The Road to One Day Be the Strongest

016 The city of Pacyria

"You are... somehow normal, aren't you?"

The sight of that word, which was said a long time ago, still remains snaggy in the back of my brain.

- Normal.

The words were said, laughing bitterly.

Don't hesitate, then let it go.

I was told to be pale.

When did that happen?

In middle school, when I was removed from the regulars of my club.

When he was dropped in a part-time interview.

Oh, in retrospect, did they always say that?

Normal, common, common, universal.

A man who can never get out of the 'normal' realm no matter how hard he tries.

That was me - Kuse Dragon Horse.

"No, no, no! You manukee! '

"If you regret it, call me!

"Ha ha! I don't know if such a weak person can do that!

In elementary school, I remember being bullied.

There are three bullies.

My classmates in the class looked at them and pretended not to see them, and the teacher cautioned against them, but at the same time stopped watching the three of them not reflect.

And I'm - I'm alone.

Classmates avoided me because they didn't like to be bullied together, teachers avoided me because they didn't like to be consulted, all that remained was loneliness and three demons.

- Hell, he said.

Yeah, I guess that's what you call it.

Even death is lukewarm, hell no one can rely on.

Living hell, in the name of solitude.

How many times might I have thought that it would be better to die?

But I had parents. Grandpa and Grandma were there. That's why I couldn't tolerate wanting 'death'. Because it results in grief for everyone.

And that's why I keep stalling in that hell.

- And I met him.

"You, dickhead."

I remember being told that.

I also remember that the words were heavier, sharper, pierced my heart and made me cry eyes than any of the bullies.

And when he looked at me like that, he laughed.

'Look, I cry right away. That's why they lick me, and in the end, this kind of hell is complete. You can't rely on anyone, you don't beg anyone for help, you stall in hell of loneliness'

Then he hoisted the edge of his mouth and laughed nicely.

So stop being weak. You're weak, they think you're inferior from around, all converge for one reason [because you're weak]. So it's enough to say when. One day you'll graduate from the weak. "

That's why he left before me.

Who you might be your first friend to.

Such an opponent waved every inch of his hand and disappeared from before me.

I still remember the sight of that time.

I'll see you tomorrow anyway. That's what I thought and dropped off his back.

I don't think he was taller than I was at the time. Despite that, his back was big, great, brilliant, and he was the best looking.

That's why I admired that back.

I envied, envied, and set myself a goal.

I want to be the kind of man this guy will recognize one day.

That's what I've been thinking since this day.

"... yeah! Kuse!"

They call me by my name and I wake up.

Let me get some more sleep. When I forced the heavy eyelid that told me so to open my sight, I saw Aisa's face in front of me.

"... what are you doing"

"I'm here to wake you. Yikes! He said he'd be in the city of Pacyria by now!

She swells her cheeks like angry. What? This is adorable.

And I shake my head like I'm kind of falling asleep and driving my drowsiness. Something, I felt like I was having a nostalgic dream, but I can't remember it as one if I wake up.... What the hell were you dreaming about?

"... I don't care"

Growling, he stretches his body wide.

The moon has only flown a little since then. After that, we decided to lend a little help to the reconstruction of the King's capital and leave immediately for Pacyria.

I was handed a level amount that I've never had a bit of as a requisition fee at that time, but in view of our party members, I really said, 'I'm not going this far!' The word did not appear. I'm sorry, Mr. Gilbert.

Grace told me when I left Wang Capital, 'You're going to be stronger than me next time. Because of this already, I received the phrase' come beyond even that idiot who peed '. There is also something unscrupulous about it.

I sighed unexpectedly and looked outside, where there was a familiar plain, and over there I could see a nostalgic town.

- The city of Pasilia.

It is the first city of Gin's first stop and the place where his legend began to be told.

Waiting for us to arrive in the city of Pasilia was a dark elf that brightened blue eyes and made silver hair windy.

"Hey, I've been waiting for you, Dragon Horse Kuse"

"Long time no see, Laicia (...)"

His woman's name is Laicia.

Make it a dark elf. That Mr. Elsa's loving apprentice.

A woman who is also the guild master of this city.

"I'm surprised. All of a sudden, the king contacted me in an emergency communication. I didn't know you were coming to see those two... but I didn't know what to do with them."

"Those two......"

Unexpectedly, to that whining word, Mr. Lacia grinned bitterly as she was tired, silently pointing behind my back.

I'm surprised at that, faster than looking back behind me.

My shoulder is starting to weigh a lot for both of us.

"Ha-ha-ha! You're the rumored Kuse! I've heard so much from silver! Kind of a frustrating one who's been doing weak things forever, 'cause!

"Right, right! Silver always took care of me -. Kuse is the first time you've been in such a hurry to rely on us for silver? Nice to meet you!

- Rude MAX from the beginning.

Unexpectedly looking back at my shoulder, those two men, retreating from my shoulders, pieces with a full grin.

"Nice to meet you! It's Uranos!

"In his wife Riesha!

"Duh, thanks..."

There was a handsome brunette, as tall as silver, and a woman with long gray hair in the wind.

Though I smile bitterly at the two of them who are kind of startlingly brain-weather, I remember a glimmer of suspicion at all that there was no sign of them.

And to turn that suspicion into certainty.

"Sticky."

A terrible bar-reading voice sounds from behind, and his shoulder is beaten to pieces.

Turn your neck and look behind you, but there Mr. Lacea is just laughing. As soon as I had a bad feeling and tried to get my gaze back, now my fingers are stuck straight from the front to my cheek.

"Not yet. I was right in front of you from the start."

"... a joke, right"

It was too familiar green haired elves to be there when you gazed in front of them as they cramped your cheeks.

She rocked her golden eyes with pleasure.

"It's been a while. It's Elsa."

Equivalent to, or more than, Gin.

That's what I have to say, a cover-up professional. Elsa stood there.

She had a lot of archery done as our teacher until Grace taught her. Therefore, I am familiar with your face... but I have to be nervous when I come forward with this face again.

All my people shut up without even opening their mouths to that evidence.

"Ah, Father. Mother."

- I thought you were there, but unfortunately one was different.

Normally Rin squeals like that and pushes forward to Mr. Uranos.

And the two of you can look at that and flatter your face.

"Oh Rin! Long time no see!"

"Yikes! Rin, it's been a while! How have you been?

"Yeah, I was fine."

Seeing that look, Mr. Lacia leaks a sigh with her hands to her temples like she's tired, and Elsa smiles with an emotionally unreadable grin.

However, such a sight can also disappear when Mr. Uranos cuts his gaze from Rin and points it at me.

"Well, Kuse, Kuse Ryuma. As long as I'm glad you're doing well as a friend of Silver or Rin, but this time you're here to see me, probably not 'father of a friend', but 'Uranos the Divine King'?

The words were sharp as if they were foresight of everything, cold as bottom cold.

This is - the most powerful figure you've ever seen.

Until earlier, he turns away and sees him begin to emit an overwhelming presence, even with cold sweat.

Then he puts his hand on his jaw.

"Well, how talented are you?"

So he started staring at me, but soon the words were jammed and his eyes opened.

The colour of 'stunner' is floating in its eyes, making me anxious that it would have screwed something up unexpectedly.

"... didn't you say anything when you met silver?

"Huh? Uh..."

- You can kill me if you want.

Two, the word is past my head.

I wondered if this was a good thing to say, but he grinned and opened his mouth.

"It's okay, because maybe that's the word for you, but at the same time it's for me, who will one day hear from you. So don't hesitate to talk to me."

Can this person... read people's minds?

I would look into my eyes without thinking so, but I wouldn't be able to read it to my heart to see that I haven't heard back from anything.

But what he said shoots at the target. Whether it's right or not, the fact that you call it pissy is too trustworthy a mark.

"'When it's time, you can kill me,' he said."

"... I didn't hear that"

Rin inflates her cheeks to reveal her dissatisfaction. That's Rin's fault for not saying 'sleepy' on that spot.

Thinking about it, Mr. Uranos puts his hands on his mouth with a huffy face down.

"No, can I kill you, or what? I see. I guess the boulder just said silver. Maybe that kid was even reading about this situation right now. Perhaps I don't even know. I even read what's going on, and I did the minimum I needed to do on it, and I told you that word."

"Everything...?

A law enforcement agency that lost silver flees into Forest Country, I go to Forest Country, Kyoka-san kicks me out, confronts the Great Devil in the Kingdom, and comes to him for strength.

You're telling me you've been reading what's been going on?

If so, he...

"Oh, you better not compete with that kid on the head. There is no such thing as surpassing him when it comes to brains. Also, I even read the development after my death, and it works on the premise of death, because it's not sane."

- On the premise of dying.

So he shrugged. He makes me laugh without even showing a shard of sadness.

"Well, I just found out (...) why (...) silver (...) was (...) entered (...) by you (...) and (...) (...) (...) of (...). I push you to the bottom of fear and despair. [M] Nabu, probably, it takes as long as I can think of to kill him. Even this was formerly the King of God. Even the old silver would have prepared me for death a few times on my menu."

As he narrows his eyes softly, he tells them this with a cold glance.

"Hey, you (...) were (...) killed (...) by (...) absolute (...) versus (...). So don't worry, I can attack you with the intention of killing you."

The next moment - the time of the world stopped.
