Is this Hero for Real? chapter 9

"Tell me. I can't listen to the will of someone who is about to die... Wait a minute. The bugs are a bit noisy."

"Hey?! □, □

"Gagging! □□... Huh?!"

"□ mandible!"

The village chief beat the fairies with a whip without mercy.

match! match! match...!

Even if he yielded 100 times, his innocent face was not normal, like a mischievous naughty man who rejoices by biting off the legs and wings of insects.

"It's quiet now. It's fine to say."

The village chief, who put down the weapon with the fairy's blood and flesh, was proud of his hard work.

Did you show it to me on purpose?

Although I am not a psychologist or psychotherapist, I may want others to acknowledge what I believe to be 'justice'.

If so, what I'm going to say is decided.

"It must be difficult to walk silently on a road that no one knows about."

"… Do you understand?"

"Because I'm sassy."

"Aww… did I say lone wolf that roars through the wilderness? I did. Was I a prick too…"

"Some god nailed it as not."

I don't think so either!

But did I succeed in forming a sense of unity as I intended?

The village chief, feeling a sense of companionship to me, moved me to the side, which had been standing on the circular magic circle drawn in blood.

Oh! maybe i can live

The village chief immediately denied my hopes.

"I really like you! but i'm sorry You must be lonely in the future."

What kind of logic is this...?

At first, he kills me for the cause, and now he will kill me to remain as an assassin.

『A certain god is looking for the lost navel』

"It's not something to laugh at… "

"Today is a very happy day! Finally meeting a person who understands my sublime meaning! Dear strong comrade! See you there!"

"Ah yes."

From the moment the village chief declared, 'I'm cheap too!'

I don't know anymore.

"Hmm... Shall we use this guy who's in a bad state these days?"

A bare-faced male fairy was named.

"I can't. Your female has to live to please me a little more."

"□! □□! □ □□?!"

"Hahaha! Yes! Swear even more! For me, it is no less than a compliment!"

□! □□ City"

The fairies looked at the people chosen by the village chief with envy.

death.

The wish of all the fairies who are held captive in this bloody hell.

The lord of hell declared.

"Let's start."

The village chief, who laid the male fairy on the magic circle where I had just been, began to reverently cast a spell.

It was a prayer.

"Mother of life! Master of fate! Grant me the rest of this fairy's life!"

Wow-

The magic circle drawn in dark red blood began to glow softly.

"that's interesting."

If prayer alone could cause such a phenomenon, many religious people on Earth would have entered the world as wizards.

Then, is there a special device or meaning with that geometric pattern drawn on the magic circle?

When I was in a sentiment unsuitable for this crisis, the village chief asked the fairy.

"Declare that you will pass your life over to me."

"If you hand it over, promise me that your female will be sent to your side soon as well. You'll see what happens when you refuse my mercy, don't you?"

The fairy, who had kept her mouth shut, looked back at the female kin, who was supposed to be his wife, and gave a short answer.

"The contract has been made."

Paah-!

The magic circle's light exploded.

What was left behind was the corpse of a fairy, skinny like a mummy.

The words of the one whose life was taken away.

What is the state of the village chief who threatened the male fairy and took his life? Are you that young?

"… failure?"

He hasn't changed at all.

Still the same as a human male in his 30s.

The village chief responded by pulling the fairy's corpse from the magic circle.

"Dear comrade Kang Kang-soo. My black magic has been successful."

"Aren't you young at all?"

"Hahaha! It's because I'm not human."

"AHA!"

He knew from the beginning that he wasn't human. He just doesn't know what race he is.

The village chief confessed with a bubbly nuance that he would reveal a huge secret.

"I didn't sacrifice fairies to prolong life!"

"So?"

"Do you know how many lives of fairies and travelers I have taken away from living in this town? The fairy's curse is really absurd!"

"awesome."

It's not the flattery, it's the sincerity.

The method was poor, but the fact that he overcame the curse without succumbing to it was commendable.

"haha! I knew you would say that!"

"As a human being, as soon as I was cursed by the fairy, I grew old and ill in an instant, and there was nothing I could do about it. At that time, a wandering wizard who had been staying in town for a while suggested an experiment."

Frozen-!

The village chief suddenly grabbed the shirt he was wearing with both hands and tore it.

It's great for directing, but I widened my eyes, thinking that the clothes were too expensive.

"play… ?"

In the center of the village chief's chest with the shirt off, the face of a hyena-like gnoll was attached to it in the shape of being buried in skin.

"I am playing."

"ha?"

Thanks to your protection, I don't budge at all, but this time I couldn't help but be surprised.

What the hell is that hybrid?

The village chief who showed me his bizarre chest exclaimed.

"Isn't that really cool?! The union of two races with a grudge against the fairy! My vengeance with human wisdom and gnoll flesh is not far off!"

"Alone?"

Wouldn't two be better than one?

"Enough! My black magic, which has absorbed the lives of countless fairies, is the strongest! Hunting fairies with fairy power! Don't you think it's the best revenge?!"

"Am I not a fairy?"

"Don't worry about the little things."

The mayor put a bloody hand on my shoulder and smiled softly.

"Thank you so much, strong comrade."

"What?"

"This is the truth. Thanks to you teaching Asa, I was able to realize my identity. I am the real asshole. A lone gnoll running through the wilderness... "

"that..."

Asa is not a race, right?

"I will never forget you for taking my story seriously. As a token of my gratitude, I will cherish your life." "Killing is the same, isn't it?"

"Of course. Because I am cheap."

I've learned that serious assas are really dangerous.

There was a childish quarrel among the warriors over the issue of Princess Ethena's apprentice, but the situation was quickly settled as excellent wizards to welcome as teachers appeared.

The warrior's master!

There were so many wizards who coveted this honorable title like grains of sand in the Fantasia Continent.

As a result, classes resumed with all the heroes receiving 'magical protection' one by one.

"Magic is the crystallization of dreams and hopes. So if you can't shape the shape in your head, you fail! Concentration and mental strength are very important-"

"Princess!"

"Ask a question."

"Where can I apply the mathematical formula?"

A certain hero asked a question, whose motivation soared as he became able to use magic thanks to his protection.

Princess Ethena tilted her head and asked again.

"Is maths magic?"

"Yeah."

"Are you referring to the study that merchants mainly study?"

"Yeah."

The warrior who asked the question smiled with a smile of conversion.

As expected, the magic of the fantasy world was outdated.

Isn't the principle too clumsy?

Princess Athena thought deeply and came to her own answer.

"Umm… two magic is more powerful than one. But the efficiency drops sharply."

"I was asking about the mathematical formula required for the manifestation of magic. I wanted to simplify it by applying calculus…"

"Isn't there such a thing?"

"Yes?"

The warrior who pretended to be knowledgeable turned into a dumbass.

"Anyone can use magic as long as they have talent. Power is raised through dreams and hopes, and efficiency is raised through repetition and experience."

"You don't need a math formula?!"

"Did you use addition or subtraction while making the fireball?"

"Hey, this is simple magic…"

"It's thanks to having a great teacher who can make fireballs well."

"There is no difficult magic in this world. There is only unfamiliar magic that he is not familiar with."

"I can't…"

In the fantasy world, the warriors who were inflated with expectations that they could become 'simple' archmage were frustrated.

At that time, one of the wizards who took the warriors as disciples intervened.

"Princess Athena. There is a part where you have misunderstood the hero."

"I am?"

"That's right. Mathematical formulas are also included in magic."

"Oh oh!"

"Oh oh!"

At the words of the wizard, the hopes of the warriors flared up again.

Conversely, Princess Ethena blushed in embarrassment.

"Teach me, please."

"Heh heh heh! Since you took the fireball as an example, I will continue to explain this. Angle is very important if you want to shoot the fireball far. You also have to consider the direction and strength of the wind."

" Ah!"

"In addition, you need to be able to adjust the power of magic according to the number and ability of the enemy. Because unnecessary waste of mental energy should be avoided."

"War..."

"You may not know the princess, who learned only by theory in the royal palace, but we have been introducing mathematical formulas from the beginning to increase the efficiency of magic. The clever warrior asked that question. Isn't it?"

"No, that's right!"

It was completely wrong, but the hero didn't have the guts to embarrass his master.

『A certain wind god is looking at the mathematical formula with a scornful look』

『A certain wind god changes the direction of the wind』

『A certain childish chieftain grabs the escaped belly button and giggles』

『Some receptionist cheers for someone who is tired』

"What kind of god… 』

"Princess Athena. Can this old man help me with the class? The practical magic of the battlefield will be a great study for the princess as well."

"Yeah. Please..."

Realizing her mistake, Princess Ethena took a step back with a gloomy expression.

On the contrary, the warrior's masters smiled deeply.

"Practical magic is… "

"A good wizard is..."

"In practice…"

Under the guidance of great teachers, the warriors learned magic at a very fast rate!

『A certain body of law looks at the younger students with joy』

"A certain impatient demon peeks at his underwear."

『A certain law body cries and chases you』

Break up! bang! Glitter...!

A typhoon accompanied by thunder and lightning seemed to hit the entire Fantasia Continent today.

Finally, the fateful moment has come!

woo woo-

I stood on a gallows-like blood magic camp.

After completing the magic circle's spell, the village chief told me about the demands he made to the male fairy.

"Declare that you will hand over your life to me."

"Isn't the consent of the sacrifice important in black magic?"

"The body can be physically restrained, but it is not possessed. ruler! A quick declaration... "

"Before that, I have a request."

"Hmm… what?"

The mayor had a very uncomfortable expression on his face, but he did not go mad because of the good feelings he had accumulated.

"I want to see Mass one more time before I die gloriously."

"mass? A mercenary with a large crossbow?"

"Yes, you know me."

"Why are you looking for her?"

"Because we are lovers."

"Non! I am the mayor Everything that happens in this town is in the palm of my hand. Did you know that I didn't know that Misa's lover was Cole? Please don't use my favor to do stupid things."

I admired it a little.

I thought you were crazy, but you were doing your job as the head of the village, right?

But that made the conversation a bit easier.

"Cole is my ex-boyfriend. He has recently changed."

"… Is it you now?"

"Yeah."

"Evidence?"

"Smell my body. It's a game with a developed sense of smell, right?"

The village chief began to sniff with the face of the gnoll on his chest.

"… no doubt This is the body smell of the Mass I remember. If you're not a lover, there's no way your whole body can vibrate."

"right."

It's the clothes she was wearing, so there's no choice but to vibrate.

The embarrassed village chief coughed in vain.

"Uh-huh! I'm really sorry for doubting you."

"Then Mass..."

"I'm sorry for that request. If Massa goes missing, Gary and Cole will suspect it. Then things get too complicated."

"Yeah..."

The village chief was thinking of holding Mass as an excuse for the meeting.

Really great.

"Instead, tell me about another wish. I will listen to you no matter what."

wish!

I waited for this to be said.

It is for this reason that he appealed to his emotions while listening to the Mass, which would have become the poop of Gnoll by now.

My wish is...

"If I do not die and survive, release me freely. Until we meet again."

"A life that has lost its life cannot survive."

"Nevertheless. Other than that, I have no other wishes."

"Hmm… I promise."

"Then I declare."

"The deal has been made!"

Paah-!

A brighter light poured from the magic circle than when the male fairy was sacrificed.

Immediately thereafter,

"Ahh?!"

The pain was more than I could have imagined.

village chief bastard! You said it wouldn't hurt?!

It hurt so much that I wanted to die.

"Go well. Tell Misa that you've gone far."

"… That would be hard. Because Mass left first."

"What is that- gagging?!"

Tight-!

With all my strength, my fists pierced the defenseless village chief's face.
