Hakai no Miko

Chapter 59 Battle of the Berte River 6 - Born

"Whether any emotion is the beginning or the driving force, it's a difficult path to be just a hero.

A hero is a man who must not be a man. Just one person walking the same path as the hero is always immersed in unbearable hardship. Not much can be trampled on by everybody. One day, I will fall off my feet. I promise. "

So Partis sighed.

"But that's all you have to do. When that's over, it's still better. Though to the developing world, those who follow the path of heroes who are but human are often (oh) empowered. Like a hero. It is a force that moves people. And it's a powerful force that can change the world.

But he is not a hero with the power of a hero. With the power of the immortal, what can no longer even be a hero can be turned into something ridiculous that is neither man nor hero. "

Behind the pale horse's head came the words of that white-coated girl with a crazy smile.

Without knowing that, Partis continued to say that he had a strong aversion to his face.

"I know a man who did that. He despaired of people, gave up all the words of despair in the world, and now he continues to rot in the sludge of despair and abandonment. And man is proving that the world is as cruel, as ruthless, as ugly and as foolish as he despaired, and dragging all man into the swamp of despair and abandonment where he perishes.

Such things are no longer living thoughts.

It is the thought of the dead. It is the thoughts of ghosts who envy the living and resent the world. "

So Partis leaked his tongue in disgust.

"That's why he's in trouble. Oh, he doesn't have a stepsister or a human heart. It doesn't make sense or make any sense. There is only momentary enjoyment (today). It's just a big fool trying to get the whole world involved and destroy himself."

Partis turned to the pale horse.

"You are still on the road, higher than him, and you are on the road of heroes. However, the power gained so far is not his ratio. You could be more than that."

Partis tells the losing pale horse to teach with an amazingly calm look.

"I don't know if this is the best place for you or your surroundings to end.

There was a moment of silence.

Finally, the pale horse wets his dry lips with his tongue.

"... that means you have to give up winning?

Of course, the pale horse asked, realizing that such an intention was not in the hands of Partis. Then Partis looks like he's been poked in the face.

"I didn't mean to, but forgive me if I disturbed you. I'm just saying what I can think of. I didn't think deeply about it. Well, he came up with something. I tried to put it in perspective, but didn't I say something very sharp?

Partis didn't look bad and laughed funny.

"I'm embarrassed to suddenly say something I don't understand from my subordinates. My brother also told me to hold it inside myself for a while, but I kept my mouth shut. That's my bad habit. Don't tell me you didn't hear that."

Even though Partis suddenly dropped back in disapproval, he coughed up one of the pale horses, which had regained some leeway.

"In general, I don't want you to decide whether to step off the road or fall. Unfortunately, I have someone who grabs the roots of my neck and pulls me back before I step off the road. There are people who tell me to kick my ass and crawl up, even if I fall."

The blue horse said with a great deal of trust and some pride.

And the eyes of the Partis shall be opened in a circle.

"Oh, my God! I'm flattered!

Partis exclaimed. And when I narrow my round eyes, I envy you from the bottom of my heart.

"I envy you, as long as I envy you. Such a man shall be a treasure that shall not be gained! Mm-hmm. I care! I'd love to see you! What do you think? Can I see you?

"No. I refuse."

The pale horse answered immediately.

As soon as I met Shem, I said, "Give her to me! Because I could easily imagine the Partis saying,

Partis refused by the pale horse, and he is magnificent.

"You stingy bastard. Wouldn't it be a little better? Show me the King's measurements."

"No, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no.

Me! Well, that's what I meant earlier! You can't save a man who's so stingy and so narrow in his heart!

The blue horse faces you.

"Whatever you say, don't do anything bad."

Then Partis stared at the side, but after a while he opened his mouth and laughed.

"I would like to thank you from the bottom of my heart. It was once again a very meaningful meeting. That's not a compliment. There are only a limited number of people who can talk to me with this kind of hunger. Most people look in trouble on the way. My sister is the only one who can talk to me like this."

After a single laugh, Partis becomes serious.

"Just ask as a courtesy. --Are you willing to honestly admit defeat and surrender? I will save your life."

Partis said that the blue horse could not accept such a proposal. And the pale horse shook his neck again.

"I'm sorry. Besides, I promise everyone. I'm sorry, but I'm going to expose your neck and leave your body in the wild to feed the beasts."

Besides, Partis always laughs at me.

"If you win with me, I will hang your father's head and dedicate it to my father's grave. It will be like each other!

Partis smiled with a swordfish expression.

"But now we can no longer hold our swords without each other's blades."

After that, it's up to the army to decide.

The pale horse was also slashed. Then check where they are and ask Partis.

"Are you going to do the tongue fight here?

He came out with the intention of fighting his tongue before the war began. Because it has become an unexpected conversation, the two are now at a sufficient distance to have a conversation at a normal volume.

If we raise our voices as loud as we can hear from each other's armies here, they will be loud.

Partis continued to ask the pale horse with such thoughts.

"Mm-hmm. That's it."

Partis smiled shamefully and bitterly.

"I'm not good at tongue fighting."

The pale horse was surprised.

Partis is the prince of the Romanian kingdom. If I preferred to lead my own army in such a position, I was willing to assume that tongue battles would be familiar.

Whether the surprise appeared on his face or not, Partis scratches his head in a gloomy manner.

"I'm not lying. --I 'm basically going to fight for my life. It is certain that there is something that cannot be transferred to each other.

For example, we are invaders to your Duke. You can't be convinced that you were invaded by living in peace and being called justice.

But for my Romanian kingdom, the reunification of the west is more a plea than the founding king. It is no longer a country. I can't change it all by myself. And your country has hurt the prestige of the Romanian nation. As a prince, I can't leave this behind.

In addition, I can't help feeling angry about being beaten up by my father as a result. Even if that's what's wrong with us. "

That way, Partis hides his voice with a childish expression confessing his pranks.

"Wouldn't it be a waste of time and effort to argue it out louder now?

I agree.

A pale horse considered by others to be an excellent valgus, but still taking a lot of courage to shake it in public. It's just that I've had to do it before. It was true that I wanted to refrain from doing anything I could.

The pale horse's answer sparkled his face.

"Oh, I knew you'd understand."

Well then, there's no tongue fight.

Partis nodded loudly at the words of the pale horse.

"Thank you. - Well, I'm not dressed for it, so let's try to inspire my own army."

Roger that.

That said, the blue horse pulls the rope and returns the horse's neck.

"Well, I'll see you when I get another chance. --Of course, at that time, one of them would be necked."

The pale horse said a joke farewell.

Then Partis would have laughed and thought he'd return the joke. However, Partis smiles bitterly.

I see. I wish I had another chance. "

Instead of returning the joke, Partis returned the words of farewell to some loneliness and turned his horse's neck back to his side.

In response to the unexpected Partis' reaction, the pale horse could only shut up to see him off.

◆ ◇ ◆ ◇ ◆

"Are you okay, Soma?!"

Shem asked the pale horse, who had returned from parting with Partis, at the very beginning of his opening.

"Are you hurt? You didn't do anything? You didn't say anything weird, did you?

The pale horse smiles at his overprotective mother, who is worried about my child, saying, "It's okay." Then Shem stroked his chest down.

Then Shemr took the horse's horse's chisel with the blue horse, and returned to his own battle, and asked the blue horse.

"So how was the guy named Partis?

After a while, the pale horse answers.

"You were a strange person."

From now on, there was no sign of feeling at all concerned about fighting for each other's lives or the lives of many people. Even so, I am not a bloody warlord as I imagined or a ignorant prince who cannot understand the current situation. In a word, all I could say was a strange person.

"Weird guy? What the hell is that?

The pale horse did not know how to explain it to the question-mark Shem, but talked to Partis for the time being. However, he deliberately obscured what Partis said about what moves himself as a mortal.

I was curious to hear the story of the palatius of the pale horse, but when I finished hearing it, I looked strange.

"What's wrong, Shem?

When the pale horse asked, Shem leaned his head.

"Hmm, that sounds kind of lonely."

In the unexpected words of Shemr, the pale horse replied, "Do you miss me?" she said. Then Shem wrinkles his nose.

"No, I don't know why, but I just kind of thought so."

Shem couldn't find a clear answer in himself, either.

But that's why the pale horses don't underestimate what Shem felt. Is it because she's more straight than anyone else? Occasionally, Shem's intuition can point to the core of things that no one has ever noticed. There must be something there.

Speaking of which, the blue horse remembers.

Certainly, there was a loneliness behind Partis returning to his side after the conversation. He also said that there were only a limited number of people who could talk to him with a stomach break. Most people get in trouble on the way.

I felt like I could tell from the blue horse somehow.

Even though I was talking to the face, I couldn't keep up with Partis' own values and sometimes I felt like I was on the other side of a wall where I couldn't see Partis.

Even I grew up in contemporary Japan where a wide variety of ideas, claims and values are recognized. Most people will not understand the idea of Partis.

When I was thinking of such a thing, the blue horse remembered.

"Seems like you're seeing something different..."

That's what Marchronis used to say at the plain fort.

Standing from a different point of view than ordinary people, having a field of view not available to ordinary people, and having thoughts not understandable to ordinary people. Still, there's something attractive about it.

A person with a different vision from the average person.

Call it a hero. Or call him the Destroyer.

The pale horse turned his back over his shoulder and leaked slightly.

Is that a hero?

A natural hero patis who grew up in the same environment as others, but with completely different perspectives, not in the same environment or education as himself.

Because he is more heroic than anyone else, no one understands him and no one understands him. Everyone says and sees, but nobody can face each other. Everyone follows, but no one stands in line.

I heard that Partis has a habit of being dictated by people's words.

Perhaps that was the result of trying to get close to the words and opinions of others, even though Partis could not understand them.

The blue horse thought so.
