The Possessor Has No Desire To Be a Protagonist - The Possessor Has No Desire To Be a Protagonist chapter 219

213. There was such a story

“Ouch! Ahh! He, stop hitting me!”

Arthur almost lost his temper and welcomed (?) his father. No matter how fantastic the barrier is, the pain is felt.

It’s all the father’s fault for leaving his wife and children in the village and going on an adventure.

In addition, it was also like that to meddling in other people’s family affairs. Everyone has at least one complicated family affair.

“Hey, Ethan… . Arthur, shouldn’t you dry it off?”

I nodded at Hesia’s question.

Still, I thought it would be better to stop Arthur at this point. It’s not good for children’s education… .

I approached the two and grabbed Arthur’s wrist.

“Arthur, that, calm down!”

“Ethan, let go of this! That person must be right!”

“But wait a minute, let’s talk.”

Arthur lost his temper, but apparently Uther had a reason for not returning home.

“Yeah, yes, that’s right! What a misunderstanding!”

Arthur sighed, as if his anger was still unresolved.

“Uncle Uther… .”

“Right. I am crying.”

“This is Arthur Pendragon. I am your son.”

At the mention of a son, Uther looked perplexed.

“Now, wait. I thought he looked a bit like me, but a son?”

“I saw it. Arthur? As you can see, my father doesn’t seem to remember… . If that’s the case, why don’t we just talk about it?”

Uther nodded eagerly.

Arthur was the only one who could break this ‘illusion barrier’ anyway.

“Right. Arthur. Please listen to me for a second. There were circumstances.”

It was wrong to leave my son and wife and went on an adventure, but from the other side, a young man jumped out and hit me, so I must have been embarrassed.

Arthur sighed, as if his anger was still unresolved.

“Come on, so let’s talk about it for now.”

Only then did Arthur break the fantasy barrier. Our consciousness returned to reality.

Soon we were gathered in Uther’s cabin.

Arthur glared at Uther with eyes burning with rage, even as he got out of the car.

Eventually, four teacups were placed in front of each other. Hessia glanced at Arthur and Uther alternately.

“Hessiah, would you like to go outside for a while?”

“Uh… . Call me back when you’re done talking.”

Hessia went straight outside as if she was uncomfortable with this seat.

“Are you really my son?”

“You don’t remember at all?”

Uther explained how he had lost his memory.

After hearing the story, while exploring the dungeon, the dungeon guard’s pincer attack led him to fall down a steep cliff during the battle.

When he came to his senses, he said he had lost his past memories.

Thanks to that, he forgot his wife and children and even the existence of his hometown for a long time.

“… … ”

“I’m sorry.”

Arthur’s green eyes seemed to burn fiercely. He was ready to shoot lasers from his eyes.

‘Of all the many reasons, what is memory loss… . Ah Hyun-ah… .’

Aren’t there quite a few clichés that the head of an adventurer won’t return?

For example, being actually held captive by the Demon World, or going on an adventure to find a way to deal with the sealed demon king… .

Suddenly, I wondered if there might be a good reason for Uther’s adventure.

A reason to leave your wife and children at home and go on an adventure alone.

“Arthur, wait.”

I put my hand on Arthur’s shoulder. Arthur was still breathing heavily, as if his anger was not resolved.

“Uncle Uther, what was the reason you wanted to go on an adventure in the first place? And why did you go to the eastern countries?”

“… that’s it… .”

Uther’s story continues.

Uther forgot the reason for the adventure and continued to wander aimlessly from place to place on the continent.

In the meantime, he found the Lynchester class and wandered around the continent looking for a way to recover his memories.

And by chance, across the wilderness, he visits the Eastern country because of the story that there is a magic that restores memories in the Eastern country.

Fortunately, Uther was able to regain his memory with the magic of the East. The real reason why he went on an adventure.

“The real reason I went on an adventure was to protect the empire from the resurrection of the demon king.”

The problem was that it took too long to recover the lost memories.

After recovering his memory with the magic of the East, Uther returned and greeted the empire that had already dealt with the demon king and reached peace.

Seeing this, there was no comedy.

“excuse me. First of all, uncle. So, do you have any memories of Arthur now?”

Uther couldn’t answer easily.

If you have regained your memory with the magic of the East, isn’t it normal to go back to your hometown?

“I’m sorry. Arthur… . I couldn’t bear to look for you.”

It is said that Uther visited the Empire from his hometown.

However, Arthur’s village had already disappeared from the map, and it is said that Uther, who had no place to settle, wandered the continent again and returned to this last village.

At that point, I had my doubts. So, if you passed through any city, you would find a magazine or newspaper, and it would have had Arthur’s picture on it.

No matter what anyone says, Arthur caught the demon king and interviewed numerous media outlets.

“Uther, Uncle Uther, Arthur has pictures of him in all sorts of magazines? Could it be that you didn’t know?”

At my question, Uther smiled mischievously.

“It was long. I didn’t think so though. I thought it was the same person. Because I’ve heard from adventurers in North Barn that there are no survivors of my hometown.”

So Uther knew that Arthur was dead.

That’s why, even after seeing the magazines with Arthur’s photos and interviews, he didn’t think of Arthur as his son.

“sorry. Arthur… .”

“… … ”

“Won’t you forgive your poor father?”

If Uther had been in the village, the village would not have been burned down in vain by the orcs’ attack.

If so, Arthur’s mother would have been alive, and Arianne would not have become a puppet of the Assassins.

Arthur might not have entered the academy to become a hero… .

At that point, I got up.

It will take a long conversation between the two of you. Arthur’s emotional trough will be deep right now.

Maybe a good Arthur would forgive his father…

“I thought the story would be long, but I’ll go and see Hesiah.”

“ah… , uh… . yes.”

I left the cabin leaving the two rich men behind. I like the weather too. He was going to take a walk with Hesia.

* * *

After Ethan left, there was silence in the cabin.

Arthur and Uther glanced at each other. Even then, no one was able to carry on the conversation easily.

“… That Arthur.” “that… . father… .”

As I opened my mouth at the same time, Uther waved his hand.

“Tell me first.”

“Tell me, Father… .”

“… sorry for that Even if you have ten mouths, you have nothing to say.”

“… … ”

Arthur let out a short sigh.

It was Uther who left himself and his wife in the village and went on an adventure for a cause. I couldn’t easily guess what my father had been through all this time.

Arthur remembered the last day his father left his hometown. Even though time has passed, the memory is still vivid.

Father left home when Arthur was five years old.

It was still before dawn.

A gloomy dawn hung outside the window. Arthur’s mother whispered as she cradled Uther in her arms.

“Look out. honey… .”

“Please take care of Arthur.”

“Aren’t you saying goodbye to Arthur?”

“Looking into Arthur’s eyes will make you feel weak…” .”

In my heart, I wanted to stay in my hometown with my rabbit-like wife and cute son.

However, Uther believed that knowing how to use golden magic was the power to deal with the demon king.

Uther Pendragon wanted to end the war against Pandemonium on his own.

“I will go. Please take care of yourself.”

Uther hugged his wife one last time and left the house. And Arthur lay in bed and listened to the story.

I couldn’t bear to get up and hug my father. Even though he was five years old, he was a more understanding Arthur than his peers.

And now, 16 years later, Arthur was facing his father.

“Actually, I was awake that day. The last time my father left home.”

“… I see.”

Arthur dreamed of becoming an adventurer because he heard about his father’s adventures from his mother. My father was an adventurer when I was young, and in my mother’s stories, my father was always a shining hero.

“that… , Tell me an adventure story.”

“Are you talking about adventures?”

“Yes. Anything is fine.”

Whatever it was, I wanted to hear my father’s story.

“When my father’s story is over, I’ll tell you about my adventures.”

“I don’t know what to say about this… .”

After thinking about it, Uther continued.

“Did you know that there is a huge empire in the East too?”

Uther’s story continued for a long time.

A group of stars looking up from the plains, people with their hair up, and even nomads wandering the vast grasslands.

Hearing the story, Arthur pictured a distant world.

“This is all my story. Arthur… . How was your adventure?”

At that question, Arthur pondered where to start talking.

“Where should I start talking? Oh yeah. My adventure story… . I think it was from when I entered the academy and met a friend with black hair. My name is Ethan… , He is a friend who came to visit me and my father today.”

Arthur smiled as he recalled the past.

Ethan appeared when he first confessed to him that he could see the status window in the dormitory, formed a club together, and when everyone was in danger in the battle of Arbia… .

And even the story of going to the dragon’s nest on a summer day together.

It was hectic and busy at the time, but looking back, it was all memories.

The story went on for a while. And when the story was over, the evening sun was setting outside the window before I knew it.
