19 – Warrior Party after Allan left (10) – Disruption
Obviously, the situation the warrior party was in was desperate.
The situation where the party’s mage and fighter died. Perhaps, if they continued to fight as they were, the warrior party would undoubtedly be annihilated, and it would probably reach an irreversible point.
In that situation, the really fortunate thing was that Raina didn’t die.
Fortunately, I was able to safely protect the warrior’s blessing.
There is nothing worse than losing the warrior’s blessing.
If that happens, no matter how you defeat this demon king, he will not be able to handle the next generation of demon kings.
In this situation, it was fortunate that the worst was avoided.
But, as I said before, there was no doubt that the current situation was really bad.
Of the 5 warrior party members, only the hero and the saint are alive, and the fighter, the thief, and the wizard are dead.
“Haa…”
And Nera thought that Raina was responsible for this situation.
She sighed deeply.
It was Raina’s fault for kicking Alan out in the first place, and her comrades died because of it.
So Nera thought about arguing with Laina.
If I take this opportunity to reprimand Raina for not listening, wouldn’t she get better? As she thought about it, she looked at Rina.
But she didn’t bother.
Because it didn’t seem necessary.
“Ugh… Damn it…!”
I saw Raina striking the ground with a look of resentment.
She also seemed to be quite mentally out of sorts. Seeing that, she stopped daring to reprimand me here.
Even Laina is heartbroken like that, but now is the time to comfort her rather than reprimand her.
Nera comforted her by patting her depressed shoulder on the shoulder.
“… Rina, don’t get too depressed. We shouldn’t get frustrated…”
“… Yes… A hero shouldn’t be frustrated by something like this.”
Laina seems to be cheering up at Nera’s words.
Seeing Laina like that, Nera smiled a little.
Despite the circumstances, she thought that anyone could make mistakes.
The important thing is to admit mistakes and reflect.
If Rina had no reflection, she wouldn’t be able to stand up again.
And in that sense, Nera made a suggestion.
“Raina. Let’s go visit Alan. Let’s start again together with Alan.”
Let’s go find Alan.
Let’s go and start again.
If you do that, you will surely be able to overcome this current crisis.
Nera thought that was certainly true.
But…
“…Why do I have to go see Allan?”
“Yes…?”
Raina’s thoughts seemed completely different.
Raina looked at Nerah with an expression that she didn’t understand at all.
“Yeah, it’s because Alan didn’t exist…”
“That sounds like nothing.”
The more you talk to Laina, the more you feel the difference.
At first, Nera had no idea what this sense of difference was, but…
The more we talked, the more we understood.
“Then what was the cause of this? What was the cause of the deaths of Andros and Elina?”
“Yeah… I was weak.”
“Yes…?”
“Because the party members were weak.”
The more she talked with Laina, the more Nera realized.
Raina knew that she wasn’t reflecting.
She said that she was completely mistaken about Raina.
Raina was saying that it was not her fault that she failed to subdue the demon lord.
She was referring to dead party members. She
She was thinking she was like this because the dead party members were useless.

Now that Nera understood that fact, she couldn’t help but be angry.
It doesn’t make sense that she still doesn’t reflect.
She was trying to sound so she did it right.
“Are you done talking now? Is that what she’s going to say to her dead comrades?”
“Of course I don’t mean to insult them. But, to be honest, is there anything wrong with me?”
However, it seemed that Raina had no intention of listening to Nera’s words. She
She made her claim to the end that she wasn’t to blame.
“Does it make sense that I couldn’t get a proper effective hit while I was fighting the demon lord hard in the first place?”
Rather, she slammed the party members even harder.
Party members who weren’t helpful at all.
“It’s no different than if I fought properly alone. They were just a hindrance rather than a help.”
Raina was still full of self-pity.
“Huh… Now that I mean…”
Seeing Laina like that, Nera couldn’t help but feel full of energy.
Clearly, it was true that no one except Raina could land an effective hit on the demon lord.
Because the demon king was stronger than I thought and the warrior party was weaker than I thought, it was certain that this sadal came.
But isn’t there something that could not have happened?
I think that if Rina had used good judgment, she would… She could have changed.
Raina’s responsibility for not bringing out the true abilities of her party members was too great.
Raina didn’t know that yet.
She still looks at Rina so foolish…
Nera let out a deep sigh.
If she was Alan, she would have been different…
It was a moment that reminded me of Alan.
“If it were Alan… I wouldn’t say that.”
“What?”
“It would have been different if it had been Alan.”
So Nera argued with Raina, and when she heard that, Raina’s impression was crumpled.
For her Raina, her words comparing her to ‘Alan’ were the things she hated the most.
Allan was her rage trigger.
“Hey. Nerah. I think you’re seriously mistaken. Do you think it would have been different if Alan was there?”
Raina doesn’t think Alan is that competent.
So, she insisted, having Alan made no difference.
Alan is just a tank. Because he was the most useless man at the party.
“If Alan was the hero in the first place, our warrior party would have suffered even more devastating damage. Rather, you were bought because of me.”
Rather, in terms of being competent, he thinks he is more competent.
Alan is the weakest hero, and he himself is the strongest.
There was no way Allan could do what he couldn’t do.
“In the first place, the party members were all chosen by Alan. If it were me, I would have chosen strong party members in the first place.”
Also, they started putting the blame for this on Alan.
It was Allan who recruited the dead party members.
This was his responsibility.
That was her claim.
“Really… You have no conscience.”
And that claim, from Nerah’s point of view, was, of course, a claim worth dying of insanity.
Looking at the figure of Raina who did not reflect on her until it reached this point, Nera shook her head.
She was sincerely trying to hate her as a human being.
“People like you are not warriors or anything.”
As expected, I didn’t believe in Raina.
Raina may be the strongest hero, but she is the worst. She
Was a trashy warrior who drove her comrades to their deaths.
“Alan is a real warrior.”
Alan may be the weakest, but he was the best.
Not only does he never let his comrades die, he uses their powers too well.
If it was Alan, the result might have been completely different when he fought the demon king.
“I’m just a stupid, stubborn, proud kid.”
But Raina was a woman full of vanity that neither realized nor reflected on it.
She believes in such a woman and follows her all the way here…
He should have gone looking for Allan when he left in the first place.
I had to prevent a disaster like this.
Why on earth did he just follow Rina’s words?
“Hey. Are you done talking now?”
“I did less, but would you like more?”
At Nera’s words, Raina glared at her with a sigh.
Because she couldn’t stand her insults to herself.
And Nera also glared straight at Laina.
An imminent situation.
The two of them were driven to the point where they were on the verge of fighting while growling at each other.
But still, the fight didn’t happen.
“What…? What’s going on in my town…?”
“Isn’t it the knight and the nun of the church? Are you going to fight now?”
“Oh… What if the field is ruined…”
It was only then that the two of them looked around and realized where this place was.
The place where the two are now connected was a field in a quiet village.
In such a place, the two were in a situation where they were making a fuss.
This situation was an act that should not be done as a warrior party.
If we fight in a place like this, it will surely harm the villagers.
I don’t want that.
“Let’s move.”
So the two avoided this place and headed to a place where there was no line of sight.
In the meantime, fortunately, the anger between the two of them cooled down a lot.
The two arrived at a shady rock a short distance from the village.
After standing there, Raina let out a sigh and talked about her future.
“Anyway, I’m going to create a new warrior party. And I’m going to defeat the demon lord. Only this time. So, Nera, follow me. First, go back to the nearby castle and reorganize…”
She chewed her lips, making her will.
It was her strong determination to challenge the demon king again.
Looking at this, the person named Raina itself was not evil.
Nera doesn’t know that either.
But she was a real warrior with a sense of justice.
But she couldn’t stay with me any longer in this state.
There was one thing we had to do to go together.
“Before that, apologize to Alan.”
“What?”
“Apologize to Allan. Then accept Allan as a party member again.”
Nera told Raina to apologize.
She told Alan to go and apologize sincerely.
“Why am I with that guy?”
“Aren’t you going to apologize?”
“Why am I apologizing when I haven’t done anything wrong?”
Of course, Raina couldn’t hear that.
Due to Rina’s pride, she never apologizes to Alan.
As expected, it wasn’t that Nera didn’t know what to say.
Because Raina was like that.
She understood.
“As expected…You can’t fix it.”
It was only a regret.
If she knew it would be like this, if she knew Rina would be like that, she would… She would have had the courage herself.
“In the first place… I should have stopped it then. Then Alan wouldn’t have passed on the hero’s blessing…”
Such a tragedy would not have happened otherwise, she said.
“What do you mean? What happened?”
Nera’s words mixed with melancholy and irritation.
After hearing her words, Raina asked.
