060.

Delat or Windor.

Is the timing to face the heroes always like this?

This is enough to be considered as being manipulated by someone.

The laments keep coming out, but there’s nothing special.

something that has already happened.

Clearing the misunderstanding was the first priority.

“I can explain.”

Windor stomped his foot in response to the subdued vibration.

Perhaps feeling that Shin Seong-jin’s rampage was over, he chinned.

“say it.”

What do I have to hide here?

A feather that holds Yuria’s existence and mighty divine power.

The moment both of them enter his ears, they will not be able to escape the Empire’s investigation.

So let me reveal the truth.

It’s because it’s a situation where you can make him understand even if you tell him except what you have to hide anyway.

“You must know that I worked with Brat to solve the case regarding the Black Mist.”

“mmm, I did hear that. But did it take that long? I heard it was fixed a few months ago.”

For you, it would have been over in a matter of days.

So, what are heroes?

It seems like everyone lacks empathy.

“Then we continued our journey and reached Dawngrid. I happened to meet the mercenary younger brother who turned his face here.”

“So you came all the way here while helping him? Then the situation turned around like a beggar and you had no choice but to move to stop it?”

“That’s right.”

“But it is strange.”

Windor narrowed the distance.

There was no bird to react.

He was standing right in front of him with his arms crossed.

“If you are with mercenaries, the purpose will be robbery at all costs, and from your point of view, there would be no reason to intervene in the affairs of this place, right?”

“As a warrior, it was something I couldn’t pass on.”

“Does the hero help with robbery? Why would a guy who should know that it’s illegal do that?”

It’s obsessive.

I can still release it with ease.

“The sister of the mercenary I am helping is sick. We promised to help with a deal, but I wanted to see him walk.”

“hmm… , Is the mercenary’s name Tom?”

“yes?”

how do you know him

Could I have met you here?

“Hey, you said the world is small, and you were right. Right? A mercenary named Locke helping Tom! You are right.”

“It is, but… .”

“It seems that the outrage has been safely stopped, then follow me. Because I know where Tom is.”

It was also here that I met Tom.

Apparently I met him when I touched the central control room’s defenses, fortunately.

Because if I had faced him as a corpse, the bed would have been troubled.

But why?

“honey. This child, he is tightly bound by his own trauma.”

Even though everything was over, Tom was still fighting alone.

The woman, who appeared to be Windor’s wife, stared at Tom worriedly.

“I couldn’t interfere even with my magical powers. If you do this, this child will lose his mind.”

“You just have to stop that.”

For some reason, Windor seemed to know Tom’s family affairs well.

When Tom dies, Rico is left alone.

It means that you have to live your whole life with a limp on your left foot, with no place to lean on in this world.

Windor swallowed his saliva and stepped out.

He tried to intervene in Tom’s problems by following the woman’s words, but it didn’t seem easy.

“no. Tom’s ego is too strong.”

“What is the cause?”

approached them

I wonder if I might be dehydrated from the cold sweat I shed.

Her pale skin, her body trembling like an aspen tree.

It was a sight that wouldn’t be strange even if you stopped breathing right away.

“The Dwarf Archmage Nabrain has cast a spell to weaken the mind. He must have been thinking of taking advantage of the weakened gap to occupy Tom’s body. But look at this. It’s a magic that persists even if the caster dies. Isn’t this a curse?”

“For the survival of the race, mental magic has been improved to be more durable and powerful.”

“Catherine, is there really no way?”

Seeing Windor’s earnest daylight, Katrin sighed softly.

“Even if you can open the road, it’s difficult because you can’t enter. There must be someone with a stronger will than us… That should be enough for the owner of the Tower of Truth to come.”

The reason I couldn’t help Tom was simple.

for lack of mental strength.

That was all.

‘It’s a problem that doesn’t apply to me.’

A decision was made.

I’m a bit reluctant to show off my talents in front of them, but Tom was like the first relationship I had with this world.

To be honest, I feel closer than the Aden party because I personally shared great achievements and went through many things together.

It must be because they have seen the fierce life of this man directly through the monitor.

“I will do it.”

Catherine’s eyes widened, as if surprised by my remark.

“but… It’s not a problem that should come. We need to quickly break through the mental barrier so that the child’s soul is not harmed.”

she stopped me

Well, that’s something even heroes couldn’t do.

He must have thought it was impossible for me, a mercenary’s colleague, to do it.

Fortunately, Windor had a different idea from Katrin.

“Catherine. Let’s believe it.”

“honey. It’s not an issue to be approached lightly. At least finding a weak spot and allowing us to enter… .”

“Can he survive until then?”

Catherine was silent.

Honestly, it was because it was a miracle to hold on for an hour.

“He is him. did i say that before? A boy who looked like Delart and was filthy reticent came to the meeting of heroes.”

It’s kind of insulting that he looks like Delat.

I can’t argue, so let’s be quiet.

“ah! The one who punished the Archbishop of Amtheism… .”

“My name is Lokram.”

“I heard a lot from my husband. You even received Mr. Brat’s approval.”

“To be honest, I didn’t want to take it, but that’s how it turned out. Anyway, please make your decision. If you open the way, I will try.”

“all right. My husband told me to believe it, so let’s start right away.”

Katrin put her hand on Tom’s temple.

If you like it, will you resemble it?

Both have the same wavy hair.

Even the magic power is similar, so it’s strange at this point.

‘no way.’

Windor, the spirit sorcerer.

With similar magical powers and similar appearances.

It seemed that my guess was right.

‘I came from a world without borders, but this is a world without dimensional boundaries.’

A hero who married a spirit.

Surprisingly, it was not the time to be buried there.

“Take Tom’s hand, Mr. Lokram.”

At Catherine’s signal, he took Tom’s hand.

Then, in an instant, I felt my soul being sucked into me.

That doesn’t mean I’ve lost my focus.

My mental strength was as strong as a reef in the face of a huge typhoon.

‘hmm.’

Calmly observe the situation.

First of all, I know that this is Tom’s mental world.

It’s all dark.

I feel a strange torrent, but this must be a mental barrier.

‘I have to break through this quickly.’

Even the slightest delay causes irreparable scars on Tom’s soul.

This will become an irreversible condition, and its effects will appear on the actual body.

It looks risky, but honestly I wasn’t thrilled.

‘Why can’t I break through this?’

From nob le mt l dot com

Just as a genius cannot understand a criminal who cannot imitate his organs, I did not understand a hero who cannot do what he should, like breathing.

Yes, it was because I broke through by walking.

“hmm.”

The destination was a burning village.

All kinds of desperate screams abound.

It was a part that seemed to know what kind of trauma Tom had.

‘Black flames. Is it the work of demons dealing with black flames?’

It will never turn off without divine power.

The tough and tenacious black salt was burning the village and life.

‘It has no effect on my soul.’

It meant that it was a space created solely to weaken Tom’s spirit.

So there were limits to what I could intervene.

‘Physical intervention seems impossible. Is mental intervention everything?’

The lack of heat was proof of that.

Second, everyone who burns is not seeking help from me.

They are looking at one side incessantly.

When I went there, I was able to find out why I had come here.

“You dodged well. Move as if you know the future. It’s interesting, but it’s not fun because it doesn’t live up to expectations.”

The demon who burned the village yawns as if it is bored.

As you can see, it’s an intermediate level demon.

Even now, he is an easy opponent for me.

But not to Tom.

It was a wall that could not be crossed by a warrior who could not even win the battle.

“fun. You’re just for stress relief.”

“hmm?”

“not me! That this was my everything! But what are you! What the heck, he’s taking it all to have some fun!”

how many died

And how many more repeats?

Even though it is worn out as it wears out, the warrior does not bend.

On the contrary, no matter how many times they burst out, they let out insufficient resentment.

“Absolutely evil. Fear of walking. A reaper who extorts life. The one who looks down on everything.”

The demon spread its wings made of skin.

“It’s a demon.”

The guy burst the black flame.

To resist that, Tom was at his limit.

As expected, he turned to ashes without even giving a final word.

And time goes backwards.

It was the reason Tom’s soul was dying.

‘How many times did I repeat this?’

Looking at Tom who opened his eyes again, he thought.

He lay down for a while.

He was muttering something as if he was organizing his thoughts.

Madness can be seen in the appearance of not blinking an eye.

The single thought of cutting him drove away the fear of death.

He didn’t even realize that he was running towards his death.

I know why.

I had no choice but to know.

‘One thought for revenge.’

It was absurd.

I’ve seen the case of the awakening of Confucianism in a set of books or introductions of characters, but I’ve never heard of an awakening imminent in such an environment.

‘There was no need to intervene in the first place.’

I came because I was worried because I didn’t know the situation.

Tom was still growing.

He didn’t realize it himself, but he got up after organizing the feedback from the previous episode.

As if to minimize the consumption of physical strength, he moved slowly with a limp gait.

‘I just need to push my back a little bit.’

Does the Archmage Dwarf know?

The act of trying to take over his body accelerated his growth.

“Are you the last survivor of this town? I was going to burn it all up, but lucky me.”

He doesn’t even respond to the welcome greetings from the demons as if he’s tired of it.

Instead, Tom lunged at him.

Although he was only an existence materialized by his trauma, he swung his sword with all his heart.

It’s time to step out

“Go on.”

“… … !”

Hearing my voice, Tom’s aura shook.

However, it quickly stabilized and put pressure on the demons.

They move as if they are used to it, as if they can avoid it even with their eyes closed.

It was such a familiar workshop.

“continue.”

Tom followed me.

Dodge all the demons’ attacks and counterattack.

His strength was weak, but his sword had will.

Auror responds incessantly.

The flower buds were about to bloom.

A puzzle necessary for his awakening.

I was thinking of throwing it now.

‘They said that what was needed to awaken the flames was an opportunity and confidence.’

An opportunity to push yourself to the limit.

Confidence that you can surpass it.

Tom lacked confidence in himself.

It was something that his personality could never fill when he was alone.

But now that I intervene, whom I want to rely on the most and say I am a source of strength.

“Don’t stop. Don’t even doubt it. Think of what’s left of you. Take responsibility for what you have to be responsible for.”

I instilled confidence.

I solved the last puzzle.

His aura was sharpened and extended to the tip of his body.

Like twigs growing from a side branch, the aura that filled Tom’s body and then disappeared stood on the sword again.

“Are you sure?”

“… yes.”

“Then pour everything in.”

Tom and his aura are sure.

That’s why he lit his own flame brilliantly.

‘The village that established one’s ego, the mercenary experience to fulfill one’s responsibilities as the head of the family, the heart to slash the target of revenge called the demon. Everything meshed.’

With it, the form was built.

“That black… what?”

The demons show hostility for the first time.

It was not an ordinary aura, but I took a step backwards in front of the flames of an aura that spewed white flames as if they were scorching.

“The sword that cuts down demons… .”

Tom, who had his own controversy, disappeared.

Seoeo-eok!

“What… does not make sense… !”

He cut through his trauma.

The mental world that had imprisoned him collapsed along with the demons that were split in half.

I just got on board with the flow.

It wasn’t long before I felt my mind settle into my body.

“Oh, I thought it was over?”

“What a relief. Tom, are you awake?”

The couple’s voice announces that it is real.

I was still holding Tom’s hand.

His hands, which would have been limp before, are quite strong.

When I looked up, Tom was looking at me with half-open eyes.

“swimming… I had a nightmare, a terrible dream… What is Locke doing? Thanks to that, I was able to wake up early. thank you… .”

I couldn’t even lift a hand, but I barely nodded my head.

I put my hand on Tom’s eyelid.

I tossed out a word to let him rest a little longer.

“Don’t dream this time, sleep.”

“yes… .”

“From now on, I will call you my brother.”

“yes… , Locke bro.”

breathing is even

Tom, who has fallen asleep as if passed out, won’t have nightmares.

So, before Tom wakes up, we should gather the expedition team and get ready to go out.

But why are you looking at it that way?

“To say you’re my brother… Is it cool?”

“Is this what men’s friendship is?”

It is the admiration, not the admiration of two couples who are equally mouthed.

I awkwardly scratched my temple and stood up.

Is it because I did something I didn’t do?

I wanted to leave this place once.
