I Became the Hero Who Banished the Protagonist chapter 116

116. Digging (3)

116. Digging (3)

“… It tastes like death.”

This is the second time. No, it was the number of times he was resurrected. Eugene sighed and got up from his seat. The training was much harder than Eugene thought. I thought I would only increase the number of monsters I was dealing with at one time, but I didn’t know that I would have to resurrect as soon as I was killed by the monsters in the barrier and continue training.

“Still, I think it’s worth fighting as a team.”

Cora revived in the seat next to Eugene who said that. Cora stood up, stabbing her sword into the ground, still looking competitive. Yujin looked into her eyes and let out a laugh as if it was absurd. Cora shook her head and fixed her equipment.

“What about Natalie?”

“I’m fine. It’s a bit dissatisfied, but it seems that thanks to that, I’m dealing with monsters with much more concentration than usual. I haven’t seen a proper wound yet.”

How strong is Natalie? Eugene trembled at her strength as he continued to train. I didn’t realize it, but when I went into practice, I really felt the difference.

“Maybe if you go through alone, you can pass? The professor said if the three of us couldn’t break through the forest together, it wouldn’t pass, so he must be waiting for us.”

Cora looked down at her spotless body and said. Yujin shook her head and started walking forward again. Every time his mana was about to run out, he somehow managed to recover by drinking potions, but now even the potions are all gone. The only chance left today is this one.

“How many times have we died, we?”

“This will be the sixth.”

There were times when I thought I had reached the end of the forest. At that time, without fail, a group of monsters would appear and die from somewhere. There were times when I was careless, thinking that it wouldn’t be dangerous in the beginning. At that time, an incredibly powerful monster appeared and died. When I wasn’t vigilant, I just died from exhaustion.

“Can I pass this?”

“Didn’t you see what the hero showed me? You took us through without incident.”

Eugene had no choice but to keep his mouth shut. To show them the way out of the forest, the hero first went through the forest once with them. Of course, the monsters flew with the same momentum, but the hero killed the attackers without even paying attention to them. Like raindrops blocked by an umbrella, the monsters died without being able to get closer to them within three steps. Even, the hero was not even using mana. I didn’t even have to discuss how monstrous he was.

“… That’s why he’s weird.”

“The hero passed through while protecting the three of us alone. We have no one to protect, and we have colleagues to rely on. Then I’ll have to try to get through somehow.”

Cora spoke in a voice full of fighting spirit. Eugene pretended not to be motivated, but continued on. In any case, their skills were getting better with each death.

“First of all, let’s get to where Natalie is waiting for us.”

Didn’t raise mana. It is after joining Natalie that he demonstrates his true ability. Until then, you had to break through quickly with minimal force. I couldn’t die like a scarecrow while wasting mana forever. Eugene forcibly grabbed and suppressed the mana that welled up.

“Let’s go as fast as possible. I can’t keep Natalie waiting forever.”

Eugene sped up to follow Cora. Cora is far better at detecting presence than she is. Enemies in all directions are left to Korra, and he only pays attention to the monsters attacking from behind.

“Kuh-!”

And, without even realizing it, Eugene was realizing the advantages of clearly sharing roles. The lacking part is filled by others, and the lack of others is filled by oneself. If you move organically like one body, it will be much easier than breaking through this damn forest alone.

“I’ll ask you later!”

“I know-!”

An instantaneous boost in mana output. If you manage to withstand the load on your body, the next step is fixed. The corpse of a monster that burns away. Without even time to catch his breath, Eugene looked back and fired his magic at the three white wolves Cora was blocking.

“There is no time to rest. You have to move quickly.”

The place after the battle was the most dangerous. After dozens of battles, Korra and Eugene realized that. After setting the corpse on fire, they moved quickly. After fighting with the same tactics every time they encountered them, they were eventually surrounded. I was fighting really well, but it was due to the accumulated fatigue of having to repeat this drill seven times.

“… This will be the last time.”

Eugene muttered as if he had given up. Korra next to her also put down her sword as if she had lost her will. To be precise, there was no stamina left to fight with a sword. There were about ten monsters surrounding the two. It was at that moment when I realized that I really couldn’t go any further.

“It’s slow to come.”

The voice was like a ray of light. Her hair, black as night, fluttered. And in the blink of an eye, the monsters had already been reduced by half. Eugene opened his eyes wide and called the name of the savior.

“Natalie!”

“You guys do the rest.”

After Natalie said that, she crossed her arms with a watchful eye. Cora and Eugene must have been stimulated by those eyes, and squeezed out the rest of their strength as they rearranged themselves.

“It’s not even kittens we learn to hunt!”

Eugene was so angry that he raised his mana. The time has come for what he had saved up for his meeting with Natalie to shine. Cora stepped forward, getting defensive to help Eugene. The demons threw themselves at Korra, baring their teeth.

“I can do it without your help.”

Eugene’s magic was completed very quickly. Magic to wipe out multiple monsters at once – Circle 4 fire magic, Burst has been completed. Eugene stretched out his finger to the monsters, and before long, huge explosions occurred one after another and blew the monsters out.

“aaa-!!”

The magic power that Eugene poured into bloomed. Yujin blinked her eyes as she felt her ring tighten even more. Eugene let out a long breath and locked up the mana he had saved. Cora and Eugene laughed at the vaporized traces of the monster.

“done… .”

“I don’t have time to admire. I have to go to finish my assignment.”

Natalie said coldly. Wouldn’t that be enough to give you a compliment? Well, that’s what Natalie looks like. Eugene followed Natalie, who was ahead of her.

“Make your boundaries clear.”

Natalie left only those words and raised the light of magical power in her hand. The presence of the monster increased to the limit. Eugene began revising his strategy. I definitely support that guy.

“Follow the road well.”

Natalie snorted and started walking forward. The monsters flew in without hiding their presence, and Natalie took them down mechanically. And, it was the remaining monsters that flew to Eugene and Cora. Yujin widened her eyes as she watched the group of monsters being filtered out.

If you can’t even take care of the leftovers, can you move forward? Can you beat that guy? Eugene and Cora gnashed their teeth to deflect the attacking monsters and knock them down. I didn’t think of the end. Leaving that to Natalie, who was standing in front of them, they just focused on dealing with monsters and not dying. One last one, one last one more-!!

“Good job.”

Then, a familiar sound came to my ears. Eugene and Cora looked up to face the voice. At the edge of the forest, a hero stood tall and greeted them.

“It’s over… all.”

Eugene and Cora’s legs gave way and they fell to the floor. The hero supported them and moved them to the prepared bed. The two students stood with dazed faces, soaked in the sentiment that they had completed their assignment, forgetting that the hero was carrying them. The warrior looked at the students who had fallen on the bed with a happy expression and turned his head.

“Natalie did a good job too.”

Natalie showed no sign of exhaustion. With emotionless, rational eyes, she looked at the forest she had just come through. There was no joy in completing the task.

“It was a challenge that I could pass alone.”

“yes. However, passing with someone else is a completely different type of task than passing alone. You will find out in the future.”

The warrior laughed. Natalie couldn’t understand his laugh.

“It’s going to be difficult.”

“That’s the responsibility of those who have power in some way.”

Natalie looked at the hero with an expression that did not quench her thirst. The hero smiled nonchalantly at the girl.

kill the warrior

A voice echoed in Natalie’s head. Now is not the time. It won’t be too late to implement the plan after knowing more about the hero. Natalie thought so and took a step forward. Natalie’s personal curiosity was mixed with that knowledge to some extent.

“Teach me more.”

The hero looked at Natalie as if troubled by those words. Then, very slowly, he nodded.

“great. I think this time is a special case. It is a reward for completing the task I gave you.”

The warrior then pulled out the sword he was wearing at his waist. It was a sword that looked different from the ‘Holy Sword’ Natalie knew. Probably a sword provided by the academy. It didn’t look threatening because the blade wasn’t standing, but the swordsman holding it seemed to be invigorating.

“Come once. I will deal with you only this time.”

Only then did the look of inadequacy disappear from Natalie’s face. The opponent you have to kill. It was necessary to fight several times in order to grasp his strength. How much of his power he normally hides, how strong he would be if he revealed all of his power. Also what are the weaknesses?

“Barrier, setting change. training ground.”

In an instant, the landscape of the barrier changed to a room plastered with black walls. The hero was just staring at Natalie with the eyes of a student, whether or not he knew that Natalie would try to kill him someday.

“Come first.”

At the hero’s words, Natalie ran out without hesitation. The true power of each other is kept hidden. If so, how close would he be to becoming a hero with only his revealed power? Natalie’s new shape blurred.

Key Yiing-!

The magic power works. And, in the slowing world that only he could reach, the hero’s turquoise eyes were following him exactly. Natalie’s vision, opening her eyes in surprise, caught the shape of the warrior’s mouth.

“It is also fast.”

bang-!!!

With a roar, Natalie bounced off and fell. Even Natalie’s eyes couldn’t properly capture the blow of the hero who defeated her. Natalie opened her eyes fiercely and glared at the hero.

“Come back.”

And the hero looked at Natalie with a smile as if provoking.

“… Your expression is a bit brighter these days.”

I looked up. Across from me, Nella had not touched the food she had received. Condescending to her attitude, I put down the spoon I was scooping and looked at Nella.

“You look bright?”

“Does teaching children fit your aptitude?”

I smiled and smiled. If it had been sarcastic, I would have said something back, but now Nella seemed completely lost in her thoughts as she said that to me. It was because those green eyes were staring blankly at me for some reason.

“It’s a sense of responsibility. There are things that make me happy, though. I’m still young, but the absorption power is much faster than I thought. It was pretty satisfying to see that.”

Little by little, I felt that I was preparing for the monster attack. It is still unknown how to deal with the comet, but with Daphne, it will work somehow. Natalie… , but I’ll have to watch it a little longer.

“[I’m glad you seem to have found some time to spare. That is also the power of the successor, the power of the disciple.]”

It’s not like some kind of hermit master raising disciples. I smiled at the Holy Sword’s words.

“… okay.”

After saying that, Nella lowered her head back to the bowl. Nella, who had been nibbling at her food little by little, took a big drink and raised her head. I tried to read the emotion in those green eyes. The glare of a knight’s gaze before declaring war or requesting a duel. It was a look that somehow reminded me of the knights of Evernode.

“Hey, warrior.”

“?”

Nella put down her spoon.

“Measures against the sixth plague. I will do it without your help. Even if you don’t defeat the calamity, I will prove it by defeating it.”

It was an unexpected word. I looked at Nella, dumbfounded, as she continued to speak.

“You keep teaching the kids like that. wait and see Because the hero will cleverly show you who the wizard sent from the party is.”

Then, as if embarrassed by her words, Nella ate the food in one bite and stood up. I looked at the back of her as she ran away, then turned my head to the table and immediately let out a laugh.

“… I left my wallet behind.”

i will come back to get it

I thought so and slowly scooped out the spoon. Sure enough, Nella, her face flushed red, bowed her head and began to walk quickly toward the table again.

“Did you say you hated him?”

Edwin’s attitude seemed to be testing her somewhere. Nella tried to answer, of course, but swallowed. there was something Edwin’s question made me feel that reluctance. Nella asked Edwin, frowning.

“Why are you asking that question?”

“… Well, I can’t say you’re on good terms with him. I was a little curious, so I asked.”

Edwin shrugged his shoulders as if it was nothing. Nella glared at Edwin with thin eyes. I hate warriors That’s true. However, even though he will openly reveal it to himself, he does not bite cowardly behind his back. It was Nella’s strong ego as a wizard, and it was the least respect she could pay to the hero who saved the world after letting her go.

“… The professor doesn’t care. And, I don’t mean to disparage what he’s accomplished as a warrior, even if I personally don’t like it. I can objectively understand that mindset.”

He was kicked out because he couldn’t get his eyes on him. Daphne, a sorceress, was chosen because she had more talent than herself. Even if you can’t admit it, you are the one who has developed by engraving that fact. He couldn’t hurt the ego of his few remaining wizards by spewing him out on anyone.

“… is it.”

“If you don’t have any more questions, I’ll leave.”

Nella turned her back on Edwin and walked away. He lightly ignored Edwin’s gaze that kept following him.
