The 31st Piece Turns the Tables

Episode 524:

Phil Sword was an old man who was now in his final years. By the time Kang Seol played him, he had already grown gray hair and had age spots.

In the past, he had the misfortune of being attacked during a battle and falling from his horse, sustaining a serious head injury.

He stuttered for a while, had difficulty moving for a while, and suffered from a fever for a while.

Also, for a while, he was irritable like a child, for a while he was unable to use the toilet, and for a while… he

started forgetting people.

His world began to fall apart.

Philsword’s mind was devastated and his health deteriorated to the point where he could not choose a choice.

In the end, Kang Seol let him go.

And again, as time passed, Snowfall came to Phil Sword’s side. To the side of an elderly person who has suffered from dementia for a long time and whose days are coming to an end.

As if it had to be that way.

As if it had to happen that way.

* * *

“Are you guys going to sleep at my house again today?”

Phil Sword ravenously ate the food on the plate in front of him and asked Kang Seol and the two knights.

Kang Seol stopped chewing his food and smiled and nodded.

“wow! exciting! Really? “I promised!”

“Yes, Phil Sword.”

“Hehehehe… hurry up and eat! “I have a lot to do today!”

Dadadada…

“Oh my… Father! Be careful….”

“Hahahaha!”

“Phew….”

Philsword’s daughter Elaine.

A middle-aged woman who greeted Kangseol and his party when they arrived at the mansion.

“… Thank you. Thanks to you, my father has looked happy these past few days.”

“….”

Elaine’s words were sincere.

And it was also true.

Even though Phil Sword had a long history, he ran wild and played like a child.

Thanks to this, Kang Seol had to suffer from Pil Sword’s antics while staying at the mansion.

“Let’s ride horses, ride horses!”

“Okay horseback riding!”

Kang Seol lied down and became a horse, and Phil Sword rode on his back.

“Hey! Hey! Run, run!”

“Heeheehee…heeheehee….”

Viewers were distressed when they saw that.

– Hee hee hee hee hee hee hee hee hee hee hee hee hee hee hee hee hee hee hee hee hee hee hee hee hee hee hee hee hee hee hee hee hee hee hee hee hee hee hee hee hee hee hee hee hee hee hee hee hee hee

…

– Am I, the king of shadows, an animal in this mansion?

– This was the full story of the Portra father and daughter murder case.

– Inheritance… All you have to do is get the will… Just a little bit, hehehe… If you hold on… Puhehehehe…

Kang Seol really did her best to hang out with him.

“ruler! I’ll speak next time! Hurry up and get in!”

“That can’t be possible…”

“Hee hee hee… hurry up tahi hee!”

– It’s revenge from earlier.

– Snowfall in Cheongeunchu.

– That’s it for Phil Sword.

Sparsely trimmed muscles were visible on Pilsod’s back and waist. Kang Seol thought it wouldn’t be a big problem and climbed on his back.

“Puh hee hee! Puheeheehee! where should we go? Puhihihing!”

“excuse me! “Let’s go over there!”

“okay! Hee hee hee….”

Kang Seol strengthened his waist and adjusted his weight so as not to put pressure on Feelsword.

Then the door opened.

Kkeeikeik…

“Father, you’re happy…”

“Heeheehee….”

“….”

– Would you like to join the vacant seat in Idu’s carriage?

– The scene of abuse by riding on the back of an elderly person was discovered.

– I don’t think any excuses will be of any use haha.

Elaine suddenly lowered her body, took the same posture as Phil Sword, and made a horse neigh.

“Puh hee hee hee hee hee hee!” “Is it fun, Dad?”

“Fuhihing!” fun! fun!”

“It’s coming up on my back too! “I’m faster!?”

“what? Really? Sorry friend! “They say they’re fast, so I’ll check it out!”

Philsword plays with horses while riding on Elaine’s bent knees.

Elaine worked hard to imitate the horse, even though she was sweating profusely.

They hung out like that for a while.

Pilsod must have been exhausted, so he climbed into bed and fell asleep soundly.

Kang Seol apologized to Elaine for what happened earlier.

“I’m sorry I thought you were playing too hard.”

“No, my father really likes playing with words.”

“… It seemed like that.”

“I still vividly remember riding on my father’s back and playing horse games when I was a kid.”

Elaine looks at Phil Sword, who is sleeping peacefully.

“… Now I have become my father’s horse. “Isn’t it amazing?”

“….”

“Human life is truly strange… to be a child, then an adult, and then become a child again…” “

… I guess so.”

A day later.

Philsword suffered.

“Ugh… Ugh….”

“Father! father!”

“It hurts… My whole body… It hurts…”

It wasn’t an ordinary body aches.

A member of the National Assembly accompanied by a priest made a hasty visit.

Both priests and lawmakers painted a negative future.

“…the time has come.”

“My health will continue to deteriorate. From now on…”

Elaine nodded calmly.

Kang Seol listened to their story and looked at Phil Sword.

He was sitting quietly looking out the window. There was nothing outside the window. No, maybe there is everything he doesn’t enjoy.

Crumbling!

When the next day came, Pilsod got up and left. He walked around the house with a relaxed face, as if he had never been sick.

Cry rrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrm

…

Time for the sky to cry again.

The long rainy season was still in full swing, pouring out streams of water like waterfalls.

“I think a guest is coming.”

“…Field Sword?”

Philsword muttered as he looked out the rainy window. Snowfall was watching the road leading to the mansion and noticed someone walking here.

I went to the mansion with something wrapped in waterproof cloth on my back and without an umbrella.

Thump thump…

Kang Seol quietly listened to the conversation between the man and Elaine.

“How did you come to visit?…”

“Ah, this is my first time greeting you. “I…”

The man’s story was like this.

He is a herbalist who wanders the towns and villages of Portra. He said he received great help from Pil Sword when he was young, and he remembered that and came here.

And perhaps because of the news that Phil Sword was sick, they prepared a gift.

“There are herbs that can help with symptoms…”

“Oh my god, all these…”

“Just steep it in lukewarm water and you will see improvement.”

“It’s not like this, you’re going to meet your father…”

“Oh no. You probably won’t remember me anyway. A guy like me… I’m sure you’ve just bumped into him while passing by… So…”

The herbalist walks away from the mansion.

Philsword muttered.

“That young man from back then…”

“… Yes?”

“huh?”

“Do you remember who it is?”

“who?”

“Just now…”

The herbalist had already disappeared.

“Who came?”

“… no.”

Ordinary old people often face death in old age and loneliness. Because getting older is lonely, sad, and disappointing.

Of course, there are times when it is not.

The small country of Portra Kingdom.

A countryside located in a corner of the kingdom.

People started coming there.

“Before Lord Philsword became like this…”

“Well… I heard you were having a bad time…”

“Is this really Lord Philsword’s mansion?”

Portra’s hero.

A smaller guardian deity of a small kingdom.

The last years of Knight Commander Philsword were not gloomy. People from all walks of life visited him, just as the scent of a flower lingers in the place where it bloomed, attracting people.

A businessman who engages in usury.

A man who has just emerged as a saint of the Knights Templar.

A prostitute whose life was saved.

Even the nobles who were kidnapped and released.

People who had absolutely nothing in common kept coming. Few people came empty-handed.

However, it could not do anything about the body consumed by Philsword’s disease.

He gradually withered away.

Cluck…

Cluck…

“I’ll do it myself!”

“no! “Brother will do it!”

“Father… what are you going to do to the customer…”

“… I will do it.”

Philsword now defecated anywhere and at any time. The illness gradually became more serious.

Strangely enough, as Pilsod’s illness worsened, he distanced himself from his daughter Elaine and instead tried to stay closer to Kang Seol.

Thanks to this, Kangseol took on more than half of the responsibility for Philsword.

The feces-stained cloth was changed and his body was washed with clean water.

“Good mood?”

“huh! Good mood!”

Kang Seol smiled brightly.

It was truly a funny sight.

The old man behaved like a son and the young man behaved like a father.

It wasn’t very awkward.

Philsword is as thin as an old tree.

His life will soon come to an end.

The feelings of those around him looking at him were like those of the audience hoping that the curtain call would never come.

“I had a daughter.”

“….”

Philsword’s tone went back and forth.

Even more so as death approaches.

“It seemed like he had no intention of forming a romantic relationship even after getting older, so I took a photo of the guy I had with me and attached him to him.”

“… It must have been a knight.”

“okay.”

Shoot…

Pilsod was still looking out from the window overlooking the garden.

“He’s dead. “I can’t even leave a child.”

“….”

“I… It’s as if I killed him. “I should have protected it… I should have died instead…”

The reason why Elaine is alone.

Her husband is said to have died in battle. In a battle led by Phil Sword.

Elaine listened from a distance, then approached Philsword and hugged him.

“Oh no. Father… How could you say that…”

“I’m sorry… I’m sorry… I could have made you happier…” “

… Father gave me a lot. I…”

“…Who are you?”

“… yes?”

Pilsod’s eyes became blurry.

“Who are you? “I don’t know you.”

“….”

“Dad, I’m scared… Tell that woman to go. “I hate it.”

Feelsword embracing the snowfall.

Elaine paused for a moment, then smiled and walked away.

Elaine began announcing Philsword’s funeral that day. It is very rare to prepare a funeral before death because it is a tradition unique to Potra.

In Portra, there is a tradition that all mourners offer a flower. This may not seem much different from other floral tributes, but there was a unique difference in that each mourner had to lay a different flower.

Therefore, before the condolence visit, visit the bereaved family in advance and tell the bereaved family what kind of flowers you would like to prepare.

“I’m scared… I’m scared…”

Kang Seol felt his life fading away. It won’t be long before I will have to say goodbye to him.

From then on, Kang Seol stayed with Pil Sword. I stayed by his side for two full days.

Crumbling!

Rain poured down with thunder.

Whoa…

whoa… whoa…

shoot!

The wind was so strong that when I opened the window, the floor became wet.

Kkeikkeek…

That night when I tried to roll down the window.

“Don’t close it.”

“….”

Snowfall stopped as if an arrow had been stabbed in her back.

“… I’ve caused you trouble so far.”

“no.”

“I’m worried about my daughter. “There is no one I can rely on for the rest of my life.”

“….”

When the snowfall turned around, there was a giant sitting there with sparkles in his eyes.

The giant’s breathing becomes shallow.

Very slowly.

“Death is scary… I’m afraid… but it’s okay.”

Philsword slowly fell asleep.

“Please hold my hand, father.”

Snowfall ran over and grabbed his hand tightly.

“Warm hands… ah….”

Philsword died.

Elaine held her funeral the next day. A long procession followed to the mansion.

Shoot…

no one used an umbrella even though it was raining without stopping. However, I somehow managed to keep the one flower hidden in my arms from getting hit by the rain.

Flowers were piled up in abundance.

It was even said that this was probably the funeral with the largest variety of flowers prepared in the history of Portra.

“Heo-eok… heo-eok…”

When the funeral was almost over, a man came.

“How…”

“Ugh, I once received a favor.”

The man had prepared a bunch of flowers.

It was a bunch of different types of flowers.

“Are there any flowers among these that have not been laid?”

“…There is none. “These are all flowers that have already been offered.”

“So…”

The man was so helpless that tears welled up in his eyes.

Sigh…

Elaine handed him a flower.

“This is…”

“It’s the kind of flower that wasn’t prepared in advance. “I prepared flowers to distribute to those who could not afford them.”

“… thank you.”

Heo…

heo…

A man offering flowers.

“… I hope you sleep. “Adult of Portra.”

By the time the funeral was over, it was time for Snowfall to leave.

After the mourners left, Elaine spoke to Kang Seol, who was laying flowers in the rain.

“sorry.”

“… What do you mean?”

“Father… I guess he never remembered you.”

“it’s okay.”

The color of the thread threaded through the nose remains where the needle passed. Philsword’s death clearly showed what kind of life he lived and how much he was loved.

Whirling-!

A flower created from a shadow is placed on the graveside.

“Because I will remember him.”

He passed away as a child, but no one remembered him as a child. Is that an adult?

Snowfall and the two knights leave the mansion.

I also didn’t use an umbrella.

Sssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssss.uuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuu

The light that arose at the graveside flowed into Kangseol’s body.

At that moment, Kang Seol looked back at the mansion.

It somehow feels like Phil Sword is watching Snow Seol leave through the large window as always.

Kang Seol indirectly experienced the countless deaths that his horses experienced. Kang Seol, who watched Phil Sword’s death, says:

Like a god.

“…It’s a good life, things like that.”

[The tradition of ‘Field Sword’ begins.]
