There Was a Porter Who Would One Day Be Called a Prophet

17 – Witch Hunt -1

“I’m not a witch..Please listen to me..Please..!”

“You can tell by lighting a fire.”

“Mr. Charles.. How could you do this to me.. You shouldn’t be doing this.. Please let me go..!”

“Shut up! The witch who murdered her husband!”

The villagers did not blink an eye even when the woman shed tears and begged.

‘Obviously, after the cemetery, I went to wipe out the witches as my last mission in the east.’

The map also shows Strega as a village, so this time I’m sure.

“Hero. Shouldn’t we step in?”

“..I guess that’s how it should be.”

I stopped the warrior party, which looked like it would jump out at any moment.

“Let’s watch.”

“What are you doing now!

At this rate, that woman…”

“Die witch!”

When the torch left her hand and touched the firewood, the woman was engulfed in flames in an instant.

“Quaaah!”

“I can’t believe it…”

Party members with devastated expressions.

Except me and Polaris.

“Don’t worry, sister.”

The time when the rest of the party couldn’t understand what Polaris was saying

“These…The wormy things…!”

Surprisingly, the woman was swearing and cursing at people while the flames were burning her body.

Surprisingly, the arrest rate in this town is quite good.

Usually, when you say witch hunt, you think of being framed and dying unjustly.

I remember that the villagers were serious about killing the witch, so there were no innocent victims in the process.

Instead, the seeds of the witches are drying up because they turn on the light in their eyes to find them.

Whether or not the witch casts a curse, the force of an expert was felt as she performed Haeju in real time with a priest accompanying her.

“You can see the qualities of a Heretic Questioner from the residents..”

Look, even a saint admits it

While the burning process continued until it turned to ashes, a person noticed us and stepped forward.

“Who are you?”

“We are a party of warriors who have come to solve the problems of the village.”

“Ah! I heard the news.

My name is Marco, the acting village chief.

As you can see, witches are a nuisance in our village… Hm?”

The man who introduced himself as Marco began to narrow his forehead.

“Are you…A man?”

A warrior who hardens as if he has been stabbed to the core.

“That…What the hell is that…”

“Ah, I’m not talking about the hero, I’m talking about the person who has an unusual appearance behind me.”

As the hero turned to me, I also looked at Reina.

“..Why are you looking at me..?”

From my point of view, your ears are the most unique.

No, but why is that warrior looking at me?

“The one with dark hair over there.

You.”

“Me..?”

A man who finally gets his doubts when he hears my voice.

“I’m sorry. Because of her unusual face and hair color that I’ve never seen before, I stopped suspecting she might be a witch.”

‘If it wasn’t attached, would you have thought of interrogating it?’

It’s really fortunate that the goddess prefers male characters.

“Now, with ghouls appearing around the village and witches being caught, the situation is very difficult.”

When I heard the word ghoul, I got goosebumps as I remembered the trauma of falling into a swamp.

I don’t think I can sleep alone tonight

“Don’t worry, we’ll stay and investigate for a while.”

As if the hero’s answer was reassuring, the worry disappeared from Marco’s face a little.

“Thank you very much.

If there is anything we can help with, please call us anytime.”

When Marco left, the hero let out a long sigh.

“Whew..”

“Do you have any worries, warrior?

Your complexion has deteriorated.”

“Ah.. No, I just feel a little sick from running around since morning..”

“It’s because of the secretly running away from early in the morning.”

Wasn’t that the case with the fish?

Spit on the road b*tch

“Can I have a look?”

A hero who is perplexed when Polaris sends a worried look.

“..It’s okay, it’ll get better if you rest a little..”

He said he was fine, but what should he do?

So we headed inward in search of an inn in the village, and soon we found a decent place.

-Dancing Rabbit-

This is a very promising business name.

Does that mean someone called Rabbit is dancing at the inn?

I want to check it quickly, the moment I made fun of my steps

“Ouch!”

From nob le mt l dot com

Just before I entered the inn, a girl jumped out from around the corner and bumped into my leg, causing her to fall.

“Are you hurt anywhere? Are you okay?”

A child staring at me on the spot with her eyes wide open as if surprised.

It didn’t take long for her eyes to turn wide.

“Ugh..”

Hey, don’t cry for a second

I’m weak at crying

In front of a crying child, a grown man uses his gestures to soothe him.

“Julia!”

A woman who appeared to be the child’s guardian came running and held her child in her arms.

“It’s okay, sister, I’m here. Shall we stop?”

In the image of a woman comforting her child, the teacher seemed to overlap for a moment.

“…”

“I’m sorry. Are you hurt anywhere?”

“..No. It’s okay.”

The woman who gave me her apology disappeared into her alley with her child

I was staring at the place she left as if bewitched.

“..Porter, do you like that?”

“No. It just reminded me of the old days…”

“Old thoughts..? Did you ever have a lover..?”

I hope so too.

If he came back after 5 years, he would have used magic.

I ignored Thalia’s nonsense and entered the inn.

“Welcome to the dancing rabbit!

How many people are there in total?”

We were greeted by a mature woman with a violent heart and an attractive dot on the tip of her lips.

Yes, the hostess of the inn should be at that level.

I have high expectations for Mr. Rabbit

While my imagination grew along with it, the hero took orders from his side.

“There are two males and three females.”

“Just in case, there are only two rooms available, one for three and one for two. Would you like to stay here?”

The hero’s face distorted after hearing the mistress’ words.

“Are you okay, hero? Did you feel worse?”

“..I’m fine.

Please take me to that room..”

“Yes, get the key here.

This is the end room facing each other after going up to the second floor.”

“..Then let’s meet at dinner time

Everyone must have been tired, so let’s break up here for today.”

“See you later~”

“See you at dinner.”

“See you later.”

When they entered the room across from us, we opened the door and entered.

“Oh.”

It was a fairly spacious and comfortable room.

I thought there would be only one large bed because it was a double room, but it is actually a room with two.

After unpacking, we had quite a bit of time until dinner, so we decided to wash up and come back.

Cleanliness is essential for holding a memorial service.

“Hero, can I wash first?”

“Ugh…Huh?! Ah…Yes…Wash first.

I’ll go wash up later.”

It’s only for a moment, but when I see him flustered, his playfulness kicks in.

“Hero. Shall we just wash up and come back, just the two of us?

I don’t really care about that.”

“Yes..Four?! Two..Two..! No, no!

I’m the kind of person who cares so much about things like that…!”

Waiting hurriedly

“Ah…That’s unfortunate. I wanted to push my back with the hero, but… I can’t help it. What?”

“Go..As de, etc?!”

And reaction Hyejane

“Then I’ll wash up and come back.”

Right before sinking, I left the hero behind and came down the stairs.

I went to the counter and asked if I could use the bathroom.

“Yes. Then you can use it for 30 minutes.”

The proprietress’ kind words sounded as if she were to come by then.

Wait, Mr. Rabbit

I’ll wash up soon

—

The image of herself washing with the porter kept popping up in her mind.

Fortunately or unfortunately, the imaginary porter’s lower body was embodied as steam because there was no information to recall.

“You must be crazy. What are you thinking?”

Puck puck puck

It was very insignificant to see him hitting a stupid pillow.

To the extent that no one would think she was a hero if someone saw her struggling like an adolescent girl with her face buried in a pillow.

The good news is that it is a double room, so there are two beds.

You don’t have to sleep right next to you like in a tent.

‘Of course, it’s the same as having one roof, but…’

At that time, she was thinking that she was comfortable with herself today.

‘…Come to think of it, I was staring at a certain woman in front of the inn…’

Seeing that, I remembered Talia’s words.

-..Porter, do you like that?

“…”

Again.

The feeling I felt when I met a woman named Sonia in Camille Village.

A feeling of soggy emotions welling up in her heart.

-Old thoughts..? Did she even have a lover…?

Shaking her head vigorously, she shook off her dark emotions.

‘Let’s think positively.

He saves lives from ghouls, and the porter doesn’t show any signs of running away, as if he knows that, and the distance seems to have narrowed a lot lately.

Again…’

Puck puck puck

It doesn’t seem normal these days.

Once you become conscious of it, it comes to mind endlessly like this.

“Ehh..”

I lowered my head and looked at my body.

The sturdy breastplate that had saved his life dozens of times caught his eye.

Watching that made me think more and more.

Because I am a warrior.

It’s been like that since 10 years ago.

I couldn’t envy other people’s lives.

Because it is the warrior who protects their lives.

Still

Sometimes I wanted to lean on someone.

Maybe that’s why

Why do you keep acting like this in front of the porter?

I got out of bed and opened the window.

I feel a little better when the cool air touches my face.

Reach behind your back and take off the breastplate.

His chest was slightly swollen for a man.

“Whoa…”

As he was about to remove the bandage that was pressing on his chest, he stopped his hand, thinking that a porter might come in.

‘What am I going to do with my life after defeating the Demon King?’

The years I have lived as a warrior have grown longer than the days I have lived as Durandal.

I couldn’t imagine myself not being a warrior anymore.

Wouldn’t the value of one’s existence disappear after defeating the demon king?

If I ask the porter, will he give me an answer?

How will I live in the future?

‘Should I…Continue to live like this…’

I do not hide myself like others do.

I can cry when it’s hard..

Can we live a life like having a normal family?

In the meantime, a question suddenly came to my mind.

‘You have to get married to start a family.’

It took an instant for doubt to turn into doubt.

If…If the future me really lived that kind of life…

Haven’t you seen it already?

—

“How was it? Was the water temperature right for you?”

“Sure. It was great.”

“Bathrooms are the pride of our inn. They come from other towns on purpose.”

She is a landlady who proudly sticks her breasts out in front of her as if she is happy.

‘Ouya..’

I felt impatient at that dizzying sight.

“Aren’t you coming to see your sister?”

“..Yes?”

She froze after hearing my answer.

It was a work comment of conversion

Misfire

“Nuh… Noona~ Look at her ho ho ho.”

No

It was a pinpoint

“I didn’t hear that well… Can you say it again?”

I can do it again and again

“Sister.”

“Kyaa~! How can our guest talk so prettily~?”

‘Do you really like listening to your sister?’

Are you the type to be eaten by older people?

Then I can get to the main point.

“Nuna, can you… Show me what a dancing rabbit is?”

The landlady’s eyes widen at my words.

“What…? How do you know that?

I’m not telling anyone about that…”

Bingo

“I’ve been thinking about that ever since I came here.”

“Ai, I’m really sorry… I miss you that much…?”

“Of course. Sister.”

“Hmm~”

Her enchanting gaze passed by like licking my whole body.

“Okay, first.. Take this.”

She put a thick, large carrot in my hand that I don’t know where she got it from.

What is it?

What does this carrot mean?

Is it a metaphor for something I know?

“It should be this much.. I’m sure my stomach is full. Uh-huh.”

Her white fingers sternly stroked his master’s belly.

That glance, that gesture, that tone.

Sure

The carrot I know is right

‘Something messed up.’

“Now…Before anyone sees…Come over here.”

She takes her arm and opens the sliding door that was blocking the counter.

Seniors

Maybe tonight

I think I can become an adult
