Chapter 39: Kneeling
Hermes is the god of commerce and travelers in Greek mythology, mainly the messenger of the gods, one of the twelve main gods of Greek Olympus, the son of Mea, the daughter of Zeus and Atlas, and Rome is also known as Mercury. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info was born in a cave in Arcadia, and was the first god of Arcadia. After the unification of Olympus, he became the god of animal husbandry and the messenger of Zeus. He was also regarded as the protector of travelers, the patron of merchants, and the god of eloquence. Legend has it that he invented the ruler, the number and the alphabet. He was clever and cunning, and was regarded as the creator of the art of deception.
Well, Su Mo has never felt that this god is not a reliable guy, such as this thing once stole Zeus's scepter, Poseidon's three-strand fork, Apollo's golden arrow, Artemis' silver bow and Ares' sword - well, if it was stolen by himself, Su Mo said that he could beat the girl and now the grave is green.
Although I don't know what the Hermes of this world is, since he has this name, Su Mo instinctively feels that this product is probably not a good character.
However, such a slightly heavy topic about the previous practices of the gods soon ended, and Su Mo's interest quickly shifted to Bell's battle itself, although it basically had nothing to do with Bell himself.
"In other words, in the rumors, there seems to be a masked female adventurer with a mysterious identity and a strength level estimated at lv.4. It is said that during the battle, the adventurer dragged Goliath with his jaw-dropping, incantational ability to chant spells in high-speed combat, creating valuable conditions for a certain rabbit to use the magic sword and skills........ You're pretty good. ”
Su Mo said with interest.
"This....... It's just a battle instinct that I once had, and the fact that I'm not the opponent of the mutant floor master is too tricky. ”
Ryu shook his head, his expression was a little bitter - Su Mo could see that it was not because of his lack of combat ability, because he had already felt it, and this elf named Ryu seemed to always have an evasive attitude towards things like fighting.
It's not because I'm afraid, but it's just a simple avoidance........
In addition, he is obviously such a powerful elven adventurer, but now he works as a waiter in this small tavern....... Tsk, how wrong you think.
"Ryu--Did anything happen to you before?"
Su Mo hesitated, but slowly spoke.
"Huh?"
"It's not right to think about it, right? Since you can become Lv.4, it means that you are not bad at talent, and you are not averse to taking risks - otherwise you would not have followed Hestia and them to rescue Bell so easily, I don't believe you didn't go there on your own initiative. But why are you just staying here silently and being a waiter? ”
Su Mo has never understood what it means to knock on the side.
“....... You're really, directly. ”
Ryu smiled wryly: "The reason why I went to save Bell is just because I think that child is like my brother, and there are few adventurers who are so kind and innocent." ”
"Hmm."
Su Mo nodded seriously, his hands were still unconsciously rubbing Riveria's long hair - just get used to it, he liked this similar feeling very much, because it used to be Esther's child lying in this position.
"Would you like to hear that? One, the story of a clan that has perished. ”
Then, speak slowly.
...........................
Ryo Leon, who had been a well-known adventurer in Olari a few years earlier.
Lv.4 level,A difficult skill that can chant magic while fighting.,It's an elf girl called the wind.。
She was deeply proud of her family - because they were the "knights" of Eulalie. Because the main god is Astraya, the goddess of justice, every member of the clan follows and loves fairness and justice, and this clan is like a clear stream flowing in this mixed adventurer city of Olali.
And what is different is always in the spotlight.
It may be envy, but more likely it is jealousy.
Those who have been filthy for too long will not desire to mingle with Qingyan, and the family who loves fairness and justice has finally been ambushed one day - the entire family has been wiped out.
Oh no, it's not all destroyed, because there was one adventurer who survived in the end.
She's Ryu.
So the flame of vengeance rose and burned in his chest, and after persuading his main god to leave Eulari, Ryu began his revenge.
And rightfully so, she succeeded.
All those who participated in the framing of her family died cleanly, like droplets of water that fell on an iron plate that had been scorched by the flames and turned into wisps of green smoke and disappeared.
It's a memory that can't be called pleasant.
"Naturally, I got on the guild's blacklist after committing such an act, and although no one came to hunt me down, I was no longer an adventurer, and then Hill brought me here."
Ryu finished everything in a flat tone, without hatred or sadness: "Although it was really not a habit at first, a few years have passed, and now I think it is actually a good choice to live quietly like this." ”
"yes......"
Su Mo nodded--there was no regret for mentioning other people's sadness, but with a little relief in his heart.
After all, Ryu was one of the few people he had a close relationship with in this Eulalie, at least he didn't have to worry about her encountering something bad because of some kind of dark memory, right?
In the end, there was a slight relaxation on Ryu's face, which seemed to have been tense all along:
"I buried the relics of my companions on the eighteenth floor, because it was the most undisturbed and most suitable place to sleep, and they liked that place the most."
"I'm going to love it."
Su Mo smiled.
"Then Mr. Su Mo, I'll step back first, and the store still needs me to help."
The atmosphere was quiet for a while, Ryu said.
"Go, I should take her back too."
Su Mo motioned to her for Riveria, who was still lying on his lap - without the slightest of his usual seriousness and majesty.
"Oh yes, Ryu-"
When Liu Chao Su Mo bowed and was about to leave, he suddenly stopped the other party as if he remembered something.
"Huh?"
He tilted his head slightly, and his pointy ears fluttered in the air.
"After that, let's go to the eighteenth floor to worship once, and sleep there, your friends."
Gentle expression.
"Well, thank you."
Although he had already looked down on it, when he spoke, Ryu's voice still trembled slightly. (To be continued.) )
