Hunter of the Perished World

[372] Flying the Night of Eternity (4)

“I remember what happened at the Twilight Bridge. ”

“Th…. It’s like a little family play. ”

Jinn nods awkwardly. At that time, they wandered around the forest pretending to be family for a while. Of course it didn’t last long.

“If Leona is my sister. ”

“ ……. ”

“You were my father. ”

“ ……. ”

“I think I was the hardest to bear… Maybe that’s exactly what he wanted. ”

That family play for a while.

Ramfil hated it, but he clearly remembered the overwhelming emotion that it gave him.

“Phew… Yes.”

Gene nods.

“I have four children. ”

I’m not talking about your children.

“One is Ashfile, the vampire hunter. ”

Ashfile. She grew up in Gene’s hands and became a vampire hunter by Gene’s words.

“The other was the witch, Aedyan. ”

Aira’s daughter, Aidan.

He hated Jin, but eventually admitted that he was his father.

“And both. Dead by my hand. ”

Ashfile and Adiann ended up dead at Gene’s hands. As the father who killed his son, Gene lived a miserable life. Gene lays a hand on Ramfil’s shoulder.

“The other two are you and Leona. ”

When Leona heard that, she puckered her head.

“What do you mean, I’m your daughter? ”

“…… Yes, you are. ”

“Funny.”

Leona sticks out her tongue and kicks Gin’s tongue as if she doesn’t want to deal with it.

Gene looks back at Ramfil.

“You are my only son. ”

Ramfil is the only son in Gene’s life. He was the only son I ever saw as a father.

Except for Leona, the only one who didn’t die at Gene’s hands.

That’s it.

“It’s a lot of consolation. To me.”

I remain comforted by the devil who had no choice but to live as a sinner.

Jean, Ramfil, Leona. The journey that began with the three is over.

They were family to each other.

And this last moment.

They all had darkbones from Gene.

So I couldn’t actually do it, not my family.

“Be happy, Ramfil. ”

“I don’t know about happiness. ”

Ramfil looks at Leona and Gin.

“Don’t forget now, I hope. ”

Ramfil holds Gin’s hand from his shoulders, and shares a powerful handshake and a hug.

“Father.”

All farewells.

That concludes it.

It was too short a time to part from all the relationships that had been built up.

It was time to go.

The launch process of the ship itself was truly enormous.

Frey, Ramfil and Charlotte were watching the automatic launch from the top floor of the Arc Palace and were unable to keep their mouths shut when they saw a massive underground launcher rising to the ground outside Moscow’s walls.

“Khaltz… Obviously a waste of time to die. ”

“Do you want to talk nonsense? ”

Frey gives Ramfil a scowl, frightened, and Charlotte looks at it nervously.

Spaceship, it was now a hard to calculate long way to reach its destination long after Earth’s destruction.

Cough!

Spaceship is ready to rise slowly and towards the sky. The only ship worth calling humanity’s last hope was the two that were burning, and there were only three who watched.

“Jin… ”

No one could have predicted this outcome.

This is it.

All the stories that started with Lieutenant Carl’s quest.

This is the end point of all tragedies that have resulted from the White Witch’s escape.

That’s another beginning, another beginning, to fly to a new beginning.

The three of you that remain, go on. I was watching until it became a point in the sky.

The remaining wait for the death of the star on the ground.

And finally, we must prepare for the era of the blooming civilization.

The ship disappears from view, and Charlotte forcefully smiles cheerfully.

No one knows if this is right.

However, everyone’s life that had been entangled for a short while is now just scattered in each other’s direction again.

But I couldn’t bear to see it again.

“Leona…. ”

Frey stares at the trajectory of the sky for an eternity.

The lives of the two witches were separated forever like this.

Goodbye! Frey!]

Frey smiles unbearably at the head-stabbing psychopath.

Things are possible with those two.

Make them happy until the end.

Goodbye! Leona!]

The two witches broke up in their own way to the end.

[Be happy. You must!]

Frey sends the psychic waves towards space, even if he can’t see or feel Leona anymore.

[System stabilization complete.]

[Check for gravitational deviations.]

[Activate Auto Repair and Darkbone Auto Barrier systems.]

[Dark Bone Energy has been dispensed to each core.]

[Spirit Vessel status, good.]

[No Permanent Activity abnormality.]

[Seal Protect stable.]

[Targeting point, AFR09722.]

[Estimated Movement Period Measurement….]

[Estimated 425,617,730Y.]

[Predicting a crisis with Spirit Vessel calculations….]

[No specificity until 8,365,494Y.]

Using the power of the Spirit Vessel, it was surprising to predict even the most distant future crisis.

Carls was right that he didn’t need to learn anything new. Gene had already figured out all the controls of the ship by entering the data, what to repair, and where the institutions of each core were.

The star system to go, the AFR09722 star system, was a group of Earth-like structures whose fifth planet was the target point. Temperature is similar to that of Earth, but there is no life. After arriving there, Gene had to make it livable through terraforming, and until then, his role was to continuously energize and respond to the unpredictable crisis that prevented the ARK from being destroyed.

The AFR star system is an SMC, a star system that exists in the SoMagellan galaxy, and has a distance of roughly 190,000 light years. Kaltz decided that there were no terraforming planets inside the current galaxy, so he had to cross over to another galaxy.

The Dark Bone Energy space flight reaches half a million kilometers an hour. It was a spaceship faster than any other ship that has ever existed, but it did not make it to the edge of the speed of light.

Even using the power of the axle of the spirit vessel, in the end, its speed was limited.

To escape the high gravitational forces of each star system, super-acceleration can reach three million kilometers an hour, but it was dangerous to use at this stage. Once Jean was getting used to the power control of the spirit vessel, she was going to spend time getting used to it.

Simple, honest space navigation that uses perpetual institutions to push the limits of technology into time.

It is fortunate that we do not have to do anything incredible beyond the observable universe, but the overwhelming time remains unchanged.

Most spacecraft systems were automated, but Gene had to stay conscious here to oversee them.

It can be spent through the surface, but it has 420 million years to endure.

It was not a permanent sleep, but Jean was also overwhelmingly long when she was awake, even though most of the time she eventually fell asleep.

Seeing that number, Gene realized how insignificant his decision was. But the more overwhelming a number it is, the calmer Gene gets.

‘400 million years…. ’

If you endure that loneliness.

Will sin vanish?

No, Jean thinks.

Even if you can forget your guilt and lose your mind and not think about it.

As soon as you feel that you have made atonement, sin begins again.

Sin does not go away.

It is always the role of sinners to live with it.

Jin has left the power station and left the bridge for the hibernation chamber. Leona, dressed in clean white, was lying in a hibernation pod and staring at the camp.

“I thought I was gonna die of nausea…. ”

Leona shakes her head at the impact of deflecting gravity. I endured the Darkborn, but I might have dozed off or gotten into trouble under normal circumstances.

“Do I have to go to bed already? ”

Leona smiles sadly at Jean.

“As we left in a hurry, if we don’t go to sleep now… You don’t want to sleep. ”

“ ……. ”

I don’t want to sleep.

I didn’t know what Gene would look like when he opened his eyes again. Why don’t you stay here for a few years without falling asleep?

“I have to spend most of my time in the power room anyway. Rather…. you will be disappointed. ”

“Hmmm… ”

“I’d feel worse if I came all the way here and hibernated because of Seoul. ”

Looking at Leona asleep, the situation would have been unbearable for her to endure for a long and long time. Leona tucks all her clothes into the cabinet, keeping them open on one side.

A hunter’s clothing that will never be worn again.

Perhaps a long time ago, the clothes would have been turned to dust and disappeared.

Long enough for the clothes to become dust.

And longer than that. Leona has no idea what time it is.

I feel sorry for Jean, and I feel sorry for her.

I shook my lips a little.

“How far do I have to go…? ”

190,000 light years, even in light-years of time. Leona doesn’t even know what that number is.

Even a billion units are unfamiliar to Leona. By listening to it, I’m sad that I don’t know the number, and nothing gets better. Gene smiles at Leona like that.

“One night.”

“ ……. ”

“For you, it’s one night. ”

“Treat children…. Don’t… ”

Leona wept, but eventually she didn’t tell me how far Gin had to go. He made a promise he couldn’t keep, and Leona believed it.

But now.

Leona couldn’t help but insist on keeping that promise. I know it’s a promise I can’t keep, and I know how long it’s been bothering Gene.

Leona bites her lip, just lowering her head.

“Mister.”

“Yes.”

“I love you.”

After she said that like she was vomiting. He makes me smile brightly.

“Whenever it’s hard, think about what I’m saying. ”

They’ll be forgotten someday.

I can’t help but love.

People love everything that has an end, because it doesn’t last forever.

There is no reason to love eternal things.

Knowing there’s an end to it, knowing there’s an end to everything.

People love people more, they love them more, and they break up more in order not to grieve in the separation.

Leona eventually takes her hand to Gin’s cheek. Rough skin refers to the time he has lived.

“Forget about me. ”

“ ……. ”

At the end, Leona says so.

“Again, I’ll remind you. ”

Obviously.

It may be difficult to restore the dead to life.

“You said it was a witch who taught you her mind. ”

“Yes… ”

“Then I, the witch, ”

Leona tries to make herself smile as hard as she can.

Ultimately, he smiles poorly with a stupid crying.

“Again…. I’ll let you know.”

“Yes, yes… ”

“I learned it once…. Ugh… Ugh… ”

But finish it.

With a bright smile.

“Learning again… It’ll be easy!”

Say hello, perhaps the last.

Looking at Leona in her frozen sleep, Gene glances down at her.

Leona falls asleep.

From now on, everything that Gin will go through is atonement, but it is also the goal until this sleeping Leona wakes up.

420 million years.

Even the omitted numbers surpassed human estimation.

42561730 years.

In the only time to live alone, Gene looks at the sleeping image of the girl who said she can forget herself.

A girl’s night will be forever for Jin.

It will be a fight to not forget what it looks like during that time.

It will be every day to not greet the girl who woke up again without a face.

Witch.

Witches were fiction, and witches were made by nature.

It’s a being that heaven sent down on earth.

Angel.

You should call it that.

He was the seventh demon to kill an angel.

We must go to the other side of the universe, holding the last angel of the world in our arms for atonement. Gene leaves the hibernation chamber and heads back to the power station.

Check the celestial chart and check the power status.

In this vast, dark locker room, no matter where you look. Gene stares quietly at the other side of the darkness.

He’ll talk to himself, if he can.

“Let’s go.”

That way, you won’t forget what you said.

That way you can say good night to the girl who woke up.

So Gene…

In the time of soliloquy close to infinity, we will live in a world that is only this night.

“Leona…. ”

In order not to forget the name that I’ve already missed, constantly repeating.

Find a morning to welcome somewhere and keep going.

Will go.
