51 side braver 5 (second part)

After bidding farewell to Silver Flash and leaving the mercenary union, we boarded a carriage back to the royal castle. Although it has calmed down somewhat, the enthusiasm for the brave is still not cool. If you face poorly, people can gather and cannot move.

However, if you are in a carriage of royal carriages that you do not normally see, you will notice a lot if you have a good guess. Aina said it was about the spirit of service.

Hey, Rayva.

How are you, Master?

I spoke to the Holy Sword (Leva) in my heart.

The Holy Sword is a weapon of will that no one knows but myself. Even Eina has a secret.

At first, I was just trying to tell Eina, but Rayva kept me quiet. Asked why she didn't answer, but she was smart. It is not hard to imagine that there is a good reason. I didn't go any further. [M]

Besides, it was convenient to have a conversation with Rayva in your heart when you had a little secret consultation.

(You heard what I said earlier.)

Yes, of course.

(If so, can you tell me? What is the difference between "hero" and "hero"?)

I didn't even know if there was a difference between the two in the first place. However, there seems to be a vague but clear difference.

It seemed like the difference between me and Yukina.

"A brave man is one who carries the wishes of his people and saves the world. In this day and age, it's you."

I know that. I am here to save the world from the threat of the incoming demon king. The mark engraved on my right hand and the sword Rayva, who recognized me as the Lord, bear witness to this.

What about heroes?

Heroes like the ones in the story fight bravely and courageously against imminent threats like the brave and save the world. Of course, there will be footprints because of the creation, but in that regard, the legend of the brave will also be similar.

"... heroes do (...) save the world. But it's results-based and limited to what's commonly communicated."

(Inclusive way of saying it)

"... the essence of heroes is a strong 'desire'."

My desire... is that what I am?

This alone convinced me of my wonder.

Yukina basically doesn't follow very much what people say. If you decide it's necessary for you, you'll do exactly what you want, but if you don't like it, you can't stand it. That's what he says.

If I want to fulfill my wish, I will dye my hands in all industries. Ultimately, based on its inexorable driving force, it "transforms" the world. That's "Hero."

A "brave man" who accepts people's wishes and saves the world.

A "hero" who transforms the world with his own wishes.

I see. It looks similar, but there's something else at its root.

"Therefore, there can be no such person as" hero ". Only the brave master can save the world, and the proof of that has never appeared on the stage of history, such as heroes, in the era when brave men appeared before me."

Rayva, who has defeated the Demon King many times with many brave men up to this point, is probably right.

The woman named Silver Flash fell short of expectations. It seems that my arm stands there, but I can't believe I'm calling my master a hero or something... "

(This is the first time you've been so spicy.)

Naturally. Because it is a hero or something that should be spit on.... who was chosen by such a vulgar and vulgar man. "

(Leva?)

I didn't hear well around the end, but I knew she was very hostile to Heroes. It may have been a topic that should not be touched upon much. I heard an interesting story, but let's stop it.

After I had finished my secret discussion with the Holy Sword (Rayva), I turned to Aina, who was sitting face-to-face.

She also had that (...) look on her face.

I look out the window, but I know that Aina is not there looking. A face that contains sadness that tightens the chest of a person who is not here in his heart.

When she looks at her face, she puts her hands on her chest for a while.

Recently, she realized that she was doing the trick by putting her finger on the "pendant" that she was raising from her neck.

─ ─ ─ ─ How are you, brave man? "

"Ah, no.... I'm sorry about Silver Flash."

She usually asked me if I was right for her. [M] On the contrary, I panicked and shook an unobtrusive story. [M]

"Sure, silver flash arms and experience were a waste of time. However, we cannot force you to accompany us on a journey of demon king crusade, as long as you have already decided. If you do that, you will always make fatal mistakes wherever you bring them in. Let's switch our minds and find the next talent."

Eina's reaction is natural. Words are free.

I bet you were really unconscious with that face.

"... you know, Eina. May I ask you something?"

"I wonder what... could it have been you?

Well, yes.

I got a little embarrassed and scratched my cheek to make a fool of myself before asking. [M]

"Actually... it's Eina's pendant."

With all due respect... royalty like Eina seemed disproportionate to me. Making it would be fashionable, but it looks like it could be bought by the general public.

Of course I didn't, but Eina's reaction to my pendant was remarkable.

He took a small breath and then lowered his eyes and grasped the pendant on his chest with a gentle gesture.

The behavior alone showed how much she cared about the pendant.

"... is it important?

"Yes... it's my treasure"

That's what Eina said. She was smiling.

Now it was my turn to breathe. [M]

Eina's smile is the same as that of the silver flash.

That soft smile when you hold someone important in your heart.

I still have no one to say yes to. [M] But I was sure. The pendant came from someone dear to Eina.

(... no way.)

The person who sent Eina the pendant slightly overstepped the corner of her head.

Everything is too ridiculous.

Isn't that the kind of "hero" that comes out of the story?

I immediately shook my head to deny it.
