134 – EP.28 Rasvir-3
After returning from the dragon’s tomb, I immediately tried to gather my companions in one place.
Because I had to tell them what I had heard so far.
However, even before the convocation, all of the companion gods, including Hresbelg, were huddled together in the living room.
She was a bit taken aback, but when she saw Yata grinning at me, she realized that she had prepared it in advance.
Crows’ kindness cannot be ignored. I stood in front of them and told them all the stories that had happened in the dragon’s tomb.
While there are Shinsoo who are surprised by the fact that they hear it for the first time, there are also Shinsoo who respond that they are not very interested, and there are Shinsoo who already knew about it.
Each of them had different reactions, but they showed the same reaction in only one place.
“No!”, “No… !”, “No.”, “No, do you really have to suffer?”, “Hoeng… ?”
The divine beasts who had been quietly listening to the story jumped up from their seats when they heard that I had to enter Rasbir by myself.
Everyone except for Tia, who doesn’t know anything, and Yata, who sticks to silence, have opposed the union.
Honestly, I expected this kind of reaction from them.
“Seobang! Decline the request right away! To go to such a dangerous place alone… ? I’ll crush the snout of the dragon for making such a shameless request! So stop!”
“Right!! I’m reckless… ! You were seriously injured while fighting Do-chul alone before… !!”
“This time I have the same thoughts as the fox. I don’t know if I’m going with everyone, but I can never send the boss alone.”
“Seonju, is it because she likes her? Because I’ll make her more beautiful than that lady. Let’s stop doing dangerous things! Huh?”
Except for one person, everyone was persuading me with worried expressions.
It felt good that they cared about me this much, but it was a little embarrassing to say the opposite to the point where I couldn’t say the next word.
On the other hand, among all of her excited followers, there was only one who kept her mouth shut, so I decided to ask her for her opinion.
“What do you think of Yata?”
It’s not that I’m ignoring the opinions of the other priests, but as expected, Yata’s opinions were important.
Her vision of the future has always illuminated my path whenever needed.
Although there were many times when the road to go was thorny, there were satisfying results at the end.
I decided to respect her opinion as much as possible.
“I will respect Nanggun’s wishes. So if you want to go, I think you can go.”
The only crow with conflicting opinions.
At her words, the eyes of all her followers turned from me to her.
“You damn bird b*tch!!”, “Hey, Yata-sama?!”, “Why… ?”, “Ji, are you serious?! Are you black?”

Looks filled with astonishment, doubt, and coldness.
Even though he was receiving such emotions, Yata’s expression was very relaxed.
“Everyone, calm down. I have clear reasons for saying this.”
“Shut up! Do you intend to make the same mistake again after driving the West to death once?”
“Miho….”
“The same goes for Mr. Seo! You should have rejected such a story right on the spot! If you are in danger again like that time… !”
The past day when I tried to be with Do-cheol and actually entered the threshold of death.
I didn’t see the face of Miho who came at the right time.
But I could only vaguely imagine it.
The fox, shocked to find me dying, must have been shaking his body.
Then he would have gone mad, saying that he would do everything possible to save me.

Like what you are seeing now.
“Seonlord, I don’t want to go through that day again like Miho did. Could you please reconsider your thoughts… ?”
Cor has expressed the same opinion by gently hugging Miho’s body, which is gripped by trauma.
After seeing the wolf and the fox in pain, I couldn’t raise my voice any more.
Although the situation that her mother and daughter are facing is truly pitiful, the companions are more precious to me….
It seems appropriate for me to step back here, so I opened my mouth to tell them of my intention to give up.
However, before I could express my decision, Yata with a distorted expression gently covered my mouth with his hand and intercepted his words.
“I think you all have a big misunderstanding… !”
“Huh?”
“Just because I am, it doesn’t mean I’m unaware of dangers! I also want to hold on to Nanggun not to go! But you can’t! You can’t stop the nanggun!”
“Are you black? Why would you go so far as to let the ship owner go?”
“Because this is the next destination for Leshef, who destroyed the kingdom of Rasvir.”
“Is that really?!”
You’ve already destroyed a country and now you’re invading this place too?
It was a story that could never be passed over.
“Then, shouldn’t we intercept the Shinsoo that will invade from here?”
“Rabbit. Plague is transmitted in various ways, such as air, water, and living things. So, no matter how well we prepare our measures, even if we can defeat the divine beast, we cannot prevent the contagiousness of the plague.”
“Sure….”
“And if the plague spreads, the precious people of Nanggun will surely be in danger, so can you bear all the responsibility for it?”
“Ah… !”
Alice is unable to say anything about the crow’s theory.
I was just disassembling it with a frown on my face, so the wolf pushed the rabbit and started a little fire.
“So you’re saying that the ship owner has to shoulder all the burdens by himself? Now?”
“You are not alone. It seems that everyone hasn’t listened to the story of Nanggun, but there is a guardian dragon with powerful abilities inside. Besides, Tia is going to join Nanggun in the future and become a source of strength.”
“But Yata-sama! Tia is still… !”
“Are you still young? That’s right! Young! But you don’t know that Tia surpasses everyone in terms of pure strength, except for the eagle, right?”
“Yes, but….”
“What Tia lacks is experience, judgment, and control over her abilities. But that lack will surely be compensated for by my side. How is it? Does Tia still look lacking?”
“Oh, no…” .”
Even Cor, who was overcome with rage, eventually rolled back his tail.
There is also the fact that he couldn’t find any reason to refute Yata’s words, but he felt guilty for unknowingly ignoring Tia.
“Then I’m going to say one last thing, so listen up everyone! As a pet, it’s natural to worry about your pet! He’s a precious person, so it’s good to give him advice! It’s good to be concerned! Just don’t force it! If we truly care for our companion, we should not deny his thoughts, but think about how to help him!!”
From the first meeting until now, Yata has never shown an extremely raging emotion.
But now she was yelling at everyone in a furious voice.
Saying that she should value my opinion, Yata was getting angry, even clearly showing the veins on her face.
I was stunned by such a rare sight, but for a while, I came to my senses when I saw Yata’s gaze pointing at me.
“Nanggun.”
“Huh?”
“Now it’s our turn to ask, what do you want Nang-kun to do?”
“Are you asking my opinion?”
“That’s right, it doesn’t matter what choice Nanggun makes, so tell me comfortably. The divine beasts here, including myself, will abide by the Lord’s decision, and we intend to thoroughly support him.”
The mischief that had always been on her face was gone.
A serious and blind gaze, but still, there was one unchanging determination.
I was filled with the will to do it only for myself.
Thanks to this, I can speak comfortably while reconfirming a decision I had been reluctant to make until now.
“I… ….”
***
A night when the full moon shines brightly.
Will there be the same full moon at a place called Rasbir sitting near the window? I was thinking the same thing.
I had to go to bed early for tomorrow’s sake, but sleep didn’t come easily.
“Nanggun.”
“Yata….”
A tanned woman approaches me suffering from insomnia.
The reflection of the moonlight made her skin look even smoother.
“I had a hard time. Did you have a hard time convincing Miho?”
“It’s okay. Is that always the case? Besides, I’ve always been fighting with the fox since we first met.”
“hahahaha, that’s right too.”
“Anyway, are you ready to leave?”
“Not yet. There are only one or two things to take care of, so it wasn’t easy.”
My choice was to go.
Originally, I didn’t want to go. There is no loyalty to mother and daughter, and companion gods have strongly opposed it.
However, one fact I heard through Yata made me decide like this.
If I don’t go, the god of plague will come.
I don’t know what the state of Rasvir Kingdom is like because I haven’t seen it myself, but it’s true that it was destroyed by a single plague.
If such a bastard came to our land, it would not be destroyed, but the enormous damage could easily be imagined.
How can you stay still?
If we don’t deal with it in advance, this side will suffer someday, so it’s only natural that we should cut off the buds of misfortune in advance.
“You can do it slowly, so prepare carefully. We have plenty of time until tomorrow afternoon.”
“Yes, I will.”
“Draw~! If you’re a nanggun, you’ll take care of yourself!”
“Saying that makes me very anxious….”
“Even if you show anxiety, won’t you tell us about the future?”
“Sheesh, sorry.”
Me and Yata both burst into laughter at the same time.
The sound of our cheerful laughter flowing through the window.
If there was someone outside the window, you might be startled.
“My dear, take this.”
“Wow… !”
Yata suddenly throws something at me even after laughing hard.
It was so sudden that I was sweating, but I managed to catch it.
Something long and light wrapped in her cloth, looking at Yata to see if she could open it, she nodded her head.
When I unwrapped the tightly wrapped cloth, there was a sword sheath made of fatalite and a handle with beautiful embroidery.
I expected it to be my new weapon, but seeing it in person like this made me feel strange.
However, I haven’t seen it all yet. The main thing is the blade hidden in the sheath, but you can’t be satisfied with an appetizer.
Carefully grabbing the handle and pulling the sword out of the scabbard, a yellow and silver sword shining brightly was revealed under the moonlight.
“It’s a sword made from mixing Fatalite and Fenrir’s teeth. The rabbit’s paroo was quickly made using only Fenrir’s teeth, but the sword took some time to mix with other materials. Even so, I succeeded in making it not too late.”
“What is the function of this sword?”
“No. Unlike the previous sword, it’s an ordinary one-handed sword. But if I had to look at its function, I wonder if it could leave eternal scars on the enemy.”
“That alone is enough performance.”
A sword made from the teeth of Fenrir, which had the power to maintain the status quo.
The fact that Fenrir’s ability was maintained despite the change in form means that Yata and the maker of this sword worked hard.
“Thank you for making such a good weapon.”
“This is for my husband, of course I have to make it! More than that, don’t wield the sword recklessly, just in case. After that, if you accidentally cut yourself, even a nanggun won’t be able to do it.”
“hahahaha…. I’ll be careful.”
“That’s it.”
The time of silence has come again.
I looked at the new sword and Yata looked at the full moon and continued silence.
When will this time break?
As I was curious about it, just at that moment, Yata started talking to me.
“My dear, this is going to be a tough journey.”
“I guess so.”
“This time, it’s not just one city, it’s one country.”
“Yes, I know.”
“You will spend your days fighting, and those days may last for weeks, months, years.”
“I’m sure it might be…” ….”
“Is that okay?”
Emotions of worry and anxiety floated on Yata’s face.
Yata, who scolded everyone for believing in me when the sun was up, was now sending a more worried look than anyone else.
Despite her contradictory behavior, it was surprising that she, who should have already known her fate, was so concerned.
Even if you know what the future holds, you can’t help but feel anxious because you’re going to a place that’s out of your reach.
With that conclusion in her mind, I stepped out of her window and hugged her.
The crow has already completely eliminated the anxiety of other companion divine beasts.
Now, only Yata’s anxiety remains.
Then it’s my turn to get rid of her anxiety.
“It’s okay. I promise to return safely. Somehow, I survived and came to the side of my companions….”
“Nanggun.”
“Uh uh… ?”
“Please don’t put up a flag, if you really don’t want to be followed.”
“…… I will go and work hard.”
“Okay. That’s it!”
Yata, who had been laughing with her satisfaction, now lifted her heels like a magpie.
The warm and soft touch of her lips was enough to revive the shattered atmosphere.
Because of her
, I gently blew her strength into her yata, her arms wrapped around her waist, and hugged her even tighter.

Let’s love as much as we can’t see in the future….
“Hey, my dear!”
“Why is that?”
“My army has already raised the flag, so let’s destroy the flag as well!”
“…… Isn’t that a flag too?”
“Just don’t get pregnant tonight! …… Besides, there would be no more problems if it was a one-sided affair rather than a mating of love♡”
“Sah, save me… !”
In the end, it was just the difference between dying now or dying later.
