Chapter 13 – Heroes Don’t Die That Way
“What? Are you using a sword?”
“Aren’t those skills better than you?”
I could hear people groaning behind me.
Even so, I didn’t pay attention to that voice and calmly slaughtered the goblins.
Of course, if I wanted to, I could have wiped out these goblins in an instant.
I was wasting my time dealing with the goblins, displaying only the level of my expected skills.
The skill I assumed was slightly higher than that of the Paladins.
“… You missed three.”
In the end, Genoa gave me that kind of evaluation after kicking out the goblins.
It wasn’t like he told me to catch all the goblins in the first place.
Even though I only did it because I was asked to show my skills, Genoa looked at me with a dissatisfied expression and evaluated me on its own.
“Isn’t this amazing in a state where you haven’t been properly trained?”
The saintess, on the other hand, was refusing to say such things with her eyes twinkling.
When he confirmed that I had much better skills than he expected, it seemed that he was drawing a rosy future at will.
“Ha, that’s childish.”
I looked at Genoa and muttered that in her low voice.
Perhaps there was something stabbed, I could see Genoa getting angry at my words of her.
“Is that what you mean to me? What do you mean?”
Genoa took off his hour hand and asked me that.
I shrugged her shoulders and looked at her men.
Simply counting the number of her subordinates was enough to explain it.
Belatedly noticing that some of her paladins were missing, the saintess shot at Genoa with an angry expression.
“Could it be that you did this?”
“…”
Genoa was unable to respond to her saintess’ words.
Even though I was a hero who was not properly recognized, deliberately playing a prank like this was definitely an act that crossed the line.
What’s more, the party even included a saint.
Even if the opponent was a weak goblin, it would be difficult to avoid being reprimanded.
“I will officially report this to the church. You know that.”
Genoa showed a puzzled expression at Marianne’s words of hers, but the saintess already had no intention of reversing her decision of hers.
“Do this.”
As I spoke to the saintess and Genoa, I gently loosened her shoulders.
“Isn’t the reason why I did such a childish thing because I’m not trustworthy after all? Then, check out my skills myself. Then, how about leaving this matter to the Buddha?”
The first to respond to my words was the saintess.
Naturally, having framed Genoa’s weakness of her, she would n’t want to miss this opportunity.
“What nonsense! This is the church’s job. Your business matters…”
“Is that what you did to target me? Isn’t it closer to my problem if I had to ask?”
As if there was nothing to refute, Marian bit her lip with a look of resentment.
Genoa, on the other hand, was just watching the situation quietly, as if she didn’t want to ruin the opportunity that came rolling in.
In an instant, Marian took her by the arm and headed for her wagon.
“Are you crazy? Doesn’t it sound like you’ve only caught a few goblins?”
Marian whispered in my ear with her excited face her.
Glancing at her elongated Genoa, it was an expression of trembling fear that she might hear her own voice her in her ears.
“You don’t know my skills yet, do you?”
“… The opponent is the commander of the Holy Knights. No matter how much I borrowed the power of my family, I got that position, but even that is only possible with some level of skill! I don’t know if you used your sword some time back home, but this is a fight without an answer.”
“… You talk a lot.”
I wiped her ears at the words of her saintess, her whispering in my ear like her rapid-fire gun and said that to her.
“No, it’s not that I’m talkative, you’re no match for that woman!”
Marian yelled out, as if she had given up on telling the story in secret.
She glanced back at her words, and looked back at her Genoa, and saw that she was trying to hide her laughter her.
He seems to be trying to manage his expression of her, fearing that I might get scared and change my words.
The saintess covered her mouth with an expression of surprise that she had made a loud noise herself, but she was already in a state where not only Genoa but also her her paladins had heard of her.
“I don’t know, but I don’t fight losing fights.”
“Crazy…!! Please listen.”
To my disgust, I stared blankly at the saintess who pretended to be worried about me.
I tried to be nice, but I was starting to get annoyed at her constant pretense of her.
“Why, why do you look like that?”
“Shut up and just listen to me. If you interfere, I’ll expose what happened that day at my house.”
I whispered that into her saintly ear her, and her effect her was enormous.
Marian just stared at me, her body her trembling with her white face her.
Her reaction was so great that even Genoa was interested in what was going on.
However, she cannot share her saintly weakness with Genoa.
I patted the saintess on the shoulder and began to show off her refreshing smile.
“I believe. A saint?”
“… That, yes You are the warrior from the oracle.”
Lie.
Marian’s eyes her were screaming in disbelief at all.
**
“I bet the hero won’t say something else later, right?”
Eventually, with the saintess’ connivance, Genoa decided to deal with me directly.
Of course, Genoa was laughing at me with an expression as if he had already won.
In fact, it was only natural for her to react that way.
The skills I showed in front of her were at most the level of paladins, and I couldn’t help but look like a child in the eyes of Genoa, the leader who led them.
I could clearly see that he probably thought he couldn’t lose even if he wanted to lose to me.
“Oh, don’t worry. I always keep my words once spoken.”
At my words, Genoa smiled contentedly and nodded her head.
Even though he made a mistake ahead of his emotions her at the moment, he did n’t even know that he thought that the stupid hero had helped him.
I looked at Genoa, who looked quite happy, and slowly opened her mouth.
“By the way, isn’t it kind of boring to just test my skills?”
“… What are you talking about now?”
Genoa frowned and glared at me.
After she spoke, her eyes seemed to ask if she was saying something else after less than a minute had passed.
I shrugged her shoulders at such Genoa and said.
“You get something, but I don’t? What would you like to bet on to balance it out?”
Words that our Balanced Goddess would clap and like when she hears them.
Genoa made a strange expression at my words and nodded his head.
She probably didn’t think about the possibility of losing herself as much as her nails her.
“Okay, what should I bet on?”
“… Well, I don’t want anything right now. Would you like me to grant you one wish?”
I sneakily threw her bait at Genoa.
And already armed with her confidence in her, she took the bait casually.
“Under? Wish. Okay. What’s not going to happen to you if you win? If you want my head, I’ll gladly give it to you.”
“Okay. Has everyone heard? There are plenty of witnesses, so I guess I don’t need to receive anything else.”
“You funny man. Do you really think you can beat me?”
Genoa also said that I would continue to win myself, and now she was dumbfounded and seemed to be getting a fever.
“Well, you’ll have to tell me if it’s long or short.”
I said that to her genoa and started aiming at her with her sword in her scabbard.
“What? Aren’t you going to pull out the sword?”
“You have to make a wish, but you can’t kill it, can you?”
At my words her, Genoa let out an unreasonable laugh.
“That’s why you’re a long way off.”
Sereung-.
Genoa said so to me as she drew her own sword.
So, she meant that she could control herself so that I wouldn’t get hurt while using the real sword.
I shrugged her shoulders and spread her flag toward Genoa.
Of course, that was nothing more than a fake pose I made up on the spot.
“It looks like he learned swordsmanship from someone.”
Genoa said so, and she slowly snapped her finger.
An attitude full of confidence to come in wherever you want to come in.
I smiled and copied her actions from her.
In an instant, I saw that Genoa’s expression her hardened coldly.
“By the way, it seems you haven’t learned manners, have you?”
Genoa said so, and with great speed she thrust her sword into my face.
The moment I lowered my head to avoid her sword and closed the gap into her arms her.
“Boy, you got caught.”
I could feel Genoa’s sword her wriggling in the air and cutting my arm her.
‘Look at this year? Did you just draw this?’
I glered at Genoa, feeling the burning pain in her forearm.
For an instant, I saw a smile on Genoa’s face her, like that of a child having fun plucking the wings of her dragonfly.
Genoa said that she could control her true sword her even if she used it herself, but it was clear that she would probably say that it was a mistake if the saint made a problem with it.
“As expected, I must have forgotten that I was a stone-headed bitch.”
I said that to Genoa, ignoring the pain in her arm.
For a moment, I saw her flustered expression her, but I didn’t give a chance and I raised her sword to her chin her and struck her.
Tight-.
With a light blow, I saw Genoa’s head fall behind her.
The wound on her arm was quite hot on her, but it was nothing compared to her refreshed stomach on her.
“I’m not going to die from something like this?”
The blood that flowed from her arm was already stopping.
The cuts from her sharp blade could be seen to be healing even in that moment.
Only then did the saintess and the paladins see fear welling up in their eyes.
It wasn’t just that his resilience was good, he seemed to have realized at least a little how terrifying it was to fight an undead opponent.
