I Became the Genius Bastard of a Noble Dark Clan – 138

Chapter 138

Episode 138

“If you will give me your whole self, it is possible. At this moment, swear to me that you will give me everything.”

Olivia bit her lip.

It means a magical covenant.

It’s a temporary oath, but her life is in the hands of that mine.

But Olivia nodded firmly.

A choice that doesn’t make sense even when you think about it yourself.

“I swear I will entrust everything to you.”

A covenant is a confirmation of will.

Her mental barrier was wide open to Chris, and dark magic was unleashed upon her defenseless mind.

4-star welcome black magic.

Swamp of memories.

Olivia’s mind was consumed by dark magic that buried her in the past.

The moment before you lose consciousness as your entire field of vision becomes engulfed in darkness.

There was a hand squeezing her hand tightly.

As if to tell me not to worry,

Infinitely warm and strong.

The touch she had been longing for.

‘… Oppa?’

* * * ‘Swamp of Memories’ is about immersing the other person in illusions of the past they miss the most.

The past that Olivia misses the most is, of course, the time when Chris was alive.

Olivia was reunited with Chris in a welcoming ceremony.

“Brother…?”

Olivia’s eyes fluttered.

I saw ‘Chris’.

She immediately realized that she was seeing a vision.

But it felt too real to be dismissed as a simple illusion.

It’s as if the past has been perfectly recounted.

It felt like I was meeting the real Chris in person.

Yes, it was a welcome sight, almost like it was ‘real’.

There was a reason.

Chris twisted his black magic and became the ‘Chris’ in the illusion.

In other words, the ‘Chris’ that Olivia encountered was not only a welcome sight, but also the real Chris.

Chris opened his mouth as if he had returned to the past.

“long time no see.”

and.

The moment I heard that same voice from the past.

The dam in Olivia’s heart suddenly collapsed.

* * *

‘This is just an illusion.’

Olivia squeezed her chest.

If you give your heart to a dream that will make you wake up, you will only become more empty.

but.

‘… Is this really a fantasy?’

Olivia looked confused.

It wasn’t a question of being sophisticated or not.

Olivia’s intuition was telling her.

That it’s not ‘fake’.

It really felt like Chris had come back alive.

‘That’s ridiculous.’

The feeling of being with Chris felt so real that Olivia shook her head hastily, her frozen heart slowly starting to melt.

“Why, why did you come here?”

There was no need to ask why.

That mine wished to awaken his power of conjugal power.

I think I’ll use Chris’s appearance to urge him to awaken his powers of conscience.

However, ‘Chris’ gave an unexpected answer.

“You get some rest.”

“…uh?”

“You’ve been having a hard time lately.”

Olivia almost burst out laughing again.

-Take a rest and then go.

I remembered the story I heard when I first met Chris.

Even though she knew this was a welcome offer, Olivia couldn’t refuse his offer.

“Really… can I rest?”

“of course.”

Chris nodded.

As before, with a smile.

“As much as you want.”

Time passed since then.

I didn’t do anything special.

Olivia spent peaceful time with Chris as if she had returned to the past.

What’s really strange is that it’s clearly a welcome.

Olivia felt her heart warming.

It’s like being with the real Chris.

‘I don’t want to break it.’

Olivia closed her eyes quietly.

“…Can I just stay like this?”

“Yeah, of course.”

Luckily, ‘Chris’ didn’t rush her.

I just stayed still and tried to comfort her.

Without fail.

How much time has passed like that?

A few days? A few weeks? Or maybe a few years?

I don’t know.

Time in dreams is a mess.

Because it felt like a dream that lasted a lifetime, but looking back, it was only a moment.

The dream I was having with Olivia was like that too.

yet.

“Hehe, you can stop now.”

Olivia said in a wet voice.

“We can’t keep going like this.”

I don’t want to break it like this forever.

It’s an illusion that has no choice but to end.

“Still, I liked it.”

I don’t know how this is possible.

Olivia felt her frozen heart warm up as the time she spent in the welcome felt like it was really spent with Chris.

‘I’ll miss you even more.’

But, ‘Chris’ said something unexpected.

“I will always be with you.”

“!!”

“I promise.”

Olivia’s eyes wavered.

“…lie.”

“I’m not lying. Do you want to see it?”

A leaf appeared in Chris’s hand.

And then the whistle starts.

“!!”

Olivia’s eyes fluttered.

‘How can you make that sound?’

It was exactly the same whistle Chris often played on the top before.

It was too real to be considered a realization of a memory from the subconscious.

Olivia could no longer dismiss the vision before her as a mere illusion, as the warm sound seemed to caress her heart.

I don’t think that’s possible.

I just wanted to believe it was ‘Chris’.

“…This is foul play.”

Olivia wiped her eyes vigorously.

“I will be with you, so trust me and be strong in the future.”

Olivia kept her mouth shut.

“Are you sure you’re going to stay together?”

“Yeah, I promise. Actually, I’m busy so I won’t be here all the time, but I’ll come see you sometimes.”

Olivia chuckled.

Chris’s voice continued to seep gently into her heart.

The deep scar seemed to be getting slightly warmer.

“Olivia, do you remember what you always told me?”

“Uh…? Yeah.”

Olivia nodded bewilderedly.

When she was young, she always told Chris that he would become a great pope.

Although it was difficult as a saint, it was her dream to become a pontiff who served the people.

After falling into despair, the dream became distant.

“I actually don’t think you have to become a great pontiff. No matter what life you choose, I will support you.”

“…….”

“But I hope your dreams aren’t shattered because of me. That’s not what I want.”

Olivia was silent for a long time.

And then.

He smiled bashfully.

“You’re always the same, oppa.”

Before too.

Chris held Olivia tightly whenever she wavered.

If it weren’t for Chris, Olivia wouldn’t have been able to stand tall as a saint.

“I’m going now.”

A light emanated from behind her.

“I don’t want to be ashamed in front of my brother.”

At the same time.

The welcome is over.

* * *

“!!”

Olivia opened her eyes with a start.

An unlucky mine stood before my eyes.

It seemed like very little time had passed.

“…What did you do to me?”

“As you can see, it is. It made me look back on my past wounds. It was to help me blossom my powers. Fortunately, it seems to have worked.”

Olivia bit her lip.

The reason she couldn’t develop her power was because of disappointment.

To be precise, the festering wounds of the soul blocked the flowering of power.

That mine must have noticed that and showed this welcome.

‘… But how could you show such a welcome?’

In fact, Olivia didn’t know much about the magic of illusion.

However, I could tell that the illusion that Mine had just shown me was different from a normal illusion.

It wasn’t a matter of realism, it was like I was really with the real Chris.

Especially when I heard the whistle at the end, I unconsciously believed that it was the real Chris.

Anyway, it’s a problem to think about later.

“Can you do it?”

It refers to the flowering of power.

Olivia paused for a moment, then nodded.

“I’ll try.”

actually.

Her wounds were still there.

It was natural.

How can a wound get better just because you had a dream?

but.

Whether Chris in the welcome was real or fake, one thing was certain.

‘My brother wouldn’t want me to be like this.’

What Chris wants is for her to stand tall as the Pope.

Olivia clutched the gift Chris had given her.

As if holding the hand of an invisible older brother.

At that moment, her soul took a step upward.

Phew!

A brilliant light flowed from her body.

Gwangik exuded even more sublime majesty.

‘It’s not enough yet.’

Olivia had a gut feeling.

What’s missing is her will.

She made up her own mind.

After Chris’s death, he took to heart the will of the Pope to serve the people, something he had long forgotten.

‘I can do it!’

The moment she had such a strong will, her ‘power’ blossomed.

Phew!

Comforting the soul.

A sublime light radiated from her body, illuminating the souls upon the altar.

[iced coffee!]

The souls shed tears.

The purpose of the ritual is not simply to comfort the souls.

The process of healing and completely purifying the wounds suffered by souls.

The holy power drove away the evil black magic that had been holding the souls captive.

“This, this…!!”

The Duke of Bintz’s face turned pale.

As the sacrifices were about to be liberated, problems began to arise with the power of the Archduke of Bintz.

“What are you doing! Are you just going to watch this?!”

Archduke Bintz shouted urgently at the doll standing behind him.

The doll shrugged her shoulders as if in trouble.

[This is unexpected. I never imagined that it would induce the flowering of power.]

The doll had a mischievous smile on its face.

[But what if we do this?]

At that very moment, when the doll snapped her fingers, something strange happened.

Hururuk.

A thick, dark flame rose from beneath the altar.

The energy is so overwhelming.

[Summons the flames of Gehenna. It enhances the effects of black magic.]

Indeed, the souls that had been liberated were caught in the flames again and screamed in pain.

The doll smiled as if it was watching an interesting spectacle.

[So, what are you going to do? With the power of the newly-formed soul, it won’t be able to save the souls caught in the flames of Gehenna?]

Olivia gritted her teeth.

Paat. The light radiating from her body became even more intense.

Hwaaaaak!

The flames of Gehenna grew even more intense.

It was a power that overwhelmed her authority.

‘That Gehenna flame is a 6-star level dark magic curse. There’s no chance of winning at this rate.’

Had to make a number.

After much thought, Chris reached out his hand.

“Please hold my hand.”

“…yes yes?”

“Let me help you wield your power. Come on!”

Olivia was embarrassed.

The power of the constellation is an ability that is unique to Olivia. It was nonsense to think that others would help her.

widely.

Olivia took Chris’s hand.

“…Can you really help me?”

“Yes, but you must trust me. Please do not resist my energy.”

A faint stream of energy flowed from the hands we held.

It was magic.

“!!”

Olivia was startled and tried to pull her hand away, but barely managed to hold it back.

Chris’s magic seeped into her veins, surprisingly without any conflict with Olivia’s energy.

An article that would make others doubt their eyes if they saw it.

‘When magic and light energy collide, it’s like a neutralization reaction. By using the nature of dark magic’s control, you can delicately manipulate the reaction of the opponent’s energy and temporarily suppress the neutralization reaction.’

therefore.

It was a crazy thing that was possible because it was Chris.

Then the unbelievable happened.

Chris’s magic seeped into Olivia’s veins, cleverly touching her energy.

Okay then.

Paaaaaaaaaaaaaah!!

The sacred energy that had been flowing steadily created a different flow pattern in an instant, and something unbelievable happened.

“?!”

The power of the power of the spirit that Olivia was manifesting began to amplify.

‘Uh, how?’

Olivia looked astonished.

Chris thought about the answer in his head.

‘The power of the Holy Blood is ultimately a technique. Its power changes depending on how effectively the technique is used.’

Olivia is the only Awakened One of the Holy Blood.

Therefore, since he had never received any teachings that would help him hone his powers, he was bound to have some technical shortcomings.

Of course, I have never used the power of the blood of Christ.

‘Because I’ve helped Olivia handle her powers many times before.’

And that’s not all.

There were many times during the Age of Destruction when I saw the Celestials using the power of the constellations.

Based on that, we devised a way to strengthen its power.

This is also a crazy thing that is possible because it is Chris.

Phaaaat!!

The heightened sublime power suppressed the flames of Gehenna.

Once again, the souls began to be released, and Archduke Bintz stumbled as his powers failed.

[Ahahahahaha!! Crazy! You strengthened the power of the constellations by imitating the methods of the Celestials! Are you really human?! This is very interesting! Ahahahaha!]

The doll burst into a strange laugh.

[I can’t just let this happen. Come down, despair and malice!]

The flames of Gehenna grew more intense.

As if pushing away the power that Chris had strengthened.

When Olivia’s complexion turned pale.

Chris did the following:
