Rhine Stories

——This is the only true Nibelung song behind countless lies.

After leaving Burgundy, Clinesed would often be immersed in her dreams.

Because of her heart that is not noticed by anyone, the real wish can only be reconstructed in the dream-walking with Siegfried by the river, walking hand in hand with Siegfried, no matter where you go with Siegfried together...

When the funeral elegy sounded, the reality froze her heartbeat like ice and snow. Clinesed had already forgotten how she cried to death, but she remembered clearly that the person was lying on the ground with his eyes closed and seemingly without any pain. in the coffin.

"Why are you leaving? 』

Many times, it's not that Clinesed didn't think about whether it was because of her own persistence that she directly forced Siegfried to death.

Or, God wrote a cruel chapter for her, she clearly decided not to fall in love with anyone, but there was someone she had to love, and then because of love, she suffered a lot, and the love of her relatives made her go away You can't do it even if you die.

It hurts, it really hurts.

But what is even more painful and even desperate is that in that era, women were destined to be symbols of the devil.

Originally, it wasn't that Clinesed didn't think that she had to accept Siegfried's death.

Because she knew that her husband did his best to anyone's request during his lifetime, so she did the same, and helped more people through the treasure left by that man.

Brother Gongte's country has always been suppressed by force, so many times the people can't distinguish the king's law, so there are so many wishes waiting for that person.

At least... let her atone as hero wife and cheer up to continue her husband's dream.

Before he was alive, that person didn't have a wish to realize, and he didn't know whether he would reflect on himself after death and become more serious about himself?

Clinesed naturally didn't know these answers, and understood that people who did this were no different from chronic suicide.

However, a king who is gentle to his people must be a good king, so Clinesed does not allow anyone to belittle him. Her most proud husband should be cherished even if he dies like that.

However, these ideas were quickly destroyed under Hagen's advice.

Maybe it was because he couldn't forgive this man, and his younger brother Gisele Hale even asked him not to appear at the funeral, but Clinesed still got a "request" from Gunter, asking her to transfer the treasure of Nibelung in her hand.

This is like tearing off the feet of a white bird that has lost its wings.

『Cleansed, the current 'you' can no longer even walk,

Bloody dragging on the ground, looking at the white eagle falling in front of you,

Between you, the only one left...probably only one child. 』

Kleinshed wondered if Siegfried, when he died, thought of his heir, poor Gunther, who lost his father less than a year after he was born.And the cause of his death is absolutely disgraceful, no matter to the Dankrate family or the Sigmund family, the only wrong thing that man has done in his life must not be known to anyone.

"Your life is exhausting, let me protect everything you leave behind."

The world seems to be an infinite birdcage, and Clinesed's room has been icy and cold since that day, as if it were an icehouse.

The younger brother Gisele Haier also offered to ask her to live in his court many times, but Clinesed still did not agree.

Because the last time I saw Siegfried was at the door of her room, he looked like he was covered in blood.

"It's okay, I'll stick to it, it's okay. 』

Unknowingly, the three words 'it's okay' became her mantra, just like her husband always suddenly said apologetic words.

It's just that these three words have been gradually corroded by the darkness for Clinesed, bit by bit obliterating her last sanity.

"..."

While dressing up, Clinesed looked at herself, her tear-stained appearance was no longer that of the Burgundian princess who loved to laugh, but originally, she was also quite a low self-esteem and even pessimistic person.

『I am the person who likes Siegfried the most in this world! 』

Maybe it's because I'm too lonely, my room is always shunned by people every night, so without the fresh popularity and warm daily life, Clinesed's last sanity is wiped out by such indifference, I saw my own phantom.

"From the moment I saw him, I thought it would be great if my husband was a man like him! 』

"... go away."

Seeing the young princess dangling in front of her, Clinesid lowered her face and spoke into the air.

And, she quickly turned her gaze back to the mirror and combed her short hair.

"why?Don't you love Siegfried?Don't you love him now? 』

And that girl refused to leave, instead hugged Clinesed's neck from behind, pressing on her.

"Since you don't love him, there's no need to be sad, right?But I'm crying right now, look...』

"..."

Suddenly her eyes widened, and the black-haired woman looked at herself in the mirror, feeling a little strange.

Why did she become like this?Why is she the only one standing here crying?

What about Gunter?What about Brunhilde?What about the husband's most trusted friend?

Why is no one here now?Why only you have to face it?

Suddenly he smashed the wooden comb in his hand against the mirror, and suddenly he split into countless Clinesids. Some of them were weeping, some were sneering, but none of them were themselves, nor the current Clinsid.

"Ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh!!!"

Finally, her sanity completely collapsed, and since then, Clinesed, who loved and admired her husband so much, vanished into thin air and became a terrible avenger.

"enough……!I don't want to hold on anymore! 』

"Siegfried... Siegfried... why...why did you die... did you really die because of me?"

Clinesed couldn't regain her composure, so she could only grab the mirror and ask, as if someone among the countless selves would always give her the answer, "Behind all your great achievements, have you ever considered your family's feelings?" ...Even if you ignore my feelings, Gunter is your child...you should take care of him!!! and your father...do you really want to keep them..."

The crying woman in front of the mirror slowly sat on the ground while speaking, then suddenly raised her hand and shook her head desperately.

"No...why should I think like that...I can't think like that...!

Siegfried... did the right thing,

I know it, I know it.

However, I already knew I was wrong...

Why is it still..."

In the end, Clinesid clutched her hair tightly and fell to the ground crying.

It's gone, she can't hold on anymore,

Now she can't go anywhere, and she doesn't have the face to meet their children,

This Burgundy is both the den of the enemy and her home.

If only Siegfried had never come to Burgundy, none of this would have happened if Siegfried hadn't been there.

"..."

Unknowingly, when Clinesid gradually regained consciousness, she raised her head from the ground and looked at the small bottle of potion placed on the corner of the table.

"Yes, it's not my fault, it's not my fault..."

The golden pupils lost their brilliance at this moment, and Klinesed's consciousness finally turned to give up the master, and tremblingly took the bottle of potion.

"All of this, whether it's love or despair...you gave it to me, Siegfried..."

- It's you guys who messed up my life.

"I already... don't want to hold on anymore...

Your thoughts, your kindness...

Including alms without expecting anything in return, no good man ever lived to die laughing. 』

Not long after, or a longer period of time passed, it was not until Aichaier of the Huns sent an envoy to propose marriage, but Clinesed repeatedly declined many times before finally agreeing.

Then, a few years later, Clinesid gave birth to a child for Aichai, named Ortlip.

But this child doesn't look like Aichai at all, but somewhat similar to Clinesed and even a Burgundian, and also has beautiful black hair and golden pupils. Aichai loves this child very much, Therefore, she loves Clinesid even more.

But in the same bed, different dreams, Clinesed lives a tormenting life every night, marrying a non-Christian man is an unacceptable fact for her, even Ai Chaer has the same handsomeness as her ex-husband , but Clinesid's heart has reached a point where no one can comfort her.

Perhaps later generations will say that it would be great if Siegfried miraculously came to Clinesed at that time. The hero, Clinesid, was also unmoved.

Because, in the depths of her heart, there is no emotion, even if it is a warm and heart-pounding memory, Clinesed has no feelings at all.

"My whole life is probably a story written by someone. I can't control my own life. 』

After countless desperations, Clinesed raised her head, even looking at the azure blue sky, it was as dim as gray.

In the end, what should I do if I want to be myself again...

At that time, she didn't marry Aichai to avenge Siegfried, and it is unnecessary to get around Siegfried at this time.

——After all, she did accept that person's death.

However, there is one point, whether a person's natural freedom is to satisfy the status quo or to strive for it by himself, and who is his enemy...

Ai Chaier, she doesn't actually love him, and even Clinesed knows that he is far inferior to Siegfried,

Gong Te, the matter has come to this point, Clinesed knows that she has no reason to forgive her brother,

And Hagen, in front of him, is this man who ruined her life after succeeding Siegfried.

Die, die...

As in Burgundy, she had cursed bitterly.

Since the elder brother's wife invited them back to Burgundy for the reason of visiting relatives, then she, Clinesid, also used this reason to invite them to the Huns.

Anyway, no matter where you visit your relatives, someone has to die.

As for Gunter and Hagen, especially the latter, he must die, he does not deserve to live in this world.

With her vision suddenly widened, Clinesed felt the free air for the first time, and she quickly asked Eichaier to invite Gunter to visit his relatives in the Huns.

But the reality, from this moment on, deviated from her vision, and even got farther and farther away.

"Hagen, King Gundt's subordinate, got the Rhine Gold from King Siegfried. Even if he is immortal, he will always be inexhaustible."

"As long as we can offer the Burgundians an equal share of the relationship between the Queen and King Conte, I don't think they will refuse."

"Rhingold was originally obtained by unclean means, but the Hungarian Kingdom really needs considerable wealth to expand its power, so there is no need to pay attention to the origin of Rhinegold."

From the beginning, Clinesed only hoped that certain two people would be punished, even if God gave them time to repent, she would never allow it... But now, the plan has become different: Aichaier and his people They all started thinking about Rheingold, but the unfortunate Rudiger didn't know it...

However, such a plan was quickly known by King Dietrich and others, so more people got involved and the situation got out of control.

But what's even more ridiculous is that Clinesed herself was also involved in these men's pursuit of fame and fortune.

But it's good, it's good, isn't it?

Anyway, in the end, I just hoped that they would die, so Clinesed really didn't care what happened in the middle.

However, for Aichaier, Clinesed might not be able to forgive him.

Because he made this decision, and because this decision was against that person's wishes.

"Rhingold... cannot appear in front of the world."

Obviously he has been dead for seven years, but he still remembers his words very clearly. Maybe he forgot in his heart, but there is still something left in his mind.

"Siegfried, I've already... I won't remember you anymore. 』

With such a disheartened thought, Klinesed had long since given up struggling. From the very beginning, she shouldn't have been so obedient to her feelings, but she knew that even without herself, Siegfried was destined not to live long.

Afterwards, Clinesed took a deep breath, called Eichail's son Ortlip, and took him to the kitchen to cook some of his favorite food.

"Why did my mother make so many delicious things for me today? Oert is so happy."

The seven-year-old child sat on the seat shaking his feet, happily looking at the sumptuous banquet in front of him, while his mother stood behind him, holding the child's shoulder with one hand and holding a dagger in the other.

"Because you, Aichai, were bewitched by that kind of thing, you should pay the price...

Also because you agreed to that matter, I can't let you use his things.

I'll kill your son here and make broth for you,

In this way, no matter how brave the hero is, he will cry bitterly, right? 』

"Mother, I'm so happy. You've never talked to me. Today must be my birthday, right?!"

"..."

The black-haired mother smiled without responding, but slowly approached the child's soft neck with the blade, but she stopped when she stabbed it down.

"But his face is all wrinkled together, will he be like you in the future?"』

Perhaps, just for a moment of sobriety, Clinesid suddenly remembered that when she was hugging her first child, the man was sitting beside her, unknowingly embracing her shoulders.

At that time... what was Siegfried's expression...

When Gunter was born, was the dragon-slaying hero happy or sad...?

Can't remember, can't remember...

"...No, not you."

In fact, this is the first time Clinesid has spoken to Ortlip on her own initiative, and she knows that today is the day Gunther was born.

"You are not my child, you are not my child..."

At this moment, Clinesed took a step back, but subconsciously hid the dagger in her hand.

And poor Ortlip also turned his head, looking at her very puzzled and even aggrieved.

Since he was a child, he has never felt the love of Clinesed, and even more often, like now, seeing her indifference as nothing, he is a stain.

"After this meal, leave this palace for me and never come back."

As a mother, Clinesed suddenly dropped these words, and walked out without coming back.

And the unfortunate Ortlip was taken out of the palace in a short while, and went to Heimburg, his father's hometown, mysteriously.

After that, everything fell into madness, but it can be said that the song of the Nibelung people here is a story about the annihilation of individuality and has nothing to do with chivalry morality.

As for the so-called truth, all people have caused evil results because of greed. Even in the next 24 years, all Burgundians have paid a painful price.

It's just Clinesed, no one knows whether she was thinking of repentance or unwillingness when she died?

Gunter is dead, Hagen is dead, Ai Chaier paid the price for greed,

But at the end, Clinesied still sent Rhinegold to the unparalleled darkness.Maybe, I hope so, if a miracle can happen, let it return to the real owner, and then... everyone can be forgiven by him.

"You are a king, not just a knight,

So cheer up, you'll hear your heart,

Whatever the wish, though I shall no longer wish,

There's no need to even look forward to it,

I just hope, for a moment,

The light of Balmont can shine for me,

As the white eagle once guarded the cage,

White birds are singing to him. 』

So far, Clinested has no regrets,

It's just that if you want to say that the only thing you can't let go of... no, I'm ashamed...

It was the marriage of her brother Gisele Hale.

So my own selfish, lovely brother lost his life forever,

His fair bride wept before her,

This reminded Clinesid,

How Brunhilde watched himself weep over Siegfried's death.

On the sparkling Rhine, perhaps from the birth of that knight,

Doomed not to be peaceful, while cursed gold dips in glass-colored water,

The guardian imposed a guard, and let countless people bleed for it,

He would laugh, and wait,

Maybe like myself,

It's all from the struggle to the end,

Poor man who gave up hope.

"If, given a second chance,

If you could give me another life,

My wish is probably to realize or fulfill someone's wish,

——Just like the husband I loved so much, our child, and Gisele Hale who really wanted to bless him. "

『They are the three most important people to me, Clinesed. 』

==========================================

So far, the whole series of Rhinebooks has come to an end.

No new parts will be added, and there will be no secondary printing and sales.

For me, every time I complete a pit, there will be no souvenirs,

So forgery and long are really over,

An Iliad, it took me almost two and a half years to think of the stories of the two eras,

The plots are all ended in the book, without any regrets left,

But this time I wrote a lot of warm-up and final chapters for the Rhinebook.

After all, I really like the story of the song of the Nibelung,

And this story, no matter which character it is, I can write a hundred chapters of autobiography,

In this way, I may be a little sorry for the beautiful curse next door [Squatting, I didn’t abandon the pit, I really don’t have OTZ]

In fact, for the Kemei in the Rhinebook, they may prefer or often create soft girls,

When it turns black, it's just a sinister [squatting] domineering... [Watching the sky...] I really can't write it well...

And Kemei's heart, probably from trying to drive away the sadness, to not wanting to repeatedly deceive herself behind her back,

After all, she missed Siegfried very much, but knew that it was impossible,

Therefore, the hatred accumulated for a long time easily disintegrated the efforts made (accepting Fei Ge's death and living well).

↑However, Kemei probably can’t do such a thing as living well, right?

So the tragedy of the Dutch couple is here OTZ

So, now, take this opportunity to thank this story for staying with me for so long,

Especially thanks to honey, I will continue to work hard in the game of Strange Records.

And the friends who helped me, thank you very much,

In short, I really like the kind of life where I popularize science while brainstorming.

After all, there are too many things that I don't understand, so I will urge myself well in the future.
