I’m Not a Hero Like You

2. She doesn’t make losing bets.(3)

After returning home, around the end of the day.

-So, you’re not saying you’re going to run away blindly, are you? A young boy who knows nothing about our world. What are you trying to live by leaving your bare body?

She suddenly spoke to Kariel, who was sitting at his desk in the middle of preparing for the exam.

“… Are you being sarcastic?”

– About half?

The demon king’s mischievous expression showed an extremely one-sided aspect.

Truly, the confidence that one would show when examining the weak and incompetent.

-Isn’t it because you don’t have the strength that you’re still submitting like that? Will going out here really change that life?

“So accept the power?”

It’s an insignificant trick.

However.

Again, she snorted and waved her hands.

-The boat has left, kid. You say you hate power without a price? I think it’s a very pleasant development to make you regret forever how great an opportunity you missed with your full-bodied complaints?

“… … .”

-Your father is also a holy sword, so he leaned on the holy relic, but did you think that the cost was enough power? This is proof that you don’t know the world yet. tsk tsk… !

The Demon King who exaggeratedly clicked his tongue.

“… So, what do you mean?”

I don’t think I’m doing that for the purpose of being sarcastic or ridiculing.

– Then what, is it okay if you have power?

“why? Are you going to make a conditional contract? Give up your soul? Or do you want me to give you this body?”

Then, as if it was a good idea, the demon lord whistled.

-Ah, there was that number. Come to think of it, other demon lords tried to revive like that, right? Messy. No matter how shameless the king is, that’s not the case. Like ugly bastards.

“… … ?”

-I said it, but I don’t think there’s any reason for me to do something stupid? The little one is still young, so I don’t know.

I do not know.

What the hell is this woman, this demon king thinking?

“No way, the power with a price, the fact that you want to raise me… Wouldn’t it be?”

-You’re not going to become the Demon King, so why? And what about the son of the guy who killed me? did you turn

“… … .”

Conceptually, this is correct.

Rather, if I had a favor with you, if I was trying to teach you something about the relationship, it would have been suspicious as it is.

furthermore.

That demon lord must have already figured out his own tendencies.

That such shallow tricks would never work.

-But, my observer has rolled like a bug and been beaten like a hukou, and I’m going to watch what he’s going to do after that, doesn’t it make me angry?

“What, what?”

-Wriggling like a bug is disgusting. So I will only give you a chance to struggle. Excluding preferential treatment.

instead.

-If you don’t get over it, this will be another hell for you.

“Since a while ago, I keep saying things I don’t understand… Ugh?”

Consciousness suddenly becomes confused.

Without even realizing that he had collapsed, when he noticed, his whole body was already lying helplessly on the floor.

‘What are you doing… .’

Consciousness gradually fades.

Like in a deep, deep pit.

Like falling into a pit where there is no light, as if being sucked in.

So, how much time has passed.

Suddenly, my vision was wide open.

“… … ?”

Where is it?

A lush wind of ash and sand… badlands.

I was driven into the middle of it.

aaa!!

Wow!!

The fierce spirit and heat stabbed as if it would paralyze your hearing beyond the turmoil.

with him.

Black dots filling the sky.

1 second passes.

Another second passes.

Now, those dots have multiplied in countless numbers and reached right in front of my eyes.

“Gagging!”

something that beats the whole body.

No, stabbing, digging, piercing.

When I noticed, my whole body was in rags.

“Uh, billion-?”

without knowing what happened

My eyesight was darkened.

-Are you kidding me?

And again.

“Huh?!”

Take a moment to catch your breath.

Quickly turn your head to look around, then behind you.

Numerous people were running desperately, shouting all kinds of things in front of them.

Clumsy leather armor.

Not even him was strong or well-armed.

What was in my hand was a variety of unstandardized weapons.

and.

Let’s look straight ahead again.

The dots filled the sky again.

That is… .

… It was a barrage of arrows fired from a long distance on a large scale.

Again, I realized it only before I died.

‘how?!’

Before I could even vomit questions, screams, and bewilderment out of my mouth.

Arrows were pierced all over his body and he was crippled.

No, at this point, it might have to be seen that he was struck by an arrow and fell out.

Even the terrible pain stops quickly.

But.

This was only possible because of extreme luck.

By the time the third death arrived, he had not died cleanly.

The touch of an arrow that had half-pierced his neck, and the remnants of that violence that could not pierce his thighs, shins, stomach, or eyes, all of which had pierced his consciousness as a sharp pain.

“Kek! Kuck!”

Blood all over the body bursts and spurts out.

Until the illusion of ridicule flickers by as the god of death passes by.

Everything is stretched, and even the perception of the world gradually fades.

The life is gone, and the shadow of death is cold and harsh.

indeed… .

It’s a terrible feeling.

“Keugh!”

go back

Again, I was standing in the middle of the wasteland.

Instinctively, I lowered my body and tried to curl up as much as possible.

… It couldn’t survive on its own.

“Aww!”

It’s been a while to raise a shield scattered on the ground to block it.

Because the arrow attack was so powerful, even this was not a single shot, but a follow-up.

Once or twice, he endured like a miracle, but he could not avoid the fate of falling into a target.

Enduring like that, running away at all, until the end, even using the corpse as a shield, many times to endure.

‘It’s not over… .’

I tried to endure as much as I could and counted.

10 times, 20 times.

Virtually.

… It felt like a shower of arrows was pouring down until he died.

‘why?!’

Maybe it’s because I have some spare time?

Or is it because some reason has returned even in this hellish situation?

How did it get to this point?

‘Devil-!’

It must be her craft.

But why?!

Just to live, hold on and hold on again.

dying and dying

How many repetitions did that last?

By the time I completely give up on thinking.

Blinking, eyes widened.

“Huh!”

Instinctively, I crouched down.

It was only for a moment that I felt relief in the confined space.

‘Here… ?’

-What do you think? Do you feel very bright after being in a daze?

With a familiar voice, a golden woman wandering in the air appears.

mischievous smile.

But as much as it is now, it is no different from that of the devil.

… Kariel felt it deeply.

—-

-Sleep trouble is an excuse. Don’t you think it’s reasonable to rest your body and train your mind in this way, when you’re going to stay up all night with your eyes open?

“… … .”

A very selfish idea.

The intention of not caring about the safety of others is extremely strong.

– You said you don’t need power without a price? So, with the intention of accepting the price and gaining strength, I personally prepared the training ground, right? I can’t thank you.

“that is… A training ground? Anything like that?”

Isn’t it a slaughterhouse where you become a one-sided target and go after it?

Malicious bullying, not torture?

-Your father and mother have always been through that much, like breathing and eating. What are you so foolish about?

“Do I look human like them?”

-It must be a sight you will see all the time when you run away later, right? Even if it’s not a battlefield or the military, an unspecified combat group can always deal with civilians, travelers, and wanderers. You still don’t fully realize the fear of the world. At least it shoots even if you can see it. If it flies out of sight, what will it be?

“Why am I doing that now… !”

smart!

“Do, young master? Are you awake?”

“… … .”

The demon king smirks.

tell me more

As if asking to be more angry, the appearance of the corner of the mouth rolled up, beyond meanness, made the murderous intent soar.

“okay.”

Kariel clenched her molars.

In response to the best answer he gave while maintaining his composure, the door opened after a while.

“It’s been a while since you woke up so early. You must have been very tired yesterday?”

“… … .”

A girl who smiles and expresses joy.

I thought that I could smile so brightly even when I met my face every time.

Neatly groomed black bobbed hair.

There seems to be no simple maid outfit or disheveledness.

Even though it was early in the morning, she must have been up and looking at the house and checking the surroundings.

The butler also had a head maid, but even so, the total number of employees, including the woman in front of him, was less than five.

It’s actually a small number in terms of the size of the house in an aristocratic family, but since it’s a frugal family in this respect, it’s not unusual.

Kariel was staring into the girl’s light brown eyes.

“Sylphia.”

“Yes?”

“… I’m planning to go to school early, so prepare some snacks.”

To Carriere’s request, the girl with a smile like a sunflower nodded broadly.

“Yes! Anything!”

—-

Damn it, as she said, the body was perfect.

Even his consciousness, which had been confused and flaccid each time, was now sharp as if standing on a blade.

No, this is a bit exaggerated, but… .

‘Because he died like that.’

not yet.

My whole body had been pierced like a lousy target, and the senses that had become lethargic and tattered were vivid.

‘Damn it.’

Because I always stayed up all night with my eyes open, it was familiar that my mind was clouded and my consciousness was sharp.

The fact that my consciousness became sharp and eerie in this way… In a different sense, displeasure wells up.

even.

“Kariel. Today is… You seem to have quietly closed your eyes.”

Isn’t even the princess, after seeing her own condition, handing out such a voice.

No, you showed signs of being that tired?

“… … .”

It was irritating in many ways.

– Kiki Kick!

Especially, thanks to that damn malicious demon king!
