Sword Whisperer

I tried to manage my expression.

pretend not to be surprised, pretend not to be embarrassed. But that realization wasn't that light, so I couldn't stop half the waves of emotion from hitting my face.

‘Anil..... did you do it? ’

When I told you to find an excuse, there were many. Once, Eroc was the one he knew from an early age as the 'Master of the Rear Mountains’. He was subject to fear, but he was also subject to will. Given that he felt almost like the spirit of the village, I didn't know it was natural to believe he was just as good.

He was a member of the Balagoth family. A man who can hold all the pleasures of the world in his hands if he wants to live quietly on such a rock, but it was never easy to think he was such an evil man without being twisted.

I wrote. As much as I thought Eroc was a good man, the weight of what he did had to be clearer three days later.

For those who had only eternal life, Eroc made a monster that could not live without coveting blood. For what? I didn't know, but for whatever reason..... it was horrible and unforgivable.

No one in the world has just a good face. Although, it is difficult to discern good from the fight between the Revolutionary Army and the Kingdom, people are different.

"Yes. Did you change your mind when you heard the story? ”

Arotep laughed at Van and Munet and said: He noticed that even now he wanted the two of them to break their resolve. But Van shakes his head. If there was no hesitation, it would be a lie, but I was so desperate to hear a word like that and take a step..... the prize at the end of this road.

"I don't know yet. ”

"..... Can't you feel compassion? Vampires aren't all bad people. Don't you feel good just by looking at me right now?"

"Haha. It's a very funny joke. ”

Van said with a smiley expression at all. Arotep gazes at Munet with a grit on his head.

“Your guest seems to be laughing at me. ”

“It's hard not to laugh. He's like this.”

"..... I thought it was no use raising my daughter. ”

Arotep shakes his head. Van looked at Arotep like that and was locked in his thoughts. Is it a good man or a bad man who will be slaughtered at the end of this knife? I didn't know it was time to face the problem of quitting a long time ago, perhaps withholding.

Though no one in the world is good, and no one in the world is evil, it has always given him the power not to lose conscience, but perhaps in the end it is only his own prayer.

If there is no good or evil, isn't it normal for anyone to be able to ring, or for anyone not to ring?

“Munet.”

Van looked back at her.

“I don't think I've ever heard of this from an elderly man. ”

"You've never had water, have you? ”

"…… it sounds like you knew. ”

“Yes, I knew. ”

Van kept his mouth shut to Munet's obvious answer. Surely she has her reasons. She'll have her situation. Eroc simply liked it, which was probably not all the reason she was in charge of the job.

If so, what are his reasons?

‘Guardian's Sword...'

If it's grand, if it's trivial, it's trivial. But it was also true that the sword could not be given up. For the Black Van, it wasn't just a useless sword. It was like the last piece of the puzzle that could complete him, as the guardian of the Sunwoo family.

'...... I can't choose to give it up. ’

He had lived half as long as he wanted without being tempted by good or evil, but he also knew that it was the least good. At least he wasn't as persecuted as the innocent, and in this case perhaps became a vampire…….

"If you don't go, I'm going."

Munet said in a stubborn voice. Van looked at Munet without saying a word. When he grabbed the knife, he always knew the answer, but that's why the world outside the black house was always difficult. Muñet lifts up his pretty face like a rose and looks straight at Van. The fragrance and thorns in her voice tickled her and at the same time harassed her.

"Your help in stealing wasn't that important in the first place. If you want to fall in love, fall out. You're the one who's sorry. Even if I'm alone..."

"You're not going alone."

Arotep cut off her words. When Munet looked up at him with a dissatisfied expression, Arotep smiled like he always did.

"My beloved daughter will weave me a long pussy, and I can't just watch."

"Since when have you been such a good father..."

"Maybe it wasn't always good. But sometimes he was a good dad. Isn't that right?"

While looking at Arotep's gentle smile, Munet looked rather contemptuous. He wondered whether it would be unpleasant to even inhale such air after leaving the room. Half the parlour. Arotep glances at Van with an uneasy expression.

"Yeah, so it wasn't really a groom. ”

"I would have said so from the beginning."

"Usually all the guys he was dating weren't in front of me. I guess I was scared."

"From there, there seems to be a misunderstanding. I'm not afraid of you."

"Haha, beating a young man is a good way to look. Not until you target my daughter with that beating."

Arotep laughed joyfully. There was no reason for Van to hate him unless he really was a son-in-law. Of course, even though we fought to kill each other until just now, it was hard to live long enough not to forget every penny in the old days.

Van did not face Arotep. My head became complicated for a moment because of a backlash I didn't think of.

"Let's go. I'll sort things out slowly."

"…… where? ”

“Where the roots are. ”

Van said in a quiet voice.

“First we have to face kidnapping or not."

§

Arotep did not tell them directly where the destination was. Maybe you're worried Van and Munet will beat him. Van looked at Munet and said,

"I think he's a better father than I thought. ”

"… because you don't know. ”

"Then let me tell you something. Why do you hate me so much? For stealing you..?"

“Isn't that enough? ”

“Yes, I do. But why did he steal you? ”

"I wanted to steal it. ”

Munet said in a cynical tone.

"Such a human being. A very typical thief who doesn't convince the world there's something he can't have. If you want to have it, don't use any number. I don't even care who it hurts. ”

"... Do you remember the old parents? ”

"It was your age. When I woke up, I woke up on a wagon I'd never seen before. ”

Muñet did not speak easily for a moment, but soon added in a quiet voice.

"The memory I had before was just the face of a woman who was smiling at me. Maybe..... my mother. ”

"Is that so?”

I thought so. Why do you hate the Father who gives him infinite love right now? But he was not entitled to counsel even if he did not know his parents' faces.

"So, what about you? Are you sure about that?"

"...... Why did you leave such a curse?"

I heard that there are magicians who specialize in the ‘curse’. Nevertheless, the curse left by Eroc was not unusual. If you think that the Spirit is also influenced by your relationship with the other person, you might be the one who weighs that much on Eroc's words.

That's how much I loved him.

And still, the curse..... means that even after the curse, you still haven't abandoned that love.

It was bitter. Eroc made me feel good, so I didn't leave such a curse. Muñet said quietly.

“I don't know. He didn't want to talk about it. ”

".... You will do everything you say, even if you don't know? You didn't even decide to take it, did you? Why the hell are you helping me? Are you sure it's just a matter of years? ”

"Didn't you say there's a girl you like? ”

"You never said you'd do anything she told you to do. ”

“That's the difference between a man and a woman. ”

Muñet was sluggish.

"When you're in the swamp of rational thinking, we know how to hear your heart. ”

"... I didn't think you'd like to write poetry. ”

Van grumbles with a thick face. And it was then. Arotep, who had walked long before, approached them and coughed in vain.

“Have you ever heard of men and women?"

"... so I'm not interested in your daughter?"

"Don't be ridiculous. Of course you can't be against it yet. But when I look at this waist, my legs, my face, what kind of a man...? ”

"More than that, I'll rip your tongue open. Let's see if you can regenerate during the day. ”

"…… I got it. Okay, so let's put this rapier down. ”

“Hm.”

Munet turns his head freshly and runs the camel. The heat in the desert was hot. Van looked at Arotep and asked.

"Didn't Vampires rot flesh under the sun? ”

“So you're wearing thick clothes. And it's okay to rot for a second. I'll be right there.”

"..... it's not like eternal life was wrong. ”

Van had a bad taste. I thought so. It might not be so bad to have a vampire body. Wouldn't you at least be able to come to the battle without worrying about the wounds?

‘No, but I don't want to lose the warmth of the sun.'

Crossing the desert was never easy. They sometimes watched the desert breeze change the direction and position of the hill, and had to trick the oasis twice into one mirage. And so, when the palm grove began to appear, Van was relieved instead of rejoicing.

'...... it's real. ’

The appearance of the forest still did not disappear, even with the mobilization of Gi. After a little while, I didn't even know if I'd have to pee. Arotep raised his voice to his companions.

"Stand by at the entrance of the forest. The fewer things you move, the better. ”

They nodded quietly and began to conceal themselves quietly. It was never a good idea to make a big noise in the forest in the south. Arotep whispered to Van and Munet.

"You have to hide without sound or sight. This realm..... is a place that you know. ”

“Well, well…… yes. ”

"Follow me.”

The branches became their way. Arotep was not welcome to leave a footprint, nor to make popularity. Running over the trees without a sound, he tried not to even breathe when he was dizzy.

He wasn't trying to avoid the snake or the monkey, of course. No matter how powerful snakes and monkeys are, this horrible vampire can't. There were wild and dangerous people in the jungle that were incomparable with the beasts.

A sharp tension surrounded them. No sound, no popularity, and they raced like a ray of light. Despite the fact that the tree was being used as a foothold, it was a speed that would not be far behind compared to a dog running in the plains.

Nevertheless, Arotep's face quickly began to feel a waste.

"...... I got caught. Speed up!”

Unknown pressure was surrounding them. It felt like every life in the trees, the wind, the grass, the flowers, the bees, the snakes, the jungle was watching them. The higher the speed, the more frustrated it was to surround them, not to liberate them. I felt like I was running in the net.

And it wasn't just a feeling.

Van stops his feet first. And then Munet and Arotep stopped, sighing. Countless pilots surrounded them.

[Who dared to invade Druid's Forest?]

"..... You're angry. ”

Arotep sighs. Even at that moment, his eyes were swiftly searching the forest. I crossed it as fast as I could, but that wasn't enough.

"I'm just a passing traveler. I don't dare hurt Druid, so if you just let me go..."

[You smell blood. Very thick.]

"…… is that so? I even ate meat on the way. ”

[I don't think it smells like animal blood.]

Their voices had already noticed their identity. And it was then. Under the ground. On the trees. Behind the stump. Above the wolf. Those dressed in the hides of different beasts began to come to them with the same energy as the beasts.

And it was then. Van came forward. The moment Munet tried to tell me not to do anything stupid, Van's voice quietly rang.

"It's called half. I've been invited. ”

[…… Invitation? You mean the Great Druid invited a fellow vampire?]

“There's a misunderstanding, but I'm not a friend of that stinky guy over there. And yes, that's right. I was invited by an old friend of mine to look for the forest of Druids. ”

Van laughed bitterly. I didn't expect to use this invitation in this situation. If I see you again, I thought you'd look better then.

"Free Knight Van, I would like to meet the monks with an invitation from Zeo of Eustein.

The Forest of Druids. It is also called the Forest of Eustein.
