Chapter 39: I Defeat Myself

The most important thing about lying was to know when to stop and let others spin the rest for you. Robb understood this. The script he had planned for Snow Dew was about to begin.

As expected, Snow Dew immediately shut her mouth and put on a “Now you understand” expression.

The Baron immediately “understood”. He first cried out and then said, “I see. Just now, the priest saw the house being destroyed by the two-headed ogre and was furious. Anger is the source of the Berserker’s power, so the cursed ruby was activated. The soul of the Berserker, Doraemon’s essence, sealed inside, came out from the ruby and attached to the priest. Then, he temporarily controlled the priest’s body and used that incredible sword technique.”

“You’re really wise!” Snow Dew sighed. “I think things are just as you think.”

At this moment, El also “understood” and could not help but sigh. “So that’s how it is. No wonder, I can feel a powerful and indescribable power from this ruby. So it’s the power of an ancient hero. It’s really admirable.”

“So I picked up something this powerful?” Robb also pretended to be confused. “Wow, then I’ll be invincible in the future. When I’m angry, I can call him out with a ruby. I won’t be afraid of any monster anymore.”

“It’s not that easy.” Snow Dew smiled. “Using this gem has very detrimental side effects. Otherwise, it wouldn’t be called a cursed ruby. This gem stimulates the power of a hero. It’s not something an ordinary person’s body can withstand. You’ll immediately feel exhausted. Be it energy or physical strength, you’ll be exhausted. You’ll be as limp as a pile of mud for the next 49 days.”

“Eh? Eh?” Robb made a noise, and then another. “Ah? No wonder. I’ve been feeling weak since the beginning. I’m limp in the bathtub, and I don’t want to move at all. Good God, I’ve spent too much energy and stamina. Ah! No! I don’t want to be unable to move for 49 days. I’m a hard worker. I can’t be lazy like this. I want to get up and work. I love work.”

“This isn’t laziness. It’s magic. And that’s not all. If you keep it on you, it’ll keep sucking away your energy and stamina until you’re a corpse.”

“Ah? I don’t want to die!” Robb’s face twisted in pain. He struggled to get out of the bathtub, but it was futile. “This damn gem. It’s taking my energy and my strength. It’s trying to kill me!”

Robb threw out the ruby.

The secret treasure fell to the ground and rolled around.

The Baron cried out and reached out to pick it up from the ground, but El, who was beside him, suddenly pushed him away, preventing him from grabbing the gem on the ground. She said coldly, “Baron, didn’t you hear what the Mage just said? You can’t be tempted by this cursed secret treasure. Otherwise, you will be sucked dry by it.”

“But… but it contains the soul of the Berserker ancestor, Doraemon. I… I want his power. If I can perform a combo like him, I’ll be happy, even if it costs my life.”

“You’ve committed the sin of greed!” El raised the wooden staff in her hand and swung it at the Baron’s head. “Wake up!”

The blow woke the Baron up a little. He quickly calmed himself down. “Oh, right. Greed is a big sin. It will kill me.”

“Destroy it. We can’t let it stay in this world and harm people.” El swung her staff and slammed it into the ruby. There was a flash of red light, followed by a dull thud. El’s wooden staff bounced off and landed ten yards away.

“I’m not strong enough,” El shouted. “Baron, it’s up to you.”

The Baron gritted his teeth. He was actually extremely reluctant, but he still resolutely and resolutely pulled out his two-handed greatsword. His eyes turned blood-red, and he was furious. He raised his sword with both hands and raised it above his head. He shouted, “Break! Mountain! Slash!”

The two-handed greatsword was filled with the Baron’s anger as it slashed down on the cursed ruby. The violent blade immediately cut open the surface of the ruby. With a flash of red light, the magic power in the stone surged wildly, forming a strange whirlwind. It was as if a heroic voice could be heard laughing in the wind. “Hahahaha, hahahaha…”

The sound drifted, sounding like it’s moving further and further away. It felt good to dance. It had been a long time since…

In the end, the red light dissipated, and the originally bright red ruby became dim, like a worthless ordinary trash stone.

The Baron raised his two-handed greatsword high and made a victory gesture. Hot tears flowed from his red eyes as he roared, “I did it. I didn’t just cut a stone. I cut off my greed and desire. I crossed the most important threshold of growth. Hahahaha, I feel even stronger!”

Robb couldn’t help but give the Baron a thumbs up. “You win! The rarest trait for humans is to defeat themselves, and you did it. I have no doubt that your future achievements will be above the ancestor of the Berserkers, Doraemon… Because you can only surpass him without relying on him.”

“Hahaha, hahaha!” The Baron looked up at the sky and laughed. He carried his two-handed sword in a carefree manner and walked proudly to the barracks on the hill. Everything he had experienced today had become the most precious milestone in his life. It would motivate him to keep moving forward.

El walked away and quietly picked up his wooden staff. He said to Robb, who was in the bathtub, “Are you too weak to come out? Let me help you back to your room.”

“How could I?” Robb said. “I’m naked, and you’re a girl. It’s not proper.”

El shook her head. “When I’m saving lives, I’m no longer a woman but a messenger of God. It makes no difference to me whether you’re clothed or not. You’re just a frail patient now.”

“Well, I don’t think that’s a good idea,” Robb said. “I’ll rest a bit longer. I can get back on my own.”

Snow Dew chimed in, “Sister, it’s better if you don’t. I’ll help Mr. Robert back to his room. After all, I was the one who attracted the two-headed ogre this time. I’ll take responsibility.”

El thought about it carefully. Forget it. Seeing a young man’s body was still too embarrassing. Since the Mage was willing to help, she would just let it be.

She said coldly, “Then I’ll go to bed first. Good night.”
