I Became a Foreigner Loved by Transcendentalists

25 – Episode 25. What I like is people who are fun

My heart races.

Faster than before and more intensely.

‘Yo, the warrior slayer…. Really?’

At the same time, my head was spinning due to the faster blood flow, and I felt my trembling body gradually stiffening.

‘If I go any further than this, I might really die…….’

No, maybe it’s already too late.

At this moment, as he looked down while holding the spear in his hand, there was no sign of mercy towards him at all.

That kind of awareness caused my rapidly rising self-esteem to drop, and the empty space began to be filled with fear…….

“Off, heo…” … !”

It was at that moment that my breathing, which should have been rapid, suddenly stopped.

The feeling of frustration pricked his chest like a stake, and Lee Garam’s body began to convulse from intense pain.

A corner of the left chest.

I felt that the organs that were supposed to move continuously as long as I was alive had stopped, and everything that had to move along with them had stopped all at once.

“Oh, a billion!”

The moment when the muscles of the entire body stop all at once, and even the airway does not move properly and breathing stops.

Nevertheless, I tried to force my neck to breathe, but even that only resulted in my tongue being covered in crab foam created by swelling saliva.

‘Poetry, heart…. My heart stopped…….’

A sudden shock that occurred in a short period of time.

As Lee Garam, unable to withstand it, collapsed with her eyes rolled back, the crowd, who belatedly sensed her situation, began to approach her one by one.

“What? “Why is that warrior like that?”

“Seo, is it really a curse? Did that guy put a curse!?”

“Jjajjang! “Quickly call the priest!”

The moment when a new warrior, who followed the customs of warriors, was reduced to a miserable bastard.

However, unlike the confused adventurers, the man who overwhelmed the girl did not pay any attention and just turned his head in his seat.

He held the spear that was aimed at the hero’s head straight in his hand.

“… Come this way.”

With the other hand, he grabbed the hand of the bard who had been chosen as the warrior’s sacrifice and dragged him toward the exit.

“Oh, hey… ….”

“Do you want to stay here?”

The man glances back at the bard, who seems embarrassed by the sudden contact.

The bard, who had been silently staring at that face with narrow eyes, soon lowered his head and began to quietly follow behind him.

And… ….

“… “You brought a warrior to this point and didn’t even blink.”

“Was the rumor true?”

The crowd continues to whisper as they watch him leave his seat.

It was some time later that the notoriety of the hero hunters that began from then spread beyond the adventurer’s guild and spread to the entire empire.

****

“…… “Huh.”

After leaving the guild.

Still, I was not at ease, so I held the bard’s hand and walked down the street looking for a place where no one was looking.

He only talks at a pace, but at a speed that is almost like running away.

What happened before was something that even I, who had seen everything I could see and could not see in this world, was heartbroken.

Damn it, how dare you appear in front of a hero, trusting only one infamous bastard.

If it weren’t for my life, wouldn’t I be considered crazy?

“Hey… ….”

How long did he walk down the street with the woman he saved, even taking such risks?

As soon as she entered a remote alley, she called me, and I glanced down at her hand, which was holding her, and spoke insinuatingly.

“You were trying to get away from the bar, right? I think it would be okay if I fell this far…….”

“… ….”

Without saying a word, he glanced at her, looked back at her, and took her hand away.

Anyway, if you’ve come this far, there’s no need to act.

After calming down my previously sharp nerves and gaze, I quietly looked back at the bard who had been brought out from there.

A woman whose everything, from the hood on her head to the robe she is wearing, to her skin and hair color, is stained white.

She had a pure appearance in and of itself, but her eyes were so narrow that it was impossible to tell whether they were open or closed.

“Well, I’m not sure I understand the situation yet.”

As she stared at me with those eyes, she tilted her head and asked back as if she were voicing her questions.

“By any chance, were you trying to save me from there?”

“… hehehehe.”

I saved him… ….

Okay, well, it’s not wrong.

Normally, I wouldn’t care if the warriors were causing trouble, but the woman in front of me was someone who Airi, who predicted my death, gave me as a lifeline.

Now that I had endured a direct encounter with the hero and rescued him, I sat down on the floor to release the emotions I had been suppressing.

Thump, applying more force until the sound is heard.

“Sorry for being so rude!”

In addition, the apology mixed with sobs that burst out the moment she hit her head on the ground.

I didn’t feel any hesitation there.

I’ve had to beg for my life several times, and now I’ve reached the point where I’ve reached the point where I’ve laid my head on the ground.

Those who thought this was pathetic should try to build up their self-esteem to the executives of the Demon King’s Army.

You will be able to vividly experience the flying pot that kills you without pain.

“…… “Why are you suddenly apologizing?”

But as if she didn’t understand me, the bard girl just tilted her head slightly.

“Didn’t you break in to help me?”

It looked cute to see him tilting his head to the other side once again, but now was not the time to get absorbed in that kind of charm.

“Well, anyway, I did something very rude to someone I was meeting for the first time.”

“Rude… ?”

“So, that…” ….”

Wanting to explain to her that she still didn’t understand, I took a moment to look back at what I had said earlier.

So, the words I uttered while dealing with that young warrior.

‘It looks like you’ve just been summoned here, so it would be best to step down while I have good words to say.’

Yes, even though I was in the position to save her, I didn’t run away without her believing in anything.

In fact, it is customary for a hero who has just been summoned to the Adventurer’s Guild to show up.

This process is repeated, they gradually become accustomed to it, and soon they grow into screw-ups who treat people carelessly, which is one of the growth processes of the warriors I know.

If he was at that starting point, he thought he could be driven back just by scaring him with my notoriety.

‘I’ve seen countless people like you die because they were arrogant and only believed in their abilities.’

‘…You. If you do more than this, you will really die.’

The other threats made were intended to scare people as much as possible, relying on that notoriety, but about half of them were also out of a little sympathy or concern.

They say that all heroes are damned bastards, but the sensibilities of people who have just entered this world are probably no different from those of modern people.

If you’re a child who hasn’t even gotten your citizenship card yet, you’ll have to go through a rough ride before you can come to your senses before experiencing money and power.

Of course, the resistance was stronger than expected, so this side almost lost, but it was fortunate that the spear was lucky enough to fly to the side and make us lose our minds.

It didn’t go as planned, but in the end, I’m glad I was able to get through it safely…….

‘What are you trying to do to my girl?’

But no matter what, this is not the case.

What do you think of Mosol Adajuse who has never properly dated a woman before? My woman?

“I’m sorry for calling you my girl without even knowing the topic!!”

I hung my head again, remembering the shame of what I said back then.

They say they needed a justification to help, but if they didn’t come to a proper agreement with the person involved, it was obvious that they would think it was unpleasant.

Yeah, she obviously thinks she’s gone too far now that her situation is over.

She certainly thought so.

“… Phew.”

In fact, it is not strange to express discomfort, but it is a situation that returns to this situation.

It was a faint sound of laughter that quietly approached my ears and revealed its presence.

“Oh, sorry. I started laughing without realizing it. I thought what you were doing was fun…….”

“… Yes? “It’s fun.”

“Yes, I didn’t say it was a nuisance or anything…. “I thought he was a fun person.”

Are you just saying this out of consideration?

As I sensed her doubts, she began to bend her knees in her seat and put her head on the ground so that she was at eye level with me.

“I heard people say it before… …. “Did you say your name was Woo Hyo-seong?”

“Ah, yes. This is Woo Hyo-seong. His last name is Ugo and his first name is Hyosung…….”

“Yes, nice to meet you, Hyosung.”

Sigh, she stretches out her hand towards me.

As she stretched out her thin, white hand without hesitation, there was a smile on her face that felt as noble as her hand.

As if I was immersed in her smile, I was guided by her hand, and before I knew it, her body was standing up, and immediately she took out the lute she was carrying and faced me once again.

“Well, since it’s fate that we met like this, I should also introduce myself.”

-Tiring~

A clear melody created by plucking the strings.

“My name is Marylin Surgeland…” ….”

Her mouth opened when the noise stopped.

“I am a humble clown who makes it my business to process the stories I collect while traveling through this chaotic world and have their value proven through new encounters.”

Marilyn.

The name of a new relationship forged by a prophet who predicted my death.

But with that bold introduction, I couldn’t help but feel one question.

“… Clown? “Not a bard?”

“hehehe, you could say that too.”

Do you mean that introducing yourself as a clown does not deny that you are a minstrel?

I’m glad I didn’t get it wrong.

“And let me introduce myself…. “What I like most about him is that he is a fun person.”

“Ah, yes. Funny… …. Yes?”

A word that continues quietly just as I was passing it off so casually.

Without realizing it, I made a blank expression and thought about what she said for a moment.

What I like the most is interesting people…….

Then what does the standard of liking mean?

Pure interest? Or your ideal type?

Just a moment before that. What did she say when she heard my apology?

“He said he likes interesting people.”

I flinch.

Marilyn repeats the same thing the moment she tries to deny that it can’t be like that.

When I realized it, she immediately grabbed my hanging hand and began to close the distance.

“… Mr. Hyosung.”

“Yes, four?”

“If you feel sorry for me, could you please do me a favor for making this happen?”

“Boo, do you mean a favor?”

“Yes, I also came to this city today and became an adventurer, but as it happens, I am not familiar with activities in this empire, so I have no idea what to do next.”

Mary Lynn tilts her head slightly, grinning and smiling.

“So, could you please guide this lowly clown on his journey for just a moment?”

Just hearing the soft and warm voice that accompanied him, she felt her body becoming stiff for no reason.

Tachia, who made my armor, and Airi, who read my fortune, also touched my body, but in their case, they did not approach me with such direct affection.

Yes, at first glance, what she is giving off right now could definitely be called goodwill.

“Yes, yes. Well, if it’s okay with me……. Sigh!”

The moment I tried to deny that unconscious expectation and continued with the work I had planned, she soon took the hand that was holding my hand and began quietly squeezing my arm and shoulder.

“Wow, your body is very stiff. “Are you nervous?”

“Oh, no. This… ….”

“Whoa~”

“Wow!?”

A warm wind suddenly hits my ears.

When she let out a comical moan and trembled, she quickly backed away from me with a mischievous smile.

“hehehe, I’m sorry. “I blew it because I wanted to relieve tension, but were you surprised because I didn’t say anything?”

“Uh, um, no. It’s okay. Yes.”

How long had it been since he hesitated and watched her?

Just standing there, facing her smiling face, I felt a part of her heart being filled with an uncomfortable feeling.

… Damn, this is too dangerous.

“Well, since you asked for guidance, shall we go to the guild? Ah, it will be a bit noisy there, so go to the other guild…”

“Yes, then please take care of me. Mr. Hyosung.”

Marilyn answered favorably and quietly took a seat behind me.

Afterwards, she went to the guild again in response to her request, but her steps in the process could not help but become stiff.

Behind that innocent-looking face.

Because I vaguely guessed that there is something strange that disturbs people’s hearts…
