Chapter 24 – Decision
Therefore, the core concealment equipment, commonly known as concealment equipment, given by Leonard was very useful equipment to Jun.
“How did you get it? It wouldn’t have been easy to get it.”
Jun knew right away the usefulness of concealment equipment.
Because of this, he tried to save him in every way possible through Lawrence, but even though a considerable amount of time had passed, he had not been able to save him until now.
In fact, the cloaking equipment was not only useful for Jun.
If the core is stopped in order to hide the core, the superpower cannot be used at all, and in addition, most superpowers use concealment equipment in such cases because they feel a severe sense of loss.
In particular, it was an essential item for adventurers who had to move secretly in the labyrinth without the monsters noticing.
“I didn’t buy it. “I got it from a treasure chest in the labyrinth a long time ago.”
“Uh, so you were using it? Do you mind if I give it to you like this? It must be an item filled with memories.”
“I’m not old enough to not remember that yet. And there are many other things that can bring back memories.”
Leonard says that with a cool expression.
Since he really didn’t seem to have any regrets, Jun didn’t hesitate anymore and put on his concealment equipment, or rather his silver bracelet, on his left wrist.
“Keep in mind that it is not a panacea. If you use the ability beyond a certain level, the concealment will be lifted immediately.”
“I’ll keep that in mind.”
Jun nodded that he understood, but he couldn’t help but ask again if he was really okay.
This is because I belatedly remembered the value of the concealment equipment.
“It’s perfect. “There is no need to ask for it back later.”
“Don’t worry, it won’t happen. “Because it is not just a gift, but an apology from an idiot who failed to properly fulfill his assigned role and a means of self-defense for self-satisfaction.”
It is an apology and a means of masturbation for self-satisfaction.
Leonard seems to think this attack was his fault.
Well, to be honest, it wasn’t wrong.
Jun’s discovery of the village chief’s corruption was entirely at Leonard’s request,
Jun’s actions were revealed to the outside world by Leonard, or more accurately, by an orphan who stole his words, but the ultimate cause was him.
If he is a very responsible person, he must be feeling a great deal of guilt because of that, so he may be trying to alleviate some of that guilt by protecting Jun differently, even if it is belated.
“And…”
“Is there still a reason?”
“There are probably many children who feel deprived because of you. So, wear the bracelet at all times and don’t say that you have a new core or use the new core in front of other kids.”
“Uh… That’s a bit tricky. So where should I go to train to handle the new core? “You have to practice your weapon skills while reading books, but you can’t bring books from the playroom outside.”
Jun shook his head as if he was troubled.
Then Leonard scratched his chin as if he was equally troubled.
Then, as if a good idea occurred to him, his face brightened, and he said.
“Ask Robin to train you. Wouldn’t that be better than training alone?”
“It’s good, but will you really listen to it?”
Robin’s occupation is a hunter.
She had to climb the mountain every day to hunt wild animals to make a living.
Well, his skills were so good that he had some spare time, but there was no reason to use that spare time to train Jun.
Can I learn proper weapon skills from him in the first place?
He had no intention of disparaging hunters, but if he was going to learn from someone else, he wanted to learn from someone who actually handles weapons, like the village vigilantes.
“Anyway, Robin said he has a favor to ask of you, so if you listen to it, he will be happy to train you. Additionally, if you ask me for a favor and show a little sincerity, I will teach you some advanced techniques as well.”
A little sincerity? Are you talking about money?
I would be willing to pay if I could learn an advanced skill, but does Robin really have that skill?
“Robin’s skills seem questionable.”
“To be honest, yes. “I’ve only heard that it’s great, but I’ve never seen it hunted in person.”
Jun nodded honestly.
Since ancient times, he had to consider the recommendations of his acquaintances.
If you blindly believe something just because an acquaintance recommended it, you are likely to regret it.
So, hurry up and bring out information that I can understand.
As Jun’s eyes sparkled as if he was saying that, Leonard smiled and opened his mouth.
“Although he was overshadowed because I settled here first, Robin was also an adventurer known in Remumuni. He knew how to use several weapons, and when he wasn’t exploring the labyrinth, he was employed by the guild and worked as a trainer. Thanks to that, he knows quite a few of the advanced technologies stored in the guild.”
“Oh!”
The talent I was looking for was right nearby!
Jun thought that the proverb ‘It is dark under the lamp’ meant times like this.
“How do you feel? Shall I ask you a favor?”
“Yes!”
Jun smiled brightly and nodded her head willingly.
Leonard also nodded, sighing in relief as if the problem had been solved.
“Then I’ll go to Robin to tell him this news, so you can just eat breakfast.”
“I understand.”
When June nodded once again, Leonard gently stroked his head and turned his back.
Just as he was about to take a step forward, Leonard suddenly trembled as if he remembered something and quickly turned back to look around.
“Boss?”
“June. Where did Fortuna go?”
“Uh… I was bored sitting still, so I went for a walk.”
“You’re sure, right?”
Although he was embarrassed on the inside, Jun nodded with a puzzled expression as if asking why.
Then Leonard looked around once again, brought his face close to him, and whispered carefully.
“June, has Fortuna ever told you that her breasts or between her legs hurt, and she asked you to touch them?”
‘… Have you been caught as expected?’
It didn’t really seem like that.
If he had found out that he and Fortuna were having an affair, he would have been stern and scolded him right away.
The behavior he is showing himself now is not scolding someone who should be scolded.
‘It seems like they are trying to protect victims of sexual violence.’
He seemed to be making a ridiculous mistake.
Is not it? Is it any weirder to think that a 10-year-old did that?
I don’t know what’s right, but Jun shook his head and said he never said no.
But Leonard didn’t seem to believe it.
“Really? Have you really never done that?”
Rather, it seemed to only increase distrust and anger towards someone.
“Yes, none. Really.”
“… I get it. “If that’s you, then that’s probably it.”
Leonard patting his shoulder affectionately.
But the eyes were still burning brightly.
It’s a deb show that doesn’t seem to make sense at all.
“Jun, if Fortuna asks you to touch that area like I said earlier, don’t touch it at all.”
“Why? “I heard it hurts.”
“If that’s the case, she’s not sick there. My head hurts. So, if Fortuna is sick, don’t just take care of it yourself, but come find me, okay?”
Seeing Leonard’s expression so serious, June just nodded her head without saying anything.
Fortuna, who was in a spirit state, was going crazy, but he ignored it as if he couldn’t see anything.
I can’t see it.
I can’t see the angel’s soul stained with shame.
――――――――
After eating all the breakfast Leonard brought, June headed to the well to wash his body.
In order to protect someone’s dignity and prevent further mishaps from occurring, the female scent emanating from his body had to be removed as quickly as possible.
As he was walking down the street, he felt his head getting wet and heard a sad cry. He smiled vaguely and spoke to the fairy who was lying down on his head.
“Por, stop getting angry. Huh?”
“… Shut up. “Don’t talk to me.”
“I heard there was nothing I could do at that time.”
“Don’t talk to me! Nothing like me, nothing like me!”
Jun hurriedly covered his ears.
Then, the scream of a fairy was heard.
“Because it’s a pervert fairy who tricks innocent children into playing with their hands! Phew!~”
“… Cheer up.”
Jun thought and pondered until he finally uttered a word.
And that was it.
He tried to use his superpowers of thought to the limit, but he couldn’t come up with anything good.
It’s not that they didn’t come to mind at all, but none of them were able to properly comfort the virtual Fortuna in Jun’s mind, leading to a bad ending.
“Hey, profit! Phew!~”
Fortuna tries to say something, but her emotions become so intense that she can’t speak and starts sobbing again.
No matter how much comfort she said, her feelings would only get worse and not get better.
Jun left her to cry and continued walking.
‘As expected, there is no one here.’
The church was now in the midst of cleaning up the dust that had accumulated last night.
Naturally, restrooms and washrooms where water was available would be crowded with children looking for water to clean.
Jun, who likes quiet, didn’t necessarily want to wash himself in a place like that.
‘Tsk, what kind of person cleans like that every day.’
There may not be a lot of dust accumulated last night, but sincerity and cleanliness are said to be the church’s policies to foster consistency, so I have no choice but to follow them.
If you don’t obey, they won’t give you food and tell you to leave the house. How can you not obey?
‘Well, I’m an exception today.’
Jun laughed heartily and put up a screen around the well.
Then, I hurriedly washed my body just in case someone came.
Traces of pure white fluid remaining on her head and upper body were swept away by the water.
Tsk! The owner of the white turbid liquid could be heard clicking his tongue.
“Phor, it really seems pervert.”
“What, what! What did I do!”
“They mark their territory with breast milk, and they get angry when I erase the territory mark? “If this isn’t pervert, what is?”
“…”
Fortuna couldn’t open her mouth even though her face was bright red.
Even if you think about it, it seems like you think your behavior is very pervert.
“More than that, why don’t you wash Por? It will stink.”
“… I’m fine. “I washed my body using purification.”
“Why didn’t you write it to me?”
“…”
“… He’s a real pervert.”
Fortuna could not deny it.
