What the Hero Wanted Was Me - Chapter 30



Episode 30

Chapter 30.

Tears flowing from my eyes wet my cheeks and flowed down. What was flowing was the regrets of the past and the feelings that were already too late.

“Why is the teacher crying?”

“…It was all my greed”

My desire to create a peaceful state only made Eren sick and suffering.

Because I am a warrior, I must work for peace. I saw such Eren as a warrior, not just a woman, and I hurt Eren because of that.

For what purpose did you desire world peace? Knowing the contents of the future, I have only made Eren do difficult things.

Has peace come to Eren’s heart, who has been silently doing such difficult things? Eren was showing her that she couldn’t.

‘What’s wrong with not being responsible for one person’s peace?’

What did you strive for for 8 years? I felt ashamed that I had come for peace.

“You knew that too..?”

ㅡ…Nod

Eren swallowed the tears that were about to flow out of her and nodded her head as she faced the truth she didn’t want to admit.

“I only saw you as a tool…”

A warrior who must move for peace. Protagonist in the novel. That was Eren’s existence, which I was mistaken about.

It didn’t just work for Eren, it didn’t work for her other kids either. The mid-boss Sera, the mad princess Aria, the human hunter Siana, and the fanatical Laisha.

I have only seen them as dangers in novels, and I have ignored the true character of her.

So I ignored the feelings they had for me, pretended not to know, and justified myself by saying it was for peace.

“You guys are human too…”

I finally got to see them again.

Sarah has regained her emotions by escaping from her difficult past.

Aria doesn’t know how to do anything, but tries to change herself.

Siana can’t be honest and expresses herself violently.

Laysha is crazy about money.

This was the side of the warrior party I saw, not the ones in the novel. And..

“Thank you, Eren.”

Eren has lived her life harder than anyone else and has done hard things without showing anything.

She was a hero before a hero.

“..You finally told me.”

Thank you.

Eren’s heart, which had been blizzarded, blossomed into spring, no doubt how painful that word was.

Eren was able to bloom because of the existence of a nutrient called Lenny. She welcomed Lenny with bright flowers.

“Thank you very much.”

Now that you look at me and praise me. For guiding me on the right path. Eren held Lenny’s hand and whispered to him.

“You are not alone.”

Eren made up his mind that he didn’t want Lenny to suffer from the problem of peace anymore.

“I will be your peace.”

To relieve the burden on Lenny’s heart.

‘If one of her colleagues is having a hard time, believe in that friend and help her to the end.’

Eren said that even though she had violated what Lenny taught her, she never forgot her.

‘Thank you..’

I was finally able to see the tombstones of Eren’s parents behind her, and I couldn’t help but express my gratitude to her parents.

After talking with Eren for a few minutes and calming down, we said goodbye to her parents and left the cemetery.

I walked toward the mansion thinking about the future, leaving no regrets behind.

•••

“You came back pretty quickly? I thought you wouldn’t come back for three years.”

When Eren, who seemed to be running away for several years, came back, Sarah started to make fun of her.

‘What..?’

Sera then noticed a subtle change in Lenny. Should I say something has changed? The tired eyes that usually looked at me had disappeared.

“Yeah, by accident. You came back so early? I’m sorry about earlier, Sera.”

Sera was in great shock. Is it Eren who fell for her basic provocation by showing off her kiss marks? She was apologizing to herself with a clearer expression than ever before.

Something. Seen by Eren.

It’s not a purple love that’s different from one’s own.

Dignity is what it is.

‘Surely, Lenny is mine anyway.’

Love never changes.

Sarah said as she held Lenny’s arm to her own chest and looked at her Eren.

“Let’s go do something nice, I..I’m fine today too..”

Although the aftereffects of last night remained, Sera desperately seduced Lenny in order to get her Lenny, and it seemed to work for Lenny.

“Sure, I have work, so would you like to wait in my room?”

‘Have you seen it? This is me.’

Sarah shook her head vigorously at Lenny’s words and looked at her Eren, smiling at her superiority.

The winner’s smile.

Eren just looked at Sera with a benevolent smile. As if she would do it.

Sarah left for Lenny’s room, not understanding the meaning of her smile.

“Do you have to scold me hard enough to bring me to tears?”

“..Okay.”

Eren asked me to make one promise before she returned to the mansion. It was something I couldn’t help but listen to.

‘So, did you really sleep with Sera?’

While walking to her mansion, Eren suddenly asked about my relationship with Sera. I couldn’t lie to Eren, so I told her the truth.

‘I slept. Just once.’

‘Hmm..’

Thinking about the word once, Eren looked at me and asked me to make a promise.

‘I’ll never see Sera go wild’

Eren, who said she couldn’t see Sera running amok as if she was her fiancee, even though she only slept once, she begged her to die.

‘That…That’

It was hard for me to treat the woman who gave me her virgin last night coldly. Even more so in the case of Sera, who is the most confused.

It was time to turn down Eren’s request.

‘I’ll tear up the contract.’

You mean the butler’s contract? The contract had just been modified, so there was no need to tear it up, but that wasn’t the contract Eren was talking about.

‘I’ll tear up the ownership contract for Lenny.’

‘…!’

Did that exist as a contract? The ownership she thought was a verbal wish was Eren, who was said to remain as a document due to the Emperor’s meticulousness.

‘This is something I secretly had, so I’ll give it a special try’

Please stop Sera from acting out. That was the promise Eren wanted.

‘I will…’

If she was the old me, there was a high probability that she wouldn’t have said that Sera was in danger of going out of control.

However, the changed me now was different.

‘I believe in Sera.’

Believing in the mentality of Sera who loves me and thinking that Sera, whom I had been praying for, would slaughter her people, I made a deal with Eren.

“Hwaiting!! You must make me cry!!”

Eren shouted as she waved her hand at me as I returned to her room. It was the brightest moment among Eren’s expressions I saw today.

ㅡKikiiik..

“Oh.. Are you here?”

Sera seemed to be getting ready for her full bloom. She greeted me while covering herself with a blanket.

Judging by the bare skin on her shoulders forming her fine lines, Sera under the blanket was the moment she expected.

“Sera, put on her clothes and sit in the chair.”

“Yes..Four..?”

I scolded the bewildered Sera, using a serious tone as I did when educating her attendants.

“15 Seconds.”

‘Why…Why are you doing that?’

Sarah hurriedly put on the clothes she had taken off in a hurry at Lenny’s change. Her strength was that she was strong, but in her heart she was weak.

‘You like to dress up?’

You have a perverted side. Serra, misunderstanding her Lenny’s words, hugged Lenny, who was standing all dressed in her clothes.

‘Now hug me and stroke my head…’

Sarah recalled yesterday’s situation and expected her actions after that, but her behavior of Lenny was different from yesterday.

“Did I ask you to sit or hug me?”

“Yes..?”

Sarah, noticing that her mood was different from yesterday, sat down in her chair and looked at her Lenny. His eyes were a different color from the ones he was looking at me yesterday.

If yesterday was pink, today…

“I never asked Eren to tell me about our relationship.”

Black. It was black, invisible.

Afterwards, Sarah received a full two-hour sermon from Lenny.

“Well.. Not good..”

After that day, Sara, who died, did not reveal her relationship with Lenny to anyone anymore.

•••

“Is this a city where humans live?”

The male elf, who was in the center of the city and was receiving everyone’s attention, was looking around.

“Brother! What are you doing like a country boy!”

Behind him, an angry female elf was screaming as if she was ashamed of her brother and pulling him down from the fountain.

“Don’t stop, Ciela. Search the surroundings from top to bottom. That’s the elf way of searching.

“Ugh…”

The female elf, who seemed to be her little sister, seemed to have judged that she could no longer stop the male elf, and was just waiting, stamping her feet, for someone to come.

“Ugh… Where did everyone go…”

The family members who disappeared to find out where the hero’s mansion was, couldn’t see where or what they were doing for several minutes.

After about 10 minutes, when the gazes of passers-by got used to it, an elf couple who seemed to be her family were approaching the fountain.

“Where did you go..!!”

Ciela, the female elf, shouted at them and asked them to stop her brother. With the elf couple’s dissuade, the male elf was able to step on the ground again.

He asked the eldest-looking elf if he couldn’t see the mansion from the top of the fountain.

“Father, did you find out about the mansion?”

“It’s located on the outskirts of the city.”

The father elf somehow obtained the location of the mansion and asked his family to head there, and the elf was expecting a reunion.

‘We finally meet.’

A fugitive from the World Tree.

‘My daughter.’

Siana Efri.

It was the moment her family arrived in the empire.
