Twilight of Shepherd and Calamity

Ch28.0 Side story1-Memorizing

(it is a side story and it is the summary of Eleanor's human life)

This is a memory deep in another person's sleeplike consciousness when someone faints.

When consciousness is sinking and floating as though she is floating up and down in the mighty flood of water, memories are opened from the depths of the mind as if they are the wood floating on the sea to catch as the key to save herself, and the soul that was once isolated by the slumber is connecting back to the body.

-----------------------------------------------------

This night, a Shepherd fell and a life was born.

In the earth pulse, the silver dragon murmured "Eleanor..........you worked hard for everyone.........too hard, you have spent your whole life..........you even.........".

*-------' Take my offering and breath resonance to the world, please.'----*

"Glad that you have a pure soul so I may grant you a new life as a Malak." Though it would be years or hundred years after Eleanor's time and there would be a loss in memory, but that would also be Maotelus's special arrangement to not let the girl to overwork herself again, she may at least rest for a while to learn to live as a Malak. He has lost one dearest to him and he is not gonna let that happen again.

"Please, rest, and enjoy your new life."

--------------------------------------------------------------------

The female Malak felt like someone whispered to her, not only someone who is kind and empathy but actually someone she knew. However, she can't think of his name.

The cool air brought by the rain is the only thing that makes her realize that she is breathing.

".......ah?" unconsciously, she made a sound, then she realized that she can make a sound.

Somehow she believed this is unbelievable, until she felt the soft and wet earth with her hand palm, acknowledged the sky reflected in her eye and so as the birds that flew away.

She tried to believe that she is alive and she somehow also knew that she is a 'Malak' now.

"Just gonna check the sudden cast of mana in my domain and I see. There is a rare thing happening."

"....Rare than your imagination, Zenrus."

Before she figures out what it is, the next voice that came to ears blinked her.

She sat up from the ground, turned around and found only an aged elder with white hair and there also a single tuft of yellow, lightning-bolt hair characterized his image.

If there is only one person, it is impossible to hear a conversation formed with 2 different voices.

She lowered her line of sight, a cat is at her feet.

The cat looking up at her eyes, it is a pure white fat cat with a black diamond-shaped marking on her forehead and wearing a yellow scarf. However, she felt like she beforehand knew that it is more than a cat.

"You are Malak too?" She asked the cat.

"Well, yeah and I came as I feel that a new Malak was born............Although you have seen already a teenager state for an infant, guess you were born of a very strong soul." The fat cat stated calmly.

"..........I...........born...."I murmured. I still not feel real, I grabbed hands and opened them again. I knew my own appearance without looking at a mirror. Stills, I was just convinced to be born.
