I’m Not a Hero Like You
Chapter 58
58 – 19. I am under a curse.(3)
Even before entering the city, the scent of lavender is strong.
Maybe it’s because I’ve already taken on the task of getting drunk on the way.
Some people may have entered the city before the festival, but there were also quite a few people who arrived late on the day of the festival, and the line from the entrance of the village continued.
The festival will last for several days.
Actually, Patina had already arrived in the village, but she was afraid that she might run into Kariel, so she was wandering outside the city.
Because the surroundings of Baronence Manor are relatively well-secured, and there are many good places to visit.
Also, since this was the time when outsiders would come and go, I was less vigilant than usual.
It must have been one of those coincidences that I had a conversation with a demonic young man who was drawing a landscape painting with a lavender field as the background.
“At first, the criticism was constant. How dare you hold hands with demons? While doing But now, it has established itself as one of the most successful places, and in the aftermath, the relationship with our solidarity has been good starting from some of the territories, so I think it’s a good thing for everyone.”
The rumor that the Baronence Territory was working with the demons to develop the territory was a big topic at the time.
As a result, in just five years, the place has achieved a growth rate that is incomparable to the previous one.
It’s a baronial territory, but considering its scale, it’s safe to say it’s more than that.
In addition, the emperor-friendly political inclination, which is close to the central government, may have worked to lead to support rather than containment.
After reconciling with the Widenberg family, which was said to have had a bad relationship when Berg was a kingdom, it seemed that the Baronenses had lowered their heads ahead of them.
The result has been going on until now, so it must be a very historic bond.
The Widenberg family also served as a founding contributor to the Berg Empire led by the Enzul family.
“I heard you well.”
“Me too. It was a pleasure to be able to talk to you in a place like this.”
It wasn’t until the time she returned to the city that she belatedly reported that Kariel had already left.
At the same time, the location of the person she wants to find.
There are visitors to the church, and believers have not stopped.
After going inside, we headed further inside.
As soon as I revealed my identity and even the business, I was able to easily reach the area where outsiders were prohibited from entering.
The person she wants to meet.
She was alone in her guest room drinking wine.
From noble mtl dot com
Her red hair stands out, and she has a strong body that makes her decent man go away.
Alessia, the 4th saint known as the patron saint in the world.
“Sister. It seems like I haven’t seen her in a long time.”
“It is said to be the time of the festival, but is it because of my mood that I feel that the time is inconsistent?”
Alessia spilled her patina with her drunken red eyes.
“Perhaps, you guessed right.”
“… Is it too?”
She fills her wooden cup by tipping a wooden barrel, not a bottle.
Taking out another empty wooden cup of her own, Alessia tilted her barrel again and filled her contents.
“Drink. It was a bit embarrassing to be drunk in the Lord’s courtyard alone, but this should be an excuse.”
“… I will drink well.”
Patina, seated across from her, calmly took her glass and tipped it to her lips.
For a while, such an unnatural silence continued.
“You deserve to be proud.”
Alessia was the first to speak.
“He was a great guy.”
“… ….”
“I don’t know why it became so dark and somber.”
No, I guess.
“Excessive expectations and attention from people around him, in any case, everything must have been a burden to him in many ways.”
“… ….”
“Since peace has arrived, the existing power and vested forces must have been displeased with the hero, who has no roots.”
Because he was not a nobleman by birth.
As usual, the blue bloods couldn’t understand how those who considered them uncivilized and inferior to themselves were gaining power, with their chosen people’s ideas.
… Not everyone thought that way, though.
And even such foolishness would have been appropriately used to build one’s own forces, and to slander and inflate the tax based on this.
“Because the Empire is not unique.”
“… As far as you know.”
“I don’t know, I just wanted to.”
Even if it’s not detailed, it would have been a problem if it was a problem that I came across related information too late.
If she found out the truth a little earlier, what would have changed?
Those who have already left have already left.
“From the point of view of her sister, how was the child?”
“What a child. Her looks are my taste, and her personality is meticulous… Because it wasn’t enough for me to like it, so I was soaked in it. It’s like having good dreams and bad dreams. It’s a rough kicking experience. I’ve done it quite often… This one hurts a bit.”
“Sister….”
“I don’t know what kind of exaggerated expectations people place on the lineage of warriors, but I don’t know.”
No matter what.
“… I don’t know if that would be the reason why he would grow up so dark.”
“That….”
Party I don’t know what to say, she just tilted her glass for a while.
“But did you know that?”
“… Please tell me.”
“I mean Kariel.”
Alesia was silent for a long time after that.
Like she’s pulling this out or not.
… It’s like contemplating it.
Patina felt uneasy.
What fact did she find out, why did she put so much effort into it?
No matter how much Kariel is a father and she resents others.
She knew very well, of course, that she wouldn’t confide that to anyone easily, even at the party.
She’s been through a lot for a long time.
Because he was quite passive in interacting with anyone, to the extent that he was called gloomy and gloomy.
“… ….”
When I was young, it was the complete opposite of me.
Has he changed?
Or maybe the world that treats him has changed.
She used to lightly mention the possibility that the princess herself was involved in external pressure, or some kind of magical action or malicious trick.
So vaguely….
“I heard that I was cursed by the demon king.”
So.
The moment those words come out.
Party At the same time I wake up from her thoughts.
She wondered if she heard something wrong.
For a while, only my eyes were open.
“… Yes?”
“Didn’t you hear?”
“No… wait a minute. I’m thinking of something else… I think she heard something wrong.”
“Then you must have heard it correctly.”
That can’t be.
“They said I was cursed by the demon king. Then, he self-deprecatedly said that he had colluded with the demon king. When I first heard this, I knew what I was hearing wrong.”
At the same time, hahahaha, Alessia laughed as if she had lost her soul somewhere.
“So if you get involved with yourself, you will be unhappy, so they told you not to do that. Such a curse Isn’t the explanation too unkind for what you’re trying to convince? Uh?”
“That, that… let’s go Well, something is wrong, you misunderstood….”
“Patina.”
Alessia said in a resigned tone.
“If you or the warriors didn’t know… I hope this isn’t a very serious problem.”
“… ….”
“Family? You said you thought of me like your brother?”
But why….
“Why aren’t you doing anything until you are driven away like that?”
“… ….”
Her head was dizzy.
What did you hear?
Did I hear that wrong?
Are you having nightmares?
Why out of so many cases….
Is the existence of the demon king protruding?
Hasn’t this already been a problem?
‘Perhaps.’
As the princess pointed out.
What if all the irrationality that happened to Kariel were actually related to the curse of the demon king?
“… ….”
Kariel So when did she find out about it?
The moment I thought about that, my bones became soft.
My back was drenched before I knew it, but I didn’t even realize it.
“Didn’t you know? Really? Why am I the first to… Oh, yes. I was the first to hear that fact directly from that child.”
What is this….
“…… It’s embarrassing.”
Alessia has nothing to be ashamed of here, something to be embarrassed about, something to be absurd about.
I thought it could happen again like this, so I lost my energy for a moment.
I don’t even have the energy to drink. This is still weird
“If you tell the system about this, there will be a lot of uproar.”
“… ….”
“Kariel must have left quietly because she wouldn’t bother talking about it everywhere. He also didn’t seem like she would open up to others easily.”
But, no matter what.
“… Am I late again?”
“Sister’s fault… no. Never.”
“Then whose fault is it?”
It’s lamentable.
A sigh leaks out.
“I will be wrong.”
I should have tried to be a little more understanding.
Even if the demon lord’s curse or something led her to err in her own mind and judgment.
… She shouldn’t have gotten caught up in it.
So, I’d like to take a closer look at Kariel and try to understand her.
… She should have tried a little harder.
“Because I don’t know the details. I was just telling you what I heard.”
Alessia, who said that, seemed to be suppressing her anger all the time even in the midst of her resignation.
“I respect Ermina-sama and Rueld-sama. The other warriors, of course.”
The fact that they saved him is an obvious fact.
After all, she didn’t know that she had received all kinds of education and became a saint… Part of it.
“But the next time I see your face, I feel like I will inadvertently swear at you. I can hardly judge whether that is right or wrong.”
“… Sister.”
“You were lucky enough to be shoulder to shoulder in some areas, and even back to back.”
By the way.
“… It was so different from what you boasted about with your mouth at the time. Come to think of it, even your boasts were all stories from the past that you remember, right?”
I should have noticed that was odd. I’m not too indifferent
“That child might have been quite vicious in the past that I don’t know about, to the extent that I heard various notoriety within the system. Because I’m in the past and I don’t know the reality. So I can’t be certain. But no matter how much I think about it, I don’t think he would have done that.”
So let’s ask you who know well.
“Kariel, other than recently or the old days you remember, how was the recent past? Did he do something heinous enough to be criticized for?”
“I….”
I don’t know exactly.
However, the original warrior’s son and descendant are swept away by all sorts of slander.
As for herself, she was subjected to all sorts of slander in the name of being taken care of by a hero.
However, even if they were praised on the outside, behind the scenes, it was the people of the world who were warriors, nabal, and swearing.
I don’t think everyone suffers from such malice.
However, she knew very well that humans are not always good.
To embrace even such evil and move forward, to make even such people understand.
It is the right guidance, guidance, and good deeds.
… Haven’t they been talking about it all along?
In the end, when we reach the end, everyone will acknowledge it.
That’s how great goodwill and justice come about.
What Rueld and Ermina said was clearly true.
Isn’t the fact that the current party and oneself became the pride and pride of the empire?
So, Kariel can do that too.
…… Could it be that I was wrapped up in a vague illusion?
Me and that child are obviously different.
Suddenly, I thought of a boy who turned his back after looking at me with lonely eyes.
Come to think of it, really, that child….
At some point, he stopped looking at him even if he didn’t care.
The one who actually spoke was himself.
Even with unilateral expectations.
Somewhat one-sided…….
“I also guessed that you guys were catching up.”
“… ….”
“Do it yourself. ‘Cause I don’t know anymore Beyond disturbing, I felt like I was about to break into pieces… Angry here… Anger? Sadness? I have to delete it anyway… Because I think I will live a little.”
So, is there anything else you want to ask?
From noble mtl dot com
“… ….”
There are many things I want to ask.
But looking at those empty eyes, the weak face.
What, I couldn’t honestly ask.
Besides.
Party myself as if she had been stabbed in the chest with something sharp.
She suddenly fell ill.
It was as if something in her had leaked through the punctured gap.
I lost all my strength.
As if my heart was empty.
“… You are also in a bad state.”
Alessia, at this point, she didn’t even feel like getting angry.
It is a lost lamb.
She just realized that the little lamb she believed was running hard without even knowing it was wandering had lost her way.
Is that why?
… Because he looked really confused.
It’s a bit like swearing at this, right?
“Okay, just have a drink.”
Alcohol is really good.
When you drink, everything becomes carefree, forgotten, and a smile is drawn for no reason.
Of course.
Not every moment.
It’s really sad, and when the tantrum gets too big and huge, it’s hard to put into words.
On the contrary, it has become more vicious than usual.
I thought I could wash it off with alcohol, but not at all.
On the contrary, it was more like piling up all sorts of filth and trash in a cramped warehouse as if piling up a fan on the inside, somewhere in the soul, or on the unconscious.
“Ha ha.”
At times like this, you have to put on your eyes.
Even though he is unconscious from drunkenness.
Why does that scene come to mind as vividly as if it had just happened?
My mind was so clear, I didn’t think my eyes would be glued on at all.
‘Was it that shocking?’
I tried lifting and tilting the barrel, but only water droplets dripped.
Then, even after leaning for a long time, the amount is infinitely insufficient.
Alessia was about to throw her barrel away, but she put it down in the end.
Anyway, I, more than I thought, more, more than I thought…….
I think he liked it.
