--Weinmandt- inside the small inn called "Shia's Blood"

From behind us, the elf king Kalmen appeared.

Finlan's eyes were almost falling out of his sockets -

"Ta ...... Tasia!"

" Well, it's I."

" Why are you ......"

"Hmm? I'm not allowed to enter Elysis, but am I not allowed to come to Weinmandt? The great flower dryer Finlan.."

Flower ...... dryer ......

"I'm a jugger! Not a dyer!!!" Finland furiously grabbed up the few remaining strands of his hair, "You have mocked me for 10,000 years, are you still not enough?!"

Kalmen ripped open his noble and luxurious hem, and sat leisurely like a punk on the edge of Nalisa's bed, there is even a little gangsterism in his tone -

"Shut up! How dare a little acter be so reckless! Slap your own mouth."

"You goddamn ......"

Finlan was trying hit him, however, he can’t hold back and laughed out loudly.

"Ha ...... ha ha ha ha ha ha!!!"

There are even tears coming out of his eyes.

Kalmen sat quietly with an unspoken smile on the corners of his mouth as well.

"Ha ...... huh, well ...... ahem ......"

Finlan wiped the corner of his eyes and sighed helplessly.

"Looking at your face that haven't changed in decades, I really thought I was back in the old days ...... So, what are you doing here? Come to say goodbye to the two of us who are going to die?"

"Two people who are going to die? ......"

Kalmen turned back and looked at the thin face of the tired Nalisa, ruffled her long hair that covered half of her face with his hand, and looked at the scars in silence.

"Miss Molly Ann."

"Eh!? Ah ...... hello."

Being suddenly mentioned by my own name really startled me.

"Just a moment ago, I heard from the Astrologer that you had obtained a rather interesting rare magic, right?"

Astrologer ......

Rare magic ......

that I got?

"It's that useless magic that even I don't know anything about it."

Emile reminded from the side.

Ah, it is called what ...... well ...... called ......

"I heard it is called 'Three Life Chain Knot ' then."

Ah, now I remembered ......

Three Life Chain Knot - deny the present, reverse the past, and create the future.

The weird magic I picked after the mid rank mage examination ended, it sounds awesome, but in fact ......

It is a magic between two parties that creates memories shared by both parties at the cost of the lifespan of both of them or one of them. how much lifespan, how long memories.

"Eh...... the reason you need this magic, is it ......"

"Well," Kalmen smiled calmly, and "I decided to spend the rest of my life to dream with both of them."

"Wait! The cost of that ...... magic is really your lifespan!!! In exchange for very worthless things! This is a completely useless magic oh!!!"

"No, Miss Molly Ann, the contract magic will not make too unequal contract."

Kalmen said to me seriously.

"But ......"

isn't it completely unfair to trade longevity for false memories ......?

"Tasia, there's no need for you to make such a big sacrifice for us," Finland helped Nalisa's body up and leaned shoulder to shoulder with her, "we've lived long enough as humans."

"That's why I said before, too selfish, Finlan. Only you can enjoy the memories of being with Nalisa for so long, so at least accept this last kindness of me."

After saying that, Kalmen once again looked at Emile and me and asked an extremely odd question.

"Young misses, what do you think my wife is?"

That sturdy wife of Elf King ......

"Well ...... in order to get her husband back, she even killed the city lord of Elysis by her own hand, and injured you... ...and ended up going to war with Elysis ......"

"And destroyed old man Finlan's magic corridor so that he could only become a necromancer."

Emile added for me.

"My wife is a very gentle and kind person."

......

We both stared blankly at Kalmen's face, and then let out an exclamation together.

"Ha!?"

"Hmm. She was the daughter of the Ancient Wood Priestess, and was raised with a good education, she had a good heart and never hurt any life before. However, when I asked her about her reasons for killing, she told me, 'One can be gentle and kind in his life, without arguing with people about right and wrong, without competing for fame and fortune ......"

-- "But, at least once, he should go out and fight for his happiness at all costs.'" --

Kalmen smiled lonely and looked out the window at the sky --

"So, please. Miss Molly Ann. It is my will, my desire. So, trade my lifespan for a good memory for the 'three of us',......"
