Episode 158

“It’s pretty~”

“It’s blue… huh? Where have you seen that light before?”

“where? hmm… I don’t remember anything in particular… ah… … .”

As the students talked to each other, they realized that the blue light emitted by the pillar of light was somehow familiar.

And then I remembered where I had seen that familiar light.

“Oh, is that… In the cave where the dragon was… It’s not that blue ore I saw… … ?”

“ah… … .”

The students exhaled at the same time.

The stone they see is a blue ore that was scattered along the road to the dragon.

I didn’t notice it until it started glowing because it just looked like grayish-brown metal, but I could see it when it glowed blue.

Moreover, Mika did not know about this ore.

‘What I don’t know is… This stone doesn’t seem to be helpful in assassinations.’

Mika seemed to regret something, but soon corrected his mistake by squinting his eyes.

‘I’m no longer an assassin. ‘You don’t need to think about that.’

Perhaps it was the first time in a long time that she had picked up a knife to seriously cut someone down, but her mind was filled with only information about assassination.

As everyone was looking at the pillar with their own thoughts, the pillar that was emitting blue light soon gradually turned into blue particles and began to gather like clouds in the air.

“right… wow! Awesome!”

“It’s beautiful.”

“Hehe! Cool, right? But it doesn’t end like this~!”

“Mary, you act like you know everything, but you didn’t know that the ore in the cave was the material for the pillar.”

“that… that!”

Soon, the particles that were pillars gathered in the air began to flow like a river among the people gathered there.

Just as a tree spreads its roots, it flows through people.

The sight was enough to surprise even Ray, who had already seen it once.

“What on earth does it work?”

“The raw material for that pillar just now is an ore called . When this ore touches magical power, it emits a blue light like this, but when the magical power level reaches the limit, it changes into powder like this. Each of those powders is a vessel that can contain magical power, so… … .”

Laura said she would demonstrate and placed her hand on the flowing light particles.

Then, the particles of light settled onto Laura’s small hands.

“You can collect or unite. “You know what that means, right?”

“okay. Can you make a magic circle with this? Like Jin drawing a magic circle with water?”

“okay. And if I inject additional magical power into it, the magic circle of carved on the pillar will be activated. In other words, the process of injecting magical power and creating a magic circle must be done twice. “It’s a double process.”

“It’s complicated.”

“These days, all the magic tools that seem to be selling well go through this process. “More than that, you’re not planning on selling that stone just because you saw it in Arag Village, are you?”

“ah… “No!”

Ray had a habit of lying.

This is because I know that Laura would definitely not allow me to make money by selling that ore.

But guess what!

Isn’t it profitable to do something if it makes money?

“I tell you in advance, [Tiarat] doesn’t make money.”

“yes?! why?!”

“Seeing you so surprised, I guess I was really planning on selling it… … .”

“that… that. Why can’t I make money?!”

When Ray asked as if it were unfair, Laura shrugged and said it was natural.

“That’s right, that’s how to use the [Tiarat]. It’s a stone that glows when you put magic into it. Other stones are more efficient. Without a magic circle, who would buy something that is only worth an inefficient magic power that emits blue light?”

“nice… “Ugh!”

“Don’t be so disappointed, just watch this. You know that? is not just magic that creates this kind of spectacle.”

“yes… “It was like that.”

Although Ray was a little disappointed, he gazed in fascination at the blue Milky Way flowing like a river.

.

A rather cumbersome magic that requires a metal called [Tiarat] as a medium.

However, when activated, it shows ‘a piece of a happy memory’ to all targets within the magic circle range.

“Isn’t it amazing? That thing is magic. “What on earth is magic that can even read people’s memories?”

“Magic power is still the number one subject of research for many people. “They say it’s God’s gift to humans with only arms and legs.”

“You say that without even thinking it’s a gift from God?”

“of course. “If it weren’t for magic, I would have lived a normal life.”

“I know.”

is a magic that shows the target’s happy memories as hallucinations.

This principle has not been accurately understood, but according to a recent paper, the particles of [Tiarat] react with the memory-storing part of the brain and act on the optic nerve connected to the brain, creating an ‘illusion’.

Only God knows the exact facts.

Anyway, while Ray and Laura were talking in such a technical way, the blue river water had already spread beyond the village and into the forest outside the village.

A beautiful and enchanting sight, looking at it reminded Ray of the first time he and Laura came to this festival.

‘The hallucination I saw at that time was a trip with my family. Even now that I think about it, it was a good trip.’

The hallucination that Ray saw at this festival when he was young was a trip he went on with his family.

Since then, Ray has been left with nothing but cruel and harrowing memories, so this hallucination is probably the same as before.

Convinced of that, Ray was a little hopeful that he would be able to see his parents’ faces once again for the first time in a long time.

“oh! what?”

“It’s coming out!”

“uh? you… … .”

“here is?!”

The voices of hallucinating people could be heard everywhere.

While the hallucination spell is in effect, the entire village is camped out and guarded by knights, so there is no chance of anything special happening during the hallucination spell.

Ray felt relieved and fell into a world of happy memories like the students.

* * *

“Ray. “You’re not good at this, are you?”

“crime… sorry.”

“There’s nothing to be sorry about!”

‘what?’

“Does it suit your taste?”

“yes! very! After all, it is expensive… … .”

“Why are you so desperate… Hehehe!”

‘what… ? Why is this?’

“Ray… “It’s definitely not a devil or anything.”

“… … .”

“just… He’s just a slightly special human being. Ray… … .”

why… Is there a ‘Flur’ in front of me?

“I want to know about Ray Vallière. “Ray’s innocence and goodness are something that only I know.”

‘no way… … .’

“Then I guess we should part ways here…” It’s a little disappointing! “I guess that’s all for today!”

“today?”

“yes? I may have made a mistake… … .”

“no… nothing.”

It has changed.

My happiest memories had changed.

During that brief meal with Fleur… … .

“lie… … .”

I myself know best that this is not the case.

“This can’t be happening.”

‘Could that be possible?’

“me… I am… … .”

‘I don’t even know what to say.’

“ah… iced coffee… … !”

I am also a trash person.

* * *

“… “I can’t see anything.”

There are no happy memories.

That’s the way I’ve lived.

Mika looked at his friends struggling next to him, lost in sweet hallucinations.

I don’t know what they are dreaming about, but these kids definitely have happy memories that they want to recall at any time.

For some reason, the blue particles avoided me.

Like minnows avoiding a predator, they split in front of me and headed to different directions.

Perhaps I am afraid of being eaten by my shadow.

With that in mind, I turned my eyes to Ray.

Ray is also hallucinating.

Even this cruel person definitely has at least one happy memory.

“I envy you… … .”

I approached Ray as if possessed.

This person probably doesn’t even recognize me now anyway.

If you hallucinate like last time, you won’t die, so you won’t try to force yourself to wake up, so you won’t even know I’m approaching.

I slowly approached him.

Then he took his hand and moved it towards my neck.

“Ray. What can kill me… “It’s just you.”

And he used so much force that his hands strangled my neck.

Originally, I was going to enjoy it for about a year more, but I changed my mind.

It’s because I feel like if more time passes like this, I’ll become more reluctant to die.

‘Someone like me shouldn’t be alive… So, if you’re going to die, now that even Ray-sama hasn’t noticed… … .’

“Gagging… Ugh… … !”

His rough, calloused hands strangle my neck.

It seems like Ray is used to this, and even though he’s hallucinating, he raises his nails to strangle me like an instinct.

“Ugh… Did you know? Ray? now… “Are you trying to kill me, your student?”

It may not be audible, but I wanted to say this much.

“Because you are the only one who can kill me, a human scum like me… … !”

must die

A being like me deserves to die.

So it is natural for me to die like this now.

I am… … .

“Wow!”

I let go of Ray’s hand.

At the same time, I fell out of his hand and fell into my seat.

I couldn’t breathe for about 20 seconds.

My body refused to die and let go of his hand.

“haha… “What do I want to do with my life?”

I will definitely regret this day.

You will regret not dying here.

but… … .

“Damn… … .”

I couldn’t die.

* * *

“Hmmmm~ It was a good dream~!”

“mother… … .”

“It was good~!”

Sweet moans were heard from all over the place.

This is the last event of the abundance festival, .

It’s about showing a happy memory to everyone in the area for about 10 minutes.

It is the only widespread hallucination magic permitted in this country, where pleasure from drugs or hallucinations is prohibited by law.

After 10 minutes, everyone stretched out or cried as if they had woken up from a sweet sleep.

Perhaps it was because I saw the face of a family member, friend, or lover.

Each student said they had a sweet dream and boasted about what they had seen.

“It was so good! “It felt like I was back in the old days.”

“I can’t believe I can go to my grandmother’s house where I went when I was 10! “Such wonderful magic!”

“I was happy… … .”

“Mika, what about you? “I guess it wasn’t that bad?”

When the seemingly happy friends asked, Mika decided to just give a vague answer.

“just… My deceased grandfather came out… … .”

“ah… sorry.”

Kia comforted Mika, saying she was sorry.

It was a bit of an extreme excuse, but I wouldn’t ask any more questions, so that would be okay.

Meanwhile, another person whose face is dark even after seeing hallucinations is Ray.

For some reason, even after seeing the happy hallucination, he lowered his head and looked very irritated.

And the direction of that irritation is yourself.

‘Does my happy moment change just because I had a meal with a woman once? Are you crazy?’

The essence of that irritation is self-loathing.

Ray was so disgusted and unbearable that his happy moments had been replaced with nothing more than eating with a woman.

‘under… It looks like what happened to your head after taking a short break. Don’t forget Ray Vallière. You must never forget until you kill them all.’

Forcing yourself to change a happy moment.

Even my unconscious mind is forced to think of my parents.

Ray felt the urge to squeeze his brain just because eating with a woman was a happy moment.

‘I guess it’s already been good enough to forget my parents? He’s very crazy about women. Are you crazy, Ray Vallière?’

He continues to curse at himself and beat himself with the whip.

After continuing like this for about three minutes, Ray was able to look at the students and Laura again.

“Ray, what kind of hallucination did you have? “He looked really bad.”

“it’s nothing. just… “Nothing happened.”

“Umm… “I’m more worried?”

“are you okay. Enjoy the festival more than that. “I’m a little tired now, so I’ll go back.”

“that… Do you want to? go… great job.”

Ray slumped his shoulders and rode the magic circle back to the islands.

The students and Laura just watched Ray’s back pitifully.
