Little Old Secret – 2
I said with a sly smile.
“Would only you like Grade-sama?”
“no. I was not a very good leader.”
Grade let out a sigh.
“Of course, I am not trying to denigrate myself when I was a warrior. Surely our party at that time was united with one heart and one mind. I was at the center of it.”
“·················ogue.”
“That’s why I mistook my bowl for a big one. At that time, there were a total of six members of our party. I was trying to fill the continent with a container that only holds six, so it had to be broken.”
At the meaningful words, I leaned over to him.
“Is it broken?”
“A lot of things happened until I became king and established an empire… Rather, the days were longer and more difficult than the journey to kill the Demon King.”
“·················ogue.”
“At first, my party members who were helping me also started to change. Some left me in disappointment, others turned into a more wretched man than me, greedy for power and wealth.”
He looked like he was chewing bitter poison raw.
“It was only Magna Neros who remained as they were in the first place until the very end.”
“It’s Lissel Bint.”
“Actually, this is what I wanted to ask from the beginning, but do you really know everything? There would be no record of Magna being a Lissel?”
“I have my own method.”
“Huh. If it weren’t for that, I wouldn’t have even thought of becoming a hero in the first place.”
He nodded coolly.
After looking at the atmosphere for a bit, I asked carefully.
“How did Lissel survive over 1,500 years?”
“·················ogue.”
“And what was her last? Why did you two break up, and why is Lissel following Cale like that?”
Grade let out a deep sigh.
Soon he slowly opened his mouth.
“It’s all my fault.”
Grade was a warrior among warriors with black hair and a whole body like a weapon.
He was looking down over the cliff with the warrior’s sword under his feet.
After just finishing the battle with the damn demon king of destruction.
Grade’s eyes reddened with the joy of having to protect everything in sight, and with the longing for the fallen comrades in the meantime.
At that moment, someone’s voice was heard behind Grade.
“Warrior.”
“Magna Neros.”
“I told you to call me Ressel when we were together. I prefer the name you gave me.”
Lissel was wearing a hood all the way to the top of her head, so she couldn’t see her face.
Hey, This hue. hmm read rental boyfriend and ov if u not yet did
Magna Neros never showed a face until he disappeared from history after he first became an ally of the Grade.Grade smiles.
“Isn’t Magna prettier? The spirits call you that way.”
“The spirits say that Magna Neros means ‘king’. It’s a name that doesn’t suit me the most.”
“I’m always sorry for you. That’s why I always cover my face.”
“I understand. I am a slave.”
“·················ogue.”
“The warrior always said. I need fame to become a warrior. And you can’t increase your reputation by having a slave as a party member.”
Fame.
It doesn’t seem like a specific figure like Maid, but all the warriors who received the oracle instinctively realize that ‘fame’ will make them a true warrior.

Just to knowsaid Grade.
“It is also for the time being. As you know, I and we defeated the Demon Lord of Destruction.”
“·················ogue.”
“My homeland has a king killed in this war. I will rise to that position with the strong support of the nobles and the people.”
He spoke with a face full of determination.
“Then we will abolish slavery. You can stand next to me with your true face.”
“Huhu. Wouldn’t the side be difficult? Even if I were freed from slavery, you would be a king.”
“If you say it’s just a simple king, I’m sorry. I will build an empire. You will become emperor.”
The empire had started in the small country in the south, the home country of the grade.
After the first emperor, Grade Van Handman, he gradually expanded its territory and eventually unified the continent.
The grand beginning of the epic was from this declaration of Grade.
Richell speaks in a slightly shriveled tone.
“Then it gets more difficult, what?”
“Because you are the Emperor, the Emperor. I can decide who I have by my side.”
“Ugh. Is that so?”
Russell laughed playfully.
But Grade was serious.
“On this continent, slaves treat non-humans with common sense. I will break such absurd common sense.”
“·················ogue.”
“I’m Rissel, I’m going to turn you into a human.”
“Heroes…”
They nestled themselves on each other.
decades later.
Lissel is a slave. But at the same time, he was the king of spirits.
It was when she realized something was strange when she defeated the Demon King and helped Grade to lay the foundations of the empire.
doesn’t age at all
no pain at all
The grade she loved left the traces of the years on her face day by day, but she couldn’t.
Finally, one day, Grade said.
“Ricell. Are you really okay?”
When he said that, the grade was already in his fifties.
There is no difference in calling her a lover with Rissel, who is a face in her early twenties.
“yes? What?”
“I was wondering if I could stay with a guy like me.”
“·································································································· No idea what you mean.”
“Thanks to your help, I ascended the throne and abolished the long-awaited slavery. I thought I could give you the ring, but then I looked in the mirror.”
Grade continued with a bitter smile.
“A man with an old-fashioned face.”
“Don’t say that! I will always love you…”
“This is for you. My life expectancy will be around thirty years at most. What are you going to do after that?”
“Hero!”
“Warrior. It’s a sound I haven’t heard in a long time.”
His bulging muscles suddenly became small and shriveled.
Grade said looking out the window.
“It may be my greed to keep you by my side.”
“lie!”
“Ricell?”
“Do not lie. I have ears and I have eyes.”
“What do you mean?”
“I know that the ministers often say, “Why don’t you get to be the Empress Dowager and look after your descendants when you turn 50?” That’s why I can’t introduce myself to them!”
“·················ogue.”
“You must have been worried that your power would be in jeopardy if you continued ignoring their requests, and if you put me as the empress, who has never revealed my face, right?”
A look of embarrassment appeared on Grade’s face.
It was an expression drawn because he had heard an absurd story, but it did not reflect that to Lissel.
“Is that correct?”
“No way! i am the emperor I can do everything as I please.”
“really?”
“·················ogue.”
“Do you really still think that way, decades later?”
Grade didn’t answer.
decades ago.
In those days, when the momentum was skyrocketing after defeating the Demon King, it was easy to swallow.
However, I can’t say that now, when I’ve bumped into the wall of reality countless times and it’s full of scars.
he got smaller
This harsh world made even the ‘Heroes’ weak.
Grade opened his mouth as if squeezing hard.
“I was thinking of you. You, who will be left alone after I leave…”
“I am not saying that the heart is a lie. But on the other hand, did you really not have this thought? I wonder how long I will be able to resist the demands of the ministers.”
“·················ogue.”
“I mean, I’ve been waiting. thirty years or so. The day I receive the ring from you!”
“Ressel….”
“It is now.”
She stood up with a tearful face.
Then he said while looking at Grade fiercely.
“It wasn’t that I was chosen by the spirits because I liked me. I didn’t become their king because I liked it.”
“·················ogue.”
“look at this. I’m a slave, so I can’t choose anything for myself. I couldn’t even choose whether to become the king of the spirits or not. So, I wanted to choose just one, as much as the man I love.”
“Ricell. wait!”
“The hero said he would turn me into a human.”
Those were the words after defeating the Demon King of Destruction.
By destroying the slavery system that saw people as livestock, he promised to turn Lissel into a human being.
Clearly, Grade kept his promise.
But Lissel did not become human.
Because she was the king of spirits.
“I’m sorry. I can’t be human.”
“Ricell. Wait a minute!”
“I hope you find a good matchmaker. And I wish you happiness as well.”
She started disappearing like a ghost.
Being chosen by the spirits, she could turn her body into a spirit whenever she wanted.
And humans don’t have the skills to find spirits.

Just like Maid and his party couldn’t find Lissel, who suddenly disappeared from an inn room 1,500 years later.That time when Maid and the party were listening to the story of Grade.
Lissel was tossing and turning in bed.
‘How did you find out? that person.’
Is it because I am an aspiring warrior after all?
Well, so was Kayle.
I remember the first time I met Kyle.
For 1,500 years, she turned herself into a spirit and was cut off from the world.
In the meantime, there were three more demon kings’ comings, and three warriors appeared and defeated them.
All of that was out of interest to Lissel.
because he is not human
There is no need to care what the human world is.
She heard a voice calling out to her, who had fallen into her consciousness.
“Magna Neros. No, is it better to call me Ressel Vint?”
Kyle Wake.
A man with red hair and a good face.
He spoke to himself, blinking his eyes.
“Before you say my name, I’ll say this first.”
“·················ogue.”
“I’m going to be a hero, and I want you to help me. Just like it did 1,500 years ago.”
“I beg your pardon?”
“Instead, if you defeat the Demon King, I will turn you into a human.”
– I’ll make you human.
The sentence I heard 1,500 years ago came out of the mouth of a man I had never met.
And it shook Lissel’s heart unbelievably even on its own.
‘okay. This time it will be possible. If it’s kale.’
But Lissel didn’t know.
The reason Cale recited that sentence was only because the official notice appeared in front of his eyes at that time.
＜Next quest. There is a huge tree in the middle of Seten Island, the southernmost part of the Empire.＞
＜Sing Magna Neros or Lissel Bint from that tree.＞
＜Welcome to Lissel Bint as your first ally.＞
＜Hint. She will be weak in the sentence ‘I’ll make you human.’＞
Grade’s past reminiscences and lamentations are over.
Hey, This hue. hmm read rental boyfriend and ov if u not yet did
My head was spinning like crazy.Richell loved Grade.
And 1,500 years later, I fell in love with Kayle.
But a child like Kayle was a man who dared to be compared to Grade.
[What do you mean?]
‘I was overlapping something. I’ve seen traces of grade from Kayle.’
If you just find out what it is… Maybe.
I cleared my mind and opened my mouth.
“Well sir. “Grade, you did a great job.”
“Does that sound like telling you to turn it off?”
“no. He told me to go away with caution.”
“👀”
Grade said with a low laugh.
“You seem to see me when I was young.”
“·················ogue.”
“Yeah, don’t go back. The 2nd Hero still seems to have a lot of worries and anxieties on the continent, but I can’t be that kind of an angel.”
He stretched out once more and said.
“I think I’ve done enough. Those who live in the present should deal with the latter to the best of their ability. There is nothing to see if you hold onto the crotch of a dead person and stretch it out.”
“It’s a sympathy.”
“For now, I wish you good luck.”
The spell on Ardwin’s arm shone.
Will this first hero answer the next Ardwin’s call?
As soon as I thought of that, I immediately wanted to say this.
“Grade.”
“ok?”
“Can I get you to meet Rissel? Through Ardwin’s necromancy.”
he said with a smirk.
“What are you going to do by making me meet 1500 years ago? My relationship with Lissel is over. I don’t want it, and she certainly will.”
“·················ogue.”
“More than anything else, you dare to be sympathetic. Damn junior.”
He left with those words.
I scratched my head.
For a while, the party remained silent.
But soon Xenia says.
“It’s really sad yet beautiful…”
“I think we can use this.”
“Wow. You wake up.”
“Listen everyone.”
Everyone’s eyes gathered.
“I think I know what the words to shake Lissel’s heart are.”
