True Peace (5)
When Elizabeth opened her eyes, she was in a dark narrow room.
“Wh-where am I?”
Feeling overwhelmed, she immediately pulled up her strength to destroy the space itself, but it was too much for her. She didn’t have a grain of strength left. Rather, the more she tried to move, the stronger the languor came and scattered her consciousness.
“Oppa
?”
Nervous, she turned her head around and looked for Evan. However, of course, she didn’t feel anything. Evan was not by her side.
The girl was weak.
“Oppa
huhu.”
Then. In the ear of the child who finally began to cry, someone approached and whispered.
-What are you going to do after finding your brother?
“Who are you?”
-If you find him, what do you want to do?
She looked back, yet there was only darkness. But the voice remained unwavering and whispering extremely close to her. The only thing there was the voice, and Elizabeth decided to answer it.
“I’m going to hug him.”
-And then what?
“I’ll ask for a kiss.”
-Then what about after?
“And then, then
”
Elizabeth smiled softly as she recalled Evan’s appearance. When she thought of his warm arms, her body seemed to be floating. She could feel her anxious mind calming down little by little just thinking about her brother. It was the voice that reminded her of her brother that caused a stir in her calm mind.
-Well, it wouldn’t mean anything to imagine.
“What?”
His voice broke the child’s imagination in vain.
-He has a lot of precious people. You’re just his sister.
“But he’s so sweet to me.”
-Right, because you’re his younger sister. He has no choice but to take care of you because you’re the younger sister. If you weren’t his sister, would he have even looked at you?
“
”
-There are many women he loves. He’d be happier with other women than his sister, and you’re sticking to him just because you’re his sister.
At this, Elizabeth had gone silent.
-Look now, because you cut in unnecessarily, he couldn’t do what he deserved. He didn’t need any help from you, so you shouldn’t have stepped up and put him in trouble.
“
”
– So, would he care about you? For him, you’re just an annoying sister, but he has no choice but to take care of you. You know how many paths he had to go around because of you, don’t you?
Elizabeth slowly began to realize the fact that this voice was her own.
-That’s right.
The voice also read her thoughts.
-I’m you but more rational. I think it was stupid of you to jump on the Devil at the last minute.
“But then
”
-Even if you were in the Devil, you knew what was going on, didn’t you? Oppa had to go through a lot for you. Some people were forced to be sacrificed because of that.
“Oppa will save me eventually.”
-Exactly. Oppa can do anything. But what’s next? You made him suffer like this. Will he continue to love you?
Elizabeth’s heart throbbed.
-That can’t be right. The little sister who was bothering him had an irreversible accident. A lump of baggage. A lump of baggage that he wants to throw away right now. There’s no way Oppa would let you off the hook.
“Huhu
”
-So, what do we do? What should you do to be loved by Oppa?”
“To say I’m sorry.”
-You’re a kid. That’ll only make you narrower.
“But it’s my fault
”
-You want to stay as a troublemaker sister? Not me.
The voice became intense.
– I want Oppa.
There was a rattling sound in her heart.
– To do that, you can’t be a sister.
-The answer is simple.
– I’m sure you know that.
– Breaking up the distractions.
– Just like you’ve always done.
Elizabeth clasped her ears and shook her head amidst a flood of evil whispers. However, now, the voice was rising from within her.
– I’m not talking about anyone else.
– That’s what I’m thinking myself.
– You’re just facing an impulse.
-A true impulse.
-You’re afraid your relationship with him is off?
-You’re scared of the consequences of your mistakes, aren’t you?
– If you want them to never happen, you have no choice but to stand on top.
“Am I
?”
The voice became more and more violent. Blades seemed to have risen from the pouring voice like rain.
-You can put him down.
-Press him with your strength and take him.
-Let’s get rid of the distractions.
-You don’t have to make excuses.
-Belois, Serena, and Arisha.
-Daddy and big brother are annoying too. Get rid of them.
-You don’t need anyone but Oppa, do you?
– Power justifies everything.
– I’m sure you know better than anyone else since you’re a Destroyer.
Elizabeth couldn’t deny her voice. The innermost thoughts hidden deep in her heart were overflowing, but then there was something she could realize at the same time.
“I’m
I’m human.”
-But to achieve what you want, you have to take off that little shell.
“No, I’m not going to be a beast.”
-No, you got a chance to evolve.
“Now I know.”
A voice was rising from Elizabeth’s heart. It was the voice of a monster who urged her to destruction as if it were Elizabeth’s innermost thoughts.
“Now I know you’re not me.”
Elizabeth pouted her lips and raised her hand. Before she knew it, a morningstar with a rune engraved with brilliant divine power appeared.
“Because I don’t know such difficult words.”
Baaaam!
The Morning Star deftly broke the black space in half. She called the morningstar in her other hand and swung around everywhere with it.
“I’m going to tell Oppa I’m sorry and ask him to hug me.”
-But then, you can’t get what you want

“I destroy only what I want.”
The Destroyer’s power was absolute. It was the power to destroy everything in the way, to create her own path.
“It wasn’t him that I wanted to destroy; it was you from the beginning!”
-Foolish
that, that’s nonsense

Bang!
Booooooom!
BAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAM!
A dazzling light poured in from beyond the collapsing black world. Elizabeth could find a hand stretching toward her.
“Oppa!”
“Liz!”
Soon, her hands stretched out and grabbed Evan. Elizabeth took a strong leap forward.
* * *
“
Liz, you look a little different?”
“I’m the same.”
Shortly after bringing Elizabeth out of the Necklace World, Evan hugged his sister in his arms and thought something was wrong.
“No, I knew you got bigger, but I didn’t think you got this big
”
Furthermore, he felt a sense of seductiveness in his sister’s long, winding red hair. Overall, Elizabeth had an adult atmosphere. She even had a heavy feeling that didn’t seem to suit her purity.
“But obviously, the spirit of the Devil is gone.”
“Yes, I broke it!”
“Did you break it?”
“Yes!”
When Evan asked back in a cold sweat, Elizabeth outlined what she had been through. She said that she couldn’t reveal her whole heart, but she roughly said that the Devil’s evil voice encouraged her impulse to destroy everything. Evan was overwhelmed and murmured a line of dialogue that was nowhere else in the Yo-Ma Great War series.
“It’s like a wake-up event for some protagonist.”
“I thought you’d say that.”
“But it’s really
so be it.”
It was too hard to bring Elizabeth back to the same state as before. But even if the by-products came with it, he calculated that once he had killed the Devil, he could shake them off and regain the original girl

When Elizabeth was recovered, very little, his calculations went differently.
‘I didn’t even know all about the Devil.’
Even if Evan had completely killed the Devil and gained experience, the Devil might have left a last-resort fragment. If it had, of course, it would have been applied to Elizabeth, the last remaining fragment. Presumably, the Devil had finally tried to accomplish something through Elizabeth.
And, as a result of things going differently than Devil’s plan

“How are you feeling, Elizabeth?”
“Wow
I think I can do anything!”
A hairbrush suddenly appeared in Elizabeth’s hand. She grinned and held out a brush to Evan, saying she wanted him to brush her hair. Evan obediently brushed her hair and was convinced, too.
‘I think Liz took over the power of the Devil.’
Cold sweat ran down his back.
‘My sister, who was already out of control, is gradually stepping into an area where she can’t return from!’
Although he was convinced that Devil had died, he was also worried that the Devil’s power might have an ill effect on Elizabeth.
“Oppa.”
However, while brushing her hair with anxious thoughts, Elizabeth suddenly called him.
“I’m sorry.”
“For what?”
“I made you and everyone else suffer.”
“Oh, yeah. It’s certainly been tough.”
“I’m so sorry
”
‘No.’
‘Can I relax?’
“It’s okay.”
“Because it’s my job to take care of my little sister.”
“Hehe
I really, really like you, Oppa.”
“Oppa likes Liz, too.”
However, Elizabeth, who couldn’t overcome her joy, was about to kiss Evan. Arisha, who sneaked out from the side, blocked her.
“It used to be fine, but now it looks a little dangerous, so stop it.”
“Why?”
“If it’s dangerous, it’s dangerous. That’s what you all think, right?”
A group of women who were looking at Elizabeth in Evan’s arms with anxious eyes nodded. Cattleya’s Claws seemed to be aiming at Elizabeth right now.
“
Would it have been better to break them all?”
“Liz
?”
For a moment, there seemed to be a surge of black magic from Elizabeth. When Evan called his sister’s name in a cold sweat, she smiled and kissed Evan’s cheek as if she hadn’t shown such a scary figure. Arisha, who was surprised by her energy and missed to keep her in check, raised her voice, but it was too late.
“Let’s go back home, Oppa!”
“Okay, then let’s all go home.”
“Home.”
“Where is home?” Cattleya asked innocently. Evan smiled softly instead of answering.
It was the day that the Devil disappeared completely

And peace came to the world.
