47 8 Black Phase 1

"Please don't call me Lakshasa anymore"

[Darkness] suggested abruptly.

"Lakshasa......?

"It will always be difficult in [darkness], won't it? Originally, [darkness] is the concept of power. I'm just a part of it. '

Smiling woman.

"This is the first host I have been able to [embody] so far. So I want you to know my real name.

"I don't care what you call it. but if you want, let's call it that."

I said [Darkness] to Lakshasa for obvious reasons.

Take her with you and walk out of the wilderness.

My legs are fading, so it's a pretty slow journey.

Lakshasa walks at my pace.

Around there was an irreplaceable wilderness.

Black Phase (Clifoto) ─?

The same goes for the previously lost headmark hills, but this was also a sight of loneliness.

The cloudy weather and dim surroundings also applauded the atmosphere.

Occasionally in the black sky, dark lightning runs.

The lightning suddenly disappeared as it blinked.

"That's..."

It doesn't feel like a lightning strike.

It's like being sucked into space.

"Somewhere in another era, or in another world, there's a part of [darkness] flowing through."

And, Lakshasa.

'Or there may be those who, like you, wear [darkness] and wield its power'

"Just like me..."

"Times and worlds have changed, so the cause of man has not changed."

Lakshasa smiles.

Human business…?

My vengeance must be one of them.

"Shall I take a break around here"

I walked for about two hours and Lakshasa pointed to the shadow of a huge rock.

'Long journeys will be hard on your faded body'

"... right"

'I don't think I feel hungry here, but fatigue builds up just like it does in this world. Sleep well.'

Lakshasa said.

"If you want, let's do it in Ga."

I accidentally looked back at Lakshasa.

It's a joke.

[Darkness] woman laughing and putting her index finger up.

The unexpectedly brown atmosphere was a little unexpected.

Is there one side of this, this guy?

"Stop it because it doesn't sound like a joke"

"Hehe, if you'd get on, I thought I'd give you a hug."

Lakshasa smiling glossy.

I don't know how serious you are, you illegible bitch.

"You're going to be pissed off by the girls you were with."

"Is that Shea and Yurin? Nothing. You won't be angry."

"You should learn more about people's emotional subtleties as well as anger and hate, host"

"... about what?

"Especially about the maiden heart."

What this guy is saying, I don't get one point right now.

"I've been staying with you for about two years... you've gained a lot of strength"

Lakshasa suddenly changed the subject.

"I've never forgotten my resentment or hatred for those guys. That thought raised my [darkness]."

'This is how I can talk to you thanks to you. It's nice to have you see me.'

As the word goes, Lakshasa delightfully narrows her eyes.

I noticed crying under my right eye.

"Have you ever lived in a variety of people?

"Oh, are you jealous?

"... why should I be jealous of you"

I got a little flabbergasted.

Lakshasa looks at me like that and for some reason she looks fun.

'Right. We have lived in hundreds and thousands of human beings and brought [darkness]. Even so, no one wore more mighty [darkness] than you... but in the first place, you are also the first person to [embody] me so clearly'

Lakshasa to explain.

"The extent to which we delivered our voices to most hosts was the limit. Some of them had a breakdown in their minds the moment they lived with me. '

Smile and tell horrible things.

Does holding [Darkness] mean that the physical and psychological strain and depletion is more severe than I thought?

I myself don't feel any strain or drain from using this power.

'In your case, you rather seem to be gaining strength from [darkness]. It was originally supposed to take everything away in the' Chain of Darkness' and suck it up and die because it replenished the vitality lost by [Darkness] and thus still lives'.

Lakshasa explains.

"I... was supposed to die...?

I was wondering if the action of that ritual was to deprive me of my magic or significantly diminish my body.

But it wasn't?

I was supposed to die sucking everything up...?

'Now you are - your physical abilities are considerably diminished, but in your vitality you are far more than that of an ordinary person. Don't worry. "

Lakshasa took my hand.

An unexpectedly warm hand wraps around my broken hand.

'I will continue to do my best for you, my host. Please don't wave [Darkness] in full.'

Finish your rest and we'll move on again.

After a few hours of walking, we rested and repeated the itinerary of hours - and eventually we saw a huge lake ahead.

"We're here, my host."

Lakshasa pointed to the lake.

"Is that the destination?

A presence that leads me to further [darkness].

Is that what you're here for?

Lakshasa nodded quietly at my inquiry.

"That lake is the central point of the 'black phase'. And at the bottom of it... '

Lakshasa tells in a respectful tone.

"The roots of [darkness] - [Nara] are lurking"
