I Am a Low-Class Aristocrat of a Perishing Country

71 – The Deadly Sinner (3)

On that day, I left the island.

One day, I ordered the construction of a mansion that would be more than enough to fill all the people I love. I will not return until I have mastered the principles of life and reached application.

A wanderer who rides a horse that crosses the horizon several times a day. After a long journey, they arrived at an impoverished village.

In fact, even calling it a village was ambiguous. It was more like a gathering of humans who had escaped the reign while still belonging to the framework of the empire.

“You’ve found a pretty good spot.”

This is an ideal condition. In addition, climbing up and down the nearby mountain, they found a large cavity. This secured a place to search for the truth.

Since then, I have secretly hired people several times to procure books and supplies. The contents were mainly medical books and lab tools.

In the corner, a golden chain, the only one that shines in a dull cavity, flaunts itself.

A well-prepared environment. But the last piece is lacking. In order to pursue the truth of life, there are indispensable fundamental conditions.

Human. It also needs to procure a living human being.

In that sense, the impoverished village under Co was really, really perfect. When the preparations were finished, I went down to the village and said.

“I will send the families of those who make sacrifices to Jedo to take care of them for the rest of their lives.”

“Is that… Really?”

The effect was dramatic. In particular, the elderly and the sick, who had only a few days left to live, committed themselves.

They didn’t want their family to live as mere vagrants and prostitutes.

This was strictly forbidden by imperial law, but I didn’t mind. The privilege to approach the truth exists for me. There is the privilege of immunity to wash away sins and avoid responsibility.

“Ha ha ha!”

I am not wrong. I, I, I must. Can be forgiven Isn’t that a right granted by Astel? It’s my god’s grace I am not a sinner. I can, delaying the timing of detection as much as possible.

[Until there.]

‘Ugh!?’

Whether it’s in the sky or on the ground, or in your head, someone’s thoughts jing jing. sh*t, I’m trying to do something important, but I got in the way…!

[Don’t get caught up in the past. Who is it that defines you?]

‘Justice? What defines me…’

At that time, I suddenly saw an illusion of thin white hair fluttering in front of my eyes. It reminded me of the greenness that dissolves intimacy and uncleanness.

It wasn’t Lorian Peyta. Neither Yernia nor the color of Astelnerca. It’s different from the traces of close friends…

‘Irelp.’

Irelpi Justiha. The light of my salvation I saw for the first time in the darkness of the great void. Naughty woman. First love.

I am not Netion Peace. Neither is Ness. It was the name she had given her, Nefi. That was the me she defined, the me I defined.

[Are you losing your mind?]

‘It’s embarrassing.’

[All you need to know.]

‘Ugh.’

[That said, I won’t be the only one who confesses past sins. See, now is the beginning of the first sin.]

A human line continues with the Great Cavity as its destination. The humans who accepted Netion Peace’s proposal do not hesitate to become sacrifices for exploration. Some might argue that this is a legitimate transaction.

Netionpeace went through the same rationalization process. The unacceptable violation of ethics was buried with power and conventional wisdom. And I masturbated that it was justified.

[This is my first sin. He lost the self he had left in the past.]

‘You, old man…’

I entered the world as an orphan, swept along by the current, and became a male prostitute. I was just a helpless child waiting for the day when I didn’t starve for even one day.

He always spent the night trembling with fear.

I just had to endure being harassed by a woman several times my age.

However, I was genuinely afraid of the people who sometimes buy people from brothels with money.

It was terrifying to see a human being stripped of a human womb and transformed into a beast.

He was immersed in the harsh reality and forgot his past. He erased the past self that hated human trafficking more than anyone else.

It was the first sin to develop malignancy.

[Don’t lose yourself.]

Netty on Peace cut off his will with his last words.

◇

Netionpeace glanced at the scenery outside from time to time. Sometimes a gentle spring breeze blew. There were times when fallen leaves were trodden on, and periods of heavy snow would pass by.

He immersed himself in his research, forgetting even the passage of time. He combined Astell’s remarks with his own research to come up with his erratic performance. He boasted that he was close to the world’s answer.

It was truly a fulfilling day. He is more diligent than any other farmer, and even a renowned scholar would look like a child with no nose. No, it’s an achievement.

“Kuh, ha ha. Yes, was it like that!”

Astel. You said I was the wisest of us. Yeah, that’s great I must be a genius that will never happen again.

I’ll show you soon. The truth I found, the answer to fate. I might have held the clue of immortality in my hands. Who will understand if not me!

What if you realized this at age 20? Nope, not too much Time was running out then. War. Until then, I was busy using my strength to play soldiers. If you started researching a long time ago, the war is half a year long. I might have finished it in one quarter.

“It’s a pity, but this is good as it is.”

It’s a perfect fit.

Even if the brain is old, experience and experience support it. I can reach you. Reach A little more, more, more! The truth of the world that has disappeared beyond the golden light!

In an instant, the image flashed with intense white light.

It was as if an adult had received the experience of gaining enlightenment.

“Yeah! It was like that…”

Gearko, I looked into the world.

“But this might need cross-validation.”

Asseln must still be an outstanding scholar. After a long absence, the time has come for him to venture out into the world. Asselen, if you hear about this achievement, you will surely be surprised. Expectations are high.

Did the system change a lot? How much time has passed? Oops, I need to pay attention to my appearance. It seems like there are a lot of things to prepare for.

In this way, Netion Peace appeared outside the world. He doesn’t even know how he’s changed…

Insanity and stubbornness derived from love shimmered in her ruby-like eyes.

◇

“What’s your business? The Chester knight who drove the family knights to the brink of death?”

“I only imitated Bartlante’s sword a little, but was the report so misrepresented? I couldn’t help it because I blocked the road. Asselin.”

“You…”

A hint of displeasure came through Asselen’s round glasses. Netionpeace noticed it a long time ago and just smirked.

“You’ve been stuck somewhere. A mansion the size of the imperial palace is built and then left empty. No matter what the situation in the imperial palace is, it doesn’t even shine. It’s been 17 years. That’s how long you’ve been missing. You know what? It’s only been one year in the imperial family. I promised to kill you if there is no further news.”

“I wonder if it’s been that long. Somehow, I thought I was old.”

“You’re young though. It’s too much.”

Aselen’s words were not sarcastic. Literally, Netionpis was young. At most, two years had passed since Yernia’s death.

He was too young for his age. It is inevitably accompanied by a sense of alienation.

“I’m chasing after immortality, but this much isn’t enough yet.”

“What?”

“I mean immortality. Why does life have to die? What is breath, and once it goes out, it can’t be reversed. I decided to find the answer and turn it over.”

“You can’t believe that time…!”

“Well, let’s put that aside. Rather than that, Asselen. The reason I came to you is to share the results of my research. I think you’ll understand.”

“Research?”

“The world Astell was looking at. It is the fruit of years of exploring beyond it. Where should I start talking about it? Well, I’ll start with the concept of possibility.”

Netionpeace stood up and swept the bookshelf on the wall with his fingertips. The intention was to find the kind of book you wanted. The one book he picked was a novel that contained stories of imaginary adventures.

“Asseln. What is this?”

“It’s a novel.”

“Yes, it’s a novel. So is this real?”

“If it sounds stupid, stop. It’s just a common creation.”

“No, it could just be a creation.”

“What do you mean?”

The corners of Netionpeace’s mouth trembled slightly. He smiles like an excited child before a big announcement.

“Chainreach phenomenon. You know that, right?”

“A terrible disaster.”

“The creatures that emerge from it are from another dimension, another world. The reason they are all black is due to the wear and tear of their essence due to dimensional resistance. Chainreach proves the existence of an alien world unrelated to ours. Do it. Then how many different worlds are there? One? Two? No, they are infinite like the stars in the universe.”

Netion Peace adds heat and connects the words. Aselen’s blank eyes didn’t care.

“From the concept of infinity and possibility, we can deduce the existence of another world that has the same history as this novel. In other words, we can say that we are observers of the same world as the novel. Similarly, our world and history. In another world, it might be consumed in the same form as a creative work. It could be observed from an intelligent body in another world!”

“What…”

“Astel saw a fragment of the truth, but as a person belonging to the world, he intervened in history too much. If so? The observer is an infinitely free person. There is no choice but to take risks.”

“…”

“The monsters in Chainreach are the same. They change history, but they eventually disappear due to the dimensional resistance received when entering the other world. Besides, just being at the scene of change is a part of history that has already been changed. Chain soldier As a self-purification action to seal the living witnesses of the changed history…”

“Wait, netion piece. Wait.”

“Oh, yes. I talked too much about myself. What do you think?”

“Not at all.”

“Huh?”

“Not at all. Not at all. I didn’t understand. Netionpeace, I have no idea what you want to do now.”

“Um, well. It’s the essence of research over ten years, so I understand that you can’t accept it right away. In other words, if you look at the world from the position of an observer, the efficiency of finding the eternal truth is incomparable… “

“Stop!”

Kooung!

“… Huh?”

Aselen was an intelligent and calm human figure. Even if he was absurd and impatient, he was a man who closed his eyes and thought with cold reason. Then he hits the desk with all his might and gets angry.

It was an embarrassing response for Netion Peace. His pupils rarely trembled.

“What are you doing?”

“Isn’t it the sharing of research results? Better results if the two of us are together…”

“That kind of thing is fine.”

“Asseln? If you know what an inspiring supertheory this is, you must…”

“Netion Peace.”

“Yes.”

“Where did you go first after arriving in the island?”

“Yes, of course.”

“That’s what you mean? I can listen to the not-so-funny theories all night later. But what did you disappear for? Abandoning the imperial palace and neglecting Lorian, what do you want to do?”

“I told you, Asheln.”

“You said?”

“Eternity.”

“Are you serious?”

“Of course. It’s a trivial amount of time compared to the permanent life you’ll enjoy in the future. I just chose this because it’s more efficient.”

It was a netion piece that didn’t even flinch an eyebrow. Asselen opened and closed his mouth several times in response to the calm reply, then sighed.

“…Okay. Let’s talk when your brain cools down a bit. Let’s see Lorian first.”

“Okay. I miss you, Lorian. You’ve been away for too long.”

“Crazy man… You are crazy now.”

Asselne was more foul-mouthed than Bartlante, who was unrelated. She’s a courtesy swear word, so you don’t have to react seriously.

Netion Peace sincerely thought so.

He was just about to open the door and a word from Aselen caught him.

“Come to think of it, Chainreach comes to mind. You haven’t been paying attention to the world for decades.”

“Right.”

“Then it must be the first time I’ve heard about saints and heroes.”

“That’s a grandiose title.”

“It’s grandiose. They’re the ones who close the cracks in Chainreach.”

“Oh, tell me more, Asselen.”

“First of all, a hero is an escort knight of a saintess. To put it shabbyly, she is in charge of simple force. However, a saintess… Handles space. Even closing the closed space. He is a person with abilities beyond the human realm.”

“Hot! What, are you even a god?”

“Well. There are intelligence reports that we will stop by the island soon, so we may run into each other.”

“That’s right…”

The corner of Netionpeace’s mouth drew a special arc. How long has it been since your heart was so excited? I feel like I have an all-purpose key that opens an unknown door right in front of me.

“A saint who handles space… Kuh.”

If space can be closed, is it possible to tear it? Maybe we can observe the cause and effect of the world beyond the torn space.

If that is allowed, you can become an observer that surpasses Astel. Catching the clue to immortality is not a dream either.

“I’m looking forward to it.”
