Episode 56. A letter from the past

A savior must prioritize the greater good over his or her own greed.

So, putting last night to shame, the day may come when I have to kill my heart.

So, even if I can’t forget him forever, I may have planned to sort out my feelings someday.

My child. Before I write down what I want to say, let me first tell you the story of my birth.

This moment when I heard the prophecy of my ancestors.

In the heart of the prophet who was preparing to give up, something vaguely called hope began to stir.

As you know, my birth was the result of a bond between my human father and a being called God who came to destroy this land.

Why did she, who came from her mother’s side, choose to be associated with her father? …. I also don’t know exactly her mother’s true feelings.

Even though he was born with half of the blood of a god, his life was no different from that of a human being like his father.

As that sentiment also does not deviate from human standards, my understanding of my mother is bound to be nothing more than speculation.

It is true that the records he left behind have been preserved from tribal to modern times, but most of them are about prophecies.

Among them, the reason why the God of Destruction became connected to humans or why he rejected his mission and ascended to heaven was not written at all.

The reason is not because the records were damaged, but because some of them were not written.

It may have been because the prophet, who was only a human and was born with the power of God, did not dare to try to understand the mind of God.

Nevertheless, you, the last of the latter, are probably worried and weighed down by a sense of duty.

I worry every moment about how to lead the future, and I, who predicted the destruction that led to it, must take responsibility for it.

So, my child, I will use this letter to write down what I felt while looking at her mother.

My thoughts on why my mother landed on this earth, became connected to humans, and left for heaven without completing her mission with her own hands.

“… ….”

The tension gradually builds in silence.

My future self, who was probably feeling the same way, began to turn the pages of the interpreted letter.

My mother passed away when I was very young, so I don’t remember much, but as I gradually grew older and realized my strength, I was able to look back not only on the future, but also on my past.

When I looked back at the past, one of the things I noticed was what my mother who gave birth to me said when I was born.

Yes, at that time, the Apostle of Doom looked down at the life created within his body and said this.

‘This is a child who inherited my blood. Please fulfill the mission given to me……. Teach me how far I should set the standard for the destruction that must be brought to this land.’

“…The standard of destruction?”

The standard for destruction.

Doesn’t destruction mean the end of everything?

If she were the god of destruction, the right answer would be to destroy everything in sight for her destruction.

Just thousands of years later, an era of chaos arrived in this world, and everyone believed that she ascended to the sky, thinking that there was no need for her to destroy it…….

The reason I did not record my mother’s words was because each person’s attitude towards opinions without clear standards is bound to be different.

Someone would say that the world in which all humans like us disappeared was destroyed, and someone would say that the disappearance of not only intelligent beings but even tiny creatures and the places they live in is destruction.< /B>

Then, if there is someone who miraculously survives where everyone has turned to dust……. If there is a chance to rebuild civilization with just those few survivors, can it really be said to have been destroyed?

Just because there are people living in a collapsed world, someone might still see hope. While there are those who see destruction as a result of failing to protect everything, there are also those who treat the past of destruction as nothing by standing up again even after failing.

Then, does not even being given such an opportunity call it destruction? What on earth is that opportunity determined by?

No, in the first place, all such standards were ultimately centered on ‘humans’…. So, if the Mother, the God of Destruction, was bonded with a non-human animal or another intelligent being, would the standard for destruction be determined through them?

Airi’s expression gradually hardened due to the series of unexpected opinions.

Until now, we had only vaguely focused on the chaos that had arrived in the world and on preventing it.

Whether it is the Demon Lord’s army trampling on humanity, whether all humans are blocking the living corpses, or whether the world that dies together with them and is left with nothing will be called destruction….

I came here to prevent anything, and I am just wandering around mindlessly looking for someone who can prevent whatever future comes.

The moment I looked back on the past, I could vaguely feel the warmth my mother gave me as she stroked me.

Even though I don’t remember her, her arms were warm, and the way she stroked me was kind.

It was definitely the truth, and maybe it was an act called love.

Even if my existence was merely to determine the line of the mission of destruction.

As much as she takes it seriously, she would hope that her bloodline, including mine, would take root and live on this land.

As the name of the God of Destruction suggests, he does not just commit destruction, but seeks the answer he has been looking for every moment he watches over future generations.

– Rustle.

A moment of strength in the hands of my future self holding the interpretation of the letter.

In the same way, veins appeared in my hand as I placed my hand on the crystal ball, and cold sweat began to form on its surface.

My child. I did not want my mother’s descendants to fight over these uncertain assumptions.

If they all live their own lives and assume different standards, eventually fights will inevitably arise due to the clash of standards.

On the other hand, if it is the path chosen by the representative to whom everyone has entrusted the future, everyone who supports him will certainly show respect.

From the beginning.

I now realize that this was the intention, starting with gathering the strength of everyone in the tribe.

My child. Ask yourself as you read this letter.

Is the era you live in now truly heading towards destruction?

Yes, not yet.

As he said, it is still just a process and the result has not been reached.

Even if you feel that you are heading towards destruction, if the moment of destruction has not yet been reached, there will be a chance.

At least until the time period he prophesied, there was no such thing as destruction.

Even if something like that did happen, I already had the experience of avoiding it once.

Discussing destruction and salvation without clear standards is called arrogance.

So, if there is still an opportunity, put aside your mission and go on a journey to find that good.

Looking at the world, weighing what everyone says is justice and what you believe in, and assuming the standard you want to accept.

In this way, set your own standards to represent your descendants, and build a world centered on what you must protect in a world full of chaos.

And at every moment, never forget this one thing.

As I am writing this letter, in the process of my descendants putting down roots in this land, and as a result of you reading this letter, in the new present……. The fact that our mother is watching over us and showing us the future of this world.

“… ….”

This is all I want to convey to you through this letter.

Please do not be weighed down by the mission I have inherited, but cherish the opportunity you have now and grow by gradually establishing your will.

Iri Haven.

The sinful ancestors who entrusted their fate to you, my descendants who probably use that name.

“… hehehehe.”

The laughter that comes out after reading the entire letter.

Feeling empathy for the feelings she thought her future self would also feel, Airi looked down at the old sheaf of paper placed next to her crystal ball.

An object that has become dull with the passage of time and has been damaged beyond recognition.

But the sincerity of our ancestors has reached us here at this moment over thousands of years.

“Perhaps, these are not words a prophet would use. “My ancestors.”

It is said to be the correct answer, but the prophet who is supposed to believe that the future he saw will definitely come true emphasizes words that express uncertainty.

No matter how accurate it may have been, doesn’t the fact that it’s mentioned at the end mean that you have no confidence in the words written in this letter?

‘But why is it that I feel relieved by advice based on uncertainty?’

I soon realized why.

What destroys a person who longs for hope may be a standard created by someone other than himself.

So, if you can’t handle the reality that everyone says is hopeless, the right answer would be to turn away from it.

“Yes, ancestor. As you said……. “Maybe we took it too seriously.”

If the time has not yet come to know whether it is right or wrong.

Even now, it may be your mission to throw away the standards created by others and set standards while observing a world that has not yet been destroyed.

That is the attitude that a person who calls themselves a savior should have first.

“God of destruction…. No, the mother of the beginning who engraved Haven’s name on this land.”

Airi, hoping that such a realization would not be wrong, silently prayed to the crystal ball in front of her.

Toward the mother of the beginning, who gives me strength even at this moment and shows me the path toward the future.

“If there is a possibility that the person I want to be with can be reborn as a savior, please reveal the aspects of that future here.”

The prayer was more desperate than ever before, and even more strength was drained away, and the light from the crystal sphere that received that strength began to brighten the dark tent.

Of course, the future is not determined solely by one’s wishes.

In any case, the decision you make after reading the current letter will affect your future choices, and it will only show you what path you will take.

But that alone will be enough to figure out the path to take right away.

If only there was confidence that the future that would lead to it would not be something one would regret.

-hehehe~♡

And, the familiar noise that comes as if in revival to such prayers.

The moment he realized it, Airi felt relieved, but he also began to recall the worry he had forgotten.

-hehehe, is it good to be pricked like this? Or like this?

-Aang~ I like it there~♡♡

I am still in the future, mingling with him and screaming.

Although she clearly thought she had completely completed her actions, her future self was blatantly enjoying her actions with him, just like before.

‘I didn’t commit the crime after drinking, so what on earth would I do with him in the future…’ ….’

No matter how good my relationship with him was, I didn’t want it to be ruined like this.

Of course, if you don’t like this kind of future, you can gradually adjust it. For a moment, I thought about it and tried to be satisfied with the fact that I still have a future with him.

-hehehe, my kids, are you really planning on just bullying mom?

At the sudden sound of an unfamiliar voice, a question appeared on Airi’s face as she stared at the crystal ball.

“… Mom?”

Mom,

My mother passed away a long time ago when I was young. Could it be that Mephisto came in as a joke?

No, there is no sign of her appearing inside this crystal ball.

Since she is also her transcendent, there is a possibility that she will reappear someday, but for now, the future of her being together has been ruled out.

It was not she who appeared here now, but she was ‘another transcendental’ who was already connected to him.

-Now, come here, my babies. It’s time to eat~♡

Tassian Paloi.

A decaying legend that sought to destroy humanity in the past before this world fell into decline.

-Hey, maman… ♡

He put her head under her clothes and made a strange noise.

Likewise, he, who put his head on the other side, also started making the same sound underneath it.

-hehehe, is my daughter delicious?

-I drink it, tsk, tsk~♡♡

“… To?”

What on earth.

Why is he, and not only him, babbling like a baby and sucking her milk on the bed?

Could it be that you went out of your mind after drinking like that time?

Or is it that such an opportunity caused a butterfly effect and produced this result in the distant future?

“…… Why.”

Of course, the opponent is the worst catastrophe that threatens to destroy humanity.

The fact that she fell into this situation probably means that humanity is healthy, but in reality, the distorted future was not something that Airi could accept well.

“If something happens in the future, it keeps happening like this!!”

What kind of future does the prophecy given to him lead to?

Even at this moment, even the decayed legend that seeks to exterminate humanity has come to the point of allowing him his body?

***

After breaking up with Airi.

I followed her prediction written in the note she left behind and headed straight to Tachia’s workshop.

It is to receive the armor, but according to her prophecy, something more important awaits.

“… Oh, are you here?”

But when I arrived there, what I encountered was a horribly collapsed workshop.

And Tacia’s body covered in blood and dust.

“Hey, Mr. Tacia. This window… ….”

In a situation where anyone could see that something serious had happened, I held the spear that flew at me at the scene and expressed my concerns towards Tacia.

What happened here that made the surroundings look like this?

Also, to find out if the ego weapon she had recovered flew towards me.

“Oh, yes. “That window.”

Tachia, who saw that in her eyes, said with a sneer.

“I’ll give you the spear, so make a contract with me.”

It’s definitely something that appeared in Airi’s prophecy.

In a more excited voice than usual.

[When you go to get the armor, the person will make an offer with the weapon you have been missing.]

Yes, this is what was also stated in the first note that Airi gave.

It was just a different form than I thought.

[For whatever reason, be sure to accept her offer from her. Preventing the danger you will face in the future begins with securing that weapon.]

Of course, this spear is worth sacrificing everything except your life.

Regardless of the situation, if the contents of the prophecy are true, I will definitely have to accept Tacia’s proposal at this moment.

“Yes, I will accept it.”

Nevertheless, what I was curious about at this moment was not the conditions for receiving this window.

Egoweapon made of mithril material.

This weapon, which everyone considers precious, means something to her.

“Tachia, what do you want from me?”

Those haggard gazes directed at me after accepting the offer.

The question is whether it contains an emotion called anticipation.
