102 . Hero (1)
The atmosphere of the children who were told to kill all seemed to be full of joy for a moment.
It wasn’t a change I couldn’t understand. It was a human being who forgot them and made them look shabby, so my revenge and interests matched.
But now I know. Rather than taking revenge for their own face, the fact that the country that was abandoned by humans truly cares for humans.
In the meantime, Elia asked me with a worried expression.
“Daddy is doing it too, right?”
You think I’m still on the side of the humans? There was no reason for me to abandon or disappoint them now. I patted her head with a bright smile that overshadowed Elia’s concerns.
“Of course not.”
I didn’t really like the fact that I had to deal with humans with my own hands.
It’s different now. There was already a lot of blood on my hands, and humans didn’t see me as the same person. Likewise, I couldn’t see them as human beings either. Insignificant garbage that others are willing to sacrifice for personal safety.
I couldn’t ever borrow the children’s hands to punish them. Now it was my turn to punish them myself.
●
Olivia sat on top of her golem and she wiggled her legs in boredom.
As long as the other children were given the signal to gather, they couldn’t move hastily by themselves, and they had no choice but to watch the humans busily prepare to greet them.
“It would be nice to just wipe it all away….”
The moment Olivia muttered to herself as she looked at her humans, I called her near the leg of her golem.
“Olivia.”
Olivia’s eyes widened when she heard my voice, and she pushed her head out from above the golem and looked at me.
“Dad!”
As soon as Olivia checked me out, she immediately came down from the golem and into my arms. Olivia, whom she saw for the first time in a while, showed a consistent appearance, not different from before. As her voluptuous breasts were pressed against my body and her sweet scent gently radiated, I was quite troubled as I remembered what had happened before, but I calmed down for now because she had many eyes for her eyes.
“It wasn’t hard, was it?”
As she caressed Olivia’s hair and asked in a worried tone, her expression darkened for a moment. Did something happen? Olivia smiled mischievously to dispel my concerns and gently put her hand on her waist.
“It was difficult not seeing my father.”
“Really? Just like me. My dad was lonely without Olivia by his side.”
She asked me back with her golden eyes shining brightly at my words.
“Really?”
“Of course not.”
Right after the conversation ended, Olivia’s eyes lit up and she smiled strangely, then she came close to my ear.
“Then let’s sleep together after work?”
I knew that the act of sleeping she was talking about was not the act of sleeping soundly like before. It was a term referring to s*xual activity between a man and a woman, and I nodded my head without thinking about it. It felt like my life was complete just by satisfying them.
In fact, all of the above was only possible after clearing out the trash in front of me.
Seeing me, Helga looked at me from a distance, still looking awkward, and lightly bowed her head in greeting. This isn’t the first time we’ve met, but I couldn’t get used to it every time I saw him. What would it feel like to have someone you once looked down on as your superior?
I passed Helga and climbed over the head of her golem, which bowed her head towards me, to inspect the situation. The shouts of the humans gathered under one goal were getting louder and the heat was increasing. There was nothing but laughter. No matter how much the ant tried to catch a human, it was just a meaningless gesture in the face of overwhelming force.
In fact, Elia alone was able to suffice to trample on a group formed by humans. Even though she had the ability to do enough, the reason why she gave them a reprieve was because they wanted their vain hopes to mature a little longer. I never thought I would develop such a bad taste, but now I decided to watch their hopes. Since hope turns into despair in an instant, I was able to show mercy for the rest of my life.
The other three children were having a good time with Olivia, whom they hadn’t seen in a while, and Helga and Cassandra were avoiding each other’s eyes with awkward gestures.
Was it the first time you two met after the incident in the old town? I was worried that Helga, who had been killed by Cassandra, would rush at her right away, but she was more calm than I thought. Rather, it was Cassandra who felt nervous.
Helga glanced at Cassandra, then completely ignored her and turned her head towards the castle where the humans were gathered.
“Cassandra, are you ready?”
As if waiting for my question, Cassandra nodded her head and replied in her usual tone.
“Of course not. Who do you think I am?”
I didn’t care much if Cassandra spoke plainly, but they didn’t seem to be children. They all glared at her with ferocious glances the moment her Cassandra laid her words on me.
As one of her dogs, Cassandra, and Elia, her closest associate, glared at her with her venomous eyes, Cassandra added her own hastily to what she had just said.
“… Who do you think I am?”
“It’s useless courtesy. Let’s start now.”
As soon as the word “Let’s begin” Came out, the eyes of the children changed quite differently.
As Cassandra clapped her hands, a huge orb of light began to engulf the city, and soon the panicked voices echoed.
As if it wasn’t the end here, Cassandra smiled sinisterly and snapped her fingers. The brightly colored barrier gradually began to turn green and a dangerous-looking gas was being sprayed.
She can’t even be called a human anymore, but she was too cruel to do to those who were once human.
Of course, just when I thought Cassandra’s magic would work, Cassandra muttered with her embarrassed face.
“… What?”
“Why?”
Cassandra focused on her magic, frowning between her eyebrows as if she couldn’t hear Elia’s question.
It was only then that the children and I realized our ideals. Cassandra’s magic did not unfold further, and the screams of her people were no longer heard. Are there any humans who can block Cassandra’s magic? Even though Inseong was trash, he was a magician who was not ashamed of being called the Mage Master.
She seemed to be unable to comprehend the current situation, as she herself was proud of that fact.
“Being behind? I am for such scum!?”
In fact, Cassandra’s magic was gradually decreasing in size. The human magic that started from inside the castle wall eventually completely drove away Cassandra’s magic and formed a solid barrier. Cassandra, unable to admit her own defeat, plopped down on her floor and stared blankly at the castle walls.
Elia let out a pathetic sigh and pushed Cassandra away.
“Come out. Don’t look ugly in front of her dad.”
Pushing Cassandra away, Elia stretched out her finger towards the magic barrier her humans had erected.
It’s not a form where her magical power is completely released like before, but her magical power, which is condensed at Elia’s fingertips and shot toward her barrier, is so simple that it’s hard to believe that Cassandra struggled with her frown just now. It was broken.
Immediately after the barrier was broken, the situation on the other side of the wall could not be seen properly, but he was probably quite embarrassed.
Elia took a step forward and spoke forcefully towards her golems.
“Why are you standing there? Step on them all.”
As soon as the words were finished, the golems began to smash the walls and gates with their heavy bodies. There were signs that the magic was being cast again from inside, but it would only be a matter of time before it was pierced. In the first place, humans could not prevent disaster.
Stella, who was about to stretch herself and head towards the castle gate, patted Cassandra’s head on the head with the palm of her hand and compared it to Helga.
“Is this why you are less useful than that guy? Weren’t you the number two in the party before? Why do you think it has become so useless?”
Eliana Olivia stood beside Cassandra before she knew it, pouring out her taunts. Cassandra, who had a strong sense of her pride, was not enough for losing to humans, and she didn’t receive even the slightest consolation, so she looked as if she would burst out crying at any moment.
Watching the situation, Helga thought that if she didn’t achieve her results, she might have thought that it was her turn next. He drew her bowstring and aimed it at her inside. However, she had no choice but to face a situation that was unexpected for Helga, who always kept her cool. The sight of Helga, her hand shaking as she drew her bowstring, was even unfamiliar.
“You, how do you….”
Before her Helga’s quivering voice could be finished, she was shot with arrows, one in her forehead, two in her chest, and four in her arms and legs, and she fell to the floor. Crashed into
She won’t die to such an extent that she received the title of corps commander while being resurrected with the power of children, but she wasn’t common among humans who could unilaterally attack Helga.
As far as I know, at least Cassandra and Leon?
With her trembling gestures, Helga rose slowly from her seat and pulled out the arrow lodged in her body.
The pain won’t exist… Even so, her bewilderment in Helga’s eyes showed no signs of dissipating.
After Olivia, who was worse than her, slapped her Helga on the cheek, she asked in a rather angry voice.
“What are you doing again?”
“I-those guys… He must have died… ? No, a person who existed in the first place?”
As she questioned Helga’s words, she heard an unfamiliar voice from above her castle wall.
“Yes, he must have died.”
Unusual energy, I immediately raised my head and looked at the castle wall.
Cassandra, like me, reacted to the voice from above, and unlike me, like Helga, she had a look of disbelief. Then Cassandra brushed her face and burst into laughter.
“Yes, now I understand. Well, otherwise there’s no way those scum could stop my magic.”
There are a total of five people standing on top of the wall.
I frowned and took a closer look at their faces.
It was only then that I saw a familiar face.
And I could see why they reacted the way they did.
“Ha… In the end, did you mean that humans went as well?”
A hero who existed only in the absurd fairy tales I read with Ella when I was young. The possibility was ruled out by an achievement that could not even be imagined as a real person.
The five heroes who are said to be the strongest of all ages, all times and places. Their swords, resurrected to this world, were now pointed at us.
