Chapter Twenty-Seven: Black and White

"When I see your face, I feel sick. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info!"

The boy lowered his face, no anger, only a little sadness, for he was used to it.

His father had always hated his face, and even more so as to be a person.

In addition, there are other reasons for this disgust, because today is the day of my mother's death.

It was also his son's birthday.

Holding a white bouquet in his hand and wearing a small black suit, he looked like his mother's maid gave a warm hug.

After this, the boy opened the door of his house and, as in previous years, walked to the cemetery outside the city on this day.

It was a fairly prosperous city, and the boy's father was also a well-known adventurer in the city.

His name was not well known to the city, but in compensation, the people here gave him a nickname.

Ugly.

"Ugly" can't describe his face, the contrast between the brilliant blonde hair and the ugly face.

A large black birthmark that he has carried since birth, and a pair of eyes that are black and white......

In fact, monsters may be more suitable for him than ugly.

But even so, he still didn't give up on himself, he didn't resent anyone, and he still spent every day with gratitude.

Especially on the day he became an adventurer, although his father didn't say it, he still sensed a hint of relief.

Delusion? No, he didn't think it was.

I don't know how long time has passed, and the immature boy has begun to have some masculinity, and the things in the dungeon are making him grow up rapidly.

Today, he returned from the dungeon once again, with a happy smile on his ugly face.

He's made it through the first stage!

But he didn't have long to be happy before he noticed something abnormal.

The gaze of others looking at them is still abnormal, but unlike before, it is full of deep pity at this time.

The boy noticed that something was wrong, and he felt a little uneasy in his heart......

He began to run desperately towards the house, and when the door appeared in sight, the smell of blood spread to his nose.

The gates that were forcibly broken, the courtyards that were trampled indiscriminately, the servants whose blood had coagulated......

He pushed open the door like a madman, and found the maid in the midst of the chaos, but her body was no longer warm.

And, as a man, he knows what this disgusting smell is.

Covering the maid's body with a cloth, he walked upstairs.

"Ahh

He sat in a pool of blood, his head crushed in front of him, and his brutally cut body around him.

His powerful father died like that......

Who is it? Who is it?

His heterochromatic eyes had become terrifying, and he had never been so sad and angry as he was now.

From this moment on, without that optimistic teenager, there is one more monster who only wants revenge.

Many years have passed, and the boy has become a man, and he has also bought information about the enemy on the black market.

A squad of adventurers, just reached the third stage, five intermediate adventurers.

He was already a monster dominated by hatred, and the monster found the group one night.

He succeeded, and he killed all his enemies.

The remnants of the magic flame were still burning, and he lay motionless in the flames.

The heart that was originally filled with hatred has now become extremely empty, and he can't find a purpose to live.

The teenager in his memory is no longer possible......

"Captain, there's a kid here who wants to kill himself. ”

"Oh...... Don't bother others to commit suicide, do you know how to be polite?"

"But the captain, he is very distinctive! You see, these eyes are as beautiful as jewels. ”

It's a woman's voice, and it's very nice.

The young man, who was gradually losing consciousness, smiled a smile that he hadn't seen in a long time, because it was the first time that someone had complimented him on his appearance.

The fire grew stronger and stronger, gradually devouring this monster that wanted to find death......

The story that follows is simple, but also full of drama.

"You're dead, and dead people don't need names. So you've just been reborn, so let's call it Jack. ”

It was the first thing he heard when he woke up, from the mouth of Captain Stouts.

He didn't ask why he was called Jack, but the head of the regiment was still very enthusiastic to explain to him.

"Because there are too many cats and dogs called Jack in this world, so ordinary you are very suitable for this name. ”

Jack nodded, though he felt that his face was not very ordinary, especially after being burned......

Later, he became a member of the bottom of Stottes, cleaning and delivering water to the group of bigwigs every day.

The dungeon didn't seem to have anything to do with him anymore, and he had no motivation to move forward.

But fate doesn't seem to want to give up on him yet, so it sends a girl into his world.

"Ahh

The girl exclaimed, she recognized the eyes, she loved it.

Jack nodded, and he knew from the voice who the woman was.

Because that compliment was the first time in his life.

"Intermediate adventurer, you also entered Fairy Tale City?"

The girl is very beautiful, and he is ugly standing here without even the qualifications to be a green leaf.

In order not to tarnish this beautiful face, he did not answer the question, but chose to turn away......

"Hey, I'm asking you. His hand was grabbed, and a voice of discontent rang out in his ears.

He actually kind of wanted to say, "Your dissatisfied voice...... It's nice to hear."

But he broke free from the hand in silence, for he was a cowardly and empty piece of garbage.

Monster? Now he doesn't deserve that word.

I boiled a bucket of water, and then carried it to the team hall.

Skillfully changing into water, he was already very accustomed to this set of movements, more familiar than holding a sword.

Suddenly, he was wrapped in a thick arm, and then the man was smelling him.

"Hahaha!" the captain's laughter quieted the noisy hall and brought his eyes together.

"This little imp actually has the smell of Ellie on his body, and he laughs at me!hahaha......"

The head of the regiment held Jack in one hand and a wine glass in the other.

"Damn, there's a set of ugly monsters! Ellie's little ghost has a unique vision. ”

"Damn, if I were single now, I would have chased Ellie...... Don't, wife, I was wrong!"

...... The whole hall was noisy again, but the topics of discussion became lazy toads and white swans.

Jack didn't react to this, because he was born out of ridicule, but ...... The fist still hurts a little in the face.

He was knocked to the ground, and when he looked up, he saw an angry teenager.

It is normal for a young man with strong blood to like a beautiful girl, and it is also one of his responsibilities to beat up the trash that defiles the goddess.

All of the above are excuses, he just wants to beat up this kind of peer who wants to die.

The head of the regiment knew that there would be another good show to watch, but he knew very well that this group of imps would not know the severity of their attack, so he still opened the forbidden demon realm.

Another punch, and Jack's nose shattered. While the blood was splashing, the drunks watching also began to heckle.

"Ah-Tel, kill this toad!"

"Hell, ugly bastard, you can't even swing your fists, smash him in the face! Don't you hate faces that look better than you?"

...... The atmosphere in the hall is getting more and more lively, and some people even start the gambling game, and of course Jack's high odds are scary.

"What's wrong with this ugly bastard? Lao Tzu is not bad for this experience point!"

Fortunately, there are such fools who want to be philanthropists, otherwise this gamble would not have worked.

Bang bang bang...... With the sound of fists hitting flesh, Jack's face was covered in blood, and his head began to faint.

But he remained silent, like a corpse.

In his blood-stained gaze, he saw Elle walk in, her eyes full of pity and disappointment.

The greatest disappointment was not angry scolding, nor crying, but deathly silence.

Rubbish......

When he woke up again, he saw the familiar ceiling and the beautiful face.

"Come with me to the dungeon, our team is very strong!"

The girl was smiling, but Jack saw the disappointment in his eyes.

He buried his head in the bed, and acted as a turtle with a shrunken head, and he was afraid to see the face again.

The girl didn't know when she left, leaving only a long silence......

Time passed day by day, and he continued to live day after day, dull and boring.

Stouts became the second group to pass Stage 7 after Buryans, adding a new accolade to the team.

But under the great glory, a small tragedy happened at the same time.

Inside that arena, the fragile little priest was attacked and died instantly.

There was not even a chance of treatment.

The people of the West were still cheering for Stottus, but the members didn't seem very happy, especially those who knew Ellie.

Death is normal in dungeons, but they can still grieve.

On the day of Ellie's funeral, Jack sees Ter, who beats himself.

Broken, he fell to his knees, weeping in front of Ellie's tombstone until he lost his voice, and at the same time blaming himself.

Because he was a warrior who swore an oath to protect the team, but he still couldn't keep his promise.

"I love this flag because only under its shelter can I grow up so carefree. So I'll do my best to fight for the glory of Stouts too!"

This was Elle's speech on the previous Thanksgiving Day, when she was standing in the gorgeous lights while Jack was hiding in the corner and heard the words.

The voice that day was different from usual, not so gentle, with a touch of adventurer's temperament.

But he still thinks it sounds good......

It was late at night, and he stood in front of Ellie's tombstone in a daze, his head constantly replaying the girl's words.

Suddenly, a bracelet appeared in his field of vision, and relying on the moonlight, he saw that the bracelet contained two small gems.

One black and one white, like his eyes.

"This was made by Ellie, I wanted you to join the team as a gift, but ......"

Jack took the bracelet tremblingly, tears streaming down his face.

"She has a crush on you, and I still don't understand why...... But it doesn't matter anymore. ”

Ter, who was actually sadder than anyone else, left this oppressive place in silence.

He wants to drink, and alcohol will be the best partner at this time.

As the sun was about to rise again, Jack finally put the bracelet on and kowtowed heavily to the tombstone......

Jack the madman, the ugly monster with strong blood, the irascible toad......

Since wearing this bracelet, Jack has had several nicknames, but he still likes the simple "ugly eight".

After a few years of silence, both he and Ter became the elite of Stouts, and no one dared to call him an ugly bastard anymore.

When the newcomers saw Jack, they had to call "brother" respectfully.

But there are still exceptions, such as the bigwigs in the regiment, or the very hateful regimental commander.

......

Today, as at the beginning of the story, Jack arrives at the cemetery with a white bouquet of flowers.

It was an important day, and he wanted to come here to remember his friends and predecessors who had passed away.

Seeing the familiar names, he could still think of their faces, and those figures who fought side by side.

"You can't have imagined that now it's me, the toad, who is leading humanity to launch a new holy war. ”

He had a bouquet of flowers in his hand, of course, to give to the girl who warmed her heart.

Putting down the bouquet, he turned to the sunlight and left......

Wind Whispering City is very lively today, because there are many guests here, and it is somewhat famous in the west.

The guests in the hall were drinking tea, and from time to time they looked through the windows into the center of the city, where a flag was fluttering.

The blazing lion, its paws stained with the blood of its prey, its gaping jaws as if roaring at its enemies.

Lion Stouts.

The light of the flag is more dazzling than the sun, and everyone feels the glory, which can only be precipitated by a long time.

I also have more faith and courage to protect this place in my heart!

The adventurers had received the news, and the western ones had no opinion, and they agreed with it very much.

In the face of disaster, people can only unite as one, put aside those resistance and prejudices, and fight for the continuation of the race.

Jack pushed the door open, today was the most important day in the whole of the West.

It was completely different from the emptiness of some time ago, and the hall was full of people at this time.

He swept the faces, some familiar, more unfamiliar, but none of them mattered now.

Standing in front of everyone, countless eyes were on him.

But he was still calm and unwavering.

For he has grown up, and in the process has fallen into the darkness, wandering in the fog at a loss, and fighting bloodily in the shouts.

There's so much to go through.

Whether it's wrong, or sad, or something else......

"I believe that all of you have received the news, and I believe that the friends who have come here have made up their minds, so ......"

He bent down and bowed deeply.

"I am grateful to all of you for responding to me, and for reaffirming that human beings are not completely selfish. ”

He looked up after saying this, and at the same time took out a new map.

Unlike the last map of the continent, this time the map only has the west, and many important points are written in more detail, and the location of each gate is accurately marked.

The map is very large, it is spread out and pasted on the wall, and there are many small maps prepared next to it, and it seems that these friends will have gifts when they leave.

"The strength of the adventure party stationed in each city is different, so we have to ......"

He began to speak out his plan, and several of Stouts' members walked in to assist the leader in his tirade.

One woman caught the attention of the adventurers, because the Medal of Glory was so dazzling.

In addition to being surprised, they are also happy, because with such a strong mage to help, their chances of victory can be much greater!

......

Recently, Huasu has been very busy and serious, but even this thing always goes wrong.

Because he was never a qualified regimental commander.

But fortunately, there are many companions who are assisting him, and the name of Beryans still has unparalleled influence.

All the adventuring groups in the north came to Yusai Castle and made their thoughts clear.

This program, they join!

The formation of the Northern Army was simpler than everyone thought, and it was also thanks to that banner.

In the last holy war, if there was no Beryans to take the lead, the human race would not have survived the difficulties, but the ending would have been tragic I don't know how many times.

The golden sword on the banner is still glinting, vowing to lead humanity through this difficult time again.

......

The formation of the other two legions was not so easy, full of twists and turns.

But the sheer strength, coupled with the temporary unity of the people, stumbled to an agreement.

And poor middle, at this time, people are still thinking about who will be the boss.

The gates of Reims City flickered, and the ravens who had been away for a long time returned!

"Hmm...... It's still the air in this world. Charlotte breathed greedily.

At this moment, several members of the group who had been waiting for a long time walked up and reported on the recent events on the mainland.

The more Charlotte listened, the stronger the smile became, she didn't expect to prepare for the battle as soon as she came back, and she was really a little perverted and happy.

The so-called life is only interesting when it is so exciting!

What's the next step? Rest?

No, rest is better left to the dead, she's going to compete for the position of boss!

She's a newcomer who wants to make her name in this war.

Later on someone will mention this history, if that's how it began......

In the middle of the continent, Charlotte Lance served as the commander of the legion, and performed well, successfully killing ......

Although this is just a dream for her who is not at the top of her strength, the more she thinks about it, the more excited she becomes!

She's dying, the demonic blood in her body is boiling, and she really wants to fight!

Maybe she heard her shouts, and the dungeon gave her enough face.

Everyone in Reims City looked up, both civilians and adventurers looking into the distance.

A few wurms are hovering in the sky, and the magic elements are starting to go berserk, and they want to give the humans a little color!

Coincidentally, humans think the same way.

The sky darkened without warning, and the wurms noticed that something was wrong, and the magical elements didn't listen to their control!

Boom! A huge explosion sounded in the air, and the people below invariably covered their ears and had a hint of horror in their eyes.

The furious magical elements exploded in the sky, and a huge fireworks appeared in front of everyone's eyes, and the dragon's blood added a different color to the fireworks.

Three wurms lost their lives under this cannon.

After a brief panic, everyone looked at the city walls.

On the city walls, members of the city's new force, the Crown of Thorns, are staring at the wurms.

And next to them, there were fragments of a large cannon, and black smoke was still emitting.

Wood is also distressed about this, and now he can fire magic cannons, but before the first shot is finished, the cannon body will fall apart first.

It was hard, but he felt he could find a workaround.

A confident man is really handsome, especially when this man is still bathed in dragon blood.

Many of the little girls in Kiel City are hooked on Wood at this moment, and the so-called dream girl is like this.

The remaining two wurms were also easily eliminated by Harry, but unfortunately he was not handsome, and he was not as good at pretending as Wood......

There is another important thing, and that is that the central part of the country, which has been stable, has also begun to be invaded, and fortunately they have been prepared for it for a long time.

But before the adventurer's breath was released, another more terrifying enemy had already appeared.

Huge bodies floated in the air, sunlight completely obscured by black mist, and the giant scythes had icy flames on them.

Wood swallowed, cold sweat soaking his back instantly.

Because this is a real demon!
