I Was Kicked Out of the Hero Party and the Elves I Raised Are Obsessed With Me

105 . Hero (4)

Alex looked around him in bewilderment. Helga’s body, which was supposed to be there, was nowhere to be seen, and only her bloodstains, evidence of her presence, were all around her. Fantasy? Not. Even now, the feeling of cutting people remains vivid in Alex’s hand. The sensation of cutting through his muscles and skin, slicing through resisting blood and dismembering his body was not an easy thing to forget.

“Where are you looking like that?”

A voice rang out from the sky, adding to Alex’s confusion as she looked around to find Helga’s body. Why is Helga’s missing voice heard from above? Alex swallowed. He was afraid to look up. I was proud in front of the world tree that there is nothing scary under the sky, but what is this feeling I feel now?

“What… Could it be that you were scared?”

Even with Helga’s provocation, Alex didn’t even move. Only the thick veins in his neck showed his emotions. It was the first time I had stayed silent after hearing such an insult.

The sound of shaking leaves, the sound of trees reeling, and the sound of something moving rapidly between them all made me imagine the fear of the unknown. Is this the sound a mere human can make? Alex’s fear swelled in his heart until it came close to devouring him.

“Don’t be ridiculous… Who do you think I am!”

Alex finally let go of his fear and looked up to hear Helga’s voice.

And that turned out to be the worst number. Courage does not always provide the right path. Sometimes that choice leads people to despair.

Facing Helga, Alex froze on the spot and tried to drop the bow he was holding onto the floor, putting on a devastated expression.

Is that Helga? Is it the same existence as the woman he just cut with his sword?

The moment the menacingly shining eyes glared at him, Alex lost all his fighting spirit and the only thought that came to mind was that he had to run away.

His body moved at the same time as he thought. He screamed unsightly and tried to get out of the woods, but Helga wouldn’t let him.

“Don’t miss it.”

As soon as he finished speaking, red thorns rose from Alex’s feet and pierced his lower body.

It was only then that the shivering Alex faced Helga properly. He couldn’t avoid it now, even if he wanted to avoid it.

Very little of Helga’s face remains.

The space connecting trees and trees and sky and land was filled with only red spider webs, and he was not so stupid as to not know that the spider webs were human blood and organs.

Yes, Helga, from the moment her body was separated, she filled this area with ‘herself’.

The spider’s web, which was full of blood everywhere, couldn’t even be described as grotesque. In the meantime, the part that was Helga, seen occasionally, felt indescribable horror every time Alex met her eyes.

No human form was left. Even Helga herself said in a self-deprecating voice mixed with laughter, as if she knew that fact.

“I can’t even call myself a person at this rate.”

From the moment they were chosen by evil spirits and resurrected on this earth, they possessed abilities beyond the human category, but their shells remained human to the last. That’s why I was able to walk around the city without any burden, and wouldn’t I be able to live a proper life away from them? I even had the illusion that it was for a while.

“I don’t feel too bad. I’ve never cared about my appearance in the first place.”

Alex groaned at the sight of Helga slowly approaching him.

“Monster, monster!”

“Besides… Do you feel like you won’t lose now?”

Helga’s left eye looked at Olivia for a second, and she nodded approvingly.

The forest begins to twist as if wings are spreading. Surim, full of death, rose to the sky before he knew it, and the red thread that woven him was ready to slay the enemy right in front of him.

Death surged through the air, and Alex was tinged with fear like a young beast before a tiger. How do you beat something like that? Death is already right in front of you. I didn’t even have time to think of a kaleidoscope.

“I don’t want it to end this brutally, but my employer wants it.”

Sensing her doom, Alex tried to get out of the situation, but Helga refused to allow her any chance. Before I knew it, blood vessels extending like vines from the ground wrapped around Alex’s body. Alex struggled and tried to shake off his veins, but the more he tried, the more he was dragged to the floor with the veins constricting his body more and more. To Alex, who had completely disappeared into the hollow ground like a coffin, Helga threw out the last words that couldn’t be heard.

“I envy you being able to use this vast land as a tomb.”

At the same time, nature began to fall like a meteorite. There was no way that a mere individual could stand against nature and death with his bare body. One, two, three In the face of death that began to fall, Alex returned to the bosom of nature without a chance to spit out his agony.

Ain looked at the horrendous scene in silence for a while and then asked Olivia. It was she who had spent the most time with her Helga, so she must have known the whole story.

“What did you do to Helga?”

Olivia didn’t even think about it, she replied immediately. She looked like a child wanting her praise.

“I just mixed it up with Elia’s golem. Do you remember Dad too? Those golems made of flesh and blood. Helga has become something of a leader to them. She is the commander of the corps who will take the lead in destroying humans in the future, so wouldn’t it be useful only at this level?”

While listening to Olivia’s explanation, Helga, who dealt with her Alex without leaving a trace of her, was back to her original form before she knew it.

Well, if that figure continued, even a demi-human would have lost quite a bit of affection.

Helga patted Alex’s disfigured corpse, pressed to her floor, with her foot and said in a dull tone.

“These guys are the heroes of our time… Are you losing steam a little?”

Sure… If this was the number of hoards prepared by humans, it was much more trivial than I thought.

However, the title of hero was a word that existed only for one person in this place.

Gilbert was still staring this way with his arms crossed. Since Lilia changed this area, she hasn’t moved much, so she didn’t have to pay attention to her. She said that if she did anything suspicious, she’d be deterred enough by Noah or Rihanna.

Ain took a step forward and asked Gilbert.

“You are the only one left. Are you ready to talk properly now?”

Gilbert slightly opened his closed eyes and nodded. Knowing that the action wasn’t out of fear, Ain was able to notice at once that he wasn’t the culprit.

At the same time, the two people trapped in the barrier had quite different aspects.

Unlike the two people who were victorious outside of her, Cassandra was struggling with Luna’s magic beyond her own expectations. The space made up of barriers was in a state of chaos, as if a hero from a myth and a demon king were fighting. There were cracks here and there, and the cracked ground, like an earthquake, clearly showed how dangerous it was for two people’s magical powers to collide.

Luna seemed to think that victory or defeat had already been decided.

“What? Is it over already?”

Cassandra spat out the blood in her mouth, then responded in a tempered voice.

“… Dog sound.”

After that day, she would never admit her defeat to herself, she promised. She was not a transcendent being called God, and she would rather die than admit defeat to a mere witch.

But she couldn’t see any possibility. She knew from the beginning that she was a stronger enemy than she thought, but she hadn’t even imagined that the gap would be this large. Luna said she was at her mercy as she approached Cassandra ㅣ.

“I am saying this because of your potential. Why don’t you quit everything right now and learn from me properly? Maybe the guys outside are over soon too?”

It’s over? Those guys?

Cassandra let out a laugh at her absurdity. Even though this woman was so used and abandoned by humans, did she still have a field of flowers blooming on her head? Cassandra was finally able to grasp the identity of her sense of incongruity that she had felt from the moment she saw Luna. In the first place, it is fundamentally different from this woman. There was no way they could understand each other, a sense of difference caused by the completely different way of thinking.

Cassandra opened her mouth, using her impenetrable magic to keep Luna from approaching her.

“Sorry, but I have a much stronger pup as my mentor.”

“… Okay? It’s a pity.”

Luna looked like she was genuinely sorry.

That expression was not from regret that he had lost a useful disciple, but from sadness that he had to end a life with his own hands.

When Luna snapped her fingers, a cheerful fit! The surroundings shudder with the sound.

With one gesture from the Archwitch, Cassandra’s space begins to change from the very beginning.

The space made up of Cassandra’s magic was moving according to Luna’s will.

Luna added her words as if explaining to Cassandra, who glared at herself without saying anything.

“I devised all the magic you use. Transformation is easy if you know the principle.”

“I know that.”

It is impossible to attack that witch with the magic that exists in this world.

That said, Cassandra’s skills weren’t good enough to go into a hand-to-hand combat.

But isn’t she to her?

The number of tricks to overcome this situation.

Cassandra, who placed her hands on the floor and opened the ceremony in an instant, smiled meanly.

“I didn’t want to write it because it was still unfinished.”

“… What?”

The moment Luna took a step in front of her, she drew a huge line diagonally, starting at her collarbone. Running straight back with her wounds, Luna grasped the situation. Her previous blow was a simple stab wound. However, if she had even magical powers, she would surely have suffered damage.

She started to think a lot from the moment she suffered damage. She thought of every possibility she could think of.

Necromancer? No, it’s not like necromancy. A force that would distort space. She thought for a long time, but Luna realized it belatedly. The fact that this place Cassandra dragged herself to was only for the one man in front of her eyes.

Staggering from her seat, Cassandra pointed her finger at Luna and commanded the man in front of her.

“Now it’s your turn to work for me. Right?”

“… Leon.”
