Heroes Who Can't Fit into the Team and New Encounters

"But you have to be careful, it's not a safe place. Take care of that child too."

"Don't worry. I'll just use this sword in my hand, and I'll be able to... Eh? Huh? It's over!"

Kerr pulled out his favorite iron sword from his waist, and saw the solidified blood and rust on the sword body.

"Could it be that you haven't maintained your weapon? Wait a minute, I'll give you one."

The brave Kerr never maintained his weapon, because his holy sword was always sharp and clean, so Kerr didn't need to think about maintenance at all.

Chloe sighed, trotted out, and trotted back after a while.Her chest rose and fell as she came back, and she could see that she was in quite a hurry to and fro.

A fairly neat sword lay quietly on Chloe's pale hands, and it could be seen that it was a very well-maintained sword.

"……Is it really possible?"

"Well, you saved my life, it's nothing. I never came to tell you, thank you."

Chloe smiled and bent down. Her straight back and upright posture reminded Kerr of those nobles in the Kingdom of Ayers.

Chloe's background should be unusual, and she doesn't look like a commoner in terms of temperament.

"Well, I'll borrow it from you first, and I'll return it to you when I have a chance. By the way, can you tell me where I can forge a weapon. I want to make a sword of my own."

"No need, this is a gift from me. I hope you have a safe journey. Moreover, this is what you deserve. This sword just expresses my own heart."

Chloe raised her head, her golden eyes shone with blessings.

"Well... the reward, isn't it enough to have these gold coins?"

"Soldier, a man cannot go to the battlefield without a weapon at hand."

"No, I mean, Chloe. We'll meet again soon, won't we? Let's talk about my adventures with your sword then."

"Eh?"

"Don't die, mayor."

Kerr tucked the bag of gold coins under his arm, held the sword in the same hand, and held out the other hand to Chloe.

Beef Noodles stood timidly by the side, with her brain still unable to understand what Kerr was talking about.

It is also difficult for ordinary people to understand why Kerr told Chloe not to die.

Kerr used to be a brave man on the battlefield, while Chloe had just experienced life and death a few days ago.Kerr knew that some soldiers would never see each other because of a battle, and now Chloe also understood how fragile her life was on this land.If it wasn't for Kerr's presence, Chloe would have become the mayor's sex slave.Therefore, Kerr, who heard Chloe wishing her a safe journey, also offered her blessings for the other party.

do not die.

We will meet again.

Silence fell in the room where the three of them were, and the next moment, the typical summer rain suddenly fell outside the window.

"Ugh-"

Chloe grabbed Kerr's outstretched hand with both hands, and burst into tears.

That was the moment when she was vulnerable as a princess of the Moon Shadow Clan, and it was also the moment when Chloe entrusted her vulnerability to Kerr.

Chloe decided to be strong.

Even though she knew how impossible it was for her to meet a young man who was on a journey in this vast world, today's agreement would surely become a memory that was sleeping deep in her heart.

The more you are at the bottom of your heart, the more you can touch the heartstrings.

Presumably, after Kerr leaves the office hall with the reward, I will never see him again.

But what happened today will definitely become the food for my growth.He told me that the world has not given up on me, and that no matter what kind of predicament I am in, I can still find a chance.

I need to work hard to persevere in order to achieve a happy life.

Chloe, who was crying on the side, didn't notice that the corner of Kerr's mouth was twitching. Beef Noodles looked at Kerr with a child-like innocent expression, which made him feel uncomfortable.

What did I say wrong?Why did you suddenly make the girl cry?No, no, think about it carefully, I didn't do anything to make her cry.So it's Chloe crying herself, and it's ok with me.Hmm...it should have nothing to do with me, right?Am I taking too much money?This guy, Chloe, probably only feels sorry for money today!

Question: Based on past experience, what should you do when you encounter someone crying?

Answer: If you cry and beg for mercy on the battlefield, it is not impossible to let him go.

When Kerr was fighting, he encountered many ordinary demons.Many of them just followed the order of the Demon King to attack the Kingdom of Ayres.In the protracted and protracted battle, Kerr would not kill all the demons, and he would occasionally show mercy to some weaker enemies.

Of course, if all the demons looked like monsters, Kerr would certainly not let them go.In fact, Kerr would show mercy.The main reason is that demons and humans are too similar.Except that it is easier to learn magic than humans, and the hair of the demons is gray, and the nails of the hands and feet are black, there is no difference between the demons and humans.

On the front line, sometimes they would meet two rational demons, and Kerr would also talk to them.

From what they said, it can be seen that the demons are not very hostile to humans, and the main reason is that the demon king stubbornly attacks the human territory.Now there are many people in the demon clan who are dissatisfied with the demon king, trying to change the situation of fighting for years.

Kerr didn't completely believe in those demons, but Kerr also understood that demons could communicate.

This is why Kerr, as a hero of the Kingdom of Ayres, will not be hostile to the demon Chloe.

Moreover, the Land of Chaos is not a purely human country like the Kingdom of Ayers. Many races thrive here, and it is not uncommon for humans and demons to coexist peacefully here.

"Chloe, you don't really want to fight, do you?"

"... woo woo woo..."

"If one day you really can't do it, you might as well go back to the original point and think about everyone."

"... woo woo..."

"There are a lot of people who don't want to fight but have to fight. I can only tell you, be strong."

"...Ugh..."

Kerr really had no choice. He didn't know the reason for the girl's crying, so he had no choice but to quote what he said when he was comforting the recruits in the brave team.

"Well, thank you, really thank you."

Chloe finally stopped crying, blushing and wiping her tears.

"If you want to chat, I will accompany you anytime."

"Then you should stay and help me read the documents."

"This is something that princesses only have to do."

Next, the two exchanged some trivial matters about Kerr's journey, said "goodbye" to each other, and then separated.

Both of them thought it was a good time, only Beef Noodles couldn't understand the situation, and kept thinking about her "delicious food".

No.16 Different people around the campfire

Kerr and Beef Noodles were in a forest full of monsters.

The current situation is still a bit dangerous.Kerr can't use his full strength now, [-]% of his power is still in the clone, and Kerr now only has [-]% of his power in his heyday.

However, it is not difficult to find something to eat for beef noodles.

The huge tree trunk is like a wall, and the canopy-like canopy blocks most of the sunlight.The surrounding light was not as bright as that of the plain, which was of great help to Kerr and the others.

It is summer now, and the weather is quite hot. Under the scorching sun, the scenery in front of people's eyes will even be distorted.There are these green branches, leaves, and vines blocking the sun, which is much better than being directly burned by the sun's flames.

When encountering difficult places, Kerr will hold the hand of Beef Noodles to prevent her from falling.

Beef Noodles wiped the sweat from his forehead with one hand, while staring at Kerr's hand in surprise.

"It's very active in the forest today, and I feel like I can get a good harvest."

Hearing the howling of wild beasts in the distance, Kerr was in a happy mood.It wasn't his first time hunting. When he was in the brave team, he often went to the forest to hunt and gather supplementary supplies.

"Kel, Kerr."

"Ok?"

"You're not going to die, are you?"

"...Beef noodles, there are delicious ones, aren't you happy?"

"Keer's hand is very cold, like a dead person."

"You said this. I will use magic power to regulate body temperature in the body. In order to maintain the best combat state, the body temperature should not be too high to hinder the battle. Don't you too? It is impossible to shoot steel arrows with your original strength, You must have used magic power and spells to assist, right? It’s not uncommon to use magic power to improve your state.”

"I don't understand. In short, Kerr is a normal person, I understand."

The bow behind the beef noodles is not a real bow that ordinary people can use, but a "toy bow" that children can draw.It is impossible for a real military bow to be pulled away by the slender arms of the beef noodles.Kerr had seen beef noodle archery before. A certain amount of magic power would flow out of the beef noodle body, and with the mantra chanted in his mouth, he could fly out at a speed far exceeding that of ordinary bows and arrows, and the penetrating power was far exceeding that of ordinary arrows.When Kerr first met Beef Noodles, she realized that she was special, because only Beef Noodles used steel bows and arrows.

Kerr himself had never learned magic, but referring to the incantations Madeleine chanted when casting magic, he judged that the beef noodle was shot out with wind magic.

Finally, on this day, two hunters, one big and one small, harvested a huge monster stag as a trophy.

You Kerr acted as the vanguard, wielding the sword given by Chloe, restraining the stag while inflicting damage on it, while Beef Noodles shot arrows in the dark.

It has to be said that parrying the monster's impact made Keer's arm numb, and he also suffered a small injury.

Kerr bled, skinned, and gutted the prey, and directed the beef noodle to clean up fallen leaves and branches on a small piece of ground to prepare for a picnic.

In the evening just after dusk, Kerr and Beef Noodles lit a bonfire, and then built a small fire next to the bonfire that could roast meat, and tonight's dinner was settled.

Surrounded by several stones, there is a log of red charcoal in the middle, and a wire mesh is placed on it, so that the venison can be roasted.

The beef noodles stared at the heated meat, and the saliva dripped down the chin to the ground.The dark red meat is separated by white fat, and the two are combined by the power of nature, and they emit a tempting taste under the modulation of flames.

Sprinkled with salt and spices bought from the small town of Forges, Kerr let the beef noodles go first.

Feeding this cute cat-like girl satisfied Kerr.Although I don't know the reason, it just makes my heart very satisfied.

At night, the bonfire burned the excited and happy face of Beef Noodles red, and also illuminated Kerr's bewildered face.The unique cool wind blowing in summer can easily blow the present people back to the past years.

He quietly looked at the flames that were grilling meat, and remembered when he was still a brave man.

Now, what are they doing?The clone's memory hasn't been synchronized to me for a long time, let's see what's going on with Carol and the others now.

The intracranial pressure increased, and a massive amount of memories poured into Kerr's brain.

"Uh."

With a groan, Kerr twitched like a mouse that had been hit.

"Kel?"

There was a little worry in the beef noodle's tone, if she hadn't bitten a piece of meat and asked inarticulately, Kerr would have been happier.

"Nothing. Keep eating."

Kerr smiled wryly.

The memory passed back from the avatar made Kerr further understand the characteristics of the "double avatar" skill.The memory of the main body can be selectively transmitted to the clone, and the main body can also selectively synchronize the memory of the clone, that is, the clone itself has no initiative.Perhaps it is because of the difference in memory, the personality of the avatar and Cole's main body are already a little different.

From the point of view of the main body, the avatar with only [-]% of its strength left is much weaker in character than Kerr in its prime.
