The Hero Disciple Is Back - Chapter 86



85. The Disciple Danced with Swords

“Seo. The holy sword is here.”

The Celestial Elena spent a long time with Sera, having such an honest conversation(?), but her appearance was completely normal. Due to her Celestial nature, she had recovered in an instant. However, that did not mean that the Celestial Elena could show her arrogance again. No matter how much she recovered, the memories of pain could not be erased. Furthermore, if she was still feeling pain, she would collapse even more.

‘It hurts so much! It hurts like crazy?!’

Although his appearance had clearly recovered thanks to the amazing resilience unique to the Celestials, he was still in terribly painful.

It was as if he had studied for a long time how to torment the celestials… As if he had discovered the most reliable way to torment the celestials after countless failures… He was a warrior who had demonstrated techniques to torment the celestials so thoroughly that it felt like such a metaphor was not enough.

In the end, Celestial Elena had no choice but to throw away everything she had considered so important, including her pride as a Celestial. She felt like she was really going to die if she continued like this.

Even though she had pride in being the best race… she knew that pride could only be felt while alive, so Celestial Elena could not help but put down her great pride.

In the end, after getting everything she could from all the bullying, she had no choice but to hand over the holy sword she had planned to give him.

“Hmm.”

Even though I obtained that precious holy sword

The warrior guy is like… .

【It doesn’t look that good, and I don’t think it’s necessary…】

I looked at the Holy Sword with such a feeling.

Ugh!

As a Celestial Elena, I couldn’t help but feel sad.

Is the Holy Sword an ordinary item?

It was literally a one-of-a-kind sword.

It was a sword imbued with the power of the gods, and at the same time, it was a great sword that proved the existence of the gods.

A sword like that would be such a precious object that a mere mortal would not be able to look down on it… .

Clang!

… it must be an object?

Huh?

Why is the Holy Sword rolling on the ground like trash?

Doesn’t it look like someone dropped the holy sword they were holding? Oh, right. People can make mistakes at any time. So it’s possible for a warrior to accidentally drop the holy sword. But if that happens, he’ll pick it up right away. He’ll be impatient, hasty, and quick. It’s normal to try to make the incredibly improbable mistake he made a moment ago seem like it never happened. That’s just natural.

…however

…Why don’t you pick it up?

I have to pick it up! I have to pick it up right now!

You dropped the holy sword?!

But no matter how much time passed, the Holy Sword was still lying on the ground.

As if it were really trash… .

As if it wasn’t worth picking up… .

‘That can’t be! That’s a holy sword!’

From noble mtl dot com

How dare you touch the symbol left by God! That precious relic! How could you do that!

This should be frustrating!

You should be angry!

I am a great celestial!

He who upholds God’s will to the end!

If I don’t get angry here, I’m just a winged human!

That can’t be happening!

“How dare you treat the Holy Sword like trash… Kkeueeek!”

♧♧♧

“Seo. The Holy Sword is trash… . The Holy Sword is trash… . The Holy Sword is trash… . The Holy Sword is trash… . The Holy Sword is trash… . The Holy Sword is trash… .”

The celestial Elena, whose face looked as if she had lost her soul, was repeating the same words in a dazed state. Naturally, it was the result of Sera’s kind education(?).

‘That’s not exactly wrong.’

The holy sword is….

Trash was right… .

Even gods died at the hands of the Demon King.

That meant that the aftereffects of the Demon King were just as severe as those of the Celestials, and even the gods were suffering just as much. As a result, the vast divine power contained in the Holy Sword had all evaporated, and what remained was not so great. Of course, since it was a Holy Sword, it was stronger and less likely to break than what humans called famous swords… .

If you were to ask if this was something so absolute that it could turn the tide of the battle with the Demon King, I would naturally answer, ‘Absolutely not.’ It was just something that was good to have, and it didn’t really matter if it wasn’t there… That was the level of the Holy Sword.

‘The celestials will worship and brag about how great they are just because they are strong…’

‘Do you know how strong our treasure is?! Even when I accidentally dropped it, not a single crack was left!’ It sounds good, but it’s hard to express… Those who would rave about such logic were the Celestials. The Warrior of Infinite Regression had to go through that very tiresomely.

‘It would be better to deal with the demons.’

Meet.

Fight.

Kill.

It was such a simple relationship that it was very comfortable for the enemy, the Demon Tribe.

But the Celestials… .

Not even the enemy.

However, it is not a perfect ally.

Neither this nor that.

On that topic, they try to show off all kinds of bullying.

As a result, it’s incredibly annoying.

Among the remaining celestials, the youngest, Elena, can be resolved through honest conversation(?), but as you go up, they are ghosts of the past themselves, so conversation itself is not possible. It goes without saying that the celestials at the very top are the old farts. No matter how much time you have for honest conversation(?) with them, it is useless. They have been obsessed with ghosts of the past for so long that even their souls have been dyed by them, so even if Sera, a human, says something, even if she is a warrior, it is useless.

‘You were defeated by a human like me, so listen to me… “Your strength ultimately comes from the warrior, and the warrior is ultimately the will of the gods, so we were not defeated by humans, but by the will of the gods.”… I thought to myself, and achieved a moral victory.’

From the beginning, no matter what I said to the old farts who had thoroughly prepared themselves to say, ‘I am always right. Everything you say is always wrong,’ they would only treat me as nonsense. That was why Sera gave up on the idea of ​​dealing with the Celestials. Since she was a human…

‘Because I’m a human?’

A sudden thought occurred to Sarah.

To be precise, I was thinking of some possibilities.

What if we completely ignore human speech?

Wouldn’t it be okay if a transcendent race came forward?

Sarah couldn’t help but realize that she had been caught up in a fixed idea. More precisely, she had thought that she, as a warrior, had to solve everything.

however

Aren’t you alone?

“Hoo hoo hoo hoo”

Sarah laughed.

Every time she smiles

Celestial Elena shuddered.

No matter how she looked at it, her instincts told her that what was going on in that warrior’s head was definitely something bad for herself or the Celestials.

♧♧♧

Archangel Lyella

The position of Archangel was the position that represented the Celestials for generations. Originally, sitting in the position of Archangel meant being the wisest and greatest Celestial. However, Lyella knew. He was the most miserable Archangel among all the Archangels of all time. The reason he could become Archangel was because there were no Celestials with such experience left.

God did not give humans excellence and competence, but instead gave them the ability to reproduce, and as a result, humans recovered to the point where they completely forgot about the Demon King. However, God did not give the celestials the ability to reproduce, but instead gave them excellence and competence, and as a result, the celestials never recovered any of their past glory.

In the end, all the remaining celestials could do was yearn for their past glory, be content with it, and remain mentally bound to it.

Actually, we all know that.

That means there is no future for the celestials. The dragons had destroyed themselves, but there was no one among the celestials who did not know that a similar ending awaited them.

“Ereina hasn’t come back yet?”

“Isn’t it your first time going out in a while? You’re young, so it must be fun. Isn’t it a privilege of youth to be able to enjoy the world of mere humans?”

The archangel nodded at the elder’s words. Elena was the youngest of the few remaining celestials, so she was the only celestial who could feel such youthful energy. So she could be left freer. There was no way a celestial could be defeated by mere humans. Even if she was the youngest, she was still the youngest among the celestials, and even if she was a warrior, there was no way she could do anything to Elena… .

“Eww! Archangel!”

… but there isn’t any?

Huh? Isn’t he our youngest?

“Eh. Eriina? What happened? Why are those wings that you were so proud of so beautifully in such a state?!”

The news of the youngest being harmed spread like wildfire, and it was only natural that the Celestials would go into chaos. After all, there was no family that wouldn’t be angry at the cute youngest being harmed.

In front of them

A human appeared, holding a pure white holy sword that was very familiar to them.

“There are so many familiar faces.”

The warrior of Infinite Regression looked at them as if he was familiar with them.

Soon, the sword dance of the warrior holding the holy sword covered the celestials.

“Gyaaah!!!”

“Kuaaah!!!”

“Run away!!!!!”

In the beautiful and ancient heaven that the celestials were so proud of, a sound like the beating of the prisoners of hell resonated.
