I Became a Foreigner Loved by Transcendentalists

38 – Episode 38. XXX broke into the lily. Wow.

“Aha~ Look at the color of the eyes~ It’s so pretty~”

A warrior grinning and grabbing the chin of a clown who was looking at him.

There was no feeling of consideration at all in that touch.

Unlike the man who showed concern for himself even when he threw himself in the end.

“Wait a minute. Now is not the time to be like this!”

But even such actions would be considered frustrating to those who barely survived.

Soon, the leader of the group began to speak urgently to the guards blocking the warrior’s path.

“I’m out of the garrison. There are circumstances, but there’s no time to fool around here! Uh, we have to get out of here quickly!”

“I’m sorry, but the hero is busy taking care of business right now. I recommend not leaving until the hero makes his move.”

“Are you saying that!?”

“You may not know where we came from alive just a moment ago, but you never know when the Demon Lord’s army will come here!”

“Wouldn’t it be better for you to stay by the hero’s side to ensure your safety?”

A bodyguard that tries to persuade rebellious adventurers with a cool voice.

The adventurers stiffened in the face of their strong attitude, but no one was quick to open their mouths.

Yes, the existence of a hero is enough to suppress the sense of crisis they feel.

“Yes~ If you are the Demon Lord’s army and your life is precious, don’t go anywhere else and just stay by my side~ If I want to go back to the empire, I need people to help me in many ways~”

In a tense atmosphere, the warrior with a sly smile placed his arm on the shoulder of the clown next to him without hesitation.

I didn’t mean to just tease them.

I was in such a hurry that I couldn’t bring even a single daily necessities, so meeting a merchant who was supplying supplies was something I wanted to welcome from a warrior’s perspective.

“Did you fully understand what it means?”

In addition, if there was a woman of my taste, there would be no reason to reject him.

The clown’s eyes, realizing that such greedy fingertips were reaching out to his body, began to fixate on the exact tip.

“Of course, it might be a little scary at first, but don’t worry too much. If I hang out with you a little, you’ll get used to it quickly… ….”

-Wow!

“…Ah?”

“Get your hands off me.”

A warrior’s hand being pushed away by a rough sword.

That was something that the clown himself was not aware of.

Before I even thought about rejecting this hand, my hand moved earlier.

“Don’t touch my body.”

Yes, because I got goosebumps.

Unlike when I held the hand of the man who was rising at this very moment.

Because I feel a terrible sense of rejection at the fact that I have to accept the desires of others aimed at me.

“Wow, look at those fierce eyes~”

A hero who does not feel a sense of danger even when faced with such poisonous gaze.

Immediately, with a wry smile, he focused his energy on his left eye.

“But what does that mean?”

Jiying, a strange light accompanied by a vibration sound.

When the exposed body froze to a halt, the warrior burst into laughter and began clapping.

“Ahahahaha~ What do you think, isn’t it amazing? This is said to be the magical eye of petrification~ When I look at the object with this eye, my body freezes on the spot~”

It has not been physically solidified.

To be exact, not in the body but in the mind. It is also a power that affects the ‘unconsciousness’ that one is not aware of.

This is an ability that can be called ‘absolute power’ that applies to any intelligent being with consciousness, regardless of the strength of the target.

“It’s no use resisting, so don’t lose your strength and just stay still. I’ll make you feel good from now on~&”

Of course, I didn’t feel any trouble.

Even if their physical movements are restricted, it does not mean that there is no way to kill them.

But… ….

‘But what does that mean?’

I still felt chills from the desire to invade my own body, but even that feeling of physiological fear seemed like a good thing now.

Even if I shake off this abominable bug, there is no guarantee that the day will come when my calling will be fulfilled.

In that way, I did not resist things that had no meaning, and I lived my life thinking that it was also part of the journey.

Yes, that was the reason why he neglected the man who tried to save him…

‘…… Mr. Hyosung.’

As he said, it was only a one-day meeting.

No matter how much you feel attracted, it is strange to think that there is something special in a meeting that only lasted one day.

‘You’re dead, right?’

The hesitation created by such prejudice led to an irreversible path, and has now become a regret.

If it’s annoying, you can just pretend you’ve forgotten about it and brush it off like before.

‘Now, I can’t see you again, right?’

Why does your heart change?

Is Lee Da-ji also upset over the fact that she can no longer meet him again?

-Kugung, boom!

The moment when the feeling of desperation created by such feelings is cut off by a sudden shiver.

Immediately after that, everyone’s eyes, including her, began to gradually move towards the place where her voice was heard.

-Kugua River!!

Yes, the middle of the forest turned upside down.

Something poured down from between the bursting pieces of wood, and soon, fear began to appear on the faces of those who saw it.

“W-what is this…?”

What fell between them was a dismembered corpse.

These were colleagues who had set up a reconnaissance in the rear to protect this group.

From noble mtl dot com

“Everyone, everyone run away…!!”

And as if following in the footsteps of those corpses, the last survivor joins them, shedding blood.

“Woah, run away from here. Above, that dangerous guy…”

“Dangerous guy? Has the devil’s army come?”

“Not demons. Beastmen, beastmen…!!”

Beast people.

A race with the characteristics of a beast added to a human body, and separate from the Demon Lord’s army, they pose a threat to humanity.

Why do they reveal their presence in the garrison area targeted by the Demon King’s army?

“…Krrr.”

To put that question to shame, a faint cry was heard from the dark forest.

While they were all intimidated by the intimidating feeling they felt, a figure approaching them, pushing away the trees blocking their bodies with their hands, eventually appeared in front of them.

The size is enough to fit the metaphor of being the size of a house.

A being born with such a gift that one dares to refuse comparison with humans.

“…Huh, this is true. I was just about to have a good time, so why did the beast people show up?”

Then, as if the steam had cooled, the hero escaped from the clown and began to raise his eyes towards the shadow looking down at him menacingly.

“Hey Gomtaeng, just stay there.”

Red light from open eyes.

The object toward which the light is directed is swallowed up by the unconsciousness that it must never move, and ends up frozen in place without awareness.

Strength and size have nothing to do with it.

If it were real, even the legendary dragon would not be able to defy this gaze.

“You think that just because you’re big means you can do anything, but size and strength have nothing to do with my abilities. If you have the mental head to understand what I’m saying, just be quiet…”

“Krrr!!!!”

But the unconscious is the realm of instinct, not reason.

No intelligent being can control his or her unconsciousness with will, but if the person’s natural instincts are running wild from the beginning, intervention in the unconsciousness can be blocked.

Yes, the vicious paw that rose upward at this moment was a possible result of the intense hatred that was accompanied by the hero’s power that even pushed it away…

“Uh, huh? What is it? Why is this guy moving…?”

– Powoo!!!

The upper body is mercilessly torn apart by the continued stomping of the front foot.

As the blood that burst out with him spread everywhere, the beastman began to sniff his black nose as if the smell of blood was unpleasant.

“…Disgusting.”

And then, the voice that flows out from the open mouth.

When I felt my stomach tingle just hearing that, the prisoner’s gaze began to turn towards the survivors.

“There’s a disgusting smell in here.”

“Ship, white bear…?”

The moment when everyone’s faces turned pale when they belatedly realized its identity.

What immediately came out of their mouths was a feeling that could be called extreme despair.

“If it’s a white bear beast… Then, really?”

“Ah, uh…. There is only one white bear beast that we know of.”

“Clearly the leader of the anti-human coalition…”

Anti-Human Coalition.

An army of beastmen who claim to be an advanced human race that transcends humans, and who are united under the ideology of destroying everything that barbarian mankind has built and reigning over it.

Among them, the most vicious beastman, whose strength is said to be unrivaled, was the white bear beastman who existed in front of them.

“You guys are the companions of the disgusting b*tch you just killed, right?”

Name, Phobia Homer.

Special note: extreme hatred toward homos*xuality.

“All homos*xuals will be killed!!!! Wow!!!!”

The moment when the hatred of such a being exploded.

The survivors, frightened by his spirit, quickly turned their backs and began to run away.

“aaah! Everyone run away!!!”

“Hey, the hero was defeated! “I got hit without even using my hand!!!”

There was no other option than to run away.

When the person who guaranteed their right to survive was brutally murdered, how could they deal with a prisoner who was so infamous even in the empire that he even had a wanted letter written down?

“Giggles, that crazy Gomtaeng guy is going crazy again.”

But what is more serious is that it is not just Phobia who is here.

Soon, behind the excited phobia that swept through the surrounding area, people with the appearance of beasts began to appear one by one.

“Heehee! What does that matter!? We came here to wipe out all the guys here anyway, so if a guy with no motivation goes on a rampage, it’s okay for us!”

“Fall in fear, humans! We, the new humans, have come here to conquer the uncivilized barbarians!!”

In the dark forest, the moment when beasts with beastly instincts and bodies that surpassed humans began to run rampant.

The armed adventurers hurriedly dealt with them, but their claws and teeth were ruthlessly cutting into their vital areas, tearing even their weapons apart.

“Damn it!! The Demon Lord’s army alone is too much, so why are these beasts suddenly jumping out?”

“Run now! What can we do to our opponent when the hero is dead… Ugh!”

The moment when, in such a hopeless situation, the bodies of the fleeing convoy were cut off mercilessly.

The ones that approached, trampling on the shredded corpses, were beings that could be called monsters that appeared in the form of ugly desires.

“Oh, there just happen to be humans here?”

“It was frustrating and boring to camp out on the wall, so we’d be grateful if you came outside like this!”

The devil’s army.

The demons who were trying to surround the surrounding area to attack the garrison, heard the commotion here and came to block their path.

“But what, there are beastmen over there?”

“No problem, just kill them all!”

“Khahahaha! I was bored with just the humans, but it’s great! “Let’s have some fun!!”

Their sole purpose is invasion, destruction, and massacre.

It was a concept that was incompatible with the values of the Anti-Human Coalition, which called for conquering humanity, an inferior species, and placing it under their rule.

“Dirty demons dare to target our prey!?”

“It actually worked out well! After all, the demons had to prove at some point that they were lower than us!”

“Eat their flesh! We will use that blood and flesh as our thirst to prove our superiority!”

The moment when the two sides clashed for different reasons and came to the same conclusion.

All the weak humans caught in the battlefield created like that could do was suppress their fears and try to find a way out somehow.

“Ah, ah. “It’s all over.”

“Po, don’t give up. “All you have to do is take advantage of the opportunity to fight between those guys and escape!”

“Well, there is a chance. The chance to survive…….”

Beasts driven by instinct and demons driven by desire.

And a scene where the fears of weak humans gather in one place and swirl.

The clown, standing alone in a square among all of them, placed his hand on the lute in his hand and whispered lonely words.

“…… Really.”

Starting with the string being flicked, amber eyes turn to the scene.

After that, in the darkness that came, I took time alone to gradually reflect on the current story.

“This is a really cliché story.”

The story of a hero who is intoxicated with power and victory and knows no defeat, but is blinded by arrogance and puts his head in the mouth of a beast.

I think of the ugly demons drawn by that scent and the humans caught in a war against the beasts, dying like trash while longing for life.

“But how can this be called a tragedy?”

I want to sublimate all of those stories into one story by incorporating them into my performance.

In an era where even despair mixed with screams and painful grief become stories worse than cheap jokes.

“It’s just that you weren’t the main characters, and this world is so heartless to those who aren’t the main characters.”

There is no need to look any further. Even though I consider the story trivial, I am trying to move my hands in this crazy banquet.

Not a sense of mission or expectations for the future.

Just like habitually repeating something that has been repeated so far.

“If you end up leaving the stage so lonely, don’t worry too much… ….”

As I continued to play, saying the words that had been repeated countless times until now, the desires of everyone present in the area where the sound was transmitted began to gradually increase.

“This lowly clown will be with you until the very end so that you will not be lonely at the end.”

The reverberations of a festival so intense that it made waves on a river made of blood,

With the force of spreading beyond this forest to the distant valley.

***

-Tiriring, tiring~♪

Yes, the musician…….

At this moment, I feel a faint sound of music coming from beyond the valley.

It was a tone I had heard before.

I couldn’t quite remember when it was, but the familiarity I felt at this moment was enough to awaken my dormant consciousness…….

-Beep, beep!

As my body moved reflexively with awakened consciousness, I felt the creaking of the joints of my whole body traveling through my nerves and into my brain.

Only one room.

With a single punch from an inhuman monster, the body that had been desperately trying to live all along was so horribly damaged.

If it weren’t for the armor Tachia made for him, it wouldn’t have been surprising if he had died.

-Wood, click, click.

But even in such a hopeless situation, my body was struggling to move from this place.

It happened before I could even think about it.

If it moves even slightly, it can’t be said that there is no hope.

Yes, it only takes a little bit. Just a little bit.

-Wow. Boo.

A window that vibrates from afar and responds to my will.

If I were given the opportunity to hold this in my hands again.
