Chapter 131: The Past
"I'm sorry, it's really a subordinate gaffe, I'm tired of you listening to these frivolous complaints, Lord Eshuiin. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info"
After a short pause, Paul sighed for no apparent reason.
Recently, he has also been engaged in high-intensity battles in the arena, even if he doesn't say it, he will be a little physically and mentally exhausted, and the rare rest time has just begun, so he completely bid farewell to his past identity.
In such a high-pressure living situation, it is human nature to be a little overwhelmed.
"You should have a good rest recently, after all, you will be fighting Raymond soon, and you need to recuperate. If something happens, we'll take care of it, and we can't always leave it to you. ”
"Understood, Lord Eshuin, then without further ado, let's continue our journey to the Adventurers' Guild. ”
Shaking his head and lifting his spirits, Paul once again put on the same grim expression he had always maintained.
Intelligent beings will always have all kinds of troubles.
I may think that apocalyptic things are just meaningless things for Paul, but like me, it is better to let time give him answers than to interfere with the state of other people's lives with his own worldview.
It's also a little embarrassing to always throw things about the battle to Paul, so let him rest properly during this time.
"My advice is not to take it too seriously, after all, I am a person who is very adaptable. When I was still in my native country, it was common to stay up late to make a living, and I often lived a life like an undead in shifts day and night, but I still survived. ”
"Oh, I see. ”
Just as we were about to set off, Paul paused slightly, as if he wanted to ask something.
"What's the matter, do you have any questions for you?"
"So, what was your original world, Lord Eshuin, like? Judging from the fact that you often complain that life in the Demon Realm is very backward, it seems that it is a country with a lot of handy magic items. Can you tell us about the journey to the Adventurer's Guild?"
Hearing my words, Paul also nodded slightly, and continued to say in confusion:
"Is it like the ancient magic empire with abundant research on magic power and advanced magic technology as recorded in ancient books? ”
What kind of life are you living......
On the way to the local adventurer's guild in Lixel, I couldn't help but reminisce about my previous ordinary life.
At that time, I was so busy worrying about rent and food that I couldn't have imagined walking down the streets full of undead and orcs or demons like I am now, and talking to knights who often accidentally knocked their heads off.
Now that I think about it, is there any real difference between the original world and the other world?
No matter what world you are in, you need to run around for life and work, but for ordinary people, if you want to say that it is dangerous, the living environment in another world may be more cruel.
But in this way, there are still creatures like undead in this world, and theoretically there are many immortal and undead creatures.
If you have to say it.
There are magic and magical beasts in the other world, and intelligent creatures can obtain physical fitness and powerful special abilities far beyond those of special forces through cultivation.
As long as you become stronger, the age at which you can survive will gradually increase as your strength increases, and there are even cheats such as reincarnation spells, which are undoubtedly much kinder to people at the top of the social pyramid.
In the final analysis, it's all a world of the jungle, and the law of survival of the fittest is universal.
"The original world...... It's a world where there's no such convenience as magic, and you have to do everything yourself. ”
"Eh, you don't even have magic!?"
I put my hands on the back of my head and said this as I walked side by side with Paul.
Suddenly asking such a question, much like a conversation with a friend on the way home after work, I became a little sad, and I couldn't help but look at the strange races of people coming and going on the streets.
It is precisely because of the lack of magic that the technology tree that seems almost unbelievable in the other world has been created.
I guess it's a bit arrogant for me, who has not contributed to the development of science and technology at all.
Although it seems that the original world is more developed, whether it is air conditioning or airplanes and trains, similar alternatives can be found in other worlds, so theoretically, the civilizations on both sides have their own advantages and disadvantages.
But I'm just a cocoon dweller who usually carries my own room, so I don't seem to have much to say......
That's right.
"Well, there's no magic. But there is a network that is more magical than magic, and I am a king summoner in my original country who is admired and envied by countless young people. ”
"Ho Ho ......! You can use the summoning technique without magic, and Lord Ashine, you are still the banner man of the younger generation. ”
Paul repeated it again as if he had heard something incredible.
Although I have guessed it for a long time, the people of this world really don't understand the meaning of the online world.
"If you really want to say it, it's the group of strong people at the top. My peers call me "Reliable Thighs" and "Big Guy Who Anytime I Log In...... It is often necessary to hunt powerful beasts, even dragons and monsters stronger than dragons. ”
"Eh, even dragons .......! And creatures that are more powerful than dragons, have you ever been such a strong man, my lord!"
When I said this, Paul looked like this, and sighed in surprise.
It feels like it's blowing a little too much......
"I haven't seen much of your actions during this time, Lord Ai Xiuyin, and my subordinates thought that your strength was not as strong as your subordinates imagined. But your words do reveal confidence and nostalgia, I didn't expect you to just hide your strength. ”
Then, as if he had been embarrassed, he sighed as if he had been hit by something.
"I'd love to see it when I have a chance. ”
Looking at me with admiration, I took the initiative to speed up my pace because I was a little weak-hearted.
Why am I so dead to save face!
"It's not a summoning technique, but it's okay if you understand it that way. It doesn't really matter, I'll tell you about the rest, and the other thing is that communication in our world is very ......!"
Paul, who was looking at me expectantly, was immediately attracted by the insights he used to change the subject.
When I was a little glad that his attention was attracted and I racked my brain to think about my past life and introduce it to him soon-
"Lord Eshuin, you've been here!"
As if out of breath, a girl's voice came from behind us.
When we heard the voice, Paul and I looked towards the source of the voice.
"Well, why are you here, didn't I tell you you to go back after that thing, and what about your brother Sokate, haven't you always liked to be together?"
Nia, who was probably a little pale because she had been running, ran not far behind us.
…… I remember when Melia was about to make a move, she took advantage of the chaos and left with the gangsters, and there was nothing to rely on the thieves to deal with, so why was she here?
"Eh, brother, brother, he has some things to deal with...... Can I act with you, Lord Eshuin?"
After responding casually to my question, Nia asked Paul in an inquiring tone.
Rather, she had been facing Paul since she had just run over, as if she had completely ignored my presence.
And even the name has been changed, is it because I let her be a bait and be angry......
"Nia, you've been a little weird since you started, haven't you always called me boss? I'm a little sorry to suddenly let you do the bait, so don't talk to Paul like that, don't you see he's bothered. Forgive me if you have something to eat another day. ”
"Well, Nia you'd better correct your attitude towards adults, or you'll bother me a lot. ”
As I apologized to Niya, Paul chimed in.
"Huh...... Hmph, okay. Then forgive you, Boss Ashin, brother, he's very busy, so let me come here first to see if there's anything I can do to help, and then, where are we going next?"
After resting for a while to take her breath, Nia asked very seriously.
"There's nothing to do, if anything, let's try our luck at the Adventurers' Guild and see if we can get some information. But what we're going to do next has something to do with your group of thieves, so it's better for you to come along. ”
"Oh, the Adventurers' Guild, it seems to be down the street in front, so let's go, boss. ”
As she said this, Nia seemed to walk ahead of us expectantly, humming an unknown tune and starting to lead the way.
