Afterdeath Ship 소설 & 이야기

And next to our name, carved in smaller letters, there was a line that said, "May we never meet again in the afterlife." This was my final punishment for them. I would never forgive them forever.

"We're out. We're actually out." "Look," Jun whispered. Elara wiped her eyes and looked at the long-range Aetheric-Scanner. They weren't alone in the dark. Emerging from the shadow of the moon, and rising from the far side of the planet, were hundreds of other White Ships. They were of different shapes and sizes—some looked like floating cathedrals of glass, others like jagged shards of obsidian—but they all shared the same Architectural-Lineage. "Are those... survivors?" Mina asked, her voice trembling.

—thousands of derelict ships, some made of iron, some of glass, all caught in a permanent, silent graveyard around the planet. "We aren't the first to escape," Mara said, her voice hollow as she stared at the monitors. "We're just the latest." The derelicts were a grim mirror of their own history. They saw ships that looked like the Sun-Forge’s spires, and ships that looked like the Great Engine’s older brothers. All of them were cold. All of them were empty. "The Siren didn't just let them go," Audrey realized, her eyes fixed on a massive, shattered vessel that bore a striking resemblance to the First King’s original bunker. "She hunted them. Look at the puncture marks. Those aren't from as

The blast wasn't too big but enough to make them cover their ears and lay on the ground, on their chest. They were all shocked to see the unexpected blast, but it was good for them. Cause now there was NO chance that she would survive. After watching the car burn down for some time, they returned to the warehouse. "She's dead." Oliver told his father, who was unexpectedly standing near the entrance. "Then what is this?" He said and pointed towards the wall. As Oliver looked closely, he noticed that something was written on it, most likely by Summer, as they called her. "I'll come back." Was what she wrote on that wall, with her blood. The blood was dripping down, which made the font look spo

That being said, death might be a release for Mary, in contrast to being used by her father as bait or meeting Asura—who was now a monster. That was when Gary suddenly spoke. “Professor Bob, let’s give her a sea burial.” I looked at Gary in surprise, presuming that he had suddenly gained something of a conscience, only to find him turning to look towards the aft. A giant black vortex had formed in the sea without me realizing, and it was following the ship closely as if it wanted something. It was possibly Asura, who was waiting for his beloved.

My pulse ponded in my ears. She stirred, a pained groan escaping her lips. Relief surged through me so fiercely, I almost fell from the sheer force of it. I thought I’d lost her. “Take it easy,” I murmured, propping her against a nearby crate. Looking around, I took in the devastation. All the ships carrying our cargos were engulfed in flames. Crates were shattered, and fire licked hungrily at the edge of the wooden pallets around us. A pained whimper snapped my attention back to Adira. I checked her over for injuries, spotting none—until my hand brushed her shoulder.

But just as the celebration reached its peak, one of his men stumbled in, his face drained of color. "Don Calderone, the ship Donna Calderone and Mr. Niccolo were on has exploded! It blew up shortly after entering international waters. There were… no survivors."

Just as I was sobbing uncontrollably, those magical little texts appeared again. [Oh, it's really heartbreaking to see. Hurry up and finish the story; your mother is waiting for you in the new world.] [She used up all her points to get this opportunity. Once your life ends here, you can immediately go to her side.] I forcefully wiped away my tears, sobbing softly, "Really? If I die... I can see my mother?" [Absolutely! Your mother knew you were suffering and couldn't come back, and she was frantic. She used up all her points to exchange for a reward from the system. Once your life ends here, you can immediately be teleported to her side to enjoy happiness!]

"She couldn't speak. She could barely breathe. When I saw that... it scared me... I wanted to call a doctor, an ambulance, someone to help. She called me over, to-told me to sit down and listen carefully. She said she wanted me to promise her something before she goes..." Damien let out a sigh and wiped his tears. Ashleigh could feel tears building up in her eyes too. "She said I should promise to move on and continue being a good man... promise to live life to the fullest and not let anything stop me from doing so... be it sickness, be it poverty, be it loss, I should take it all as it comes. "I promised her I would then she... sh-she closed her eyes a-a-and that was it. She just... died...
