Chapter 350
Humans try to explain their feelings with words such as sad, embarrassed, happy, and despair. But Snow knew that human emotions weren’t that simple.
Just looking at Adela’s emotions right in front of Snow’s eyes, they were swirling wildly, as if various emotions had been ground in a blender.
The hope that his parents, who were separated when he was young, might be looking after him. little joy. And there was a huge despair that could not be compared to such positive emotions.
Should he destroy his parents at his command? Can you really do that? Could Snow’s words be false? Adela just wanted to run away.
“Mrs. Adela...”
Snow looked at Adela and opened his mouth slowly. Looking at Adela, who was breathing slowly because of her fast beating heart, Snow showed the devil’s true face.
“Do you think it was a coincidence that Louis chose Volterra?”
“Stop talking! Isn’t it against the rules to talk like that to the point of influencing the other person?”
Angela shouted harshly with her wand, but Snow shook her head.
“You break the rules. I just thought I should tell Adela the truth.”
“...truth?”
Adela opened her mouth with blank eyes. At first glance, it seems expressionless, but the atmosphere was different from usual.
“yes. The truth. It’s no coincidence that Louis-sama chose Volterra. Because Adela was there.”
Having said that, Snow bowed his head in pity. Snow thought that this was also part of the game. Chess was a game where you beat your opponent with chess pieces, but Snow’s true specialty was the ability to kill your opponent’s heart with your words.
“Louise-sama took notice of Adela-sama’s ability. If Lady Adela hadn’t been in Volterra... there would be no reason for that to happen.”
metallurgy metallurgy.
Making a rift with his words, Snow dug into Adela’s heart. It was not difficult to cook Adela, who was full of gaps due to the appearance of her parents who had already become ice statues.
The most important thing to break an opponent with words is a big shot. It is to pour water from a large bucket through the cracks in the sandcastle.
“No matter how much the two of you loved Adela-sama, now that you suffered such a terrible thing, wouldn’t you resent Adela-sama?”
Then the crack becomes huge and emotions overflow. Humans are fragile. Such tremendous mental pain was not something that humans could endure.
“I’d rather not have a seed of unhappiness like you... it’s better. I mean.”
flinch.
Adela shuddered. Adela wrapped her other hand around one shoulder, as if she was not going to collapse.
“Move the knight from C3... to D5.”
“Are you not going to catch Bishop? I thought I had occupied an advantageous high ground... Then I will take the D5 knight as a queen.”
Adela’s strategy so far has been to boldly abandon the chess piece and occupy an advantageous position. There was no way he could beat Snow by complacently escaping without destroying his opponent’s chess piece.
“Move the pawn from H2 to H3....”
“I will move the bishop from E7 to H3.”
Adela sensed something was wrong. Snow wasn’t already playing chess. The game was being played under the assumption that Adela could not attack Bishop.
Adela’s breathing was disturbed.
Concentration had already been broken before, and sharp attacks now turned into meaningless movements.
“Then I...”
Could it be because of the broken spirit? Adela eventually made a mistake.
“Pawn on F2 to F3... advance one space.”
Trembling –
The ice soldier who was standing on the huge chessboard moved forward, not knowing what would happen next.
Snow, wearing a pod, watched Adela like that, as if savoring it.
Angela closed her eyes as Snow’s body blocked the huge blade flying toward her.
“Gagogogogogogok-!”
Jjaeuk-!
The impact on Snow was such that the huge ice chessboard cracked. Angela withstood the shock with both legs, but the problem came next.
Damn it-!
Although the physical force was blocked, Angela felt her body stiffen in the aftermath of the cold air surrounding the Great Sword of the Colossus.
Angela looked at Adela with her stiffening body.
“Please follow me...”
Angela became an ice statue without being able to continue the words that followed.
Jjajeok Jjaeong-!
At the same time, Snow’s crown was shattered by the colossus’ coldness.
Grrruk- thump!
When the bright light emitted from the crown ceased, the colossus collapsed and the chess pieces stopped moving.
Adela apologized with a painful face in front of the frozen Angela.
“I’m sorry...”
Adela resented herself. I made a promise so many times that I eventually made my colleagues get caught up in it and made it trapped in the cold ice. Indeed, as Snow said, she wanted Angela to hear her own voice, and Adela promised.
“...I’ll even do your part. I will... rescue you and all of your colleagues...”
Adela bowed her head in front of Angela. Considering the singularity of Louis’ mana, he was able to return Angela to her original body by completing the attack before she lost her mana and vitality.
“I swear. Definitely...”
The moment Adela bowed her head and continued to promise.
I heard someone’s footsteps in the dark ice cave .
I heard a very familiar voice.
“Adela...”
It was someone she hadn’t seen in over 10 years, but Adela knew who it was just by hearing her voice. how can i forget
The parents who became ice statues were watching themselves as they were before leaving Adela.
“sorry. Adela... It’s too late, isn’t it? You worked hard alone for a long time...”
The father smiled at himself.
“Adela. Can I hug you tight once...?”
Seeing her mother spread her arms in tears, Adela stiffened.
“...Are you back?”
Adela walked slowly towards her parents with a look of disbelief on her face. The warm arms of my parents that I wanted so much were within reach.
“okay. Adela... I’ve been watching you all along.”
The moment Adela was embraced in her arms without realizing it, she realized that she had missed her so much.
That this is not your parents.
It was too cold, too cold, too ruthless to be human.
“...ah?”
Adela raised her head with agony and looked at her mother. However, the one looking at him was a witch with very red eyes and very pale skin.
“What a foolish thing...”
Louis said, leaving Adela cold. My mind became hazy and faint.
