Hero’s Redo ~ A Hero That Once Saved the World Reborn as a Girl ~

- Flare point of view

My name is Flair. He is the brave man of Llumiel, who makes Llumière religion a national religion that celebrates the Llumière God. As an orphan, I took care of the temple, while continuing to work out various aspects every day from an early age. As well as strength and magic, I have actively participated in divinity to get a little closer to God, and actively helped people in need to gain virtue. For what it's worth, I was promoted to one of the most elite Lyumiel Holy Knights in Lyumiere.

Unlike the clergy's, the work of the Holy Knights was all about looking good, either crusading demons that the ordinary Knights couldn't handle, participating in rituals held in the country, or escorting missions in diplomatic settings. The Holy Knights are very popular with everyone because they also earn more than ordinary Knights, mainly in policing activities, and because their white, unified equipment looks good. But I'm getting more and more dissatisfied with the job. I want to hang out with people more directly. I want to help people in need. Like me when I was a young child, I want to save a life I can't even know tomorrow that I suffer from hunger. But as long as I belonged to the Holy Knights, I knew that such an opportunity would never come around. Talk about brave selection exams like the one that sprang up down there. I jumped right at it. Being a brave man can save a lot of people. Whoever does not command me, I can help those who are in front of me. Because brave men are titles that have no more to embody my ideals.

Of course I'm not the only one who took the exam. If you are a person in the country, the number of participants grew enormous because you were able to apply regardless of your self-nomination. Still, a lot of people who didn't like reading and writing fell off in the first written exam, and many more fell off in the next practical exam. Fortunately, I was born with more magic than men, and God bless me for working in the temple, and I couldn't beat anyone in practice. The blessing of Llumière God was so wonderful that he gave me various abilities. Not only my body, but my mind got stronger. I broke through the practice exam and became a sunny and brave man. I had some difficulty writing......

Being a brave man, I have helped as much as I could by taking a trip to various parts of the country. At the same time, he brushed his arms and prepared himself for a battle with the Demon King who would one day fight. One day, on an order from the King, I was to take a trip to the rebel empire of my neighbour. The Rebble Empire has been rapidly expanding its military capabilities lately, a country with a number of bad rumors about its intention to attack its neighbors, or its consortium with the Demon King, or its grabbing people and experimenting with human beings. There's nothing wrong with preparing for the Demon King, but if you're going to invade the surrounding country, you can't have to do anything else with human resources, so the King ordered me to use the position of a brave man to investigate the Levre Empire's internal circumstances.

The Rebble Empire, which I actually visited, was a country of unspeakable atmosphere. Residents don't have energy in their faces, they don't have some kind of hegemony. Not many merchants come and go, and the number of products lined up in the store is small and expensive. Soldiers make up nearly half of the people who cross the city, so I guess there aren't many workers. What an organization that just drains the military, so I naturally thought that if we increased that, we would lose the vitality of the country.

A simulated battle between brave men that took place after various ceremonies. I was heartbroken by an empire that imitated its questionable character as a country to provoke invited customers to fight. Is there no such thing as compassion or courtesy for the other person in the empire? I have sympathy for Master Rubias, who is in a position to say no as a brave man.

The battle was dominated by Master Rubias. I felt a little short of being called a brave man, but she sometimes said she was royal and didn't have much chance to go through a real fight. I feel that we will be much stronger than we are now by fighting demons many times from now on. I feel like I've spoken to you, but I'm honest, and I can treat everyone equally, and I'm very fond of you.

The difference in strength with Lord Barbaros is clear. The battle, which was supposed to end with Master Rubias's victory as it was, was rapidly unfolded by the suddenly changing art of Lord Barbaros. I've never heard of a technique that inflates muscles all over your body and alters the color of your hair and eyes. If I was distorting my face to the sickness I feel physiologically, one heaven came down to me. Be careful with that technique. Very rarely, I have an angel descend from the Lumière God, most of which was meant to avert danger. That said, that technique is evil without the protection of a legitimate God. It's something decent humans shouldn't use.

Lord Barbaros since the change - was a strong word. It's me who's been heavily trained for years, but I don't feel like I can win fighting him right now. Lord Bandit next door thought the same thing, his face seemed a little blue. The situation was reversed by an overwhelming difference in ability, and Master Rubias was cornered to the point of being strangled. It was Mr. Lapis who jumped in to help me and Lord Bandit when they were about to pop out in an attempt to stop Lord Barbaros from stabbing me in the stomach.

Exactly how fast it doesn't even catch my eye. When the hell did he show up, as if he had suddenly sprung up from a space of nothing, he was there when he realized. I was letting her see my face in the castle a few days ago, but at that time, the impression preceded me that she was just cute, and I didn't think she was that strong. Yet she literally overwhelmed that fortified Lord Barbaros. It's not even a battle. How much more rigorous training can you get that much strength? Her strength is at the moment, and I will certainly not be far from Lord Bandit and Lord Anello, who are next door, and even Lord Rubias.

If there are people like her, they should be a great force in the Demon King's Crusade. The only thing that would have paid off coming to this country would have been getting to know her.

The day after the mock battle, which was volatile, I was blessed with the opportunity to have tea with Mr Lapis, as promised the other day. It seems that there are few shops in this country that only enjoy tea, so we will be interrupting the stores dealing with snacks in the morning. When I asked for two cups of tea, the order came out as soon as I didn't have time to put it aside. I don't have many customers, so I guess I'm free. I once again observed Mr. Lapis sitting face to face, but I thought he was a real cutie. Beauty that would captivate many men just to sit in silence. I'm just listening to my ear-friendly voice, and for some reason, I'm relieved.

But like that, she was now visibly depressed. Mr. Lapis, who regained his sanity by my magic in yesterday's battle, has seemed to be doing this ever since.

"What's wrong with you? I'll talk to you if you like."

With that said, she began to talk in a way that was hard to say.

"Well... I'm a little disgusted with my shortness. It's unusual to imitate what it's like to be in a place like that because of how many people are being hit, isn't it? If you're angry with someone, what you're doing is going to be a lot different than Barbaros..."

Mr. Lapis hangs his head as if to confess. I looked dabbled with the faithful whose figure seemed as if they had come to the Church for help, and I accidentally prayed to God. When I let this man recover his mind and show it to me.

"Is it? Mr. Lapis acted to help Master Rubias, didn't he? Instead of being ashamed, I think that's a praiseworthy act?

"But... it's not me... I have been so for a long time. Even if I intend to be calm myself, I end up solving the rubbing with force more often. And when I realize it, I'm waging more violence than I need. I thought my nature was just a thug..."

I took a good scented cup and moistened my throat with just a little tea before I opened my mouth.

"Mr. Lapis. Try to remember the motives for your actions. Is that all done with private lust? If you wield violence for your own benefit to harm others, surely, as you yourself say, you would be just a rampage. But haven't you been using your powers to help someone or to dispel malice?

…………

"It is not violence, in my opinion, if it is for the sake of helping people or the power wielded to protect their rights. I think this has nothing to do with the gods and identities you believe in, it's the universal truth of man. Otherwise, the world would have been a hell of a place where evil can do whatever it wants."

I know because I was an orphan. How unreasonable the world is. The underprivileged or powerless are just used and dumped. I don't discuss it with anyone who doesn't want to use another person and take it away from them. Power has no choice but to confront it with force. That's why I keep trying to be stronger than anyone else.

"So I don't deny waving my powers. Justice without power is only powerless. If you want to cross your fingers and miss the tyranny of evil, you should fight it with strength to be criticized by others."

"Mr. Flair......"

Mr. Lapis seemed surprised by my words, the brave man of Llumiel, who made Llumière God his national religion. If a temple official who has only worked in-house listens to me now, he may have scolded me in surprise. Because they all believe that if they preach righteous deeds in the name of God, people will always change their minds.

"You're not an abusive person. Because the only person who wields power is against clear evil. Besides, Lord Barbaros's technique was to keep the Lyumiere God on guard. I'm sure you'll forgive me for what you did."

"... it would be comforting if God could vouch for me"

"Isn't that right? I'm glad I'm a cleric at a time like this."

I joked and said that, Mr. Lapis laughed a little. Good. Looks like she's finally back in the brightness and vitality she's supposed to have. If a pretty woman doesn't smile all the time, she won't be able to.

"Come on, Mr. Lapis. If your problem is solved, why don't you enjoy your tea? This is my opportunity."

"Right...... Shall I also ask for extra treats? There's a lot I'd like to hear."

"Me, too. I wanted to hear the secret of Mr. Lapis' strength directly from him."

Me and Mr. Lapis laugh in the corner of a store with few customers. Please wait until the end of your tea party with your newly made friend for a report to His Majesty the King. Because this is more important now.
