The Rebirth of the Hero’s Party’s Archmage Chapter 116

Episode 116

“You’re helping me?”

“A human kid?”

“Us?”

When I saw the beastman warriors whispering suspiciously, I could sense that my turn had finally come.

“I didn’t come here to fight. I didn’t come to insult Grypion. “I’m just here to tell you that the Wall Gate can be opened peacefully.”

Break the wall peacefully… … ?

Just as the prisoners’ eyes were about to widen, someone burst into laughter. It was Opus, a one-eyed white bear.

“I said something, Barlzen, you were really deceived by these kids. “I guess it’s because we only encounter fewer wolves because we’re only in the deep depths.”

“what?”

“Don’t you know? I just used it! Because I want even the wall to be protected! “Do little kids who haven’t even reached adulthood seriously think like that!”

“I, I truly mean—!”

“—Don’t act like a fool! Do you think you don’t know your evil nature? “Every warrior here knows!”

“It’s true!”

“My three sons who believed those words were all killed by humans. “They all fought against the abyss as great warriors.”

“yes?”

“The youngest of them saved the dying wolf and brought it back to the wall, but he killed it by stabbing it in the neck from behind! To make my son his major!”

As soon as he finished speaking, murmurs of approval for Opus’ words were heard from all over.

“My husband died too, from humans… … .”

“My daughter wasn’t even a warrior… … .”

“I had no father when I was born. He died because he was tricked by a wolf… … .”

I was suffocated by the complex and overwhelming reality that seemed to be tightening all around me without any resolution.

how? What should I say in times like this? Against that hatred that has taken root deep in the heart, no, the soul… … .

Let me know, Rista. At a time like this, what should you do in a situation like this?

“… … lane! lane! Why are you quiet! Say something… … !”

Cassena, who sensed that the situation was going strangely, grabbed me and screamed at me, but I couldn’t hear because my ears were deaf as if I was submerged in water.

“… … Be honest. I lied because I wanted to live… … .”

“… … .”

“… … Then, out of consideration for the honor of the Durancus tribe and Alakish’s devotion, I will let you go this once… … .”

Is there really no way? Is there no solution to this hostility that has been building up for hundreds of years?

No, it could be solved, but it might not be enough for a guy like me.

Then, here, it would be better to just go over the wall and find a solution underneath the wall… … It was right then.

“Why?”

A strangely majestic voice came from among the crowd of beast warriors.

The warrior who walked out through the ranks, receiving respectful concessions from all the warriors, was the tallest of the beast warriors Raine had ever seen, and his movements were fierce.

It had the head of a pure white eagle, and the sharp eyes of a bird of prey showed the might of a warrior who had survived through difficult times.

“Grypion?!”

When Opus turned around and shouted in surprise, he suddenly came to his senses.

This person is Grypion?

Warchief Grypion, the warrior of warriors and the chief of chieftains, who gathered all the tribes in this city?

Grypion didn’t even respond to Opus’ shout, but just walked straight out and faced Lane.

“Answer me. You said you came here to help us. “What is the reason?”

“Isn’t it obvious even without looking at it? No need to ask. “It’s probably just a mixture of lies to survive.”

“I am now asking this human boy.”

Grypion interrupted briefly and firmly, and Opus, who had been sarcastic, immediately shut his mouth. Not just Opus, but all warriors.

At the same time, I could feel all eyes on me and Grypion. Heavy and dizzy.

“And you too, Barlzen. Not even Alakish. Now, answer me.”

Let’s calm down and stay calm.

I don’t know the true intention, but it was obvious that Grypion gave the opportunity for conversation. There was no guarantee that the favor would last forever, so what I had to say from now on was the most important.

But how on earth should we talk about it? Nowhere in the world has there been a solution as clear as mathematics.

“So, I heard Enuel’s story from Chief Bethuel… … .”

It would have been possible to list realistic problems.

The seal of the Spider Lord is being released and the power to control the old has now been awakened. So, humans and beastmen must come together again.

If a siege was launched to forcefully break down the wall, everyone would be swallowed up and die by that force.

“I was able to see what kind of heart you, the prisoners, have been fighting on this land all along… … .”

But, why?

I must have been weighing the possibilities with countless rational judgments in my mind, but my mouth was fluttering like this without permission.

Expressing my true feelings, my true feelings, was more difficult than anything else, but how on earth did I do it?

“You lived like that, but the end was, the breakdown of the wall… … Become an enemy of the world… … If everyone remembers me like that… … .”

As I said before, this may have been a rude meddling stemming from a sense of sympathies toward Enuel and the beastmen.

Unexpectedly, I came back like this. But how would I have felt if the warrior party comrades had been recorded as enemies of the world?

My colleagues lived as best they could for the day when they would return, and were recorded as the best and returned to the dust. Even prisoners deserve to enjoy that joy.

“That’s so sad… … .”

Is it shame for speaking the truth, or is it sadness that comes from thinking about the painful waiting lives of the warrior party comrades?

I couldn’t see anyone’s face through my blurry vision, so I lowered my head.

But even with a shaking voice, I had to finish speaking. Because there will never be an opportunity like this again.

“So I just, I just, I thought, I want to help you guys. You may think this is presumptuous, but… … So I did… … .”

A dark silence overwhelmed the area, as if dancing in the Arctic sea breeze.

All the beast warriors couldn’t believe their ears when they heard what the human boy said, and they couldn’t believe their eyes when they saw the dew that twinkled in the boy’s eyes.

The boy’s sincerity, explained briefly but boldly, quietly but clearly melted the frozen heartstrings in their hearts.

“… … .”

“… … .”

“… … .”

Kassena happily folded her arms and shook her head with Fifi, and a soft smile formed on the lips of Alakish, who was looking at Lane with surprised eyes.

‘As expected, it wasn’t because of Karenden’s fragments.’

It’s not because of Black Sheep Lin. That child has the faint scent of the gods. The same as Tercia and Karenden whom I briefly met when I was young.

– Wow, Belle! Are these really your children? How can you be this cute?

At that time, Barlzen approached Lane, hugged her shoulder tightly, and cried out in a crying voice.

“You heard, right? This guy is our Durancus, no, he is a friend of me, Barlzen! “I, Barlzen, will not let anyone insult this guy again!”

There have been quite a few humans who pretentiously listened to the stories of prisoners and then took advantage of them.

There have been countless people who pretended to acknowledge the prisoners but then stabbed them in the back.

However, there has never been a human who shed tears after hearing the stories of the prisoners and truly cared about their honor.

“Laugh, don’t be ridiculous! Do you think I will believe what you humans say? All they have to do is get to the wall! “They’re going to stab us in the back and go inside!”

Opus shouted like that, but his own voice was not as sharp as before, and there were no voices of approval.

“Human boy, I want to know the name your father gave you.”

Grypion raised his hand to silence Opus and then asked: At the mention of his name, Grypion placed his hand on Raine’s head.

“Rain Ludwig, son of Cavan, I, Grypion, son of Ralquen, will trust you.”

All the warriors looked at Grypion with surprised eyes.

It was the same with Lane, I never imagined it would be this easy.

I thought I had to persuade them by presenting a rational and realistic blueprint, but I thought I made a mistake.

“It’s funny. “I have been deceived by humans so much that I can now tell whether they are telling the truth or lies.”

Aren’t you suddenly saying this with a faint, bitter smile?

“Okay, so what do you plan on doing? “What do you want me to do?”

“Please wait just a little while. I’ll go to the Wall and talk to White Lang. “We will open the wall peacefully.”

“Is that really possible?”

“It may be impossible for me, but Miss Kasena here can do it! “He is a direct descendant of Emmitsa Page, so his influence is enormous.”

When I urgently pointed to the casena as if supporting it with both hands, the beastmen looked in that direction and started whispering absentmindedly.

“A direct descendant of Emmitsa?”

“That guy?”

“No, I think I understand. That hair color… … “It appears in old stories as well.”

Kasena seemed a little embarrassed by such a focus of attention, but then cleared her throat with a pretense of dignity and nodded her head vigorously.

“Okay, wait until I get back from the Wall! “Rain and I will resolve everything and come back!”

At that suggestion, the warriors split in half and began to murmur.

Wait, what on earth is going on in this land that is getting colder? Can these kids really open the door?

Grypion’s close associates also had a heated debate about the possibility of this happening, and it was truly a moment that made people swallow dry saliva.

How long did it take until Grypion finally raised his hand to silence the warriors and focused all attention on himself?

“Brothers, shouldn’t we also sincerely repay the sincerity these children have shown us? “I believe it will be honorable for our warriors.”

“… … !”

“Lane Ludwig, and Cassena Page. Allow four days to travel to the wall, and wait for you here for ten days. Until then, we will not march to the wall.”

Kasena and Varlzen looked at each other and smiled brightly with expressions of extreme excitement. My eyes heated up with a heavy, indescribable shiver.

Was it really conveyed?

Did you really know?

What I was trying to say, the sincerity I had in my heart after hearing Enuel’s story… … Maybe that’s why I was bowing deeply to Grypion.

“Thank you thank you. I will never disappoint you.”

If the qualifications of an educator include how to skillfully use carrots and sticks, Lin would probably have excelled as an educator.

Tureina’s magic education consisted only of scolding and scolding without any praise. He only knows how to use a whip.

Lin was also aware of his problem and was having a hard time.

How can you say that you did a good job well? Even if I try to compliment you, I feel embarrassed and I feel like thorns are sticking out of my tongue.

─You’ve only done this much and now you’re saying you’re done?

─Is this what I did a month after learning magic?

─You can’t do this? Would it be enough to teach her passing grandmother for a week?

So at times like that, Lin’s special sarcasm would come out even more than usual. Tureina studied harder despite her tears.

“I was wondering why I was feeling grumpy these days, but was it because of that?”

So (even though I really didn’t feel like it), I asked Lista for a solution to this problem. Because I really didn’t know if it would be good.

“Well, I’ve never had a problem more difficult than this.”

When I responded bluntly, Friede, who was beside me with her legs crossed and exhaling a smoky look, giggled.

“What is difficult? “You’re already doing well.”

“What do you mean, I came here because I couldn’t do it?”

Then, Rista, who was sharpening the blade of the Polar Sacred Sword Shirfang with a whetstone, with her hair pulled up and revealing her long, pure white neck, smiled brightly.

“That’s right, Friede is right.”

“Don’t play around.”

“It’s no joke. “The fact that Lin came to us with that problem shows that he treats people sincerely.”

As I was tilting my head, wondering what the hell was going on, Friede hit the top of Rin’s head with a heavy blow.

“Just carry on like normal! On the contrary, if you suddenly compliment me so much, I’d think you’re possessed by an evil spirit and I’d be scared, right? Wow, it’s scary just thinking about it. “The little boy is going to run away.”

That was definitely true. When Rin nodded in understanding, Friede laughed ahaha.

“You can’t be good at anything from the beginning. “You just have to work hard little by little and slowly.”

Friede always seemed like a psycho, but sometimes he spoke in such a serious and kind manner.

“I will be able to do well someday. “Conveying your true feelings.”

As if agreeing with that, Keyes, who had been standing behind her for some time, placed his hand on Rin’s head and grinned.

“What are these? I never said I wanted to tell you my true feelings! It’s just that it’s hard to teach that little boy… … .”

“I’m shy again so I’m taking it out. Oh my, it’s so cute. Keith, hold on tight to that. “It’s been a while since I had to tickle myself a little.”

“Oh, no! “Keys, let it go!”

The moments of my memories shine more beautifully than at any other time in my life.

And at the end of these memories, there was always an echo of Rista smiling brightly like a flower blooming.

“It’s okay, Lin. Rather, since Rin doesn’t usually reveal her true feelings, she will know right away when Rin tries to convey her true feelings, right?”

“… … okay?”

“Yes, just as we found out that Rin is actually the sweetest kid out there.”
