The Only Ending for the Evil Count Pig Is Destruction

280 – Scene 280# Aidan Ruelberta

The floor of the sparring hall, right in front of where Millium was standing, was deeply grooved as if it had been cut by a sharp blade. Not only I but everyone else was overwhelmed by the incredible power of cutting with a wooden sword.

What’s exquisite is that Kyle was only a few centimeters in front of Milliam’s feet.

This must be Kyle’s truth.

What efforts did he make to reach a level that is close to divine? And how hard has he worked? ‘Jealousy’ arose again.

“Milliam. “Why are you suddenly stimulating me?”

Kyle quietly put down his sword and said.

He no longer felt any hostility or fighting spirit. He was just looking at Millium with an expression that was neither smiling nor crying.

“Sorry. Brother.”

And Milliam seemed to have anticipated this situation and bowed her head and apologized to Kyle.

“Actually, I wanted to spa with Jinjin hyung one last time before the surgery. “I really wanted to see my brother, who used to be famous as the ‘Sword Demon of the North.'”

“That…”

“But as expected, the Northern Sword Demon wasn’t just a rumor.”

“…”

“In the end, we never won until the end. Ah, I want to be like my brother someday.”

“Milliam…”

“Of course, unlike my brother, I have a weak body. It’s unlikely, but… Still…”

“…Why?”

“Huh?”

“Milliam. Why do you want to be like me?”

Milliem tilted her head in response to Kyle’s quiet question. The answer didn’t take long.

“Yeah… Your brother is a hero that people praise, right? Build a castle in the north and protect the people of the empire from the cold and monsters… A hero.”

“…”

“And if I become that kind of hero… I thought maybe it could change the perception of our family…”

Could it be that Millium was thinking like that?

The passionate eyes that worried about the future of the family were completely different from the inhumanity seen in Tristan’s past.

“Joy… “Jim won’t be fooled by that guy’s acting.”

Luna, who regards Millium as her arch-enemy, is trying hard to deny reality, but she seems quite embarrassed. Anyone can see that Milliam at this time was a steady and upright youth.

It seems Luna was not the only one who could not hide her embarrassment when she saw Millium like that.

“I’m not a hero or anything. Millium.”

Kyle opened her mouth with a face full of complex emotions.

“I killed too many ‘people’ in the process of protecting the North.”

“Brother? That’s because the demons attacked first.”

“Know. At least it was inevitable for me to survive. If I went back in time, I would have done the same thing. He must have defeated countless demons and constantly swung his sword for the people of the North and Northern Garden.”

Kyle, who was called the hero of the frontier and the sword demon of the North, also had agony. When I saw the worries and suffering that followed the name of a hero, I saw him as a man with the right heart, far from being weak.

At the same time, I wondered if Milliam had such a simple face because such a man was by her side.

“Only… “I just want to say that I am not a hero like people praise me.”

“No.”

Milliam shook her head.

“As far as I know, my brother is the real hero.”

“What?”

“My brother says he fought to survive, but he actually fought for the people. Because my brother always acted for others.”

“…”

“Do you remember when I first came to the North? If my brother hadn’t helped me, I might have lived as a bookworm in the corner of my room for the rest of my life. He wouldn’t even hold a sword… “I guess I couldn’t even face my family properly.”

Milliem scratched his head, feeling a little embarrassed.

“If it weren’t for my brother, I wouldn’t have even decided to get surgery. So, my brother is my idol and my hero.”

“Milliam…”

“You were here.”

The one who suddenly appeared between the two was a gentleman in black.

“Father?”

“A carriage has been prepared to take you to the hospital. “Let’s leave quickly.”

“Come to think of it… Milliam’s surgery was today.”

“That’s right.”

Aidan Ruelberta smiled softly.

“I believe that if this surgery is successful, Milliam will also be healthy.”

“Yes. Millium will get through it just fine.”

“Thank you so much. “When my son’s benefactor, Sir, says that, I somehow feel reassured.”

Millium, who was watching, opened his mouth.

“Ah… So what I wanted to say earlier is that I am grateful to my brother. I don’t know if we’ll meet again alive… “It would be nice if we could spar again then.”＜ Br＞

“I mastered all forms… “You say it as if it’s the last time.”

“No. Therefore…”

“Of course we can see each other again. “I won’t pay attention to you then, so be prepared.”

Kyle chuckled and patted Milliam on the shoulder. As Ariel said, the two looked as close as real brothers.

“Oh, yes. Would Sir Kyle stop by the hospital with you? Her wife was also admitted to our hospital. Shouldn’t her face be shown?”

“Oh, yes. Thank you.”

Aidan, Milliam, and Kyle boarding the carriage.

Even back then, the Ruelberta family’s carriage was luxurious and large. There is enough space to accommodate three people.

“By the way, Sir Kyle.”

He said as if he suddenly remembered Aidan.

“Don’t worry too much about what His Majesty says. As you know, His Majesty dislikes demons a lot, doesn’t he? The North wouldn’t mind as it is now, but you’re being stubborn.”

“It’s not like that. It’s all because I’m lacking.”

“What are you talking about? “What is lacking is not the Lord, but Your Majesty.”

It was a profane word that a subject would not dare utter, but Aidan muttered as if he did not care at all.

“I have no intention of participating in such foolish behavior. Don’t you think so too? There is absolutely no need to provoke demons for useless reasons.”

“…”

“Ah, it must have been a difficult question for you to answer. “I’m sorry.”

“No. Rather, what would have happened if Sir Aidan had not helped him at that time…”

While the two were talking about various things, a strange change suddenly occurred.

‘Hmm?;

The surroundings began to become increasingly blurry, as if there was fog. Now I see that Milliam is dozing off, leaning against the window. Is it because I sparred with a weak body?

Beside him, Aidan and Kyle were continuing their conversation.

“That’s why I’m telling you, there’s something I really want you to help me with…” ” .”

“Please tell me. I have received great help from Sir Aidan, and I will do whatever I can to help.”

“Oh oh… Is that really true?”

Aidan’s face lit up at Kyle’s positive answer.

But it was a strange thing.

When I saw Aidan like that, I had thoughts that I should never have.

A feeling as if I had seen something creepy and eerie went through my body.

“Thank you so much. Sir Kyle.”

“No… Is. If you need my help…”

Kyle also yawned, probably because he was sleepy.

Looking at that, Aidan smiled kindly.

“Actually, I really needed your help.”

And as I look at that smile, ironically…

I was feeling fear.

“After all, Kyung is just the ‘right person.'”

The carriage door closed with a sound.

Then everything around was immersed in darkness, as if it had been turned off.

*

Sprout.

“…What is it?”

Luna looked around her with an uncomfortable expression.

There was nothing.

The hallways we had walked through, the doors, and the Ruelberta family carriage had all disappeared.

“What the hell is this place… ?”

Ariel looked around, but as expected, she couldn’t find anything.

There was something unusual about the atmosphere.

Sprout.

In a space filled with darkness, all you can hear is the creepy sound of cutting something with scissors.

It is a very scary situation.

At times like this, there is only one guy that comes to mind.

“Wendy.”

“Hee, hee!? Yes, yes?!”

Wendy was shaking, looking like she was about to burst into tears at any moment. She’s a coward and a crybaby, so she’ll be in trouble if I don’t take care of her.

“Calm down and stick to this side.”

“Yes, yes…”

Wendy, trembling with fear, stood close to me. Meanwhile, the sound of cutting with scissors continued.

Sprout.

Sprout.

Sprout.

How many times have I heard that sound?

Suddenly, a light turns on, illuminating a room in the dark.

A room all white, like a sterile room. There was a man standing there.

“The Vitelac tree really requires a lot of work.”

Aidan was holding a pair of scissors and standing in front of a small sapling.

Snips.

“If humans do not prune like this, the Vitelac tree will quickly wither and die. Strictly speaking, it is a truly stupid tree that cannot survive in nature on its own. But if you prune it well…”

Aidan took out a brilliant green gem from her arms.

“Sometimes an irreplaceable gem like this grows.”

“Father… ?”

This was a hospital room. Milliam, lying on a white hospital bed, looked up at Aidan with a dazed expression, as if she had just woken up.

“Do you understand? Millium. Only one branch of the Vitelac tree produces jewels. In order to make that one branch grow well, an average of 300 branches have to be cut off in a year.”

Sprout.

Aidan neatly gathered the fallen tree branches to one side.

“The interesting thing is that the Vitelac tree produces… The branch on which the jewel will be made is decided from the beginning. As you can see, there is a branch that seems to be the center even if you look at it like this. So, if you just cut off those branches, a year later, beautiful jewels will grow out of them. Just like our human lives.”

“No… “Father.”

Milliam shook her head helplessly and looked up at Aidan.

“For humans, such things are not set in stone. “There is no life set in stone from the beginning.”

“Oh, Milliam. “Do you really think that?”

“Yes…”

“Superior and inferior people are determined from the moment they are born, and they are evident from the very beginning.”

“No. My father… It’s wrong.”

“Hmm… That’s such a shame. “I can’t believe you think that way to lead the Ruelberta family after me.”

“…”

Milliam didn’t respond to Aidan’s words. Instead, he asked something he was curious about.

“The surgery… Is it over?”

“Okay. It ended very successfully.”

Aidan put down the scissors.

For some reason, we couldn’t say anything as we watched it. There was a strange coercion in his voice, so it was difficult for him to talk about anything else.

No, the atmosphere itself was something strange.

My chest feels tight and I feel like I’m suffocating.

[Your sensitivity is 30%.]

Before I knew it, my sensitivity had risen to 30%. What on earth? Why is the sensitivity increasing? My doubts were put to rest for a moment as Milliam coughed and asked.

“Cough… How much time has passed?”

“It took me three weeks to wake up.”

“3 weeks… ?!”

“Okay. Since it was such a major surgery, it took so long to recover.”

“Then Kyle would have gone back a long time ago.”

“… Hmm.”

Aidan’s expression suddenly darkened. Milliam tilted her head after reading that unusual expression.

“Father?”

“Actually, it’s a story I heard a few days ago in top secret…”

“Top secret… “What?”

“Okay. “It is said that His Majesty’s army secretly headed north a few days ago.”

“Yes?! What…What? Why your Majesty’s army?”

Aidan delivered the news with a very regretful expression.

“It is said that Lord Kyle, who returned to the North, rebelled against the demons…”
