A heart to give to others

“I was proud that I was strong, and I was careless that I was safe. At the same time, he deceived the priests by telling lies as if he were eating rice.”

“It’s not like that. Brother… !”

“no. I’m not the guy you think I am.”

Hyeon-joon whispered softly as if he were confessing.

“I fought because of unavoidable circumstances, but I am not a righteous person. It looked good in the temple and even tried to use it. And in Red Forest Village…”

Hyeonjun vomited out the things he had been hiding deep in his heart.

Bahanus quietly listened.

“And now, with the temple on my back, I’m going to head for the innovative group.”

“…….”

“Even on parchment, I honestly wrote everything down.”

“That… to deliver it to Karios-sama’s temple?”

“…Please do so.”

Hyeonjun said that without meeting Bahanus’ eyes. Hyeonjun himself knew that he was acting like an idiot. He needs the strong halo of the temple in order to hold a cause and increase his value. You have to keep your mouth shut and remain as the righteous adventurer Jun to the temple.

But no matter how much I thought about it, I couldn’t keep my mouth shut. Now Hyun-joon doesn’t even know why he’s behaving like this. I tried to use the temple to protect myself and open the way, but now I can’t do that for some reason.

The kindness they show must be towards Jun, an adventurer who is righteous and holds a sword for humanity. This time, he had to wear the mask and use the temple. But somehow it’s just… . I just wanted to do this. Even if it seemed like an idiot, I wanted to face it head on.

“If you ask me to return the armor from Karios’ temple, I will.”

“Brother.”

At the soft voice of Bahanus, Hyeonjun trembled like a child startled by the sound of thunder.

“Thank you for all of this. I will definitely tell you this. but.”

Bahanus raised his hand and gripped Hyeonjun’s shoulder tightly.

“They won’t blame you either. It is the same for me.”

Hyeonjun closed his eyes at the voice of Bahanus.

“How can a man always act upright and upright? We are all just small beings who live in a moment of chalna. Swept away by circumstances, run over by others, how can you define yourself and exist?”

Bahanus’ voice was so warm that Hyeonjun couldn’t bear to raise his head.

“You fought for others despite being thrown into that harsh situation, and there is no lie in that fact. There are people who laugh and rejoice at what you have done and are embraced by loved ones. And he mustered up the courage to tell me everything.”

“Didn’t you say you did it out of necessity?”

“Every priest here knows how much you love children.”

“…….”

“The adventurer brothers who were together in Red Forest Village often came to visit and say hello to the brother. He remembers the way he talked with us. I was able to hear a pleasant story.”

“…….”

“Isn’t the necklace engraved with Karios-sama’s pattern, which you often touch, also received as a gift?”

“…….”

“Not all of them were forced.”

“… … I will continue to use the temple, someone else. only for myself.”

Bahanus smiled softly and said.

“Every human being does that. Only God alone exists and oversees everything. Maybe even God can’t.”

Bahanus uttered words that could easily be interpreted as blasphemy.

Only then did Hyeonjun raise his head and look into Bahanus’ eyes. Those clear eyes contained Hyeon-joon without wavering.

“My only small request is that you do not see others as tools and look at them as people. Brother, don’t be a monster. Humans are lonely beings who cannot live without loving others.”

“I am… . I’m not sure.”

Bahanus grinned cheerfully.

“I don’t even know what to say. Just loving someone else blah blah blah. Well, as someone always says, live happily ever after.”

“hahahaha… . It’s a mess.”

“If it was perfect, it would be a god, would that be a human? We just live like that.”

Hyeonjun giggled and grabbed Bahanus’s hand, which was wrapped around his shoulder.

“Are you forgiving me?”

“What am I going to forgive and what do I do? Brother, you must forgive me for repeating nonsense like this.”

“ha ha ha! Then let’s forgive each other!”

When Hyeonjun laughed loudly, Bahanus also laughed with ease. Hyeon-joon laughed like a child, giggling while suppressing his voice. My chest undulated, rose and fell merrily, then rose merrily again.

“Please say hello to the other brothers and sisters as well.”

“Whoa… . No, the priest, please tell me. Looking at the other priests now, I feel sorry for them, so I don’t think I can go.”

“Um… . Everyone will miss you.”

“I’ll see you next time.”

Bahanus smiled a little mischievously and said.

“Then I’ll have to enjoy this privilege alone.”

Hyunjoon giggled.

“This is originally a very rare opportunity, but I’m giving it specially to the priest.”

The two looked at each other and laughed. Hyeonjun held Bahanus’ hand again and said.

“I will come back next time.”

“yes. Please visit us next time you come to Taxis.”

Hyeonjun turned around and left the temple with a smile on his face. light hearted Laughter comes out all the time.

The cloak swayed gently following Hyeon-jun’s light step, and soon melted into the shadow and disappeared into the dark street.

***

“Curr… .”

“Isn’t this really crazy? I’ll just go to sleep without even knowing that I’m going to get a sore throat.”

Hyeonjun sighed as he saw how much alcohol he had drank and Gunther, who opened the window and came in right next to him, snoring and not waking up. Hyeonjun, who stood there for a moment, put his hand to Gunther’s nose and collected mana.

Pak!

“Keek!”

Gunther screamed and struggled as water streams spewed from his hands into his nose, then jumped to his feet.

“Quea! Wow!”

“Really, how do people make sounds like that?”

“Kuhhe! Coheh! you!”

“Didn’t I tell you to drink in moderation?”

“Kak! You son of a b*tch!”

Dodging Gunther’s fist, Hyeon-jun sprayed the ice-cold stream again.

“Huh! heh! You bastard!”

“Are you out of your mind?”

Drenched in cold water, Gunther floundered, then suddenly stopped and jumped up.

“June! how!”

“I really can’t believe this guy was a mercenary… .”

“Leader!”

Suddenly, the door slammed open and Maxim jumped in swinging his sword.

Hyeonjun grabbed Maxim’s wrist by the chin and threw it at Gunther.

“Ouch!”

“Kuh! Who are you!”

“Gunther, Maxim is much better than the real you. Wouldn’t it be better for Maxim to be the captain?”

“June… ?”

Only then did Maxim realize that the intruder was Hyeon-jun, and lowered his sword. It is because there is firm trust in Hyun-joon. Hyunjoon looked at him and smiled.

“How did the request go?”

“Maxim. really listen to me If you’re the leader, everyone will be happy. Look at the guy you call the captain.”

Maxim looked back at Gunther. Gunther was drenched with water dripping from his nose, and he had not woken up and was lying on the bed after colliding with Maxim.

“Are you really satisfied with him being the captain?”

“You son of a b*tch! Do it in moderation!”

“The captain is my lifesaver. He is a man worth having as captain.”

“Maxim…!”

“Are you really brainwashed with some kind of medicine or hidden magic tool? How can an idiot like you become such a loyalist?

“hehehehe… If you twist it, you’ll make a subordinate too.”

“Yes. I’m here to do that. So, stop worrying about it now. No, Maxim. Tell me a story when that asshole wakes up tomorrow.”

“yes.”

Hyeonjun let out a deep sigh and brushed his now too long, cumbersome hair. Jun, who is fun and pleasant to be with, disappears, and Jun, a cool-headed warrior exuding sharp momentum like a sword, looks at Maxim and says,

“One of the noble families of Taxis and another, perhaps orthodox, joined forces to cut my throat.”

“what…!”

“Now I am a great cause itself, and the nobles want to kill me or get their hands on it.”

“…….”

“I will go to Bentinga, the head of the Renovation Party. I will be waiting for you at the entrance to the first forest on the road to Lucan by noon tomorrow. Come if you want to be with me.”

“You damn bastard! You say it that way!”

Gunther cursed and screamed, but Hyeonjun didn’t even look at him and put his foot on the window sill.

“Tell me when that bastard wakes up. Well, Maxim, if you don’t feel like a spirit, just bury it quietly. Oh, and when it’s time tomorrow, tell the guys you were with at Red Forest Village that you won’t be seeing them for a while.”

“The captain will decide whether to go or not.”

“what? You do what your mother tells you to do.”

“men and horses!”

Gunther rushed at him as he kept raising his heart and ignoring it, but Hyeonjun jumped out the window.

“You son of a b*tch!”

Gunther leaned out the window and raised his fist. There was no worry about Hyeon-joon jumping from the second floor. Because I’m not the kind of person who would get hurt by something like this.

Watching the drunken Gunther scream out the window, Maxim grabbed his throbbing forehead. You’ve been caught up in trouble.

***

Hyeon-jun, who was briskly walking along the path through the forest while watching the sky lighten slightly, noticed a light leaking from inside the forest, stopped for a moment, and then started walking again.

Hyeon-jun said, looking at the wagon and horse that had been pulled that day, and the small lantern sitting blankly in front of the campfire.

“I didn’t go.”

“Where will I go if I fail in my mission?”

Hyunjoon walked silently and sat down next to him. Lahansen is still staring at the bonfire.

“You don’t want to kill me anymore.”

“How much are you going to insult me?”

“insult?”

“You have been merciful to me five times in one night. Aren’t you playing with it while keeping it alive like this, knowing that I can’t defeat you?”

Hyeon-jun silently looked at La Hansen’s gloomy face, then struck him in the back of the head.

“evil!”

“The young man is very upset.”

“What is this!”

When La Hansen jumped up, Hyeonjun patted him on the side and gestured for him to sit down.

La Hansen gritted his teeth and just glared at Hyeon-jun, so Hyeon-jun let out a sigh and said,

“You said you didn’t want to kill children. Sit down quickly, kid.”

“Don’t call me a kid!”

“That tone really makes me want to squeeze it.”

When Hyeon-jun muttered, La Hansen hurriedly withdrew. Hyunjoon sighed again and said.

“The Henen family will soon disappear. Tell me which family you belonged to.”

At those words, La Hansen flinched in response. And soon, he tried to put on a calm expression as if nothing was wrong. This guy really can’t hide anything.

“I have no intention of dying to you. Without my head, you will not be able to return.”

“Didn’t you rather kill me if you knew that?”

“Lahansen, you are still young. You’re only thirteen, aren’t you?”

“Fifteen!”

“Yes, fifteen. sh*t. oh my god it was real You are a kid.”

She’s only a year older than Edelia, so she’s a kid.

“You’re a kid… !”

“Anyway, dying at only fifteen is too soon.”

“Even though I am not a knight, I was prepared to die.”

“It’s not that I don’t have eyes, I saw everything you were trembling about at the time.”

“this person… !”

Looking at the shivering La Hansen, Hyeonjun let out another deep sigh.

“Because I honestly don’t know what to do with you?”

“I will take care of it!”

“Are you going to live forever in the forest like this?”

“…….”

Hyunjoon slapped his forehead. no real solution

“You are young, but you are quite good. If you hone your skills a little more, you might really become a knight.”

It’s not empty words, but Lahansen’s skills were quite good, whether he had talent or learned properly. Although it is a gap caused by Hyeon-jun’s armor blocking it while trying to use magic, La Hansen was the first to hit him in the head during the battle. No matter how unexpectedly there was magic defense armor, Hyun-joon is not an idiot enough to give his head to a guy with no skills.

“I will write a letter of introduction to Turaion. I didn’t tell you your name, and even if I knew the situation, if you truly entrusted yourself to Turaion, I’d gladly accept it. Because it’s that kind of family name.”

“I, I… .”
