The Hero’s Brother Is Bound To Be Depressed - Chapter 226
227 – Amnesia
When the word unexpected and positive elements are combined, the joy is multiplied. Unexpected benefit, unexpected help. Just like the joy of having a movie you watched without expectations become the movie of your life, the joy of finding an unexpected ally to help you through a difficult future had the effect of relieving a heavy burden from your heart.
As Roel suggested, there is no need to risk moving forward, just enjoy a comfortable academy life with the members and watch the Demon King die. I will obey Roel’s words obediently so as not to worry for nothing. Passengers just need to listen carefully to the bus driver.
I was so happy that I could shed tears of joy, to the point where my old feelings of inferiority had faded away due to the happiness.
“… “S.”
Now worries about an uncertain future are gone. You can enjoy the life of a possessed person with a lighter mind. During winter vacation, it’s worth thinking about taking Luna on a trip to a southern resort. Things I want to do that I couldn’t even think of until now keep popping into my head.
It’s not a bad idea to go hiking with Messiah members. Kane, who loves camping, and Rakar, who loves being with her friends, won’t say no. Luna will like it because she has me, and Aria can easily seduce her by offering to grill her meat.
I imagine all sorts of things about whether the joy I have always suppressed due to worry and anxiety will compensate for my sorrow. Let’s make fried chicken noodles? good night. Let’s make corn cheese and give it to Luna and Aria as a gift.
“Loss…!”
Someone caught me. The feeling of floating in the sky, as if I was hallucinating, disappeared, and it felt like my vision suddenly returned. Before that, I was so distracted that I didn’t know what I was looking at. I didn’t even know that I was back in the club room.
Luna, who was holding me, was looking up at me with an anxious face. I hugged Luna with a simple smile. I could feel my smile growing deeper as I felt the warmth in her arms.
“Everything is okay now. There is nothing to be anxious about or worry about. “There are only happy things left to do in the future.”
At my words, Luna wriggled in my arms and pulled her face out. Luna, her expression full of confusion, pushed me slightly and got out of her arms.
It’s a little disappointing to see such an awkward reaction in a situation where I can’t even dance for joy. However, Luna, who does not know my worries and anxieties, would not be able to understand. Because I didn’t know that the world would be on the verge of destruction in the future. I am the only one who can be happy about an unexpected collaborator.
But Luna’s next words were unexpected.
“It’s okay, it’s okay Ross… ?”
“huh? Of course it’s okay.”
Even if my parents suddenly appear and slap me in the face and personally attack me in front of Luna, I can still smile with joy. Of course it’s okay.
But Luna looked at me blankly with an expression that said she didn’t believe what I was saying. How will she prove that I am okay? Is it really a dance?
Luna reached out and grabbed my hand. Then she raised her hand and showed it to me. The hand that caught my eye had an ugly appearance. Luna said with tears in her eyes.
“My fists are covered in wounds and my school uniform is covered in blood… ?”
The hand was shattered to the point where the white bones were exposed. I looked at my smashed hand foolishly for a moment. When did this happen… ? The film didn’t stop because I was drinking. I didn’t even feel the pain until Luna showed me my hand.
It’s not just one hand. The other hand was equally hideously torn and shattered. I don’t know how I got hurt. However, how the injury occurred can be guessed from recent experience.
I hit the wall with my fist. And desperately, with all my might.
A question arises. I don’t know why, but I don’t have the hobby of hurting myself with joy even if the film stops for a moment. Then there is no way to explain why this wound occurred.
Luna looked at my hand and cried.
“Roh, Ross… Let’s start with the ward. Treat your hands first… .”
Saying that, Luna tried to drag me to the ward. But I couldn’t move because of the strange feeling of discomfort rising in my chest. I had the feeling that if I missed this trail, I would never catch up again.
I looked back on my memories before I met Luna. After my conversation with Rosalyn, I said thank you and left the classroom. And when I came to my senses, I had arrived at the club room.
In the meantime, there was a reason why I hit the wall with my fist. Why can’t I remember? I raised my head and checked the clock hanging on the wall. At least an hour had passed since I parted ways with Rosaline. An hour of blank space. I mumbled out of my mouth without realizing it.
“why… “You don’t remember, do you?”
An hour has passed, but no memories remain in my mind. There is not even a trace except for the bloodied fist.
Luna, who was trying to drag me to the ward, flinched greatly at my mumbling.
“Ross, what did you just say…” ?”
“I don’t remember. “After a brief conversation with senior Rosalind, she returned to the club room and had no memory of the hour in between.”
Luna pursed her lips. She must have remembered something, so she frowned slightly and said, “No way…” “She muttered. Was I like this often?
“Have I ever lost my memory before?”
Luna thought for a moment, shook her head and said.
“Ah, anyway, let’s go to the ward first. I need to get treatment quickly… !”
Luna can’t lie. Her emotions show in her facial expressions, so you can tell at a glance whether she’s angry or happy. So it was very obvious that she was changing the topic, but she had no choice but to follow her because of her worried eyes.
Luna couldn’t refuse my request. After treatment, if you ask for an explanation, you won’t be able to refuse.
I followed Luna out of the club room and headed to the ward.
The clue to the sense of discomfort has already been found. An hour of blank space. What happened in between would be the reason why I punched the wall with all my might.
When Luna urgently knocked on the ward door, Professor Joy with a tired expression opened the door. Professor Joy looked at Luna and I and said with a sad expression.
“Isn’t it already too early to come to the ward?”
Luna shook her head with an apologetic expression and showed Professor Joy her hand. Professor Joy looked pitiful after checking the wound on my hand.
“You said that last time… “Do you think it’s cool to hit the wall with your fist?”
When he motioned for me to come in, I entered the ward without saying a word. The ward was empty, as if no one was injured. Luna came after me, probably trying to soothe my pain, as she eagerly stroked my waist.
As I sat down in the chair, Professor Joy brought me a wet cloth.
“Let’s clean the blood first and disinfect it. “Tell me if it hurts.”
Unlike his annoyed expression, his hands wiping away the blood are careful and delicate. I hit the wall so hard that when I wiped off the blood, I frowned at the visible wound.
“This would have been a lot of pain. “You must be really angry?”
Professor Joy, who was wiping away the blood while speaking sarcastically, suddenly stopped while wiping the blood from the other hand.
“Blood keeps flowing from your left arm?”
As Professor Joy said, even though I wiped away the blood, blood continued to flow from my uniform and wet my hands. When asked to take off my top, I took off my school uniform with Luna’s help. Luna, who had taken off her blood-soaked sleeve and handed it to her, suddenly flinched and sucked in her breath as if she was surprised.
There was a large wound on the forearm above the wrist that looked like it had been cut by a knife. As the school uniform that covered the wound disappeared, blood began to flow at a rapid rate.
Professor Joy threw away the cloth and hastily took a bottle out of the cabinet.
“It’s a disinfectant with a little potion in it. Disinfection and hemostasis can be done at the same time with this. Just endure the pain for a little while. “As soon as I’m done, I’ll pour you as much sedative potion as you want.”
Professor Joy opened the lid with a short warning and poured disinfectant on my left arm. He gritted his teeth as his skin burned. Luna, who was fidgeting next to me and stamping her feet, patted my back diligently. That alone definitely felt like some of the pain went away.
After pouring in the disinfectant, Professor Joy wiped his bubbling, red-foaming arm with a freshly clean cloth. I looked down and endured the pain.
At that time, I heard Luna’s surprised voice in my ears.
“oh! The writing, the letters… !”
I looked up again at Luna’s words. Professor Joy, who was wiping off the disinfectant, shifted his gaze to my forearm, which I was staring at blankly.
The bleeding that covered the wound with blood stopped. Thanks to Professor Joy wiping off the disinfectant with a cloth, I was able to see the wound properly.
On his forearm was a letter made out of scars.
It was a crooked letter that seemed to have been left on the skin with something sharp so as not to forget it. Judging by the area of the wound, it seemed like it was probably my fault. Since he is right-handed, it would have been easier to leave something on his left forearm.
Luna and Professor Joey’s gaze landed on my face. But I had no memory, so I had no answer.
Just thinking. I wondered why he had to desperately pound the wall with his fist, leaving a scar on my forearm, without even thinking about moving to find a pen on the spot.
It’s an unfamiliar word to me. I know the first two letters better than anyone else, but the one letter after them makes it unfamiliar. Even if I think about it, nothing comes to mind. Judging from the fact that the two people seem to want me to explain, it is not a popular saying these days. So how did I write this?
This was the word that hurt created.
