Chapter 95

Auroras embroidered the night sky. And a girl left all alone.

All dreams have ended, leaving only silence.

The purple mist revealed all the love that Alisa’s parents had left behind, and the faint remnants of their unconsciousness exhausted all their strength.

I let out a cold sigh, overwhelmed by the silence.

“…….”

“…Alisa.”

Yeonseo quietly approached Alisa, who was gazing up at the night sky, and embraced her.

“…I want to.”

“Huh?”

“I want to see my real dad’s hometown… and the real aurora.”

“Alright. Let’s go see it together.”

Finally, the girl waiting for death on the bed found a purpose in life.

But…

In three months,

“She will be completely absorbed by the Magical Girl of [Death].”

The descent of the Born 3-Star Magical Girl.

The descent of the Magical Girl of [Death].

I have the duty to revive the souls of hundreds of girls who died at the hands of scavengers.

“I must bring their souls back from the domain of [Death].”

Ordinary people have constraints that make it impossible, but I must persuade that death of Magical Girls can be reversed.

“…….”

It was not easy to accept that in front of Alisa’s will, which began to flicker once more like a candle in the biting winter wind.

I couldn’t say a word because it felt too difficult.

Then, I heard the sound of cold footsteps walking beside me through the snow.

SSSS

SSSS

“Alisa.”

The Magical Girl of [Death], who had silently watched everything until now, approached Alisa. Seeing this, Yeonseo gasped and hid Alisa behind her, glaring at her.

“Alisa has already said goodbye to her parents! What do you want?!”

“Don’t worry. Alisa knows what I want to say.”

“Huh?”

Hearing that, Alisa stepped forward from behind Yeonseo.

The two facing each other, both named Alisa.

The two girls, who looked completely identical, could only be distinguished by their expressions and the direction of the footprints in the snow.

One was expressionless.

One hesitated.

“Alisa.”

“Alisa.”

The two girls called out the same name to each other.

Born from the world of death.

“Is the promise of giving me a name still valid?”

“…Yes. Thanks to another Alisa, I was able to exist.”

“Is the wish to still want to die still valid?”

“…No. I want to fulfill my dad’s dreams… in the real world.”

The expressionless Alisa reached out her white hand and took the hand of the hesitant Alisa.

“Our names are Alisa.”

“…We are the same Alisa.”

One became Alisa by taking the life of a girl remaining in unconsciousness from a dark raven.

The other became Alisa due to a cozy death in a chaotic, sleeping baby mouse.

‘Could it be…?’

I had no choice but to hold my breath, thinking of a possibility.

The descent of Born 3-Star, excluding [Revelation].

The hidden constraint inside became the death of the girl who would lend her eyes to the world.

That could automatically happen when the second Red Broadcast takes place.

Or it could happen as a result of the girl’s death who lends her eyes.

“Alisa, do you have something you want to do from now on?”

“…I want to wake up now.”

The hesitant Alisa answered firmly while bowing her head in guilt for breaking the promise.

“I want to wake up and see what Dad wanted to show me…”

“Is that so?”

“Sorry.”

“What are you sorry for?”

“I broke my promise. You have things to do too.”

The expressionless Alisa, the dark raven, for the first time, ever so slightly…

Gave a faint smile that seemed like it could disappear at any moment.

“I must have said it. If this world meant nothing to you…”

“Then it means nothing to me either.”

“If this world is where your father’s love resides…”

“This world has meaning.”

“Alisa.”

“Yeah.”

“Are you confident you’ll be happy?”

“…I don’t know.”

For a girl who had slept on the bed her whole life, this world felt far and terrifying.

An unknown world.

“Still…”

Alisa looked at Yeonseo, who had cheered for her from the side.

Yeonseo, perhaps sensing something from the conversation between the two Alisas, was staring wide-eyed with her mouth covered.

“The dreams that Anastasia showed me. And the countless illusions.”

Eating delicious things.

Seeing beautiful things.

Playing in warm places.

“If that is how the world looks, then if it’s what my dad wanted to show me…”

For the first time, Alisa’s will turned toward the outside world rather than the hospital or a fairy tale.

For the first time since being born, she desired a warm outside world instead of the death she had wanted.

“I want to see it.”

“I see.”

The other expressionless Alisa closed her eyes. And from her chest, much like the dark sky in which the aurora rises, an indigo glass star emerged, gently glowing.

Three massive indigo star lights floated in a triangle, revealing a great presence like constellations in the sky.

The light of death.

Cold and quiet, but a light that guided someone to see this world for the first time.

“Then for me, this world will become a gift to you.”

“W-what are you trying to say…?”

“Alisa.”

“…Yeah.”

The indigo glowing Alisa raised her hand and gently held the face of the other Alisa looking at her.

“Because you gave me my name, I was able to become who I am.”

“But that’s…!”

“Because you gave me the name Alisa, which was the only thing you had and the most precious. I was able to create this world.”

In the serene snowfield illuminated by the aurora, between the two girls with an indigo glowing star,

The indigo star flowed over to the other Alisa.

The Alisa who received the star shed tears as if she couldn’t believe it,

And the Alisa who gave the star smiled in relief and blessed her.

A miracle that only two beings sharing the same name could show.

“Therefore, I will disappear in this world as Alisa.”

“You will be reborn as the Magical Girl of [Death].”

“What will happen to you?”

“Alisa.”

“Please answer…! If you disappear too…!”

“Alisa.”

“I don’t need to remain…! I just want to see my dad’s hometown…!”

“Alisa.”

“…Yeah.”

The girl who became Alisa from the Magical Girl of [Death] smiled.

“Congratulations on being born into this world. Go see a lot of things.”

The indigo aura that had spread throughout the death world poured down.

The death aura pouring down like meteor showers.

They began to gather toward the glass star held by one girl.

The girl slowly turning hazy looked at it with satisfaction.

“I’m glad. That this world is no longer meaningless.”

“I will definitely be happy.”

Holding the indigo glass star and receiving the death aura, the girl shouted loudly.

“I!! I will live a happy life!!”

Dad.

Mom.

And another me.

Confirming the hearts of those who had cheered for her while she slowly faded in the world of death, the girl shouted loudly.

“I will see many things and live happily like a dream!!”

“…Yeah.”

The now completely hazy dark raven confirmed the shining will to live in Alisa’s eyes.

“Anastasia.”

“Yeah…?”

“I hope you teach the Magical Girl of [Death] about the outside world. Please do what I couldn’t.”

“Yes, I will definitely do it.”

Yeonseo nodded, filled with certainty.

“It would be good to talk to the white rabbit-like Magical Girl.”

“Yeah.”

Thinking of how the dark raven describes, the white rabbit would probably be the Goddess of [Start]. And she chose to change Alisa’s destiny instead of descending for a tea party…

“It would be good to talk to the brown cat.”

“But the Magical Girl of [War]…”

“The brown cat desires chaos but doesn’t lie.”

“Yeah.”

“Even if it’s not persuasion, just choose the best option.”

“Got it.”

“The crazy scales merchant… meeting them might be pointless.”

“What?”

I was surprised to hear of the personality the Magical Girl of [Plague] possessed for the first time, but she who was now barely remaining half of her body quietly left just words behind.

“Her essence is a cluster. Spread out. She cannot settle where souls are one.”

“……”

“If you meet her, she will have become someone else.”

“Understood.”

“I hope you can teach the Magical Girl of [Death] many things.”

“Of course. I live for all the Magical Girls.”

Having finished all her words, the dark raven looked at Alisa, who was holding the indigo glass star carefully.

The indigo star lights filling the snowfield.

Endlessly pouring death meteor showers.

We felt our consciousness slowly fading in that spectacle.

The end of the dream.

It meant the annihilation of a personality.

“Magical Girl of [Death]. Be happy.”

The dark raven, who had come suddenly and built a world for one girl, faded away with just the name Alisa,

Becoming the soul of an ordinary girl.

The death of death.

It was the beginning of a new birth.

With the indigo light filling our vision, we opened our eyes in the hospital room.

“Ugh…”

“Phew.”

Yeonseo and I sluggishly got up from the hospital sofa, feeling strange just as we had years ago.

“Al, Alisa!!”

Even while staggering, Yeonseo turned back and called out to the girl with black hair.

“Yeah.”

The girl who had lived for 16 years between dreams and death now awakened in the world of light.

“…Thank you.”

“Alisa!”

Yeonseo rushed to Alisa and hugged her.

And the two girls shared their warmth for a moment.

“…Anastasia.”

“Call me Asha.”

“Okay. Asha.”

Alisa tried to get up, all shaking from Yeonseo’s arms.

“It’s dangerous to get up suddenly!”

“It’s okay, I’m fine.”

Wobble

Yeonseo supported Alisa’s body as she tried to rise from the bed.

I approached them and supported Alisa from the other side.

Alisa, still trembling, held the indigo glass star in one hand and said with a quivering voice.

“I want to… go out.”

“Yeah.”

“Let’s do that.”

We supported Alisa as we headed out of the hospital.

“Alisa?!”

“Oh my.”

“I can’t believe it.”

The elderly man with a gloomy expression drinking and the long-term hospitalized patients were astonished at our sight, while the nurses hurriedly called for a doctor and ran off.

“Where shall we go, Alisa?”

“Out…side.”

“Okay.”

We moved slowly,

Gradually,

Heading outside.

“God.”

“Alisa?!”

“No way.”

The three security guards, who were always kind to Alisa’s parents, turned to surprise as we moved down the corridor.

A drunken boatman.

Countless soldier patients with lengthy treatment charts.

Three bear security guards.

While slowly taking in the original forms of the inhabitants of the realm of death,

We opened the hospital’s front door where the bright sunlight poured in.

Creeeak—

The sound of the rusty door opening.

And before our eyes was a world that was familiar to us but strange to Alisa.

The sun was shining overhead, not a giant chicken.

In the distance, a black bird startled by the sound of the door opening flew away.

The dark raven.

“…Goodbye.”

The girl who had been curled up in death,

Was being born into this world for the first time.
