I see your code (183)
When I set my destination and set off, I felt something uncomfortable in one of my arms. It’s not common. It’s the part I’ve always been paying attention to from the moment I started holding the sword.
He frowned slightly and lowered his gaze. And I discovered a giant of a huge body. Utureda, who had fallen in the midst of suffering.
“… … .”
How the hell did you forget about this size?
It is very strange to think of it as one of the simple happenings. Come to think of it, I don’t understand why the other party asked only about Consi.
There are both the smallest and largest species on the continent, but isn’t it funny to discover the former first? He is a guy whose size takes the place of his presence.
After thinking for a while, he shook Uture’s arm to wake him up. If you have any questions, just ask.
“Uture. Wake up, Uture.”
“Wow, I didn’t faint! I just fell asleep!”
Uture screamed loudly and jumped up from his seat. deaf will go down
“Okay, I have a question for you.”
“What is it?”
“Have you ever been endowed with the ‘Spirit of Ancestors’?”
In this world, the giants are a bit unusual. On a continent with the highest magical power, all these guys have is almost all their strong physical abilities. In fact, it can be said that they are a race that should have been culled earlier.
The reason it didn’t happen is because of that ‘Spirit of Ancestors’.
It is similar to the power of an apostle, but the difference is whether you receive the characteristics of the god you worship or whether you receive the characteristics of your ancestors.
It sounds almost the same except for the subject that gives power.
Uture bowed his head with a puzzled face.
“Uture did not receive the spirit of his ancestors. Uture, you have no talent.”
“I have no talent… … .”
nonsense.
Didn’t the guy who barely made it through the coming-of-age ceremony entered the second stage of the forest of great inheritance? Besides, I don’t think I know it yet, but I’m sure I’ve received the spirit of my ancestors.
Otherwise, nothing as magical as it just happened would have happened.
The character of the soul… … Is it something like erasing its presence?
It’s definitely an inconspicuous ability, so it’s likely that you didn’t notice it. Stealth at that size, who would have imagined?
But I think it would be better to use it thanks to that stereotype… … .
I changed my mind. It was an accidental meeting, but it should be mine.
“But where are you? The one next to it resembles a cloud I found when I looked up at the sky. It’s like cotton candy… … .”
“Uture.”
“what?”
“Are you going to go back to the tribe like this?”
Uture nodded vigorously.
“Yes. Uture is now a senior warrior. You must go to the chieftain and brag about it.”
“Wrong. You are not a senior warrior.”
I thought you would be angry right away at my words, but first of all, you put on a puzzled expression as if you wanted to hear the reason.
That is also one of the bonus points. The fact that he didn’t come out of his fist is proof that he has a lot of patience for a giant.
“Why aren’t you a senior warrior? Uture obviously went to hardship. Are you also ignoring that I did not receive the spirit of my ancestors?”
“It’s not like that. Uture, I know that the condition of being a senior warrior is to go to the second stage of the forest of inheritance.”
“By the way?”
“You go in with your feet. But how did you get out?”
Uture’s body hardened.
“right. It’s not your feet, I’m here to support you.”
“That, that… … .”
“Are you going to argue that it wasn’t something you asked for?”
He lowered his gaze and asked.
What you say on the outside and what you think on the inside are different.
Even Uture, who claimed to be relaxed inside, would have known well enough that he was destined to die there if I hadn’t helped.
In short, I’m a lifesaver.
But if you get angry with me here again, it gets a little more difficult. Aside from patience, it means that personality itself has been devoured.
The ability is coveted, but if you can’t trust it, you don’t need it.
He calmly waited for Uture’s reply. Tears welled up in his eyes as to what was so unfortunate.
“… … Uture, it is not. Rather, thank you.”
“Then why are you crying?”
“I don’t cry. It’s just sweat.”
Since when did the eye become an organ that excretes sweat?
“Well, okay. So why are you sweating now? The weather is cool too.”
“… … to disassemble.”
“decomposition?”
Uture wiped his face with his arm and nodded.
“Uture, I did not receive the spirit of my ancestors. All he has is dignified and handsomely developed muscles and overflowing strength.”
“… … .”
“So I was just trying to be recognized. But Uture, I couldn’t do that either. Uture, a useless giant.”
So, you’re angry because you’re not good enough… … . Do you have a good personality?
I smiled contentedly and looked down at the guy lying there.
“Uture. look at me How do I look?”
“It looks weak and poor. Are you hungry?”
“okay. You look weak and poor by your standards.”
“It’s not my standards, but anyone can see it.”
I was holding back my hand almost going out.
“Anyway, weak and meager by your standards, I went up to the second stage of the Forest of Succession where you were. Isn’t it strange?”
“Come to think of it… … .”
As if realizing only then, Uture put on a surprised expression on his face.
“How the hell did you get there with that poor body?”
“It’s not like that. I went completely through the forest.”
Actually, it didn’t pass, but it doesn’t really matter because it’s a harder law to break. Isn’t it enough to just show your skills?
Uture shook his head violently and shouted.
“This is ridiculous! Even our chieftains can’t pass through it!”
“That would be true. But I am not a chieftain.”
“You mean you were able to get through because you weren’t the chieftain?”
“no. I was able to pass through the country. If you don’t believe me, go back to the forest later. The ordeal will be gone now.”
“Will the ordeal of the forest go away if you pass?”
“Yes.”
– It’s not like that!
Consi, who had been watching us from a little distance, interrupted in an absurd voice. But Uture and I didn’t even care.
“… … Uture, I’m curious. The secret to being strong even with such a weak body. Can you teach me?”
“Sure.”
I smiled and said as I pulled out a piece of paper I always kept in my pocket.
“You just need to sign this document.”
* * *
Uture couldn’t read the text. I did not intend to be ignorant of the day, so I explained the contents of the contract in words one by one.
As I grabbed the guy who was tired of saying it was difficult and talked about it, I saw Layton.
“under… … .”
You shouldn’t fall in love with a city like this, why is it always nice to see you? Is this similar to Stockholm Syndrome?

Maybe it’s because I always come back after a long time. For some reason, every time I go out, I always go beyond my schedule… … .Well, now, even calling it ‘this city’ is something to do with it.
Because of what I did, Layton was just as vibrant as when it was the capital of the Empire.
In some areas, things were even better than they were back then. sanitation or hygiene.
Anyway, I decided to end the appreciation here, and landed Suba a little further away from the city. This is because if you go in like this, it is obvious that you will stand out too much.
After walking for another 30 minutes from where we got off, we finally reached the entrance to Layton.
“stop.”
Arina’s escort Francis, who was at the forefront, stopped by the restraint of the man in armor.
“I think they are outsiders… … What’s going on with Layton? Seeing that there are no items, it must not be a business.”
Arina, behind Francis, turned to me. The eyes are full of curiosity. Maybe my eyes are the same as his.
Since when did Layton have a guard?
I moved forward because I thought it would be better for people I didn’t know to step forward.
“Are you a vigilante?”
“Oh, I guess you are not very ignorant of the city. But that’s an old name. We just changed the name of the organization.”
Why? I thought about it, but I thought it might be possible.
It would have grown quite a bit if there was even a security guard at the entrance of the city, but to call it vigilantes forever would have seemed too frivolous.
It has to be like a rural village youth association.
“Then what was the name change?”
In response to my question, the guard stretched out his shoulders and spoke with an equal force.
“‘The Specter of the Empire’.”
“… … .”
Is it a really sane name?
How careful I am to not get his imperial tag. Even for the second time, the naming is too shriveled. The title of the original Rinol mercenaries is also the same.
I asked with a big sigh.
“Is that Zyre Terberotz’s idea?”
“Oh, I didn’t know you even knew our leader’s name. That’s right. That’s the name the captain gave.”
Did he get 2nd bottle late?
“How long has it changed?”
“It’s been a while. Is it three days?”
thank god. If that’s enough, I wouldn’t mind leaving it alone.
As we were about to say thank you for letting us know and enter, the man stopped us once again.
“for a moment! You don’t seem to know, but the system has been changed to such a way that all outsiders can only enter after being tested. Oh, and no weapons are allowed. If you leave it, I will return it to you when you leave.”
I frowned slightly.
Even so, swordsman, I couldn’t leave my weapon behind. It’s no longer an ordinary sword.
“If that’s the case, I don’t think there will be any problems with me or the priest over there. I am not an outsider.”
As he pointed to Arina and said, the guard looked at him suspiciously.
“Not an outsider… … . But among the residents who went out in the last week, there wasn’t even a face like you?”
“It has to be so. You came back a few months ago, not a few days ago.”
“A few months… … ?”

Maybe a year My sense of time has been a bit dull lately, so I’m not sure. I’m so busy.Anyway, I’m telling the truth as far as I know, but the guard’s vigilance has grown stronger.
“There are still a lot of monsters around here. Neither will the other three kingdoms accept Layton natives. But where have you been for months?”
“… … .”
I couldn’t answer. Not because it’s confidential, but because it’s obvious that you won’t believe it anyway.
Even just going to an elf village would make me look like a madman, but I also stopped by Lubinheiken, didn’t I?
Even if the path is drawn in a straight line, it is a journey that should be counted in years, not months.
From natural elements such as monsters and mountain ranges, to artificial elements such as borders and cities, all kinds of problems must be present. That’s why I ignored it all thanks to Sva.
If I had known it would be like this, would I have been riding the Suba even if I just caught my eye?
At that time, I was thinking about taking it out even now.
“… … Rihanna?”
Inside the entrance, I heard a voice calling me.
