a deterrent to destruction.”
Tinkerbell continued to elaborate, saying that there are many such disasters in the world.
Only five identified objects.
Each of them has enough power to destroy the world, and they call it an uncontrollable disaster.
“That was completely ruined by a proud captain living somewhere.”
“Would you have known?”
“What if you didn’t know?”
“Aren’t you the one responsible for not properly protecting the subject of being an administrator? I don’t think this situation will end if someone is held accountable now.”
Tinker Bell was furious at those words, but she clenched her teeth and shook her head.
Anyway, the situation has already happened.
The disaster she talks about, the eternal child Peter Pan eventually ran out of the cage and is now trapped in an underground waterway.
At this, she glared at Captain Hook and at me with ferocious eyes, then gritted her teeth.
“…… You too help.”
“Huh?”
“Take responsibility! I’ll admit to my management failure, so you guys should take responsibility for destroying it too!!”
Although Tinkerbell’s words are leaps and bounds, it seemed that there was no other option for this side either.
If such a monster was released, it did not seem that the aftermath would be limited to Neverland, and Captain Hook’s wish was to change Neverland, not to destroy it.
Indeed, Captain Hook nods at her ferocious words, and she reciprocates.
“Good. Disaster Subjugation? Why don’t you try something.”
“Then from now on all of you obey my words. Okay? If you don’t, we’ll throw everything into crocodile rice!”
“I refrain from that.”
“What!? James, you really!!”
After watching the two chatting again for a while, I quietly backed away and went up to the deck.
If the two cooperated, it would not be difficult to meet Little Red Riding Hood, who would have been detained by Tinkerbell.
It’s just a pity that there was a bigger problem than that, but if she was by her side, she wouldn’t feel the same anxiety now.
Let’s be content with that for now.
We decided to meet each other to discuss the future, and first I wanted to meet her and take a break.
