A NEET’s Guide to the Parallel World: Healer, the Strongest Cheat?

"Father!

The scream I heard as soon as I opened the big door belonged to Sufilia.

Sieges are gathered before the throne, and there is the figure of one day the king with the buttocks.

The area was littered with the bodies of those involved, supposedly killed by the Sieges.

This is what corpses are all about.

Blood splashes everywhere.

Blood crossed the street and moved on to the throne.

"Lord, is that the heart of a dragon..."

"Frederick Artemias. Routine embezzlement, murder, rape. And by virtue of the crime of mass murder, he shall be sentenced to death."

Zeke answered lightly with a blade on the king's neck

I didn't know you were that bad of a guy.

What the hell is going on in this country, wasn't it developed?

"Crap, it's really crap. This country belongs to me, no matter what I do with it, I will be free."

The rhetoric was typical.

"I don't care what you think. I'll have you dead for now, that's all."

"Let them die." Ha, ha, listen, but what difference does it make between you and me, that the Lord is also guilty of murder at his discretion? "

"Difference of creed."

"You call me a creed... come on, then my deeds are also due to that creed and the doings. It's not enough to be killed on purpose. The definition of sin..."

"The definition is that we're here."

……

"We decided to kill him, that's all."

"... you mean kill both my daughter and Suphilia! Wait, my daughter is different, my daughter is! -"

Before I went further, the king's neck was cut off by Siege's sword.

Blood is bouncing irregularly from the cutting surface.

"It's our discretion, too."

Sieg shrugged that way at a body without a neck.

All I could feel was cold there.

"It's your turn next."

"Oh."

Sieg has asked me to kill Suphilia.

Tears were foolish in Sufilia's eyes, and she didn't even feel sad.

I wonder if this is the reaction of someone who was killed by their parents right in front of me, and it feels like they lack some kind of emotion.

"Princess, I'd like to ask you one thing"

The princess turned her gaze only to me.

"Is it true that you ordered a mass slaughter of the people?

I can't believe it.

I mourn my helplessness, I want to help, but I can't.

From her then I could feel my disappointment in myself and my apology to the people.

But now, I don't feel anything from the princess in front of me.

It's like someone else.

"I'll take the mask off a little bit"

When I told them, Siegs took a distance from me and Suphilia.

Turn your back on them and I'll take my face off.

"Sufilia"

"... Dear Nito?

Apparently, you remembered me.

But I don't feel happy.

"Answer my question, did you give the instructions? Did you order me to kill the people who were gathering there then?

"Why are you here… Really? You were the heart of a dragon."

"Was that a lie?

"Lie?... No, I'm not lying"

"So the story about ordering the massacre is bullshit, can I believe it?

"No, I ordered that."

Sufilia replied with too light a look.

"That shouldn't be... then why were you moaning, regretting that you were helpless?

"'Cause you all like it, what about the princess who thinks of her country and grieves?

Is this Sufilia......

The look no longer seemed to have any love for the people.

That guard was right, she's crazy.

Is it the influence of the father, or even so, the truth that he is a ruthless lunatic cannot be changed.

"You ordered a massacre."

"I ordered. But then, your father didn't listen to me. I told him I wanted him to set fire to it so much, but he made me kill him with arrows and swords because I would be in trouble if he burned into the castle. I wanted to see it once if I was going to die anyway. A crowd burns that size at once..."

What is the truth?

She's the truth in front of me, and the princess was fake then...

But my heart really wants to believe her, and I still do.

Something is catching on all the time.

"You lied to me"

"No, I'm not lying. I saw it the way you wanted to, isn't that all?

……

"Why do you have such a sad look, I don't know"

……

"I have lived in these two masks, the Princess and Suphilia. In front of the people and in important seats, the princess, in the castle, Sufilia. That's what“ living ”means to me. But I'm sure that's true of everyone, isn't it, Nito? You also have two masks: the Adventurer Nito, and the Dragon's Heart Nito, so what's the difference between me and me?

"It's not a matter of difference. The problem is that you ordered the murder."

Now I realize.

Sufilia's guilty of murder is overwhelmingly lower than ours.

That's why you think I'm blaming you for lying, not murder.

Feels too different......

Is that why Zeke told you to kill him?

"Because I don't understand, is that why you kill me? After all, aren't you the same as me? I didn't understand, either, that the people who admire me unilaterally..."

"Didn't you understand?

"Isn't it good, then, that they admire me? Then I don't care what you do with them. Dear Nito, we're all on our own just because you don't know, right? I realized one day. why they admire me."

I know.

As much as people are on their own.

Saab took the liberty of judging me convenient.

That became abusive.

"But that was different. It wasn't me they admired, it was the princess. But I realized it was wrong. They weren't even admiring it. They could not understand me. That's why I was just making up for that filling with the action of" admiring ”it. Do you understand, Master Nito, it's the same as you are now. They just looked at it the way they wanted to."

People live at their convenience.

Every action can be explained in this “convenience”.

If so, I also know what that word means when the princess says it's on her own.

But why would that lead to murder... No, I know.

I remember that too.

"They chose not to" admire, "and I occasionally chose“ murder. "No, rather than choosing it, does it feel like you were awake in front of me when you realized it? There's no such thing as good or evil as you think, there's no such thing."

Good and evil are abstract concepts, Sieg said.

He says we're just acting according to what we believe.

But then what do I believe?

What the hell do I believe in?

What do I believe and now point this sword at her neck?

"Look, aren't you the same? People reject things they don't understand, and they abuse them so much. And in doing so, we make up our minds."

Yes, I've been abused.

What she's saying is not wrong.

Saab rejects and abuses me like Ariel abandoned me.

But what about the people, were they really admiring her for that reason?

No, I don't get that.

I guess there's something called a view that only the princess can see.

"Why shouldn't I be the only one asking?

Why do I have to be the only one to see this...

"Isn't that irrational?

Oh, that's unreasonable...

"Why did I have to be a princess?

What makes me a victim?

It should have been good for the others.

"If so, wouldn't you mind killing me"

That's right... I'll kill them, Saab.

I'm not wrong.

"Nito, it's time to kill -"

No......

"- She won't kill you."

"... what?

Killing her.

That means denying yourself.

"Nito, do you know what you're talking about?

"She shouldn't be killed."

"Murder isn't the only sin of these guys. This country is circulating weapons to other countries. It is a magic guide made of Trifoul. That fuels war and leads to an increase in damage. And most importantly, she's a senior alchemist, one of the manufacturers."

"Manufacturer?

"She was the one who managed the manufacture of Trifoul in this country."

"Kill Suphilia."

"We can eradicate Trifoul"

……

"Trifar is made by a handful of magicians with senior positions. The others have already killed, and she's the only one left. She's the only alchemist in this country. If we kill her, this weapon will never be built again."

Is that why you kill me?

No, that's Sieg's convenience, too.

Sufilia meditates her eyes and awaits death.

I'm accepting, that this is my last.

"What about the rest of the tryfouls already made?

"Clear the factory after this. I can't help what's already spilled. But magic props are not permanent, and there will be no limit to how long."

"I see. Are you saying she won't be born again unless she makes it"

"That's what I'm talking about"

"Okay. Then let her keep it with me."

"I just told you, she can't let you live!

Sieg's fury echoes in the hall.

"She doesn't make trifles anymore."

"In her case, existence itself is a sin. I can't let him live."

"Sieg, I told you before, you just need to go down the path of faith. This is the path I believe in. Suphilia should not die here, the roots of all evil are kings, not Suphilia"

"... what are you going to do with her alive, now you're going to build a nation even in Artemias!

"I'll add you to the party. I'll have you live as an adventurer, not a princess in the future."

I ask Suphilia, who meditates on her eyes...

"So you don't mind?

"… my life is dedicated to the Nitto Lord"

I took Sufilia's hand.
