Chapter 68: A Story About Being Reincarnated In One other World.
Crackle, crackle.
It was time to sleep after the meal.
I made a decision to take the primary watch, sitting in entrance of the campfire and checking the situation of my spear and armor.
I had firmly barricaded the doorway and the connecting hall, however there was nonetheless a threat that they might be breached like earlier than.
Brother. Can I discuss to you for a second?
However maybe due to the occasions of the day?
Ga-ram, who had been tossing and turning beneath the blanket, ultimately couldnt go to sleep and began speaking to me.
Relaxation up. We have to preserve our power for tomorrow.
I cant sleep.
Do you continue to not belief me?
No, no, its not that I dont have the disgrace to mistrust you after you risked your life to save lots of me.
Yi Ga-ram unexpectedly shook her head in response to my probing query.
I might faintly see her fingers fidgeting beneath the blanket.
I simply wished to ask you one thing.
Was her shy strategy after such silence resulting from nervousness?
Regardless of the purpose, if that query was retaining her awake, I needed to handle it, so I nodded, and he or she instantly requested her query.
Brother, you actually hate heroes, dont you?
I do.
It was a response with no hint of falsehood.
A response anybody however a hero would empathize with.
Youve seen heroes too, proper? You know the way they mistreat adventurers and laborers like me.
Ive seen dozens die from vanity and carelessness, even in entrance of monsters theyd met earlier than.
Heroes had been invariably creatures of such nature.
Until the system entrenched in human society had been overhauled, such sorts would proceed to extend.
The infinite inflow of so-called heroes exploiting the overwhelming majority of residents and international employees alike.
Then, why did you agree to affix my get together?
If you wish to resent me, you may.
Nonetheless, in contrast to them, this baby, having realized her place, might not maintain pleasure in herself.
Her passive demeanor would certainly be seen as contemptible even by the idolizing lots.
As a lot as I struggled to deal with myself, I couldnt shamelessly exploit such a baby.
Since you deserve higher.
All of the extra as a result of I used to be the explanation she ended up in such a state.
Even so, I used to be ready to simply accept no matter response got here my method.
No, I dont resent you.
Truly, Yi Ga-ram harbored no resentment.
She simply gave me a bitter smile and spoke.
You saved me, and greater than that, if I hadnt met you, I might have acted like the opposite heroes when going through related enemies.
As an alternative, she thought that shedding her confidence by way of our assembly may be the explanation she was nonetheless alive.
The lady, accepting this as enlightenment, had even remodeled her potential resentment in direction of me into gratitude.
Is that sufficient?
Sure, really, Im extra snug with this.
That was the conclusion the lady had chosen for her story.
Not revenge in opposition to the merciless Hero Killer who had led to her fall as a hero.
However a story of enlightenment and lifesaving grace from one particular person to a lady.
Crackle, crackle.
Even after that conclusion, the sound of the campfire burning continued.
Whereas listening to it, Yi Ga-ram, who ought to have been sleeping, got here to my aspect and began to lean in opposition to me.
I cant sleep. Are you able to hearken to extra of my story?
Do as you are feeling snug.
If she couldnt sleep straight away, I ought to preserve her firm till she was glad.
The prelude to the story, which I listened to with a light-weight coronary heart, turned out to be a lot heavier than I had thought.
Earlier than I got here to this world, I attempted to leap off the roof of my faculty.
No, I did soar. If I hadnt, I wouldnt have come to this world.
Sure, one of many circumstances for reincarnating on this world was being getting ready to demise on the time of summoning.
Being hit by a truck, falling from a constructing, and so forth. The final reminiscences of people that got here into this world had been normally like that.
This baby fulfilled these circumstances along with her personal fingers
It was one thing she did at an age earlier than even graduating center faculty.
At first, I used to be scared. Individuals who had been disenchanted in me all the time tormented me. I used to be all the time ignored by others, however on this world, I grew to become the article of expectations.
This fragile lady, who even ran away from her personal world, was awaited by a mission as a hero to save lots of this world.
S-sorry. Its simply too humorous Not hit by a truck, however by a-a toy Pfft, AHAHAHA!!
Given my very own scenario, I spoke about it calmly, but when I had heard it from another person, I might need laughed too.
Nonetheless, was it due to the beforehand gloomy environment?
This brighter response felt surprisingly welcome.
Even when it was only for a quick second, such instances had been deemed crucial for the journey forward.
You have to have had a tough time too, Brother.
As her laughter subsided, the pitiful lady checked out me with a sympathetic face.
Realizing that the pity had shifted to me, I gave an ambiguous smile to disclaim her phrases.
No, nicely, the hardship within the dungeon was as a result of I overdid it. Aside from that, it was bearable.
I made a selection, however for you, it was an accident. Not like me, who thought one other world can be higher, you didnt have that
Why did we find yourself in such a world?
Crackle, crackle.
Because the firewood we introduced was virtually used up, with the final piece of firewood splitting and sparks flying, Yi Ga-ram, who had turned away from me for a second, pulled one thing out of her backpack and supplied it to me.
It was a gemstone.
No, to be exact, it was a magic core processed for direct use by adventurers.
This why?
Proper now, that is all I can supply For those who want it, please take it, Brother.
Looted from a heros corpse after we first entered the dungeon, this was a top-level merchandise that allowed even these with out the power to deal with magic to make use of high-powered spells or magical instruments.
Such an merchandise was not simple to return by, even in dungeons.
This baby, as if unaware of its worth, was willingly providing it to me.
Are you positive?
Its not with no value. I simply thought that you just, Brother, would hearken to my request.
Certainly, she wished to meet her want, it doesn’t matter what it value.
Indicating that she wasnt joking, Yi Ga-ram handed me the magic core and stated, wanting up at me,
I wont ask for something unreasonable. I perceive sufficient about how this world works.
Sure, this was a commerce.
Not a requirement made with the authority of a hero, however a request from one individual to a different, a younger lady searching for assist from an grownup she might depend on.
I wouldnt be so shameless as to ask you to prioritize me over your self, particularly after youve already saved my life.
The lady stated this, earnestly hoping I might settle for her request.
However till then
Sometime.
Earlier than the harshness of this world would overwhelm me, forcing me to desert myself
If theres no purpose so that you can go away my aspect till then, might you stick with me?
Even when only for the meantime, she hoped I might watch her again throughout her precarious journey.
For this, she would neglect any previous grudges, give every thing she might, and even lend the status of being a hero if crucial.
Sure.
Within the gentle of the campfire, illuminating the deep abyss of sincerity, I clenched the magic core in my hand and responded.
Not only for the core itself.
My path forward was as harsh as this ladies.
Abandoning this path for security on this harsh world would imply by no means discovering full peace, so I have to develop stronger.
Lets survive collectively any more as nicely.
With this realization, I grasped the ladies hand as an alternative of the magic core, resolving one factor.
To outlive myself.
And to attain what I couldnt but accomplish, for now, I made a decision to begin by nurturing this baby into a correct hero.
After which, time handed, in a kingdom positioned on the sting of the continent.
Clatter, clatter.
No, now on the trail of what was as soon as referred to as a kingdom, now a rundown ghost city, the horse pulling the carriage moved in direction of its vacation spot, leaving a blue path behind.
Beneath the cloudy sky, passing by way of foggy forests and checkpoints, quickly got here the crumbling, collapsing ghost city
We’ve arrived, Your Majesty.
On the finish, the carriage stopped in entrance of an outdated temple, and the coachman, releasing the reins, greeted him.
However to a residing corpse, correct manners had been past expectation.
All he did was relive the reminiscences of when he was alive, repeating actions as he had responded to individuals again then.
Please chorus from utilizing that title.
Feeling a way of nostalgia, the previous king, Briton IV, clad in armor, stepped out of the carriage quietly.
Crossing the remnants of his once-ruled land, he headed in direction of the ruined church at its middle.
Now, I’m not a king, however merely a knight.
Certainly, he’s not a fallen king however a Knight of Dying.
His sole mission was to serve the Corpse Lord, solely for his personal unfinished regrets.
