“I was expecting what a great person he was because he was the guardian of the dragon, but he was someone who couldn’t do anything but laugh like everyone else.”
Lista… … No, the goblin slayer crossed his arms as if he was stunned and glared at me with a shy look.
I couldn’t say anything.
I wondered if it was a hallucination, so I opened Bel Sidious momentarily and inspected its inner flesh, but there was no supernatural power mixed with it. that is, it is real.
“What, let’s try it?”
Perhaps it was because he opened Bell Sidious and stared at it, the goblin slayer frowned in displeasure as he grabbed the hilt of his dagger.
“you you… … How are you alive?”
At that time I was saying
There’s no way you’ll recognize me now that I’m Rain, not Rin. I lost my composure to the point where my mind went blank.
“I was wondering how they are so strong when they say they only catch goblins… … .”
Lista, it’s Lista.
I barely managed to raise my voice, but he just glared at me with blatant wary eyes.
“How are you alive? You’ve never died. What nonsense are you talking about?”
I blankly doubted my ears, but Pippi, who tilted his head, circled around the guy’s face and barked.
“Genuine? genuine? genuine? genuine?”
“Genuine? What is this parrot called?”
Then, Pipi landed on my shoulder and opened her eyes with a sharp look.
“Fake, fake, fake, fake.”
“Because he resembles the owner, he has no manners at all. My name isn’t fake, it’s Miria. Me, Lee, Ah.”
In a moment of caution, I stepped back half a step.
The name Miria could have been used as a pseudonym, so it could have been passed on, but not recognizing Pippi was a serious problem.
Is it an imitation created by a warlock, such as Ribenny and Ribadin, through human transmutation?
‘But that doesn’t even make sense.’
If that was the case, it would have been the end of it when I caught up with the branch earlier, why did you bring me here?
‘But being real doesn’t make much sense.’
Yoshar said that Lista was dead, and that her body was in good condition and was kept in the charnel house of the Emperor’s Office. Dragons don’t lie.
‘No, look closely… … .’
Even if it seemed trivial, there were huge differences.
Because of the moonlight, the color of his hair seemed gray, but upon closer inspection, it turned out to be blonde. The color of her eyes was not gold eyes, but green eyes with the color of jade.
When Paquorea transforms the human body with the dragon’s soul, her hair turns white and her eyes turn into the golden eyes of the dragon.
In addition, Rista’s skin color was pure white and transparent like milk, befitting an imperial aristocrat, but this guy had a northern republic’s unique dark copper skin. So I muttered this to myself.
‘I don’t think it’s Lista… … ?’
At that time, the great Jinryong’s eyes shone.
“Kreur… … .”
From noble mtl dot com
I wondered if he was glaring at the goblin slayer, but he shook his head excitedly as if he had seen the wrong person, da-boo! I suddenly opened my eyes. Honestly, I don’t know what this guy was trying to do.
The goblin slayer, who identified herself as Miria, let out a low sigh as if bewildered, and looked us up and down.
“They stare at each other as a group and talk nonsense, and they don’t even know it’s rude. And the absurd one is on my side, do you guys know me?”
Then, you know better than anyone.
A soul echo echoed dizzyingly in the midst of a madly beating heart.
Miria, unable to recognize such feelings, pressed her temples.
“I’m completely out of my mind. This is why men It’s like this when I see my face.”
“… … .”
“If I had to give you sincere advice, it’s better to wake up. I hate the face of a parasitic brother, but more than anything… … I hate men who like to tease people like you.”
Miria’s voice, narrowing her sharp eyes, was as refreshing as a clear stream. Just like Lisa did.
“this… … Can’t you see?”
Lastly, just in case, I took out a jewel from Ceresia’s pocket.
A jade stone ring that sparkles like flames on the surface of the jewel. It is a keepsake of the fire dragon priestess, Friede.
While the guy was watching the ring carefully, he spied on his expression, but there was no change. Rather, it made it even colder.
“It does look expensive. Were you thinking of trying to get a crush on yourself by bragging about money? I don’t know if that would work in the Empire, but wake up.”
Then, hearing the sound of a crow barking in the distance, Miria trembled and put on the helmet again.
“The crows smelled it because you were doing useless things. Don’t you know that you’re being chased?”
That’s all.
I just wore a helmet.
The light that had been illuminating a place deep in my heart faded in an instant, and cold darkness enveloped my whole body, and chills rushed in.
“Follow me. If you delay longer, black witches on broomsticks will appear.”
Without hesitation, Miria turned her back and walked into the cave dug by the goblins.
The fragments of memories piled on his back… … The face of Rista, who always led the way with the extreme satellite sword Surpin on her back, looked back at me and smiled broadly.
The treasure I treasured deep in my soul, that smile that would break my heart every time I thought of it… … .
– The chain of broken ties will be refilled.
The water dragon Yeriselica clearly said so.
So of course I thought it was Restyle, but it’s not Restar, what the hell happened?
So who is this guy?
* * *
“Oh, warrior.”
The hero, Lista Alter Surpin, was able to find the Osarius School’s mage tower seven years after Rin’s treasure arrived at the mage tower.
If you ask me why I came here only now, after 7 years, it’s because I have no face to look for… … .
But now that his lifespan was coming to an end, he mustered up the courage to do his last duty and went to the Osaryus School.
The Osarius School had developed prosperously beyond comparison to when they were found before.
The number of disciples seemed to be well over two hundred, and the school uniforms were unified as the procession of patronage came from all over the empire.
It was the same black monk robe with a blue robe that Rin had worn throughout the journey. Lista smiled bitterly.
“Lin said she liked it very much.”
“Is it?”
“Yes, the dean himself bought it for me. There were many times when my clothes were torn during battles, but instead of buying new ones, they repaired them and wore them.”
“oh.”
“It was Lin’s most cherished treasure. With a hat.”
A smile of sadness and joy formed on the corners of Dean Atlante’s wrinkled mouth.
“If I had known that, I would have bought something much better and put it on…” … .”
The two exchanged sad smiles and walked along the school’s corridors.
The disciples recognized the hero and bowed deeply. Seeing them like that, I felt something was lacking.
what was it Rin and I look exactly the same… … Ahh.
“I don’t have a seat.”
“Is it Seokjang?”
“Because Yoshar-nim gave Rin the three medals. I taught her stick so that she could deal with it later… … Oh, if you don’t mind, would you like me to organize the magic in a book?”
Atlante just waved her hand with a quiet smile.
“I dare not ask such a favor of a noble person.”
“No, me! I really want to do it!”
“If it was a simple favor, I would be grateful… … If it’s an act of guilt, I won’t accept it. Rin wouldn’t want it either.”
At that moment, Lista felt a pain in her chest, as if her heart was being torn out below her chest, helplessly grabbing her heart and wrinkled her clothes.
“Dean… … Rin, Rin… … I’m really sorry I couldn’t bring you… … .”
“… … .”
“I shouldn’t have taken you… … No matter how competent you are, such a young child… … .”
“I was the one who asked you to take him.”
“I was the one who took him in the end. I’m sure Rin also resents me… … .”
I could feel the sadness welling up on the eyes that were unbearably hot.
Rather than comforting her by hugging her like that or saying that she was more wrong, Atlante silently led her to the dean’s office.
Then, he took out the wooden box he had been keeping in the drawer, which was extremely precious. When I opened the lid, countless pieces of paper rustled.
“This is a letter from Rin. Would you like to take a look?”
Lynn… … ?
Come to think of it, Lin always wrote letters at night when he felt the environment to send letters was ready.
[Dean, we have arrived in the southern part of the Empire. As you said, it’s very hot. The hat you gave me is helpful. Very slightly.]
[Professor, we have now crossed the borders of the Republic. Maybe it’s because the Republic doesn’t have a class system, people are definitely more lively than the Empire.]
[Dean, today we are boarding a ship that goes from Akrad to Adrion. I think we will fight more often now. I will try hard.]
It’s like Lin… … .
The sentences revealed Rin’s personality to the extent that I laughed unconsciously. Even if he hadn’t heard the explanation that it was a letter from Rin, he would have known it right away.
“As you can see, it was a short letter that at first felt reluctant to write, but it matured as the years passed.”
Indeed, as the second year progressed, the length of the letter grew longer.
From the 3rd year, I started to fill up the stationery, and from the 4th year, something… … It seemed like someone else had written it.
[Dean, today Lista got angry for me.
To be honest, I still can’t understand it. It means shedding tears for others or getting angry. But I don’t know why, but I thought it was cool.
Dean, I also want to become a cool adult like Lista someday. Could it be?]
You had this kind of heart then… … A corner of his chest swelled up. There were also some funny letters among them.
[Dean, I picked up a jar of grievances.
Just like the dean did for me, I gave him a name and taught him some magic, and he started chasing me as a master.
Looking at this guy, I realized how well-mannered and even intelligent I didn’t bother the dean, and that the dean should thank me.
It’s a joke.]
I had managed to hold back the tears that were welling up, but the moment I read the last letter, my eyes were wet to the point where I couldn’t see the words.
[Dean, it’s already been five years. The expedition is now coming to an end.
If I go to the magic tower and see it in person, I don’t think I can honestly say it, so I’ll write it in a letter now.
Dean, thank you. Thank you for allowing me to leave with Lista. Thanks to Lista, I saw a lot, heard a lot, and felt a lot.
When I go back to the Magic Tower, I’m thinking of doing better for my classmates who are ignorant but don’t hate it.
I was only a hand taller. Her face hasn’t changed much either. I don’t like it, but the dean won’t be able to recognize me.
Are there many wrinkles on the dean’s face because the classmates are upset? I’m a little worried that you won’t recognize me because you’re a grandmother.]
Tears flowed incessantly down my cheeks, pooled at my chin, and fell endlessly to the floor.
“Neither Rin nor I have ever held a grudge against the hero. That child followed the hero and found true happiness.”
Atlante gently put her hand on Rista’s shoulder.
“I can tell. A child raised like a son… … A child who couldn’t honestly express his emotions ended up writing and sending such a long letter.”
“But, but, dean, I, if I had done better—”
“—Thank you very much, hero. Thank you for taking Rin that day.”
Thank you for teaching Rin the world.
Thank you for allowing Rin to grow into such a wonderful adult… … At the feet of Atlante, who bowed deeply, dew dripped and left a stain.
“Really, thank you… … .”
