Hero without Blood or Tear

[22] Hunting Heroes. (1)

Valpurgis lowers his head and pauses to remove his helmet, whispering.

“Balor, what I'm about to show you is a secret only some of your uncles and nuns know. ”

“Do you mind telling me about that? ”

A relationship I had with her in the past.

Current relationship with her.

What difference does it make? There was a time when I was close to Valpurgis. I also shared a strong friendship like golden stone.

After all these years on the battlefield, I can't believe it. But Valpurgis never tried to take off his helmet like this.

My current relationship with her has only been two days. But I couldn't figure out exactly what moved her.

“Honestly, I don't think it's a good idea for Maine to share this secret. But this is what your heart tells you to do. Balor, look. ”

I had no reason to say no after talking like that. I've always wondered about her secrets. With a nod, Valpurgis finally removes his helmet.

“Ah!”

I was amazed. It was because her blonde hair, which glittered in the morning sunlight, was so beautiful. It reminded me of a fairy queen I once saw.

And her face. I felt like I would be fascinated by the way the girl looks at me, slightly biting her lips, blushing her cheeks.

How beautiful. How can there be such beauty on the market?

“Valpur is a goddess.... ”

Balpur, who is famous for being carelessly beautiful, remembered the goddess. I even wondered if she was some kind of goddess incarnation. I have seen many beautiful women in this world in the last 100 years. But that peak is now in front of me.

But...

However, praise for her beauty did not come out of my mouth.

“…… Curse. ”

“Yes.”

The left half of Valpurgis' cheek, part of his jaw, is dark and twisted with a curse. A third of his entire face was a mess.

What kind of curse is this? That's why you've been hiding your face. Moreover, the energy of the curse was not unusual. I felt an unexplainable energy.

I could intuitively tell that this curse was the work of a higher being. Humans can't dare to touch us.

“... Do you know about it at the convent? ”

“Of course. The High Abbot and the Deputy Abbot are looking out for me. It is because of this curse that Balpur originally joined with the Sisterhood. My uncle put me in the convent. ”

“What curse? ”

I've never seen anything like this in Chilma Temple. Valpurgis merely shakes his head.

“I'm sorry, I can't tell you that. I don't want you to get involved in this curse. ”

“Then why did you show it to me? ”

Valpurgis hesitates for a moment on my question. Then I opened my mouth.

“…… because you are cursed too. ”

“Did you show it to comfort me? ”

Nod. Nod.

Valpurgis nods with a shy face. She wanted to comfort me. That's why he showed his face while thinking about it.

You know, I had a smile on my face like I was a little kid. Valpurgis was still so cute when he was a girl.

However, the following words were quite strong.

“Wrap it up. It'll be hard, but bear with it. The Maine and the Sisterhood will surely find a way to break your curse. And know that there are more who live with a curse like you. ”

“Lord Valpurgis. ”

“Even a 16-year-old girl is overcoming. You're much more of an adult than she is. Try to be graceful. The Mainlander will surely protect you. ”

No, if you keep saying it was cute and cool, I might fall in love with it.

“And this is not the only reason I showed my face. Balor, you saved her life. And she saved the life of the high abbot who followed her like her mother. I wanted to be true to you. And if you... ”

Valpurgis blurs, whispering to you a few moments later, as if you were squeezing his courage.

“There was also expectation that they would understand the ugliness of the main woman. ”

I reach out and slightly touch Valpurgis' cheeks. A dark, distorted area instead of clear, white skin.

Valpurgis flinches for a moment, but still accepts my hand.

“Ugly? You weren't cursed because you wanted to be." But why would it be ugly? ”

Valpurgis was impressed by the fact that I didn't change my appearance at all.

“Apply……. Thank you."

She smiled happily from my mouth. God, you're such a pretty girl when you smile. I had no choice but to look at Valpurgis for a moment.

But then.

< It's now possible to recruit Valpurgis as a colleague whenever you need to! >

< You can get help from her strength and power! >

A message tells you that colleagues can be recruited. But I wasn't very surprised. It's because I've seen it several times in the past. But now it felt more special.

No, Valpurgis continued to realize that it's not just about emotion.

“Balor.”

“Yes.”

“There's one more thing I want to tell you. ”

She nods as if she wants to hear, and she closest her face, her words close to me. And I could barely hear it in my ears.

“Valpurgis is a baptism name. The name of the festival in honor of Valfurga is Valfurgis. He named the festival after him. It was because Mainland's Youngju Day was the first day of Valpurgis. ”

She thought she might have a real name because she was a nun. But I've never heard of it.

“Balor, remember. Her real name is... Shartier. ”

“Chartier. What a lovely name. ”

“… Well, that sounds good. If only I could remember you. ”

“I won't forget. ”

Valpurgis gives me something to drag from his neck. It was her necklace. I could still feel the girl's temperature.

“It is the treasure of the Bavarian family after pre-war. I got it from my uncle.”

“Why are you doing this to me? ”

“A token that promises to meet again someday. ”

“Can I give it back then? ”

Then Valpurgis looks a little grumpy.

“I have nothing to give back. I gave it to you, so keep it accountable. ”

I don't think I can handle it if I lose it.

“Very well. I appreciate it. ”

When I put the necklace around my neck, Valpurgis smiles satisfactorily and puts his helmet back on. Then he turned his head.

“I look forward to having you come find me! We'll see each other again! ”

And Valpurgis sped up the unicorn. Suddenly, she drifts away. I was surprised by the sudden system message as I was escorting with my eyes.

< The Hidden Story of the Bavaria Pre-Earned Family ’has been unlocked! >

< Chatier's Love Route has been opened! >

I had no choice but to be surprised.

Valpurgis was convinced there was no love route. Not a character that can be targeted towards romance in the first place. I have never heard of this game that prides myself on being good at it.

But Valpurgis' love route?

No, the system message says "courtship route" in Charlotte. I mean, wouldn't her true name be the only way to unlock the love route?

No matter how deeply connected the existence of Valpurgis is, the relationship route does not appear. But when I met her, was the relationship route with her open?

I pressed the system message for more information.

< You have been approved by Chartier. After completing the Bavarian lineage story, if you lift the curse of Chartier, you will have her completely. >

To see the ending in the Balfurgis love route, it is expected to be difficult. But if you can have a woman like that, it's worth a challenge.

“Hehe. Now things are interesting. ”

I pretended to be relaxed, but my heart was beating so embarrassingly in my chest! Bang! I couldn't hide the fact that I was running.

I'm glad someone didn't see me now.

* * *

I intend to bring in the Demon Prince to catch Philipp after the Iron Pilgrimage. And you'll get your reward, which is where you get your prize, middle and bottom results.

The bottom line is to just snitch, take the money, and leave. It's safe, but of course it's a pet. I can't take a chance like this.

Then what's the weight?

It's simple

You fight alongside the Demon Prince to share your EXP after hunting Philipp. If you're lucky, Philip's men might eat the spilled egg.

This is not a bad way. But this is also not good.

Then what's the plan?

I hit Philip's mace, and I eat all of his stuff. The Demon King made Philip suffer, and the result was that he missed this body.

That was the plan.

Originally, the method of this manual was difficult to write, but the situation changed. It's because I have the power of a man without blood or tears.

It was because summoning the Undead allowed me to summon soldiers to fight for me. It was still level 1, so it wasn't enough to break Philip and his minions, but it was enough to get the best hits.

Because of the war, there were many undead corpses in the field. The swarms of wild dogs and crows were also devouring the bodies of humans and Orcs.

“Whoa, whoa. ”

I stopped Philly and pulled a wand from his waist. This wand, carved from the bones of evil spirits, was one of the things that Balfur took with him from the catacombs of the Nuns.

It's cursed, but it didn't work at all on this top-level body. It was okay to call him who chews the curse, not who has no blood or tears.

[Magic wand made from the bones of Mahmal Karka.]

A grade A magic item.

Darkness +70

Magic Power +50

Charisma +13

Help users summon +20% more when using the Undead Summon.

This wand was meant for the commanders. With this, we can summon more undead forces.

“Good.”

Somehow I felt a little excited. I have traveled this world for 100 years, but this was the first time I had commanded because I have always been a hero of justice. I was always just watching the summoning of the undead, but it was quite interesting to say it in person.

However, since I am still skilled at summoning the undead, I can only summon skeletons. But there was nothing to worry about. I have many dark and magical qualities.

And there were dead bodies everywhere. I had about half a day before I got to the Demon King's camp, so I was planning on improving my skills here in summoning the undead.

“Arise! My army! Raise your bones! ”

Whoo-hoo!

The smoke of darkness suddenly rolls from my arms. The corpses prowl as if they were in a state of agitation.

“Your master is here! ”

I shouted, casting the dark power prepared upon the corpses.

“Death Fighters, march on your master!"

At that moment, the undead begin to rise.
