Chapter 149 – Side Story) the Birth of a Hero
I felt death.
It is simply the ‘breath’ exuded by a being of such a different dimension that mere humans cannot reach it.
When I saw the breath exhaled by the once great ‘dragon’, even if it had already died, with destructive power equivalent to the destruction magic unleashed by dozens of high-ranking wizards.
I thought I was going to die like this.
Unlike me, he moved.
Wow, he hugged my body.
And I could see it.
“Amy, fuck.”
The man in front of me, who was swearing and surrounded by golden armor.
“Chrrrr all I thought to myself when I saw the man wrapped in golden light.
Like.
It’s like a hero from a fairy tale.
“Fuck, really.”
The words he uttered did not seem like a hero, even if we looked at them in a positive way.
Still.
Wow!
Of a man embracing me with both arms.
Kang Han-jo… Of a man with that name, whom I thought was strange and suspicious.
The desire to survive that burns like a fire in the exposed eyes.
The ‘desire’ to live is so vivid that it can be recognized just by looking at it, shining so intensely.
“Ah.”
Somehow, I thought it was cool.
When I opened my eyes, he was nowhere to be seen.
Instead.
“Hoaah.”
Little fox.
No, there was just a kid with a fox-like tail and ears guarding my side.
The little fox beastman, who looked like I’d seen him somewhere before, but was black and had only a single strand of golden hair, looked at me like that and started talking to me.
“…Are you asking if I’m okay?”
“Hoa.”
I guess I was right.
However, she had no idea why this little boy was left alone in a place like this by her side.
And then.
“Tap, tap!”
“Tad-dak…!”
I saw a group of skeleton soldiers approaching.
“Danger…”
When I saw those skeleton soldiers, I took out the wand I had hidden in my chest and tried to chant magic.
“Hoa.”
The little fox beast clicks his tongue and snaps his fingers.
Grumbling…!
In an instant, I couldn’t help but open my mouth when I saw the kid burning down the dozens of skeleton soldiers that were flocking in.
Perhaps it is witchcraft.
A special ability from another world that specializes in something different from magic.
However, its power was at the same level as hellfire, the greatest destructive magic it could use.
Something like that…
I couldn’t help but be shocked to see the little beastman just snapping her fingers without chanting or at least the magic trick known to help her.
Even though he was the one who drew five circles on his heart at the age of 20 and was called a ‘genius’.
He couldn’t help but be surprised at the fact that a little boy who was less than half his age was so far above him.
And, only then was I able to see it.
Lots of ashes around.
Could it be that these were all skeleton soldiers?
When I was thinking that.
“Hoa.”
“Are you telling me to wake up?”
“Hoa.”
Seeing the little beastman nodding his head, he straightened up.
“Hoaah.”
“…Hand?”
Another nod.
Let’s hold the kid’s hand tightly, and the kid walks away with strides.
I followed that kid as if he were protecting me.
No, it was actually protected.
“Hoa.”
“Hoaah.”
“Ho!”
Because he was a kid who could burn all the skeleton soldiers he occasionally encountered, as well as the skeleton knights that were much higher than him, with just a wave of his hand.
Looking at the kid who didn’t seem tired even after using that level of magic, I couldn’t help but feel a sense of wonder.
Although the spells used so far were only guesses since it was a completely different system from magic.
Even so, it is clear that a significant amount of mana was used.
It’s not like the dragon heart was in his body, but it was pouring out so it was natural.
Even.
“Hoa!”
If there are one or two of them, they won’t even use them and will just rush over and tear apart skeleton soldiers and even knights with their claws.
It was clear that this kid had great achievements not only in magic, but also in martial arts and martial arts.
“…No way.”
A familiar, familiar look.
Most of his hair was black, but he still had golden hair visible through the black hair, just like him.
“…No way, could it be… Cheonho’s…”
A delusional thought crossed my mind that he might be a child or a hidden disciple.
But that couldn’t be possible.
Not only had I never heard of Cheonho and Hoaran having children, but there was also no talk of them taking on disciples.
“…No, I’ve heard of it before.”
Although it was soon buried.
At one time, a rumor spread that Cheonho Hoa-ran appeared on a street and suddenly offered someone to become his disciple.
However, the person involved in the rumor at that time was clearly a man.
“…”
Sigh, I said.
With golden armor.
A man wrapped in armor resembling a fox flashed through his mind.
“No way…”
“Hoa!”
However, those hopeful thoughts had to be interrupted by the kid pulling my hand.
“Hoaa!”
And, where the kid pointed with his finger, people from the Kingdom of Narmaire could be seen.
When I joined the people of the Kingdom of Narmer and met figures and dispensers from other world governments who were protected there.
I looked for him among them, but he was nowhere to be seen.
“How…”
No way, what happened?
However, it was difficult to sustain such thoughts for long.
ㅡKooooo!
A bone dragon trying to breathe again and a huge beast attacking the bone dragon.
And, as I swallowed the bone dragon in one go, I saw the beasts bursting and falling, and the warriors of the Kingdom of Narmer who were dealing with the pouring skeleton soldiers and knights.
I was left gaping at the series of big events that happened so quickly.
When I couldn’t help but just watch something that I couldn’t even intervene in, he appeared.
Bang…!
The first sight of him running and soaring through the sky, wearing golden armor.
And.
The sight of a falling person from the Kingdom of Narmer being held and falling straight to the ground.
“Ah.”
That place.
This is a place where skeleton soldiers and knights are already pouring in.
I couldn’t help but sigh when I saw him fall into the middle of that place.
However, I could not step forward to help him.
Not only do I not have the strength to do that.
“Pharaoh’s divine power…!”
“Stay where you are! Pharaoh is safe!”
“Stop the dead!”
Somehow, the people of the Kingdom of Narmer, who were blocking the influx of skeleton soldiers and knights, were also confused by the rapidly changing situation.
Even more so, I couldn’t even bring up the story of having to go rescue him through the skeleton soldiers and knights that started pouring in as if they were targeting this moment.
“…Hoa.”
With a sound like “Wow!”
I saw the kid holding my hand tightly and gritting his teeth.
“If.”
When I tried to say to that kid, “If it were you,”
I saw the kid sighing and squeezing my hand tightly.
And let go.
“Hoaah.”
And, to help the people of the Kingdom of Narmer, flames rose towards the pouring skeleton soldiers and knights.
As if after much thought, he decided to keep his position.
I couldn’t ask the little prisoner if I could go help him.
Just.
“…I hope you’re safe.”
I had no choice but to pray like that.
And, that wish came true.
Wearing black, pitch-black armor.
Because I saw him coming down to the ground holding a woman covered in wounds.
“I need to do you a favor.”
And, while saying that and leaving the woman to the people of Narmer Kingdom, he took something out of her arms and put it in her mouth, and then he fired things at random towards the skeleton soldiers and knights who were still pouring in.
Skeleton soldiers and knights swept away and disappeared in an instant.
I could not keep my mouth shut due to the overwhelming and shocking power.
Really, I wondered if the person I thought was a little strange and the person I saw now were the same person.
I tried to talk to him like that.
“…Then, I’ll come back.”
I saw him saying that to the woman he was carrying back, and her complexion seemed to have improved a little, as if her wounds had healed because of something he had given her.
“It’s a promise.”
“Yes.”
I could see him speaking in a very warm voice, as if he was having a chat with his lover.
“…”
What is this feeling?
Suddenly, his heart throbbed and his heart ached.
And even more so when he soon remembered the identity of the woman he had been talking to.
The great warrior of the Narmer Kingdom.
Did you say Karura?
Even when I first saw him, he was the person I thought was such a pretty person.
I couldn’t help but think that they were a pair that looked good together.
“…Hoa.”
Next to me, I saw a kid sighing for some reason.
When I suddenly wondered if it was a sigh.
Bang!
He flew up again.
Just like that, I thought as I saw him flying towards the place where the palace of the Kingdom of Narmer was located.
A person who stands up and fights even in times of crisis.
A person who saves people, saves people, and fights for people.
I knew what to call such a person.
“Hero…”
After he left, it wasn’t long before the situation ended in an instant.
The skeleton soldiers and knights pouring out of the open door in the sky were no longer summoned.
The skeleton soldiers and knights that had already been summoned from beneath the ground, who were attacking the living, soon began to fall.
It was only a guess, but I knew that all of this was something he had done.
Well, this happened not long after he left, so I couldn’t help but think that way.
But…
I couldn’t see him again.
Even after the situation calmed down to some extent, even after a long time had passed, he was nowhere to be found.
Today is the next day after the sudden attack ended.
After the festival that started suddenly ended, the pharaoh of the Kingdom of Narmer declares to hold another festival.
No, I was able to see him with the dazzlingly beautiful Pharaoh.
After all, what he did was right.
When you think so.
Pharaoh shouted.
“A festival for the heroes who protected you and your country, this kingdom of Narmer, and you. And…!”
Pharaoh said that and looked back at him.
Something in the way she looked at him made her heart tingle again.
And.
Soon, I found out why.
“Lord, hold a festival for the mate of my cute Karura, the greatest warrior in the Kingdom of Narmer!”
Because I saw the Pharaoh shouting and proclaiming that on a large scale and publicly.
His embarrassed expression was visible here too.
But even for a moment.
The Pharaoh hugged him tightly, and he was seen hugging a woman named Karura in his arms.
“Ah…”
“…Hoaaa.”
Tap, tap.
The kid tapped my shoulder.
“…Are you comforting me?”
“Hoa.”
A kid shaking his head.
“…You’re not saying I comforted you?”
“Hoa.”
I found the kid who nodded yes to me a bit annoying.
