68 – Raising a Hero – 2
There was a reason why I wanted to make Brünnhild grow by going through such a self-made drama. Ultimately, the awakening of the warrior is essential for future developnts.
Not just to make myself more comfortable, but also to deal with the black thing that has lted into the weapon, which has sohow been declared by the devil’s mouth to be similar to a holy sword.
The devil is no longer the enemy. Since Elisiere, like the other two, was revealed to be a possessed person suffering from an infinitely repeated regression, the real enemy should not be the Demon Lord.
‘The others will definitely die.’
For example, he is a person who cooperates with the corps commanders and bastards under him.
“Huh…… Huh……. Huh…….”
Like that fat high priest who is following behind. Even though it had only been 10 minutes since he ca in, his actions and face made him look like he had been wandering around non-stop for about 12 hours.
“What about monsters?”
“I can’t see it yet. Let’s keep going.”
Brünnhild gestured as he pulled out the holy sword that had been inserted into the monster’s head.
The place we were was inside a release-type dungeon that had suddenly appeared. When the warrior who ‘coincidentally’ ca here to buy dessert and I offered to help, the lord, the Viscount, agreed, thinking it was right.
Common sense would dictate that it would be better to contact the imperial palace, explain the situation, and ask for support rather than ask for help from an academy student, but Brünnhild was a warrior chosen by the Holy Sword.
I strongly recomnded Brunhild, saying he might be stronger than him. Thanks to this, he was able to be supported as a core force without any hindrance.
It was in that context that the fat priest followed. There was no reason to refuse when the hero said that since there are an extrely large number of monsters in the discharge dungeon, a skilled priest must be present.
The fact that the Pope himself gave the star’s blessing also had a significant impact. The priests of the Starlight Church will not help the warrior who has been blessed by the stars? There was no such contradiction.
‘I had no idea it would turn out this well.’
If that guy had stayed in the temple and refused to co out, making all kinds of excuses, it wouldn’t have been easy for us to get him out.
He hated coming so much that he started talking nonsense right in front of us, saying that it would be enough if we just gave him a lot of advanced potions or added a bunch of nuns and priests to him. If I was inside the temple, I would never have co out.
‘How on earth do people like that demonstrate their divine power?’
No matter how you look at it, it doesn’t seem like there is any faith at all. Is the goddess completely indifferent to the human world? Anyway, these guys didn’t have anything good to say about them.
“Now, wait a minute…” … ! Let’s take a break…… !”
The high-ranking priest, whose breathing had been getting heavier from earlier, finally fell to the floor. At this point, I thought I would slowly reach my limit.
“It’s only been 10 minutes, already? And, we did all the fighting, so why does the one who didn’t do anything get tired first?”
“Aren’t you guys walking too fast…?” … !”
“Have you ever thought that it was slow?”
Brünnhild must have felt the sa way as , sighing and stopping.
“Okay. “Let’s take a break.”
“Kuheook…… !”
The priest completely sat down on the spot, letting out a strange breath, and the nuns on both sides were busy giving him water or wiping his sweat with their sleeves. I took advantage of that opportunity to quietly whisper.
“I’m protecting that guy well. I’ll look around first to see if there are any traps. “That pig looked like it couldn’t avoid a rock rolling in from a hundred ters away.”
Brünnhild smiled slightly and nodded at my joke. I walked to a distance where I couldn’t hear anyone’s voice, used soundproofing magic to prepare for any unexpected situation, and took out the necklace.
“Is everything going well?”
As soon as I put on the necklace, I heard Elisier’s voice as if I had been waiting for it. Because of this, I was waiting for that thing to spread.
If I had co alone with Brünnhild or with another priest who was more energetic than him, I wouldn’t have been able to do sothing like this.
“That’s right. “Elisier, what about you?”
“I have also completed all preparations. Can we just deploy the monsters right before destroying the dungeon core as planned?”
“That’s right. “There is no need to try to adjust it like a timing knife, you can put it in after it is sufficiently broken.”
Of course, this release-type dungeon was created by Elisier and myself. In order to carry out a plan to provide practical combat experience to Brünnhild, who had rarely had a chance to fight against real demons so far.
I have taken away all the battle opportunities so far, so I have to give him experience points like this.
‘I will take care of that fat priest as well.’
Anyway, in the original work, he is a guy who does nothing but do trash and is dealt with by the hero. He doesn’t have to feel any guilt now that he’s even been possessed by a succubus.
Including the nuns and priests who stayed below and did the sa thing.
“But…… My dear. “I’m still not sure if I really have to do that.”
Elisier’s worried voice rang through the necklace. Just hearing his voice, I could imagine what his expression would be like right now. I opened my mouth as softly as possible.
“I heard you knew last ti?”
“I had no choice but to accept it because you pushed so hard, but I am not convinced yet. She truly does not want to hurt you. “She will get down on her knees and beg if she wants, so couldn’t she please think of another plan?”
“What other plans do you have? “Do you have any good ideas?”
“…… That is not the case. But, my dear, if you think about it a little more, it becos clear-“
“It’s not too late to try another thod after trying the original version.”
Elisier said in a still regretful voice, “That’s true… ….” ‘ She said, trailing off.
“I’m fine, Elisier. In the end, all you have to do is not die. “I heard that if I use healing magic later, everything will be cured?”
“I hate the fact that you are hurt! Why do you keep trying to hurt yourself! “Didn’t you say that last ti too?”
I guess I was crying, so my voice got louder. The ‘last ti’ here refers to the ti when Alexander bit off his finger to trap him.
I was telling him this in order to convince him that it would be a piece of cake since it was a mission he had already done before, but it only had the opposite effect as Elisiere jumped when he heard that this was the second ti.
“…… In the end, it seems like I’m the one who has to break my stubbornness.”
Elysier, who had been expressing a lot of agitated emotions for a while, let out a deep sigh and said that there was nothing she could do.
“I understand. In the end, she will have to give up. But she has sothing you should know too. “Be sure to rember, no matter what, that your operation made her very sad.”
“Okay.”
“…… I’ll stop now. “Please don’t get hurt, dear.”
Communication was cut off. She took off her necklace and put it in her coat pocket.
I think it’s natural to have that kind of reaction. He would have to attack with his own hands, which he would absolutely not want to do because it would not amount to just a slight cut, but would cause serious injury to the point where her body would be torn apart.
But it was unavoidable.
‘If I get hurt, it has to be .’
It is much better for to get hurt by a face I know than for people around to get hurt. I don’t necessarily want to take it out, but I have that weapon and recovery magic, so there’s almost no risk of dying.
After putting away the necklace and returning to its original position, Brünnhild’s face, who had been looking at the other three who were still panting, widened again. The number of monster corpses lying around increased by about five or six more.
“There were no traps. “Let’s move slowly.”
“You an already?”
“This much rest is enough, what more do you want? Are you trying to make a living here?”
He cursed with his face and helped the nun to her feet. Brunhild saw that and shook his head.
After that, we went down to the dungeon core, slaughtering monsters with overwhelming skill. Ogres, a fairly strong monster, appeared like random mobs, but they were all swept away helplessly.
“hahahaha! These are really great people! Can’t I just leave like this? From the looks of it, it looks like your skills are really outstanding, but if it weren’t for , it would just be a suitable priest—hehehe?!”
I took eternity around the neck of the priest who was still trying to beat us, trying to asure our chances of escape. The point of his knife jabbed into his neck and the guy jumped.
“Are you crazy?! “What are you doing all of a sudden?”
“The pig was talking nonsense earlier, so I didn’t know if it was a pig or a dog, so I stabbed it. “But the flesh is so thick that even a knife can’t go through it, so I think it’s a pig.”
“… ….”
Next to , Brunhild was struggling to hold back laughter. It was a look that contrasted with the blushing priest.
If he had gone with Aria instead of , the reaction would have been different. Rosaria and Priscilla said together that he was so kind that he was so frustrated that he almost exploded to death, so he must have tried to put up with it even in this situation.
But I am far from that type of person. I wouldn’t know if it was in the past, but not now that I’ve realized that there’s no coming back even if I endure it for over 10 years.
“Can I take care of it?”
Brünnhild ca up next to and asked a question in a low voice.
“I don’t do anything I can’t handle. “Except when soone other than cos in.”
“That’s good.”
Brünnhild smiled, wondering what was so good about it.
How long did it take for us to arrive at the deepest dungeon core? Not the imitation we saw at the academy, but a real core with a bunch of magic energy.
“What, why is there nothing?”
“I guess I’m just letting it all out and recharging. That’s good, let’s take care of this quickly and get out.”
Of course it was because it was designed that way, but I pretended not to know. Brunhild nodded at my words and was about to approach and swing the holy sword.
ㅡKooooo!
An unusual roar began to shake the dungeon. Brünnhild broke his core with a stiff expression on his face and ca close next to .
“Did you just hear a sound?”
“I heard. “I think there’s one guy who’s no joke.”
From Noble mtl dot com
The high priest looked very frightened and stood apart from the nuns, but he had no intention of running away, perhaps because of what we had shown him so far. They seed to believe that next to us would be the safest.
ㅡKooooo!!!!!!
Once again, a roar that shook the entire dungeon rang out, and an enormous silhouette appeared in the distance. The orange light ca closer and closer.
Soon Fla Bear appeared. The fur that covered its entire body was orange, and it shimred and shimred due to the enormous heat burning from its skin.
Everywhere it steps, it leaves footprints made of orange flas.
“…… Fla Bear? “It must be a bit tough to fight while protecting this, right?”
Brünnhild’s murmur was heard from next to him.
Fla Bear. This is a monster that was introduced in a theory lecture. Perhaps because of the proverb that bears tear people to pieces, they were equal to or even stronger than ogres.
“Back, back! Even in the back!”
“…… Back?”
Brünnhild turned his head at the priest’s almost convulsive warning and let out a laugh. This was because an Ice Bear, known as a subspecies of Fla Bear, was approaching from the passage we had co from.
His fur was light blue, and a white mist rose from near his skin. While the floor nearby was covered in frost, white breath was leaking out from between its snouts.
As a subspecies of Fla Bear, Ice Bear also possessed trendous fighting power. This was even more so in a situation where they were working together with Fla Bear like now.
“What should I do, Mira?”
“What should I do? Just take them one by one and kill them. “There’s a priest behind you anyway, right?”
“…… Mira, I think you’re like a golem when you fight. “How are you never surprised?”
Brünnhild grunted softly. I just laughed to myself.
If it’s a surprise, I can’t say yes because I’ve experienced it countless tis in the past. This is a situation where I planned it all, so it’s natural.
ㅡ!!!!!!
Fla Bear, as its na suggests, spewed out flas from its snout and rushed at him.
