Why Ignorant Harems Are Dangerous

14 – #04. Eyeless Pilgrim (1)

She dies.

No, it’s been 15 days since you left our side for a while.

Nothing has changed in the meantime.

The series of events was nothing more than a small tragedy that befell me and the people around me, and the world was no different than usual, as if what had happened.

As always, the sun rises and the daily life begins.

I couldn’t move for a while due to the aftermath of the battle with Lauren, but after taking a full rest for about 15 days, I felt somewhat recovered.

Besides, the collapse of the cabin was also due to Mea’s consideration and somehow finding a place to stay, so it was time to go back to our daily lives.

“…… Uncle, are you okay?”

“Huh? Oh, I feel better.”

He smiled while gently stroking Lenny’s hair.

In the aftermath of that battle, there were injuries such as twisting her muscles, but it is truly a magical world. Such injuries could be cured within 15 days if properly healed.

Of course it hurts a little bit, but I can’t rest forever.

“That…… , Ah, nothing.”

“Then I’ll come back.”

She smiled as softly as she could and grabbed the girl’s hand and gently let it go.

Actually, I knew what Lenny was trying to say.

Well, for a few days, her head was so full of depression that she couldn’t even respond properly, so as her housemate, it was natural for her to be concerned.

But I didn’t want to comment on that matter any further.

It remains in me as something that has not yet been digested and continues to linger around like a lump. It was already left as an irreversible regret, but it was entirely a problem that I had to deal with.

“Come on.”

Rather than asking more, the girl nodded her head and sent her off in a low voice, and she nodded slightly to it, put on a cover over her face, and opened the door.

Currently, Lenny and I are staying at a fairly large inn near the city.

That’s why I ran into other people when I left the room, but no one approached me, probably because she was wearing something strange on her face.

I left the inn, slightly avoiding the people passing by.

I stretched out my hand to the dazzling sunlight.

Rehabilitation and all, so I moved only in my room, and after a long time coming out, the sun was so stinging that it bothered me.

Besides, I only moved a little bit for a while, so my body feels stiff.

I walked out of the accommodation for a while.

In the bustling market, there were a variety of people, from vendors selling stalls, to heavily armed adventurers, and workers carrying loads of goods.

A lively street scene.

After all, the world remains the same today as if nothing had happened.

That felt very depressing.

Unchanging world.

It was a bit sad that Neira’s existence seemed meaningless, and her existence felt like something that had no effect on the real world.

No, this is not it.

This sad thought ends here.

The reason she affirmed me until the moment she died probably wasn’t what she wanted. Until the moment of her death, Neira’s intentions, which confessed that she was happy, were clear…….

“It’s been a while.”

When I turned my head at the light tap on my shoulder, the adventurer I saw at the market recently was smiling slightly as he looked at me.

“Ah, that’s right.”

“It’s still a sluggish reaction.”

“Sure.”

Sansis.

He had often partyed with me in the past, and he often appeared in the adventurer’s guild, so he was a man who often took on the same job. He

He And he was one of the few people who approached me relatively friendly.

Anyway, I thought it would be strange even if it was coincidence to run into it right away on the street, but when I turned my head slightly, the adventurer’s union was right in front of me.

Did I already walk this far while I was just walking in a daze?

“What’s up?”

“…… Why?”

“No, just.”

Even though he couldn’t see his expression because his face was covered, he tilted his head slightly, then burst out laughing and shook his head.

“That’s it. Anyway, are you going to take on anything?”

“I think so.”

“The timing was a bit bad for that. The atmosphere is very tingling as if a war is about to break out recently. Thanks to that, the competition has become tight for quite a few jobs.”

I’ve often heard from peddlers that the atmosphere on the continent is strange recently, but is the aftermath so great that it extends to the periphery?

There must be no other territory near here.

“I heard that they are recruiting enlisted soldiers not only from the Empire, but also from the Holy Gyoza.”

“Isn’t that a rumor?”

It was understandable because the empire often went to war, but why did they suddenly gather troops in intercourse?

At that question, Sansis shrugged his shoulders.

“I don’t know. But one thing is for sure, rumors like that are enough to sway low-class people like us around.”

So did he.

Rumors of a war are immediately disrupting the distribution of goods.

Even though we are adventurers, we are practically no different from mercenaries. Even just that alone will hurt our livelihood as the number of customers decreases.

“It’s a little bothersome.”

“Oh, come to think of it, recently a group of pilgrims of s*xual intercourse have come to the city. Do you intend to go there to receive a blessing?”

Blessings of s*xual intercourse?

The words came to mind for a moment, but then he shook his head.

“I’m done.”

“Do you think again? When can we see the f*ckers. I heard that all the people I’m looking for right now are giving blessings, so do you know if anything good will happen?”

Because I’ve been given something greater than that.

No matter how much a pilgrim blesses you, can it compare to the blessings bestowed directly by the holy woman of Holy Grail?

Of course, this was just a pretty distant memory.

“That’s great. It’s the first time I’ve seen someone who doesn’t like blessings. Are you sure you’re a follower of the demons or something like that?”

“It’s not like that, it’s because I’ve received stronger blessings.”

“Huh? What is this again You masked bastard, what were you doing in the past? Did you get a cardinal’s blessing?”

A little laugh came out of that statement.

Would you freak out if I said you were a saint? Currently, the pope has withdrawn from the front lines and the saintess is actually conducting the s*xual intercourse.

“Ah, by the way.”

Rather than that, there was one part that needed to be corrected.

“My name is not a mask.”

“I know. Are you John?”

“…… It was, but not anymore.”

It was a rough name because I had to hide my identity, but now I need to say goodbye to that name.

Because I decided not to back down any longer.

There is a reason why you have to face it properly.

“Seo. Call me that from now on.”

“Huh? What else is that Did you even change your name?”

“This is the original name.”

It is meaningless to just step back forever.

My immaturity was the reason I let Neira go.

Although that karma was a burden that would never be erased, the fact that I could never turn a blind eye to those who were fascinated and the past remained as one of the homework that I had to bear.

“Really? Well then…… Uh, hey! Look over there.”

“No, what else?”

I turned my head at his gesture, and saw a large crowd in the distance.

At its center is the pilgrimage of pure white intercourse.

I didn’t know they were going on a pilgrimage to a city like this, but seeing as many as three of them seemed to be paladins in a group of twenty or so, it seemed that they were more systematic than I thought.

“Hey, are you really not going?”

“I’m done.”

“Really? Then why don’t I go alone?”

Sanchis uttered his last words and dashed toward the bustling crowd.

Blessings.

Of course, if you have the fight against the demons in mind, it’s a considerable ability, but normally it would only have effects that increase your body’s fatigue and immunity.

No, in this world, is that enough of a big deal?

I still don’t know the criteria.

I looked at the crowded crowd for a while.

Certainly, there were fewer processions related to s*xual intercourse in such a remote area, so even though it was quite early, a large number of people gathered and crowded.

Sansis was also trying to squeeze in the crowds to get a blessing by standing near it, but if there were that many people, wouldn’t the group of pilgrims leave for another place before their turn even came?

Somehow, the melancholy feeling didn’t go away, so I wanted to avoid places where there were a lot of people like that.

If there is no work due to the recent vicious rumors, shall we go home early today? More than anything, I’m sorry that I haven’t been paying attention to Lenny lately.

Thinking that, before I turned my head, I met eyes with one of the pilgrims in the middle of the crowd.

Eyes?

No, maybe it’s better to say that our eyes met.

The gray-haired old man’s gaze was on this side, but his eyeballs were completely empty, so it was absurd to say that their eyes met.

It was dyed black and looked as if his eyes had been dug out.

His brows were slightly furrowed, but the appearance of him wearing a white s*xual intercourse outfit and neatly growing gray hair gave him a sense of being holy rather than ugly.

There must be a story behind it.

As I was about to turn my head, thinking it was nothing to worry about, the pilgrim slowly raised his hand and pointed in this direction.

Wanting something, I turned my head, but the entire crowd had gathered in a pilgrimage group, and I was the only one seated at the place the old man pointed out.

Feeling a little uncomfortable.

But that’s only for a while. He soon turned his head and began to bless those around him again, and I turned away too, not wanting to waste any more time there.

“…… Hmm.”

The place where the eyeballs were originally supposed to be was empty and dark.

Is it an illusion that the light was slightly visible inside?

* * *

A place where everything is made of white marble.

The woman sitting at the top of the place was spending the day as usual. She dips her feet in purified water, or sometimes spends her time in prayer.

Actually, all of that is meaningless.

She was tired of the repetitive routine.

Meaningless daily life. The thing I longed for the most has already disappeared, and what remains is just longing for that time and waiting for the day when I don’t know when it will come back.

All preparations have already been completed.

Now, if only you came back, everything would really go back to normal.

She let out her sigh and was about to move her steps.

“…… Ah.”

One of the numerous links that have been connected is illuminated.

There was no way she didn’t know what that meant, so she threw back the expression that was tired of the indolence and complacency she had just a moment ago, and lifted her head up with a tear-stained smile on her lips.

Long wait.

One puzzle to complete it all.

As it was. What she needed the most to keep everything in order, and what she longed for the most.

“Aha, ahahahaha?”

It took so long.

To her, each day felt so long.

But now that wait is over.

“I found it.”

Now there is nothing to miss again.
