Chapter 355 – Gaiden 4. Rick’s Voice.
The second hero of the continent, Lucky Rick.
His reputation as a warrior has already surpassed that of the 10th. Having received duties from the imperial palace and traveling all over the world, dealing with heretics and monsters, he was now nearing the age of forty.
Indeed, in such a position and such a reputation, he must have had several wives and many children, but he was still single.
He honestly had nothing to do with getting married. Where were the women clinging to him that he liked?
However, whenever he heard a voice revealing the other person’s true intentions, it wasn’t once or twice that he withdrew in fright, even though he had a crush on him. … No, most of them were.
All women are snobs.
Since Rick was so unconnected with women, some people wondered if he liked men, but in fact, he was treated the same whether he was a man or a woman. How many men are not snobs?
Honestly, I’d be lying if I said I wasn’t lonely. I often wondered if my voice would be a curse rather than a blessing to me.
– … Do you know who likes to do this?! I like freedom too!
“Then leave immediately. Don’t hang on to me like this. You are fed up with each other.”
– You damn bastard. A guy who doesn’t even know grace. … If you keep doing that, you’ll really leave.
“Go away, little! Now let’s go our separate ways, huh?”
In fact, it’s not uncommon for lucky guy Rick to fight with his voice like this.
But the voice had never left him. Not even once.
– … Do you really want to leave?
“Okay. I want to live as a normal person too. Do you know how painful it is for a criminal like me to know the other person’s feelings? I’d rather not know anything! You also!”
– … You don’t need me anymore
“I do not need. There is nothing I can do for you.”
The voice didn’t answer.
And after that fight, there was no word for quite some time.
Of course, Rick wasn’t at ease when he had bad things to say about the voice. … He knows better than anyone else that the voice has no malice.
“Hey, voice. Hey. … Upset? Sorry. Hey. I’m sorry. Let go of your anger and talk.”
But the voice didn’t answer.
“Sorry. I didn’t mean it. I guess it was because I was so lonely. … It’s the voice It’s a voice.”
A voice still unanswered.
For an instant, lucky man Rick’s heart sank.
“It’s a voice. I’m really sorry. Answer me, huh? It’s a voice!”
No matter how much I tried to soothe him, I couldn’t hear his voice. … It was only then that Rick realized that something was wrong. This was the first time the voice hadn’t spoken for so long. In the meantime, it had been half a day at the longest, but this time there was no reply even after a whole day.
… Ah…
“A voice! Voice! Hey! Come on? Really no? Are you really not there? Didn’t you leave? Right? Really, you didn’t leave, did you? … It’s the voice Voice, I’m sorry. I’m really sorry. Sorry. I’ll apologize. Don’t go. Huh? Don’t go, please.”
A voice that has always been by his side since he was born.
– Hi, kid. Don’t be surprised
– I will always be by your side.
– Even if the whole world turns against you, I’m always on your side.
A voice that gave infinite love without conditions.
“I guess I was crazy for a second. It’s the voice Sorry. Don’t go. It’s my fault. I won’t say that again. Huh? Come back. Please. … If even you disappear, I… , How do I live…”
Rick covered his face with both hands.
Once, the whole world turned its back on him, but the voice remained by his side.
– Don’t worry, I’m here.
To call such a voice a curse?
I’m crazy
I’m really crazy
“… It’s the voice Sorry. Come back please. Please. Without you, I can’t live you are my treasure It’s a blessing. It’s a voice…”
Rick sobbed.
Rick, who had never cried since growing up, cried out in despair at the lack of a voice.
It was such a great loss, and it felt like the world was collapsing.
… It feels like having your heart cut out.
“It’s a voice. It’s a voice…”
Rick, the lucky one, locked himself in his bedroom and wept like a child who had lost his mother. He seemed to be regretting why he had swarmed her mother.
“Sorry. Sorry. Come back. Please. Come back please. It’s the voice Sorry. It’s my fault. I, I was wrong…”
… However, the voice never returned.
· · ·
Allen, who heard the news that the lucky Rick has been crying in her bedroom for several days already, having completely stopped her food and drink. Some speculate that it was probably because he was broken hearted by the first woman he felt love for… , Allen didn’t think that he, who had gone through all the hardships, would be acting that way just for that reason.
Still, she was once a member of the Coalition, and Allen can’t stand still when he hears rumors like that from Rick, who is still a close ally of hers.
So the money ghost visited the lucky man’s hideout after a long time. Rick’s crew seemed to be looking forward to Allen’s appearance, as if a ray of light came down in the cramped situation.
“… Are the rumors true?”
“Yes that’s right. … I’m so embarrassed I can’t even go anywhere to talk.”
My supervisor has been screaming someone’s name and weaving for five days, not just a day or two. How can that not be embarrassing?
Arlen arrived in the bedroom of her old comrade Rick and knocked on her smartly.
– … You said you wanted to be alone.
“Grow. Rick. … You don’t intend to send her comrades back like this, do you?”
There was no answer from inside for a long time, then the door was carefully opened.
Then, an emaciated Rick came into sight.
“… Everything, my lord. Hey, how… ?”
Allen only glanced at Rick once, and she slipped into the bedroom without a word.
“Sorry. Right now, I don’t want to meet anyone…”
But at Allen’s next words, Rick’s eyes lit up like sparks.
“The voice is gone… Yes?”
ㅡㅡ!!
That, how-!
Rick, the lucky one, was startled and ran over to Allen, clutching the hem of his robe.
“Sweet Lord! The voice, the voice suddenly disappeared. It’s my fault. It’s my fault. I was in a bad mood for a moment, I said something bad, and then, really, my voice, really disappeared… !”
“You stupid bastard! Don’t you know how much my voice cares for you and cares for you? But do you say something like that?!”
Then,hee hee, Rick sobbed and begged for his mistake on his knees.
“That’s right, Nida. It’s my fault. Because I, I, stupid, foolish… ! I was wrong, my lord. So, please, please find your voice. I beg you like this. I’ll give you my all Even if you ask me to live as a slave for the rest of my life, I will do it. … So, please, find your voice… !”
Rick falls to the floor, crying again. Of course, there was no way to know where the voice that disappeared, called Allen, had gone. … I didn’t even know it could disappear in the first place.
“Did you really disappear? Didn’t you deliberately keep your voice quiet?”
“… It doesn’t sound like pretending it doesn’t exist. No matter how angry I was, I had never been silent for so long. … It really, really, seems like you left me…”
Allen stared at her weeping mess at her man’s ugly face, then she let out a deep sigh.
“For now, I’ll figure it out, so wash up and get ready as usual. … Ah, are you going to meet the voice like that?!”
“Can I really see you again?”
“I don’t know. Still, I’ll do my best.”
Then another crying face. Then he grabbed Allen’s crotch and stretched it out.
“Thank you. Thank you Thank you very much, lord. I will never forget this favor. Thank you thank you!”
“… Okay, so let it go. Oh, I have to move too, I’m not going to find it or not! And, I said it clearly. If you’re with this tail, you won’t tell me even if I find you!”
“All right. I will wash and prepare!”
So Allen left Rick’s bedroom. … A long time ago, she must have been just like this when she was kicked and kicked by a married woman.
Anyway.
He went to Elena, the most likely sucker. Her eyes widened at the sight of Allen, who suddenly came to her laboratory in broad daylight, then her eyes widened. I thought it was a signal to make a second one.
“Honey, what are you doing here… ♥”
The fact that the title is not Danju, but honey, means that the lower part is already prepared.
While doing so, she subtly pushed the top of her desk with her arms to create space for her to pose.
“Ah, I have some business.”
“… Here you go?”
The laundry woman sitting at the desk lifted my skirt and pulled her underwear aside, breaking my lewd parts. I am mistaken that the business is here.
“No, not that. … I mean Rick. Did you hear the rumor?”
Realizing that he had come for a real job, the sucker corrected his posture again.
“… Ah yes. Stuck in the room and won’t come out…”
“Actually, he has some special abilities. … What voice do you hear?”
“A voice?”
“A voice that only Rick can hear. Monua tracks with smell, and Odd-Nun sees the world with colors. It’s like that.”
“Ah.”
“They said the voice suddenly disappeared. … So, just in case, I wondered if the World Tree knew about it.”
If he didn’t know the world number, Allen had no choice. Because such spiritual things are not his field.
“… Wait a minute.”
Then, Elena summons the World Tree.
The air opened, and the branches of the World Tree gently wrapped around me, Allen, and Elena.
… Then, suddenly, a voice heard in Allen’s ears.
– Damn you.
… Hmm?
– Tease Rick in moderation. How I suffer because of you!
It was only then that Allen realized that this was the voice Rick was talking about.
“It is you. Voice is.”
– Oh, my head hurts. How many women are there! All I have is money and sex in my head! … That shit is perfect!
“That’s too much. I also saved the continent.”
– Joy. What is that about whether the continent perishes or not.
“Then wouldn’t Rick, who loves you so much to die, be safe?”
Then, a voice without an answer.
“… He said Rick made a lot of mistakes. I don’t know how it got out of there, but go back. It will never happen again.”
– … No. I’m not going this way.
“Don’t be stubborn. You miss Rick too.”
– I am… , Can’t relieve Rick’s loneliness. The fundamental thing is that it can’t be solved in the end.
“There is also spiritual love.”
– Humans don’t. Of all the humans I’ve seen, there’s not a single one like that.
Allen couldn’t deny that. He is the representative incarnation of lust.
“However… , How are you on the World Tree?”
– Because this guy becomes a vessel that can hold me. … I didn’t want to come, but what can I do? I have nowhere else to go but here.
Indeed, the mother of the earth, the world tree.
“Then, you just have to give Rick a good enough woman.”
– It’s a problem because there’s no such woman! It’s all snobs, snobs!
“There is no one in the world who is not a snob. Everyone wants to kick my pockets.”
– I won’t allow it!
“It’s tough… Rick is really, how he lived is clear to the eye.”
– What?!
“Okay okay. Because once I knew go back Be a bit stubborn too! You can fight a little while fighting for love, you mean you’ve been stuck with that until now?”
– … It’s not a love fight?!
“Anyway, go back. That’s when Rick really gets out of breath.”
However, the voice did not answer that it was returning.
“Why are you not saying anything? Are you going back? Are you going to continue living like a specter clinging to the World Tree?”
– You’re messing around. That’s a bit harsh! Anyway, I don’t like it.
“So, don’t mess with our lovely child and go to your house quickly.”
When I said “Lovely child” To the World Tree, his voice sounded familiar and grotesque.
– Whether it’s a child or a parent, they look exactly alike!
“Go quickly! … Rick also reflected a lot. Really. I’m seriously going to change. It’s the first time I’ve seen Rick like that. He’s still a true and good boy. You know that.”
– … Know.
Allen smiled lightly.
“Keep me warm. Without you, he really dies.”
– … I’ll go.
“Okay… It was fun. You two live well … Stop fighting again!”
– Joy.
And the voice is gone.
Ugh. Because they are both the same.
Elena, who was listening to the conversation, covered her mouth with her hand and gave a noble laugh.
“Oh my envy. The two of them are still green.”
“It’s pretty. It’s the main book. … Anyway, thank you for your help. Thanks to you, it ended easily.”
Then, the red-haired wizard laughs.
“… Are you going to leave like this?”
… And Allen went on a second crafting operation with Elena.
Lo Jeanne heard a groan resounding in the hallway, masturbated with the cock No. 7 while her ear was put on the door.
· · ·
Since the voice came back, Rick was back to normal.
He expressed his sincere gratitude to Allen for restoring her voice, and said that he would step in and help her whenever there was a request.
“Is your voice humming again?”
“Ah, haha…”
Rick scratches the back of his head with a smile that he can’t deny.
“Anyway, you two are fine. We can’t be without each other.”
“Yes… , Now I definitely felt it. All I need is a voice. … It is my love.”
“But, don’t talk like that to other people. Are you saying you’re crazy?”
“Haha, I can’t be so ignorant. Don’t worry.”
“They said it was because they had a broken heart before. A hero must have some humanity.”
“All right! Then, I’m off.”
“Okay.”
And after leaving Allen’s office, Rick headed to the magic workshop, not the hideout. … It seems that the sucker mage Elena has something to do with it.
“… An order?”
“Yes. Could you possibly make something to contain it?”
Then, Elena noticed something.
“It’s because of the voice.”
“… Yes, that’s right.”
“It’s a spirit.”
It wasn’t usually easy to create an artificial creature with a special anima. … Virtually forbidden territory.
However, Elena, who knew the relationship between the two, found it difficult to refuse.
“First, I’ll find out.”
“Thank you!”
So, Elena headed to the secret library underground.
She searched through hundreds of forbidden books there with magic.
With a small vibration, the scene where hundreds of books all come out and the bookshelves slide over is truly a spectacle that can only be seen here.
Meanwhile, she found something.
A book with a terrifying-looking cover flew in and landed on the table.
Elena flicked her finger and the book opened by itself and performed some magic. It’s a way to create objects that contain souls. … In fact, it is a method used to descend evil spirits, but she is for a good purpose.
I knew the method once, but I couldn’t easily put it into practice. Of course, you need to get permission from above. And Elena’s top priority is Allen Danju, whom she respects and loves.
“Put a soul into it and create a creature?”
“… Yes.”
“It looks a little dangerous.”
“I will completely follow the will of the Dan Lord.”
It’s not that I don’t feel sorry for Rick, but I still couldn’t put my selfishness into something like this.
Allen pondered a little, then she tapped her finger on some spot on the paper.
“Here, this. Nothing else matters, but this is the biggest problem.”
It is the price the soul desires for the descent.
“Ask Rick to come in.”
Soon after, Rick, who was waiting impatiently outside, came in.
“Yes, my lord. Did you call?”
“Rick. I’ll ask just one question. What the voice truly wants. Listen to it and judge it.”
Rick’s expression grew serious. And soon after hearing something, his expression changed from slightly surprised to slightly shy.
“… What did you say?”
“What I really want is… , Love… , Is.”
Redneck Mage Elena looked at Allen with a hearty smile. As if this was enough to make that heartfelt love come true.
“… I don’t know what the outcome will be. Anyone who has tried this magic isn’t here for now.”
It means that no matter what the outcome may be, do not resent it.
“… All right.”
In fact, Rick repeatedly held back his voice, saying that it was okay as it was, but the voice pushed it forward.
Thus, the creation of artificial creatures containing anima began in earnest.
To be honest, the wizards at the magic workshop were very interested in this new magic and immersed themselves in it. Opportunities like this are rare in a lifetime! They were excited like the old floaters.
After months of long work, they finally completed a soft object.
It was shaped like the dough you make before baking bread. It was placed in the middle of a very large and complex magic circle, complete with hundreds of mana orbs.
And lucky Rick, who is watching the whole process nervously from the edge.
“This is the last one. … Are you really okay?”
– Don’t worry. It will definitely be There are two people who opened the door. Can’t they do what even heretics do?
“But… !”
He was afraid that he might lose his voice again like before. … A life without a voice now, he could not imagine.
“Mr. Rick.”
After everything was ready, Elena called Rick’s name quietly.
And the voice that goes into that doughy round object.
Please, my god please. Please.
Rick didn’t want anything. He just prayed earnestly and prayed that only his voice would be safe.
“… Start.”
And the magic circle that is activated.
At the same time, an enormous amount of mana began pouring into the magic circle.
ㅡㅡㅡㅡㅡ!!!
It was a suction power, like a waterfall going into a huge hole.
Elena and Elizabeth were slightly nervous at the mana consumption that was far greater than expected. … Of course, I prepared a spare bead just in case, but it was likely that even that would not be enough in this state.
Dangerous.
If the magic circle stopped in the middle, I didn’t know what the result would be.
So, the man who opened the two doors and the rest of the wizards poured all their mana into it, but Mana Tong didn’t even think about it!
In the end, Elena called Granzo Danju. Since the people who opened the door are connected by spirit, she could summon him with will alone.
And Granzo Danju appeared at the moment of crisis.
“I did something.”
When even the fire-ghost Granzo Danju joined in, the wizards finally took their breath away. … And the magic circle that is gradually being completed.
Ah.
Allen, watching it from the side, witnessed a wonder.
A dough-like object began to wriggle, then gradually formed a certain shape.
After filling the magic circle circuit with all the mana, the dough was twisted very violently.
At first, this was something, it became limbs, fingers, toes, chest, and then the head.
Ah.
Rick prayed and prayed with his hands clasped together. Please let your voice be safe.
… And soon, the part presumed to be the mouth was torn apart, and a scream-like sound erupted.
“Ah, ah!”
“It’s a voice!”
She twitched and screamed a few more times.
Rick refrained from wanting to run to the voice at any moment. It’s a bigger problem if you interfere with magic in the middle and go wrong.
And soon the magic ended.
All the wizards who poured mana sighed in relief and sat down on the floor.
“Really… , Very… , It’s hard…”
Asmonde, who had a campfire, put mana into it by scraping it all the way to the bottom. Had she done that a little longer, she would have bled from her eyes, nose and mouth due to mana exhaustion.
The magic ended, but the figure lying flat in the middle did not move at all.
Ah.
Rick hurried over there and took her woman in his arms.
“Voice, can you hear me? Come to your senses. Are you okay? … It’s a voice!”
Rick was caressing the cheeks of her voice, with tears dripping like chicken droppings, when she suddenly coughed harshly.
Then she slowly opens her eyes.
… Ah…
It was such bright and beautiful green eyes.
“… Rick…”
“Are you mind? Are you okay? Body? Anything strange?”
She shook her limbs. Then I slowly raised my hand and gently caressed Rick’s cheek.
“This… , That’s a feeling… Rick’s cheek…”
Ah.
Rick hugged her voice.
“Love you. Love you. I really love you. Can’t be without you I am. If you go wrong, I was going to die with you.”
“Fool… Why die… I have to work harder and live…”
“Love you. It’s the voice love you. Love you. Really.”
The voice laughed happily.
“Me too.”
Rick.
Happy Ending.
