Okami Wa Nemuranai

I woke up with the sound of puffiness and fire starting.

Fire.

Forest.

It's supposed to be night, but it's bright.

There are many "lights" floating around.

There are humans. Two.

It's Nike and Edda.

"Are you awake? Lecan, are you awake?

It's Edda.

She's a nasty woman.

The obnoxious woman cried and clinging.

"Good. Really good. You're gonna die, and you're gonna die, and you're gonna die."

"Weird"

"What the hell is wrong with you? You can't beat anyone, can you? You're stronger than anyone, aren't you? And he hated me, and he punched me."

"Heavy. Out of the way"

"Always looking great, no matter what happens, don't move"

"Don't rub your nose around my neck."

"Whatever enemies show up, we're gonna trample them flat."

"I rarely stomp"

"Even if it's painful, keep your chest up, don't change your way"

…………

"I'm so proud of you."

"Really, get out of the way"

"I wanted to be a strong adventurer like you. If you do, I will."

…………

"Then no one would fool me, no one would turn me around, and I could live."

"... right"

"Besides, you're sweet."

"It's cold on you."

"Even if it looks cold, it's compassionate. You don't do unfair things, unfair things."

"A mistake."

"I don't even look at you with nasty eyes"

…………

"You're just a man. You're the real adventurer. So if I'm with you, I guess I can change the way I am."

…………

"I'm glad I didn't die. Really good."

Edda has been clinging harder and harder to Lecan's neck.

I can tell by the feeling that you're crying.

It was a terribly uncomfortable situation, but even Lecan couldn't help but pull Edda.

"Lecan."

Nike's voice.

You have to thank Edda.

"Yeah?"

"You were nearly killed by a cursed grace"

"Curse...... you say?

That's crazy.

Recan is equipped with a silver ring. This ring is granted "Abnormal Condition Resistance", "Poison Resistance" and "Curse Resistance". It should be hard to curse.

"Curse Resistance Disabled and Poison Resistance Disabled are curses. And he was poisoned, too. The poison of the Five-headed Serpent (Zargozteller). Oops, it's pretty rare, and it's so poisonous that the eyeballs pop."

"Right."

In the "Curse Resistance" of the ring that Lecan holds, he probably couldn't resist the "Curse Resistance Invalidity" of that grace. When conflicting effects collide, the more powerful wins. It's for granted.

"It's a dark vessel with a grace dagger tied to the thread of the Spotted Spider (Hadrin). Nasty weapon. It would be rather nasty to use it."

"Wait. Did Edda help me curse you?

"Yes. I've been desperately trying to recover."

"You taught me you can't break the curse in Recovery."

"Yes. Normally, the curse cannot be broken. But I can solve it."

Lekan didn't feel like asking ahead. But I knew I couldn't do it without asking.

"In what case?"

"If the user has the talent of Purification (Feela). When such a user desperately (recovers) from a cursed patient, the effect of" purification "may be added to the" recovery ". It's a rare thing."

"Purification" should also be available for Nike, but if it is used, the person will perish.

That means that if it weren't for Edda here, and if Edda hadn't awakened her sleeping talent, Lekan would have died.

"And the poison, too. I gave him a drink because I had a green potion, but maybe Eda's Recovery is more poisonous. It's my daughter, really."

The effect of the green potion is detoxification. But Edda's "recovery" worked better than that. "Recovery" works against the symptoms caused by the poison, but does not eliminate the poison itself. in Purification.

"Lecan. Even an adventurer like you dies when he dies. There's something strange about pets, so don't be alarmed."

"I remember the liver"

"Why did you fight the assassin in the woods?"

"... right. We should have lured him out to a big place."

"You seem to have high-precision detection, and you're quick, so you're good at brawling in narrow places, right?

"Oh."

"That confidence will destroy you."

"Mr. Nike. Enough is enough. Lekan is reflecting too."

"If that's what Edda says, I'll give her a break tonight."

"Thank you."

"You're hungry. Let's make it dinner."

"I like that."

In his still slightly blurred mind, Lekan thought that he needed to be free to manipulate the Flame Spear with his left hand. Come to think of it, you can only use a highly accurate (Flaming Spear) with your right hand, because there is no advantage to using both swords and magic.

Then there's the gear that can resist the curse. I have to get it as soon as possible.

Equipped with Zana's Guardian Stone, it has the effect of "Deactivate Curse". Due to the performance of this stone, it is considered to be a fairly powerful effect. But I'm usually going to raise myself without equipping myself with this stone. So I want other gear that can resist the curse.

In the world that Lecan also took, a curse is a laborious thing, and he often noticed it if he was about to be put on. The effect, too, was not so terrifying. At least, that was the curse Lekan was under.

So I wasn't really interested in gear and technique to counter the curse. Even when I came here, I didn't possess anything like that, except a silver ring.

But in this world, it seems a little different.

Immediate curses seem to exist for the time being, and their effects are powerful.

Nevertheless, I didn't know there was a curse called "Curse Resistance Disabled" etc.

It was only a matter of time before I was down.

As soon as the battle was over, Nike and Eda rushed for me, and the time it took to treat me, it didn't seem that long.

During the meal, my cheeks and mouth hurt badly. If you put your hands together, you have a big scar. But this place was severely mutilated, and even the bones should have been swept out and shredded, but not so big a scratch.

"Thanks to Eda. I treated your cheeks carefully, carefully, over and over again."

"Right, Edda. Thanks."

"Eh heh heh"

"By tomorrow, you should give it a little time and call me back again and again. Perhaps the scar disappears completely. It's gonna be a good practice for Edda."

"Eh heh heh"

"As for recovery, Edda is better than Lecan already."

"Eh heh heh. Oh, yeah. Both of you, listen to me."

"What is it, Edda?"

"I think you should name it, this party"

"Oh, that would be nice"

"Are you there, I don't know your name"

"Even when you take a request, you can take it by party name, not by personal name. Something convenient."

"Hmm."

"So, Eda. Did you come up with any good party names?

"I don't know about this."

Edda took a small bag out of her nose, looking important. What came out of it was a tiny little stone.

"This is Rainbow Stone."

"Rainbow Stone of Happiness"

"Willard?"

Will's Stone.

"I know the stone. What is Will?

"Seven colors of luminescence in the sky after the rain."

"Oh, I see. Rainbow (Will)? Rainbow Stone. Okay."

"It's something that white dairy stones can mix with red and green ore. This is red, orange, yellow, green, blue, purple and pretty. When I put white, it's seven colors. Yeah. That's a bit of a rare stone."

"Rainbow Stone of Happiness"

"What the hell is that?

"If you have this, it's a good thing."

"Did someone give it to you?

"My dad gave it to my mom, and she gave it to me."

"So, your uncle, your mum and you, you're happy now?

"Yes. My father could marry my mother. My mother gave birth to a temple. I met Lekan, Sheila and Nike."

That, looking like the three of us, was actually the two of us, Lekan thought, but he didn't say it.

"I see. Nice stone, isn't it? All right, all right. Willard is our party name now."

"Yay! Yay."

"Eda."

"Yeah? What is it, Lecan?"

"How old are you?

"Huh? I'm fourteen."

"Yeah. Huh? Really, Edda."

"Really."

"I thought I was only about fifteen years old at best, but I was fourteen"

"Wait a minute. At fourteen, you can't have the Adventurer's Chapter issued, can you?

The nobility grows up at the age of fourteen, but the civilians are fifteen adults.

"Ah, the Adventurers' Association is supposed to be fifteen."

"Oh, my God."

"Your father is already dead."

"Yeah."

"Is the mother, a survivor?

"Monmei?

"Is he alive?

"No. My mother died and the village chief's blubber son rambled me out of the village."

Cheney's carriage was escorted by me.

"Yeah."

"How many times was that a request?

"First request!

How can you say it with your chest up?

Lecan got a little headache.

"Yeah. Really, Edda's stone could be a lucky stone."

A daughter of only fourteen years of age, without such public knowledge, without power, knowledge or backshield, has come out of the village alone, without deceit, without miserable eyes, and is now building her position as a full adventurer. I was borrowed a magic item called "Isiah's Bow," and I met my magic master. Nothing but luck.

"I knew I would! That's what you do!

"You, you'll never know what that means."

"That's okay! I'm lucky, that's why I'm happy now."

"Right. That's what matters."

"Yes."

"My head hurts. I'm going to bed."

"Oh, I'll call you before I go to bed."

"... please"

I thought while sleeping.

I was wondering what that raid was.

Zach had Dobol present for a conversation with Lekan.

That would be to teach Lekan that it was his father's.

As a result, Dobol attacked Lekan with a guido.

Did you send him to be present to attack?

Or did you think that if you weren't prepared enough to know that Lekan was his father's temper to not move, you wouldn't be able to do it first?

I don't know.

I don't have enough material to judge.

One thing is clear is that this no longer hinders Lekan from being hired by Zach.

Zach Zykers, not like or dislike, judge things by their gain or loss. No matter what kind of greetings you had with Lekan, you will pay him as long as Lekan helps.

Perhaps after Malarkis died, it is possible that he took Dobol and let Lekan finish him off.

In any case, it is a way of doing it without blood or tears.

However, as an employer of adventurers, a human being without blood or tears is not a bad idea. Conversely, a loving employer can be extremely troublesome when the relationship is going well but he dislikes it. In that regard, human beings without blood or tears keep their promises, even when circumstances and relationships change. It was originally just a matter of bonding each other with promises.

Most of all, Zach Zykers has strong feelings. There is a strong desire to reproduce and flourish the territory and property. Human beings with strong emotions sometimes act beyond reason.

Lecan doesn't like Zach. Probably won't take Zach's request in the future. But if it wasn't to harm Cheney directly, you could take the request once or twice depending on the reward, so much so that I felt I understood Zach. At that time, Zach will also pay for the wasabi about this raid on Dobol.

In terms of letting Lekan understand that, this encounter is Zach's win.
