Chapter 383

Episode 383 Even if I shake it again and again (2)

“...Why?”

No really why? Why is the answer that it’s okay?!

I was so embarrassed that I ended up spitting out a question out of my mouth. Fortunately, no one cared about my attitude.

“How can I stop what the Great Master is doing?”

On the contrary, the girl turned her head to me and gave me a clear answer. It was an amazing answer.

“...Weren’t we close friends?”

“In the South, do you call a one-sided relationship close?”

That’s not true though. If the relationship is more one-sided than that, shouldn’t it be stopped even more?! They say people are going to death...!

“...What I want to do is kill Satan. “We are going to face a demon more powerful than anyone else in the world in a place more dangerous than this snowy field.”

“yes.”

“Of course, the danger of this act is indescribable. “She just said she couldn’t guarantee it, but in reality, it was more likely that she would come back dead.”

They say words can be harmful, but did you say it too much like a curse, regardless of the intention to scare them?

no. We even had a hard time dealing with this wolf. It is not certain whether Satan is stronger or weaker than the wolf, but he is at least an equivalent being. Considering that, even this statement may not be an exaggeration. I decided not to retract that statement.

“But are you really going to say it’s okay?”

Anyway, I don’t think the girl will change her mind at this rate. At least if there is any sign of hesitation, I will be able to object.

While I was secretly hoping, the girl opened her small mouth.

“If that is the Great Master’s choice.”

It was wrong. My mind started screaming out loud.

“...I think the story will be long. “Let’s go inside.”

“I agree with going inside, but the story itself has been decided, right?”

Berserk hesitated at my words. The point was that since the girl gave permission, it was decided that he would join. It wasn’t wrong, but my heart couldn’t accept it yet. I pretended not to hear her.

“Now sit down.”

I sat in front of a bonfire where Erutalc carved a magic circle on the floor and the flames came out endlessly as long as I replenished the magic power from time to time. Of course, even if there was a fire, it would be cold if she just sat there, so I put my sleeping bag on the girl’s seat.

The girl fidgeted and sat down in a W-shape as Deathbringer and Berserk pushed her back. That’s not good for your hip joints. My eyes briefly fell on the girl’s way of sitting, and I promised myself that I would tell her later.

“I’m saying it again because I don’t think it really hit home, but...”

“I know. It is a truly dangerous place, no less than the glacier ordeal. “If even the great warrior cannot guarantee his life, the place is probably twice as fierce and harsh as this land.”

“...okay.”

It’s not that I didn’t know. Yes, it’s not that I don’t know, but I still said it was okay. I felt my last hope fading away and let out my last struggling sentence.

“You didn’t want to part ways with the great warrior, did you?”

I love Daejeon Temple and will follow you here, so why are you allowing us to split up? huh?

“that’s right. “I’m sad to be parting ways with the great warrior.”

“Then...”

“But it’s even sadder that the Great Warrior stops because of me.”

No, why does it happen like that...! baby!!

“I heard it. “It’s because of me that Master Daejeon gave up his family...”

“...It’s none of your business.”

While I was jumping up and down and holding my head, the girl spoke softly. For your information, it was Berserk, not me, who consoled the girl.

The girl brought her writhing fingers together on her thighs at the seemingly cold but kind words.

“...I’m glad you said that. But... it’s true that you gave up something because of me. I... I was happy about that, but I was also very sad...”

And the fingers immediately curled up into a circle. The swollen backs of my hands and the calluses between them stood out along with the bones.

“I like Daejeonsa. “If possible, I would like to be with Daejeonsa.”

“then.”

“But that doesn’t mean I want to become an obstacle to you, Master Daejeon. “The great warrior who does what he wants shines so dazzlingly that it obscures the night sky.”

At the same time, his flushed cheeks began to sparkle with longing and his fresh eyes filled with respect.

“So, Daejeonsa, live the life of a Daejeonsa. “I will do the chasing.”

I lost this one. I had a feeling that I couldn’t stop the girl’s decision. She truly was a girl with a heart stronger than granite.

“...And what if I can’t keep up?”

While I was getting frustrated, Deathbringer, who had been quietly listening next to me, intervened. There’s something about the hand that is fiddling with an illegal sword that seems intimidating.

“It’s sad, but it happened because I wasn’t good enough, so I have to deal with it.”

“...Do you have no regrets?”

“How could it not be? But I just learned to give up. Just because I want it doesn’t mean I can get everything I want, or if I want to get something, I have to pay a corresponding price for it. “If you can’t pay that kind of price, then you have no choice but to give up.”

Those who finally understood the gist of the question let out a shaky breath.

“We were only together briefly in the South. “We broke up when I returned home and had no plans to meet again.”

However, through a coincidence, we met like this, and the adventurer’s good will reconnected us. The girl finally made an expression of understanding at Berserk’s answer.

“Then I’d like to ask you a similar question.”

On the other hand, the other party seems to have gained new questions from her answer. An adventurer came to talk to her.

“What exactly are you two related to?”

“This is the first time I’ve seen him since I came back to my hometown. “With your hunter’s skills, you helped me find my sister’s remains.”

“Oh... your skills seem to be excellent. “You’re still young.”

“It’s not that great.”

The girl blushed at the compliment from the interjecting Deathbringer. “I almost got kicked out because I didn’t have any talent.” It was the opposing camp that blushed at the next words.

“...You must have had a lot of trouble.”

“But I wasn’t really expelled. It was manageable. As a result, I met Daejeon Temple like this.”

“Yes...”

The adventurer seemed to not agree at all, but did not go out of his way to deny it. The short, drawn-out voice tapped his thigh with his finger.

“Then is the fact that these two people came here as a result of your guidance? “To track the body’s... location?”

“yes? “Oh, that’s not it.”

“then?”

How did you two get here?

A question was asked that should have been asked a long time ago but was postponed for various reasons. Berserk’s eyes narrowed.

“I met the Great Master.”

“...Daemyeongjang? “Are you talking about Meister Nari?”

“okay.”

“Did he... give you our location?”

“No way.”

Perhaps because the answer coming from Berserk’s mouth was unexpected, Deathbringer intervened anew. Her lips were twisted.

“He even told you that you were headed to the end of the world, but he did not tell you your exact purpose. It was probably an action taken into consideration. “Before I got all the answers from him, I confessed to him that I was looking for my sister’s remains.”

“...!”

“I only found out thanks to the beggars next to him. “You are collecting people’s bodies and transporting them to the end of the world.”

“...those idiots. Oh, that doesn’t mean it’s the fighter’s fault. It’s just... ah.”

“I understand. never mind.”

Thanks to those idiots’ mistake of speech, Berserk recovered the sisters’ remains, but it is true that from the Deathbringer’s point of view, it was just an insult.

Berserk generously handed over his horse. As long as the result was like this, there was no reason why I couldn’t get over it.

“...Did you kill him by any chance?”

The adventurer’s question was also accepted without offense in a similar vein. Well, you can ask him. She answered angrily.

“no. “I saved you because I saw you.”

“...Thank you so much for that.”

The adventurer looked somewhat relieved.

“Anyway... I knew it was unlikely. I also knew that there was no guarantee that I would be able to catch up in time. “Even so, I couldn’t bear to watch... so I decided to chase after you.”

“...is it.”

“Fortunately, there was no way. “The glacial ordeal could allow you to skip space if you used it well.”

“Skip space?”

Oh, should I explain that first?

In response to the adventurer’s question, Berserk explained some of the characteristics of the glacial ordeal. The tradition of not talking to outsiders was a good thing. Those traditions have never helped her.

“...So that’s why they were able to follow us.”

“okay.”

“Still, it was dangerous. “If only luck had been on your side and you were in trouble...”

On the contrary, breaking tradition filled her with genuine concern. The adventurer’s furrowed brow clouded his words for a moment, and then he turned his gaze to the girl.

“Wait, maybe...?”

“For your information, I have never brought a girl. “He just followed along on his own.”

“Hehe... I didn’t think I would succeed either.”

“...I’m going to turn.”

The adventurer pointed his finger at his face. It wasn’t really what he wanted to say.
