Episode 122 New companion (9)
It’s already been 5 minutes since the confrontation between Luna and Leger began.
‘It’s over.’
At first, I thought Luna might change her mind.
But no.
Luna turned her back on Leger and crossed her arms tightly.
Then he closed his mouth tightly.
No matter how much Leger cried, his will to never look back was conveyed to where I was.
‘Soon Leger will run away.’
Because he is such a timid child. You won’t be able to survive this situation.
It was a good thing for me.
Because Luna cleaned up the trouble herself.
‘Have I grown mentally a little?’
When I was thinking that I should spend some time comforting Luna today.
sparkle-.
Bangs hanging like a curtain. Leger’s eyes, hidden behind them, glowed slightly.
At the same time, the atmosphere changed.
‘… … Has the skill been activated?’
I opened the [Information Window] and looked through Leger’s skill list.
Box making, concentration, hiding, white hair, danger detection, passive life, timid struggle, and finally, the Leria family line.
‘Among these, the skill that is presumed to be activated now is… … .’
It is only an unidentified B-grade skill called [Timid Struggle].
Regé suddenly bursts out of the box. Her behavior was amazing.
Suddenly-.
He bit Luna’s forearm.
This is not a joke or a metaphor.
Leger opened his small mouth as wide as possible and bit into Luna’s forearm.
“W-what!”
“Hey, friend… … .”
“huh?”
“When you find someone you want to be friends with… … “I told you to do it this way.”
When Luna and Leger met at Rodelin’s request.
Advice given by Luna, who said she would give some useful tips for making friends.
-Yes, yes! I’ll tell you one useful tip for making friends. When you find someone you want to be friends with… … .
-Well, what if you find it?
– Just ask.
Now, Leger was faithfully carrying out those instructions. While shedding tears.
Was it a memory of that day? Luna’s eyes became a little moist.
“you’re stupid? There’s no way I can be your friend like this. “The only person like that is the pervert over there!”
Luna, why are you suddenly attacking me?
Anyway, Luna shouted loudly, but Leger did not open his mouth.
Instead, he held Luna’s arm tightly with both arms and pressed them even closer.
“… … “Why are you doing this?”
“Yes, yes… … .”
Leger desperately squeezed his voice.
“Chi, because I want to be friends.”
Leger is trembling and desperately holding on to Luna’s arm.
Luna muttered to her.
“… … Are you really okay with me? “I have a nasty personality, I’m violent, and I don’t know how to be nice to my friends.”
“Gwae, it’s okay. me too… … .”
Because it’s the same.
Leger smiled sadly. Tears came to Luna’s eyes when she saw that smile.
“Sorry about earlier. I didn’t mean it. me too… … “I wanted to be friends with you.”
“Really?”
“of course. We are friends from today. Well, I already have a lot of friends, but the more friends I have, the better.”
Is it to hide the tears? Luna hugged Leger tightly.
Hey, it’s a youth drama, it’s a youth drama.
It’s so beautiful that I want to destroy it right away.
A damn youth drama was unfolding before my eyes.
Clap clap-!
I applauded and approached them.
“Hehe, Miss Luna. Congratulations on your second friend.”
“Everyone, shut up! “I really have a lot of friends!?”
Yes~ Yes, I guess so~.
I’d like to tease him more, but now isn’t the time.
“Hehe, would you like to look at me for a moment?”
“… … I’ll be going soon.”
Luna, who had calmed Leger down, followed me obediently.
One thing is, you know that we have something to sort out between us.
“Are you mad?”
“Hehe, me?”
“… … “You’re angry.”
It’s just as Luna said. I am very angry.
So much so that the clueless Luna noticed it.
Luna’s gaze towards Leger.
Because I was able to recognize one thing in those eyes.
Luna.
‘I plan to accept Leger as a colleague.’
So it was natural for me to be angry.
I told you not to welcome me as a colleague like that, but you decided to do so.
“It’s okay to be friends. But we can’t go together.”
“why?”
“It would actually put that child in danger.”
Luna is the child of a traitor family.
On the surface, I have the talent to devour an empire.
We must take revenge on the dark evil that made us like this.
“I’m even cursed by the devil. “If that child is with us, will he be able to survive?”
The quest to catch the hidden boss is disguised as ‘The Devil’s Curse’.
If Leger knew that we would have to fight demons periodically, it wouldn’t be surprising if he passed out right now.
Luna thought for a moment and slowly opened her mouth.
“I never abandon my friends.”
It will happen. Because Luna is that kind of kid.
That’s why I’m trying to get them out before their relationship gets any closer.
“I’m not saying to throw it away, I’m saying to move away from it.”
“I don’t even distance myself from my friends.”
Luna is more stubborn than I thought.
Can not help it. We have no choice but to come out strong here too.
I opened my mouth while using the [Open Eyes] skill.
“Then I can’t help it. “I have no choice but to leave.”
“… … !”
Luna’s eyes widened.
It will be a shock. Since he even opened his eyes, it must have been clear that he was sincere.
Luna’s answer to this is… … .
“You are my friend too. “I don’t abandon friends?”
“Hehe, that’s unreasonable. Now, we are in a situation where we have no choice but to abandon one side. “You choose between me and Miss Leger.”
“… … “I won’t throw you both away.”
He is very stubborn.
It won’t work. I have to at least pretend to leave the party… … .
“I just need to become stronger.”
“… … yes?”
“I just need to become stronger. Enough to protect everyone.”
This is really nonsense.
A topic that even Dyke can’t defeat, let alone the Four Heavenly Kings.
“I’m serious, Zero.”
Luna’s eyes lit up.
Able to know. Even if I actually leave here, they will continue to cling to me and bother me.
The last time I pushed Luna away, the eyes of the academy kids cheering for our relationship followed me all day long.
The same thing will happen this time, and there is a high probability that future activities will be restricted.
‘… … It’s a little annoying.’
We can’t give up Luna, who has grown well, just because of Leger.
Above all, it wasn’t easy for me to abandon Luna, who was so loyal to me.
Because Luna will support me no matter what situation comes in the future.
He said with a deep sigh.
“All right. “Let us accept Miss Leger.”
“really?”
“Instead, there is a condition.”
“… … condition?”
“We’re going to start training. “It’s also very strict.”
“good. However, only as long as Leger’s stamina is within reach. “You can’t force yourself to do anything.”
After nodding, I continued speaking.
“Understand if Leger leaves after finding out Miss Luna’s secret. “It means don’t get hurt.”
“That’s what… … of course.”
A bitter smile appeared on Luna’s lips.
Although they were falsely accused, it is true that they are currently being treated as a traitorous family.
Leger may die of a heart attack.
And one more thing.
“Ms. Leger needs my permission to leave the party.”
“… … what do you mean?”
“This means that if Miss Leger wants to leave our party, she can only do so after receiving my permission.”
You must continue to travel with me until you receive my permission.
In other words, unless I give permission, Leger must remain in our party.
“That’s too…” … “Isn’t this a poison clause?”
“You probably saw it last time. “A portal to go somewhere else.”
A portal to where the hidden boss, Lein, is located.
Luna nodded.
“As you know, I am under a curse. I’m in a situation where I have to fight the devil, and if I give up right before that, there will be a big setback in the strategy I’ve planned. “I can’t take that risk.”
You planned a strategy that included Leger, but he runs away right before the attack?
It was perfect for getting stabbed. Of course, if we are still alive then. anyway.
“It is only after that that Miss Leger can leave the party. Even if you leave then, I don’t plan on holding you back.”
“… … .”
“If you cannot agree, you cannot accept Miss Leger.”
“… … This isn’t my decision. “I think we should listen to your opinion.”
After nodding, Luna brought Leger.
Briefly explained the current situation.
Since I had seen the Leger portal during the attack on Le Hain, there was no difficulty in explaining it.
“Well, I… … “It’s okay.”
“really?”
“Well, it’s scary, but… … But, I’ll try to hold on.”
Oh wow, your will is quite strong.
So much so that I want to pat his head and praise him.
Well, despite his strong will, he will run away as soon as he becomes the target of an attack.
“Don’t worry too much. “If Zero holds on to you and won’t let you go, I will solve it.”
“Hehe, you’re not trying to use violence against your friend, are you?”
“You can use it on yourself. Anyway, it’s done now, right? “Are we going to be friends from now on?”
It’s really urgent.
Clap clap. He said, clapping his hands a couple of times.
“Yes, congratulations again on your second friend.”
“Two, it’s not the second time!?”
Luna even threw up her arms and expressed her intention not to do so.
Leger saw that and let out a small laugh.
That’s how I welcomed Leger as my second party member.
‘Legera… … .’
If I had come out strong, Luna would have eventually had no choice but to give up on Leger.
Because I allowed us to be friends in the first place. Luna would have been satisfied with that too.
That’s why I accepted Leger.
Are you moved by their youth drama? No way.
There are as many as three reasons for this.
First, as I said before, it can be used as a shield in a crisis situation.
However, it has become a more useful shield than before.
Luna recognized Leger as a friend.
‘But what if Leger dies?’
After that, Luna will obediently follow my words.
You will realize that you have to be a strong party member, and that your choice caused Leger’s death.
‘A horse that can help Luna grow mentally. ‘It might not be that bad to use it that much.’
Even though Leger is a master at running away, that doesn’t mean he can avoid death.
Second, because it can be used for a while.
Chapter 2 has just begun.
There is no one who can threaten Leger.
The condition for Leger to leave the battlefield is when he becomes an ‘attack target’, and Leger’s [Stealth] skill is S-level.
There is no way that enemies in the low-level section can find Leger.
‘If there is something like a wide-area or full-scale attack, it’s a different story… … .’
In Chapter 2, the number of people using wide-range attacks is so small that you can count them on one hand.
Needless to say, the entire attack aircraft.
‘In other words, even a leger like that can play the role of a long-distance dealer for the time being.’
There was a downside to Leger taking away experience points, but it was worth giving up.
And the last third.
‘Why didn’t you run away?’
When Vineth attacked, Rezeda shot an arrow instead of running away after being stunned.
I thought it was strange, but now I know why.
A B-grade skill called [Timid Struggle].
‘That skill prevented the cowardice trait from activating.’
What if that skill becomes A-level or S-level?
Leger may not leave the battlefield.
Then there will be more places where you can use it.
You can freely use bug characters with a 100% hit rate.
I thought as I looked at Leger smiling inside the box.
‘100% hit rate, and it’s a bow… … .’
A good idea occurred to me.
“Hehehe… … .”
“What is that ominous smile? “What are you planning again?”
“What are you planning? “Such regretful words.”
“It’s suspicious… … .”
Luna took a alert stance while hugging Leger.
“How about spending some time together today? “We’ll start training right away tomorrow, so make sure you get plenty of rest.”
“huh? It doesn’t matter… … “Where are you going?”
Hehehe, that’s it.
“It’s a secret.”
After putting my index finger in front of my lips, I set out.
The destination is.
It was Dwenor’s healing pond.
