Never touch Eldmia Egga - Episode 11

News that a hero had been selected by the Imperial Spiritual Assembly spread throughout the village..

The evil demon king will fall and peace will finally return, and they are already preparing a counterattack by gathering the greatest geniuses on the continent..

The light is finally coming back.

But when??

The warrior said he was my age. It would be a truly mythical achievement for a child who has just turned 12 to defeat the Demon King, but there is no sign of that happening..

The reason geniuses were gathered together was to teach warriors. So when does he go to battle??

5Years later? 10 years later? If we have to focus on the hero while enduring that indefinite period, isn't it proof that we can't stop the invasion of the devil's army in the meantime??

What about people like me who are dying in the meantime? What about my parents and my poor brothers and sisters who are already dead? What about the employees who were so nice? When will we honor the souls of the people of the territory whose only sin was to live hard every day??

It didn't take long for the sudden thought to reach there. And the anger quickly cooled in the face of reality..

I knew it. There may be a God, but he will not have salvation for himself or the dead for a while..

If you grow up like this, you will lose your chastity when the captain gets away with it. If the captain dies before that...well, it'll still be the same..

"nice to meet. My name is Eldmia Egar.."

Thinking like that, the days of just living were torn to pieces..

The rare appearance of short black hair resembled the mercenaries and adventurer warriors often seen. The back carrying the sword looked wide, and the man looked large compared to his height. The clothes, which fit well as if they had been tailored, made his appearance look much neater even though they were not flashy. So, despite his thin voice, I just thought he was a short adult..

However, when I turned my head, the face that appeared was quite young, unlike my first impression. 11 years old? 12 years old? Based on his height and size, I expected him to be one or two years younger than the captain, but looking at his face, he was closer to his deceased second brother. What is clear is that he was never an adult..

This is a completely unexpected result. Looking at it that way, it felt like he was not an ordinary boy, but something foreign..

Still, his eyes were extremely sharp. She just looked at it carefully without thinking much. That's why I couldn't properly recognize it until the boy rushed at me for that split-second moment..

"Goodbye now fuck."

It wasn't a shout, it was just a low whisper, but it was clearly audible. The captain, who flew backwards and fell, was killed by a single kick after a movement that was difficult for his eyes to follow, but the only thought that came to mind was that his mouth was unexpectedly foul-mouthed..

It just came. A stronger person just defeated a stronger person. Just like the devil's army trampled on our territory.

It's just that...the leader has changed. He changed from an ordinary strong captain to a captain as strong as a trainee knight in the territory. It looks like he's using an aura, so I guess that's roughly it..

"Would you rather get a chance to live honestly or crawl away as a half-asshole??"

I thought so.

"That's right, bum. It doesn't look like it, so I'm going to give it to you to do some work.."

Something completely different began to unfold.

"Did you see it? Uncle Tex has cut out two more fairy tales for you that don't break the ground.."

"This is Lady Alicia, the owner and chef of the inn where you will be staying from now on. If she has a head for you, she will easily be able to feel her kindness overflowing between the lady's high-pitched voice and her abusive language, so she should always be grateful.."

"If you wake up early, you have more things to do. Places where you work all day have high daily wages, and even if you only work half a day, you can do other things the other half day. That's what I'm going to tell you."

They don't take anything, they don't lay a hand on themselves, and they give something they haven't experienced since they left home..

It took me too long to realize that it was a favor. That's why I couldn't stand it. He couldn't help but ask a question..

"When I was 8 years old, I was a monumental war orphan whose village was burned down, my friends and acquaintances were killed, and even my parents were sent away in the first attack by the Demon King's army, which was the starting point of all these divisions. If you think about it, he's your senior.."

A story about a demon king's army attacking a small village. I'm sure I've heard that story too. The incident from three years ago shocked even my parents, who had always maintained a normal attitude..

I heard no one survived..

"Asilier... I thought that was because I had not met anyone like my benefactor, the elf. I just didn't get the chance. So I'm just giving it a chance."

I almost burst into tears.

The boy was a boy, but he was not a boy. There was no way he was a boy. It is impossible for a boy younger than himself to tell, provide, and understand something that adults did not tell, provide, or understand..

How is that possible? Even though I went through something like that at a much younger age than myself.?

Not a noble, just a boy from a small mountain village?

"Of course, the people of this village are closer and more important to me than you. If you do something like shit or don't think it's going to work, I'll throw it all away and make you disappear. So, I don't know yet whether this is really helpful or not.."

the boy was the light.

It was the real light that shone when I gave up everything in despair..

How desperate have you been?.

When he threw away his pride and pride as a nobleman and lied about his identity as a commoner just to survive. When he was robbed of his daily wages, he gritted his teeth and held on. When he was unable to properly resist the people who interfered with everything he did and prevented him from doing anything. When he killed a vagabond who was trying to rape him by hitting his head with a stone. When I cut off the long hair that was his pride with my own hands and went into hiding. In the end, when he was caught by a guy called the captain and made to stick around like a doll..

At that moment, I despaired countless times. So much so that I wanted to cry and scream, asking how that could happen in such a short amount of time. I screamed inside, please help me..

It was like that.

Just when I was about to give up everything, salvation came really suddenly..

The boy's name was Eldmia Egar..

5He always said that he would become an adventurer in a year and leave the village, and with his speech and behavior that was not at all childlike, he was a celebrity in Ogwen, with far more people in the know than strangers..

It was a light that could never be missed, rebuilding the collapsed hopes that even the warriors could not achieve..

◈

Time passed, the seasons changed, and I turned 14 in these extremely peaceful days..

Yes! I have entered puberty, a time of storms and fury.!

Tsk tsk tsk...an uncontrollable urge is stirring..

"3500 Just wait. It really wasn't long."

Meanwhile, his height exceeded 175. It grew about 5 centimeters a year. My heart starts pounding, thinking that if things really go on like this, 190 degrees, not 180 degrees, might not be a dream..

Even if it was a world with people who used magic and auras, the basic physical strength and weight class could not be ignored. Unless you become a tall monster, every centimeter you increase gives you an advantage in a fight..

And I wasn't just a tall girl. By deliberately loading the muscles through horsepower, the effects of daily exercise were amazing..

The biggest reason why I neglected exercise in my past life was, of course, because it was hard to make a living, but at the same time, not being able to invest a lot of time also played a role in my lack of results. However, training using magical power was addictive because I could clearly feel it every week..

Above all, time was completely on my side because none of the distracting factors, such as a child's wandering, laziness, and urge to play, applied to me..

Although the war against the Demon King's army is not over yet, it has been quiet at least in the vicinity of Ogwen since that day six years ago..

"...LD? You don't just go around picking up strange things and eating them.?"

"Eh? suddenly?"

"No, even if it grows tall like a tree,..."

My relationship with Asilier has become stronger to the point where I call her a nickname..

Since I wasn't farming or settling down, the older I got, the more work I could share with Asilier, and the more we divided the work, the more free time the two of us had. Asilier, who had become a hobby of watching me exercise alone while enjoying the increased leisure time, stared at me with a subtle expression..

"Like a barbarian warrior, my muscles are growing?"

"No, a barbarian warrior? If you possess such a sophisticated and civilized intellect, you are a civilized warrior.."

"The real words are just that..."

It wasn't that I didn't understand what was being said. Looking at my body alone, I can't even imagine that this is a 14-year-old child wandering through puberty. Even compared to a warrior who has gone through all the hardships, his body will not be inferior..

"Where on earth did you find and learn those exercises? Most of the time I see it for the first time in my life.."

"Eldmia-"

"-chance. okay. okay."

Now if you pretend, you pretend. She became cheerful and she smiled and when I went to hug her, Asilier jumped up and down..

"Hey! Hey! I'm sweaty! Wash, wash, wash!"

I was so playful that I rushed at him, but he did his best to avoid me while laughing. For both Asili and I, the shadow in our hearts that arose due to the events of six years ago has been greatly diluted..

It was already time to head to the city, so I washed and wiped myself clean, and Asillie smiled and hugged me. It was surprising to me that she was now looking up at me..

"Now I'm good at elemental magic.?"

"It's all thanks to my sister."

Now I can use elemental magic, which was similar to the trick Asilier showed me the day we first met..

Things that had not worked no matter what until recently suddenly started to work and started to increase explosively. According to Asilier, the human race itself has a low affinity for spirits. After living and sleeping with Asilier for six years, it was clear that the spirits had gotten used to me. Apart from my efforts, this is truly thanks to Asilier..

"well? But that's not the case?"

"Eh?"

"huh. There were often humans who married elves and lived with them until their deaths, but there were no cases in which their affinity for spirits, which they did not have, increased explosively.."

"Maybe I just didn't intend to use elemental magic.?"

"Hmm. After hearing it, it might be so.."

As I quietly look at Asilier in my arms, rolling her eyes here and there as she worries... I begin to pay attention to the elf-specific scent and the feel of her skin! Emergency avoidance! emergency avoidance!

"that! Yes! Hit it! I'll go to town!"

As naturally as possible, I lifted her up by her armpits, spun her around two or three times, and then put her down, pretending to be nonchalant as I put on my shirt and adjusted my appearance. Unlike my clear sense of reason, the corpora cavernosa of puberty does not want to obey the control of the brain at all. Thanks to you, my recent emotional distress is beyond words. The other person is a benefactor and an elf who has lived for 126 years, but no matter how much I try to discipline him, he doesn't even listen..

Taking advantage of that gap, bad Eldmia and even worse Eldmia appeared and whispered in my ear at the same time..

-rather good.

Hehehe. Well, it’s not that I don’t particularly like it, but that’s not it! It's a crime, it's a crime! Are you planning to turn Asilier into a criminal?!

-Sheesh.

The damn bastards clicked their tongues and disappeared. Where on earth is the good Eldmia? I wish you could save me from the sugarcoat of those devils..

Mornings were definitely the hardest time to battle with the lower body. She pretended to be as nonchalant as possible, gathered all her things, and got on her horse. She spoke as if she had suddenly remembered Asilier, who was stroking her boy's forehead..

"Come to think of it, L.D. Did you hear? A nobleman was discovered in the village.."

"Isn’t that a bit of a strange expression? So it was revealed later that he was an illegitimate child or something??"

The nuance is that some dungeon or hidden treasure has been discovered..

"No, literally nobility. I also picked it up through rumors, so I don’t know for sure. The last direct descendant of the family and the only survivor.?"

"Isn’t it just the talk of storytellers? It's just a topic they like.."

"Hehehe. I know."

It's a topic that really deserves a story..

After a few more days, all kinds of stories will be added, such as how the family was not just a noble family, but a famous wizard family, who were called geniuses, who hid until the day they came of age to avoid factions and evil divisions, who will rise up and set the family straight, etc. It's clear.

Maybe it's because there's little content, but people in this world like things that are too dramatic..
