In commemoration of becoming a companion – 2
Neryl opened her mouth as she ripped open my face.
“Come.”
“You must come. It is an invitation from a colleague who will be with us in the future.”
“Ugh. little boy How old do I look?”
Outwardly I looked like I was only in my early twenties, but I put my real age in my mouth.
“I think it’s been 200 years since the Witch of Grief appeared in history.”
“yes. right. He honed his magic for 200 years. To be honest, if I say that I studied hard for 200 years, my conscience pricks me… But where will those years go?”
“……”
“How old are you?”
“After all, what Are you trying to tell me not to be cocky because you are stronger?”
Neryl said again and again with a serious expression without a hint of playfulness.
“That’s right. Maid Mohan.”
“……”
“I like you quite a bit.”
“……”
“Please don’t make me change my mind.”
Five.

Just like in the tool store a while ago, the atmosphere was starting to get heavier.A feeling of some invisible energy pressing down on your body.
It felt like I had doubled my weight.
I slowly and carefully distanced myself from Neryl.
“Grey said it was postpaid. If you stay with us for 7 years, we will pay you in arrears.”
“Are you asking me to leave Gray living happily ever after for 7 years?”
“I don’t intend to make them live happily ever after… What the hell do you think Gray has? What did he do to you?”
“He killed the child I love.”
dear child?
Oh, the old man in the graveyard?
I felt uncomfortable for a moment that Neryl, who seemed in his twenties, called the old man a ‘child’, but considering his real age, it’s fair to say that.
I said.
“It was Gray. I mean, once upon a time, I went to rob the Erenika family and killed an old man.”
“I heard a lot.”
“If it’s the Erenika family, it’s an extinct great aristocrat. What’s the deal with you?”
“You don’t need to know that. What you need to know is that the grandfather was the last butler of the Erenika family. He is one of the loyalists who has been guarding the tombs of families that have already collapsed 200 years ago.”
“……”
“My grandfather had no children. So the butler’s family was on the verge of dying out. It will probably be completely cut off in a few years.”
“……”
“But that doesn’t mean a garbage robber can cut it with his own hands.”
I still don’t know what secrets lie between Neryl and House Erenika.
If I raise the level of the eyes of my battery…
[Why are those the eyes of your omniscience?]
You’ll find out if you raise it, but it’s still a long way off.
Then Neryl said.
“Hand over Gray right now. This is the last thing I say.”
“……”
“Did you say you want to become a hero? You can do anything with words. In fact, you can become a hero and even save the continent.”
“……”
“I’m sorry, but I don’t know too much about you yet. So, rather than trusting your words and spending 7 years together, I’m thinking of taking over Gray by force now.”
“It won’t happen.”
That was when I answered.
Whoa!
At the very least, he would have been shouting in a dignified manner.
I reflexively bent my knees.
I can see the blades of the wind flying a centimeter above my head.
A wind cutter that Neril used to use even before his return.
There were tens of thousands of monsters who fell down with a single whip like a fan.
Whoops! uh uh
I could hear the ginkgo tree behind me cut cleanly and fall over.
Whoops.
Neryl pointed his hand at me and said.
“The sword of immortality never accepts murder quests, right? It’s amazing to be a super mercenary even after putting such a stupid penalty on yourself. But it won’t work for me.”
“I don’t think so.”
“Let’s do it, kid.”
Whoops.
The surroundings become a sea of fire.
It must have been early winter, but my body was as hot as midsummer daytime.
I ran, stepping, finding exactly where Neryl’s flames did not reach.
It’s hard to use my body for a long time.
‘I didn’t know because I never really fought with a party member, but this guy was no joke.’
[Can you win?]
‘If you’re going to kill me, that’s fine.’
[I’m not going to kill you.]
‘So that’s the problem. I didn’t know Neryl could be so strong. The Demon King of Lies received such magic with his whole body.’
Paradoxically, I was able to realize just how strong the demon lord was when I became the person being targeted.
There was even enough room to play the ‘play’ of temporary death.
Even if I became a hero, would I really be able to kill him?
[side!]
‘Kuguk!’
🤩🤩🤩
Then blood spurted from my side.
I hurriedly blocked it with my palm and sprinted backwards.
After more than 20 steps apart, he applied a special potion purchased from the guild on his side.
“It’s a great potion. It will be expensive.”
“Pay back later.”
“You wrote it, so why would you pay it back to me?”
“What does it mean to be a good colleague? From now on, yours will be mine, and mine will be mine.”
“I know it’s a waste of time, but I’ll get caught. I want to talk to you a little more.”
Neryl folded her arms.
“I’ve lived for a long time, but it’s the first time I’ve seen someone like you. If you are born with such a talent, you can say, ‘You can’t be called a hero.’ I don’t even think about it.”
“……”
“By the way, the heroes and the heroes who work with them are different from us. You would know if you read the history books too. They are the ones who split mountains and cause tsunamis with one swing of their sword.”
“It’s an exaggeration.”
Come and see for yourself and you will know.
Neryl burst out laughing.
“How are you so sure?”
“I think you are already at the level of a hero. If it wasn’t for me, I would have been aiming for a hero, but it’s a pity.”
“A arrogance backed by ability can be wrapped in dignifiedness. nice to see Such confidence.”
“……”
“But if you say that, you don’t think you’re a hero, do you? You are being attacked by me, who is only a hero.”
I have no choice but to defeat that guy.
I can’t. to use technology
The trail went the other way.
[If there is, write it immediately.]
‘It’s been a while since I’ve done this, so I couldn’t get the timing right.’
[Whew. what kind of technique Do you have a name?]
Of course.
‘Run fast.’
[……]
‘why.’
[No, why is even the technology name like that? I’ve known since the time I was talking about transparency!]
‘I don’t even need to shout out the technical name during battle, but what about the name? And honestly, I built it after thinking about it for two days.’
[A poem like this…]
I stopped paying attention to him because it seemed like he was trying to spit out abusive language.
And I started to focus my strength on my legs.
simplicity and honesty. Bad Duck.
I can feel my muscles wriggling under my clothes.
The veins rose and there was a small convulsion.
“Are you ready for something?”
Neril quickly noticed and opened his arms.
And in an instant, something begins to form.
I know that hand gesture.
It must be the magic of the earth.
taat!
Numerous muddy arms stretched out around me.
But before they caught me, I jumped off the ground.
“uh?”
whistle. widely.
Twist in the air and get back into position.
Then I lowered the scabbard down and used it as my footstool.
great. can write
“huh.”
Neril began to prepare the greatest magic ever.
But it was already too late by the time we prepared it ‘now’.
‘Run fast!’
[Oh, please.]
taah!
Before Neril’s last beneficiary, I had already reached her five steps.
The dilation of Neril’s pupils is vividly seen.
She hurriedly hit the back of her right hand with her left hand.
I know that too.
A low-level lightning bolt.
Of course, it’s low-level, but if the caster was a witch of wretchedness, ordinary people wouldn’t even be able to scream and it would be burnt in an instant.
‘What do we do?’
I thought a lot about the moment that was less than 0.1 second.
Before that spell is fully activated, I must be able to drive a sword into her heart. I am confident that
But then.
“shit.”
I swung the dagger down the track.
Thanks to that, the magic was triggered in time.
pooh. Cheeky!
The dagger plunged deep into Neril’s abdomen.
And the magic hit me hard on the back.
“Wow!”
“Big.”
Something smells like cooked meat.
He gently raises his head and looks up at Neril.
Her eyes were trembling more than this.
“why? Why did you change the trajectory?”
“……”
“Obviously you were aiming for the heart. You could have killed me before my magic.”
“At the time to say something like that… Treat yourself first. It would be painful if you stab it pretty deep.”
She laughed as she bled.
“Are you worried? You’re all skinned now.”
“I’m finer than you.”
“I don’t think so.”
Every time he opened his mouth, something smoky came out.
“Surrender. Neryl.”
“…that’s stupid! that i won I can kill you right now.”
“Surrender.”
“Originally, you were winning. If only it pierced my heart.”
“madam. say that later To be honest, I’m going to get sick too, so surrender quickly.”
“……”
tell me quickly
I’m pretty nervous about it. Madame.
If it’s a little late, there’s no answer even with my expensive potion.
pounding.
The sound of my heart pounded my eardrums.
After eons of time had passed, Neril slowly opened his mouth.
“I lost.”
“Then you’ve been working together for 7 years?”
“……”
“Don’t come here and say you’ve changed your mind.”
Neryl asked with a sigh.
“Are you really going to leave Gray alone? 7 years is long. In the meantime, he would have completely disappeared from the continent.”
“That’s something I had in mind.”
“huh. What do you think?”
“It really is. Well, if you don’t believe me, just wait a few days.”
“yes?”
I smiled and opened my mouth.
“I’m going to give you a present as a commemoration of becoming a colleague.”
a few days later.
Thanks to generously releasing the high-quality potions I had been saving to use when I was about to die, Neryl and I were resurrected neatly.
It’s a lot of money, but it’s not really a problem. Because Neryl paid for it all.
“Can I really pay for everything? I have to pay half of it, right?”
“done. Why did you come here again?”
We were standing in front of Gray’s Tool Shop.
“You said I’m going to give you a present to commemorate my friendship.”
“……”
“Let’s go in.”
Gray was still wriggling like an earthworm on the basement floor.
Drinks were provided from time to time during my stay here, but I probably couldn’t eat for about a week.
He was playing in the water with his feet slightly wet in the Red Bee River, the river heading to hell.
I released Gray’s gag.
“Ugh. No, get something to drink…”
“ruler.”
I poured water from the canteen like last time.
I can feel Neryl shooting from behind with a displeased face.
Gray drank water greedily and looked up at me.
“I can’t feel my arm, my arm.”
“……”
“Now I can’t even fix it even if the high priest comes. this arm. uh huh.”
“Do not cry.”
“Ahhhh!”
“Or will you even cry in hell?”
“no. sorry.”
The boy stopped crying like a lie.
I grabbed the guy by the neck and got him up.
“Do you still have enough energy to walk? If you don’t have it, squeeze it out. I have a place to go with you.”
“Hell, please.”
“It’s hell. I said ‘together’ with you.”
I whispered in his ear.
“You will go to hell later on your own.”
The guy trembles.
tuk.
Gray staggered as he patted his back.
I grabbed the rope that tied him like a shackle and walked together.
Neryl asked, following me.
“Where are you taking me?”
“You were worried. I can’t see Gray being happy for 7 years, what if this guy hides in 7 years, etc.”
“By the way?”
I spoke in a light tone.
“To leave it to a place where you can never be happy and never hide.”
