Episode 227 Interference (1)
Stepping on small pieces of ice and arriving at the beach, the receptionist and Iriel collapse and catch their breath.
“Hehehehe…”
“Is it also the arrival… Heo-eok…”
The feeling of stepping on the land after passing through the crazy sea was indescribable.
Is this how it feels to walk in heaven?
Even though I just collapsed on the sand, I burst out laughing.
Seeing them burst into laughter like crazy, the vigilance of the guards grew.
They pulled out their swords from their waists with neat movements and asked with an intimidating spirit.
“Where do you guys come from? No, how did you come here?”
“I came by boat, and from there I ran.”
“Are you asking me to believe that now?”
Even if you don’t believe it, there’s nothing you can do about it.
When Ray shrugged, he murmured briefly.
“We can’t send intruders under you. It is dealt with here.”
Saying that, one of them draws out his sword, but one hesitates in the back.
The one remaining guard also looked at him with a puzzled expression.
“It’s strange. It’s strange.”
“What else is strange?”
“Doesn’t that smell similar to ours?”
“huh?”
When I sniffed it, it smelled quite familiar.
“…You mean you’re of the same class?”
“I guess so.”
“What should I have said earlier?”
As if they were talking about something, they put the sword back in and came close to Ray.
“I almost cut myself off. It’s obviously a face you’ve never seen before. Hahaha, please forgive me for this mistake.”
“doesn’t care.”
“Hey, what a generous friend! Go back to Sanha.”
As one guides him with his shoulder draped over his shoulder, the other raises his sword again.
It was a completely different attitude from when he was dealing with Ray.
The cold air spits out words in a fluttering tone.
“You cannot pass. Don’t even think about closing your eyes on the land of heroes. I will throw the corpse far away into the sea.”
“What?”
Then Ray said to the man next to him.
“These are friends who came together for a reason. I would prefer not to touch it if possible.”
“These meager chaffs?”
The saintess, who is called the representative of God in the world, and the two guards who escort the saint quickly turned into rotten chaff.
Nodding his head, the man inserted his sword as if his excitement had cooled.
“There’s nothing I can’t do about it. However, if it moves even a little from there, there is no guarantee at that time. As you know, I also have my own job.”
“thank you.”
“And… let’s listen to the stories of those who came with us in Sanha.”
The man on the other side laughed awkwardly at his seemingly sharp words.
“Ha ha ha… Let’s not fight among ourselves.”
“…I was too sensitive. apologize.”
“I don’t care.”
“This is very big volleyball!”
A man with a lively atmosphere patted me on the back and guided me into the woods.
As the two disappear, the remaining man fiddles with the sword.
It seems that they are impatient to erase the beings that could cause trouble.
He sighed as he looked at Iriel’s disappearing back.
‘Come back soon. It’s like something is about to happen.’
* * *
Looking around, I tried to organize my thoughts on the lineage of heroes, but I had no choice but to stop thinking about the constant barrage of questions.
“Huh, then did you come from across the sea?”
It is a burdensome look full of curiosity.
“I used to be outside. I did some pretty crazy things to get in here.”
“It looks fine for that.”
As we talked, quite large houses began to appear one by one.
It was a house built of wood, but the seams are neat as if it was made by a skillful artisan.
‘It’s like a village.’
The streets are clean and there are many scenic spots around.
Hygiene is also very clean.
It feels well organized in many ways.
Would I have walked twenty more minutes like that?
I saw a single tree house on top of a mountain hill.
It is slightly larger than the other houses.
The man knocked on the door and knocked.
“Are you there? I have something to tell you.”
Soon after, a woman walks out, yawning.
“story? What are you talking about at this time? Are you okay?”
“You are still there. Can we talk inside?”
“Where do you want to come in? talk outside.”
At her words, the man nodded and said.
“This is my friend. I think it came from outside.”
“Outside?”
“yes. over the sea.”
“What nonsense is that? Did you fall asleep?”
The man became furious at the gaze that seemed to be looking at the pitiful thing.
“Because it’s true! Smell it if you don’t believe it.”
Ray was startled by that.
What kind of a bastard can you judge a person by their smell!
Without time to protest, the woman sniffs and smells her body.
“Oh really! It’s the same, but it smells different!”
“Okay, let’s get away from it now. It will wear out.”
“Different from your messy smell, it smells clean and refreshing.”
“I beg your pardon!”
The woman, who had been giggling, shoved his back, obliterating her laughter.
“You go back now. It’s not something you can hear from now on.”
“But…”
“Go back. This is an order from the Commander-in-Chief.”
I couldn’t resist the woman who spoke with a straight face.
He was about to say something for a moment, but then he shut his mouth and lowered his head.
“Let’s go back and see.”
Watching him go down the hill with miserable steps, the woman spoke briefly.
“It’s Sein and Ale. The two are very similar. Are you the child of the two of them?”
Despite her sharp words, Ray did not show any surprise.
“that’s right.”
“…Let’s go inside first.”
When he opened the door and pointed inside, it looked like he was going to stab himself with a hard face.
Tensioning the muscles of his whole body, he entered the house prepared for a counterattack at any time.
‘Does he have a lot of momentum?’
It is different from the men who stood guard before.
The small stream of mana flowing around them was well refined enough to prick their skin.
As soon as she entered, she locked the door and suddenly walked in from behind.
It seemed that his small hands were filled with the mana of destruction.
‘It’s difficult to get caught.’
When Ray, who ducked to avoid her, looked up at her, there stood a woman with a terrifyingly stiff face.
“Why avoid?”
Since he is reaching out with the intention of crushing people, he has no choice but to avoid it.
She blew her hand again.
The two hands drew a subtle curve and charged at the shoulder and pelvic bones.
She hurriedly pressed her elbows and bent her body diagonally, and her hands touched the air again.
“Oh oh. to avoid it! After all, you can’t cheat blood!”
“Why are you doing this to me!”
“It’s nice to see you!”
“It’s nice to see you rushing to kill a dog!”
As they spoke, the two of them went on and on for a while.
It took a long time before the two had a proper conversation.
* * *
She, Hael, frowns as she sits at the table.
From what I heard, he was an old friend of Eil and Sain.
The three of us used to play together, but from one day on, it seems we were left alone.
Hael asked as if he didn’t understand while listening to Ray’s story.
“So… I know you’re the child of Eil and Sain, who went out… but why did you come back here?”
“To get everyone out.”
“…what?”
“The world is peaceful, so we don’t have to go to the front. Isn’t that a little too much to always be here waiting just because God said so?”
The man who single-handedly removed the dangers of the continent complained that he was too much.
“So you mean to rebel against God?”
“It’s not good to hear that it’s half the year. I just want to rebel.”
“Ha ha ha ha ha. It’s fun. It’s impossible though.”
I shake my head.
“It is impossible, but let me ask you one thing. What were you planning to do by taking us out?”
The corners of the mouth are smiling, but the eyes are sunken.
Ray responded with a grin.
“Goddess Prias created a ‘lineage’ to give birth to a hero. But now you can’t be a hero even if it takes your whole life. I got rid of the last one left. In other words, you, who can no longer be heroes, have no meaning in existence to Goddess Frias anymore.”
“…so?”
The voice did not have the same strength as before.
“So let me make you a hero in a different way. The purpose of the goddess Prias is ‘peace in this world and the birth of a hero’. So, no matter what the process is, you just have to achieve the result, right?”
“…”
Even at his words, Hael’s expression did not lighten.
“That is against the rules of Sanha. It’s not something I can decide. In conclusion, we can’t go out.”
“I am very frustrated. You don’t have to be here, do you?”
“But I can’t leave this place.”
He strokes the table and speaks, but for some reason, he looks very lonely.
Ray sighed and murmured.
“Eh. This is not a bird in a cage.”
* * *
I slept at Hael’s house.
From the next day, I talked to people I met while passing by and did activities together, but I couldn’t think of a specific number.
One thing I could feel is that they live like dogs tied to a leash called discipline.
“Tsk tsk. They are people with a tight front.”
Ray, who has an open mind, clicked his tongue.
If you keep going like this, you won’t be able to achieve what you want and you have to go back.
He had no choice but to move in order to persuade him until the waterway closed.
Wherever you go, there is no place where money and fists do not work.
It would be even more so if it was a place where he worked hard to train his fists.
* * *
“I thought today’s training was crazy. I don’t think I’ll be able to stand it if I don’t drink or drink.”
“It has become as harsh as the time is the time.”
A young man approaches as they drink at the corner of the village, exchanging drinks with each other.
Even with a suspicious mask on his face.
The two young men laughed as they staggered as if drunk.
“That friend must have had a hard time waking up today too. It’s training that you won’t be able to endure if you don’t drink.”
“ha ha ha. Hey, you broke your nose! Walk carefully!”
At his words, the masked man muttered loudly in a drunken voice.
“Why was I born on an island like this! If I had been born outside, only better things would have happened! These aren’t livestock to be raised, and they have to live on an island for hundreds of years! I want to go outside at least once!”
“….”
“….”
The two young men drank again with an awkward silence.
“I wasn’t the only one thinking that. Ha ha ha…”
“It’s that hard. I just want to see what it’s like outside.”
The two licked their lips and looked at the sea.
