Hero without Blood or Tear

“What if I say I won't help? ”

The person crouching in the grave smiles at my question.

“Well, I'll be here forever. ”

“… my soul does not belong to this Temen Ankee. ”

“Of course you do. But there are many physical ways to hold a soul without it being bound. ”

He said I would escape one day because I was cunning.

“Until then, I will allow you to watch your hometown burn and everything you loved crumble." ”

I must finally accept the offer of the one crouching in the grave. When I was clearing my mind like that, something unexpected happened.

- My liege.

The deceiver in Noumidia has been silently talking.

The one crouching in the grave thinks I'm overwhelmed.

Is that why you couldn't tell me?

You had your reasons. No wonder this chatty woman is so quiet.

- Maybe I'll get in the way of convincing the understudy.

- By the way, did Aquila betray you?

I didn't have time, so I immediately asked what was important. I thought she would give me the right answer, but I was surprised.

- I don't know... In fact, I've been completely believing in him, but when I heard the words of the person crouching in the grave, my heart trembled.

Even the conman of Noumidia, who was Aquila's partner, seems to have raised suspicions about him.

- Duke, give us some time to talk.

- Got it.

I asked the one crouching in the grave about his plan after wearing the crown. He also said he was curious about the future of the universe he ruled.

He seemed interested in the question, forcing me to answer.

“As the highest point of the universe! ”

He spends a lot of time obsessed with vanity. In the meantime, I quickly spoke to the conman of Noumidia in my mind.

- Sir, we're in the worst situation right now.

- You don't have to tell me.

- You have to accept his offer anyway. But what's important here is to leave room. There's no room for reversal.

I listened to the opinions of my elder trickster.

- I call it planting a seed.

- That's an interesting expression.

- Then our trick sounds like something solid. Anyway, the foundation of fraud is to plant seeds whenever possible.

Whether it was a difference of experience or not, she looked further away than I did.

- By the way, I have twenty thoughts in my mind right now. I don't want to think so, but I might have been fooled by Aquila.

I liked her attitude. You have to trust Aquila here. If Aquila had said, "That can't be true," she might have lost her temper.

But you don't have the temper of a con man. Even the partner on a massive adventure was on the backseat of the Dragon Boat.

- And now we're stuck.

- I can't do that right now, but I'll leave the stone for later.

- It's good to have conversations. You're a singer anyway. Accept the offer of the one crouching in the grave.

- I appreciate the offer, but you're gonna have to put some kind of restriction on me. Don't betray him.

There is no way you can just break the seal. I'm sure you'll want to make sure we don't let them plot behind our backs. When there are more constraints, the backstabber becomes more difficult.

- So let's hit the player. Tell them you'll take me hostage. That should alleviate some of the constraints.

Not only that, he said he could prevent a fraudster from being tied to this contract.

- You want to be the seed of this?

The man crouching in his grave must have considered me an anxiety factor. I mean, look at what you did to silence me with your magic trick. I actually released it in the middle.

I thought this cellmate might be bigger than I thought, even though she's stuck to her armor. It's not unusual to release such a transcendent's tricks, even though you've been beaten. At least not on my level. You must be the Ambassador.

- I'm sure you'll be pleased to offer me up.

- I'll hide my awakenings and infiltrate them. But it's dangerous. I don't know what I'm going through.

- But it's better than doing nothing. Husband, think carefully. It's about planting a bomb in his arms. Moreover, an arrogant person like the one crouching in the grave does not easily think that his skills will fail.

It may take some time before you realize that the trickster of Noumidia has awakened.

- This is a difficult situation. It could be a flare.

In my point, the trickster of Noumidia laughed. Not according to this serious situation.

- I've always gambled my life away. There was always uncertainty. But I believe we're not done yet.

Eventually, I had to follow her decision. I didn't have time to think.

-... take care of yourself.

- I have so much to tell you, but I don't have time. I wasn't entirely honest with him either. I'm sorry about that.

- It's okay, he's a fraud.

The trickster of Noumidia smiles again. But for some reason, the smile seemed familiar. Whose laugh was that?

No, the Duke of Vallarsted von Wittenbier-Basel.

- Tell me.

- Promise me, even if I fail, I won't be amused. We're liars, aren't we? You're not going to get robbed like this, are you?

At last, I could almost smile at the face I was looking at. The man crouching in the tomb replied cautiously without noticing.

- Yeah, this Ballerstead. A man who makes pushing others down the greatest joy of his life.

- Wow, what a creepy guy. Cook, Cook.

But why would a conman in Noumidia cooperate so much? Asked about it, she became somewhat depressed.

- Maybe one day you'll talk. You can doubt me. But just know that I'm useful. That's enough, isn't it?

-Okay.

After that, I quickly made a deal. I don't know if it's a handshake or a trick to leave behind a trickster in Noumidia. But I had to do what she said.

“Ballersted, you should know enough about this body's plan. Now choose.”

I couldn't stall any longer. I tightened it in front of him. Then, the person crouching in the grave burst out a smile as if he was satisfied.

“Khhh-heh-heh!”

“Great One, I will do as you wish. ”

I promised him that I would go down to the ground and unseal the struggling death.

“I will do my job with all my heart and body. ”

“Good.”

“I'll also put a scammer in Noumidia to vouch for this. ”

“What?"

The person crouching in the grave was very funny.

“She's really cunning. I understand your willingness to fulfill the contract, Valrusted, as you say you will leave it here. ”

My proposition was to satisfy him fairly.

“You're absolutely right. What if millions of weeds die? I assured you of your superior hospitality. ”

“What an opportunist, you are. ”

“My saint Baller actually means' grass cutter. ’I'm going to cut a lot of weed on this occasion and pay for it. ”

“Kuhahaha! Great! ”

However, he who crouched in the tomb placed additional terms and conditions. Contrary to my faithfulness, if I circumvented the terms and conditions of the contract, it was a condition that my soul belonged to this Teman Anqui.

“If your soul is bound to this place by the terms of this contract, the protection of your soul will be of no use. It is a fair price for the contract. If you don't want to rip your whole soul out, you'd better not cheat. ”

It was a very difficult condition. So far I've used breaches of contract or toxins. But this time, we shut it down with the words "loyalty and integrity."

The range of faithfulness and integrity was not only broad enough to break the seal, but also that those who crouched at the tomb afterwards did not hinder attacking the struggling death.

From the beginning, it was tying the hands and feet of a con man.

“You're thorough.”

“Because I know what you are. ”

The conman in Noumidia expressed concern.

- Fortunately, I'm not under contract. I have freedom in the arms of my enemies. Whereas you are so constrained.

- It's okay, I can't do anything about it.

I can't limit my own behavior unless I've been handed something like a doll. Moreover, I am backed by another transcendent, other than the one crouching in the grave, and I am walking the path of self-confidence, which is also high. It was neither a slave contract nor a restraint of action.

- But a contract is a contract. You would be a martyr for humanity?

- I'm sorry, but you don't have to worry if you wake up dead.

Of course, my life is more precious than millions of human beings.

- I told you not to get robbed. I'll find the answer. As always.

- Okay, good luck.

I gave it to someone who was crouching in the grave away from the impostors of Noumidia.

“Excellent. Your cooperation requires you to keep your word." ”

The man crouching in the grave brings out the Black Orb. It was a copy of programmatic Mortis. As I reached out my palm, it was absorbed into me.

“You are now free of this body. But this kind of power is nothing if it's a substitute. You can make yourself great as you go along. ”

“I'll keep that in mind.”

Then I made a contract with the one crouching in the grave. Given his relationship over the years, it was a contract that did not seem to end well.

But it was the only way to break through. I leave the contract and try to use the contract to find my way.

“Then leave for your world and get on with your business. This body will hold hands indefinitely long after the war between the great armies of darkness. ”

* * *

The place to return was Grosse Glokner. It was night, so the first thing I did was look at the stars.

“Huh, really.... ”

The boiling abyss is terribly pushing against the incomparable darkness. It wasn't just that. You notice that there are other forces of darkness beside the boiling abyss.

You've really thrown a battle. Hopefully this will rid the world of one of the cosmic horrors, the undeniable darkness.

I was immersed in thought, looking at the stars for a while. It was because I was busy organizing my plans for the future. After wandering around the mountain for a long time, I couldn't find a good way, but I remembered one thing.

“Wait……. ”

The vessel of my soul can now bear the patronage of three transcendents. However, this time, thanks to the independence of those crouching in the grave, the sponsorship slot became empty.

Programma Mortis' clones allow us to harness the power of bloodless and tearless people without any sponsorship.

“Hehehehe.”

Suddenly, I burst into laughter.

“You should at least recruit a sponsor. ”

A new sponsor seemed to be a variable in future walks.
