'The Witch of Lust' Echidna put down the coffee in her hand, looked at the silver-haired half-elf girl with the same appearance as Emilia in front of her, and said so.

Appearing in her 'castle', the half-elf girl sitting in front of her at the moment made her hostile, and the reason for her hostility towards Emilia was precisely the half-elf who looked the same as Emilia. Elf girl.

The girl is an uninvited guest, but Echidna has no way to expel her from her 'castle'.But even so, in order to show her unwelcoming attitude, she did not prepare tea and snacks for the other party.

And what she just said was answering the doubts of the half-elf girl.

"So, you understand what I'm saying?"

"—'Jealous Witch', Shatila!"

Chapter 465 It's All Shatila's Fault

"I have to say, that person really made good use of your ability. There are almost no restrictions in her hands on the chance of infinite restarts."

"If Subaru had come by himself, I'm afraid it would have been difficult to get to where we are now. What you expect and what you want to protect will definitely be destroyed once again."

Seemingly endless remarks, but whether it is Echidna who said these words or Satila who is sitting opposite Echidna, who can be regarded as an uninvited guest to her, they are very clear about the relationship between the two of them. Talk about who the main character is.

Nayue Subaru, that man has a special protection called 'Death Return'. The ability of the protection itself is that after the death of the person concerned, as long as there is still unyielding in the heart, if there is still desire or, if there is still the motivation to move on, Then you can go back to a certain time before death like reversing time.

Subaru did not obtain this protection by chance, even before Ruri told Subaru about this protection, he himself did not know that he possessed this extremely special ability.

And this protection was given to Subaru by the "jealous witch" Shatila who sat opposite Echidna, who according to legend once destroyed half of the world. Gift.

However, in fact, this is not the first time that this protection has appeared on Subaru.No... To be more precise, it should have appeared on Subaru a long time ago.

The long ago here is not very early in the concept of time, because in terms of time alone, Subaru has only traveled to this world not long ago, and just a few months is not very early.

It's very early in it, it transcends the concept of time, exists in 'reincarnation', and only a few people including witches know 'time'.

The memories of the "future" that Emilia and the others have do not simply represent the changeable "possibility" of the future, but the "past" that really exists and has indeed been experienced by them.

Echidna had said that Emilia and the others were not reborn when she talked with Subaru in her castle last time. This was not to deceive Subaru, but she did not tell everything.

If everything goes back to the source, Subaru's experience after coming to this world was not good. He met Emilia and decided to help her.

But at that time, he faced the first problem in his life, and probably the most difficult problem, that was the attack from Elsa the 'Intestine Hunter'.

Once, five times, ten times, dozens of times, hundreds of times... No matter what method the man named Subaru Natsuki came up with, whether it was setting up an ambush in advance, or choosing to escape, whether it was delaying time to let Emilia Look for the badge again the next day, but don't meet Emilia and persuade Felut and Master Rom to escape immediately.

No matter how he took the initiative to attack or chose to avoid it, the final result must be that Emilia was killed by Elsa the 'Intestine Hunter'.

Sometimes he was by Emilia's side, so he would be killed together.Sometimes he chose to hide in the dark, so he chose to commit suicide after Emilia died.

However, Subaru, who had repeated so many times, still couldn't find a way to save Emilia. Obviously, the other party should be pointing at the badge, but even if he could miss the time of Elsa's transaction, he would still be approached later. .

Experiencing the feeling of death many times in a short period of time even made Subaru a little bit broken. From the beginning of knowledge, the simple thought of wanting to help that pure girl gradually became extreme and he wanted to protect her no matter what. thinking.

Then, he was given the tip by the sidelines.

"Seek help from others, don't hold on alone."

Miss System, who knew that Subaru would not choose to give up, said so, and Subaru seemed to realize that he was an ordinary person who could do nothing after all, so he revealed the information of the existence of the 'Intestinal Hunter' to the guard on duty.

"If there is only one chance, even with your protection, he will indeed go to the end. After all, that is a man whose mind has been distorted."

What Echidna was talking about was the ending called Subaru Natsuki, and it was also the ending of the memories that Felice, Elsa, Meili, and Otto had at this time.

The man named Natsuki Subaru witnessed the death of a large number of soldiers, and the sword master who arrived later "eliminated" the power of the "gut hunter" Elsa with a single sword.

If only he had such a strong strength, then so many people would not die.If he had a powerful companion, he wouldn't be so powerless.

Thinking like this, Subaru, who had undergone some changes in the countless deaths, found Elsa who was not completely dead, and took the first step on a certain path he had decided on.

And the end is death with everything lost.

"It's been like this ever since."

Echidna looked at Shatila mockingly and said: "It seems that she has good intentions, she wants to do good deeds, she wants to protect something, she wants to help someone..."

"But your naive thoughts like 'maliciousness' will only cause pain to others."

The reason why Shatila gave Subaru the blessing of "Return by Death" was originally to hope that Subaru would have the ability to live forever, to protect himself, and to survive even better alone. .

However, Subaru has never used this ability for himself. Whether it is active or passive, he always uses his ability for others, using his own 'death' as ​​a tool.

"Shouldn't you have expected this kind of thing a long time ago? He never has his own existence in his eyes. If it weren't for that woman, your kindness is undoubtedly the greatest malice against him."

Nayuki Subaru ushered in death, that was not a happy ending, even Nayuki Subaru himself gave up the motivation to live again.

However, at this time, Miss System used the protection of the 'Return by Death' given by Shatira, which contained the power of the 'Almighty Man' and completely surpassed all restrictions of a 'Return'.

The man named Natsuki Subaru returned to the moment when he came to this different world, and lost all the memories before the "return by death".

Just like traveling to another world for the first time, he embarked on a journey again, and once again met a half-elf girl named Emilia as it was destined.

Only this time, unlike Subaru, Miss System, who still had a 'memory', deliberately avoided the fate that had once ushered in.

"Why, you are ashamed by what I said, so you have nothing to say?"

Echidna smiled and picked up the teacup on the table and took a sip of the liquid inside. Although conceptually everything in this 'world' is a part of her body, the taste of the food that should be there is not. Is there anything missing.

And although she hated the silver-haired half-elf who was also a witch in front of her, Echidna was still very interested if it was a satire to run on the other party.

"...I just, hope he can live better."

"But in terms of results, you killed him."

Echidna sneered, mocking Shatila's seeming innocence and innocence.It used to be this innocence and innocence that made people feel at ease, which caused her to be mercilessly taken away by him.

Seeing this appearance now, of course Echidna would not have a good face.

"The second time, it should be a memorable experience for you."

Subaru's second experience of this world was also the first real restart under Miss System's interference.Although he successfully passed the difficulty called 'Intestinal Hunter', he was defeated by the subsequent attack of the mansion by the monsters.

Rem was killed by the monster's curse, and Ram pursued and killed Subaru as if venting her anger.

Subaru, who had already been killed by Rem and Ram several times before, was wrongly accused of being a murderer, and was cornered countless times by people he once trusted. Innocent.

People are hypocritical and changeable. Maybe the person who laughed at you one moment will show sharp fangs to you the next moment.Maybe the person you trusted so much one moment will give you a fatal blow the next moment.

However, even though he has already realized in his heart the unreliability of human beings and emotions, Subaru still inevitably wants to help those who have been wronged.

Obviously already fearing the approach of others like a frightened bird, but still subconsciously extending a helping hand to the suffering people.

"That's a sad life indeed."

Echidna commented on this, and at the same time, she also noticed Shatila sitting across from her increasingly depressed mood and guilty look.

"Because he lacks a sense of security, he lives in suspicion and fear all day long. He desperately accumulates his own strength. However, he should become a ruthless devil, but he is still "cursed" to constantly intervene with him. Related things."

It takes people to build power, so help those facing despair turn it into their own.

It takes money to build power, so look for the rich and evil to plunder the other party's property.

Seize land, occupy treasures, and kill people.Those deeds that outsiders regard as heinous acts, in the eyes of those who are called 'Pandemonium', are a way for Subaru to uphold justice and cut through injustice.

It's just that that method is too extreme and lacks humanity.However, even so, no one wanted to betray Subaru, because it was Subaru who pulled them out of hell.

"However, he was clearly a drowning man climbing grass to survive, but no one could hold him back. The 'anti-hero' that existed in the shadows ushered in the end of being wiped out by a real hero."

As a result, Natsuki Subaru ushered in the second "death" in the eyes of Echidna, and the "Pandemonium" of the heinous tyrant "Purge King" in everyone's eyes was jointly attacked by soldiers from several countries.

"Too naive thinking will only bring misfortune to others. He is so, and so are you."

If Shatila had given Subaru more convenient protection, and if Shatila had been more mature in the process of granting the protection, then such a result would not have happened.

Echidna doesn't think that only she and other people in this 'castle' know about Subaru's experience, and the witch in front of her must also be aware of it, and even pay more attention to everything about Subaru than she does.

"Then, three times."

Compared to the previous two times, Subaru chose to escape this time.It is impossible to fall a second time where he has fallen once, and although he has lost the memory that would have a bad effect on him, Subaru, who has Miss System who knows everything, has survived the crisis at the Roswaal mansion.

then……

"Choose to give up."

The tenderness that the girl named Rem gave to Subaru made Subaru, who had come to another world and had no chance to see his parents again, feel the warmth of nostalgia.

Give up everything and choose to escape, because Emilia doesn't need his help anymore.

Shaken for a moment, Subaru accepted Rem's tenderness and love, and chose to leave the country of Lugnica.

"Well, you can hold your head up more or less, at least this time he has lived a good life."

Echidna's laughter didn't make Shatila's complexion any better, because she knew very well that the "good" in Echidna's mouth was just a comparison of the previous two experiences.

After a short period of warmth, the lover who died in childbirth was ushered in, and Subaru could only live alone with the child for the rest of his life.Even though there was another girl by his side, that obviously couldn't heal his cracked heart again.

In many cases, grief is greater than death.

"Enough, stop talking..."

Shatila clenched her hands under the table tightly.

She didn't want this, she just hoped that Subaru could live a better life, she just hoped that the person she loved could live in safety, everything that Echidna said, everything that happened was not her will.

"However, if it wasn't for you, all of this wouldn't have happened, would it? It's your existence that caused him so much pain. Could it be that you still want to act innocent to win other people's sympathy? Then avoid responsibility?"

"...No, that's not the case."

Shatila shook her head vigorously, while Echidna sneered.

She really enjoys the feeling of driving someone she hates to a dead end, especially this time there won't be a man who doesn't know the fun but can't be hated to stop him.

Shatila, who obviously just wanted to question Echidna about what she was going to do, was obviously brought into Echidna's rhythm.

Under Echidna's sophistry, everything about her seemed to be a crime.

Chapter 466

If it was not Shatila who was present at this time, but Emilia who had the same appearance as her, I am afraid that Echidna would not be substituted into her rhythm so easily.

Indeed, according to Echidna's words, it was Shatila's self-righteous "for your own good" that caused the pain and despair that Subaru had been experiencing all along.

He obviously hoped that he could live a better life, but it made him suffer even more.

However, this is just Echidna's rhetoric after ignoring the facts and downplaying the cause and effect.For those who don't understand and are only hearing Echidna's remarks for the first time, Echidna is indeed right.But for those who knew the real situation, what Echidna said was nothing but malicious slander.

Indeed, the person named Natsuki Subaru, who should have been loved by the witch, endured unbearable pain and despair for ordinary people because of the continuous use of the blessing of "return by death".But what if he didn't have the blessing of 'return by death'?

Subaru Natsuki, who has the urge to save the pain and suffering of those who look at him deep in his soul, is undoubtedly a man who does not care about his own comfort and keeps his head down.
