106 – reunion_2
“Thank you for listening to me.”
As soon as I lowered my head, Odrox pushed my forehead back to its original position.
“There is no reason to reject it between comrades. Rather, I welcomed your offer. I also wanted to go on an adventure like you.”
You say very nice things. My conscience, which had only been filled with selfishness, was pricked, and I almost shed tears.
After O’Drox’s words, we had a few small talk and dispersed. There were still three days left, so it seemed like everyone was doing their own thing.
I should also meet and talk with Mirsen once and tell the cadets I know that I will be away for quite a long time.
..
“Yes? Where are you going? I want to go with you too!”
“It’s related to my family, are you okay?”
“Mr. Bandage’s family? The family that has been scouting for generations?”
Priersil speaks incomprehensible words.
Being a skirmisher for generations… that sounds terrible. Even if he had children later, he had no intention of making him a scout. However, I just said it as if it were true because I thought it would be comfortable to make up words in moderation for such a strange rumor to circulate.
“I got a call from my family. I have to come back and train separately. So I guess I’ll have to leave for a while.”
“Yes? Then the grades…”
“I can’t help it. All I have to do is tell the professors separately and avoid expulsion.”
Of course, I have no intention of going to the professors one by one.
If you are expelled for poor grades, it would be regrettable that you would miss out on things to enjoy at the academy.

No, I’m very sorry. After all, it would be better to avoid expulsion. Let’s talk a little bit about Lane.
I walked around and said hello to people I knew. He apologized to the elf for his words and actions that sounded like he was scratching his insides, said hello to the store owner, and exchanged greetings with the previous members, including butthole, wolf, and kid.
I also did it to the dark. I didn’t even pretend to hear my words with the back of my ear and avoided my eyes, so I did it unilaterally.
After talking with everyone I know, I headed to Mirsen. As soon as I approached the entrance of the inn, two upright guards blocked my path and asked for my identity.
I didn’t expect this, so when I was looking for an appropriate answer, Myrsene hurriedly came down and dragged my arm as if she had found a lost brother.
Are you okay with seeing the princess’ urgent gestures? I wanted to ask the guards, but I couldn’t say anything to give them room to return to their original positions as if nothing had happened.
I stopped thinking deeply at Mirsen’s gesture to have a quick talk while pulling my arm and followed her.
Before entering the room and closing the door, Mirsen carefully checked to see if anyone was around, and closed the door tightly.
It was a room with only one bed and no chairs, so of course it was fitting that Mirsen would sit on the bed and I would sit on the floor…
“Come and sit next to me.”
Unable to disobey the princess’s orders, Eoyoung and Buyeong sat down next to her.
Wouldn’t it be more comfortable to look straight ahead to have a conversation? I wanted to ask, but Mirsen, who actually spoke up, was staring straight at my side face without a hint of discomfort, telling me the information he had obtained.
“There are a total of four places that have been discovered so far.”
After thanking Mirsen for the kindness of speaking slowly so that I can understand, I took out my notebook and wrote down the information.
“By the way, don’t you act individually? Each of you has enough abilities. If you act separately, you’ll be able to solve it faster…”
Since they are aware that their problems are related to them, they thought that traveling together would help solve the problem.
Although it took a lot to weave the threat of the continent and my personal problems, I thought that if I reproduced the situation at the time and realized that it would be helpful to the party, things would get better. Of course, it’s not based on exact logic.
Anyway, I owe a lot to Mirsen. One person dragging the soldiers of the empire to use.
He must have nailed it, saying that it shouldn’t have been if Mirsen had a bit of a hard personality.
I am really very grateful. And since I also have a conscience, I had no intention of conveying my gratitude only in words.
I prepared a gift to express my gratitude for her flexible attitude. It’s not expensive, so I don’t know if Mirsen will be satisfied.
I took care of the owner of a clothing store in Hidin once again. Maybe he still felt sorry for trying to cheat the other day, so he lowered the price quite a bit.
Ring-shaped gold earrings that match the atmosphere of Mirsenne.
Of course, it was prepared with a defense enchantment, and it was confirmed that Myrsene had pierced her ears before, so there was no failure.
I didn’t have a vicious mind trying to pay off the debt I owed. People should give as much as they deserve. This is just the cornerstone of repaying the favor.
I was a little scared of the ‘debt I told you later’ that Mirsen said, so I never, absolutely did not intend to fart with it.
“The one I received from the princess is too big, so I prepared a small gift.”
“Yeah? Uh… what is it?”
Mirsen, who expressed her anticipation at the word gift, asked. If you expect too much, you will be disappointed.
I chose a slightly more expensive one to match my status as a princess. The accessories given to Rain, Solar, and Lian were neat without much decoration, but the one given to Mirsen was decorated with a lot of luxurious decorations.
I chose it after careful consideration, but I’m not sure if it will meet those expectations.
Wouldn’t you tell me that it’s okay even if you look at your sincerity? I don’t know, I took out the wrapped box and handed it over.
Mirsen seemed to hesitate a bit, opened the box, and lifted the earring.
“..earring..”
what. Is it a disappointment? Wouldn’t it have been better to break free and buy clothes? But isn’t this better than clothes? Clothes catch the eye, so if you really don’t like them, you just put them in a corner.
“Hero, do you know what it means to gift an earring to a member of the opposite sex in the Empire?”
..I have no way of knowing. I don’t even know what it meant when Hidin gave me an earring. Well, let’s just get along well in the future- wouldn’t that mean something like this?
“Forget what I just said. I was very satisfied. Thank you.”
“Thank you. Of course, I plan to pay off the debt properly later.”
I don’t know if it’s word of mouth, but I’m glad that you were satisfied with the outside.
Mirsen put the box in her bag and looked straight at me, probably not intending to wear earrings yet.
“I’ll cheer you on from behind. You must come alive.”
“They’re together, right? Even if you wanted to die, you wouldn’t be able to?”
With a smile that gave me maximum reassurance, I finished talking and left. I’ll have to check out the weapons and armor.

Even though no one has revealed that they have reunited, the entire continent, including Hidin, is agitated about the reunion of the first warriors.
It was natural. It’s because they’ve been scattered all over the continent and gathered together again.
For people, there was no more irritating gossip and worry than this.
Some people were trembling with anxiety. The fact that they gathered again was no different from sounding an alarm that something had happened on the continent.
As the chaotic atmosphere grew with the momentum to eat the continent, Lane stepped forward. It was to give a speech in a situation that attracted as many people as possible.
The people living near the academy gathered after seeing the flyers distributed by the first hero, chatting among themselves.
‘Is it really dangerous?’
‘Then where should we evacuate?’
‘I barely settled down, but I have to throw everything away and run away again?’
In the midst of chattering with their own anxiety, Rain appeared.
Looking at them from the balcony of the dean’s office.
Reign, who suppressed the agitation of the crowd with just his appearance, took one look at them and gestured toward the inside to call out to the party.
The eyes of some adventurers, mercenaries, and cadets are soaked in longing, and some people look blank.
The group of first warriors was such an existence. An existence that draws out various emotions just by its mere appearance.
Solar was positioned next to Rain. It was a positioning that seemed to say ‘equal to the rain guard-on’ without taking a single step back.
Odrox was about two paces behind them, but because of his enormous size, it seemed as if he was standing next to them.
Ryan was located a little further away from them. Even so, the benevolent atmosphere of the saintess was not hidden and warmly illuminated the surroundings.
Strong people with different personalities gathered in one place. Hundreds of people stare at them.
Rain guard-on opened his mouth with a posture and voice that did not seem to be shaken.
“Everyone. We ran away once.”
A voice filled with power and magic that overwhelms the crowd spreads to the end of the crowd.
Even though he didn’t raise his voice, people’s attention is focused on one person, Rain.
“Because I didn’t have the confidence to complete this task perfectly, I ran away from the Demon Realm without being able to complete the annihilation of demons.”
Even though she acknowledged her failure, no one blamed or cursed her.
Make sure to read from noble mtl com
No, I was listening to her without even thinking about opening my mouth.
Because you are an invited warrior. Because he is the one who defeated the demon king.
‘Let’s listen to the end at least once.’ That’s Rain’s voice that makes even those who have been twisted by the judges think that way.
“We relieved the fatigue and pressure accumulated in our bodies while doing our own work. Once again, we will not make excuses to fulfill the mission given to us.”
Lane lowered her head slightly and closed her eyes.
“To prevent a crisis that could happen because of us, we are going on an adventure again. In the process, the bad guys may attack us, targeting our vacancy. However, I hope you will understand. We ask for your mercy so that we can root out the crisis.”
She opened her closed eyes and scanned the crowd once more.
Except for some whispers, it was nothing but silence.
And her unusual vision caught the figure of a bandaged man at the edge of the crowd.
Even though he is a member of the group, he is surrounded by many people here, and they are hiding in the crowd, like a shadow.
I feel like I’m going to disappear somewhere again, I’m afraid I’m going to hide myself.
Lane almost reached out to him without realizing it.
“lane.”
Rain’s hand, which was about to climb onto Solar’s horse, stopped.
“So… is the continent dangerous now or not?”
“Are you saying you ran away? Even though you had the title of first hero?”
“What will you do when chaos arrives, like during the Great Invasion?”
“What about us now? Do we have to run away again and start over?”
Question and question overlap each other, creating a noise that you can’t seem to catch if you listen.
The agitation gradually inflates in size and begins to cover the entire city beyond the academy.
“quiet.”
Odrox said.
The hall became quiet as soon as the warrior, who was unmatched in the continent as well as in the Pandemonium, spoke with a sense of intimidation and strength.
“I will take the title of the first warrior and put my name to the end of everything before the continent is in danger.”
Lane answered everyone’s questions with just one sentence.
While admitting that the first warriors will be reunited.
