Abandoned Retired Warrior Decides to Return to Farming

chapter 11



I looked at the frozen Serin and pondered how to do this.

I have no intention of actually putting what I just said into action. I was just terrified that she wouldn’t do anything stupid.

Then you have to think of another way…

But is it really possible to work while crawling?

. . . it’s probably overkill No, the villagers might faint if they were sent to the village like that before.

I’ve seen countless corpses with limbs cut off or burned, and I have a deep resentment towards Serin, so I’m okay with it, but if people who don’t tolerate such things see it, there won’t be anything disgusting and bizarre.

In the first place, she still has the aftereffects of her ankles and she is in a devastating state, but if she cuts off one more thing, Serin’s mind will be unconditionally destroyed.

But I don’t know when I’m going to argue with the saint again or do something useless, so I can’t let that happen.

When I was contemplating whether I should put a dog leash around her neck, Aerith cautiously raised her hand and opened her mouth.

“Hey, Kael. I’m fine, so please forgive Serin-sama.”

“…is that?”

When I pointed my finger at that, the saint smiled bitterly.

“We really just talked. There was nothing to worry about, so you don’t have to worry too much.”

“What are you talking about with him?”

“yes? oh Well, that’s… Me, the weather is nice. same······.”

“·················ogue.”

“Ah, it’s a woman’s secret anyway.”

How can such a poor improvisation? Lady. Was there no one to talk to than I thought?

Seeing that I was pitiful, the saint quickly covered the topic with her blushing face.

Well, the moment the saint forgave me anyway, the justification for what I was going to do with Serin disappeared at the same time.

Of course, you’ll have to calculate for yourself to come all the way here after cleaning the bathroom, but you can do that later after she’s gone.

Serin, who had been watching the situation, was relieved at that time, but slowly looked into my eyes.

“yes. Okay. By the way, is that a lunch box?”

“Oh, that’s because I accidentally dropped it… I’ll pack it again later.”

“no. You feel uncomfortable, but you don’t have to do it every day.”

“It’s what I like to do. And since I’m just packing side dishes, I don’t have anything to do with it, so please don’t feel burdened and accept it.”

I’ll see you later, then, after the saint said and greeted me, I walked towards the cathedral.

I looked down at Serin next to me, looking at her back as she moved away.

“Do you want to do that to someone like that?”

“.··················。

Serena bit her lip and avoided my eyes.

He was like a child who didn’t want to admit his mistakes in front of his parents.

I have something I want to say, but I don’t think I’m going to do it for nothing. I’m quick on this one.

In fact, I can only guess why Serin is doing this to the saint.

There must have been some who resented him and needed someone to take responsibility for this, but there must have been envy and jealousy towards her who dared to argue with the saint.

Even though the saint in front of her had lost her arm, she was still holy and clean without a single speck. Even when she came to such a rural area and became a fugitive, she still did not lose her dignity as a saint.

On the other hand, how are you now? As a warrior and a princess, it was Serin who was admired and loved by everyone.

Nobles would follow wherever they went, and even men who tried to show themselves well would have lined up on the continent.

However, seeing himself in the mirror this morning would not have been as good as wandering around in a slum.

The dress she had been proud of her whole life was full of filth, and her body smelled like sweat, even if she was next to her.

It was not enough that the ankle was cut once, and I was in a situation where I had to live with a lame in the future, so my mental health was likely to be broken.

Even under such circumstances, there was no one in this town who could sympathize and embrace her. Rather, they have been subjected to unimaginable treatment and discrimination over the past few days.

The neglect and persecution of the villagers. It made her shoulders sag and her eyes squinted.

There was no pride, no honor, and no achievements he had built up in the past.

Thanks to this, she had no choice but to become more exhausted as the day passed, and she was so mentally concentrated that she showed the pathetic and shameful appearance she had before.

If those who know her see this now, they may be quite shocked.

To be honest, sometimes when I look at it, I think that it might be a bit too much even if I think about it.

But when I think of it as a price to pay for taking away my 20 years and making me feel unfair for the past 5 years, that feeling disappeared like a mirage.

He even tried to amputate my two legs a while ago.

At least I’ll have to make him pay the price for it until I feel better as a victim.

I gently stroked Serene’s hair back.

“Hey, can you stop touching my hair?”

“What? I can’t hear you.”

“······no. nothing.”

She sighed with a sullen look on her face.

Then I tried to walk to the bathroom back to work.

Yes, it’s good to see you crawling on your own. Now, with just a little bit more, it would be a good idea to call it a public good in this town.

But before-

“Hey. Why, why?”

“Aren’t you going to clean up something before you go? Serene.”

“Wow, what are you talking about? Forgive me!”

“ah. right. But in order to be forgiven, you have to do something.”

“······yes?”

When I grabbed the nape of her neck and said, she tilted her head as if she really didn’t know.

Is there something wrong with this as a person?

No matter how royal family and other people bend over and live their life in their own way, it seems that they don’t even have the least common sense.

In the end, I snapped my finger on her forehead and explained.

just-

“Ouch.”

“Apologize yumma. Aren’t you supposed to apologize first before you can be forgiven? Anyway, the order is already wrong, so let’s just skip it somewhere.”

Who in the world apologizes after being forgiven? Even Serin didn’t seem to have any idea, let alone an apology.

“Ugh…”

She rubbed her forehead and made a sound of pain.

Then he hesitated for a moment, and then spoke with difficulty.

“Beauty, beauty, beauty….”

“Hey you crazy bastard. Don’t do it to me, but to the saint.”

“Huh?”

When I pointed my finger, she turned her head in that direction.

There, I could see the back of the saint who had already gone so far away.

“It would be better to go now at that time. To catch up quickly.”

“That, but…”

She pats her fingers and hesitates.

Then he looked up at me like he was embarrassed.

“You are too far away. Can we meet next time and apologize?”

It may be a bit difficult to catch that distance with those feet.

But if you say sorry next time we meet, why are there police and laws?

If there is sincerity in an apology, isn’t it the way to forgive and reconcile?

So, I recommend taking even one step at a time when you stare blankly like that.

“If it were me, I would have already gone by the time I noticed. Or should I clear all the toilets in the village today?”

“Go, I’ll go. I will go! I’ll go and apologize, so please don’t do such a dirty thing…”

“You look much dirtier in my eyes.”

“·················ogue.”

At my words, she put on a hurt expression.

Sometimes it looks like this bitch forgot what she did to me?

I can’t. Still, I tried to move on in moderation considering the old friendship, but I have to make people realize their position in this village in earnest.

“hey. And write it to me in the future.”

“Everyone, will you?”

“Write respect. Just like the children under you served you. Did you understand?”

“My, me? why me······.”

“Why am I half-talking? Or, at home tonight, I’ll have to tell you why you use honorifics one by one.”

Her body stiffened as she heard my words.

Then he shook his head violently from side to side and said urgently.

“Oh, no. I’ll do it. you can do it I won’t do that in the future, ha, I will…”

After saying that, Serin started walking limp with a face that looked like she was about to cry.

Her sweat dripped to the floor and the sound of her breathing could be heard all the way up to here.

It sure looks very uncomfortable to run. Then we should focus on that.

I looked at Serin’s ankle with a solid line and remembered the time when she treated me.

“By the way, seeing that her ankle was also possible, wouldn’t the saint be able to heal if she brought her arm?”

But now the saint in front of me was still one-armed.

She lost her arm during the attack, and even the leader of the party was none other than the original protagonist, Law.

If only one party member, or Rowe, had brought her arm, wouldn’t she have been able to fix it too?

I even thought about it, and laughed out of absurdity.

“under. these guys. Are they really funny?”

but. If they were like that, they wouldn’t have framed her in the first place.

I checked Serine crawling and apologizing, and then came up with a schedule for her.
