116 – 112. The milestone pointed by the full moon-4
“Eh! Tsk!”
Berne clicked his tongue in disappointment.
No matter how much I rummaged through the man’s belongings, I couldn’t find anything useful.
Ten gold coins, an old small crossbow, a flashworm capsule, and a mithril halberd.
At least the halberd would be worth the money, but it was cumbersome to carry around.
Above all, he was not in need of money.
The income Hades earned was quite good, and even his old age funds were not a problem.
‘But it’s embarrassing to leave it here.’
[Leaving the weapon that killed the wolf in the valley as it is is an insult to the surviving wolves.]
“Okay. Throwing it away is enough, isn’t it?”
Bern raised his halberd and aimed it towards the south where the magic tower was located.
Amman, even if his strength is outstanding, there’s no way he can reach the distant magic tower.
I just threw it with the hope that the mage tower would perish.
From noble mtl dot com.
“Processing done!”
[If the halberd you threw killed a poor person, how would you do that?]
“Oh, can that really happen?”
[You always…… !]
“Wait a minute, before you hear the nagging, I want to ask you something. Aren’t you a demonic sword?”
[What are you talking about?]
“Then shouldn’t I rather rejoice when someone gets hit and killed by my halberd? Even if it’s true that the holy sword criticizes me, you should defend my actions.”
[Uh… ?]
A demonic sword is a sword containing demons.
Prach was fundamentally a sword far from the words of divinity and justice.
[Illiga…… Is there?]
“Look at that.”
[That’s strange. Your actions are true actions, so why has this body scolded you all this time?]
“That I don’t know.”
The reason was simple.
Because he casually committed evil deeds that even the demonic sword would hate.
However, Prach, who had doubts about his identity, was just confused.
On the other hand, Chaos had twinkling eyes in the shadows.
Chaos decided to follow Bern for the rest of his life.
The sight of him panting while sticking out his tongue was cute enough to hit the hearts of dog lovers around the world.
“Anyway, I didn’t do anything wrong. Am I right?”
[Uh, hmm…. Is that so?]
“Okay then, this job ends here! Go back and call Marianne…”
“””Aww!”””
It was when Verne turned her steps to return to Marianne and the wolf cubs.
A wolf’s howl resounded from all directions.
Bern stopped in place and laughed incredulously.
“These guys are all over, so it’s a back book.”
Bern scratched the back of his head and raised his fighting spirit again.
He was the benefactor who saved the baby wolf, but given the circumstances, it wouldn’t be strange if they misunderstood that he was the culprit who killed the wolves.
He thought that he might have to subdue all the wolves with force, so he took a vigilant posture.
“It’s okay. They’re not against Mr. Bern.”
A soft voice came from behind him.
Recognizing that the owner of the voice was Marianne, Bern relaxed as usual.
At the same time, his fog lifted, revealing the sights around him.
The center of Bern was surrounded by dozens of wolves.
“They want to thank Mr. Vern.”
Marianne was slowly walking toward Bern.
She set the wolf cubs she was holding onto the floor.
The freed cubs kicked off the ground as hard as they could and went to the mother wolf.
Unfortunately, their parents were already cold corpses.
“Kiying…!”
Wolves cubs crying and licking corpses.
Bern, who was watching the scene, frowned.
It was the expression he made when there was something he didn’t like.
‘…… I told the manager of the Mage Tower to have s*x with a wolf in hell. Does this make me a pad lip?’
[Contractor, you are sure to fall into hell.]
[King! Even if it’s hell, I’ll follow you until the end!]
‘I don’t need it.’
[Ki-ing?!]
While disturbing conversations were going back and forth in Bern’s head.
Marianne gently embraced Bern’s arm.
“Don’t be too heartbroken. It’s not Mr. Verne’s fault.”
“…….?”
Why is he saying something obvious?
Berne was puzzled by Marianne’s actions.
But she didn’t bother to point it out.
She passed on, thinking that she was mistaken for her.
“Aww!”
Having accepted the death of their parents, the wolf cubs fell from the corpse and approached Bern.
The benefactor who not only saved them, but also avenged them.
They jumped and rode lightly on Vern’s shoulders.
Even though it was a baby, it looked quite dangerous because its body was bigger than a human’s shoulders.
Still, the wolves showed the wisdom of fixing their bodies by erecting their claws.
As soon as he found a sense of security, he eagerly started licking Bern’s cheeks.
[Things like those heavenly things… !]
[Z, calm down.]
All the shadows around them began to stir wildly, but when Vern glared at them out of the corner of their eyes, they instantly fell silent.
No matter how jealous I was, I didn’t want to be hated, so Chaos had no choice but to curl up temporarily.
“Ehh…! I think you guys are misunderstanding something.”
Bern carefully grabs the nape of the wolf cubs who were licking their cheeks.
He dragged her down from her own shoulders and carefully set it down on the ground.
Then, like a father admonishing him, he straightened his back and looked down at the wolves.
“I’m not suspicious enough to consider a wolf lick as a reward? I got the wrong number.”
“Kiwooung…”
“I know you want to repay me, but it’s not enough for you right now. So, get stronger later and repay the favor.”
“”Aww!””
To Bern’s bitter voice, the wolf cubs responded with high-pitched cries.
I couldn’t understand the wolf’s words, but Bern took it as an affirmation.
I lost my parents, but if I overcome the pain and grow up, I will definitely grow up.
Vern smiled happily and knelt down on one knee to level his eyes.
Then he stroked the cubs’ heads once, then brushed off his knees and stood up.
“Now, shall we postpone the return of the children and receive the sincerity of our elders from now on?”
Bern left the cubs behind and approached the other wolves.
The wolf, apparently the leader, slowly closed his eyes and turned his back.
It didn’t mean that he wouldn’t reciprocate, it meant that he should follow himself.
Bern smiled happily and followed the leader wolf with Marianne.
Meanwhile, the wolf cubs are watching Bern’s back as they move away.
The time when I was gazing at the existence I longed for, ecstatically.
Some mugwort and garlic were thrown in front of them.
“Oh?”
“Wow!”
The one who threw mugwort and garlic was none other than Chaos.
A Pomeranian peeking out from the shadows.
He spit out the garlic he was holding in his mouth and threw it at them.
Then he showed the victorious expression of a winner who had learned from seeing Bern.
‘You can’t follow Jjoo-in, but I can. If you twist it, why don’t you eat it and become a human?’
The chaos that conveyed that meaning with its expression went into the shadows again.
Even in front of the death of their parents, the wolf cubs felt fear, shock, and sadness rather than anger.
They were overcome with a sense of defeat and anger they had never felt before.
In this way, the battle of the beasts that Bern was unaware of began.
***
“What the hell is this… ?!”
A woman fell backwards.
While wandering in the mountains, she fell while trying to evade her halberd that suddenly flew by.
“Is it a surprise… No, since I can’t feel any presence, I guess it must have been shot from afar.”
From noble mtl dot com.
Thanks to her superior senses, the woman barely escaped her halberd.
Otherwise, one side of her precious black wings would surely be torn off.
She was satisfied that her life and body were preserved even though she fell unsightly on her back.
“The human continent is quite scary. I can’t sleep at all thinking that when and where such a heinous weapon might come from…….”
A woman brushing her butt off and standing up.
She grabbed her mithril halberd and crushed it with her hand.
She had that much strength, but the reason she couldn’t respond was that she couldn’t handle the speed of her halberd.
The woman thought she must have been thrown by a strongman and she turned her foot towards it.
Just in time, the moonlight was shining in the direction her halberd was flying.
Perhaps she was the culprit who killed the compatriots of the continent where she lived, so she had the mindset to meet her once.
The woman coolly left her seat.
‘It’s a really interesting continent.’
And where she left, her coolly yellow puddle remained.
In the world, she is also called a holy beast, but at least considering her identity, she could never be called a holy beast.
