I Became the Snow Woman I Made

48 – Snow and the Redeemer (4)

Awkward silence.

hahahahahoho- Only the sound of spoon-slicing and laughter from the other guests could be heard.

The two tables in the corner were like a basement, far from the bright world.

“Quillière.”

As I was chewing on the suffocating atmosphere, Nell stabbed her in the arm.

“He’s flirting with you.”

I glanced sideways at her words.

The Black Knight, Chandra Pale. The repairs had been completed before I knew it, and the black armor was clean and shiny.

The helmeted head was turned toward me.

His head, which seemed to be fixed and motionless, was so gloomy. I answered quietly without showing any agitation.

“Never mind.”

“Is it okay? It seems like he’s going crazy just looking at you.”

Nell expressed her concern, then mumbled as he glared across her.

“Ah. Well, there are all those communication difficulties.”

It was a low voice for fear of being overheard.

It was a wise gossip to see if there was anything I felt after fighting once. But you shouldn’t discuss communication problems.

“·······.”

······No, me too.

At that time, an employee approached as if to evoke the atmosphere.

“I’ll take your order! What would you like?”

Looking around us, we asked, and Cigna, who was drooling, decided first.

“I’ll ask for ‘smoked whole tuna’!”

“What is delicious?”

Unlike her lively appearance, Nell asked rather cheekily.

The employee grinned as if he was familiar with the truth.

“Personally, I recommend ‘Cheongindan Aecho Slash Jeon’ or ‘Stir-fried Dalmaji Tree Bamboo Shoots and Perilla Sesame’.”

“Why?”

“Both are made with rare ingredients, so I don’t eat them often. It’s been a while since I’ve been here.”

“… Oh.”

Nell’s mouth opened slightly.

Her ears twitched.

“Is it love for a thousand people or something… No, just give me both!”

“Confirmed.”

The smiling employee looked at me at the end.

I quickly skimmed through the menu.

This place seemed to sell everything from regular dishes to desserts and alcohol.

In many ways, it seemed to be a rare advanced restaurant in this era. My cold lips were sweet.

“Budberry sherbet.”

“Yes”

I don’t really need to fill my stomach, so heavy food is not recommended.

After ordering dessert, the waitress checked and headed to the table across the street.

“Sorry for the delay. I’ll double check your order. This girl is…”

“It’s apple pie!”

“Okay. Then this person… Over there, could you take off your helmet?”

“·······.”

Chandrafale remained silent.

The employee who had a snowball fight with him came back sick.

Still, it was a more peaceful development than I thought.

“Yes.”

Even the dark knights of the world don’t mess around even in restaurants.

When I let out a sigh of relief, my bangs cumbersomely covered my eyes. It was the moment when he raised his hand to clear his eyes.

“!”

The flinching black knight jumped to his feet.

His heavy armor stirred and made a noise, and all eyes were on him.

“… Huh?”

Did you think I was attacking you?

Another meaning of silence flowed.

He stood there awkwardly, then confidently said that he thought it was a good thing.

“Follow me.”

“What?”

“Compete for s*x. A woman who doesn’t know what it is.”

His eyes were hidden behind the helmet, but he was clearly looking at me.

It was a very shameless act.

However, it was Chandra Fail-like.

I hoped it would pass peacefully.

Of course, there was no reason for me to accept it, so I chilled my brain.

“No.”

“What?”

“What are grown men doing? This is a restaurant.”

Even though he had a very sick personality, he was like my precious child…

A sincere admonition came out spontaneously.

Chandrapale stood motionless like a doll.

It seemed like he was repeating my words, but I felt a gloomy aura, perhaps an illusion.

The bleak voice proved that it was not an illusion.

“…I see. Then it can’t be helped.”

His hand touched the scabbard.

Red hostility bloomed.

Oops.

Paley shouted as I prepared the barrier and Nell was about to step out.

“No thanks! Stop it, mister!”

Standing in the middle of her as if mediating, she persuaded him with a bewilderment.

“You’re right. You can’t do this in a restaurant.”

“…Get out of the way.”

“Old man!”

I still don’t know who she is or why she hangs out with Chandra Pale.

Still, if you look at him, he must be a precious partner.

Stubborn irritation came up because I didn’t listen to you like stubbornness.

I vomited it out in a cool tone with that feeling.

“You don’t know Eunwon?”

The glance at Paley fell back on me.

I continued without avoiding it.

“Black disaster. Without me, you would have been killed by him. But still point your sword at me.”

As I glared at it, my retinas were stained blue.

Watch the winter. Perhaps because he was in a half-angry state, his magic wriggled.

“·······.”

The cold airflow froze the hall like an ice age.

The black knight, who had been standing tall and enduring my gaze, spat out nonchalantly.

“That’s what it was.”

“…What.”

It was a rather shocking answer.

However, there was a clear will.

“Die by a disaster. I would have pointed my sword at him without knowing the outcome. He was a monster. The second strongest as far as I know.”

His chin twitched slightly upward.

He looked like he was scanning the air as if he were looking back at his memories.

“I could have died in high spirits. I’ve been chasing monsters all my life, so that’s what I hoped for.”

The moment the gloomy tone subsided, he swung at me.

“You are the one who interrupted that. Quillier, who defeated the disaster in front of me and established himself as the ‘strongest monster’. It is you.”

“······!”

The dark voice of the black knight indifferently covered the hall.

Nel and Signa hardened their expressions as if they were ridiculous. He concluded

“You’re not going to take that responsibility.”

“Responsibility.”

“Take responsibility and try to kill me.”

Unknown silence came.

Paley, who had been breathing heavily in silence, shouted.

“What the hell are you talking about!”

The watery eyes shimmered.

“Why are you trying to die! Why the hell. What does that mean!”

“Don’t interfere.”

Chandra Pale didn’t even look back at her screaming. She just stared at me as if she wanted an answer.

At best, he was honest, and at worst, he was a foolish single-minded general.

I understood his disposition to some extent.

A little bit.

I was the one who created you that way, so I might have to take some responsibility as you said.

But… I couldn’t help but feel unnecessarily angry.

“Chandra Pale.”

Her mouth tightened and she glared at him.

Even if no one else knows, I can’t avoid you. But if you can change, I want you to change.

He raised the corner of his mouth with all his might and made a cold sneer.

She stabbed his lungs with cold emotion.

“You became a monster yourself while chasing a monster.”

“·······.”

My gaze collided with his in the air.

A chill that reacted to my rage spread all around me. The guests were amazed, and Paley and Cigna shuddered as they took turns looking at the two of us.

“Hey, there. Quilière…”

Nell also seemed nervous and wanted to stop me.

Certainly she deserved it.

Since you know the power of the black knight better than anyone else, you must have judged me to be dangerous.

“… Ha.”

That, again, was unnecessarily irritating.

At most, all I can do is say these words.

I, who created you, is living apart as a snow woman.

From noble mtl dot com

You are floundering in contradiction with that great power.

Inadvertently, a raspy tone squeezed through my lips.

“Chandra Pale.”

The second time I called his name.

“Tell me.”

“Who gave you that power?”

“…What?”

His helmet twitched as if tilting.

Does he even know what the source of his immense power is?

“You know.”

Cold cynicism.

No one cared about the pervasive chill around. As if to see more than that, he glanced at my coldly toned lips.

“······Quillière.”

For the first time, doubts arose in the voice of the black knight.

It was the moment he opened his mouth again.

The lively voice swept the airflow around like a wave.

“You’ve waited a long time! The dish you ordered is here…?”

The clear vocalizations faded and soon subsided awkwardly.

When the employee tilted his head, we looked away and the atmosphere relaxed.

Each other’s camps were completely divided.

I wiped my eyes as if to reprimand myself for being unresponsive.

Then I looked around with a question mark.

“What’s wrong?”

The table was shaking.

Cigna’s whole body shuddered almost at the level of vibration, and Nel was also frozen with his fangs exposed.

To my question, the two sheep who had fallen into another world did not answer.

“·······?”

I blinked and looked out the window.

Thin snowflakes flew.

It seemed to take longer than expected.

By the time I came out, the sun had already set. We walked down a dark street with few people.

“Isn’t he following?”

“Sure.”

I glanced behind me at Nell’s words.

Chandra Pale was nowhere to be seen. He would have thought that if he was a guy, he would immediately chase him, but it was strange.

“Bastard… I just thought he was crazy, but he was still scared.”

“Fear.”

“Isn’t it because you were scared?”

I thought about a man named Chandra Pale for a moment. I couldn’t think of a scene in which he was afraid.

Signa, who was wary of her back like a paranoid patient, whispered softly.

“You can’t be vigilant. You never know when they’ll attack you…!”

“That’s probably not it.”

She caresses the rapier on her waist.

I said soothingly.

“He’s not the kind of guy to do surprise attacks.”

“Is that… Is that so?”

“Yes. I assure you.”

A guy who lives and dies on her own twisted beliefs.

Cigna sighed, probably relieved by my boastful words.

Then, as a confirmation of today’s shopping, I touched a full bag.

“Then I’m glad… Are you going to Striving now?! Then hurry up. I want to see the children I brought today.”

“Go to your house.”

“I’m getting a room too!”

Cigna laughed and ran forward.

It was an enviable talent to be able to be so happy with just one thing.

“… Haa.”

I sighed and walked alongside Nell.

He didn’t have anything to say, so he looked up at the sky and was a bit startled. The moon was up.

It was almost full, so it was soon the full moon.

“Did you hear that rumor?”

Then I heard a whispering voice and turned around.

Two men were talking quietly in front of an alley.

“The unsavory rumors of Chelmsford.”

“······Chelmsford?”

I listened intently.

“At night, strange cries were heard from the tombs where believers were buried. Or, at night, people with suspicious behavior were seen.”

“Somebody with suspicious behavior? What are you talking about?”

“Dead.”

The man with a serious expression continued.

“Anyway, that’s the only one. Rumor has it that there are dead people who are moving around from the Demonic Realm in the west… Walking around the Holy Land.”

“What?! Is that true?”

When the other person let out a terrified cry, the man grinned as if satisfied only then.

“Yeki! You man. How can you live being so naive? Of course, these are ghost stories.”

“Ah… Ah. What else am I saying?”

“Because the mass starts soon. It seems that the bad-tempered storytellers have rolled their weak brains a little. But the subject matter is so boring, I don’t even believe it.”

The man chuckled, and the cool night air drowned out the sound.

I frowned and pondered.

“Dead.”

And the full moon.

It may be mere rumors, but there was one reasonable guess.

The subject of this speculation was a woman… No, the dead.

“···Grandmaster Clavia.”

I know her power.

The ability of the saints who put the moon in their black robes was deeply related to the dead.

If she had served as an ambassador for a long time, she would not have wasted her time.

Her wish is not different from Mahabharata.

But now that I’ve driven out the disaster, how serious and uneasy it must be.

“If she decides to move… Maybe the place.”

Must be Chelmsford, the Holy Land.

There are sanctuaries and tombs lined up there.

She’s probably been using her hand for a while, so it’s already too late to stop it completely.

But if you leave it alone, there will be a big commotion.

People’s screams and resentment will become resentment and restore disaster.

“That’s not okay.”

Maybe I should go to Chelmsford.

I made up my mind and glared at the swelling moon.

Meanwhile, the wandering island right after Quilière left.

Chandra Pale, who had been chasing after using the bathroom as an excuse, met an unexpected opponent and stopped.

If there was any other excuse, the suspicious Paley would follow, so it was a bathroom.

“The Sword Demon.”

The opponent’s tone was muddy and gloomy, like the bottom of mud. However, the black knight faced it calmly and weakly.

“Paladin.”

Crunches – The black and white armor made a loud noise. The black knight asked bleakly.

“Why are you here?”

“No…Was it Chandra Pale?”

Duwade recited his real name with dark heat. Chandrapale’s eyes twitched.

“·······.”

Not too long ago.

When the paladin looked at him, he too saw duwade.

The memory was still clear.

Although he was human with his strength and temperament, he was a monster.

Gigam also clearly announced that he is a strong player.

“Don’t touch him.”

“He? ······ Ah.”

The black knight realized.

Judging by the circumstances, there was only one suspect.

“Are you talking about Quilière?”

It was purely a question for confirmation.

However, as if it had touched the evil, Duwade let out a shout.

“Don’t use his name carelessly!”

A fierce wrath that resembles a gale.

The leaked energy raised dust and shook the leaves.

But the black knight didn’t budge. Rather, he twisted his lips gloomily.

“You really shouldn’t force your faith on me. I don’t care what you think of her.”

“…Doesn’t he know who he is?”

“In the same way, the identity of the woman is not important to me. She is the strongest monster, and the only thing that matters is whether I can cut her down.”

‘Forcing Faith’, ‘The Woman’, ‘The Monster’, ‘Veda’·······.

There were as many as four remarks that were extremely offensive.

The paladin’s fury boiled over, and he felt his mind go giddy.

The spirit that had been spewing out steadily subsided.

Chandrapale stood out, and Duwade muttered lowly.

“······Sword Demon. Do you know why the heavenly gods disappeared?”

It was a bit out of the blue.

The black knight replied calmly.

“I don’t know.”

“Then do you know why Quilière came back?”

“I don’t know. She left her too.”

“Then, do you know why the returned Master Quilière does not reveal his true identity?”

The core emotion took shape when he spit out the last question.

Even though a disturbing atmosphere enveloped him, the black knight didn’t care.

Because of that.

“I don’t know.”

I threw up casually.

It was a word that ignited the fuse and cut off the last remaining reason.

“—It’s because of you!”

The paladin was furious as if it were about to explode.

“It’s because of scumbags like you! Garbage that’s no bigger than filth left because it was ruinous, and even those worms came back because they were children!”

“·······.”

“However, the world remains the same. Disasters are born, scoundrels riot, cancerous masses take over! Can you fathom his feelings?! Can you see his disappointment and lamentable contempt!”

It was a lamentable transcendental interpretation.

If there was a person involved, he would have been horrified at what nonsense he was talking about. However, Quilière was not here, and Duwade’s words came to an end.

“Only him, Master Quilière, has returned! It must be because he is the most merciful and caring of his creatures. And yet, you, ungrateful, dare to point your sword at him!”

Thunder of holy power like a storm raged.

After completing the paradox, Duwade grabbed his mace and released his hostility. However, he did not know much about the man named Chandra Pale.

“… Hmm.”

Paladins are cheap.

Convinced that he was a great person no matter what, his sense of selflessness grew stronger.

Of course, the target was Quilière, not Paladin.

Duwade, who suddenly noticed that, raised his mace. He was no longer hostile.

A ghastly voice flowed out as the full blown murder oppressed the senses.

“Paladin.”

Cheekduck- As soon as he pronounced it, the black helmet snapped.

The dark knight muttered as if he couldn’t understand it or was really puzzled.

“Can you beat me?”
