The Story of the Fate of the Digital Series

Volume No.11: Moonsea Labyrinth & Many as One (23)

"Helaire?"

Cherubimon was a little surprised to see Hailaier's appearance.

"Fortunately, I arrived in time. That strange Digimon doesn't have any rationality, and it can't be affected by pure purification power. You don't seem to want to hurt it. Is it your acquaintance? Cherubimon .”

Pretending to be confused, Halaire asked about the cherubimon.

"No...it's proof of my sin, I just want to let it go in a non-harmful way, rest in peace. I'm really hypocritical..."

Looking at the Synthetic Digimon who couldn't break out of the magic circle, Cherubimon showed a very bitter smile.

"Have you seen all the records I left?"

"I'm sorry, the text you wrote is completely different from the text of the Nagao World. This experimental facility is very suspicious, so I investigated. Could it be that you are related to this laboratory?"

Hyrel, who told the lie, changed the subject.

"That's right...you can understand it this way."

Sighing slightly, Cherubimon made a certain decision.

"I am very clear that my wishful thinking will not save it. I just want to face the crime I committed and try to save the life I hurt... Haile, I am sorry to involve you. In the unreal In the memory space of a person, insisting on 'evil deeds' is more realistic and reliable than hypocritical salvation."

"Helaire, can you help me get rid of it together? That Digimon needs to be taken seriously before it can be eliminated. I will explain later."

"Ok."

After a light response, Hylael and Cherubimon attacked the synthetic Digimon together.

Under the continuous bombardment of the holy light and lightning, the huge body of the synthetic digimon began to be torn apart.

The swelling pain, hatred and despair, it's time to end.

Accompanied by the screams of hatred, the body of the synthetic Digimon that lost the support of the magic square fell to the ground and collapsed.In the end, only gray dust remained.

The sound of resentment disappeared, and the devastated confinement room fell into silence.

"Before entering the laboratory, you must have heard the recording I left behind. Now, let me confess the sins I have committed..."

After a short silence, Cherubimon spoke first.

"Helaire, you should know that I am a Digimon from the digital world, right?"

"Yes, Lucifero has already said it."

"Actually, the digital world has been full of turmoil and chaos a long time ago; especially wars, which spread almost all over the world. The first Digimon to wage war are the demon king and the dark system Digimon who rebelled against the gods. In order to fight against the dark forces, it is necessary to call More volunteers are coming to join the war. The dark forces in the past are bigger than imagined; therefore, the three angels responsible for protecting the light of the digital world need to shoulder more responsibilities..."

Cherubimon, with a distressed expression on its face, is talking about its past.

"As one of the three angels, in order to increase the way to fight against the dark forces, I established this special unknown laboratory in a neutral zone. I began to study the dark system Digimon, especially the dark subspecies... "

"In order to confirm my reference, many Digimon of the dark system were sent here and became my experimental materials. Due to what I did, those Digimon who were tortured physically and mentally became irrational beasts, or their bodies slowed down. Slowly melt until death. Under my experiments and brainwashing, the successful experimental products that were forced to evolve into non-darkness code beasts have all become special special creatures that have no pain, no fear, and no soul. Their lives are extremely short and they obey me. Soldier."

"In the past, I had no mercy for the dark system Digimon, I just wanted to protect the forces of light; that's why I used those dark subspecies Digimon as experimental products, and put the successfully transformed Digimon into the battlefield as a way To prove myself and gain recognition... But as time goes by, the cries and hateful curses of those dark-column Digimons locked in the laboratory are always heard; the more I hear the voice, the more I will be affected I am condemned by my conscience, but I, who concealed the truth, continue to do evil..."

"Under physical and mental pressure, after sending the last batch of special soldiers into the battlefield, I temporarily gave up the research in the laboratory, and chose to become a school teacher in my hometown, and cultivated by the way. Until a special Digo beast After becoming my apprentice, perhaps influenced by that child, my attitude towards the Digimon of the dark system has slowly changed..."

When mentioning that special Digomon, Cherubimon smiled slightly.

"Digomon is very smart. It learns quickly and likes to explore new knowledge. It is also a kind child. For the Digimon of the dark system, the child has never shown disgust or disgust, but pity. It believes in darkness. The coefficient Digimon has a kind side and believes that Digimon are equal. But ironically, its evolution does not have any 'good' qualifications..."

Afterwards, the smile on Cherubimon's face turned bitter again.

"Digomon evolved into a dark subspecies. The difference is that the child is different from other newly evolved dark subspecies Digimon; because it did not show any violent state, it is still rational and kind. But for my hometown As far as the dark system Digimon is concerned, it is a taboo existence and mistakes, even if it has not made any mistakes, it still faces unfair treatment."

"Even if the dead dark subspecies Digimon is reborn, its evolution will still not change in any way. I really want to help that child get rid of the identity of the dark subspecies, so while it was imprisoned, I restarted the experiment in the laboratory. Working, trying to figure out how to convert the dark subspecies of Digimon to a normal state. In the end, everything I tried, except for increasing the number of poor victims, failed..."

"It was only later that I realized that I didn't really want to protect the forces of light. I just wanted to satisfy my distorted thirst for knowledge and my curiosity about the changes in the experimental subjects... I am a completely demon that blasphemes life."

"I can't help that child, I can only exile it, and pray that the monster can live strong... Heh, he did it, although many unpleasant processes happened in the middle, but now he, for the digital world It's an important existence. It's just... I hope his partner can get out of the shadows, after all, the incident a year ago made the two of them strangers. Ah, it's a bit off topic, let's continue talking about the laboratory... "

"At the end of the war, my hometown was attacked by the demon army led by the ultimate monster, and the city was completely occupied. For the safety of the people, we three angels had to leave the hometown with the people. In order to regain the hometown, fight against Enemy, we have assembled a lot of forces from all sides, but it is still not enough... That's right, I transformed the Digimon that failed the experiment again, fused them together, and transformed them into synthetic Digimon that can only slaughter Dark Digimon.  … ...Yes, that composite Digimon that hates me is an uncontrollable failure."

"In the final ending, I blew myself up in the laboratory before participating in the war. I wanted to bury this evil place... Maybe it was karma. I was killed by the ultimate monster when I fought with the ultimate monster. But , but after I died, I implicated the Ultimate Angel Beast, causing him to seal the Ultimate Warcraft at the cost of his life, and even the reborn Digi-eggs were polluted by evil power for thousands of years... Even after death and rebirth , I don’t think that the crime of blasphemy against life is worthy of forgiveness; until now, I have concealed my sin. Not only that... A year ago, I even indirectly used human children to fight for the future of the digital world, to Fighting against real enemies that only belong to the digital world. I, who helped the children fight against foreign enemies, made up for it completely insignificant... Until later, when I learned that the group of children were killed by the enemy with cruel means, I was both surprised and guilty. If it wasn't for the gods of the digital world to give the children miracles and allow them to regain their lives, their future would have ended here... Until now, I still feel guilty for those few humans, whether it is the children who have obtained the miracle of life We are the only girl who escaped death..."

"...Actually, one of the human beings killed by the enemy also included Zhenghao."

Cherubimon whispered guiltily

"I have been trying to redeem my sins, but I have never really succeeded. I even deceive and use innocent people who don't know the truth..."

"Cherubimon, do you think that no matter how sinful people are, they can change? As long as they are willing to try, they can become good people?"

After listening to all of Cherubimon's words, Halaire suddenly asked.

"As long as goodness remains in the heart, evildoers are qualified to become good people."

Cherubimon replied.

"Cherubimon, you did commit evil deeds in the past, but those actions were also caused by the circumstances at that time; I know very well that racial hatred and war will destroy conscience... Indeed, evil deeds will not be forgiven, Those who commit evil deeds must bear their sins and make atonement. At least, you have not really escaped your sins, you have worked hard to be a truly good person, and you are still eligible to be redeemed.”

Facing the sight of the cherubimon, Halaire seemed to have a slightly guilty smile.

"The sins I have committed are countless. Unlike you, I have never regretted the evil deeds I committed; as long as I want to achieve my goal, I will continue my evil deeds. Therefore, the Moonsea Labyrinth is my The last 'place of shelter'..."

"Halaire... Are you from a Digimon from the Digital World? Or a Digimon from the World of Naked Trees?"

Inexplicably, the cherubim has more doubts about him than the beast.In fact, when Zhenghao saw Hailaier for the first time, he had a strong hatred for Hailaier.Although Zhenghao doesn't like Digimon very much, he won't hate a Digimon whom he met for the first time for no reason, especially the intuitive hatred.Moreover, when Hailaier and Zhenghao talked about the topic of sin, his words were very deliberate.Especially the concern for Zhenghao, it's more like being sorry or making up for it...

At that time, I began to pay attention to Hailaier; and, for Cherubimon, Hailaier always has a strange sense of familiarity.

"Heh, it doesn't matter where I come from. After all, I can't go anywhere..."

Without answering Cherubimon's question directly, a lonely smile appeared on Hailaier's face.

"This is how fate punished me."

"..."

Cherubimon wanted to say something, but finally gave up and changed the subject.

"I think we should leave here. Hailaier, thank you for making me think a lot, and let me know how to face up to the sins I committed. I believe that everyone can go back to their hometowns, and after returning to the digital world , I will confess what I have done. Indeed, it is very difficult and very naive. But I will still choose to face the world with sincerity. I am sure that there will be many challenges in the future that must be gritted. The moment of failure again; but I know very well that I still have friends who are worthy of relying on and asking for help, so it is much easier than being alone. In the digital world, three angels are needed to protect..."

"I really appreciate you..."

Cherubimon thanked Halaire.

thanks?I don't deserve to be thanked by others...
