Chapter 4 - chapter4:respectable grave

Leko lies on the floor, sweat running down his face.

"Damn that was scary"

He sees the child standing in front of him, looking at his body hanging on the ground.

The child goes to the lake

"hey kiddo where ?"

The Child dive into the lake

"hold on!!"

Leko takes off with him into the lake.

Leko dives into the lake and goes deeper and deeper.

He finds a light coming out from somewhere in the lake, touching the luminous body in front of him.

And suddenly he faints

Leko wakes up to find himself in a white space.

He sees the child waiting for him

"...where are we?"

The child signals for him to come forward.

"oh...ok"

Leko walks up to the child.

Leko He looks down and sees a scene of a peaceful village in the countryside.

He sees child...well happy and cheerful

With the same clothes but cleaner

Suddenly, a voice calls the child

:Rolly~

I shift my gaze to see a middle-aged woman waving at the child to come towards her.

"so your name is Rolly..a cute name"

Oh there is someone playing with you, is it your father?

The child Shake his hand in agreement

"Oh....that's nice. "

"Rolly He looks at the ground sadly. "

Suddenly the village is in chaos

fire is everywhere

....

The scene shifts to Rolly where the giant monster stands in front of him.

The same creature that Leko killed in the cave.

Leko sees that the monster was going to attack and kill Rolly.

Rolly's mom takes the hit for him.

With the price of her life she gives rolly a scroll.

Tell him to give it to the knights and they will be able to save her.

." Leko puts his hand over his mouth. "

Rolly tries to escape from the village with his tattered clothes. He sets off for the nearby knights' camp...after much trouble, he finally arrives.

He hands them the message and then faints in the spot

When he woke up, he was in his village...or whatever was left.

He tries to move but a piece of wood is tied around his neck.

...One of the guards announces the execution of the monster that destroyed the village.

....It was RolIy's execution.

He tries to say something but his tongue was cut off.

...rolly He didn't understand. He didn't have time to wake them up because the last thing he remembered was

"Chop"

That his head was cut off

...Leko returns to the white space

...And vomit vomit like hell .

He knelt on his knees trying to comprehend the horror of the scene he had witnessed.

His green eyes show fear.

The child holds his cheek and lifts his head ...they didn't speak either...but Leko understood that this was his way of saying thank you.

...The scene shifts to Roy's spirit knocking on people's doors....

Over and over and over

leko hugs Rolly

"You really been through a lot....You can take a break your strong kid.that monster won't take any more lives.you did good job Roly "

Rolly crying on Leko's shoulder And wipes his tears on Leko

Leko opens his eyes to find himself in the river trying to swim.

But he notices a skull in the middle of the lake.

He comes back to take it

After two hours

The system is waiting for you to complete your dive.

"What's wrong with this kid he just finished his mission I literally have so many guesses that I have opened up for him in the system"

I know that swimming is a healthy sport and all that, but two hours is a little too much...and the sun began to rise on us, hurry up before anyone notices your absence

And with a final dive, Leko emerges from the water.،

"Boy ho boy It's time "

"shut up please...."

"eh?"

He takes several stones and digs a hole... he puts bones in it, closes the hole and thus completes the grave.

He bites his thumb and uses his blood to write on the rock.

This is where he rests. Rolly

"The child who does not sleep"

"...let's go home ....I want to sleep"

"..okay.. just because you really seem like someone who needs it "

Leko returns home as quickly as possible, enters the door quietly and goes to his bedroom.....

"ho shit"

"what?"

"my brother blindfold He will kill me"

They go to his big brother's room...but to their surprise, they find the blindfold placed on the drawers next to the bed.

Leko smiles lightly knowing that it is the last gift from his little friend. .

before he gets his peace

The scene shifts to the child holding his parents' arms as they run towards the light.
