Reborn NPC: I'm really not the protagonist!

When the players arrived at the center of the battlefield, there was already no sound.

Three hours of rushing, eighteen levels of [Bloodiness], and too many levels of rage to count, more than doubled Hill's attributes.

There were orcs' broken limbs and blood everywhere. She knelt silently in the middle of the battlefield, staring at the long sword and shield lying quietly on her legs...

[Introduction: "How can I gain His favor? Am I not doing well enough?"]

"........."

She didn't know why she felt so uncomfortable at this moment...

I've already experienced it once, why is it more uncomfortable than the last time, even... scary...

At this moment, scenes of memories penetrated my mind like bullets.

[Uh... no...]

[I heard that you and that priest....]

【Do you think it’s fun! ? 】

Those ordinary scenes, Fina's reserved look when facing her suitors, her serious look while pretending to chat and gossip, her look of angrily lecturing her group members...I can't get rid of them at this moment!

[This is her trial, it's her god, she doesn't want you to participate, it's not my will.]

A will that tried to calm her emotions quietly descended.

There is no need to explain what the gods did, just like the guardian god, who was clearly watching Fina the whole time, yet pushed her to death without hesitation.

This was Fina's trial, and the invasion of Qiongnu was not at all his intention, but... he did come forward to help get Hill away. After all, in his opinion... this was indeed very important for Fina's growth!

The road to becoming God's chosen one is not so pleasant. The appearance of each God's chosen one is an adventure with a chance of death. Fina's God created this opportunity for her, but... she did not pass it.

But Lu still cared a little. He was afraid that Hill didn't understand God's way, so he chose to descend.

"........."

However, Hill remained silent for a long time before slowly looking up.

【Give that bastard my regards.】

[....Which one?] After hearing Hill's response, Lu was obviously stunned for a moment before asking curiously.

[Both together!] Hill gritted his teeth and replied.

【……】

Lu was silent. He naturally knew the two people that Hill was talking about. One was Qiongnu, and the other... was... the Guardian God himself!

Fortunately, the Guardian God... He can still hold on. He must be more careful in the future and not let Mu's people clash with this guy...

【Okay.】 He agreed, and his will immediately dissipated.

"........."

Hill looked at the curious eyes of the players around him and sighed.

Next, is the thing I dare not face the most...

For a moment, she even wanted to run away, to change places and start over.

She didn't know how to face Knimu and the others, how to tell them about Fina's death.

However...it seems that she doesn't need to think about this issue anymore.

Because Knimu...has arrived.

"Captain? Captain!?"

Amidst the corpses scattered all over the ground, she rushed out from behind the forest in the distance, looking around and shouting in panic.

"Captain! Fina!?"

"!!!!!!"

As she shouted, she was shocked to find several familiar faces among the corpses. In an instant, the pupils in her red eye sockets suddenly contracted.

"Fina!!! Fina!!!"

She yelled anxiously, and the next moment, she burst into tears again, wiping her tears continuously, and squatted down in fear: "Wow... Where are you? Where are you?... I'm scared! Wow!!"

But...crying, which always worked in the past, no longer seems to work.

No one will ever make the familiar and helpless sigh, then come forward and let her cheat, watch her burst into laughter with a smile in her eyes, and cunningly declare another victory.

"Knimu! You..."

“Oh my god…”

The people who caught up with them were also stunned in their places, looking at the tragic battlefield, and couldn't help but exclaimed...

"Ms. Knimu, stop....Hill!"

Another person came. Alice just came behind Knimu, but in the next moment, she looked at Hill in the center of the battlefield in horror and rushed forward.

"Oh my God....Hil, Hil? What happened to you? Are you hurt?"

She knelt in front of Hill and kept checking her condition.

Alice's exclamation also drew the attention of Knimu and the others.

"Hill, the captain..." Gordon ran over first. Just as he was about to ask something, he paused a little when he saw the sword and shield on Hill's legs. Then, he stood there in disbelief:

"No... This, this is impossible..."

"Eh? Knimu! Wait..."

Suddenly, Knimu, who was squatting on the ground crying, also saw Hill, and the next moment she walked towards her without hesitation.

Judd beside him suddenly panicked and tried to stop the other party. God knows what Knimu would do at this time.

"Ms. Knimu, please calm down..."

Alice also saw the other person, and immediately stood up and stood in front of Hill, wanting to comfort him.

"........."

Behind him, Hill stood up without saying a word, holding Fina's sword and shield. He was silent for a while, walked around Alice, and came to Knimu, without saying a word from beginning to end.

"They are more valuable in you,"

Surprisingly, Knimu just sniffed and pushed them to Hill, then slowly said: "What should we do next?"

"........."

Hill still didn't respond, but just lowered his eyes heavily.

The suffocating feeling of failure made her feel overwhelmed.

Knimu's uncharacteristic behavior made it even more difficult for her to bear!

Is it really right to do this now? Isn't it just wishful thinking? I didn't exist in the first place, so nothing will change, right?

Fear....

She had never felt so scared, so scared that she dared not make a choice...

The reality of this world made her feel fear for the first time. Responsibility, life and death broke her last line of defense as a "player".

At this moment, she finally realized that this world was no longer a game for her...

Why did the sister who was still chatting with me yesterday die just like that? Do those orcs she killed have families too? Why did they fight to the death?

Mother....

"ah!"

She suddenly raised her head and forced Fina's sword and shield into Kneem's arms, then hid behind Alice and rested her head heavily on her back, which scared Alice.

"...Hill!" Knimu stared blankly at the sword and shield in her arms, gritted her teeth, and raised her head suddenly: "Why are you hiding?"

"........."

"Speak up! Tell me, what should I do next?"

"........."

"Why would you be a coward at a time like this? Hill! I..."

"Okay, Miss Knimu, let Hill take it easy. She might be tired..."

Knimu shouted angrily, but was finally stopped by Alice. She glanced deeply at the figure hiding behind her, then turned and left with Gordon and Judd.

And Hill always hid behind Alice without saying a word...
