I’m Not a Hero Like You
Chapter 2
1. I was born at the wrong time. (2)
-Ding! ding! tying!
“… … .”
pluck the lute
The heart of the Empire, where the sun has fallen and is immersed in darkness. It was very still.
dense population.
As if to prove this, the densely populated residential area.
Even a small cry from within will soon reach the other side.
Therefore, if you blindly plucked the strings of an instrument like this.
Whether it’s a report from somewhere or the interest of an unspecified number of people, it’s obvious that it will be interfered with.
Still, there are shelters and parks in the city center.
It is located inside the park and hides itself with trees as a barrier.
It wasn’t that difficult.
“Is this sound okay?”
When I ask the empty space, an appropriate answer comes back.
It’s a voice that can’t be heard normally, but it’s probably a signal.

Vaguely know
“Whoa.”
take a deep breath.
It’s important to keep your composure.
If you don’t correct your mind, your stomach will tighten and you’ll be short of breath.
The body quickly gets tired, and the mind instantly becomes clouded.
It is not a big deal that your concentration is simply relaxed and your mind and body become complicated.
Worst of all, the consciousness plummets into the abyss of despair.
Negative thoughts, once you think about it and start to be obsessed with it, spread endlessly.
“Whoa!”
pluck the strings
I have no intention of playing anything.
Not yet.
Just plucking, plucking, plucking, plucking again and again… .
It is only at the moment when even the thought of being immersed in something fades and you forget yourself.
Finally, I play a song that I am familiar with.
Sound doesn’t spread.
Because I took measures so that the sound of the performance would not spread.
It’s not magic.
I don’t have any talent for that.
“… … .”
And then, with your head empty, you’re playing all the time.
Soon, the pitch-black sky slowly begins to lighten.
The group of stars that were embroidered in the heapuk are gone.
Even the dazzling full moon is slowly disappearing.
“… It’s too late to sleep.”
I know I’ll regret it, but I can’t sleep.
No, I can’t sleep.
Then tomorrow comes.
Fear of tomorrow’s approach.
A day to start anew.
All of that binds the body like a curse, like a noose.
Moreover, tomorrow is the day when a celebration party is held at Hwangseong.
As a child of a hero and a saint, it was not a place I could easily fall into even if I wanted to.
Unless there is a good reason.
‘I mean justification.’
A life entangled in politics since childhood.
In that sense, I see my life as politically over.
A stuffed insect-like existence caught between golden booklets.
Or a burned page that has been scorched by flames so that neither letters nor pictures can be seen.
That’s my past, that’s my present.
“… … .”
My fingers were tingling.
But more than this pain, tomorrow… No, today’s reality is even more disastrous.
“Why do I live like this?”
I’m dumbfounded, so I burst out laughing.
Even he couldn’t burst out coolly, mute his voice… .
Like… Isn’t it like a rat hiding in a rat hole?
“Enough now. thank you.”
The vacancy where not a single bug chirping was released.
Soon after, a multitude of quiet noises began to pierce my ears.
After killing the presence, he exited the park.
Go over between roof and roof.
Quietly, return home.
“young master.”
“… … .”
The moment you step over the fence.
As if he had been waiting, a man holding a torch approached.
“Please do your best at night. you know? It’s bad for your reputation.”
“… Be careful.”
After replying indifferently, I climbed the wall and entered the room through the window.
In the familiar yet stuffy space, the pit of the stomach is already tight, and the heart is pounding.
‘prison.’
What is the prison for?
I look forward to the dawn with such open eyes.
Again, a hellish day begins.
—-
“The seat of the nine heroes! Last Warrior! The 1st Knights of the Empire, the leader of the Golden Dragon Knights! The golden swordsman, Rueld Brendiard! The Pillars of the Nine Heroes! A saint who goes ahead! A rite of brilliance! Our Lady of Salvation! Ermina Brandiar enters!”
It’s nothing short of brilliant.
black and white.
Rather than a dress, it was more like a robe covering the whole body.
Decorated with gold thread on a white background, it looked frugal at first glance, but in reality it was more like a formal dress with an astronomical budget and sense added, literally, even practicality.
And contrasting black hair.
Even as a child, I could feel the excellence of her beauty with braided teeth.
Even though my stomach was bloated because I was pregnant.
That look is even noble at first glance.
Gorgeous ballroom.
Even between large party halls where there is no shade.
Its unique beauty shines through.
Also, every gesture is noble and even sublime.
She truly has the presence of a saint and a virgin.
On the other hand.
The man escorting her by her side.
After going through all the hardships in childbirth, she has a fine appearance.
A subject well over 30, while still in her early 20s.
This one also wore formal clothes, but both of them were extreme in every way.
Pure white hair and jet-black black hair.
However, the color of the clothes is quite the opposite.
It would not be his own will to come all the way here and stick to the knight’s robes.
The old-fashioned mother probably preached for a long time in the name of moderation and law because her usual light and friendly attitude was not dignified.
Still, if you dress well, don’t make fun of your mouth, and only moderately restrain your facial expressions, the figure is considerable.
… Seeing it from such a distance, it seems like a person from another world.
“They are a picture-like pair.”
“As always, you two are getting younger by the day.”
“That’s right. I am so envious.”
“Well, but child farming… .”
“Kuhm! I have many ears to hear… .”
“Oh dear! What a vulgar mistake!”
This is it.
I can’t criticize those two, so it’s like exposing my claws to this side.
If it were father and mother, it would have been enough to listen to that level.
Because they both have that much potential.
However, it doesn’t matter.
If you start getting involved, you’ll probably have to wipe out the placenta of nobles.
Do you respond to such low-quality slander?
That’s it, it’s unreasonable.
… Anything that goes against the authority and dignity of a great hero.
“Still, won’t the good news come sooner or later?”
“You never know if there will ever be a legitimate successor for you two.”
“Surely the child born this time will be a noble child worthy of the reputation and dignity of the two of you, right?”
Stories like this are so incredibly catchy.
“… … .”
In order not to be noticed by the two in a corner, I pulled myself towards the terrace.
It’s a mindset to fill the time in moderation, only take a moderate amount of eye contact, and get out.
If I went back recklessly, I could be looked down upon as a fool who couldn’t even say hello properly.
I don’t know if I didn’t come at all, but as long as I step in, I have to observe the basics.
“Were you here too?”
Also?
When I turned my head slightly, an impressive red-haired girl appeared.
A radiant appearance decorated with a red dress and fancy accessories.
As a woman and as a girl, this is the time to emit the most active light.
However.
… To me, that reddish splendor symbolized another curse.
“… … .”
Pushing back the sigh I was about to come out, I politely bowed.
“It’s been a while, Her Highness the Princess.”
“I remember meeting yesterday at the academy. Long time no see is a bit of a misnomer.”
“… … .”
We ran into each other once at the grades bulletin board.
I didn’t even pretend to know at the time, so why point it out?
Her blue eyes indifferently penetrate this way.
Even so, it only feels ferocious, like that of a hawk that finds a weakness.
No, there is no hostility or malice on the other side.
It just exudes a sense of intimidation with its existence itself.
Being swayed by it, feeling inferior.
After all, at some point, I couldn’t even be jealous, I just thought about my helplessness.
“If you’re ranked 10th in the entire school, I think you’ve worked hard.”
“… It is too much praise.”
“But it will harm the prestige of the hero, Rueld-nim, and Saint Ermina-nim. It was none other than the two readers.”
“… … .”
because it was
it won’t be soon
I am anxiously waiting for that moment.
“Even if it’s not the top, I want it to come true at least second. If it’s you, it should be enough. Why not show off your talent?”
this… crazy bitch?
Dozens of swear words erupted from within, but it has never been like this for a day or two.
I calmly responded, chewing on the sound of metal friction that I didn’t know where it was coming from.
“It doesn’t matter if it’s lower than you, is that what you mean?”
“… … .”
The person in front of me is a genius who has monopolized all the blessings of the world.
It is truly unique.
She, who showed outstanding prominence in all fields, was making a splash all over the world that she was truly the descendant of the Hero Emperor.
Also, the girl in front of you.
… Because he was a descendant of two heroes like Kariel himself.
“It doesn’t matter if you beat me. As long as your skills are guaranteed.”
Truly an arrogant boast.
“… Isn’t that a story you’d like to tell to those who are after you, not me?”
and.
besides me and her.
Because there were so many descendants of the hero.
I am the lesser of them.
If only the comparison target had existed in front of my eyes.
… I wouldn’t have been treated like a bug like this.
that can’t be beat
There was a time when I thought for a moment that I wanted to be like that.
different from birth
Neither status nor innate qualities.
rushing expectations.
Even the slightest interest.
“… ha.”
Did it come out of my mouth? I almost mistook it for a moment.
little sigh.
An easy-going attitude she would never show.
Then I took a closer look at her face.
“Kariel, you look very tired.”
“… … .”
“I heard the bad news that they go here and there at night.”
Why was this even captured by that human ear?
Does that mean that most people know about it?
“Clean up your body. You shouldn’t make fun of your body just because you’re a man.”
“… … .”
What bullshit is this again?
Oh, is that how you interpret it?
So.
I’m obsessed with nightlife, like common nerds, what are you talking about?
“What does that have to do with Your Highness?”
“Kariel. You will become a mainstay of our empire in the future. It seems to be wandering for a while now, but time will solve that too.”
… … .
whoever you want?
Like time, what and how do you solve it?
“The stroke of childhood is, after all, only short-lived. Like flower petals being carried away by the flowing river, it is just vague.”
“… … .”
“Isn’t making beautiful memories a noble gift that a young person can send to his future self?”
“… If anyone sees it, Your Highness and I will sound like we have a 10-year age difference, right?”
This is the same age as me, and this is a hero like me, a child of a hero.
Is it because they are of the emperor’s lineage that they are so different?
Or just because I inherited an inferior seed and blood?
“Kariel. hello you… .”
At that time, the interior of the ballroom started to become noisy.
“… under. Let’s stop chatting here.”
chat
Talking like this is a way to turn around.
“Follow me. The desire to leave this place, I sympathize with you a hundred times. Didn’t I at least have to say hello to His Majesty?”
“… Will there be any?”
Rather, I will help you leave quickly, is there any reason to refuse?
I calmly followed her.
and.
I was driven out in the eyes of the people I didn’t want to face.
‘Wouldn’t it be like this even if I had no luck?’
I wanted to tear this complacent brain that thought I could leave quickly.
There, they were.
Just like the princess.
Descendants of warriors like me.
Descendants of great warriors and heroes, whose outstanding talents are resounding all over the world.
“You were there, Kariel. Come on, come here. It’s been a while since I’ve seen your face!”
In addition.
A beauty that subdues even a gorgeous golden outfit.
A red-haired blue-eyed man as smooth as a sculpture, and a blue-haired, black-eyed woman standing next to him.
“Really, I told you to visit me often.”
Hero Emperor and Madou Empress.
With a man who became an emperor from a hero.
A woman who became an empress as an archmage.
Besides that, including my parents, the other nine heroes belonging to the Empire.
‘They caught me.’
upset stomach
In my head, chime, chigi gig! do.
The sound of iron friction, which I did not want to hear, was scratching my brain especially loudly.
