Abandoned Retired Warrior Decides to Return to Farming

Recently, while staying at an inn, I bought a good alarm clock.

“I want to go out and play with Kael too!”

6 o’clock every morning.

Lucia, who doesn’t allow a single minute of error, breaks in and breaks the doorknob.

Then he climbed on top of me, who was sleeping well, and ran all over the place, vomiting the accumulated frustration.

“I want to go out. I want to go out. I want to go out. I want to go out. I want to go out. I want to go out. I want to go out. I want to go out. I want to go out!!”

Well, after all, it’s all about using the same words like a child.

But thanks to that, Serin and I had to wake up by rubbing our sleepy eyes today.

“I can’t stand it anymore! No matter what Kael says, I’m leaving today!!”

“Lucia, we promised. Let’s stay calm until the party is over.”

“I don’t know, like that. without even playing I don’t even fight Cael was bad! When will you find my sword!”

Oh, that.

I was thinking of burying it somewhere in the back mountain after secretly recovering it by myself.

I don’t know about anything else, but he seems to have forgotten about the fight.

“Don’t worry, I’ll find you soon. And he said he would help me get my revenge.”

“So you can go and kill them all with me now! Or I’ll do it myself!”

If you’re just going to kill it and end it, what are you going to do with this pain?

If that’s the case, it’s enough for me to be alone without you.

He must have explained the plan once at the village and once again at the inn.

It seems that Lucia understood the concept of revenge only as death.

“Lucia, revenge doesn’t end with just killing. There is a profound border between yin and yang…”

“huh. Don’t try to deceive me with difficult words. That’s not possible!”

Lucia interrupted me, puffed out her cheeks, and protested.

Usually, when I said something like this, I nodded with a blank face.

It looks like it’s pretty tight.

“ha.”

I sighed as I faced Lucia, who sat on top of me.

She was still pouting her lips and protesting.

But no matter what, I can’t take them with me now.

No matter how many times you try to flip the robe, Mary will definitely notice it when she sees it.

At that moment, the sound of salvation’s footsteps came from the hallway.

thump thump.

Obviously, Aerith came to know that Lucia was gone.

I turned around with such a hopeful face, but there was only a saint standing there with dark circles and droopy faces.

“Whoa, Kael. Give up.”

“Eh, Aerith?”

“Soothing Lucia is harder than putting a baby to sleep. Whoops, whoops…”

“·················ogue.”

Aerith leaned against the wall in a somewhat haggard manner and let out a laugh that you too would suffer.

It must have been too much to leave it for a week.

I finally raised my upper body and looked straight at Lucia, who was in pain.

“I can’t.”

As soon as she heard me, her eyes twinkled and she nodded her head.

“Yes. i know what that means This is what Kusha and Aerith use when they give up!”

“okay? haha. pity you.”

How the hell did both of you suffer?

I shook my head in regret and stroked Lucia’s head.

Then she shook her head and poked her face out.

“Then, Cael, what are you going to do with me? I want to go to the street stalls, to see performances, and also to visit the dating course!”

“Oh, yes… but don’t you know what a date is?”

“I don’t know!”

Having said that, Lucia was proud as usual.

Yeah, it’s your forte that you don’t know anything. our motherf*cker Just grow up like this.

As I straightened out my messy hair, she smiled, as if in a good mood.

“So where are you going to take me?”

Instead of answering that question, I glanced at Serin’s head.

The single white flower buds suddenly became three.

She always wore it on her head when she was sleeping, eating, or in her room.

“Hmm.”

I moaned low and turned my head toward the palace that I saw outside the window.

Originally, I had no intention of bringing Lucia to the party.

“Lucia. Then let’s go to the party tomorrow.”

I guess I need to change my plans.

*

The banquet for Kael is approaching tomorrow.

As the preparation period was short, the week went by in a flash.

The attendants were busily moving around, and the band was busy tuning their instruments.

As we reached the final stage, Aurelia, the organizer, came out to check it out.

“there! you’re completely crooked Are you thinking of embarrassing me now?”

“Sin, sorry!”

But how many times has it already been?

Silence fell in the banquet hall whenever Aurelia was irritable.

Those who were in the midst of preparations stopped what they were doing and only looked at their eyes.

And soon I had to be careful not to even hear the plate clap.

“Hey, not twice. Where are you going again?”

She clicked her tongue and looked around in disbelief.

All were sluggish and useless.

Well, the last hope that can stop the Demon King. There’s no way such lowly things would know the meaning of Cael’s return.

She was so frustrated and sighed.

‘Well, that means I’m the only one who can truly welcome Kael.’

At that thought, Aurelia smiled with a sense of superiority.

However, even after that, the criticism continued tens of hundreds of times, and each time the atmosphere subsided heavily.

“Fufu. This is a masterpiece.”

At that moment, in such a thin ice-like atmosphere, Mary’s voice was relaxed.

She sat at the table, busy looking at the crystal ball, not paying attention to what was going on around her.

“Serin, you must have almost lost your virginity to those men.”

And from time to time, Mary bursts into laughter with an unfamiliar self-talk.

In the end, Aurelia couldn’t see and spoke to her.

“What are you doing, Mary?”

I’m sure he told me to keep an eye on Kael and Serin.

She spoke with such a nuance, but Mary still couldn’t take her eyes off the crystal ball.

And instead of answering, I showed Aurelia the scene reflected in the crystal ball.

“yes? Is Cael cutting Serine’s ankle?”

“How about it, isn’t it funny?”

Aurelia asked for an explanation while nodding her head.

Then Mary showed me a flower and continued.

“All I’m seeing now are bad memories of Serin. A few days ago, I gave Serin this flower pin, because if you put it on your hair for a certain period of time, you can look into that person’s memory.”

“Hmm. it’s kinda fun But didn’t he find out?”

“Fufu, what is needed for this kind of magic is not the amount of magic power, but how delicately the magic is administered. I can complete it with even the smallest amount of magical power, and no matter how elf is, the swordsman Serin cannot recognize it.”

Upon hearing that, Aurelia looked at the crystal ball again.

The previous scene had already passed, and when Serin asked about Mary, there was Cael’s answer.

“However, as it is a delicate magic with low magical power, the only downside is that it has only one memory per flower. Besides, he threw away what I gave him. So I couldn’t see it very well, but it was declaring a pet to someone.”

“Hmm. But other than that, you showed me three things.”

So she threw away what Mary gave me and bought three of them by herself.

Aurelia couldn’t understand why she had bought so many of those sleazy things.

“But you mean, are you going to use Serin as a test subject as well?”

Aurelia asked with a tone of hope in her heart.

I wish I could write it personally. Being by Kael’s side is enough for me alone.

Unlike Low, there is only one competitor, Serine.

After hearing her words, Mary pondered for a moment and then smiled.

“maybe. But before that, there is a more fun way to have fun.”

“what is that?”

Suddenly Mary motioned for her to put her ear closer.

Aurelia, who heard the way she had said it, listened to everything and then smiled and folded her arms.

“It will definitely be fun. In the meantime, leave a record as an artifact. I’ll take a look later.”

“Fufu, of course not.”

The thought of Serin leaving Kael’s side made me happy already.

Besides, Cael said he was definitely looking forward to this party, too.

Starting with this banquet, everything will come back.

Along with the seal of the Demon King, his position, power, and wealth and honor.

Finally, to Kael.

that’s all

“Fufu, I hope tomorrow comes sooner.”

Aurelia thought so sincerely as she looked at the prepared banquet hall.

But behind the scenes, Mary was sneering at her baseless confidence.

*

the night before the party. I left the inn alone at midnight when everyone was asleep.

Under the deep darkness where no stars could be seen, I walked down the street at night in the gentle breeze.

After passing through a street without a single light, there was an imperial cathedral.

profit.

I opened the door without delay and went in.

And with the permission of the headmaster in advance, he entered the place where the coffin was kept.

The largest and most prominent coffin. It was placed in the center and I had seen it a few days ago, so there was no confusion.

Ashua.

I stood in front of the coffin with the familiar name engraved on it.

“I think I should come at least once.”

I heard from Lucia, but she’s really dead.

“·················ogue.”

He stood there silently for a while.

But I didn’t think that it was particularly sad or sad about that.

Because I already had no reason to mourn him.

– Kael, I’m sorry. I have no choice but to obey Aurelia.

The day I was betrayed and left the Empire, I remembered what he said to my back.

Ashua sided with Aurelia, saying that she should be responsible for the family and household.

Come to think of it, he might be similar to Serine.

Serin also turned her back on me for her motherland and her wealth and honor,

He was a coward and a fool, although he wasn’t a villain.

I stared at his coffin left alone for a long time,

Geary muttered a low voice at that shabby end.

“I forgive you, Ashua.”

Those words echoed hollowly in the cathedral.

“But don’t get me wrong, Ashua. I’m not going to forgive you just because you’re dead.”

But that doesn’t mean he did it after he forgave Serin.

It’s just that by your death you forever lost the chance to apologize to me.

I was punished for having to carry that guilt for the rest of my life even after I died.

You will never be comfortable with your personality.

“Probably will never come back.”

However, I had no intention of sipping a glass of wine to say that I had forgiven them and smiling face to face.

So he said that and turned his back.

Did he really hear me?

Maybe it didn’t come through, but Mary might have been listening.

But it doesn’t matter.

The day will never come when she will hear this from me directly.

Yes, I will not forgive you, even if it means that you die as wretched as you are.

‘Mary, Gerald, and Aurelia.’

I called their names one by one from the depths of my heart.

and promised

I don’t think they will ever die without my permission.

“It is soon.”

When I left the church, the darkness cleared and the stars began to appear one by one.

As soon as we arrived at the inn, it was morning.

Soon, the day of the banquet came.
