A NEET’s Guide to the Parallel World: Healer, the Strongest Cheat? Chapter 142: A coward's excuse

Oswald what do we do?

Sabrina seed to be asking Oswald for help, maybe she couldnt do anything on her own? On the other hand Oswald was already chanting magic. A magic circle appeared in front of him and he picked it up before rushing to those who were on the ground.

Teacher. That.. Legendary class!

Normal

Rare

Nation treasure

Legendary

Mythic

Fantasy

These are the standard classifications of equipnt and magical tools. The statue that Oswald took out seed to be of the legendary variety. This is also my first ti seeing a legendary class tool.

Well I say but the sword I got from Shawn was appraised to be of Legendary class or better. anwhile, the phantoms continued to stab at the king and his escorts arms. There was no blood and the cuts were only visible to .

Stop!

All of a sudden the leader of the phantoms gave the signal to stop even though I hadnt given any instructions.

Master? We hurt them a lot, if we keep going these guys might die. What do we do?

Apparently the phantoms could asure how much a person could take ntally before death.

You cant do the legs?

I figured Id ask just in case.

I dont think they can take anymore pain, theyll go into shock and die.

It seems these guys were at their limit.

Ok, Well thats okay then.

When I said that the phantoms smiled and disappeared. I felt a bit lonely after that even though Id never seen them before. Were they there when I killed Aries too? At that mont Oswald applied magic power to the statue causing it to emit green light. It was probably healing magic since these guys cant use that kind of magic without using tools.

The people who make fun of healers cant even treat themselves when it cos down to it. They need magic tools to help them, whos weak now? While I was thinking this a dical team arrived before I knew it carrying a stretcher. Where did they co from? Did one of the people around report it? Well, I guess it doesnt matter.

Ihihihihihihihih, Master? What do we do with these guys? Should we kill them?

The old woman paused and asked , honestly I felt like I should kill them. Nobody here would know if I did kill them, they couldnt testify against because I didnt even touch the people on the ground. However, I feel like it would be a hassle to kill them.

Its fine, You can return now.

Call again ok? Ihihihihihi.

The two old won disappeared after that while the dical team was healing the people on the ground. It seems like it will take a while for them to finish as the quality of their healing isnt as good as mine.

Take them to the infirmary imdiately.

The expressions on Sabrinas and Oswalds expressions changed as they left with the dical team. I felt like Oswald was staring at for a mont but I didnt care. They can glare at all they want, but they will probably cause trouble for by calling to their offices later. How annoying.

Nem, Its ok now.

Nem may be strong but she is still small after all.

Nem, can you let go of for now?

Okay.

You too as well ok? And when Im in my match make sure you stay where I can see you.

Just in case. These three are the only ones on my side now so I will do whatever it takes to protect them. I have magic now, the strongest magic and I know how to use it.

Nito.. They

I still want them to die, my opinion hasnt changed on that matter.

Toa didnt seem to be convinced but Ive already decided. Next to her Sufilia looked as though she wanted to say sothing.

Nito!

After that Francesca and Dolly rushed over.

What happened? Wasnt that the king of Utopiya and the king of Pascantin?

Why does she seem to know everything?

Thats what it looked like huh?

Uh, yeah. So did sothing happen between you and them, Nito?

Francesca seed to have guess the details. No, I guess considering how things look Im the obvious first suspect.

It was just a misunderstanding. What happened with them though? Why are you here?

I tried to divert attention from by asking them sothing. Francesca seed to suddenly rember sothing as she replied.

We saw Nems match. We wanted to know if we could post it in Magical communication next week!

Theyre the sa as ever.

It was a splendid match. Not taking into account you Nito, It is clear that Nem is quite strong on her own.

Dolly seed to be very impressed.

I dont mind. But can you wait for a bit? Nem is a bit tired now so I want to let her rest a while before giving you the final go ahead.

I want to ask Nem first. Nems expression seed a little dark as well.

I see. I understand.

Francesca was disappointed but seed to understand.

Im sorry.

Its not a problem. It was rude to co as soon as the match was finished. I can see that you are in a hurry. I will talk to you again tomorrow.

I apologised again and returned a friendly smile.

Fancesca seed to have so idea about what was going on but she didnt ask. I bowed quickly and left.

They suspect .

What are you going to do?

Toa asked anxiously.

Nothing? They may suspect but they dont have any proof. Even if the two kings regain consciousness it wouldnt help. Unless they could sohow recognize that I used magic, However there was no magic circle.

I see.

Even though I reassured her Toa didnt seem to be satisfied. She seed to be worried about sothing else.

Are you worried about that stupid king?

Toa then asked a different question.

Are you really going to kill them? I dont want you to kill them!

Yeah, Im going to kill them.

But thats not the point right now. I dont want to be suspected by the two principals, I hate being monitored. After they recover Im sure we will hear from them so it depends on the result of that.

I think it would be better to kill them quickly.

Sufilia had an unpleasant look on her face.

Sufilia.

Toa? Please dont bother lord Nito with this anymore. Hes saying this because hes worried about what youll say. You understand that right?

Personally I dont think its necessary to hesitate to kill soone who is this troubleso. But I understand Toas Ideas and morals so I know your thoughts on the matter. Like I said before though humans are selfish creatures. Those two kings are atypical example, my father was the sa way. They treat lives, especially those of beastn like garbage. You cant imagine how many beastn have been humiliated and then murdered just because they were alive.

Sufilia had no sympathy in this situation.

Lives will be saved by those two dying.

I knowbut

I know that Toa just doesnt want to kill. But that just isnt possible.

You had Sierra before but now shes not here. So now you feel like you have to be the one to say those things right?

I know how she feels, she just wants to be a good person.

But, being a hero is just a pretense.

It cant be helped.

Im not a hero. The people around just called that based off their mood at the ti. There was an attack at the ti and I stopped it to protect you and Sierra. They just wanted soone to be hero and began calling that without permission, it was selfish of them.

Nito?.

I hate them calling that. After all what if I as incompetent? Theres sothing wrong with it, not everyone can be a hero.

Toa?.

Hmm?

Im a cowardly human.

Huh?

Humans are cowardly creatures, even . I dont know if its because we are weaker than other races or what. But humans oppress others out of fear of being oppressed themselves. Im the sa.

Nito, Youre not like that!

Im the sa!

I am human, Im rotten.

Thats why I wont be a hero.

..

What does Toa think? Is she going to be disillusioned or is she going to accept ?

A hero is strong right? Im different, its not . It was nice in the beginning but now I just feel annoyed. I despised it in my heart, Im just the bi-product of so ugly desire of those who wanted to be saved.

I think thats fine. Heros are just convenient for the weak. But for the person who gets the title its just inconvenient, I dont think its wrong to think that way.

Sufilia seed to agree with . The problem is Toa. What is she going to think now that shes heard this. Does she want to be a hero?

YeahI I guess im asking too much of you huh?

Thats not what Im saying.

Its fine. Its okay for you three to ask things of but what I can do is limited, thats all Im saying.

The area around us suddenly beca noisy again, why was a crowd gathering? I still have sothing I wanted to say.

Shall we go and get ready for the banquet now?

We should leave here before sothing happens again or another king cos. There are too many enemies as it is and it would get bad if I started dropping bodies.

Toa? I want you to just be yourself. And Ill be myself. I think thats for the best.

Toas expression seed worse than in the beginning. I understand that you dont want to kill if I dont have to though. I can tell the way you feel when you look into my eyes.

Toa..

Im still going to kill. I dont want them polluting my world so Im going to kill them. I have no regrets.
