The protagonist’s sword soared high.

It was also very slow, and his face as he held the sword looked very complicated.

The protagonist’s sword, held high, was filled with auras.

To the point where the sword holding the aura trembled as if it would break at any moment.

But as the sword descended, the contained aura disappeared.

And the sword, whose aura had completely disappeared, lost its purpose and fell into the ground.

“Whoa… .”

The sight of him taking deep breaths, as if trying to calm his chest, made him feel strange.

It was different from the main character I knew.

The main character I know is someone who wields a sword first rather than solve it through conversation.

But stop swinging the sword halfway through?

It was as funny as a passing goblin lying flat next to an ogre.

“I thought briefly. apologize.”

It wasn’t an apologetic attitude at all, but that alone shocked me enough.

What am I watching?

The main character who goes out with fists instead of words is now apologizing.

‘Why? Why do you come out with a low profile?’

It was to the point where I thought for a moment that I might not be the main character.

His behavior was so unexpected.

“I apologize like this. So can you accept me?”

oh Was it like that

I realized what the main character had in his tone as if he were reading a Korean book.

“Why do you want to accompany me like that?”

“… .”

The main character has no answer.

It made me more confident in my thoughts.

‘I covet talent, but I don’t have confidence.’

There is only one reason why the main character acts passively.

When talent can’t be taken away.

When the protagonist realizes that he is weaker than his opponent, he bends himself.

That’s how you make your opponent off guard and kill you at the decisive moment.

It is a method that the main character often uses in novels, so it is impossible to forget it even if you forget it.

“Honestly, it’s hard to understand.”

I glanced around.

The devastation he created with just one swing of the sword showed how strong his power was.

“I don’t know why you would want to join us.”

“… .”

The eyes of the main character looking at me are fierce.

It seems that the group thinks that the reason they reject me is because of me.

If I hadn’t rejected him from the start, he wouldn’t have had to make such an excuse.

Even if you think so, there is nothing to say.

Because it’s true.

“There is a saying in the North to be more careful of people than monsters.”

When a stranger approached me kindly and asked to accompany me, of course I had to be suspicious.

I don’t know what his intentions are, but accepting the company suddenly was the same as saying, “Let me catch you.”

“Shouldn’t you at least know why?”

Ordinary people, similar to those he had met before, would not have said this.

I wish I could have dealt with it so that I didn’t ignore it, pass it by, or make a fuss, but I’m not trying to solve it through conversation like I am now.

Because he is a person who is different from ordinary people, he wants to solve it as peacefully as possible.

‘I may not lose, but that doesn’t mean I can win.’

If I had the conviction that I could defeat the main character with my current strength.

I would have killed him at any cost.

Because my ultimate goal was to survive him.

But I can’t.

Even though he had no talent for swordsmanship, he consistently walked the path of a monster.

No swordsmanship talent?

Then fill it with other talents.

No matter how small the talent is, it is a great mountain by gathering dust, and when it is united, it is not something to be ignored.

‘In this trip to the north, the main character gathered many talents.’

If you analogize the words of the people who came in for a round of tea, you could easily guess that fact.

To the extent that he had to hunt humans because there were monsters, the main character wiped out all the monsters.

And the accumulated talents are still melting into his body and endowing him with great strength.

Are you sure you will win against such a monster?

It would have been impossible without the Sword Master on our side.

“If you say it’s because you’re lonely going out alone.”

“Then I will refuse. I can only feel that the reason for wanting to accompany us is impure.”

The opposite is true for the main character to accompany them.

On the contrary, there was also a desire for the main character to accompany them.

Being with the main character would be uncomfortable in many ways.

It was clear that we had to be vigilant at all times and pay attention to the protagonist’s every move.

‘The problem is that it’s the same even if I’m not accompanied.’

I saw great talent.

Perhaps, among the talents he had seen so far, the most brilliant talents, there were two of them in one place.

How can a glutton with a lot of appetite ignore dinner?

never ignore

This could be predicted with certainty.

Even if you break up here, the main character will follow you until the end and wait for you to be vigilant.

Knowing that, of course, I can’t neglect my vigilance.

It can’t be a really sh*tty situation.

“Honestly, it’s strange that I’m talking to you here. I have no intention of adding more people here.”

First of all, I thought I would exclude him as much as possible and continued.

“Since his words don’t go as he wants, it’s like he’s openly trying to live. You showed a bad side in many ways, what should we believe and accept you?”

“So you can live.”

The main character replied, scattering his energy as if he had stopped acting.

The momentum was so intense that even Mahol flinched.

It was different from Count Warrug’s sharpness, and it wasn’t as heavy as Count Millennium’s.

The main character’s momentum was soggy.

It was sticky, like stepping into a swamp.

“I don’t forget those who ignore me.”

He smiled ferociously, as if he would cut him down if he refused.

Yes, that’s the main character.

It’s better for me to act like that.

“under. Did you think we would be frightened by such a threat?”

“What should I do? All you have to do is kill it.”

However, the group was different from what I thought.

I expressed my dissatisfaction with the main character’s attitude, not paying attention to the momentum he exudes.

Mahol was openly holding a dagger and looking at me as if asking for an order right away.

Seeing that, I felt reassured and sorry.

Unfortunately, they will do the exact opposite of their will.

“great.”

“… ?”

“It’s good. Let’s go together.”

“what… ?”

“Red Mill!”

“Sir Red Mill! what is that all of a sudden… !”

My words were so unexpected that even the main character who had been threatening me was taken aback.

Looking back at the vehemently opposed party, he slightly bowed his head to express his apology.

I can’t explain something to them right now.

To them, ‘Ah, this is the person who will destroy the continent in the future. I don’t think I can respond to anything if I have him next to me’, isn’t it?

No matter how much I explained later, it was difficult to explain anything like this now.

There is a main character in front of me, but I can’t curse in front of him.

“… well thought out It’s the right choice.”

The protagonist nodded with a satisfied face and put the sword he was holding into the scabbard.

Then he came closer to me and stretched out his hand as if asking for a favor.

“… .”

I don’t want to hold on

As I was staring at that hand, a hand suddenly jumped out from beside me and grabbed it.

paper weave-

It looks like lasers are coming out of its eyes.

Mahol frowned, but smiled with effort.

It seemed like I had made a decision and would abide by that decision.

“Hmm. I wish you well in the future.”

The main character wasn’t particularly offended, and even offered to shake hands with Beatrice.

Those he now asks for a handshake can assume he has spit on.

Remember that your talent is mine.

“you also… .”

But why did he shake hands with Reina?

Reina’s face as she held the protagonist’s hand was disgust itself.

He brushed his hands as if he had touched an insect and clung to my back.

The main character shook hands with Alice as well and stood in front of me.

“My name is Ahar.”

***

Ahar joined, and the party looked at me with displeasure.

It was the faces that couldn’t understand why he accepted him who was so rude.

Since I didn’t know the exact situation, I could fully understand their reaction.

“I won’t be involved in all the by-products you get from now on, so share them yourself.”

Ahar first notified us that all profits from hunting would be passed on to us.

One of the reasons he said that is, it doesn’t matter if you kill him anyway, it’s his. It looked just like that.

However, there was no particular reason to fault it, so we accepted his offer.

At least my friends did.

Unlike the others, who thought that receiving something from Ahar was undesirable, I was determined to tear it away from him.

“I think that will not be enough. It was a great sacrifice for us to accept you, and we should be rewarded for it.”

“You said you would give up by-products for that reward.”

“That is not enough. You threatened to kill us. Shouldn’t you be paid for it?”

“… what do you want?”

He seemed to have given up and told me to tell him what he wanted, as if he was bothered by arguing with me.

“Give us half of the by-products you have.”

“… .”

Ahar shut his mouth and was silent.

I looked at him with my arms crossed.

He must have gathered quite a lot of by-products while hunting countless monsters.

Among them, there must be things that are ranked high among magical materials.

I wanted to receive it as compensation for mental damage.

No matter how much material he thought he didn’t need, the materials he gathered now were a very precious resource apart from all that.

If you take it back and ask the smithy, you could get a good weapon.

That’s why you’re worried.

After a while, he nodded and handed me one of his four pockets.

“Will this be enough?”

“Well… Would you like that too?”

“… Don’t you think it’s gone too far?”

When I point to the pouch hanging from the side of the sword, he glares at me and growls.

I was too thick-headed to be afraid of that.

“If you don’t like it, you can go alone.”

Shrugging his shoulders, he gritted his teeth as he spoke.

And after wandering around for a while, he let out a deep sigh and untied my pocket.

And there was no warning left.

“I will never forget this.”

“Yes. Thank you for writing it well.”

“doggish… .”

Passing his curse words over the back of my ear, I took the pouch and tied it around my waist.

Seeing that it’s the size of a fist and very light, it seems that there is a weight reduction magic.

A product like this would have cost a lot of money.

Well, that has nothing to do with me.

As I started moving again, I sneaked up to Mahol and whispered in his ear.

“Mahol.”

“Yes?”

“From now on, you must suffocate every enemy you encounter. can you do it?”

Mahol looks back at me for a moment.

Then, with a determined face, he nodded.

“I will do it.”

You don’t have to take it too seriously.

I felt a bit burdened because I seemed to be giving too much meaning to my words.
