Chapter 533 – The Hero’s Memories
“Mr. Kitz.”
Mari cautiously called out Kitz’s name.
I called several times already, but he didn’t respond.
“It’s a big deal.”
Homun narrowed his eyes.
“Has our hero ever slept so soundly?”
“Kaitz doesn’t even snore.”
Rapband growled.
Mari, who read her extraordinary affection for Kitsu in her eyes, groaned…
“What. Subjugation of demons. You investigated the recent movements of the demons, read the human situation, and made plans for the future.”
You must be tired. Garcinido tried to bring a blanket while whispering to wake him up, but the scholar stopped him.
“The blanket is done. You’ll hate it.”
“…Hmm.”
Homun and Garcinido, unlike Scholars and Rabband, did not receive all memories.
…No. In fact, not even the three of them know all of their memories.
We only know roughly how things will go.
Still, they knew much better about Kitz’s mannerisms.
For some reason, he sometimes hated having someone cover him when he was asleep.
“All right.”
Garcinido, who respected his colleague’s judgment, put down a blanket that was much smaller than his body.
“…Really, it’s been a long time since this man fell asleep so soundly…”
When the scholar blinked his eyes, Rabband asked.
“By the way, where’s Dre? Didn’t Kitz tell you to come?”
“He said he went to the palace.”
“The royal palace~ Anyway, he has a lot of work here and there.”
A grinning rap band.
“The hero’s sword didn’t come even though I called for a meeting…”
Garcinido’s grumbling.
The scholar thought that Dre was more of a meaning to Kitz than a subordinate, but he was not foolish enough to say that.
Seeing Kitz, who has been sleeping deeply for the first time in a while, waiting for him to wake up.
As soon as he thought that, Kitz flashed and opened his eyes.
“Hero. Did you cough?”
Chuck. Garcinido solemnly bowing his head in a posture of attire.
Katz looked around and looked around, then spoke in a low voice.
“…Eight days… Haven’t come yet.”
While the other warriors’ party watched Kitz, he quietly closed his eyes.
“Anyway… It’s something I have to explain while everyone is around… So I’ll close my eyes.”
“Hmm?”
Homun caught his eye, and Mari brought the blanket even though she was flustered.
“Cover and sleep. Warrior.”
“…Okay.”
I hate blankets.
Because it’s so comfy
And, because it reminds me of that time.
Katz fell asleep once again.
And, she had a dream.
A long time ago.
Regression over and over again… All those times back, back to the very beginning.
***
Even in a peaceful world where there is no persecution by monsters, an ordinary town that looks like a picture.
I was good at anything
Whether it was running, arm wrestling, or spinning top, I was always number one among the kids.
He was popular because of his handsome face and bright personality.
In the past, I would have been a bit embarrassed if I said this myself, but now I can freely and objectively tell the truth.
By the way, it’s been a long time dream.
He seemed to be in a deep sleep.
To think that I would see the young me again, smiling so brightly, hanging out with the children, following me, and sincerely telling me that I was a warrior.
Me as a child who knew nothing and had hopes for the future.
Not Kaitsu Hiro, but Kaitsu Hope.
I remember the people I dated at this time clearly.
Evans, who lived next door. Glenn, who raised a dog and often went to play. The precocious Erin, who sat shyly next to me and asked me to put flowers in her hair.
Etc. Remember all children, adults.
They were people I hung out with for a short time when I was young, but I couldn’t forget them because they were the faces I see every time I go back.
No, thanks to the authority of the ‘God of Record’, I can’t forget it even if I want to.
I look at them indifferently.
As my regression repeats, these die several times as well.
Most of it was due to the invasion of the demons, but there were also many cases where I was killed by soldiers or subordinates from other countries who had a bad relationship with me.
I’m not sorry.
I was too dry to feel that way.
Close up close up
The sound of horses hooves was heard.
Well, that’s it soon.
A majestic carriage and several white horses leading it run from afar.
“Oh! Horses! Horses!!”
I run towards the horses instead of playing soccer.
And the boys who follow me without complaint.
We laughed ahahahaha and followed the horse.
There was no way the children could follow the horse, but they were just excited.
And unexpectedly, we were able to see the white paladins riding white horses and the owner of the wagon they guarded.
The center of an ordinary town.
The owner of the carriage that got off there was a priest with an arrogant expression in a white robe.
His priestly robe was engraved with the patterns of the holy kingdom of Narnia and the main god, Nanar.
He used diffusion magic and spoke loudly for the whole town to hear.
“Heaven! Gwangshin-nim’s revelation has come down!!”
Even when I was young, I roughly understood what he meant, but it didn’t matter to me that he was a fanatic and a god.
As a mischievous person, I was more interested in how loud my voice was.
So, I was very shocked by what happened after this.
The priest continued to speak.
“A warrior who will bring this chaotic world to rest! An oracle has come down to send a warrior of light to our holy kingdom, Narnia!!”
The scope of the trust is children as young as 12 years old.
They said that a hero would emerge from among the children, and I was 12 years old.
The Holy Kingdom of Narnia was looking for warriors not only in its territory, but also in a wide range of neighboring countries, allies, and friendly countries.
But I couldn’t find it anywhere.
In the end, it came to the point that even from the small border country of Jiichin Kingdom, they came to the remote village of Purha.
“If you have a 12-year-old child, please get proof! We will reward those who cooperate!”
I got in line faster than anyone else.
At this time, I had no parents.
There were no relatives either. So I didn’t even need permission.
I was living on the property my parents gave me.
A young boy who lives by relying on the wisdom of his parents who thoroughly protected my property by magic.
At this time, I didn’t feel like a warrior or anything.
A product that will be given only if you give it to your cooperation. I was just blinded by things like ice cream and sweets.
The name of the warrior was out of my interest.
I’ll have to share it with Erin or Evans. I guess that’s what I was thinking.
Of course, even from the priest’s point of view, I and the village’s outlandish children would have been out of interest.
The selection that has already happened for close to a year.
He must have lived a comfortable life in the center, and he was tired and did something without a promise for a year.
As a member of the Holy Kingdom, he had faith in God, but a somewhat corrupt priest follows practicality rather than faith.
From his point of view, he must have thought that the snarky little boy who just came running after playing soccer could not be a hero.
In fact, the selection method was also rough.
When summoning the pillar of light, there were useless procedures such as having to walk reverently while the priests of the surrounding kingdoms kneeled, but I ordered them to omit them.
Then, I walked into the pillar of light summoned for selection…
Aaaaa!!!!
Pillars of light that seemed to cover the world split the sky and poured down.
Waves of light rippled and spread across the world, and the priests, who had been knocked on their butts in surprise, prostrated themselves in front of me.
The priest who was standing there, his face brightened in an instant, and he knelt down in front of me.
“Hero!!”
“Hero!!”
“Our gwangsinnim’s warrior!!”
Okay.
This is my first memory of being a hero.
After that, I usually skipped this process, so I didn’t see much…
I don’t miss it.
There was a slope in the village.
Narnia, the Holy Kingdom, gave the village of Pruha, where I lived, a grandiose name, ‘The Town of Beginnings,’ and took me to Messane, the capital of the Holy Kingdom.
As I cried and waved to the children chasing me to say goodbye and see me again, I felt a very brief sadness and a thrilling anticipation for the future.
Haha. As expected, a warrior. He is very bold, unlike his age…!”
The priest who looked at me like a bug tried to make friends with me by rubbing his hands.
I didn’t know anything about human relationships, so I shrugged my shoulders at the words that cheered me up with excitement.
And, we arrived at the holy kingdom.
The pope and cardinals surrounded me and bestowed blessings and blessings on me.
Now he will acquire the attitude and strength befitting a hero, and will receive a holy mission.
I clenched my fists saying I would do my best in anything.
In the eyes of high-ranking people who looked like a squirrel, I must have looked just as cute as I seemed to be able to listen.
And after that… It was a day with nothing to explain.
Most of them met people who wanted to see my face as a warrior at least once.
The time to meet and say hello to high-ranking officials… Even at that time, I was just as happy.
Everyone liked me, liked me, and complimented me, so I liked them too.
Seongguk gave me the best instructors.
Fence. Spearmanship. Magic. Sex law. Sorceress…
Fortunately, I had a talent.
He was so talented that others praised him as a warrior and followed him.
Quickly absorbing anything, at the age of 14 I was already stronger than any knight in the Holy Kingdom.
All I need now is performance.
Although she was fulfilling her role as a face madam for external use, there were constant voices of doubt as to whether she really deserved to be a warrior because she hadn’t done anything in practice.
Then one day, an assignment fell on me.
Subjugating the angry monsters harassing Mincho… A light mission that makes me laugh when I think about it now.
Ever since I came to Seongguk, whenever I encountered voices or eyes that doubted me, I burned with enthusiasm with the mindset of asking where to look.
But at the time, I was trembling like a child.
It was the first time he had seen a monster in person, and it was the first time he had to kill a creature.
The day before the expedition, I covered myself with a blanket and tried to sleep.
And, I had a dream.
“Don’t doubt it.”
A bright human figure.
I instinctively recognized who he was.
That’s right, in the code of laws we always see, and in the pictures drawn by the followers… The god of light. Because he was what he was.
“Are you Nanar?!”
“That’s right. He’s my chosen warrior.”
“Wow…!”
Nanar stroked my hair.
With that disgusting hand.
“Kits. Are you shaking?”
“…Ah, no!”
“Come on. You don’t have to lie to me.”
Swish Swish. Patting my hair, Nanar spoke kindly.
“It’s natural to be afraid. But, Kitz, don’t forget. The light is always with you.”
“…!”
“Fear but don’t hesitate, I will watch over you, and you will exude the dignity of a warrior.”
“Majesty…”
“Yes. There will be no evil that can stand in your way. My hero Kaitsu Hope, no. Kaitsu Hiro.”
And I woke up from a dream
Indeed, in my awakened body, the power of light and divine power were overflowing several times more than before.
One night miracle.
Before the expedition, people also looked at me with admiration, saying that God had taken care of me.
Besides, the surname Hiro spread because of the revelation, and from this time on, it became Hiro, not Hope.
I had no more hesitation.
The god, the main god, personally certified that I was chosen.
What would be the reason for hesitation?
The morning of the day of the expedition was bright.
As if the trembling from the previous day had gone, I was bravely commanding monks, paladins, and priests.
And… There was an encounter that made me turn into a shy cat.
“Hero.”
“Ah. Bishop.”
The priest who brought me had become a cardinal.
He said with a servile laugh and a friendly laugh at the same time.
“One more person has been added to today’s expedition.”
“Hey. Who is it?”
“Haha. He’s the youngest cardinal ever.”
The youngest cardinal.
Of course I know.
She was also a candidate for sainthood.
Okay…
Eight days, meeting her god training… Did she say that she would never forget her?
She’d never forget meeting her, her guy had said in her memory.
Me too.
For me, this meeting is an unforgettable one… A very regretful, painful memory.
“Hey, nice to meet you.”
“…!”
An angel with neatly tied blonde hair and a modest outfit.
Okay. She was an angel
“My name is Marie. From now on, I will be assisting the hero by your side.”
“…”
Seeing me with a blank face, I unknowingly wiggled my fingers.
I had the urge to strangle that stupid, pathetic scumbag.
Ah.
It’s a dream.
Do you want to show me until that day?
