Hero’s Downfall Report - Hero’s Downfall Report chapter 63
63 – Report on the Fall of Humility (11)
Samaritans crowded into the room. Cain looked back at Arianne and shouted. “Cover your ears!” She took out her flute, which she had hung like a necklace, and blew it.
A scream resounded like that of a devil having his limbs torn off one by one by a monster.
In the first place, it is a flute used to call for rescue on the other side of a desert without people. Although the size of the flute is small, its transmission power is strong enough to pierce the sound of desert sand and the sound of the wilderness chewing its cud.
Moreover, compared to the desert, this is a narrow room. The noise that bounced off the walls and ceiling pierced the Samaritans’ ears and shook their bodies.
Cain herself was dizzy as she played the flute, but her determination to somehow get out into the lingering sound of Asas grass kept her spirits up.
“You said you wanted to go out, come on!”
Arianne stood up. Cain held her imperial sword in her left hand and her staff in her right. She swung threateningly and grandiosely at the Samaritans who came to her senses. It means a warning that you will get hurt if you come close. The Samaritans, who had been startled by the sound of the flute, now bowed down.
I was able to pass safely to the spring water. However, the Samaritans, imperial troops, and city guards were all stuck together on the streets and roads, making it impossible to pass any further. Although they did not use deadly weapons against each other, the sight of them fighting roughly and trying to grab each other is scary.
Cain played her flute again. People flinched and looked at Cain. But the city was in chaos, and a flute or two wouldn’t calm it down. Loud shouts and the sound of objects being broken could be heard from the other side. The West and the East collided.
“Ah. Ahhh… !”
Arianne sat down. Her arms and legs tremble and pull together, and her chin clicks. It seemed like the grass had lost its energy. Angry Samaritans jumped into the spring.
“Come on!” Cain screamed, but Arianne covered her head and cried out.
“I can’t, I can’t get out of here! “I’m going to live here and die like this for the rest of my life!”
A Samaritan climbed up, clenching his fists. He held her position and pulled her fist back. It’s an obvious attack.
Cain pushed the man’s chest with the tip of her staff. The man, who couldn’t even fully stretch out his fist, said “Uh-uh” And fell backwards violently and fell into the spring water.
Cain scratched her floor fiercely with her imperial sword. At the sound of each sound, Arianne lifted her head, sighing.
“You can choose.”
Cain fiercely threw his imperial sword. The setting sunlight flowed through the sword.
“You can still choose life. “It can get better.”
“Get him… You can catch me… I killed my mother. “Isn’t that enough?”
“Because the penalty for embezzlement is less. And… “
Cain thrust her sword at the person who approached her carelessly. The Samaritan woman was shocked and took a step back.
“Isn’t it enough to have suffered so far? Let’s get out. Stand up and come with me. I won’t take you away. But if you want to get away, you can go together. “I promise.”
Cain held out the tip of her staff to mean to stand up. Arianne carefully held out her fingertip. She then grasped her staff strongly.
Following her lead, Arianne stood up. She still stumbled a little, but she held on to Cain’s shoulder, breathing heavily on her. Her Samaritans looked up at her incomprehensibly.
Arianne moved her feet. She felt anxious and in danger, like a child standing up against a wall for the first time. But she moved forward, step by step, of her own will.
“Where are you going!”
Shouting broke out from the group of Samaritans. Arianne stopped her steps and looked in the direction of the sound.
“Everyone. I committed a sin. My mother also sinned against you. So… “
Arianne stumbled again. Cain approached, but she threw away her hand. She struggled back into position under her own power.
“So I’m going to confess.”
“What sin has the Rabbi committed?”
“He tried to push you into sin!” Arianne screamed out loud.
“Both the people of the East and the people of the West! He wanted everyone in Emmaus to kill and kill each other! Because I don’t like it. Because I hate you! But… But that… It might be a reason to turn your back. There is no reason for anyone to kill anyone… So.”
A hero to the Empire and the daughter of her teacher to the Samaritans, she shook her head.
“So… No.”
Cain saw her children in his eyes. These are the kids she bought sparkling water for. The guys were hugging each other and looking at Cain and Arianne with frightened eyes. Cain gave a faint smile. A small smile appeared on the thick-haired guy’s lips.
“No.”
Someone walked out from the crowd. He was missing one arm and one leg. She was a woman wearing a piece of wood that was too clumsy to be called crutches.
“I can’t forgive. They didn’t even give us medicine. “They didn’t even give us proper water.”
“I can’t forgive either.”
A young man walked out. One of his eyes was closed with an eyepatch. “When my fifth child died. I cried out for help. “They didn’t do anything.”
“I have never been treated like a human being in my life.”
“Only mothers! “Only Master was on our side!”
“He taught us how to live and showed us the strength to sustain! “He gave me a reason to live!”
It seemed like a fire was spreading across the dry field. Arianne waved her arms and shook her head. No. No… But it was in vain. She can’t put out the flames with a drop of water.
“They have sinned against us, so why shouldn’t we? Why do we have to suffer? Live like this all your life! “Do I have to live like this for the rest of my life and then die?”
Those who came out of her house questioned Arianne.
“Our children! Let’s pass this life on to our children! I can’t. You can never do that! You have to show an example. “You have to show that you won’t sit still!”
“You can’t do anything by force!”
Arianne screamed, but people were no longer listening.
“It must be because you are weak! Because she’s a weak daughter who can’t even come to her mother’s feet! We are different from you. You can see it stretching out! You are not the only daughter of your mother. We are all his sons and daughters!”
“Let’s kill them all! “We have to pay back what was done to us!”
The cheers grew louder. People stood up. Angry Samaritans stood up everywhere. Neither Cain nor Arianne cared anymore. She tried to lunge at her guards in front of her. She was determined to destroy everything in the West, leaving nothing behind.
The bell rang.
It was a heavy bell ringing from the central fortress. At the same time, bells rang from the western chapel. Chuck. There was the sound of weapons firing in unison.
Heavily armed hippopotamus knights, soldiers clutching long spears. Combat monks armed with large books and walking sticks. However, the largest number are heavy infantrymen carrying large shields. The flag of the Knights of the Holy Grail flew above them. Reinforcements had arrived.
In front of them was Heresy Inquisitor Maria. At the feet of the imperial people who were standing still and hesitant, she ignited a holy flame. It was a fire that punished evil deeds but did no harm to people, but the imperial soldiers and guards were surprised and opened the way.
The head of the detachment, Kübler, shouted and waved his flag.
Heavy infantrymen were spread out in two wide lines. One line held off the imperial troops, the other held off the Samaritans. He placed his sword in its scabbard and held only his shield. Spearmen and monks took up positions behind the infantry. They also had their staffs and spears upright, but if they saw any disturbing movement, they would immediately aim at the opponent.
The hippo knights gathered next to Cain and Arianne. They also did not draw their swords. It was just support. Maria snapped her fingers. A pillar of sacred fire rose from the ground into the sky.
“I will listen!”
Maria’s voice was shouted and spread by her knights.
“I will listen! I will hear your suffering in the name of God! What you had to go through. Wounds engraved on the body! I will listen to the sharply forged hatred!
I will also hear about reasonless persecution and reasonless ridicule! But to do that, you have to be alive. But to do that you have to be free! “Do not be subject to the yoke of sin!”
The knights stopped walking. Arianne stood tall in her place. Cain approached Arianne. She was grinning. She was trying desperately not to laugh, but her energy had already dropped. Arianne stamped her arms with her fingernails.
“My mouth…” Ugh… Stop it… hurry… Heeheeheehee! Before I lose my mind… !”
Cain rushed at Arianne. The frightened knights rushed in and separated the two men.
“No! Stop it! Cover your mouth! I’m on drugs. “It’s not true!”
“What crazy things are you talking about! If you are the Heretic Questioner’s bodyguard, you will act like a bodyguard, but what are you doing?”
It was far away. The knights don’t know the circumstances. In their eyes, Cain would have seemed like a villain who suddenly rushed to Arianne and tried to shut her mouth.
They also say that Arianne is irreversibly addicted to her medicine. She doesn’t even know that the energy that supported her judgment has fallen.
“What on earth is going on?” The mayor squeaked. Arianne was delighted, her young eyes sparkling with madness.
“You idiot! “You don’t know anything!” It was a clear and pure sound, like an oriole in the night.
“My mother dug a tunnel in your well! She sprinkled hallucinogenic juice and sprinkled burnt ashes! You’ve been drinking that water for over 10 years! “You idiots, you didn’t know, did you?”

“Please cover your mouth!”
Cain struggled mightily, but the more her knights struggled, the more they bound him. A cold silence spread between the imperial troops and the guards.
“… “Is this true?”
“It’s a lie! Shah Zah al-Dur poisoned her daughter. “What I’m saying now is not true!”
Cain shouted the truth. A truth so strange and shocking that no one will take it for granted. And the way to ignore that truth is very simple.
“That’s crazy!”
Imperial soldiers rushed in. The knights raised their shields to block the imperial soldiers. The spearmen aimed their spears and stabbed menacingly. Maria created a flame and protected the front of the knights.
“Those bastards poisoned our well! “Those vulgar things, the bastard sons of that empire, tried to harm us!”
The mayor shouted.
“You things without parents! You will settle there and live there from generation to generation! From this time on, none of you will be able to get out of there! You will live there among yourselves, have s*x, and die lonely! “I declare this with my position as mayor!”
“Catch it!”
The hippopotamus shouted. One of the hands holding Cain slipped away. A Samaritan was trying to stab me in the throat. The knight threw himself and pushed him away. The Samaritan rolled over, the sword extending far into the distance.
“Give me revenge!”
Someone grabbed a knife. She was a mother who lost her child. She stabbed herself. Joy appeared on her face, as did Shahzah al-Dur’s.
“Revenge! “Sacrifice yourself for revenge!”
The Samaritans drew their swords. They stabbed their bodies with knives. The knights who had been standing facing Samaritan rushed in all at once as if a dam had collapsed. It was to stop people trying to take their own lives.
But the number of Samaritans was too many. The number of people with deep resentment was even greater than that. There was not one among them who did not lose anything. No one among them was happy.
“Like my mother! For your mother! For mother and our dreams!”
“It’s coming!” Arianne shouted, clapping her hands in joy.
“He’s coming! He’s coming! He’s coming splitting the sky to punish sin! I don’t know? I don’t know? He’s coming! Run away… “Run away quickly!”
Cain saw the sunset. The sun was eating her. A wriggling shadow ate up the sunlight. It wasn’t even a solar eclipse. A solar eclipse is not that bizarre.
Even though the sun disappears behind the curtain, it is not eaten like an old sheep being eaten by a lion.
A huge ship was flying across the night sky.
“The Avengers are coming! The Avengers are coming! You will suffer harm, you will suffer harm! “Those who stand with their feet on the ground!”
The knights’ grip loosened. Cain ran to Arianne. She slapped her cheek mercilessly.
“Oh, it hurts…” Sick… “
“What on earth have you done!”
Cain grabbed Arianne’s shoulders and shook her.
“Your mother… And you!”
“Us, Mom?” Arianne smiled brightly.
“I asked you to kill me. I was intoxicated by the smoke and grinning, and then I fell asleep when I saw that Holy Grail flag. I inhaled more smoke than usual. I asked you to kill me. So she stabbed… Because I want to kill him. “Because the smoke is spicy.”
“It wasn’t something you wanted to do!”
“No. “I wanted to do it.”
Arianne shook her head, shedding tears. This is a clear denial. But her mouth said yes. She whispered, shaking her head.
“I killed him because I wanted to kill him. My mother was thankful too. I received compliments for the first time… Well done. In this way… “
Something jumped out of a ship flying in the night sky. Cain recognized what it was. They are lumps of flesh. Monsters made of people grotesquely joined were jumping from the sky over Emmaus. From the ground. The darkness soared like a whirlpool.
“My mother told me to hold a knife. She told me to place it just enough to lightly touch the skin of my heart, and then she gently wrapped my hand in her motherly hand and squeezed it.
This is my first time. My mother held my hand so tenderly. My mother hated me and died happy.
She prayed for revenge on ‘I’ who killed her. She died happily, praying for the destruction of the world and the empire that gave birth to me. “That is justice.”
Arianne sobbed and laughed.
“In this way, revenge has been completed…” .”
Clang. Something walked out making a noise.
Wearing black armor. Holding a sheathed sword. It was a dark knight.
“Arianne.”
A strange sound emanated from within.
“I came to receive my share.”
