Chapter 600
Entire guessed that the feelings he felt and Cheryl’s now might not be exactly the same, but they would be roughly similar.
At first, she moved only with the pride of acting for the will of the World Tree, but after feeling love, she wanted to stand by Siegfried’s side, looking at the same place, and protecting his back.
However, the gap with the rapidly growing Siegfried only widened. As a result, there were times when I felt impatient, thinking that even chasing after him would be difficult, but fortunately, Entire’s concerns were resolved amicably by talking with the party members.
“It’s better not to use the hero as a reference point. The growth of a hero is explosive, and when that time comes, no mortal, even a genius, can catch up.”
Through the knowledge that the imperial family and the church possessed that he had just spoken about.
However, Entire’s sudden advice, not knowing the inside story, made Cheryl think a lot.
It was because I couldn’t decide whether I should take this as wise advice from the Elves to the Humans, as a proverb made as a member of the warrior’s party who spent a long time with the hero, or if I should just accept it as empty words.
“Why do you think so?”
After a short thought, what she eventually chose was a careful questioning. Entire felt a strange sense of identity, feeling that Cheryl’s question was no different from what she had asked.
“Have you experienced it yourself or heard it?”
Many people dismiss the hero as a proud being from birth.
Even if it is not, it is considered that it has been given something new and overwhelming under the omnipotent power of the power of God. So I think it’s natural for them to be strong, to defeat evil, and to save the world. To those who live a normal life, they are farther than the nobility, so it is quite possible.
However, the positions of the church and the imperial family, which supported and watched the warriors for a long time and left records, are completely different. They wrote that, just as nothing comes for free in this world, the might of a warrior comes with a corresponding price.
“If you stay by his side, you keep getting your eyes on his ordinary and everyday actions, and there is a difference that you often forget as you accumulate memories. For me, that was what I just said.”
No one knows how and in what form. Even the warriors who are involved in it probably don’t know it properly. However, what is clear is that the power they possess is nothing but limitless potential, and even that potential is no different from what they obtained by mortgaging their past or future.
No hero is complete without hardship and adversity. That’s why they can’t defeat the existence of the opposite point or save the world from crisis at the same time as they are marked as heroes.
Some say it is too harsh for mortals all over the world who suffer for the dozens of years consumed for this, but from the point of view of elves, who can live for a very long time, dramatic changes can only be achieved in that amount of time. Being there is already a miracle.
The gods know all too well that the absolute power granted in a short period of time and the resultant results are deadly poison to mortals and never beneficial.
“It is often said that a wall is visible before reaching a certain level, right? It is said that every hardship and adversity that warriors go through is such a wall.”
When you overcome the threats that stand in your way, you become stronger.
But that couldn’t be easier said than done. It’s not something you face once or twice in your life, but it’s hard to endure even with a fair amount of mental strength to face such a test every moment until you complete your mission.
“The members of the warrior’s party do not exist to be equal to such a hero, but rather to help the hero from behind so that he does not fall in the process of crossing the wall. other factors.”
Instead of standing next to you, stand one step behind you. Rather than intervening in the warrior’s fight, he prioritizes eliminating elements that interfere with the warrior’s fight. Usually, it helps the warrior to do his best.
The warrior walks along the thorny path, and endures it together by his side.
A system built by those who were protected to help the warrior, who had to endure everything alone in the past, not collapse and complete his mission intactly. That is the essence of the warrior party.
“Of course, a certain level of skill is required. It may sound like a different story, but do you know how the elves who join the World Tree to help the hero are recruited through the process?”
“…No, I haven’t heard anything.”
Feeling strange that Siegfried, who would have been honest about something he had normally hidden for some reason, kept trying to avoid answering with excuses and sophistry about the strangely reversed brother-in-law relationship, Entyre offered advice for humans in a similar situation to him. went on
“Elves believe that there is a certain era in the world. And they believe that the children living in that era must overcome the hardships and adversity of that era. Even though they have lived hundreds or thousands of years and learned skills that are close to divine, they are interested in the crisis of the world. This is the biggest reason why the vast majority of people live in seclusion as if they don’t exist. I really want to help but feel like I’m forced to put up with it for the balance of the world?”
Leaving them behind, those who can be said to be the best of the time gather at the World Tree and compete.
The process was so close to real life that other races would hesitate. It’s not about sitting nicely, talking, discussing, and competing to see who can hit the farthest object better, but fighting with all your heart to neutralize the other person.
Entyre passed through the process only with a sword and shield and won, and was elected as an ally of Siegfried, a warrior who was occupied by Ete of Light. Entyre smiled while explaining the process appropriately.
“At the time, I was very proud of myself as a genius because I had gone through that kind of process before coming out into the world. I was full of the same thoughts.”
Of course it didn’t. At first, there was no problem, but as time passed, it became difficult to catch up with Siegfried, and the enemies he faced became stronger.
In addition to enemies, there were many friendly people who handled swords better than he did. Even if it was Cheryl right in front of her eyes. No matter how different the direction of swordsmanship was, Entire saw that Cheryl’s swordsmanship in the basement of the academy was different.
Decades later, Entire may be stronger. After hundreds of years, it will of course be stronger. But the last few years will never be over.
‘Yo, the difference between a hero and a hero is like that. Just as there is a gap between a genius and a genius, the hero itself has a gap between other mortals.’
It wasn’t until after hearing the story Tennea told Entyre, who was frustrated at the time, that she understood. That a warrior is such a being. That’s why it’s a living miracle, and that’s why it can represent God’s will.
“No, it’s a secret I can’t really tell…”
Although right now I’m having a hard time telling a lie in front of people I like so much. Maybe it’s because they didn’t know what to do but stubbornly maintained their attitude, but the pressure from Esselua and Tennessee started to lose their strength.
“So think differently. Wouldn’t it be nice to be the one to fend off the other enemies around him when he catches the dragon instead of slaying the dragon in the same way?”
Sheryl quietly lowered her gaze to Entire’s question as she confirmed that their conversation was coming to an end.
That’s not wrong. Rather, I think it is common sense and correct advice.
But that… would be something that could be done with Ragnis or Asili.
“By the way, what have you two been talking about since before?”
“Ah, it seems that Cheryl had a lot of worries after seeing the dragon that Eldmia-sama had killed last time.
“Because of the dragon you caught…?”
It shouldn’t be. It is not enough to be similar to both.
There was a vague feeling of pressure in Cheryl’s chest that if she gave up now and stepped down, it would be over.
“With that skill, you’ll be able to play an active role… Huh? …Equal? I don’t think you’ll care about that kind of thing, do you? If that’s the case, what would Asili-san be?”
Siegfried, who continues to speak doubtfully, is right, but Asillie is not in a position where she can be with Eldmia only if she is strong in the first place. She…
“Ah!”
At that time, Cheryl, who suddenly jumped up from her seat as if struck by lightning, was stiffened without realizing it due to the shocking realization.
“Cheryl…?”
He wasn’t depressed simply because he couldn’t fight Eldmia on an equal footing.
It was depressing that there was nothing to offer when compared to Ragnis, who was sprinting in every way to be with Eldmia, and Asilie, who had been together for a long time and maintained a relationship.
I’m afraid that my value of not being able to compete with Dalian will end up being just an acquaintance.
I think we will remain as normal friends like that…
“Ah!!”
No matter how ignorant she is of her feelings, she cannot be ignorant as long as her thoughts have reached this far.
Cheryl likes Eldmia.
It wasn’t because he couldn’t catch up with Eldmia, but the fact that he fell behind them made him depressed. From the moment we first met when we were still clumsy with emotions, including all the moments when he just accepted his complaints as complaints, I liked those eyes that always looked straight at him as if he didn’t care.
I always wanted to put myself in those eyes, but it was sad because the reason to do so seemed to disappear.
“Ah, brother… What are you really doing…”
Siegfried, realizing the situation as he watched Cheryl’s face turn so red that it was clearly visible even in the middle of the night due to her pounding heart in line with the belated realization, Siegfried tried to close her eyes without realizing it. I immediately shook my head.
‘Wouldn’t it be possible to avoid being ridiculed as a dragon slayer that didn’t fit the purpose if I got the timing right?’ It was the moment when I thought about it.
If Eldmia knew, it was such a wicked idea that she would have decided to play with it until the day the coffin lid was closed.
A word from the author (Author’s review) Thank you for the unspoken 50 coin support, Mr. Tofu is cute!

Thank you for your big support of 500 Coins, Mr. Labian!
The number of episodes today is 600, did you sponsor in advance? Whatever it is, I will do my best to write something fun to read in the future!
Thank you Mirashi for your 50 Coin Sponsorship!
Coins obtained from the comment event were donated to celebrate episode 600! thank you!
In fact, since the writer has not been physically active these days, it was a day when I felt dizzy as soon as I got out of bed.
It was the result of living a quiet life for about a week, to the extent that the symptoms of motion sickness, like getting on a bus after a long time after not riding the bus, disappeared from everyday life.
I endured it for a while, but it was so serious that I wondered if I should take a second break!
I found out that today is episode 600.
It makes no sense to take a break on a day like this. It seems that it is written because it is used somehow as evil. It is so sad that there is no stockpile.
Apart from that, I am always grateful to the readers who continue to read the writing of the writer.
We wish you well in the future.
