My Status as an Assassin Obviously Exceeds the Hero’s

Episode 153 - "Higambana" - Leah Lagoon Eye

Right, left, right, right...

As much as I can't remember anymore, I followed Master Crowe to a place off the center street.

At first I was trying to figure out where to go, but when they go down a road like I've never been through, I'm already in a good mood.

Even though it's just a town that's in it, it's hard to fully understand the side streets anyway, even if you live there.

The roads I'm walking on are also less popular and dim, and I don't even know where this place is located in town.

I walked too far and it was time for my legs to ache.

"Master Crowe, how much longer will it take?

I've heard it so many times I don't know.

I know I'm not lost in the speed of walking without falling, but I don't think I can help but be anxious in places I don't know.

"I'll be there in a few minutes.... What, you're used to living a princess and you're already buttered?

I pointed my mouth at that tone of teasing even though I knew that was provocation.

"I'm not buttering! Anyone who doesn't tell me where to go will be anxious."

"Well, have you become anxious to follow a path you don't know? He used to follow me around on a road he didn't know existed."

When the hell are we talking about?

At least you've never followed a path I don't know as far as I can remember.

No, there might be.

"What, did you forget? That your mother asked you to come with her to the next town. You didn't even notice I was off the road on the way."

Speaking of which, that happened.

It was only then that Master Crowe began to fool me a little.

At that time, fools. Honestly believe Master Crowe's words, he had gone all the way to the neighboring town for decades.

I don't care about anything else about being fooled because it also made me a good exercise, but I was desperate for my gullibility.

If you think about it, you're not supposed to cross two mountains to get to the next town.

It wasn't so rural.

"Not like then and now!

"Otherwise I'll be in trouble"

I got a little upset when she blurted out at me.

How can this guy not be able to catch the ball of words?

"Master Crowe hasn't changed at all! You treat me like I used to, and I suck at word catchballs!

Nothing really has changed.

So much so that they're going to believe that Master Crowe was here as he was then.

I wonder how old the Beast tribe can be, even though they don't show up on their faces and bodies, how can it be that humans have been the same for decades?

"Treat me like a child or something, I would still be a child. Besides, I'm not going to change. I've never felt I needed or still need a word catchball"

"M! I am a woman! That's why Master Crowe will always be single! Your face is good, but it's a waste."

How could this man try to be alone from himself?

Isn't one lonely, sad, and very painful?

I may not feel loneliness, sadness or bitterness without anything from the beginning.

But I've learned when I'm not alone.

The same should be true of Master Crowe.

Everyone in the village died, and there was no Master Crowe, and I felt like a hole in my chest at that time.

That's what being alone is all about.

That's what losing a loved one means.

It hurts like a bump in a flash.

That's irresistibly painful.

Now is the time to meet many human beings in the royal castle and no longer feel alone, but Master Crowe is different.

It didn't seem to me that Master Crowe wanted to be alone.

Yet this man is still alone.

When I heard that, Master Crowe bent the edge of his mouth mocking himself.

"It's okay to be single.... I'm not going to be happy anymore."

"- Yeah."

I opened my eyes to the words of a potpourri and a whine.

"I stopped thinking about my own happiness when I thought about my sister's revenge. My hell is decided when I push it on the young man."

"Revenge of my sister" was a faint realization.

When I was in the village, I asked Master Crowe.

About your precious sister and the fact that her sister was murdered by her compatriots during "Adrea's Nightmare".

He didn't tell me about the compatriots he killed, but when we were talking about it, Mr. Crowe's eyes were terribly sad and burning up hard.

I've almost forgotten all my other memories, but that's all I'm impressed with.

But what does it mean to have pushed young people?

You mean have someone else do your revenge?

But I don't think that clears Mr. Crowe's mind.

And who the hell is that young man?

... No.

I don't understand it very well with my head.

It would be quicker to ask directly.

"Um, Master Crowe..."

"What's up, we're here"

There was no previous awful and painful look on that face that turned this way, it was my usual face.

Clapped out at it, I end up swallowing the words I tried to hear and shifting my gaze in front of me.

"Wow!!

I cheered unexpectedly on the red carpet spreading in front of me.

There are a bunch of red flowers I've never seen.

The blooming flowers on one side were beautiful even though they were somewhere dark red.

"You're growing on the way here, too. It was a flower I didn't know, but Akira told me. It's called" Higambana. "

Flowers stretching from the center toward the heavens line the narrow stretches.

My hand reaching out and trying to touch me was grabbed by Master Crowe.

"They're poisonous, so you should stop. I wish I knew where the poison was, but Akira seems to have forgotten where the poison is too. Well, the fact that the man knows the name of the flower seems like a miracle in itself, so there's no choice."

"It's so beautiful and it's poisonous..."

But maybe this is how I'd rather come and see these flowers than break them by hand.

It's more beautiful to see where it grows like this than to decorate a circle.

"It seems that the word" higan "in this" higambana "refers to the afterlife, that is, the world that goes after death. So this flower is the flower of the world after death. Well, I don't even know where Akira really came from."

"" Higan "... How can you have such a name when you are so beautiful..."

Wasn't there a better name?

Poison and a good name, some brutal flower.

When I saw the flowers swinging in the wind, I glanced a little.

"Still, it'll be beautiful"

"Yes.... but why are you here?

Mr. Crowe's face on the diagonal stares at the flowers.

As it was, Master Crowe frowned and tilted his neck like he was in a little trouble.

"How could... I happened to get here yesterday when I was walking in town, so I wanted to show it to someone.... I think that's all. There must be no other intention."

I don't think I happen to be the kind of person who just wants to show it to others.

But Master Crowe has always liked these beautiful flowers.

Light peach flowers floating in the lake or purple flowers blooming like rain falling from heaven.

You've told me such a place for a long time alone.

Maybe it's an extension of that that that brought me here.

But I will never forget this place.

I also forgot that since I entered the castle, flowers are such a beautiful thing.

"You won't be able to remember such a deep place, and you'll never come alone because you'll get lost"

Seems like the same kind of words you say and end up worried about.

"Then you have nothing to come with but Master Crowe. There are more secrets for just the two of us."

"What, did you remember that"

When I said that and laughed, Master Crowe smiled with his face pointed at "Higambana," to such an extent that he wouldn't know if he really looked closely.
