Tower of Karma

"Buha, not at all, well said, but not in a good mood"

Al, who crossed the sea of manure and escaped the king's capital. Proceed as far away from the Wang capital as the forest, and discover the fountain. I was finally able to wash my body and clothes. Is it the body's defensive function that still paralyzes your nose?

"Never go through sewage again, motherfucker."

Sewage was so full of strange odors that you couldn't do it if you didn't do it badly. No matter how much I wash, I don't feel the smell will fall off. In fact, it is better to throw away the clothes already.

"Well, for now, buy some clothes from the merchant, and that's it"

Thoughts I was stretching. I just haven't boiled that fine up ahead. Sometimes the element of uncertainty was huge and the outside of the first king's capital out, leading to the idea that it was useless to just boil it down.

"I gained the foundational strength to live. Adrift will work."

Five years for what. I'm ready to do whatever I can. All you have to do is exchange.

"Come on, lady. It's the beginning of our journey."

Al went up from the fountain and changed into the travel costume bundle he had prepared. But...

"Oh, shit."

After all, Al decided he would never go through sewage or anything again.

○

"Height, no. That one's in shape. Is that a tough age?"

Al was taking a break on the roadside of a street. A short distance from Wang Du, this is the convergence point of the streets that connect Wang Du with the others. We're taking a break a little further, and we're making what looks like an observation.

By the way, I bought the clothes from the merchant on the way. He looked a little nasty, but gold is gold, even with shitty coins. I can't use it. You look disgusted.

"You're not quite there. Don't panic here, but if this keeps coming off, we might need a little directional modification."

Al clouds his expression a little less confident.

"That's right. This is the only... Hmm?

At the end of Al's gaze, a certain person entered his eyes.

"When I was tall, in shape, and old, the conditions were perfect. The rest depends on the country of origin, huh? Now I've forgotten a few, but do you want to hit it?"

Al lifted his hips and began to walk behind the person with his gaze.

"Hi, nice to meet you. May I borrow your fire?

All of a sudden the young man who was called out sees the person with surprised eyes. I can probably understand what they said in these words, but I couldn't hear them very well.

…… Ar, eagle, mada, kotoba, muzkasii "

"Um, where are you from?

The man facing each other spoke slowly to convey a little.

"... Lucitania"

They're probably asking me the name of my hometown. That's what the young man replied. But I don't think they know. The man in front of you is eating. The young man sighed.

'You've come a long way. Welcome to Arcadia'

A young man who was suddenly spoken in his native language and faced the other way around.

'I'm also traveling a little bit, and I'm once familiar with foreign languages there. Oh, may I borrow the fire earlier, let me speak to you'

"Doh, go ahead."

Youth remain stunned. From here, Lucitania is ahead of many countries. Moreover, it is so small that it cannot be compared to Arcadia, one of the Seven Kingdoms. Even what you know is surprising, but outside the thoughts of youth, such as being able to speak the language.

'No, it's amazing how long you travel so far in as many years as you do'

'No, not me at all. I can't believe I'm that fluent in foreign languages at the same age than that. I think you're more amazing.'

"I think Lucitania is more famous than you think. Wooden crafts are also popular with aristocrats over here, and Lucitania is a few steps ahead of other countries when it comes to pharmacology. In the field of blacksmiths, an unparalleled sword is supposedly made in other countries. It's an amazing country. '

The young man seemed to unwind his mind a little bit by the man smiling.

'Oh, with that said, you still had to introduce yourself. My name is Norman. What about you?'

"It's William. Nice to meet you, Mr. Norman. '

Youth, William was totally forgiving. So much so that a man named Norman was a man of strange charm. It is also significant to be around the same age. Anyway, I feel good, William was starting to think so.

"Why did Mr. Norman travel?

'Right. Want to see the wider world, have a trip. It's just not sweet. I was having trouble eating and doing Treasure Hunt impersonations and such, haha'

"Treasure Hunt!? Wow! Can you let me talk to you!?

Norman laughs bitterly at William's eating. And did you get a little embarrassed, William - turned red a lot.

'I don't mind. Right. That's from the Seven Kingdoms.'

Two people who spoke all night. Looking completely unraveled, we were to head to the Wang Capital together for a few more days.

○

The carriage is different next to the two. Fu and William looked at Norman's head.

"Norman, by the way. Why are you bandana?

Two people who have already deepened into calling each other in a call-out.

'I have a lot of gray hair. It doesn't look very good.'

"Young gray hair?" In my hometown, they say a lot of young gray hair makes me healthier. Red hair like me is also said to be a sign of luck. "

'Well, that's the first ear. Shall we remove the bandana when we stop in Lucitania?'

I'll show you then.

"Nice to meet you"

William was sure at this time. I'm sure I'll do well about King Arcadia Capital, too. Because I've made so many friends.

"Could we have been friends?

"I thought we were friends."

That being said, William had a full grin.

○

It's still cold at night this season. The two approach the fire and squeeze the cold.

"I have a fiancé. I wanted to be the man she deserved, and I've come this far. It's my dream to be a triumph in my hometown."

William begins to talk about the burning fire in.

'She says she only wants to marry a strong man. So I decided to go on a journey. [M] If she does, she'll cry before I embark on my journey. Don't go, or something. You're on your own, aren't you? But I guess it was nice to see you liked me. All you have to do is raise your martial arts!

'Fiancé, does that mean the house is wealthy?

William thinks a little.

"Hmm, I think it's richer, but it's not like the King's Capital of the Seven Kingdoms, and it's a boring place full of woods and mountains,"

'I see. I'd like to go there once.'

'Come on! Norman would be very welcome!

The story plays. Almost to King's Capital. But I'm not worried about William. Such a thing was scratching out at last. All thanks to my friend, Norman.

○

The journey I walked with for a few days is almost over. It will reach the King's Capital around noon tomorrow.

William was having a little bit of a rush tonight.

'May I take your seat off for a moment?

Where are you going?

Norman stands up in the air.

'Well, it's a treasure hunt impersonation. They buried the treasure of a bandit under a tree in the woods. It has already been said that the bandit was executed in another country and that only treasure remained there.'

William sparkles his eyes. It looks intriguing.

'Do you want to come with me?

"Yeah!"

To William's immediate response, Norman smiled.

Two people off the street and into the woods. Naturally there were no people, and only darkness ruled this place.

'Right here. You have to dig there, so wait.'

Norman took out the tools to dig the hole and stuck it on the ground. Zakuzaku, Zakuzaku. The wet earth cannot be dug without considerable effort.

"Ugh, pretty awesome"

Norman looking tired. William stood up just looking at it and watching.

'I'll help, too. Norman on his behalf'

'Thank you. Let's take turns.'

William started digging. Norman digs incredibly hard.

'Cause I've been playing in the mountains since I was a kid. I'm good at this kind of stuff. "

William digs in with great momentum. Norman gets shabby on the contrary.

"By the way, William. Did you leave your luggage on the bonfire?

'Eh, eh... no, I brought something important over here for once?

"Ho ho, what's important?

"Uh, uh, uh, money, of course, and the sword your father made for me, and maybe more ID cards. If we get here, we can do something with those three."

"Oh, may I take a look at the sword forged by the Lucitanians, who are also that blacksmith kingdom?

'I don't mind. By the way, how far should I dig this?

"Almost there."

Norman fishes his luggage and finds his sword. And I found the parchment beside it, and Norman's mouth angle rose.

"Eh, heh, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey.

'Not yet. Oh, this is amazing. A very beautiful sword.'

Brilliant, white-bladed sword. How much money would you need if you were to try to get this in Arcadia? Even nobles can't hold this many swords. Norman is fascinated by a form that combines beauty and toughness.

'Right! My father doesn't wear sword arms, but sword blacksmiths are top notch. By the way, haven't you? I've already dug quite a bit though. Maybe it's somewhere else?

Dig in, and the treasure won't show up even though you can make a hole that's going to let one person in.

'No, that's where it must be for sure. I'm sure it will be soon.'

"Am I right? Where people have dug should be a little easier to dig. Sorry, Norman, I'm a little tired. Can I take turns?

William speaks to Norman behind his back.

'Yeah, I get it. I'll take your place.'

William looked back to give me the tools to dig the hole.

"Ever since, right?"

William's abdomen was brilliant with beautiful silver. A delicacy that my own father created with care. That pierces William. William didn't understand. The disaster that befell me.

"Why?

William is fine. Fluffy and blood fall from the sword.

"Why did Norman take me?"

It should be noted that William was unbelievable. I thought we were friends. I believed we had become best friends. From now on, I was sure that a glorious future awaited us both.

"Kuku, Norman, huh? First of all, I'm not Norman."

The young man named Norman removes the bandana. Fluffy and spreading Sarasa whites. Brilliant white reflecting on the moonlight might even think it's usually beautiful. But now all I can think of is fear. And the look on that guy's face...

"My name is William. You're the one who gives it to me. Joy, your name spreads to this world, and your presence leads over Arcadia. I'll raise you to martial arts. So die. '

A gray-haired man sticks a blade at William. He was beaten and forged to protect William. That cut off William's meat as easy. My right arm dances.

'Yikes, I don't know what that means!? We were friends! No, you didn't. Whoa, whoa, whoa!

William screaming. But the voice reaches no one. Nothing lives in this forest. And so far from the streets. William's mourning reaches no one. And to the man in front of me...

"Friend, friend? No, I probably can't. I don't like you, and I'm sure I won't like you forever '

William's eyes were opened to despair.

"Blessed environment, I can see that I grew up loved. There's family, there's fiancé. Such luxury, such happiness, there's no way 'we' would allow it. Ooh!

More silver is brilliant. William's left arm danced. Nor does William's screaming echo the man in front of him. Such a heart is shattered five years ago.

'Happiness should have been taken care of! We shouldn't have gone higher here! If you misread the vessel, you'll die somewhere. So you thank me. As I wish, I will blow your name to this world!

William's consciousness was slowly becoming cloudy. Blood runs from the wound. Life falls by zero. Friendship with Norman, confidence in the future collapses.

"Oh, I'll finally teach you. All the treasure hunt stories were received and sold of books, Norman was the name of the shopkeeper who was selling the book, and - '

The White Ya devil kicked William. William falls into the 'hole'.

'That's your grave. Wiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiii

Decent thoughts had already disappeared from William. One was happy. Memories of his hometown. They run over your head. Important, memories with Fiancé. No other loving conversation with the family. The memory of my brothers, my sisters, the mountains...

"Whoa, my neck's sticking out, William."

Silver severed William's neck so as to sever it.

"Goodbye, William. I appreciate it."

Rolling necks are already unspeakable carcasses. He grabbed the red hair and the man threw his neck into the hole.

"Ugh, surprisingly... you can slash it easily. Or is this a good sword?

Back in the language of his own country, the man had a feeling of smudging and cutting off a man's life.

"It's okay, hey, don't worry. I'm surprised myself. I thought the first murder I did with my own hands was more like this, heartbreaking... yeah, nothing."

The plain looking man still looked like something broke, like that.

Pick up the 'William' shards scattered around the hole and throw them into the collection hole. After erasing all traces, he made a big stretch.

"Well no. This is where it comes from. I can make it in that country, or it will take a generation of battles. Let's bury this guy."

Begin to soil the hole. There's no expression on that face.

Another grey-haired man, Al, built up his business (Karma).
