◈ 357. [Side Story] Sin born in the world (3)
Present.
District 8 of the Lake Kingdom. [Warzone].
《Kreuk… … Krukreuk… … .]
The Orc Emperor Daimak was kneeling on the ground with spears stuck all over his body, and the Orc army he had brought was annihilated.
Conversely, Carly-Alexandre was fine. Before he knew it, his bodyguards were gathering around him.
10 Goblin Amir.
2500 Goblin Janissaries.
The elite guard, who had been with the Goblin God King even before he was alive, succeeded in stopping the Orc Emperor’s surprise attack.
Although three of the Amirs were killed and five hundred of the Janissaries suffered heavy casualties, in the end the Goblin Legion emerged victorious.
“I sent the rest of the troops, but I’m not stupid, and I’m sure I sent all my limbs?”
Dymak breathed heavily, and Carly-Alexandre said calmly.
“The reason I decided to set up my base in this facility was because the underground space was wide enough to hide troops. You walked right into the place where my men wait with their eyes open.”
“Kreuk… Pretending to the end… … .]
No- In fact, Daimak knew.
The Goblin Corps expected that only the main force had left and the Royal Guard might remain here.
He knew it. Because Suman’s main unit was gone, he considered it the greatest opportunity.
But the reality was defeat.
“Anyway, I can’t beat the numbers… Damn goblins… … .》
It wasn’t just numbers.
The Goblin God King and Amir Janissaries moved in close coordination to the point where the number of thousands was unbelievable. like one body.
Dymark had to concede. That they are stronger than themselves and their armies.
Daimark chuckled, spitting out the blood in his mouth.
“Well, it’s better to fight coolly and die. Rather than living under mold like you.”
“Surrender even now, Dymark. Then I will let the remaining four legions survive, even as slaves.”
“You are like dogs chasing after a carriage.”
Daimak raised his tusks and sneered.
“I just fight to kill and burn according to my instincts. Until the last piece to kill and burn to the end of the world disappears.”
《… .]
《You guys who fight just to kill without any purpose, need, or pride… … Truly a monster.]
Daimak roared and rose from his seat.
《To continue living as your slaves, it is better for all of my troops to die today-!》 The
Orc Emperor gathered his final strength and swung his steel-like fist.
Fufufufu-!
couldn’t reach
Dozens of spears fired by the Janissaries pierced Daimak’s entire body.
Kali-Alexandre’s scimitar was slammed into Daimak’s throat, who was violently spitting out green congestion.
Tuhak!
With a dull sound, Daimak’s thick neck was cut cleanly.
《… .]
Carly-Alexandre, who had been standing still and looking down at the corpse of the Orc Emperor, gave a low command.
《Return some of the corps dispatched to attack the base of the Orc corps. Don’t leave even one alive.”
The Amirs and Janissaries, who bowed their heads, rushed out of the area.
Then an Amir approached Kali-Alexandr and opened his mouth.
《Kirik Kali-Alexandre the Great. Although the damage to the guards is also avoided. If the orc army is missing like this… … .”
“… Are you saying that the power to stop the ‘nameless’ is lacking?]
Unknown.
A watchman of the Lake Kingdom, stopping the Nightmare Corps from invading Inse.
Originally, the Orc Corps was supposed to be in charge of her, but as the situation progressed, it became difficult to ask for the Orc Corps’ help.
“I can’t help it. Our legion’s regular soldiers won’t even be able to hold her back… … .”
Carly-Alexandre let out a weary breath.
《… I have no choice but to fight her.”
Carly-Alexandre did not know.
The Daimak Rebellion resulted in the absence of an unknown dedicated force and the recruitment of troops to fill the vacuum.
What kind of butterfly effect will all of this have in the future and how it will affect this war?
***
A week left until the start of the next defense in the morning.
Tweet.
Lily slowly opened her eyes at the sound of birds chirping in the distance.
“Um… .”
It was morning. Sunlight filtered through the cracks in the curtains and dripped onto the bed. The subtle scent of wood and soft air… … .
Lily stared up at the ceiling and blinked blankly.
‘what?’
The shape of the ceiling is unfamiliar.
No, it’s not just the ceiling. The feel of the pillow, the texture of the blanket, and even the fragrance in the air. Everything was different from the bedroom in the alchemy workshop he used to live in.
“Where else is this… Oh, it’s the head.”
Lily, who was about to get up, put her hand on her throbbing forehead.
It was a hangover. Come to think of it, I think I drank too much last night… … .
‘Who were you drinking with? Oh, it was God Hand… … .’
Luckily, I got some sunflower mead and drank it together at the shadow unit’s quarters. I remember giving and receiving in a good atmosphere.
‘and… ?’
Lily, who was looking around with her head still not working properly, turned her gaze to the side and said
“… ?!”
found there.
A man with light green hair sleeping under a blanket in the seat next to him – God Hand.
The side of his face as he breathed in and out with difficulty was lovely… … No, that’s not the problem now!
It was then. The flinching God Hand slowly opened its eyes.
Their eyes met.
Lily blushed in embarrassment, but God Hand opened her eyes and smiled softly.
God Hand, raising his upper body, reached out with his prosthetic hand and brushed Lily’s disheveled bangs aside. and whispered
“Did you sleep well, Lily?”
“… .”
“yesterday… It was good.”
I can’t stand it any longer.
Lily shouted with all her might.
“Kiyaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa?!”
… She’s not ready to accept reality yet.
***
“I did… !”
An annex attached to the manor house. The shadow unit’s quarters.
Dressed hastily and sat down at the dining table, Lily shivered as she covered her face with both hands.
“I did it, I… !”
Only now, the memory of last night came to my mind.
I was in a good mood after drinking. Lily was hoping that today’s progress would go to the next level of holding hands.
The two of them almost kissed in the past, but Ash, who was passing by, got caught and yelled at him, and God Hand was intimidated, so he wasn’t making progress beyond holding hands.
However, God Hand still laughed and liked it even when they held hands, and in the end, Lily, who was angry, kissed God Hand first… … .
‘I did… … I never thought that the progress would go out all at once after that… … .’
She shuddered in shock, but to be honest, she did the seduction first… … . Although I borrowed the power of drunkenness… … .
It was then. God Hand approached from the other side holding two cups.
“Lily are you okay? Have some honey here.”
“ah… thank you.”
The headache subsided a little when I swallowed the warm honey water. Lily, who was drinking honey water, glanced at God Hand.
God Hand was looking at Lily with eyes dripping with real honey. Lily’s face flushed, and she turned her head to the side.
I’m embarrassed! The situation itself!
“You know, Lily?”
Then God Hand opened his mouth. Embarrassed, Lily picked up any words.
“Uh hmm yes? what what Oh, do you have a mole on your side? Don’t worry, I won’t tell anyone.”
“Not like dots… And if you put it like that, Lily also has a dot on her back… … .”
Kheum with a red face! God Hand took a deep breath and shyly let out.
“Elf… That you will be with the person who first gave you genuine love for the rest of your life.”
God Hand reached out his prosthetic arm and gently grabbed Lily’s hand.
“now I… It’s only you for the rest of your life.”
“… ?!”
“Please take good care of me in the future?”
shiver.
Honey dripped from Lily’s mouth and flowed back into the cup.
“… yes?”
No no, forever? What do you mean?
God Hand kindly explained to Lily, who did not understand well.
Elves only have one mate for a lifetime, so they love carefully. Instead, once you love, you dedicate everything for that person.
So in short… … .
“… Should we get married?”
“What kind of story is that?”
“… .”
God Hand continued talking in front of Lily, who was absent-minded.
“I wish I had two or three children. I’d rather have a daughter who looks like you… … What do you name it? It should be built in advance… … .”
God Hand twisted his body while muttering. Lily, who had been watching God Hand for a while, slowly opened her mouth.
“God Hand.”
“yes?”
“I’m really sorry.”
Lily said just fine.
“Marriage is impossible.”
Kwakwang-
As if hearing that, God Hand’s face hardened in shock.
“yes yes? why? It’s only natural that if you love, you should get married!”
“no… Not necessarily. Love and marriage are different… … .”
“Besides, Lily took me to the beginning! Are you saying that you will abandon me just for fun?!”
“You’re saying that! I like you! But it’s love feelings, marriage is a bit far away!”
“World tree, my God! After all, humans are promiscuous!”
no. This is also the first time I’ve been dating a man properly. I also hear that it is promiscuous because I live there.
Lily managed to clear her confused mind and calmly spoke to God Hand.
“God Hand. You are an elf and I am a human.”
“So?”
“You may still be young and handsome after 50 years, but I am not. I will become an old, shrunken grandmother.”
“You will still be beautiful. I will still love you.”
… I almost fell for the comment.
God Hand put a pursuing blow on Lily, who was staggering after being hit by a straight hit.
“Even if you die and only the grave remains, I will keep that grave and remember you for the rest of my life. That’s how elves love their companions. And I want to make you my life partner.”
God Hand’s prosthetic arm gently caressed Lily’s hand.
‘Whoa! Hold on, Lily! You are the senior wizard of the monster front! No matter how strong the enemy is right in front of you, be alert!’
Lily, who managed to hold on to her consciousness that was about to fly away, let out a stern voice.
“Okay. Let’s say we got married. Then you will have a child, right?”
“yes. It will be cute just like you.”
God Hand smiled as if he was happy just imagining it. Lily shook her head slightly.
“Since you are an elf and I am a human, that child must be a half-elf. You know how half-elves are treated in this world, right?”
“… .”
“They go through worse things than the thousand elves suffered. I don’t want to see my children discriminated against from birth because of the blood they inherited from their parents.”
In this world where heterogeneous people are persecuted. Mixed races were further discriminated against.
Not only were they discriminated against by humans, but they were not treated as equals even by other people.
Neither a human nor a heterogeneous race, wandering around. In this world, mixed blood was such an existence.
“I like you, God Hand.”
Lily tried to make her voice as warm as possible to God Hand, who was speechless and kept her mouth shut.
“But dating and marriage are different things. Marriage… … It’s reality. Love feelings alone can’t solve… … .”
“… You don’t know until you bump into it.”
“There are pains that you can know before you even touch them.”
Lily pressed her hand against her immobile leg.
“God Hand. This world doesn’t take ‘different’ lightly.”
Simply riding around in a wheelchair would sting me with glares that I hadn’t received before.
It’s like this just because a human being has acquired an acquired disability, much less the children between the two who will be born of mixed blood… … .
“If I live with you, I will be happy. But our children will be unhappy.”
“… .”
“I like you. really. This is sincere. but… Marrying you is another matter.”
God Hand slowly lowered his head. Lily looked at such a lover with pitiful eyes.
It was then.
“… Sorry for the serious atmosphere.”
Knock
knocking sound was heard from the entrance of the annex.
When the two freaked out, none other than Ash stood there leaning against the door.
Scratching the back of his head shyly, Ash spat out like an excuse.
“I’ve been there since before, so I didn’t notice. I didn’t mind being still, so I just tried to appeal to my presence.”
