The Exiled Hero Has Been Resummoned

chapter 13



13 – I Saw a Girl 3

Chenggurang!

The sword that the best Dwarf artisans worked with their heart and soul fell to the ground in vain.

Hearing that sound, Chaejin looked back and saw a girl kneeling down and screaming.

“I, I…… I can’t. To become a hero, you have to kill the hero…… I can’t do that.”

“Why? If there isn’t even a hero, it probably won’t be able to stop it. You and your precious things. If we don’t choose now, we’ll all die in vain.”

“But…… But…….”

Iril, who had been sitting and crying for a while and couldn’t get her words out, spoke his thoughts as if he managed to squeeze his voice out.

“You can’t do that! Hero-sama worked harder than anyone else, he saved the world by working hard, but it ended up like this because of other people, so why does Hero-nim have to sacrifice again?! Why does the warrior have to die! Why are the bad guys taking no responsibility and only the devoted warrior being betrayed like that, over and over again…….”

A transparent liquid that collects along the girl’s chin drips down her and wets the dirt floor.

“If that is the only way to be saved…… It might be better to perish…….”

Hwaaak-

I felt like the tattoos that had formed eventually covered my entire body.

Seeing the weakening energy of Divine Protection in my heart, it seemed as if the Divine Power had appeared on my skin in the form of a tattoo.

And it must be inheriting this.

To those who have a strong and noble will to the extent that the heart of a warrior who has been betrayed and has lost trust in humans is moved.

“Why did you think that? I’m nothing to you We just met for the first time today. You have to kill me to become a warrior who will protect the people you care about…… To blow such an opportunity.”

Iril sat down and raised his head, looking up at Chaejin as he answered.

“I am nothing to the hero either. But the hero fought and shed blood to save people like me. And today, the warrior saved me from dying. I was saved by the hero twice.”

So.

“That’s why I can’t betray the hero. At least if you have a human mind. That’s my death…… Even if it is the end of the world.”

Chaejin thought.

The girl’s body is weak.

However, she is stronger than anyone else in that she can walk right before dying in order to achieve one goal with her weak body.

It is transmitted to his heart that he has a desire similar to his own in coveting the position of a warrior.

However, even that intense desire to serve oneself, which is human nature, is directed toward serving others.

To Chaejin, it felt indescribably noble.

As his heart moved, his divine protection was fully manifested and he was able to pass it on to others.

‘Let’s think…… The conditions for imparting divine protection have been fulfilled. But is it right to hand over my protection now?’

Chaejin was able to know through the divine protection in his heart.

Even if you pass on the divine protection, the power itself that you have built up until now remains.

Although it is grown through the power of God’s Protection, God’s role is to make growth very fast.

Even if the divine protection disappeared, it was the same as having the power to compete with the world’s strongest.

‘Anyway, the symbolism of a hero will be a little less as he becomes a former hero instead of the current hero.’

If the empire learns this information, it will somehow gather troops to deal with Chaejin and try to capture the new warrior.

If that happens, it could be a bad ending for everyone.

Since I was going to head straight to the Holy Land, the possibility of that happening was very small, but I had to give up the many benefits that came with just having the divine protection.

‘If this guy really doesn’t betray me until the end, it’s right to give it to him.’

Thinking calmly, does Chaejin really want this world to perish?

It’s not like that.

He also had a desire to destroy the forces that brought him such misery, and to live a new life in this world.

Anyway, even if I go back to the other world, it’s the same as having no place to stand right now.

Rather than going back and losing strength, it would be better to live here with at least some strength left.

Nevertheless, the fact that they were passive in preventing destruction and had no willpower was a great feeling of desperation.

As the clone reawakened, it became much stronger than before.

However, he feels that he has already strengthened to the limit.

It was correct to assume that Chaejin had little chance of winning no matter what she did.

Also, he thought that it would not be bad to see them perish rather than fail after being exploited.

So, the goddess must have said the same thing as inheriting the divine protection.

She needed a new hero at this point anyway.

‘Because there are not only humans in this world. Even humans, there must be pure beings like him.’

The strong will of the different races to stand up to the end even if they knew they couldn’t win also played a part in moving Chaejin’s heart.

Woong-woong-

The light of divine protection expressed on the skin is about to go out.

‘I can tell. If I don’t tell them now, I don’t know when another opportunity will come.’

In the end, Chaejin won his heart.

If I’m wrong, I sneak in, do a massive sword dance, then go back to the original world and live roughly.

With that in mind, he said.

“Okay then. Starting today, you are a warrior.”

“Yes?”

To Chaejin’s laughing voice, Iril gave a really stupid answer.

“It was just a test. You don’t have any intention of saving the world, but would you willingly hand over your power to a guy who said he would kill me and become a hero? It means that your answer was correct on the test I gave.”

“Ah…… Ah…… !”

Numerous emotions mixed and swirled inside of Iril.

To say that was the case, that my thoughts were correct.

To be recognized by the hero who saved the world was an incredible honor and shock to her.

“From now on, I will hand over the blessing to you…… Previously. I’m determined to get revenge on the empire that betrayed me no matter what. If you want to become a hero, you must swear to help me destroy the empire.”

“I swear.”

“Answer immediately?”

“I will never betray the hero. I will do anything for the hero. The hero is my idol, the savior of my life, strong, handsome, kind, and good at cooking…… Anyway, he’s become a precious person to me.”

“… ….”

“Ah…… Did you ever feel bad? For someone like me to say that the hero is a precious person…….”

“…… No, I’m just happy.”

“Really, really!?”

“That’s right.”

Iril stood up from her seat and trembled with her fists clenched.

Those were spasms of joy.

Her face is hard to see because it is covered by her hair, but she must have bright eyes.

“Revenge on the Empire…… It’s not that I haven’t thought about it at all. The bad guys who betrayed you in the end despite all your dedication must be judged! I will do my best to make it the way you think.”

Chaejin can’t completely see through Leel’s inner thoughts.

Even if he said that now, Leel could have betrayed himself as time passed.

However, Chaejin decided to trust humans one last time.

This was really the last time.

‘Imperial bastards…… This world may be saved, but I will definitely put an end to your world.’

Chaejin, once again determined to take revenge, put her hands on both of Iril’s shoulders and asked for it.

“I will hand over my protection to you now. But I don’t know what will happen if I receive this. It might hurt a lot, so you better prepare your mind.”

“…… Knock.”

The sound of swallowing came all the way from here.

“Me, me! No matter what happens, I will persevere! I will make it!”

“Okay then… ….”

Chaejin closed her eyes.

Seeing that, Iril also closed his eyes.

Obviously, at first, he didn’t know how to pass the divine protection, but at this moment, it came to Chaejin’s mind naturally.

Chizuzuzu-

The tattoos on Chaejin’s body move organically and move to the part that touches Leel.

‘Ah… ….’

Aura that gives off a warm and cozy feeling.

Erill realized.

This is the true identity of the weak energy in the grass ring inside the bottle.

That fullness filled her heart.

However, that wasn’t the only thing Chaejin gave.

[ Ugh, it hurts, it hurts so much… …. ]

[ You’ll have to go through this pain again when you wake up tomorrow. ]

[ How long can I endure this……. ]

The succession of divine protection was not just about making the other person a warrior.

The hardships, adversity, and despair that those who originally possessed the Protection went through to grow it…… Negative emotions.

Those sharp auras also pierced her heart.

‘The hero…… Becoming a warrior, this kind of pain…….’

[ Why, Elua. ]

[ Why were you able to smile so kindly when you didn’t really love me. How could she say I love her with those eyes? ]

[ I, I… Did you come back? Because of that reverse summon? ]

[ Did you banish me? You saved my life through such hard work, but you didn’t want to give me what you promised, so you hit me in the back like this? ]

[ hahahaha, hahahaha, hahahahaha……. ]

[ …… There was no place for me to stand in the first place. ]

[ Both this world and that world. No matter what i do it’s the same No matter how much I sacrificed and how dedicated I was, this is what I was destined to be in the end. ]

“Keep off…… !”

The emotions Chaejin felt at the time turned into arrows and pierced Irill’s heart.

It’s so sad and painful.

Even though she didn’t experience it herself, her heart ached as if she had been subjected to an unreasonable thing.

She couldn’t resist the urge that was now running through her head.

Wow!

She rushed into Chaejin’s arms and hugged him tightly.

“Hero! I, I, I will not betray the hero… ! Never, never! I will create a world where the warrior can live in peace. So, so…….”

His shirt was wet with Iril’s tears.

“Have hope. Don’t despair any more. Now, instead of the hero, I will shoulder everything, so please watch over me…….”

[ Save me…… Help me. Warrior, please save me. ]

It was a completely different feeling than anyone who had wet this shirt with tears before.

Chaejin also hugged her gently and with her strength.

Suddenly thinking about it, it seems like it was the first time.

That someone sheds tears only for themselves.

Even though the succession of Gaho ended, the two stayed that way for a while.

It’s only the first time I’ve seen it today, but the two have developed a deep bond.

The hero and his successor.

It wasn’t simply tied together with that name.

They were feeling it intuitively.

It is said that ‘we resemble each other in the form of our minds’.

A life in which he could not mix with others because he was born with a defect.

Even if you try to overcome it, all you get back is failure and greater discouragement.

Becoming a hero, enduring all sorts of hardships and adversity, and wanting to be recognized by others even if it meant saving the world were very similar.

Perhaps the goddess wanted to say that.

Rather than a person who has everything perfect from birth and has no deficiencies, a person who has no distorted mind and whose altruism is not damaged even with such deficiencies can be called truly noble.

And a human being who did it with ‘free will’ without being controlled by anyone was the right person to become a hero.
