41 – #041 It’s not worth protecting

Just as I was given the ability to be a mortician, others also received special abilities.

Mostly, there were many people who had developed the talent to defeat the demon king and the demon king, and among them, there was one man who was the most trustworthy and trustworthy.

-Brother! You don’t have to listen to girls?! They’re all trying to make hyung bounce around and they’re just trying to put a spoon on them from behind!

-This is the trait given to me, so what do I do?

-Hyung is already an adult! He doesn’t have to be an adult!

– It’s okay. Even in the army, I was beaten a lot by senior officers. It’s okay because you’re used to it.

Among the 108 warriors, there were only a handful of ‘military men’.

No matter how embarrassed they were, each of the military scribes performed better than others based on the knowledge and experience they had learned in the military.

And among them, this man was given a job that could be called a vocation as a tanker.

Enormity.

An existence that can protect its allies from others by increasing its size.

As if he was injected with the blood of a giant and turned into a giant at the genetic level, he used his giant trait to protect countless people.

-Thanks to his brother protecting us, we were able to live! Thank you so much!

-hehehe, thanks to me…

-Hyung. It’s thanks to my real brother. When I get back to Earth, I’ll tell my parents and they’ll pay my brother as much as he really wants. Thank you for keeping us

– Thank you for protecting me…? I?

And he gradually began to be immersed in helping someone.

Even if he was useless, he could use his body to help others.

– I, I protect…!

-Thank you, brother!!

-Hey!! Min Sena! Keugh, that thing will run away again…! Because I have to be a 2-man tank…!

-I can do it for 3 people…!

That alone made him immersed in his own world no matter what anyone said.

Looking at it up to this point, he seems to be stained with madness just because he had a little bit of this ability, but he was a key agent who always ranked in 10th out of 108 of us until the demonic spear incident occurred.

-Hyung. Is your brother not sick? Even I, who collects corpses on the battlefield, is filthy and painful when I get hurt like this?

I wasn’t very close, but I did talk to him who digging with me whenever I went to collect corpses.

– It’s painful. Sick I feel like dying. But… It’s not really about to die.

-But.

-If I’m a bit sick and suffering, even one more hero can live. I don’t want the people of this world. To be honest, it’s kind of hard to go there. I just… Want at least one more person to live and return to Earth together.

-…Sorry I wasn’t helpful.

– What? Are you okay. Because each person has to adapt to the ability given to them. Originally, if you organize things like raid engineering, there will come a time when you really need all kinds of jobs. I’m sure you’ll see the light

People were good.

He always spoke kindly to me, the undertaker, and he tried to protect everyone even after that.

From the devil’s point of view, I wonder if he was quite annoying.

A special cursed spear created just for him pierced the giant’s body.

-Uh, uh…?

The cursed spear filled with demonic energy pierced the giant’s spine, and he could no longer return to normal.

-Me, why can’t I go back to normal…? Like this, is it really necessary to stay like this? Ah, hahahaha, hahahahaha…!!

He despaired that he could no longer return to his original self.

-The answer will come when you pull out the demon spear!

Fortunately, there was an answer.

The answer was to take the demon spear out of the hero’s body, and although the demon spear fortunately permeated into the giant’s body, it maintained its elongated shape.

-All you have to do is pull out the magic spear nestled in the hero’s body! Then even the hero can return to normal…Wait, the location of the magic spear…?

– Why is that? Is there something wrong with you?

-The magic spear… Has become your backbone.

-What…?

By one of his vertebrae.

It was also vertically elongated from bone to bone, stabbing the giant’s body up and down to support it so that even the waist could not be bent, and the entire spine was stained with demonic energy.

-Well, then what will happen to me! Are you going to die from being eroded by demonic energy like this? Oh, that can’t be! Saintess! With the help of the holy woman’s divine power!!

-Stop it, champion! Do you intend to enter the Holy See with a body engulfed by demons? If you do, the sacred barrier will collapse!

– Then someone can save me!

He was desperate.

-I’ve been protecting you guys and now I’m like this, so who can save me!!

Frustrated that no one could save him.

-Lee, what will happen to me if I go on like this? Huh? What will happen if you take out the magic spear?

– Since part of the spine is removed, the lower half of the body will no longer be usable. You may have to live with only the upper half of your body. That’s a slim possibility, and you may have to live with the demon spear pierced.

-Why do you keep saying that?! Say something cool! Can you save me!!

-…No.

– Ha ha ha…!

Saved countless warriors, saved citizens, and regarded all kinds of wounds and pain on his body as his medal, but in the end, he made an extreme choice because no one could heal him.

– Siwoo. Please listen to my brother’s request. You’re going to go into the eastern edge over there and seal yourself away?

He chose to disappear to the eastern part of the continent.

-Kill me as a human being before I go crazy being encroached on by demons. Since Jeongin and Seho decided to erase my memory, even if my body moves without dying, that doesn’t mean ‘me’. I should die like that yes.

-Hyung. Clearly there is a way…

– Come and visit us if you can. Come to me if you find a way, either to kill me forever or to bring me back to life. It’s unlikely, but I want to die as a human before then.

So he died.

He chose to die rather than be engulfed in the demonic energy of the demonic spear that was permanently embedded in his spine and suffer the pain of his eternal life.

Leaving the will to live, instead, I wanted to become a ‘shelter’ in this world while maintaining only one other purpose.

As a shelter that excludes all others and protects only the brave.

“You see that? Titania?”

“…It’s more overwhelming when you see it up close.”

I took out Titania from the top of the cliff, overlooking the giant.

“What is that? It’s not the size I used to know?”

“I’ve only heard that you’ve grown to that level, but it’s been a few months since I’ve actually seen it. It actually coincided with the time you were sealed away.”

After Titania was sealed, the magic spear also got stuck in the giant’s body and couldn’t come out anymore.

Even calling it a seal is ambiguous.

It’s just that the demon spear was stuck in the giant’s body, and if the demon king had personally come and killed the giant and retrieved the demon spear, I don’t know, but luckily the demon king couldn’t retrieve the demon spear.

Thanks to that, we were able to win against the demon lord without a demon spear.

I’m just thinking about it now, but if the demon king had only one of the four weapons, the demon king would surely have won against mankind.

If that were the case, the giant would have been able to find perfect rest, even his body.

And we’d all be dead.

“…It’s hard to say that it was a noble sacrifice, but thanks to that giant, we were able to survive.”

“And now you’re trying to pull out a demonic spear from a giant? Then you’re killing a giant. Do you have the strength to do that?”

“No.”

Giants are stronger than me.

His level was quite high as he was a tanker who was in the top 10 of the strategy group, and even before he died, his level was close to 90.

Can you win against the body that remains even if you don’t have a soul, and against that gigantic body even if it’s cursed?

Well.

If you fight, you will surely not win.

But.

“I’m not here to win against that one.”

“Hey. If you’re not winning, what are you here for?”

“I’m just trying to pull out the magic spear.”

If it were me now, I could pull out the magic spear stuck in my body.

“Now that the Demon King is dead, the curse on the Demon Spear must have also weakened. In this world, I’m the only one with enough strength to open the back of a giant and pull out the Demon Spear.”

“How are you going to get it out?”

“Put the shovel into the vertebrae, then pull out the magic spear with both hands.”

The actual magic spear is about 2m long.

As much as the demon spear has dug deep inside the vertebrae, it might be virtually impossible to just pull it out-

“Huh?”

Far away.

It flashed for a moment that the giant was holding it in his hand.

Something pink was like the ‘it’ I knew, and I felt an indescribable fear.

“No way…”

“What’s wrong?”

“Titania. Can you see it? The giant’s left hand, clutched inward.”

“…Certainly, seeing as it crawls on its elbows, it looks like it’s holding something in its hands. Isn’t that a demonic spear? It pulls it out of its spine on its own, and then, unable to seal it, holds it in its own hand.”

“If it’s something to be sealed with a magic spear?”

“…Then there’s only one, so that woman is over there?”

“Maybe.”

It’s only a sight I’ve seen, but it’s definitely a high probability.

“Park Ha-young is in the hands of a giant.”
