[Aaron Side Story Episode 45]

6. Beyond the void (1)

* * *

The light on the bookshelf is dimmed.

Aaron removed his raised hand.

“…”

I blankly stared at the open book.

The bookshelf gave off no luster.

Again Aaron put his hand on the bookshelf.

Hoping for more hidden memories.

It won’t end like this.

He has spent eternity there.

Clues suggesting another truth may remain in that memory.

but it doesn’t shine

No matter how much I concentrated, no light came from the bookshelf.

“It is over.”

Yunet said.

Aaron’s voice rang hollow.

“Are you done?”

“yes. This is the end of Aaron’s memories of spending time in Luanan.”

“Is there… no more?”

“That’s right.”

The silver-haired witch confirmed.

End with this.

“Thank you, Aaron. Thank you for your cooperation in my work. With this, Aaron’s travelogue comes to an end. Just…”

Yurnet continued.

“I feel like I need to clear things up a bit. It seems that Aaron’s memory was confused at that time.”

“I… I remember…”

Aaron murmured.

Luanan, a special dimension where time passes slowly.

The young man met his master there and realized his karma.

However, karma is an imperfect force that accompanies mental collapse.

With the help of the teacher, the young man overcame that and obtained a complete karma, and escaped from there to join the party to save his brother.

‘Master’s help.’

Yes.

The boy helped Aaron.

If it wasn’t for the teacher, Aaron couldn’t escape despair.

‘I fought with the red shadow.’

to keep the light of the heart.

To gain the strength to save your comrades.

But…

“Aaron, let me ask you one thing.”

Yunet said.

“You fought fiercely against the red shadow. It is probably an inner hallucination in which Aaron’s desire for power is embodied. And Lord Aaron defeated the red shadow and was freed from that desire.”

Yunet’s words continued.

“If you interpret it as a superficial story.”

“Are you saying that there are… other interpretations?”

“Whoops. It’s not much different. It’s just that there are a few hidden facts. Therefore, Aaron.”

Yurnet’s gaze was fixed.

“Who was the last one you stabbed with a spear?”

“It’s…”

A red shadow.

Aaron pierced his heart to free himself from his wandering thoughts.

Is it really so?

“Don’t you already know the correct answer, Aaron?”

Yurnet decided.

there’s no way you wouldn’t know

If you don’t know, it’s a run away to avoid the truth.

“…”

Aaron staggered to his feet.

All eyes were focused on those sitting in the chairs.

Takes a few steps like a ghost walking.

for a while too.

“It was me.”

The light went out of Aaron’s eyes.

dump.

Aaron knelt on the ground.

I hear it.

I heard it only now

“I will curse you for the rest of my life.”

The voice of the shadow that cursed himself right before he died.

“You will suffer. despair Be frustrated.”

The figure of someone hidden in the red shadow is revealed.

“Take my curse forever.”

The moment he dies.

The moment the extinction of existence was confirmed, he was cursing Aaron.

He was praying for disaster, knowing that one day Aaron would learn the truth.

it turns out

How much you hide your sins will eventually come out.

It is impossible to escape.

“Did I kill Master?”

Aaron spread his hands.

feel the touch

That feeling when you stab a spear.

The refreshing feeling of twisting the spear shaft and inserting the spear blade deep into the heart and absorbing existence.

‘What is my memory?’

Is it because you don’t know?

you couldn’t help it?

‘can not believe it.’

Humans are animals of self-justification.

You can hide any facts that are unfavorable to you.

You can fool even your own mind.

Aaron at the time might have known.

The identity of the red shadow.

But it didn’t stop knowing.

to live for yourself.

Because I wanted to live.

It may have been because he wanted to gain strength by absorbing the opponent, so he didn’t stop even though he knew it.

After the incident, you can put the reason behind it.

It was because the teacher changed his memory and perception.

So it’s not your fault.

Can you even believe that?

In fact, what if the master didn’t touch the memory?

What if it was done by pure will?

At that time, Aaron had gone mad.

He was almost eaten by the red shadow and became more than half a ghost.

He might have acted differently while saying that he would be eaten, killed, or become Master’s new vessel.

I can not know.

can not believe it.

can’t believe anything

“Haha.”

Aaron fell to his knees.

“Nothing…”

I don’t know.

Only two things are certain.

The feeling of piercing the heart that clearly remained in the hand.

And no matter how much I think about it, the face and name of the teacher that cannot come to mind.

[It is the death of existence itself. The fact that it existed in space. That information itself disappears.]

The therapist’s voice comes to mind.

she asked Aaron.

The teacher said it was dangerous and entrusted the boy to himself.

[I don’t die right away. live for a while It will look fine even to others.]

The teacher’s words came to mind.

The boy’s voice was mixed with a heavy noise like the sound of a machine, so it was impossible to distinguish his identity.

[Slowly forgotten. And then it disappears altogether. People in the world will not even know that you existed.]

Even if it is a strong bond.

It becomes meaningless in the face of the disappearance of existence.

Even the promise that I will come to see you when everything is over.

Also thanks to the teacher.

Forgot to clean clean.

Without knowing the master’s name, voice, or figure.

live carelessly

‘why.’

Didn’t know anything until now

Have you lived a fine life as if you were calm?

‘Since then, Master hasn’t said anything.’

The boy disappeared with the words to ask for my back.

I don’t know what happened after that.

Finally, Aaron and the group saved Han, but at that time, Aaron completely forgot his teacher’s work.

Didn’t find it.

I lost interest.

No, I didn’t even know who it was.

“…”

I tried to call the boy’s name.

No words came out.

I can not know.

His name wouldn’t have been Aaron Delcurd.

He must have changed his last name to follow Master’s will.

why did it happen again?

“How… did you know?”

Aaron’s question.

Yurnet replied.

“Since long ago, whenever I saw you, I felt a very subtle sense of incongruity. It took more time than that to realize the identity of the sense of incongruity.”

“Do you… know Master’s name?”

“We don’t know either. I can’t remember the name or the look. I only know one thing. That he was our colleague in the past.”

There is only one reason why they are here.

It was to recover a comrade who had fallen into oblivion.

“Aaron, I need your cooperation. to get him back.”

“What kind of cooperation are you asking me to do? i killed I am…”

“Yes. You killed that man.”

man’s low voice.

It was the Lydigion.

“It wasn’t just about killing it, it was completely annihilating it.”

“…”

“Me too. Every time I see you, I feel a strange sense of incongruity. It was hard to deal with.”

Of course.

The fake killed the real one and took its place.

“So you intend to lie down there?”

Lydigion revealed this and said.

“Are you going to embarrass that man by lying there like garbage and denying yourself endlessly?”

“I… killed your colleague…”

“Killed? How is that? Is dying a big deal?”

Aaron turned around.

“After all, warriors are a race that lives to die. What matters is not death. how did you die what did you die for Did he fulfill his will and die?”

A sharp light flashed in Lydegion’s eyes.

“Only you can prove it. Only you can testify and prove the man’s life. We came here hoping for that.”

“…”

“Rise up, strong man.”

clap.

Lidigion stood up in his seat.

“Is your will, which has not been broken even in eternity, collapsed here?”

“I…”

“Tell us. How he lived and how he died.”

Aaron’s eyes blurred.

“Rise up, Aaron. It is not over.”

“My memory is over. There is nothing more to show or say.”

Memories of the boy have left in the river of oblivion.

He also unlocked all the secrets hidden deep inside.

There was nothing Aaron could say.

“Your memory is over, but something remains.”

Aaron looked at Yurnet.

She held out her hand to Aaron.

“Come on, take my hand.”

A small white hand reached out.

Aaron reached out his hand, but couldn’t bear to touch it.

“Wake up, Aaron.”

Siris said.

“Show us the courage of your master.”

“Courage….”

“Let us honor the life of your teacher, who was resolute in the face of oblivion and never lost his composure even in despair.”

“If it ends here, it is a sword that is neither here nor there.”

Nihaku also added a comment.

“That senior didn’t back down like this. When it was the hardest, I was willing to walk forward as if it was nothing.”

Didn’t back down.

under any harsh circumstances.

Could it be because you don’t have a heart?

‘no.’

Aaron remembered the end of the boy.

The back of her as she walked out as if nothing was wrong.

Even though the boy knew that he was about to disappear, he calmly went into the darkness without telling anyone.

“…”

Now Aaron can’t remember the boy’s name.

face and voice.

I was able to barely know the fact that ‘there was such a person’.

“Maybe I am? My memory is over and I don’t know anything now.”

“No, Aaron. His traces are still there.”

where?

Aaron looked at Yournet with bewildered eyes.

“You hold the key. So please wake up, Aaron. We need your courage.”

My hands are shaking.

does it remain

what to do

What if the worst truth is revealed?

Aaron may collapse.

Nevertheless, Aaron held onto Yurnet’s hand.

I endured and endured and stood up.

“What can I do?”

“Remember me.”

Yurnet laughed softly.

remember?

Aaron’s memory is over.

“It is not your memory.”

Yurnet shook her head.

“Please remember him.”

“…!”

“There is, obviously. in Aaron’s mind. He is gone, but the traces of his dreams are not gone.”

“Is it in my mind?”

“You can do it. Because…”

Yurnet said singly.

“karma is the ability to turn dreams into reality and fantasies into truth at the cost of time. Would it be possible for you? any hope. Miracles that seem impossible. So it was possible.”

“….”

“Only you have fulfilled his wish.”

I held the hands of Aaron from Euronet.

“Now show me. his appearance.”

“I…”

“It’s okay. It’s okay.”

I could feel the warmth of the hand holding it.

can i do it

Is it possible for Aaron to bring back memories that have disappeared into oblivion?

‘Master.’

Aaron’s eyes lit up.

We have to move on.

just like his master did.

Aaron politely let go of Yurnet’s hand.

Then I looked straight ahead.

All I could see were bookshelves and rows of books.

through.

The landscape began to change completely.

The appearance of a library full of books and bookshelves disappears.

Shadows swayed everywhere, covering the world with new colors.

Aaron held out his hand.

Bassrock.

Fallen leaves floating in the air were caught.

This is the scene already at that time.

Before they knew it, they were standing on a plain at sunset.

And it looks.

far away

Someone’s back was reflected.

The boy’s back was visible through the orange grass.

The Wind Blows.

Originally, it was a place where the wind did not blow.

The boy stood still as the grass was pushed and fell.

“…”

Lips do not move.

Only meaningless sounds linger in my mouth.

I can’t name the boy

who the boy was

How he lived and how he died.

Aaron bit his lip hard.

The fishy taste of blood.

Pain awakens the mind.

Rescue and rescue the memories of a boy who was deeply immersed in the swamp of oblivion.

Like putting a broken jigsaw puzzle together.

So at last Aaron called the boy by his name.

Muden Nidelk.

At that moment the door opened.
