The Traveling Hero Won’t Let the Innkeeper’s Son Escape

"Orha!? and............ Lady Lara!?

I wondered why this combination was here, but the knife flew to my side sooner than I asked.

'I searched! It was Orha, the weapon/orihalcon, who had left it at the inn, glued around Ruth all the time saying'. As Ruth reaches out, she sticks with each sheath perfectly. He also seemed angry that he had repeatedly flashed and left him at the inn.

"Gah, gah, gah!

"Wow!

As soon as Orha jumped, the Leion youth - Lara, who was staying at the Inn - hit her with a big body. He buries Ruth in his chest, arms around his back, and says, "Gawgaw." I don't know in the words of the Leion tribe, but he seemed thrilled to see Ruth.

"Hey, Lady Lara, that pleasure is fine, but!

"Gaw, gaw, gaw!

Excited Lara doesn't hear Ruth's words, she cheeks as she uses her strength with her goose.

When Ruth was uncomfortable with the behavior, Lara peered into her face and licked it with a big tongue. A warm, shiny feel passes through Ruth's mouth.

He was Ruth, embraced by Moffmoff's hair and immersed himself in the mood he had been nostalgic for by a large animal, but thought it would just be a little different to lick his face, pushing Lara's face hard.

"Ga, Gau?

"Hey, if you can stop doing that...... I'm in trouble"

I don't know what that meant, maybe it's normal in the Layon tribe, but from Ruth's point of view, I kinda didn't like it when customers licked my face.

Ruth, who told him calmly, walked away from Lara with a surprised expression, wiping his licked mouth with his clothes. I knew this would not make them feel good, but I had to make a statement of intent to say, "I can't accept favors that went too far." Even if they look like animals, they're subhuman youths.

"K...... wu......"

To Ruth's behavior, Lara shriveled to see. Now I know my intentions have been clearly communicated, but at the same time, I feel a little pathetic. The combination of golden hyena and green eyes is poisonous to the eyes because it reminds Alec.

"Hey, Kumo... I'm doing it... you gave it to me!

Ruth and the others reunite in gratitude (?) As I was, I heard a squeaky woman.

Natasha is the only one left in this room, but it sounds completely different than when I was talking to Ruth earlier.

"Na, Tasha, huh?

When I turned my gaze to Natasha, who was supposed to have fallen, there was a lump that nodded away from the pillar of light.

"- This ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh! Again, you. Ahhh!

The way Natasha stood up wasn't what Ruth knew.

Natasha screaming abominably - had become an old woman. The red hair, which was beautiful, has no more luster and mixed gray hair. The beautiful face also contains deep wrinkles, and only the eyeballs stand out as gnarly. The body, which was full and luscious, had also swelled about three times, and no hips and chest puffiness had been found. It is no exaggeration to say that the only remnants of Natasha are the porcupines on the mouth.

When Lara leaves in front of Ruth, she turns around and takes her sword out of nowhere. At the same time, an aura seeped around him.

(That, that color?

The light was golden.

"Vooooooo!"

Lara, who roared, was slashed by Natasha, who was falling. Natasha manages to dodge the sword by cleverly moving the old woman's body.

"Gaaaaaa!"

"I thought it would come one day, but it's too soon. Ruth and I were in a cage for the rest of our lives!

"Wow, wow!

Lara roars loudly as she screams' Don't be ridiculous'. While playing some of the dozens of attacks by the magic unleashed by Natasha, he avoids and advances. The speed with which you are flying through space is not something you can follow in Ruth's eyes.

Eventually reaching Natasha with a tremendous move, he chops off her arm, which was unleashing sorcery as he lowered. Letting Natasha, who gave her a bloodbath and screamed, kick her relentlessly, this time releasing something like a shock from her body and continuing to attack her.

Shockmen fly to Natasha, who hit the wall with the power of a kick. The scream stuck around.

(Yes, too unilateral………)

The difference in power between Lara and Natasha was historical. Even though Natasha is somewhat powerless in her act of self-harm, Lara is hunting her down almost exclusively with sword attacks. I didn't use any sorcery.

Its appearance surrounded by golden flames with overwhelming strength overlaps what Ruth knows.

……

When his right hand, which was grasping Orha, was pulled and turned to you, he noticed a crack in his surroundings from the pillar of light from which Lara and Orha came out. Hibi grows with every attack Lara makes on Natasha.

(What that voice was saying, maybe it wasn't a lie)

That voice said if you attack Natasha, the nucleus, Ruth can leave. Hibi spreads every time Natasha is attacked to prove it. In other words, her body is the key to maintaining the balance of this world. I'm sure when Natasha stabbed herself in the body, she left enough room to look seriously ill and keep the space closed.

Eventually the floor began to shake and the surrounding walls collapsed so that the egg shell peeled off. The black world brightens up.

"Ugh... uhh, the space, now!

When Natasha, who wears out and bleeds, paints a circle on the universe, the demon cube rises and sucks on the wall. The broken outer wall stayed on the spot. Such reinforcement is also immediately crushed by the shock wave emitted by Lara.

"More than that. - Whoa, whoa!

He was Natasha, who put up a wall drawing a dozen demonic squares in front of him on the looming Lara, but with each of those walls he was pounded with a sword to raise his blood.

Lara shook down the sword, which pierced her heart deeply, diagonally as she pulled it out. Natasha's head rolls on the floor.

(Hip!)

Ruth was frightened by Natasha, who had only his head, but his eyes could be seen confirming the area as gorgeous. He didn't die looking like that.

"Ko, this... Gu!

It was Natasha, who opened her mouth even when it was just her neck, but Lara pokes her sword from the side at its mouth.

Lara, glancing at Natasha, who would storm even if she was kept with the floor and unable to move, trampled all of her slow-moving body with her golden flame-covered legs. The only thing left in Natasha is the head.

Lara's green eyes stare cold at Natasha's head. I pulled out the sword I was stabbing.

"... come on, come on, if you vanish here, your body will die too... I, I, yet!

"Grrrrrrrr......"

Lara's eyes had no sympathy color whatsoever. Lift your shining sword high without hesitation.

"- Shit, wait!

Ruth rushed over to the two of them as he hung his still voice.

"You don't have to go that far. Mr. Natasha can't be a good person.................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................

Taking his eyes off Natasha's worn head, Ruth touched that arm as he stared at Lara.

The green eye looks straight at Ruth and waits for Ruth's words.

"- It's not about you getting your hands dirty. If you really need to do this, I'll do it, so be it. Hey, Alec?

Lara in Ruth's words - Alec, with the face of the Leion tribe, peels his eyes and extinguishes the flame from his eyes as the heat cools. He pulled his sword out of his arms and went somewhere.

"Kwoo, woo............!

Turning off his earlier burning aura, he hugs Ruth with his arms wide open with a pitiful voice.

Now I hugged back Ruth's body, which I could tell from the top of my clothes.

Neither his face nor his body looked human because of his hairy hair, but the movement creeping over his neck was the same as Alec's usual.

(After all, it's Alec)

Ruth smiled with certainty. I get sorry at the same time.

"Kuw......"

"Sorry, sorry. I didn't realize Lara was Alec."

"Gww, ww!

"'Cause you look completely different, you don't get the word, you can't help it, can you? I don't think he's a Rayon."

"Uuuuuuuuuu......"

I don't know why Alec looks like a Leion youth, but now I think Lara was desperately appealing to Ruth for something. I'm sure you want to try to sue me for being Alec.

There may have been moments when I thought about it, but Ruth didn't care about the spiritual festival preparations, the disappearance and taking care of Ed, and Remias' opponent, so he was full of details.

(Still, Ike Lara and Alec Gala - that's too similar on second thought....... lets notice when i write it on paper, me)

Why do you have a pseudonym? Why would he look like that? Why have you been in the inn for a few days? 'And although there are many questions, if it were Alec the brave, it would be that he would be a Layon tribe under some circumstances. I reflected a little that I should have thought a little more flexibly.

"You came all the way here worried about me. Thanks, Alec."

"Kww."

Alec shook his head just saying 'naturally'.

"Ah..."

"Google......"

The cracks in the space grew and the ground began to shake heavily. In the distance, even the ground has begun to collapse, with fewer scaffolding steps. I realize that this is not the case and let go of my body.

Alec picked up Ruth's owed knife. Turn the pattern to Ruth and the tip of the sword to Natasha's head.

"Gww?"

"What are you going to do with Natasha," I guess. Ruth found Natasha with a few thoughts.

Natasha's body is crushed by Alec, and his remaining head is worn out. From not playing it, I guess its power is not left either. The world she has created is also so devastating that it seems irreparable. It's terrible.

And in Natasha's eyes, she lowered the knife when she noticed that Ruth's colors were floating as she thought.

"... Natasha, won't you do this again?

"I can't... I can't. There is little, no magic... for hundreds of years, magic, we need to build up..."

"Alec, is that true? Can't she move for a while?

"Gaw."

Alec shook his head vertically. There is a chance that Natasha alone is lying, but if Alec is going to snort, he really won't be able to undo it that easily.

"Can you swear that after hundreds of years of accumulation, you will never do this again? If you don't swear, you're gonna suck your last force with this knife, too, right?

"... Oh, no, I'm going to stop and disappear! ………………………………………"

"I believe that word. Don't break your promise."

Ruth looked into Natasha's eyes and told her to crouch in. Natasha had wolfed eyes, but Ruth kept her eyes open.

"Gaw......"

"Yeah, yeah. Let's go."

Encouraged by a slightly dissatisfied Alec, Ruth stands up and heads with Orha to the crack they came in.

"Hey, please, don't go... stay here and you'll be safe. Please, don't go………………………………………………………………"

Turning around, Natasha was only looking at me sadly.

I felt like her last words were meant to be.

(I'm sure you did...... Natasha missed you. I know)

- That's why Ruth didn't use a knife. I decided to leave Natasha alone in this world that she couldn't move for a while. Because I thought this should be punishment for her.

(Sorry, Mr. Natasha...)

To Natasha, who is believed to have a sad past enough to do this for a thousand years, as Alec tried to do, it was probably the only thing that made her happy to kill you.

But Ruth doesn't choose it. To distract myself from loneliness, I don't choose a path that ends easily for her, who was playing with unrelated people. I think we should devote ourselves to treatment for hundreds of years in a small space and taste strong solitude.

- But one day, when magic comes back to normal and you can move freely, if you touch people, you may see the gratitude of being with others. Then I might not imitate this anymore. He should keep his promise to Ruth, too.

I can't see Ruth seeing the end of it, but I'd like to see it depend on the kindness that's in her heart. She could have manipulated Ruth to keep her locked here, but she didn't do it.

"... Natasha, if you go to the outside world and make contact with a lot of people, you won't be lonely. Try to come out when your body heals after a few hundred years. Goodbye, then."

Ruth is drawn to the pillar of light by Alec. Consciousness gradually clears up.

Natasha, who was at the edge of his sight, disappeared.

"Ruth, be careful... the effect of your title of" The Fate of the Brave "is powerful. I'm sure... you can't escape..."

Natasha's words, whining in a crumbling world, did not reach Ruth's ears.
