Chapter 197: The Pace of Growth
Monroe suddenly felt a wave of emotion in her heart. She looked up at the members of the Greatsword Squad who had made fun of her and Delare, and the corners of her eyes moistened.
She missed such a scene so much. In the past, when she was in the fishing village, she lived with the villagers, and went out to sea to fish every day. Life at that time was really happy.
Unexpectedly, he besieged the Great Sword Squad for a month before, but now not only did they not hate themselves, but accepted themselves and their teammates, treating them like relatives who had been together for a long time.
Monroe was really moved by such a thing.
Before the village was attacked by pirates, she didn't know much about combat. When the village began to be attacked by pirates, the knowledgeable people in the village knew that they had to have the strength to deal with the pirates. Not wanting to succumb to pirates, they trained a combat squad.
However, due to the strength of the pirates, the battle squad that the village had managed to train was completely wiped out.
However, the village did not give up, and a new team was organized to continue the fight against the pirates.
And in the squad that was killed by pirates before, Monroe's brother was one of them. Monroe, who became resentful of pirates, wanted to eliminate the pirates and joined the combat squad training. But in a battle with pirates, they were defeated, and while retreating, Monroe's ship was sunk and she fell into the sea.
Perhaps because of the favor of the sea, Monroe did not die, but drifted to a small island. On the island, she met her mentor, the sorcerer Tussaud, a woman who lived in a cave on the island.
In order to gain power, Monroe sacrificed her faith and obeyed the god of death who lurked in the darkness, and the fallen soul learned the magic of darkness.
One of the benefits of witchcraft is that it can be powerful for a short period of time.
Monroe, who soon gained great power, returned to the fishing village, but it was too late. When she returns to the fishing village, it has been destroyed by pirates. And only a dozen people escaped. The fishing village was overrun by pirates, in addition to this, there were other pirates, and considering the surviving villagers, Monroe used witchcraft to eliminate a small group of pirates, robbed a warship, and took the villagers to find another place to live.
But because she studied witchcraft, she was tormented by the power of darkness, and sometimes she couldn't even control it, and she even hurt her companions. But she was a lover after all, and she could not bear to hurt her companions, and was determined to get rid of witchcraft.
Fortunately, because she had not been studying witchcraft for a long time, her body and mind were not deeply eroded by the power of darkness, and after some struggle and suffering, she managed to get rid of witchcraft. But the price she paid for it was the big black mark on the right side of her face.
She lost her beautiful looks.
Her companions knew that she had sacrificed all this to protect them, and they admired her very much, and they obeyed her in everything, and naturally did not mind her appearance. But when others came to a place to supply the ships with food and equipment, if they saw her face, they would be afraid and disgusted, even hateful, and refuse to give her supplies.
People can guess that such a black mark must be the product of depravity. Even if Monroe has gotten rid of witchcraft, after all, she has betrayed her faith and betrayed her soul, so she should stay away, otherwise she will definitely be contaminated with bad luck.
Many people see Monroe as a symbol of bad luck.
Since she chose to study witchcraft in the first place, Monroe was ready to be abandoned. But when she was really rejected by everyone, she realized that the feeling was so uncomfortable. As a last resort, she set herself a black robe and a black hood to hide her appearance.
As a result, black became Monroe's typical symbol.
For this, people gave her squad the nickname Black Cross.
Therefore, the title of the black cross was not given by Monroe herself, but by others.
When she found Blue Sky Island, she thought she could capture it. Because she thought that the big sword team on Blue Sky Island was a pirate who did evil, she showed no mercy. But after the attack, she realized that the team members of Blue Sky Island were well-trained, unlike the usual scattered pirates.
For this reason, she besieged Blue Sky Island for a month but failed to capture it, until today she was defeated.
However, despite her defeat, she got to know the lovely people of the Great Sword Squad.
"Miss Monroe is domineering, at first glance, I thought you were the boss of somewhere!"
"But you're surprisingly gentle!"
With the amusement of the Greatsword Squad, they not only joke about Delael, but also at Monroe.
Monroe was very moved, she didn't expect that she was not rejected at all when she showed her face. For some reason, the long-lost tears wanted to flow out, and the corners of her eyes were a little moist.
De Laere was shocked to see her like this, don't look at him so beautiful, but he can't stand the girl's crying at all. What's more, Monroe is crying in front of her, thinking about Monroe's momentum just now, who would have thought that she would cry now!
"You...... You...... Don't cry, everyone is glad that you can join our big sword team, and we will be companions and a family from now on. ”
"We are family. ”
"That's what that guy tells us a lot. ”
Delaire tries to comfort the touched Monroe. Monroe looked at him and choked up a little, "Thank you......"
"Oh, no, no, no......," Delare, unaccustomed to talking to girls.
"Oh my God, Captain Delael, you're blushing!"
"Hug one!
"Hug one! Hug one!"
"It's okay if you don't hug it, kiss one!"
“......”
"Shut up, go back, you know, prepare a meal, and entertain these new brothers!"
"Also, celebrate that guy's return!"
"Don't make a fuss, go back!"
Being teased by the members of the Greatsword Squad who were so "rampant", De Lael was furious, his beautiful face turned black, and he shouted at everyone. He was really speechless, these guys, before Aggie came back, he obeyed his orders. As soon as Aigie returned, he rebelled. Whoever you follow is really virtuous! That guy Aiji loves to joke while emphasizing love and righteousness, which makes the members of the Great Sword team like to joke!
There's really nothing Delaire can do with them.
At this time, Monroe tugged at the corner of Delare, and said, "Oh, by the way, you always say 'that guy,' and you're talking about your boss just now? How can you call him that? What's his name? He seems to be better than me, you're smaller, but he's so powerful. ”
Monroe did admire Age. Aegie looks a few years younger than her, but his strength is far above her. Creating a squad at a young age and fighting in this turbulent land is really a hero out of a teenager.
Delaire told Monroe about Aggie one by one. There's nothing to hide, Monroe is already a member of the Great Sword Squad, so Edge is also her boss.
Later, amid cheers and amusement, Delaire returned to Blue Sky Island with Monroe. Tonight is going to be a joyous night, celebrating Edge's return and Monroe's joining.
Monroe is a rare force for the current big sword squad. With her joining, the Greatsword Squad has grown in size again.
Little by little, the squad is developing.
