35. Academy Battle (2)

Musa had a very strange past.

The younger brother sacrificed himself, the family was destroyed, and the beloved Jeong-in died pathetically.

However, all the memories that I thought were scars that would never go away eventually became the past as I lived.

And today too.

May it remain in memory as a piece of the past and be able to reminisce.

Musa was hoping.

It was a village of tribal people with the name of Setima. A kind-hearted clan that is kind to outsiders, hates hurting others, and absolutely denies murder, so there is no proper defense force.

Musa also naturally melted into their kindness and stayed with them for a long time.

It’s a pity for such Setima, but a crisis came.

The army of the Griffin Kingdom, which is gradually expanding its territory, began to invade Setima’s land.

In addition, they treat the goddess Setima serves as heresy and aim for complete purge of the clan.

This is the place I reached after being pushed and run away.

Even in Setima, it was a forested land called ‘Tent’.

There is only one actual entrance, as all around the entrance is blocked by piles of stones.

There, Musa was waiting for people with his arms crossed and feeling the wind.

“grandmother! I want to eat candy!”

A child’s voice is heard. The warrior who had been seated beforehand opened his closed eyes.

“Hey man, you have to be patient.”

I try to pretend to be afraid of the child who is clinging to the grandmother and begging for candy, but the child giggles and laughs.

“Hi-Hi! You pretend to be scared, but you’re not scared at all!”

“her.”

A warrior scratching the back of his head with an embarrassing expression. The grandmother looked at him and bowed her head deeply to express her gratitude.

“You are suffering so much because of us. thank you.”

“No, of course it has to be done.”

Musa smiles and escorts the grandmother and grandson inside.

“grandmother! Really no candy? You brought one out every day!”

“Ugh, you bastard. wait and see Let’s look for it.”

Grandmother and grandson went inside, rummaging in their arms saying they couldn’t dry it.

Looking back along the road, starting with them, the residents of Setima were coming here in earnest.

“Brother, I am really sorry.”

“i look forward to.”

A drinking buddy and his wife nodding their heads.

“Guys, gather here. Ugh! Don’t let go of your friend. Come on! Come here?!”

Although he has a rough-looking appearance, he is in charge of Setima’s orphans, but in reality he is kind.

“You’re running like this? like this!”

“No, my leg hurts!”

Children laughing that they are having fun while jumping in place.

“i look forward to.”

Even the priest of Setima passed by with his head bowed deeply.

Musa greeted everyone with folded arms. If you hold on a little, support will come from the other tribes you’ve been living with.

It was only for that moment that he had to block this entrance.

“Mister!”

“Well?”

At that time, a girl approached me with a bright smile at my feet. She was the daughter of a priest and was often played with even by warriors.

“Why? I have to go to my father.”

“Look at this! I made it!”

What the girl held out was a doll. I couldn’t say it was very well made, but it was full of sincerity.

“What did you make? General?”

“Yeah?!”

I took a picture of it, but it must have been wrong, so the child pouted and shouted.

“You are an angel! angel! He will protect us all!”

“Ahhh! yes! You are an angel!”

“Yes! I’m sure he’ll make everyone laugh and be happy when it’s all over!”

A girl shouting with a confident smile. Thanks to that, Musa, who is a little relaxed, strokes her hair.

Then the girl proudly holds out the doll and explains.

“Look at this. They cut my hair and put it on, and it looks so alive!”

I thought it was a beard, but it turned out to be hair. Looking at the doll’s black hair, Musa smiled.

“Yes, surely the angels will see your sincerity and protect us.”

“Right?! Right! Ehehehe! Don’t worry, uncle! The angels will solve everything!”

The girl said that and went inside. Looking at the back of such a girl, Musa smiled brightly.

“Yes, the angels will protect you.”

the ground is ringing

It was a scene where you could see how many warhorses were running.

“Have you already arrived?”

Slowly loosening his sulking body, the warrior put his hand on the sword hanging from his waist.

Quite a long and arduous battle was expected without difficulty.

* * *

“hahahaha! hahahaha!”

As it is sticky, the blood soaks the whole body and makes the body heavy. I couldn’t open my eyes properly, so I tried to wipe them off with my hands, but only more blood was smeared on my hands.

In front of a pool of blood illuminated by a red crescent moon, the warrior was on his knees, catching his breath.

The enemy has already retreated.

Maybe, I’ll come back tomorrow, but I made it through today.

Even though it was difficult to take a single step due to a lot of injuries, Musa smiled with his lips lifted heavily.

“You endured.”

Tomorrow, help will come from a nearby tribal village. Then you can start a massive counterattack again.

It was regrettable that he, who should be in the vanguard, was exhausted, but Musa had the confidence that he could overcome enough.

I turn my gaze behind my back.

Behind the dark passage, I can’t hear a single voice from the villagers, but since none of the kingdom’s army passed, I’m sure it’s safe.

“You are hungry.”

I want to go inside and fill my stomach, but my legs do not move properly. I waited for a while to see if they would bring something to eat inside.

the sun rises

The kingdom army came in just like yesterday.

This time, Musa blocked it.

It was truly an amazing achievement.

Even though he lost a hand along the way, even when he was very hungry, he gritted his teeth and endured and conquered.

“I’m hungry, I’m so hungry.”

More than the pain and wounds, the hunger that came after a violent battle was the biggest problem.

Since it wasn’t replenished properly, he didn’t even have the strength to hold the sword anymore.

so that.

Approaching one of the scattered corpses, the warrior picks up one of the enemy’s severed arms and throws it into his mouth.

His teeth, sharp like swords, bite into flesh. The blood filled his mouth like gravy, but there was only the smell of blood in his mouth.

I know how evil it is to eat human flesh.

The goddess of Setima could also have clicked her tongue and left when she saw her.

But in order to protect it, I had to become a demon.

clap clap.

For the countless inhabitants of Setima who believe in themselves and pray within.

clap clap.

In the midst of the tragedy of losing everything, for those who made themselves human again.

clap clap.

Musa just forcibly stuffed chunks of meat into his stomach to replenish his strength.

day like that.

I lasted another day.

The voices of the residents who went inside are still not heard, and there are no shadows of the tribesmen of other villages who have pledged to send support.

Even so, Musa did not show his back.

Unfortunately, the end was a blade that pierced his back.

Fu-wook!

Looking at the sword of the Kingdom Army protruding from his chest, the warrior sighed.

I couldn’t feel anything except the reverberation of blood in my mouth.

His own thick blood gurgled down his throat and spurted out like vomit.

“Kuahak!”

How could they get out when not a single person was allowed in?

In the midst of such a question, the man who stabbed Musa from behind replied with a smile.

“Most of the people inside were already dead on the first day. Didn’t you know you could travel underground through magic?”

“… … !”

“Tribal people who decided to come to help? all dead You should have seen how everyone ran like an idiot to rummage.”

The man who couldn’t even see his face giggled and laughed.

“Thank you anyway. Thanks to that, a lot of the power of the rival family was exhausted, and merit was returned to me.”

fluff.

The knee of a warrior who did not bend in any ordeal falls down.

“The enemy has been cut! The eldest son of the Geronia family! Ger —-!”

Now I couldn’t see properly, and I could only hear faint sounds.

Musa realized that this was the end of his life.

Like everyone else, Musa had imagined his own end.

I thought it would end like a hot spot.

Wrap-up.

I thought it would be a perfect place to finish everything neatly and leave no regrets behind.

I thought you would be happy to get out of all this tragedy.

It was a life that was empty and meaningless, I thought it would be indifferent.

When the situation came to a close, the end was like scribbled ink, not a hot spot.

‘Min, do it.’

Being so powerless that I was made fun of.

For foolishly playing into the clutches of enemies.

For failing to protect the villagers.

angry

‘If there was such a thing as God… … .’

Musa did not believe in Setima’s goddess. That’s why I thought with resentment.

‘I should have kept them.’

… … .

… … … … .

… … … … … … .

“Yes, this is your past.”

Suddenly!

The warrior who came to his senses swung his sword roughly. Suddenly, he pushed the necromancer who had his hand on his heart.

couldn’t keep

But is it a gift from God or a prank from the devil? He was given one more chance.

So this time.

[Kuaaa!]

will protect

* * *

“What did you just do?!”

Finden Ai, who opened the way, asks me in surprise.

While the gap was wide open thanks to Finden Eye and Gideon’s joint effort, I absorbed magic near his heart and tasted fragments of his memories.

“I woke up.”

I can’t explain the situation itself in detail, so I’ll tell you briefly.

“Now you must have found your sanity.”

It was as I said.

The warrior who swung his sword with the force of a raging sword lowered his head as if to catch his breath for a moment and looked this way.

[How did you wake me up?]

The warrior who had been possessed by madness and evil thoughts until just now had finally opened his eyes.

“Because I need you.”

Naturally, Findeneye and Gideon stepped aside, and Musa and I looked at each other in a straight line.

But being able to talk didn’t mean he had become friendly towards us.

[Pick up the bullshit. Dogs of the kingdom. Tonight, I will appease the spirits of the dead children by taking your throats.]

“It is impossible.”

I denied his words without hesitation.

“No matter how brutally they kill us, it is impossible to resolve their resentment.”

[What do you know!]

“Know.”

Hwareuk!

He wears a blue flame around his right hand. Same thing you did for Emily.

It was a necromancer’s flame to deal with the soul.

“While you’re out of your mind and just staying here.”

[…] … .]

“It was I who comforted them.”

In an instant, not only Musa, but other people’s eyes were also focused on me.

But, as usual, I was just talking to the spirits.

“Musa, answer me.”

One step towards him.

Musa’s sparkly eyes shimmer, revealing nervousness and anxiety.

“Who are you protecting them from?”

[I… … .]

“Musa, answer me.”

When he took another step forward, this time he took a step back as if a warrior were running away.

“What did the people of Setima really want?”

[…] … .]

“What did the inhabitants of Setima do in front of the Kingdom army, armed with spears and swords, and riding horses?”

[…] … .]

“What is the wish of the girl who proudly smiled and showed you her doll?”

The tip of the warrior’s sword, which had been held high, slowly descended in a parabolic arc and touched the floor.

“now. Who are these people who are acting their own way with the cause of representing them?”

Nameless demons gathered in this academy, where the boundary between life and death had collapsed, and satiated their desires with slick words to relieve Setima’s grudge.

“Samurai.”

Arriving in front of the samurai who was staring blankly at me, I slowly reached out my hand.

Blue flames begin to spread as if spreading all over his body.

“For the sake of others, for the sake of the benefactor, a samurai who became a Sura without letting go of his sword.”

[ah… … .]

“You deserve to see the end of this story.”

The new form of the samurai, which gradually began to melt in the flames, is distorted.

Soon after, he turned into an old, worn sword with a black light like an abyss and came into my hand.

“Come with me, see off the poor.”
