The Knight Eldania S2
90: Eldania

[What is the purpose? He's a servant, which means that if it's not wrong he's a spirit. Did it have anything to do with Ethan's friend? Did he make her like that? But if it is like that...., again back, what is the purpose?] Think Eldania.

When the contents of his head were enveloped in all thoughts about the figure of the woman who was a Servant, suddenly the sound of flapping wings, managed to attract the attention of Eldania.

KEPAKKS..........

Slowly the creature from the owner of the pair of wings immediately landed on his shoulder, and at the same time when he heard the swift footsteps coming closer, Eldania immediately looked back.

[He has no other job but to pursue me. Is he crazy about me?] He thought, and looked at Ethan with a probing look. 

Then when his beloved bird had landed on his right shoulder, and Ethan was already 10 meters in front of him, suddenly the boy immediately stopped by making a frozen face.

The sky that then turned dark, indicating that the night had really come. This proves that the sky has lost its light. 

But the light was immediately replaced with a row of lights that immediately lit simultaneously on each street of the city of Dilshade.

But is that all?

What Ethan saw was a row of lights that just lit up?

Apparently not.

That's not true at all.

Ethan, when he learned that the darkness had momentarily disappeared, a figure immediately stopped right in the middle of the road under one of the lights, making Ethan who was chasing this woman figure from behind him, immediately gasped with the existence of the woman who immediately turned to him.

It makes Ethan immediately stop chasing after him, and just keep quiet.

Wh why?

KWAK.......

Along with a hawk on her shoulder, the owner of the ruby-colored eyes, the girl immediately stared at him with a glare of calculating cold eyes that seemed to start to sink into the darkness.

A woman who turns into another person when she is in the dark. 

That's Eldania in Ethan's eyes.

Ethan reflexes his own saliva. 

[He-] Ethan, who lost his words when he saw this figure, froze.

TAPS........TAPS.......TAP......TAPS.......

With a slow step, this woman continued to take one step at a time, and continued to walk closer to Ethan.

"What's wrong? Why silence?"

A voice from the two questions, in an instant instantly echoed within Ethan's brain.

"Are you scared now?"

One more question was directed to Ethan. 

Ethan, who did not know the meaning of the question, immediately asked again. "Fear what?"

Still walking closer, Ethan reflexively took one step back because the cold aura that suddenly appeared was very pressing on his body.

"You're a demon, but your face shows fear for me."

The sentence was answered again, and made Ethan pause for a moment.

"No!" The answer.

"Then why are you walking backwards? You're obviously scared of me, aren't you?" Ask Eldania again.

His figure continued to approach him, and the answer made Ethan realize not to walk backwards again, if it was really not afraid of the figure in front of him. 

"I said no! I'm not afraid of you! Why should I be afraid too?" Answer Ethan.

But what he enjoyed in Eldania's eyes when he looked at Ethan was the face of the expression that was trying to fight the fear that was engulfing his feelings.

"Well, if you're not afraid means you're not afraid of death?"

[What death? What does he mean by that?!] And Ethan was really, really slowly feeling the cold that kept piercing the thin skin. 

But not only that, every cold sentence that has been thrown for Ethan feels not just a sentence of speech.

There was an implied hidden meaning behind every sentence he heard.

But what is it?.

"My answer, are you afraid of death?”

"No! No matter if the devil has a long life, if it is destined to die, I will inevitably have to face it too!" Ethan answered firmly.

"If so, what if your death is already in front of your eyes, right now?" Ask again.

"Stop! Are you playing with me?! " Then Ethan asked doubtfully with all the questions that had been heard in his head.

There was no answer at all other than the wind accompanied by a sudden mist coming and instantly blowing fiercely enveloped the surroundings.

The thick fog that limited the distance of his sight, made Ethan turn wary.

[What the fuck is with this fog? Why did it suddenly come? I wanted to go after the girl, but why is it like this? Am I in someone's illusion? ] Ethan, who was not very fond of the situation, immediately pulled out his sword, and swung it hard so that the fog that surrounded him instantly disappeared.

SYUHT.........

But his sword had no effect at all on the fog that was surrounding him.

[Why else is this? Why doesn't my sword work?!] Ethan instantly cursed the sword he had in his grasp, and with a few slashes of the spell, his sword was instantly engulfed in flames, then slashed back at the white mist.

SHAAKK...........

As if just cutting the empty wind, again he did not get the results of his efforts.

"Dania! You're here, right?!" Ethan suddenly shouted by calling the girl's name because he could not stand the situation so suddenly became complicated like this. " Get out! No need to make jokes like this!" Ethan Shouts.

"Who else is Dania?" Suddenly the voice came to greet him.

[Who? If this voice does not belong to him, then who is talking to me?] Ethan thought, the less he understood.

He was increasingly clueless about his own puzzling situation. 

Though clearly, he was clearly talking to her, because that voice was Eldania's own.

despite using a low voice filled with emphasis, Ethan still recognizes who the voice he hears.

"Take me Nathan! Between your death and his death, which one will you choose?"

"I am Ethan! Not Nathan! Whose death was it with whom?!” Ethan shouted with a voice that kept appearing.

"No need to be told, you should know better."

"Whose death are you ma-" Ethan instantly realizes something. The death of the two choices was himself with his brother.

That's what the voice just meant.

"Say..from your innermost heart, which choice will you choose, Nathan?"

Again called Nathan, when he trusted himself very much, that he was named Ethan, not Nathan.

But if you remember a flashback some time ago, when the girl told you there was a possibility her name was deliberately exchanged, it could be a new fact. 

His twin brother is Ethan and he is the real Nathan, and he is Ethan's real brother.

With so much clarity already, he immediately thought deeply if himself was Nathan, a younger brother. So all this time he had completely snatched away all of his brother's property.

In other words, the two choices indicated between his death and the death of his brother, he was the one who chose the choice himself.

"What did you choose?"

With a frustrated face, the mouth that had kept silent finally called out his voice. 

"He!" With his head down, he answered again. "If you think it's good, I don't find a face at school."

He no longer cared about who was asking him questions, because most importantly he would answer all the questions that needed to be answered.

"Why and what is your excuse? Does your grudge actually often say the word hate to your own brother?"

"..........!" Instantly Ethan aka Nathan is immediately turned into a face full of wrath with a loose laugh. "Hahaha. Hating him so much that I wanted to kill him with my own hands, because he had the same face!"

'Of course I love him, and feel like killing myself, because my face is the same as his.'

"Seeing him suffer with all his flaws, it's fun." Say again.

'Seeing my brother suffer by feigning helplessness, greatly irritates me.'

"And taking everything, I'm able to live more comfortably than he does."

'Capturing all of hers is not my will, and makes me very uncomfortable.'

"So Nathan! Nah! But Ethan...my brother I hate the most, as a brother he deserves to die for his sister!"

'Ethan, as my dear sister, I deserve to die for all my deeds.'

"Is that your choice?"

"Yes.., if you are a grim reaper, you better do it quickly, so as not to waste your precious time." Ethan or rather the real Nathan.

In the fog that was still enveloping, the sound of footsteps continued to sound, and it sounded closer and closer.

TAPS..........TAPS...........TAPS.........

Finally, a few steps were taken, making his figure almost clearly visible.

Without leaving even a moment, before clearly showing his form, a sword tip was immediately aimed at Nathan's heart.

"................!" And who would dare to point a sword at him?
