The Only Ending for the Evil Count Pig Is Destruction

20 – Scene 020# Wendy

*

The first time Wendy used magic was when she was 5 years old.

Born as the eldest daughter of a poor farming family, Wendy helped her parents farm from a young age.

Like any farming job, it was very hard work for her as a child.

She followed her parents to the field, tilling the ground from early morning until late at night, picking out stones.

The field allotted for her family to tend was absurdly large.

To the point where I can’t see the end even with the help of young Wendy’s hand.

There was not a day without a wound on my hand.

Repeat so that the wound will be wounded again.

Each time, it was her brother who healed Wendy’s small hand.

-It’s fine?

The eldest son of the family and her only brother.

My older brother was also young, but he did a good job as an adult.

My brother was the pillar in the house.

At the same time, it was Wendy’s support.

He would secretly help out Wendy while doing his own thing.

So, my brother’s clothes were always more muddy and sweaty than others.

That look makes Wendy very dependable… Thought.

Then one day, a severe drought came.

The land was dry and the hearts of the peasants were charred.

As the drought continued, even the food that had been rationed came to a situation where there was a shortage.

Her younger siblings cried every day because they were hungry.

But Wendy didn’t cry.

Because she was the eldest daughter.

Because she was the older sister of the children.

… Because I had a brother.

One day during a prolonged drought, Wendy found her brother in the field.

He was on his knees and muttering something.

-Brother, what are you doing?

– I’m praying.

-pray… ? to whom?

– I’m praying to God. to save our fields.

My brother looked desperate.

She found out that her brother had been starving for days.

My older brother’s arm was very thin.

sunken cheeks.

powerless eyes.

I wanted to help my brother.

– I’ll pray too.

Under the scorching sun, the little girl knelt beside her brother.

And I prayed earnestly.

to save our fields.

to make it rain on the dry land.

please help my brother… .

Tuduk.

It was then.

Could it be that Heaven was moved by Wendy’s prayer?

A drop of tear fell on the parched ground.

Tuduk. Tuduk.

One drop becomes two drops, three drops… And soon, countless water droplets fell.

It was a shower.

A miracle happened.

-brother!

Wendy, soaked with joy, was hugged by her brother.

I was helpful to my brother!

I wanted to be praised by my kind brother.

I wish I could stroke your hair

But no matter how long I waited, my brother didn’t say anything.

There were no warm hands.

There were no kind compliments.

Wendy looked up and looked at her brother.

And… I realized that my thoughts were wrong.

Because the look in her brother’s eyes as he looked at her somehow contained a complex feeling.

brother… ?

Maybe it’s because I prayed on my own… ?

That’s why I hate myself… ?

Wendy later found out that it was magic.

The drought is over.

Food, which was in short supply, began to be rationed again.

Farming also started again.

Everything is back as before.

Except for one thing.

-brother… … .

No matter how much Wendy called her brother, there was no answer.

She was taken aback by her brother’s cold attitude.

She thought about what she was doing wrong, but as a child, she couldn’t guess.

I was in tears.

did not comfort

He didn’t care for the wound on his hand.

Wendy’s supportive brother is gone.

Soon after, her brother decided to leave home.

He said he would go to the city to make money following a wandering merchant.

Wendy caught her brother as he was about to leave.

– Oh, brother! Sorry… !

Because if I didn’t hold on to my brother now, I would never see him again.

Wendy begged.

-I… I was wrong… black… I will never pray again… I’m not going to use magic… So… don’t go… .

– Wendy, it’s not your fault. just… .

My older brother, who had been talking until there, swallowed his words.

What were you trying to say?

My brother said goodbye to Wendy without even watering.

-Bye… .

-brother! don’t go!

Wendy couldn’t hold on to her leaving brother.

I couldn’t help but stare helplessly at my brother who was moving away.

I wanted to pray.

to hold my brother

Please come back as a kind brother again.

But Wendy didn’t.

It couldn’t be.

I’m afraid I’ll lose Yeong-yeong if I do that.

I decided not to pray.

I will never use magic again.

Bassrock.

Something broke in her mind.

When I thought of that, my voice trembled and my heart throbbed.

How long has it been since you left your family?

A man in expensive clothes came to her village.

-A servant is being selected by Count Ruelberta. Is there anyone in this town who would like to apply?

Countess Ruelberta… It must have been right in front of the Ludlow Islands.

If you become a servant of an aristocratic family, you will achieve great success in this poor village.

– Is there anyone?

Still, no one raised a hand to support.

Ruelberta was rumored to be home to the infamous Count.

Certainly, it might be better to be satisfied with your current life than to become a plaything for nobles.

-Oh, are you the first applicant?

When I woke up, Wendy had already raised her hand.

As if enchanted.

No, in fact, she was also looking forward to it to some extent.

A vague expectation that perhaps, if I go to Jedo, I will be able to meet my brother again.

That’s how she became the count’s servant.

I did not meet my brother there.

instead… met him

“Little girl.”

“Yes.”

Looking up, an old cat is standing in front of her.

“This test is specially prepared for you. Most of the people who want to take this test are unable to do so. I want you to keep that fact in mind.”

“Myoil-nim… No, Myohail-nim… .”

“Just call it a mystery. hahahaha.”

“Is Myoil-nim perhaps a much greater person than I thought… ?”

Myohai scratched his ear.

“Now I’m confined to this wretched body, but I was once praised as a wise man.”

“Tongue, sage… … .”

The cute cat in front of me is a wise man who has reached the pinnacle of magic.

Wendy’s body shrank.

Seeing this, Myohai laughed.

“Don’t worry. There was no way I could show my skills to a cute applicant like a little girl. But… .”

Myohail’s beard snapped.

“Before the exam begins, I want to ask you one thing.”

“Yeah… ?”

“What do you think of the Count?”

“… !”

Wendy flinched.

“If you are the one who serves the Count, you will know it well. Bad rumors about him.”

“… … .”

“Spending money and looking down on everyone and ignoring them. They harass nobles and commoners for fun, but they are also known to have huge ties to the underworld. so that… .”

Myohail’s eyes narrowed.

“Some say they deserve to die.”

“It is not so.”

suck! Wendy covered her mouth at the words that came out of her involuntarily.

Most of all, the words came out so clearly, unlike usual, that she couldn’t help but be surprised.

“It is not so… .”

“Hoo… ? Do you think so too? Then, can I tell you something you don’t know?”

“Yes?”

Myohai jumped up and jumped onto Wendy’s shoulder.

And whispered in her ear.

“He killed his father.”

“… … !”

At that moment, Wendy’s eyes shook.

Myoheil’s beard trembled.

“I shot and killed my father with a gun in order to ascend to the position of count. Even when you’re only about your age.”

“Oh, don’t lie… .”

“Do you not believe me, a former sage? well, that’s good But why would I lie to you?”

“The Count… I’m not the kind of person… .”

Wendy looked at the man sitting far away.

A tall, fat man with a dirty personality.

But a man I don’t doubt.

But the Count killed his father?

Wendy shook her head.

It can’t be.

The Count is not a man who will kill anyone.

At least that’s what Wendy saw.

However, Myoil was not one to lie either.

So, Wendy was confused.

Her heart thumped greatly.

At that moment, it was a very brief moment that captured her heart.

-Doesn’t believe you? Then trust me.

The words that allowed her to step up.

Those words were holding her back.

So Wendy decided to accept.

“Myoil-nim… .”

Even if some truth awaits.

Even if she doesn’t believe in herself.

“Please start the test… .”

To trust the Count.

“Heh heh, yes… The editorial was long.”

Myoheil sighed like a sigh and explained.

“The soil of this arena is a place where magical energy works well. It is similar to the magic stone used for chess.”

“Yes. Do you remember… .”

“Exams are almost the same as chess. Summon the golem with your magic. I’m going to summon a golem too. only… .”

The ground trembled as the tombstone energized it.

Eventually, the soil glowed golden and formed the shape of a giant.

“Pour your mana to the fullest. This is a pure contest of strength… No, it’s a contest of magic.”

The golden giant roared.

“I want to see the potential of the little girl. Please fight with all your might.”

“… … .”

Wendy took a deep breath.

A longing heart arose in her heart.

Just like when I prayed in front of the dry land in my childhood.

Because I wanted to repay ‘him’.

Because I wanted to be praised purely by him.

Wendy let go of her mana.

The earth greedily sucked up her mana.

Googoo goo.

The ground was cracking.

The ground shook incomparably to when Myohail summoned the golem.

cooong!

Suddenly, a black hand came out.

A huge body was coming out of the ground.

The giant’s body was growing so much that it sucked up all the soil in the arena.

Eventually, when the giant summoned by Wendy appeared in the arena, Myoheil held his breath.

“Right… I didn’t think of that… You didn’t have a black one, you had a black ‘do’… .”

A giant that she summoned that emits colorful light.

Seeing that, Myohai muttered like a sigh.

“Hey, you couldn’t believe it was the lineage of a hero… .”
