116. Regrets of the Hero Party (3)
A week after Saten came to my room.
The existence that had been waiting for it confidently knocked on the door.
Thumb-!!
-Teacher is here! Open the door!
“… You are finally here.”
I thought he was dead because he never arrived.
I opened her door and greeted her, whom I hadn’t seen in a long time.
“It’s late. Fanatic Daniel.”
“Did you leave out the word fanatic? I don’t need old nicknames.”
Cultist Daniel.
She wore a nun’s uniform, but she gave off a bit of a bully vibe. She
She met in the mountains and she was supposed to be Estiya’s teacher.
Why did she arrive so late?
I asked Daniel that question.
“Why are you so late? It wouldn’t have been far from that mountain and this place, right?”
“I was late because I had something to investigate, I almost died. I have been to the capital.”
“The capital?”
“Yes, capital.”
Danuel said that and took a cigarette out of his pocket.
“Do you want to write?”
“No, that’s all right. It’s been a long time since I quit.”
After Aina died, she smoked a lot.
I don’t smoke now.
More than that, there was something I wanted to ask Daniel.
“Didn’t you just say you almost died in the capital city?”
“Oh, I almost died. I was caught by those guys at the church, but they said there was no mercy. Whoa-“
As expected.
If Daniel almost died in the capital.
The only opponent for that would be Grimoire.
A grimoire with a close relationship with the church.
I don’t know why they betrayed the goddess and sided with Grimoire…
I just felt like I had to organize the capital before increasing my power.
“I’ll hear about the church’s grimoire later.”
“Okay, I’ll talk to you later. Can I go see you at night?”
“… Come to lunch.”
“Hmm, that’s a bit disappointing.”
Daniel doesn’t look regretful at all.
She tried to enter the house, throwing her cigarette on the floor.
“Wait… “
“Huh?”
I grabbed Daniel’s shoulder as he was about to enter.
She looked back and frowned.
“What? Have you changed your mind? Shall we go tonight?”
“Stop playing around. Let me ask you one thing first. Where is the base?”
“It’s an inn near the Adventurer’s Guild?”
“… I get it. And before entering… “
I took out a small bottle from the subspace.
Then, without hesitation, it was sprayed toward Daniel.
“What, what-!! What did you sow on me you bastard! Choi, an aphrodisiac-!!”
“It is nostalgia. Always remove the smell of cigarettes when you enter the house.”
“… If it’s perfume, don’t tell me. But, why should I?”
“Kids hate it.”
No child likes the smell of cigarettes.
Just smelling it is not good for your health.
When meeting children, it is better to erase them.
Perhaps it’s strange that I’m like that, Daniel let out a laugh.
“If anyone sees it, they’ll know it’s a daughter.”
“It is an illusion.”
“As you said, you must be mistaken. By the way, your mood has changed a bit. It feels like sinking slowly into the water.”
“… “
“Then, I’m going to teach a kid named Estiya~ Where are you?”
“Go up to the second floor and it’s the next room.”
Daniel headed for the second floor without looking back.
Now that the smell of cigarettes is gone, Estiya should be fine.
‘I’m worried that I won’t be able to listen to Daniel, but… ‘
Well, since I’ve roughly said it, I’m sure you can do well.
Currently, Estiya belonged to the honor student in the hero’s party.
Thought so, I closed the front door and headed for the yard.
Today is the day to watch Luna’s training.
‘Let’s talk. It shouldn’t be late.’
I walked towards the yard, quickening my steps slightly.
The headache I felt in my head was getting better little by little.
***
For about two weeks, Luna lived in apathy.
She is silent even during meals.
Silence even during training.
She couldn’t even remember when she had a proper conversation with the man.
“But today! The uncle said he would give her personal training!”
But Luna continued to work hard in that silence. She
Every time we met her face, she cried out that she was ‘wrong’, and she continued to train and work hard behind the scenes.
Has such an effort finally paid off?
Luna let out her anger by gripping her wooden sword tightly.
“Reflection… I did it… ! I’m very sorry… !!”
Never be greedy again!
I won’t move for my own benefit!
Because I am a warrior!
“Think of the whole warrior party!”
Haap-!
Luna swung her sword forward.
Her passionate movements are accompanied by thousands of hard work.
It was a clean and uncluttered attitude.
‘He seemed more angry with me than with Hare and Saten.’
Why is that?
Hare and Saten are always like that.
I wonder if the shock wasn’t great.
‘Rather, because I always live kindly. Could he be more angry with me? If not, it’s because I’m the hero of the hero’s party?’
If that’s not the case…
“Me, think of me more! Is it because you made it even more special!?”
“What did you say, Luna?”
“Oh no! I didn’t say anything! It’s real!”
Fantastic –
Luna looked back in surprise.
There was a man there whom he hadn’t seen in a long time.
Luna kept her spirits up.
‘Poetry, don’t make mistakes! That I made a mistake and regretted it! I have to show it properly this time!’
I lived in indifference.
Luna did not give up.
Because I thought that if I worked hard and reflected on myself, the old man would look back.
Luna could never give up.
‘Mister remembers me. Remember the path I walked!’
No one remembers except you.
You are special to me.
I can’t disappoint a man like that.
Luna bent her back 90 degrees.
“Oh, hello, mister! Sorry! I wish you well today!”
“… Okay.”
From noble mtl dot com
A light answer.
It’s not cold, so it’s not bad.
Luna raised her sword, hiding her joy.
“What is training today, Mister! Until now, I practiced alone!”
“Then, let me see what you practiced. What did you practice?”
“Upper cut! Because the basics are always important! I practiced the top cut!”
“… Show me.”
“Yes!”
Luna cooled her head and put her mind at ease.
She put the thought of not making a mistake out of her head.
As always.
‘Without using the shoulders, using the whole body.’
Support it with your legs so that the power is transmitted properly.
Luna exhaled her breath.
“Haaap-!!”
A wooden sword that cuts through the wind with a scream.
A sound that is hard to see as power coming from a small body.
Through the dirt blown by the wind, Luna let out her cough.
“Collock-! Coke-! Ooh, it was too hard… Her head will be messed up… “
I can’t show you guys this!
Luna quickly tidied up her features and emerged from the dust as if nothing had happened.
“Heh heh heh! Mister… ! Is this enough… ?”
“Hmm… “
Lee Jun-woo stroked his chin as if pondering for a moment.
Luna felt uneasy for a moment.
‘Seo, what if the old man said he didn’t like it?’
Worries come first.
‘Should I bring a real sword to turn back time? Was this called seppuku?’
Once again for the honor?
The moment Luna sweats profusely and thinks dangerously.
Lee Jun-woo said with a small nod as if he had made up his mind.
“… Goa-“
“Yes?”
What did you just say?
My, must I have heard wrong?
Luna asked again.
“What, what, Mister!?”
“… Would be better.”
“Do you think it would be better to use your shoulders less?”
“No.”
Lee Jun-woo for the unheard of Luna.
She spoke very clearly.
“As expected, Luna, you had better leave the house.”
“Eh… ?”
She thought her posture was good… ?
Why… ?
Exile after indifference.
A development that I have seen in fairy tales where the hero party is ruined.
Luna fell to her knees in her despair.
“This is a dream… “
You can’t do this to me…
I worked hard…
She thought it would be nice if the wooden sword she was holding was a real sword.
It was the words of a warrior who put in too much effort.

“Hee hee, looks good… ! Look good… ! I was trying to get his attention… ! Luna is disqualified… !”
Hare walking through the market was in a good mood.
As her competitors were automatically eliminated, her own position was strengthened.
The smile on her lips hung in the sky.
“If you fall by yourself, it’s good for me… !”
Comparatively, compared to Luna and Saten, Hare avoided indifference.
She didn’t know that the action was wrong.
Hare could have lost the old man’s heart less.
“Hare in second place… ! She’s not far… ! Oh man, please wait for me… ! Hare is coming soon… !”
Still, the indifference hurt my mind a little.
Because the merchants in the surroundings acted out their eccentricities by talking to themselves whenever Hare ran errands.
I knew he was such a child.
“When I come with a young man, I feel fine… After all, it’s strange to come here alone, as if you’re possessed by a ghost. “
“Joe, be quiet! Those ears are pretty good!”
Suck-
The traders in the market were silent.
The outside looks calm, but.
It was because the sharp eyes that Hare sometimes showed appeared in her dreams as well.
Hare tilted her head and took out her paper from her pocket and read it.
“Ummm… Is this enough material for 30 days for one person? ? It’s too much to eat alone… “
What are you doing… !
Luna is a monster, so you can just kick her out with her bare body… !
“The old man is so affectionate that he is a mask… !”
Hare shouted and took a little more of her food than the amount written on her paper.
Still, her friends were friends.
She It was her way of taking care of herself.
“If Luna leaves, it will be a little quiet… “
Hare bought all the food written on her paper and slung a heavy bag on her back.
Her body was small, but it was an area that could be solved with grit.
“Luna doesn’t get praise for doing things like this, but… ! I can get compliments… ! It’s as easy as this for a compliment… !”
Hare eagerly walked towards her house to receive her compliments.
Because that kind of Hare was always paying attention to her surroundings.
She noticed the cacophony of small movements.
‘Oh, what? Are you chasing me?’
Who are you?
It’s not the old man’s smell and footsteps.
I know that better than anyone.
Hare captured the gaze felt in the alley.
‘Red hair, red eyes… I’ve smelled this before.’
When the old man said he defeated the demon king.
I remember taking it.
‘Perhaps the guy glaring at me is the Demon King… ‘
The Demon King is strong.
Even the old man is an opponent whose victory cannot be guaranteed.
However, Hare walked towards her alley on her own feet.
‘The thief must gather information… ! I have to tell my uncle… !’
Certainly, that demon lord is not his body.
I don’t have a strong presence.
I have nothing to fear because I have finished grasping the opponent’s strength.
Hare grasped all the information around her, and she entered an alleyway and met eyes with the red-eyed demon lord.
“You, what is your name… !!”
-It’s your first time meeting you, so you’re bold? Let me introduce myself I-
“Eh, he’s the demon king… ! You idiot… ! I need to tell you my name, so tell me right away… ! You are weak anyway… !!”
-… Did you know I can’t lie
Whoop-
A red-eyed man who emerged from the darkness.
Appearing with bandages all over his body, he reached out to Hare and shouted.
-Since my work has also been ruined, I will speak directly. Won’t you sign a contract with us?
“Uh… ?”
– My name is Grid. All your desires money is money. Love if love honor if honor. If you hold my hand, I will give you the strength to achieve everything you desire. How about you, won’t you sign a contract with me?
“Anything can be achieved… ?”
-Yes. This world is a tilted world where everything is possible with strength. I will give you the power of the demon king. You just have to use your power for whatever you want to achieve. How is it, isn’t it greedy?
Grid gradually brought his hand towards Hare.
I don’t think the demon king’s words are true.
Hare kept taking her eyes off his hand.
‘Everything you want… Uncle too… Anything I can get… ?’
Everything about you…
Can I get it… ?
Hare imagined the future with the uncle every day.
Wake up.
Eating rice
Before falling asleep.
I always used to imagine.
‘By the way, I promise to make that imagination come true… ?’
Gulp-
Hare shouted with great determination.
“Go away, Demon King-!! I’ll tell you everything… !!”
Ododo-
Hare screamed and ran out of his alley.
Hare always messed with his work due to greed and greed.
“Uh, how did you seize this opportunity… ! Can never lose… !!”
She had no intention of repeating her past.
And…
-There is no time. If this happens, I will die first…
The demon king, who was left alone in the alley, muttered softly as he touched the grimoire.
