Beat the Boss Mob chapter 18

18 – Warriors never change

‘The Battle Priests. Combat priesthood. Battle Priests….’

After breaking up with Edmund, he was stuck in a corner of the training ground.

I diligently dig through the fragments of my memory in an attempt to recall something.

No matter how hard I try, biting my lip and holding onto his hair,

“f*ck….”

It’s blurry. Damn, it’s been too long since we all broke up.

I am so annoyed by this vaguely vague situation that seems to come to mind.

Although accepting the reality, I clearly wrote down the parts to remember.

Was the 100 years a problem, or was oblivion unavoidable?

‘There must be something.’

Yes, otherwise there is no way Enlil will be pushed back.

Those who spoke to Chief Instructor Edmund are directly involved in the activities of the Hero Academy.

It is clear that they are excellent not only in their social position but also in their military strength.

To the extent that those people expect him, he is a very outstanding person.

If that’s really the case, who should Leone choose and focus on?

Enlil? Or a newcomer from the battle priests?

It would be great if I could hold both of them, but right now it’s difficult even with just one.

The words are training instructors, but in reality, look at the current situation where we are focusing on Enlil alone.

No one knows how long it will take.

Of course, really, this grit can teach both.

You will suffer enough to break your head, but you will have to endure it.

The problem is that the top officials also want a picture that focuses on one side.

To them, Enlil seemed to be seen as a warrior who had already reached his peak.

Since I can’t go up any further, it seems that he is thinking of finding another candidate for the hero.

‘If you are a person who knows nothing, yes. I can think of it that way.’

You can’t imagine that the owner of the tower secretly came out and taught Enlil.

All you can see is that Enlil failed nine times.

It can be said that as a survivor, he proved his potential beyond that.

On the contrary, it also shows the limit that can no longer be crossed.

Even more so since Enlil isn’t a person who can openly say, ‘Now I can defeat the owner of the tower!’

No matter what, calling their decision like an idiot is a bit far fetched.

“Huh-uh-“

I just want to overturn everything, but I can’t, so it’s more frustrating.

Emotional control, emotion control, he muttered, and he was in the middle of adjusting his breathing.

“What are you doing?”

Raising her head slightly, she saw Enlil standing hesitantly in front of her.

It seems that he came closer after seeing Leone stuck in a corner of the training ground.

It must have looked very strange since the instructor was digging alone.

“….”

Her Lion, who had been quietly looking up at her for a moment, was ―

“I told you to keep your hands off and focus on the other candidate for the hero.”

Unbeknownst to himself, he frankly confessed the truth as it was in front of Enlil.

“… Yes?”

“Anyway, the people above seemed to think that you couldn’t do it anymore. In that case, I think it would be better to focus on the new candidate and put your hopes on it.”

After saying that, Leon secretly examined Enlil’s facial expression.

I was the only one who survived the climb to the top so far.

I am the one who came back after encountering the owner of the tower for whatever reason.

The situation where we are no longer discussing possibilities but limitations has arrived.

Because I was curious about what kind of reaction and emotions she would have.

“… Is that so.”

But Enlil’s expression clearly showed that he didn’t care much.

It was so quiet that Leon’s eyebrows twitched.

“Aren’t you angry?”

“Should I be angry?”

“It’s me. It’s because the hardships you’ve been through so far have been dismissed as limits.”

“Wouldn’t it have been a reasonable choice for them? Rather than a hero who has failed nine times, I would rather focus properly on a candidate who seems to be able to do something.”

If that candidate fails anyway, wouldn’t he have no choice but to trust himself again?

Seeing Enlil answering in such a calm tone, Leon lost her words.

“And you’re not telling me to give up, are you? It’s not like I’m no longer a hero, or I can’t believe it anymore, unfortunately, but this time I’m going to put my hopes on the other side.”

“Hey. It seems to me that the very thing is telling you to give up, you are not a hero. It feels like this.”

“This is an overinterpretation. They must have been deeply troubled.”

Leone, who had heard that far, waved her hand as if it had been done.

Why are you so positive? Everyone just accepts it so innocently.

It’s not such an easy world. It’s not that people aren’t that nice.

If it were me, I’d be furious and shout out to you guys to give it a try.

Leon, who had been thinking about it several times, sighed once more.

“So, you are fine. About this situation.”

“I am a little upset. But it’s okay. I will continue preparing as it is, without stopping. Well, if you need help from the instructor, can you make time to see me?”

That’s not wrong. Maybe that’s what I said above.

It’s not that I’m ignoring the hero named Enlil itself, but she wants me to focus more on other candidates.

Is she enough now?

But from Rion’s point of view, she had never even considered an option other than ‘Enlil’.

He never strayed, didn’t despair or gave up, and stood firm.

From noble mtl dot com

Because he was the only hero who showed that he still had hope.

I was more angry and annoyed than Enlil, who was involved in this situation.

“It’s really good. So, Instructor, please take a lot of care of that new candidate.”

“….”

“I will prepare diligently as I am, so next time I will definitely destroy the tower. If there is a blockage, I will go to the instructor right away, so don’t worry!”

I said I would stop going now, and tell you to leave your seat and get up.

Having said that, Enlil turned her body and disappeared beyond her training ground.

“….”

Rion, who was staring blankly at the back, let out a blank laugh.

It doesn’t look like he’s really upset. It seems that nothing is wrong, let alone angry.

If she had been in that situation, he would have chased after her right away and said what he meant.

‘Is a warrior that understanding and considerate? There’s nothing wrong with just his personality. Munchkin wasn’t even up to that level. It’s not a scam… Wait for a sec.’

Scammer. Scammer. Leon muttered the word in his mind.

Then she suddenly exclaimed, “Ah!” And then jumped up from her seat.

“Scammer!”

I finally remembered. In faded memories, I finally found a clue.

It reminds me of the words that introduced the characters of the next warrior from a long time ago.

Details were not disclosed, but I heard the sound of a scammer from the specs and skill structure.

In addition, some settings were also leaked.

And the information that Rion himself was looking for here.

No one went to the tower after being selected as a warrior by the combat priests.

I heard that they all wanted to be active in the priesthood.

‘Battle Priests. The opponent the guys above are expecting as much as Enlil. And a scammer.’

It is only when everything fits together that a rough picture is drawn.

I could understand why the top heads would attach themselves to the candidate from the priesthood.

Because I have that kind of skill. A promising tree recognizes the cotyledon first, because you can see it.

If this is the case, of course there will be conflict.

Do you keep pushing Enlil, who has been proven so far, to put him in front again?

Or are you trying to nurture a new, unverified candidate?

Because the former has trust in Enlil so far.

The latter is because it was considered possible after examining fragments of memory.

‘I haven’t taught Enlil much yet. It had only been a month. She gave up on her and switched to that other candidate for the champion, if only for a moment, or else she might come back.’

In a way, that may be the most reasonable choice.

There is not much time left. The curse entangled in the tower is not a myth, but a reality.

A few years at the most. If the tower does not collapse within it, the world will collapse.

Leon himself will be sitting alone in that damn place forever.

So, instead of one, attack them in turns.

If both are good, one of them will succeed someday.

It will be more likely than pushing only one.

“….”

Contemplating something, Leon bit his lip as if he had made up his mind.

Then I moved to Chief Instructor Edmund’s office.

*

It was the same gait as usual when I left the training ground.

But as the distance grew farther and farther, Enlil involuntarily began to run.

Tadadak―

“I told you to take your hands off it and focus on the other candidate.”

Those words keep ringing in his head, in the middle of his heart.

It’s only been a little over a month now.

It is true that I received help, but it was only the basic of the basics.

It’s unfortunate, but there’s absolutely no reason to put on lingering feelings.

Yes. So it shouldn’t be anything…

‘Why is this… My heart is stuffy… ?’

It was unbearably cramped. So I ran and ran and ran.

Even so, it was not easily resolved. It seems that the core has become more firmly.

As I said to Leon, nothing has changed.

You can still meet him, and get help if you get stuck.

He wasn’t denied the fact that he was a hero, so why?

‘Why? Why!’

Enlil did not stop her steps for a very long time.

I wish I could forget this loss because my body is in pain.

While forcibly erasing the clouding of her eyes.

And a few days later—

“… Yes?”

Enlil asked back in a blank tone as if he couldn’t believe it.

Then Chief Instructor Edmund scratched his head and spoke again.

“Miss Enlil’s exclusive instructor will continue to be Instructor Leon.”
