Unsold Slaves Returned as Heroes - Unsold Slaves Returned as Heroes chapter 32

32. Reunion

The scenery passes by in an instant.

All you can hear is the footsteps of three people.

And breathing.

Only one place, one person.

The sound of breathing that shares the same heart.

All other sounds and vision gradually closed and disappeared.

Instinct tells you that you don’t need any other senses. Black except for one purpose. Just black out

I miss you.

I want to meet you.

I’ve been patient too long.

The three of us were together through the most difficult times, the happiest times, and the moments when we overcame everything, so we know each other so well even without speaking.

At this moment, everyone feels the same.

I think the same thing.

Luca wiggled and recalled her right hand gripping the handle of her sword.

She was always alone.

No one has memories of when they were born, but their senses follow them throughout their lives.

For Luca, it was a sense of loneliness.

All ties he had before becoming a slave were cut off.

With a sharp blade, that weapon called a sword.

Luca hated swords.

But when she first met her master, she realized that the sword was not meant to hurt, but to protect.

She may not be a means to return her solitude to her enemies, but a medium to connect her own ties. She

She realized that with it she could protect her precious Tia and Yuri.

So, even after she broke up with her master, she continued to train hard.

I was weak and couldn’t protect my master.

She couldn’t even protect her master’s heart, who wanted to protect them.

I decided to become stronger and stronger.

I hope that one day the day will come when I can protect my master with this sword.

Will my master praise me if he sees me now?

Do you want to play with me like before and train together?

I am not familiar with the theory that memories are most beautiful when they remain as memories.

I just want to immerse myself in the sensations of that time once again.

And this time, with the mindset that I will protect my master from any danger.

For her simple purpose, Luca moved her leg.

Tia wanted to check again.

A human who hated himself as a dark elf.

The slave trader who hacked his heart and eventually kidnapped him is also human.

It was a relationship with the master that began with hostility toward that kind of human race.

When I think about it now, I wonder if it wasn’t me who had the prejudice.

Because that person was neither a human nor a slave trader, he was just that person.

A lot of time has passed. During that time, Tia learned a lot. She was smart, so she understood the whole world even in the small magic tower room.

But there was one thing she still couldn’t figure out.

When he comes to his senses, he sees only that person in his head, and he is obsessed with the orange mana he left behind that remains weak and circulates inside his body.

Is this love, romance, or just wanting to reciprocate?

The fact that elves sometimes keep short-lived humans as pets might be such an instinct.

… I don’t know.

It’s not written in the book.

All of this is just speculation, I don’t know what’s on my mind either.

So if I ever meet my master again, I want to start over.

I want to check it slowly.

So, if this pounding feeling doesn’t change when I meet him again.

… No, I hope it doesn’t change.

Yes. I’m probably

From noble mtl dot com

My master from the beginning.

As if answering that certainty, a passing wind swept through Tia’s flowing blonde hair.

Yuri’s head was on the verge of exploding.

Already, the blood is too hot, the eyes are bloodshot, the tail is straight, and if you lose your mind for a second, you feel like you’ll jump on all fours.

Master, master, master, master.

The master of glass.

The battles and rules she had already shared with the other two in the name of the goddess had long since evaporated from her mind.

As the reason, the love, and the familiar pheromones that she has kept as a saint for a long time enter her nose, the wolf’s instinct gradually eats them up.

13 Years. It was too long though.

Wolves, being warm-blooded animals, needed warmth to replenish their lost body heat.

Since when did this happen? Why did you change so blindly?

I wonder if it’s because he’s the only one before, after, and until now.

It’s okay to dismiss it as instinct.

It’s okay to curse at me for being low.

My feelings for my master, my passion that I keep secret without telling anyone, will surely not be defeated by anyone.

I have one wish.

Just like back then.

Can I call you older brother?

No one has to say first, the steps are quick. The floor where the boots touched is dug deep, and the scenery passes by them without a chance to look.

“Luca, over there!”

“Yes.”

Tia has found her target.

The barrier of the west wind, which seemed to be Aisha’s aura, stretched high into the sky in the center of the Colosseum-shaped building.

“I’ll jump!”

“I’ll help!”

Needless to say, thanks to the experience we have been together for a long time, we can put together with just a glance.

When Tia applied her leg strength, Yuri hugged the two of them and jumped up in an instant.

With a roar, a large crack was left where I stepped on it.

The three checked the situation from the air.

“Oh, I really—! What can’t be solved!!”

Aisha was pumping her aura to the limit, sweating profusely from her blushing face.

The three immediately understood what she was trying to imprison. During the battle, he realized that the demons he had been dealing with had lost their caster.

It was clear that the void was spreading due to the death of the magician and the runaway contract.

“I’ll enter.”

Luca raised her sword towards her and let out an aura. As a counteraction, the three of them rush towards the black void inside Aisha’s aura.

Everybody prepares their own skills.

A beautiful longsword with blue aura,

The 6th tier flame that burns with passion,

A sparkling strong fist wrapped in divine power.

“””Haaa!!”””

As they rushed forward with a spirited spirit, they collided and exploded at one pole.

―――The wind blows.

Three people landed one after the other in the main arena, where only peaceful silence remained, caressed by Aisha’s gentle west wind.

The dust on the floor, which had been climbing in a whirlwind, stops and slowly settles.

The purified black magic glittered and fell like meteors in the night sky.

“―――Ah.”

The first person to spot him was Tia.

The blond Dark Elf, who inadvertently stood up slowly while holding a staff, met his gaze with his black eyes.

“…… It’s okay.”

Luca also put his figure in his field of vision.

Even in this dangerous place, he has no fear in his posture even though he only has a wooden sword in his hand.

There was no doubt that he was in my memory as he stood proudly with his back straight.

“Note―――”

Yuri’s voice is blocked when she inadvertently calls out his name.

She couldn’t call him anymore because of the match contract she made with the goddess.

It was only then that Yuri realized that he had tied himself up with stupid conditions.

I have to force myself to hold back the desire to run to him and hug him even now, and because of that, this moment when his hands and feet are shaking is so painful.

Luca also hides painful emotions in that expressionless expression. I forcefully gritting my teeth and tightening my grip on the hand holding the sword.

The match has begun. He couldn’t cripple his first impression of him.

I want to be seen as a cool, competent, talented freshman.

I have to.

So… To do.

Tia also prepared to greet him for the first time, barely maintaining an expression on her face that looked like it would break at any moment.

Hello, Professor Pedia.

Nice to meet you. It’s called Testia.

Hello, Pedia… Professor.

Hello….

Every time I reflect on it, the heart’s atria and blood vessels tighten.

―Jeobuck, Jeobuck.

I hear the sound of his footsteps on the dirt floor of the stadium.

One step, one step.

To themselves.

The distance is getting closer.

As the dust clears, you can see his figure more and more clearly.

“…… Ah.”

I let out a sigh.

A lot. A lot has changed.

There is no distance-free movement of a street adventurer who feels friendly, but there is a restrained gait of an aristocrat who is attached to rituals and etiquette.

The body of the young swordsman who was in the middle of training has finished growing to the limit. He has perfected his muscles to be optimized for survival in the wild.

It’s rough, but it’s hard to find a gap in emotions because several layers of iron masks are melted and soldered on the face, which has a playfulness somewhere.

Nevertheless, the four letters still written above his head are the same.

While the three of them were fulfilling their responsibilities to escape from , He also devoted his life to escaping from .

But he has changed like that because he hasn’t been able to do it until now.

The moment the three witnessed the master, they understood him and regretted it at the same time.

I regretted deeply in my heart that I should not have left him then, that I should have stayed by his side even if it meant letting the world perish.

However, the time to sort out the emotions was not given for long. The master, who was tall, had a wide, quick stride, and seemed to be in a hurry.

The three masters finally stood in front of them.

And.

***

I recognized it from the moment it suddenly flew from the sky, burst into the void, and landed.

I couldn’t see any name tags because they were covered in dust and whirlwinds, and I didn’t even need them in the first place.

Of course.

No matter how much her appearance changed, no matter how different her atmosphere was, even if she misunderstood her gender or race.

How these children grew up and what they will look like.

What would your face look like, what would your voice be like, what would your specialty be, what would your personality be like.

I wonder if White is still timid, but Black seems to have become lively and positive, and Yellow is surprisingly good at joking.

Because I’ve imagined that kind of imagination every day, countless times, endlessly.

There’s no way I wouldn’t recognize these kids.

Take a step.

It’s not something I did after thinking about it. Before I knew it, my body was moving like that.

I feel like a child going to get candy. Without realizing it, my steps speed up.

I see three faces. Everyone is looking up at me with a worried expression somewhere.

I don’t know why. Instinctively, the arm came out first.

Black on the left arm, yellow and white on the right.

West even one of the three escaped, I stretched out my arms as far as I could and embraced them.

While holding all three tightly, I spoke the words I had wanted to say for a long time.

“Welcome, everyone.”

All three burst into tears, no matter who said it first.

“I’m back….”

“Bo, I missed you….”

“Huh, I’m back, I’m back… !”

We felt each other’s body temperature for a long time.
