123. Regrets of the Hero Party (10)
Attempt to subdue.
And then, get beaten up.
I stand up feeling the pain.
Getting beaten again.
Luna and Hare repeated that series of processes countless times.
They moved their dry lips as they leaned against the collapsed wall.
“Hare… “
“Ugh… “
“We won’t be able to save you… ?”
“… “
Hare replied with silence.
She couldn’t answer, ‘I can’t find it’.
She stared at the old man who stood still with swollen, barely open eyes.
“… Uncle is so strong And, our bodies are weak.”
“I know that too! Our skills are far inferior to that of you!”
“Yes, we are not good at it.”
You know that well.
Why are we fighting like this?
Hare dropped the dagger she was holding in her hand to the floor.
“At this point, we can’t beat you… It doesn’t help you at all… “
Luna nodded at Hare’s words.
There was also a positive meaning, but Luna wanted to add a story to Hare’s words.
“Why should we help you? You only see us as tools.”
“… What are you talking about?”
“Your uncle only sees us as tools to kill the demon lord. Growing every day. Growth. Just talking To you, we are nothing but dragons and thieves… “
They don’t see us as Luna and Hare.
We are just Luna and Hare who have to defeat the demon lord.
Hare closed her eyes for a moment and thought about Luna’s words.
‘Mr. Do you really think of us that way… ?’
Really.
Does the old man think of us as tools for revenge?
It didn’t take long for Hare to respond to Luna’s opinion.
Hare got up from the floor with an awkward body.
“… It can’t be. Uncle is taking good care of us.”
“Well then! What is today! It hurts and hurts us so much!! How can I explain this!!”
“He must have thought of us more. If we don’t become stronger, it will be more difficult in the future. And you’ll have a harder time than us. You’re hitting us when you don’t want to… “
“Ah… “
Luna finally understood her own stupidity.
She acted foolishly because she was sick.
I couldn’t understand the heart of the man who had to be beaten by force.
She didn’t notice that it was very painful.
Hare sat blankly and spoke to Luna, who regretted it.
“To be honest, I don’t mind if you think of me as a tool… “
“Uh… ?”
“Because I love you. Are you okay.”
Sure.
I can’t stay still like this.
“You believe in us… We entrusted the demon lord to us… “
Hare pulled out the two daggers she had hidden in her arms.
A sharp dagger that is light in weight.
Hare decided to pursue change without hesitation in order to save his uncle.
“It’s okay to be used as long as you don’t get thrown away… I’m alive thanks to you… I always stutter in front of you, but… One day, even the uncle will recognize me… “
“Ha, hare.”
“Wake up. I have to go home with my uncle… “
That’s love… ?
Luna caught a glimpse of her madness in Hare.
What the existence of an uncle meant to Hare was properly engraved into her head.
‘Hare thinks of you that much… And, the uncle us… ’
Because Mr. Hare said he didn’t think of us as tools.
I’ll ask you directly later.
Return the old man back to normal.
‘I will convey my thoughts and feelings.’
Seeing Hare standing up with her injured body, Luna threw her wooden sword to the floor at her.
I mustered up the courage to stand up from the floor so as not to hesitate any longer.
“Holy Sword, lend me your strength… ! I’m going to save you… !”
It’s a real sword that could hurt you if you’re not careful.
Luna and Hare decided not to hesitate.
Like bones that were once broken come back stronger.
Burning my broken heart, I ran forward toward the grid.
Their bodies were already full of wounds.
***
A dark room.
I sat still and looked at the screen.
“Because it is a cave, the sense of time is ambiguous.”
How much time has passed?
A rough estimate seems to have passed a day.
I don’t know exactly.
Minerva, who was lying down and resting for a while, replied lightly, as if she had heard me.
“Two days.”
“Two days have passed?”
“Yeah, that’s about it.”
“… It’s been quite a while.”
I could see the two of them fighting hard.
I can’t sleep in this space.
I had nothing to do but sit still and watch the two of them all day.
‘It was unpleasant to hit Luna and Hare with my body… ‘
I couldn’t help it.
Because this is also part of the process of growing up.
For Luna and Hare to easily pass the danger of the warrior party later.
There had to be such a difficult and difficult process.
“Minerva.”
“Huh?”
“How do you see this fight?”
“Doesn’t sound too bad? The two of them fight with all their heart, so you can see their growth at a glance. It’s because of the talent.”
You have the same thoughts as me.
As Minerva said, unlike Dalian, the two showed a higher growth rate in real combat.
Every single attack was deliberate, and after being put against the wall, we discussed what to do next.
However, if there is one thing wrong with Minerva’s words.
“It’s probably not just because of talent.”
“… Okay? Do you see talent in my eyes? Everyone in the party of warriors is very talented!”
“For those talents to bloom properly, it takes effort. But the warrior party is working much harder than normal people.”
As a result, the two of them are achieving explosive growth, and are getting stronger by repeating failures.
Conserve your stamina by taking turns taking naps.
Contemplate how to win.
There was no more hesitation in their eyes.
“Even if I cut off my arm, I want you to take me home…” “
“Do you want to die? Stop talking nonsense. More than that, it’s coming to an end soon. Why don’t you give him an answer for the last time? That guy is too noisy.”
Okay.
I kept making noise.
In place of the annoyed Minerva, I decided to answer him.
“Greed, soon your fate will be decided. Do you have anything to say?”
-Shut up, human-!! Why are you able to control your body even though you’ve been taken away?!
“If you know the future, it is easy to respond. The library is much larger than one grimoire.”
-What… ? What is that-
“You will know when you see it.”
Fear to finish the words.
The screen in front of me suddenly changed.
A party of warriors is walking slowly on the screen.
I couldn’t sleep properly, my eyes were haggard, and I had a lot of scars on my body.
The atmosphere they exuded contained unwavering confidence.
It was a scene I saw in a book.
“As expected, the future won’t change no matter what I do.”
“That is my ability. Even in the worst situation, it tells you the best move? How is it, isn’t it great?”
Minerva was flattered and demanded praise from me.
If you don’t praise me here, there will be an uproar.
I spat out compliments in a soulless tone.
“That’s a good ability.”
“… Is that the end? Aren’t you being too insincere?”
“Wait, be quiet. The warrior party has launched an attack.”
From noble mtl dot com
For now, let’s talk roughly.
I watched them fight, staring at the screen.
‘Coming from afar… Then they scatter to the left and right.’
A good choice.
I don’t have one eye, so I have to focus on one thing when it’s split into two.
In my field of vision, I saw a swiftly moving hare.
She held out the daggers in both her hands.
“Certainly, there is no hesitation in attacking vital points. You’re doing great.”
“… Is that working well? Is it your body?”
“It’s not me now. Doesn’t care.”
“Yes, everything you said is right. Uh… “
Minerva let out a sigh of her abandonment.
In the meantime, the onslaught of the warrior party continued.
Hare comes to stab her dagger, Luna runs away when my body tries to move her gaze.
The two cleverly fight using invisible blind spots.
Because I was using a real sword, the grid on my body was in a hurry to avoid attacks.
-These bugs-!! Do not injure the body I will use-!! You mean it doesn’t matter if your protector gets hurt-!!?
“It doesn’t matter. It’s what daddy wanted. Dad said don’t hesitate… “
-Mi, you’re crazy… Crazy very hard.
The warrior party is crazy.
But now I’m crazy in a good way.
‘Smart and cunning. I never fight a losing battle.’
A hero must not be defeated.
The two continued their fight to win by exploiting their weaknesses.
My body was covered with cuts from the blades.
I didn’t like Luna and Hare’s faces, but I rather wanted to praise them.
“It’s much better than what I saw in the book. It would have been nice if it was a little more aggressive.”
“… It’s crazy. It’s just all crazy!”
“If I could have drawn this much attention. Now it is time to move on to the next step.”
The next step.
Luna continued to move in an invisible blind spot.
Feeling a strong energy behind her, Grid quickly turned her body around.
However, Luna’s sword was already perfectly prepared.
“A holy sword imbued with magical power.”
A sharp sword with a mixture of blue and gold.
Grid looked away, Luna holding her sword high in the sky.
My body had only fists to defend itself, so I couldn’t counter it.
Of course, it was impossible to avoid because it attacked from a blind spot.
Grid shouted loudly as if he had a premonition of his end.
-If you hit it with that sword, your protector will get hurt…
“It’s okay… ! This is what Daddy wanted from the start. Don’t hesitate… !! Defeating you quickly is what the old man wanted!! And… “
Luna slammed her sword down and she shouted confidently.
“It’s okay, Mister, even if you get hurt! Even if you get hurt and can’t open your eyes! I’ll take care of you for the rest of my life, so it’s okay!”
I don’t like that.
As if he didn’t care about my intentions.
Luna struck my chest with the holy sword wrapped in her sword spirit.
-Rain, damn it…
Blood is flowing from my chest, and Luna seems to be mixed with guilt.
Then, with a look of remorse, she looked down at my body.
I was very satisfied with the fact that he didn’t hesitate to strike the sword.
“Never let her emotions get in the way when her own life is at stake.”
Even if the best way leads to bad results.
If that is the correct answer, you must follow it unconditionally.
You shouldn’t be swept away by emotions like me and lose your loved ones through the wrong choice.
“Luna, you… No, I don’t want you to regret making the wrong choice in the warrior party.”
“… “
The moment the screen I was watching gradually turned black.
I saw the faces of Luna and Hare tying the rope around my body.
It looked messy because I couldn’t wash it for two days.
If I could move, I felt like giving a compliment right now.
‘… However.’
I didn’t look too happy to catch the demon king.
Now, the only thing left for the warrior party is to annihilate the demon king.
