My Disciples Know That I Am Strong

Chapter 10

Episode 1. Gathering warriors (10)

“I guess everything went well?”

I don’t know if I can say that this worked out well, but I think it’s fortunate that it was in the Middle Ages.

In modern times, he could have been tried for several months and sent to prison.

In this respect, the Middle Ages, when the judiciary had not yet been formed, was not bad because it was flexible.

“Yes.”

“I see… …. What a relief.”

“…… Your face is swollen.”

I gently stroked Tina’s cheek with the back of my hand. The area where the cheek was slapped was swollen.

“Oh, this… ….”

He slowly pulled away and covered his swollen skin with his hand.

“Drink.”

Before chasing after Tina, I handed out her stocked potion.

I expected to be beaten because I didn’t pay.

“It’s a potion. I can’t drink anything this expensive…….”

Looking at the bottle of her red liquid, Tina waved her hand violently.

Thirty fairy tales is enough for a commoner to live comfortably for nearly a month, so it was understandable that they were frightened.

“And the swelling from being hit heals quickly. Even if I look like this, I’m a bit strong.”

The reason why his body is strong and recovers quickly is probably because of the strength of a warrior who has not yet awakened.

If it hadn’t been for the hero’s strength, she might have died long ago.

Actually, in the slums, they must have been quiet, but there are quite a few children who died from being beaten by the garbage.

I don’t know because the name wasn’t mentioned in the game, but it was officially announced that there was such a setting.

“Be noisy, drink. It’s cheap.”

I forced her to hold her potion and went in front of her. I hear footsteps following me.

“Hey, Prause.”

The girl standing next to me called my name.

“What is it?”

“Why are you trying to take me?”

“…… You are helpful to me.”

“I…… As you know, I’m not good at begging, and I don’t have the skills Prause would want.”

If you feel that you have no talent, it is because you are not in the blooming period yet.

The blooming period is different for each hero, but usually the moment they awaken is from the moment they decide to meet and fight the demons.

“Don’t worry. What I want you to do is not something like begging. And from the moment I said I was going to take you back, I was going to take ‘responsibility’ for your life.”

“Responsibilities… ….”

“I will never have to suffer for money in the future. I will feed you what you want to eat, dress you in the clothes you want to wear, and let you sleep in a comfortable bed.”

I said this, but I couldn’t buy something that was too expensive.

If you sell the relics, you won’t have any problems making a living for several years, but feeding 3 people will cost more money than you think.

My father may continue to provide economic aid.

“Is it worth it to me?”

Negative emotions come to mind in the black eyes looking up at me. I snorted and said nonchalantly.

“Prove your worth. Please wait patiently until then.”

It’s not a nice thing to say to a child, but even after going through the snout filtering, I came up with some useful consolation.

“Okay.”

After answering that, she opened the lid of the potion and gulped it down.

Immediately, the swelling on my face began to subside. At the same time, his eyes changed. Enthusiasm is felt.

“I will prove my worth. I will definitely become the person Prause needs.”

“Yes.”

* * *

We headed straight for the inn.

It was to report to Iris while Tina was washing herself.

Kikkik.

“Ah, Mr. Prause is here…… What?”

A girl with fox ears jumps out as soon as she opens the door.

Iris hesitated as she looked at Tina next to me. Tina, too, was surprised to see her iris and pointed her finger at her.

“Oh, it’s a fox!”

It was a meeting of two warriors.

Iris and Tina look at each other for a while.

“Prause, who is this child?”

“One of the other two I talked about.”

“Ah…… Is that so. Did you send me to the inn to bring this child?”

It was a voice that seemed to be mixed with dissatisfaction. The expression didn’t change much, but the tail was hanging down and stiff.

“Yeah. Are you dissatisfied?”

“Oh, no. Not complaining…… Just… Hey, ha, I wondered if we could go together…….”

Iris mumbled. I sighed.

“Don’t talk nonsense. Not even knowing what happened.”

From noble mtl dot com

“…… Sorry.”

“Tina.”

“Yes, yes.”

“Go and wash. The clothes to wear are in this bag. Bring out what you want to wear and wear it.”

“Okay.”

A towel was roughly thrown away, and he stumbled upon it and went into the bathroom.

“Wow… Oh, hot water!”

After a while, exclamations came from the bathroom.

Even if you were clinging to someone, your life wouldn’t be that different from being homeless. He also missed hot water.

I laughed lightly to the inside and lay down on the bed.

“Mrs. Prause.”

“Yes.”

“May I ask about your future plans?”

I almost said out of habit, ‘I don’t know.’ As she spoke, it seemed to stick to her mouth.

“…… Participate in slave auctions.”

“You mean the slave auction?”

“There is an elf to save there.”

A girl who will master all attributes in the future and will be called the Archmage.

Her power was indispensable in a situation where she had to fight demons who freely use magic.

“I heard that slave auctions are expensive.”

“Right. It is very expensive.”

Actually, when I played the game, the final auction price for the third hero was 986 gold.

The unit of money was different.

But it was enough money to earn by selling artifacts. Because there are people who need the artifact right now.

However, the problem was that the auction price was random.

It was stated in the official strategy that it could be cheaper or more expensive than this.

In fact, looking at some posts, some people bought it for 1,201 gold, and some people bought it for 1,392 gold.

I don’t know how many times I’ve repeated this.

I remember being angry the whole time I was playing because the price was updated every time I thought I had saved up all my money.

Anyway, considering the random numbers, the amount I had to collect was around 1,500 gold.

As I was calculating in my head for a while, Iris’ voice was heard.

“…… Was that elf also forcibly brought in like me?”

“Yes.”

The situation was no different between Iris and the elf.

They were deprived of their land by humans, enslaved, and deprived of their right and dignity.

“Why are people so selfish… …. We didn’t invade human territory in particular, and we didn’t bother. I was definitely living a good life. But why do people living well…….”

My heart aches for some reason at the resentful voice. Looking up at the ceiling, I chanted quietly.

‘I’m sorry for being such a jerk.’

“It is all about being human. It’s impossible.”

I felt stuffiness up to my throat.

I couldn’t comfort her, and I couldn’t apologize on her behalf.

I want to ease her mood a little bit, but my mouth won’t allow it. It was the limit of filtering to express it as much as possible.

“I can’t do anything. Do you mean Prause understands the actions of the humans who stole our land?”

I raised her body and looked at her. Iris was wearing her face.

It was to the point where I could see the determination to argue with me even if it was right for me.

Well, with such a tone, there must be a needless misunderstanding.

He sighed.

“…… Humans are greedy. As a human being, if he wants to get what he wants, he will drop others without hesitation. That’s why crime thrives where humans live. He steals to live, and he kills to live. This is human nature.”

I myself cannot deny this fact.

If there were no laws in modern times, if the perception of crime was no different from that in the Middle Ages.

Could Korea really be called a safe country?

“Then Prause-nim also wants me… No, are you saying that the reason you’re collecting us is to get what you want?”

“Yes.”

I do not deny it. Because someday you’ll find out

“What is your purpose?”

“That… …. I will explain when all three of you are together.”

“…… Then just tell me one thing.”

“What is it?”

“Are you going to use us for evil?”

That’s bad. Opposite.

From now on, your job will be to save the world.

“If I had intended to use you for evil, I would not have brought up the story of freeing the slaves last night.”

“… ….”

“Don’t worry. Because the things you guys will do in the future are things that you can confidently carry around with your face wherever you go.”

I’d rather be admired.

Beyond the title of new S-class adventurer, you will receive the title of warrior.

And fighting on the front line, defeating countless demons, and eventually killing the demon king.

Because that’s the fate of being a hero.

“Okay.”

“When Tina comes out, she will go out to eat. Get ready.”

“Yes. Prause.”

* * *

“Wow… Can I really eat it?”

“Yes.”

Look at the dishes in front of you and ask.

It was a freshly roasted turkey. Iris was also taken aback by its size.

“Eat as much as you want. You can order more if you are hungry.”

“Wow! The meat is tender! I think I just made it!”

With meat in her mouth, Tina can’t hide her excitement. Iris sees Tina like that and eats the meat.

“It’s delicious… ….”

Iris’s eyes change as she rips off the turkey meat with her sharp teeth. Covering the corners of her mouth, her eyes shine.

I’m glad you like it. I was worried because the conversation was a bit awkward.

I was relieved internally as I dipped bread into the bland soup.

“You must try such delicious meat for the first time in your life!”

Mumbles and shouts.

“Huh.”

At the sound of laughter I heard from behind, I glanced behind me to see the manager snorting and smiling. A proud look.

I wish I could eat more modestly……. Attention is focused

“Tina.”

“Huh?”

“Noisy.”

“…… Yes.”

To my point, “Huh… ….” He raised his eyebrows in an arm shape and mumbled a little.

It’s so noisy just because one person has increased. As expected, the atmosphere maker of the warrior party is different.

* * *

In the morning of that day.

A time when everyone was quiet.

Tina always sleeps on a hard floor, but she couldn’t get used to sleeping on a soft bed. She was right about not being calm.

A lot of things that had happened in one day flashed through Tina’s head in an instant.

Tina raised her body. Iris, who was sleeping right next to her, also opened her eyes.

There were only two beds, so Tana and Iris were sharing them.

“Prause. Sleep?”

“…… Tight. Late.”

Prause, who did not turn around when his name was called, only answered bluntly.

“…… Thank you for today. For saving me, dressing me, and buying me something delicious. I really don’t think it will be enough no matter how many times I tell Prause.”

Prause listened silently with his eyes closed.

“Can I live such a luxurious life in the future?”

Actually, it wasn’t luxurious.

It was a life that any working commoner could afford.

But Tina felt that she was relatively luxurious because she hadn’t even done basic things that others had done until now.

Knowing that fact, Prauss hesitated inwardly whether to affirm or deny.

“If you prove your worth.”

Then, the words he uttered were words that could not be found without washing one’s eyes.

But Tina didn’t care about that.

She was under her dink who beat herself up and cursed at her, so her Prause-like words could only sound kind to her.

“Yes! I will definitely see you! Good night.”

Tina lay down bowing her head to Prause, who did not see her.
