47 – Someone’s Home

“Home… Are you going to?”

A look of bewilderment lingers on Chief Instructor Edmund’s face.

I shouldn’t be like this, but I should be calm as usual.

It’s something that’s never happened before, so it’s not going to go well.

“Yes, Chief Instructor. Is it not possible?”

“It’s not impossible… It’s because it’s a bit sudden.”

“I understand. But hometown is something that suddenly comes to mind.”

At Enlil’s answer, Chief Instructor Edmund nodded his head, saying, ‘That’s right.’

“Anyway, there is plenty of time left until the next full moon, and the saintess’ mana practice training has started, so even if I’m not there for a while, there won’t be any big problems.”

“… It is.”

“That’s why I want to go. Where I was before becoming a warrior. To remind myself once again why I am fighting like this, why I am here.”

Instructor Edmund looked at Leon involuntarily.

Then Leone shrugged his shoulders as if replying, ‘Why do you see me there?’

It was an unspoken meaning that he did not hold any words or desires.

“Whoa.”

Chief Instructor Edmund let out a sigh and replied that it was OK to do so.

I want to go to my hometown, but how can I stop it there? There’s no reason for that.

Even the opponent is not just a candidate for a hero, but Enlil.

“Thank you! Then I’ll go and prepare for departure.”

Enlil with a smile left the chief instructor’s room first.

Now, only the chief instructor and Leon were left inside.

“I wonder what the hell this is all about.”

“Is it necessary to show such an embarrassed reaction?”

“It’s not such a big deal if it’s to show longing for hometown. As a human being, how can you cut all that off and focus only on the duty at hand?”

“Then….”

“I was just surprised that the target was none other than Enlil.”

Leaning back in his chair, Chief Instructor Edmund pressed his temples.

It’s been several years since Enlil entered the warrior academy and received exhausting training.

It’s been another year since I rushed into the tower, revived, went to fight again, and came back again.

She has her years of watching her. She knows to some extent what she thinks, what kind of heart she has.

In all those long years she never said that Enlil would go to her home.

Not without her love for her hometown. She would have missed her without realizing it.

Nevertheless, Enlil put more weight on duty and fate.

Even when he was a candidate for a normal hero, when he became a hero, and when he passed the test of death many times.

She did, but she suddenly said that she would visit her hometown, so it was natural for her to look strange.

I shouldn’t be thinking like this, but I have doubts that I might have something different in mind.

“Don’t worry unnecessarily, Chief Instructor.”

“Worrying for nothing.”

“My heart has weakened, or I am not trying to play the role of a warrior anymore. Well, those kind of worries. Enlil would never be that kind of guy.”

At Leon’s words, Chief Instructor Edmund nodded his head as if that were the case.

If you really feel weak, you can just say you’re quitting rather than saying you’re going back to your hometown for a while.

In fact, no one will tell Enlil to fight more now.

After fighting so much, heading to the tower and coming back, what else can I do?

“Is Instructor Leone accompanying you?”

“It doesn’t matter to me, but I’m anxious to send it alone. If Enlil gets hurt, wouldn’t everyone be embarrassed, including the Chief Instructor? It would be good for someone to accompany us at least in order to dispel any doubts that might linger in the hearts of our high-ranking officials.”

It was Leon who accurately pointed out what Chief Instructor Edmund was worried about.

Now he is not simply worried about Enlil, the part that might be shaken.

It’s embarrassing when the superiors look at me strangely because of today’s incident, but that only bothers me.

In any case, it will come to a bad outcome for Enlil.

“If you don’t mind, I’ll ask you a favor. Can I give you two weeks?”

“That should be enough. I can go at my leisure and come back at my leisure.”

Thanks to Enlil, he was a Leon who had made himself leave the academy.

Not bad. Rather, it is a good opportunity.

I can’t pull out Enlil’s decisive move by repeating only the academy and the tower forever.

If he wants something new, he must experience something new accordingly.

“Instructor Leone.”

Rion, who is about to leave the room, is stopped by Instructor Edmund.

“Thank you very much. It might be a little strange to ask you this, but….”

“Not at all strange. And don’t worry. I’ll come back quietly without anything happening.”

Could Enlil give up now, or run away, is that what he thinks?

It was Rion who wanted to hit the heads of those who imagined nonsense.

Why did Enlil all of a sudden mention the story of her hometown.

And did he go further and say that he wanted to visit the place?

Actually, there was Lyon’s influence on that part.

‘I could go back to my hometown.’

Even though I had no choice but to leave because of circumstances, I couldn’t help but miss it. Hometown.

For Enlil, it is a place where she loses all her memories of her childhood and only has memories after that.

In fact, I can’t even call it my hometown. The real hometown must be somewhere else.

However, she couldn’t recall that, so she accepted the place that accepted her as her hometown, and accepted the people she saved as her hometown people, and was fighting the Witchbeast and the Tower for them.

Those who have a place to go back to, the earnestness of that person.

Enlil, who wondered if that was regret, made the decision to be more certain.

Let’s go to her hometown and remember her old days, even for a moment.

Of course, Leon was completely unaware of that fact.

“I’m sorry, Instructor Leone. I didn’t expect this to happen.”

However, I never imagined that Rion would go with me on that journey.

Of course, I thought he was the only one going, but why did he come along?

I never said I wanted to see my hometown for a while just because I wanted something like this!

“What is it? They attached me because they were worried about the hero.”

“But….”

“So. Don’t you want to go with me? Leave if you don’t like it.”

I also have a lot of work to do at the academy. We need to teach other candidates right now.

And now that you’re going to your hometown, shouldn’t you fill that void?

“Anyway, Enlil doesn’t exist either, there’s no one to take care of Seria, but there….”

“Are you going with me? Knowing that, I will prepare.”

It was Enlil who came to a conclusion as if there was nothing more to say.

After staring at her for a moment, Leon tilted her head.

“Prepare in moderation, in moderation. What do you bring so much?”

Wasn’t there a moving magic circle? But why do you pack food in your sleeping bag?

With a little bit of a joke, isn’t that almost a military commander?

“Ah, that… The place I was at is a place where I have to go much further even if I ride the moving magic circle.”

Anyway, it seems to be a small town located in a corner of the countryside, not a large city.

It’s understandable since there can’t be expensive moving magic circles everywhere.

By the way, wait a minute. Leone tilted his head and parted his lips.

“Enlil. It’s not your real hometown, but a hometown is a hometown anyway.”

“Isn’t it?”

“Was there no development or support or anything like that for the place where you were?”

When a celebrity is born in a neighborhood, the reputation of that neighborhood naturally increases.

It’s like a place that used to be a small town suddenly becomes a kind of holy place where people flock.

Even more so, since Enlil was the first warrior to be resurrected from the tower.

“Ah, that… I made a request. I don’t want it to cause a commotion to the people there.”

“In short, you mean you were worried that people would gather around and do something rude?”

“Yes. And people from my hometown said they didn’t want to rely on my name.”

That’s a nice sound to hear.

When her noun appears, there are people who try to put a straw in her, but it seems that the people of the village who saved her childhood Enlil sincerely care for her.

‘Perhaps he grew up with people like that, so he might have been the current Enlil.’

Thinking of this, I want to meet her Enlil, her hometown, and her people who saved her.

If it wasn’t for her, she herself wouldn’t have thought of hope or salvation.

She probably broke everything when the time came when she gave up on everything and she really became the devil.

“That’s why I am telling you… Well, if it’s not too different from what I remember, it’s a bit different from the academy. It may be uncomfortable to live with….”

“I don’t know how you look at me, but I’ve been having a harder time than you can imagine. Don’t worry.”

“Me and the elders there tell me strange stories from my childhood….”

“Oh. That’s kind of curious I must listen.”

“Oh no! Don’t listen!”

Have you seen such a foolish soul? Then you will be more curious about the dark history.

Rion promised that when she went to Enlil’s hometown, she would definitely hear about it.
