Life in Another World With Narration - Life in Another World With Narration chapter 50
50 – Mother’s Heart
“Did you hear? “The hero plans to finally defeat the Demon King.”
“That trash hero? “What did I suddenly get wind of?”
“Even if you do trash, a hero is still a hero.”
“Ha, it would have been nice if he had been a nice and just warrior.”
New rumors about a hero were recently circulating in the kingdom’s capital, Pipnell.
It was a rumor that the hero, who had been confining himself to the hero’s room in the central church and doing all kinds of trash, had suddenly started working in earnest to defeat the devil.
The rumor was half true and half untrue.
From Noble mtl dot com
The warrior Cain actually ordered people to gather the strongest people on this continent.
Saint Selena and the bishops recommended that the warrior travel as an adventurer and gather companions himself, but Cain did not listen.
Cain did not want a colleague who would grow together slowly, but a strong person who could immediately fight the Demon King with all his might.
In this way, three of the strongest adventurers selected from each guild on the continent were called and gathered at the Central Church.
Among the gold-level adventurers, three people are considered to have high reputation and skills.
Among them was Mileia.
“Hey, you guys. Come with me to catch the devil. “Please find the holy sword as well.”
Cain spoke arrogantly in front of three people who were considered strong.
No matter how fast the warrior Cain grew thanks to the strength of the warrior, there was no way he could defeat these three with his skills as he relied only on his talent and did not put in any effort.
In particular, Mileia was definitely a stronger adventurer than Cain.
However, Cain’s attitude was extremely poor because he knew that even if his opponent was stronger than him, he would not be able to touch him because he was a warrior anyway.
“…… This is what a hero looks like. “I’m going back.”
Seeing Cain like that, one of the adventurers frowned and turned around and left.
I responded to the call, but after seeing the hero’s trash-like attitude as rumored, I lost any intention of helping him.
“If we could gather strong adventurers and defeat the Demon King, there would be no need for heroes in the first place. “I will go back too.”
One adventurer after another refused Cain’s request and left.
Now, only one person was left: Mileia.
“Sheesh, I don’t need vague guys anyway. “But Mileya, they say you’re a little different.”
Cain said, looking at the last remaining Mileia.
In fact, the idea of gathering the strong and using them to subdue the Demon King was a pathetic idea with no possibility.
In order to subdue the Demon King, the hero himself must become stronger.
And the fastest way for a warrior to become stronger is to walk like a warrior.
But Cain continued to be stubborn.
Mileia, like the other two adventurers, naturally had to refuse and leave.
Although she came here at the kingdom’s call, she was not forced to help the warrior.
“… ….”
But Milleia did not leave her place.
It wasn’t because I wanted to help the warrior Cain or because I liked him.
She had completely different thoughts.
‘Yunoa… ….’
Mileia was thinking about Yunoa. She was thinking of Blood Stain, the enemy of her hometown that she had lost.
The reason Millia has pursued her strength so far was to take revenge on the demons and monsters who burned down her hometown.
And now that she lost Yunoa, her desire for revenge has become even stronger.
“Hey, become this hero’s subordinate and help subdue the demon lord in this body.”
Cain ordered Milleia without understanding her mood or the topic.
Mileia seemed like a powerful tool for this less-than-human hero to bring out the demon king and demons.
In reality, wasn’t he almost assassinated by demons even at the Central Church of this safe capital?
It didn’t really matter what kind of person Cain was.
In any case, it is natural for a hero to have his life threatened by demons.
Mileia, who wanted to cut down and kill demon lords, demons, and monsters at random, felt that it was quite an attractive condition that they would come to her even if she stayed still.
Just like burying chicken bones in the ground to lure centipedes, she lures demons by presenting a hero.
“…… All right.”
Mileia answered Cain with a blank expression.
Cain turned to her triumphant face, and she immediately came closer and tried to place her hand on her Mileia’s shoulder.
But at that moment, she felt the air around her freeze and her hand stopped.
“Well, what is it? Why are you looking at me like that? “I am a warrior.”
“…… “I know.”
“Tsk.”
Cain felt somewhat uncomfortable, and she backed away from Mileia. She thought she was a strange woman.
She is Cain, who spat in the face of the knight commander and threw a vase and broke the bishop’s head, but for some reason she could not lay a hand on Mileia.
It felt as if I was touching a sharp blade that would cut me with even the slightest touch.
“Well, that’s enough. Anyway, please help me from now on. First, let’s go find that damn holy sword.”
Cain spoke to Milleia in her slightly softened manner.
Milleia quietly stared at Cain with her cold eyes, without answering.

Several days have passed since she entered the passage of the abyss.
I didn’t know when the earth would come out, but I was slowly getting tired.
“Wow… Huh… Omg… ….”
So far, there have been more than dozens of monsters encountered in the passage.
The worm dragon I met when looking for Kiki was one of the weakest monsters even in the passage to the abyss.
I couldn’t relax at every moment as I encountered all kinds of strange monsters that I had never seen before.
Just now, I encountered something that looked like a huge lizard spewing poison from its mouth, and the left side of the shirt I was wearing was blown off.
The wind and coolness on the left side of my upper body reminded me of the rags I wore when I first came to this world.
The red mushroom that Eldeborn had mentioned was still guiding me.
But I didn’t expect that I wouldn’t be able to get out of the passage for this long.
Are they really giving proper directions?
At this point, I was even a little suspicious.
『Yunoa did not think about the depth to which she had fallen from above, and she was mistaken in thinking that if she only knew the way, she would somehow easily reach the ground. Eldeborn was properly guiding Yunoa on the earthly path, but Yunoa, who was tired, was doubting the accurate guidance.』
Then it means you are on the right path.
At least I feel reassured.
If I got lost here, I honestly wasn’t confident that I would be able to get out even if I circled around until I died.
“Hmm?”
It was then.
As I was walking down the aisle, I felt a subtle breeze pass by my cheek.
It was a warm wind blowing that I had never felt before.
Could it be the wind blowing from the exit to the ground?
My steps picked up speed and I turned the corner, following the red light of the mushroom.
“It’s the exit!”
Then I really saw the exit leading outside.
There was an exit at the end of the passage that looked pure white with a dazzling light that brought tears to my eyes.
I hurriedly ran towards the exit.
“Ugh… It’s dazzling… ….”
I had been underground for so long that my eyes were dazzling as soon as I came out the exit.
After a while, I gradually got used to the light and my vision became bright again.
“Oh… ….”
And then I was greeted by the scenery of the demon world on earth unfolding before my eyes.
Light purple grass and flowers of a type I had never seen before were spread out everywhere.
A strange lump of magic power that looked like a will-o’-the-wisp was flying intermittently in the air.
It was truly a heterogeneous landscape worthy of being called a ‘demon world,’ but it was beautiful rather than repulsive or scary.
“Is that the Demon King’s Castle?”
I saw a very large castle not far away.
It was a castle of a rather unique style, with several tall, pointed spiers attached asymmetrically.
At that time, when she was standing there staring, overwhelmed by the scenery of the demon world she was seeing for the first time, Shari flew up and appeared in front of her.
But the situation is a little strange.
Unlike usual, I feel like he is looking at me hesitantly.
“Shari?”
Then suddenly, the scenes Shari sent me began to flash through my mind.
I saw a very kind-looking female demon.
Then, after passing the Demon King’s Castle, I saw a road leading to a village.
The female demon shown earlier in the village appears again.
I thought she looked strangely like Shari, but she was none other than Shari’s mother.
“You… ….”
Shari continued to send me various scenes.
On the way back, it seemed like there was a demon village where Shari lived.
“Do you miss your mom?”
Nod.
Shari looked at me and nodded her head slowly.
But immediately she hesitated and looked helpless.
“I’d like to see her mother on the way back to Kubel, but don’t you think it would be a good idea to ask her because it would put her in danger?”
It seems that Shari felt sorry for asking me a favor.
“Um… ….”
I have received quite a lot of help from Shari so far.
I think the help goes beyond what I provided at the Belle Epoque mansion.
Anyway, wouldn’t it be okay if it’s just a quick stop on the way back to Kubel?
Of course, it is risky for a human to wander around a village of demons, but if Shari showed up, she would at least not be attacked for not answering questions.
I quietly stretched out my hand and stroked Shari’s head as she looked at me.
It’s too bad she died and became a ghost, but it’s too bad she can’t see her mother either.
I don’t know if ghosts also age, but it is only natural for a child to want to see her mother.
“Let’s stop by and go. “I was curious about what kind of person your mother was.”
As soon as I finished speaking, a smile appeared on Shari’s face.
But since this is the demon world, you should be careful not to encounter warlike demons like Bloodstein.
Shari flew ahead with a happy expression and began to show me the way.
I walked slowly behind Shari, looking around her.
