Chapter 1025 – What Is the Right Heart?
“-Isn’t it actually the thief who took away the hero’s reputation?”
Why did the family heads at the time accept thieves as members?
No matter how much it was, it was not the generation of progenitors who shared joys and sorrows, but two generations. Why did the other teenage families just watch it?
I don’t know the details.
However. Gold was convinced.
As soon as Gold finished speaking… Gald made a face full of emotion.
He trembled.
“You…”
“…”
“You have no clear evidence…”
“…”
“That, that… That…”
Drip.
He said as tears streamed down the fat man’s face.
“Did you find out the truth?”
“…Ah.”
Gold closed his eyes tightly.
Messed up
It feels like the sky and the earth are collapsing and plummeting endlessly.
Took.
He was leaning against the wall without me knowing.
Gald approached him who was barely standing on the wall.
“It’s gold.”
“…”
After stroking his son’s face, shocked by the truth, the father put his hand on his shoulder and patted him on the shoulder.
“As expected, you are a hero. You are a hero!”
“…”
“Among all the family heads, you’re the only one who reached that truth on your own. Wahahahahahaha.”
“Father.”
Gold held back his pounding head and opened his mouth.
“Then, Madora Ariatatsu…”
“Yes. Everything according to your thoughts. Dre-sama thought that she was Brave, or that she was Gingamin. But she is Thunder.”
“…!!”
“How did you know that? How could you not know? The moment I heard her name. The Goryu Ryu Narga. I felt the artifact wanting to return to her.”
Most of the abilities Gald talked about earlier were almost true.
I just changed Thunder, who can recognize the bloodline of a hero, to Brave.
Gold swallowed.
“You want to go back…?”
“I never thought there would be survivors in Thunder, but yes. Pryunar’s power is mysterious and deep. I could understand it at once just by hearing his name. It was a power I did not know.”
Gold blinked his eyes and said in a determined voice.
“Father.”
“Hmm.”
“You have to give it back.”
“Can not be done.”
Gald answers with a firm voice to a firm voice.
“Father…!!”
“After you give me your name back? What do you mean after that?”
“We have to make amends for the theft.”
The family called Thunder must be rebuilt and revived.
It is to resurrect the long-forgotten lineage of real heroes.
That is…
“Is it Dori?”
“…!!”
“Son. My proud, clever, stupid, frustrating son.”
Gald made a very sad expression.
“If we reveal the truth. What will happen to us after that?”
“…The foundation is shaken. It must be at stake.”
The reason why the Hart family has been able to exert a great influence from the beginning to the present is that it is a ‘hero’s lineage’.
Also. Although potential rivals, there were other teenage families that could cooperate in times of need.
Giving up the hero’s name meant giving up all its advantages…
“There’s more. All those who have a grudge against the Hart family will want this opportunity and bite them.”
Hart’s rise to global commerce has earned him a great deal of resentment.
A cause is an important thing.
If Heart, who has been treated as a descendant of a hero for ten thousand years, is in fact just a thief, how good is that to bite?
It is a bonus that it cannot receive public support at all.
The Hart family, which has grown in ten thousand years, will not go to extinction, but it will become very small.
It will be very shabby compared to its heyday.
But did they say that even if a rich man goes bankrupt, it will last for three years?
Gold vomited an enthusiastic voice to convince his father.
“As long as it doesn’t fail at all, I can always start again!! Again. I, this son… I want to be proud.”
Puch.
Before Gold’s words were finished. A sound like wind escaping leaked from Gald.
To Gold, who opened her eyes wide, Gald spoke with a voice mixed with laughter.
“You mean to say that we want to be proud, that we should eat well and live well, and that we don’t know the livelihood of the millions of employees who follow us?”
“…That…!!”
As Gald said.
Hart will still be a big family even if the facts are revealed, but will be forced to face a situation where they will have no choice but to reduce the number of people on a large scale.
“You might feel contempt for saying this after dealing with loyal knights with my own hands, but yes. I did it with my own heart in mind.”
Now Gald’s voice contained genuine concerns for their livelihood.
Also. Gold couldn’t protest because it was mixed with self-help for killing his subordinate for his subordinate’s sake.
“And son. You. Do you want to reveal the secret that our ancestors desperately kept. To be proud of your heart?”
“…!!”
“Do you mean to admit that our Heart family, which has been highly respected, is actually just a bunch of despicable thieves who stole the name of a hero…?”
Gold was speechless, and Gald shook his head.
“I can’t. I absolutely can’t.”
“But, Father…!! What’s the use of killing even the family who followed us to keep the secret…?! Above all, the secret will be revealed someday!”
I said someday, but maybe. This time Perhaps it will be revealed in the near future.
Because Dre is there.
It is no coincidence that rumors have spread recently.
Dre will get to the answer soon.
No. Maybe you’ve already reached It could be that he was ignoring it for a while thinking about his relationship with the Hart family.
And in time, Dre…
Like the time of Count Serton, like the time of the crime syndicate of Silver River, like the time of the Calzabog Empire. I will break everything and enforce righteousness.
Anxiety welled up in Gold’s heart.
“Yes. I would have admitted that we were mean thieves, even if I was afraid of Lord Dre, if it had not been for ‘Possibility’.”
Possibility? Gold puzzled.
Gal de took his hand off Gold’s shoulder.
“How much do you know about Dre-sama?”
“It is just and cannot pass by injustice.”
Gald thought the evaluation was a bit ambiguous, but he nodded his head thinking that the conclusion was the same.
“Yes. By the way. He is a very eccentric and heterogeneous person.”
“…”
“You know that? I used Dre-sama’s fame to start a business with favorable conditions for the castle or empire.”
“…! You mean without saying anything to my older brother?”
Gald nodded and smiled.
“Why? Do you think Dre-sama will be angry?”
“No… Isn’t that obvious?”
But Gold soon denied his words in his heart.
“Yes. A normal person would be angry if he used his fame without his knowledge, and he would want to get something out of it. But Master Dre is different.”
Gald closed his eyes.
“Dre-sama wouldn’t care at all if I started a business in his own name, as long as it wasn’t absurd and evil, and if it didn’t harm him. For some reason, you know?”
“…”
“Because I’m not interested in ‘that stuff’.”
Heavy sound.
Gold swallowed a gulp and Gald laughed, saying it was a joke.
“He may not be materialistic, but the real reason is that he looks favorably on our Hart family. I tried to keep the line. On the contrary, Dre-nim was also strictly keeping the line for our Hart family.”
That’s why Gald followed him without saying anything.
Because he was a being who could benefit and lead them.
“But Madora Ariatatsu. This situation, that she is the true descendant of a hero, is different from usual.”
“It’s different…?”
“Lord Dre doesn’t seem to be aware of her. He cares for her like her own daughter.”
Gold was dazed for a moment before speaking.
“Brother…”
“He says he doesn’t like marriage or kids, but the way I see it, he doesn’t really hate it. There are other reasons. But now, that doesn’t matter, son.”
Up until now, Dre had liked the Hart family, so even if the Hart family crossed the line a bit, he looked after them or sided with them.
But. If you knew that Heart was a thief who stole the hero’s bloodline. Even if you know that the stolen target is your favorite Madora…?
What kind of choice will he make, who likes both the Heart family and Mado?
“He will destroy the House of Hart without hesitation. He will be able to throw away anything he holds dear.”
There was a silence heavy as lead, and Gold managed to open her mouth.
“I guess, it’s…”
“Guess? Haha!! A sane human tortured all the nobles of Sers! You mean he brutally killed that many humans in the empire? The emperor and prince of Calzabog are still suffering half-dead!! , No. Any human! You can’t do that!! Criminals like us can’t predict his actions!!”
Gold couldn’t say anything.
Although he denied it with his mouth, it was because he sympathized with Gald’s words.
Dre is, so to speak, an impartial judge.
Whether the opponent is evil or a hero, the wrong things are eliminated.
“Recent rumors about killing the Heart family in order to look good in the Holy Land. This is bullshit. In the end, it’s true. Anyway, he’ll try to get rid of the Heart family completely.”
“That can’t be the case. He is. My older brother…”
“A bloody brotherhood relationship can be severed at any time.”
Gald said coldly.
“Above all. Even if Lord Dre cares for you so much and takes care of the Hart family, he has no choice but to get rid of us. Do you know why?”
“…”
“He’s a special stranger among strangers. That’s why he’s on a special quest.”
“Quest…?”
A word that strangers use to say like a habit.
Gold was puzzled by the story of the concept he only vaguely knew.
“Brave knew all the quests that the teenage families were involved in. We, who had a close relationship with them, were also able to hear about some of the quests. And among those quests, there is a quest called ‘Correct the lie’.”
Correct the lie…?
Gold’s complexion turned pale.
“From my point of view, Dre-sama’s purpose now is to complete all the quests related to the teenage family and obtain a certain reward. For that purpose, it is essential to destroy the Hart family and rebuild Thunder… Now you understand ?”
Dre has no choice but to destroy the Hart family both emotionally and practically.
“I’m sure he will reach Brave’s personal library one day. Haha. What our ancestors did, written in Brave’s library. If we find out what he did by deceiving and exterminating the natives who were descendants of Thunder, and covering up the fact. He who is cruelly fair will annihilate our Hart family.”
Perhaps it’s not a distant story, but right now, he might want to get rid of the Heart family from the quest, Gald said in a messy way.
Gold hung his head.
I wasn’t sure that Dre wouldn’t.
What can a human being who has destroyed the world’s criminal organizations, devils, and empires for the sake of justice, what can’t be done?
“…Father…”
“It’s gold. But. There is hope.”
Gald is hot. Clenched his fist
“There is a way for us to officially maintain the heroic name!! And to be recognized and feed all those who follow us!! The way for us to become the real ‘Thunder’!! The way to correct the lies and become the real thing! !”
“…?!”
Keeping your name on the subject of stealing and getting recognized…?
Gold was dumbfounded and at the same time felt a contradiction in his heart.
“This is also what I heard from Brave. If it hadn’t been for that method. When the last headquarters threatened us with our secrets. I would have revealed everything to Dre-sama and waited for his disposition.”
“Hope…?”
Chuck. Gald’s finger pointed at Gold.
“It’s you, son.”
“…!!”
“Dirty thief. You are the only one in my family who was just a sneaky and mean trader who really reacts to the artifact and unique Ryunar!!!”
Gold unknowingly gripped the ring tightly.
Gald entrusted the artifact to Gold for a long time.
Gold thought Gald could summon the artifact whenever he wanted, so he gave it in a symbolic sense.
But… Did it mean something else?
Gald said to the wavering-eyed Gold.
“We have to proceed as quickly as possible. Otherwise, Madora will become a hero.”
What are you talking about? Holding onto Gold’s staggering hand, Gald let out a voice full of longing.
“Son. Inherit the lightning.”
His eyes were burning.
“Seriously. To inherit a hero.”
***
Desolation.
Mullin, who was sitting next to me, let out a pain in the bone.
“So, drink a little bit…”
“You bastard. What the hell did you show me?”
You see. Mullin must have understood what we were talking about.
“The one sitting next to me on her own is the sister.”
“Ah-san…”
Mullin, who was about to hit me with a bottle, stopped and gulped down.
And gave it to me
I… Took it naturally and drank it in one gulp.
The degree is high.
I’m hot inside.
At that time. Frostia-sama is great! He screamed, and at the same time, Smado’s notification sounded twice.
“Ah!! It’s not an indirect kiss!!”
As I stroked her and healed her, I checked the content of her texts.
One is Madora.
One was a member of the main store where I gave Smado the other day.
[Madorang- Grandma said it’s okay to come anytime!]
[Head office executives- Mr. Dre. Sir Julis has something to say about ‘succession’.]
I repeated one word.
Succession.
