We Defeated the Demon and Disbanded Without Any Conflict

34 – insensitive

“I’m sorry… I’m really sorry… I hurt you again…”

Sola muttered that she was really fine, rubbing the burn marks from the past.

For some reason, it seems to be in a more mentally unstable state than the magic runaway incident in the demon world.

It was like looking at a self-defense record when a trauma was touched by muttering that in an honorific way.

I sneakily checked the scar on my finger. A state where there are additional scars like petals flying around the scars that looked like roses.

Seeing that there are so many petals, in the next few hours or so, pain enough to last just barely will come periodically.

I was afraid to say .., but in return, I felt a tingling feeling as if something heavy was stabbing my body.

The pain seemed vaguely bearable, as if walking on a tightrope.

The Curse of Molzin, which left a scar like a rose flower. It’s constant physical pain.

When the curse, which did not even carry Rian’s holy power properly, reached the point where it interfered with the journey, I thought it would be impossible, so I asked Solar to come up with a solution.

The method Solar suggested was one. ‘To change the flow by using up the mana flowing within one’s body to the point of emptying it.’

He said that if the flow of the side effect of continuous physical pain is broken, it will become a special ability that does not match the curse, saying that ‘one-time damage can be changed to continuous damage’.

However, no matter how much magic he used, the situation showed no sign of improving. Now that I think about it, it must have been because the demonic energy in the atmosphere kept coming into my body.

As soon as I returned to the continent, the flow of the curse was broken as if I had waited.

Anyway, because of this curse, I was indebted to Lian during my journey and received periodic treatment.

And the moment I stepped on the continent in a state of self-injury after defeating the demon king and disbanding the party, the effect of consuming the magic power I had worked so hard for so far appeared.

All the magical energy in the body disappeared as if being sucked away.

The oppressive pain that seemed to constrict my body disappeared, but the empty magic power was not replenished, and I became a person without magic power.

I usually tricked others by carrying a potion to recharge my mana, but if I were caught, people who wanted something new would be eager to take a look inside my body.

Just imagining it gives me goosebumps. Well, that’s about when you get caught.

“My wizard, did you have to say sorry like that time again?”

I put up with the feeling of being stabbed in the intestines and somehow smiled and stroked Solar’s head. just like that time

Solar crouched down for a moment at the touch and slowly looked down. It seemed to me to be in a comfortable position for petting.

Perhaps, Solar thinks of me as a little special.

The more I traveled in the Pandemonium, the more Sola’s unique arrogant and arrogant way of speaking decreased, and eventually she showed something mild in front of me.

If you show that kind of reaction in front of me while snickering at other people, you’ll have no choice but to think that way even if you don’t like it. If not, I’ll be a bit embarrassed.

Solar’s ears are red hot and her body trembles. I can’t tell if it’s because I’m shy or if there’s another reason. Because it was Solar who was already full of emotional expressions.

First of all, stroking that bright red, well-managed, smooth hair and small head was not a bad feeling, so I continued to stroke it.

Has your condition improved? Sola’s intermittent oscillations were reduced just a little bit.

In case you don’t know, may I add a word? I don’t know how effective my words will be, but they seem to have some trust in me.

“Our Solar looks more confident, so let’s go back to normal, okay?”

“Yeah.. no, first show me the scars you just had..”

“Then you’re going back? I like going around with the usual Solar.”

After confirming that Solar nodded while showing the top of her head, she showed the place where she had been stabbed and cut. There were no deep wounds left.

Solar, who slowly looked at my body, grabbed my arm and confirmed the place where the curse was buried.

Seeing that the scope has spread like falling petals, Solar raises her gaze upward.

And the moment my eyes met Sola’s prominence-like eyes, Sola’s big eyes began to blur with the oozing liquid.

“Huh… Hmm… Hmm…”

“What? Are you crying?”

Hey, he’s crying. I couldn’t even make fun of it. They went through a lot of difficult situations, but the number of times Solar shed tears was so few that I could count them on my hands.

Even when I was in a mana rush that made me feel sick and my head was full of shame, and even when I walked and fought for 16 hours in a row because there was no suitable campsite, I was a poisonous species that did not let a single sound of death come out of my mouth, let alone cry.

“It hurt… it hurt a lot… if only I could use my holy power…”

There, you’re greedy for sexual power again. Are you thinking of becoming the ruler of the continent now?

“It doesn’t hurt. Did you notice? It broke the flow of the curse. So let’s just stop. Huh?”

He gave me a round pillar like taking care of a baby.

Come to think of it, what I keep thinking of is Solar in the past, who was fighting the devil.

As long as peace lasts, it won’t be good for your mentality if you keep the attitude of the day. Perhaps Solar also has the sensibility of an ordinary person.

On top of that, unlike me, who had seen sights like limbs being cut off or intestines pulled out while touring the continent as an adventurer, it was Sola who was studying magic in a quiet mage tower. It would be safe to say that people have lost their familiarity with wounds.

I waited until Solar’s higgling voice and her flinching gestures, holding back her forced crying, subsided.

About two minutes of sobbing continued, and only then did Solar, as if she had calmed down, roughly wiped her eyes with her sleeve and carefully removed my hand.

“I-I’m glad I met you again…because we got back together before something worse happened.”

“Uh… Bad thing? Suddenly?”

No answer came back to my question. I could only feel a slight weight and a slightly high body temperature felt through the fabric.

Solar embraced me. As if to match the color of her bright red hair and red irises, her face was reddish red.

Solar, who doesn’t carelessly give out even her collar, let alone a hand to others, was embraced by me first.

“Hey, Ron. I want to be with you for the rest of my life, if it’s okay with you.

yes, forever. Because time is meaningless to repay what you have done for me… I want to be by your side until the time given to each other is over. ..of course, if you don’t mind…”

Solar says that while slightly averting her gaze, perhaps trying to hide her embarrassment. It was not that difficult to grasp the true meaning of the words.

yes,

It was an atonement.

No matter how special he treated me, in Solar’s eyes, I was not a person with a last name of Charlie.

There’s no way that Solar could have a heart for me, full of scars that make you frown just by looking at the lump of inferiority complex that leaves scars on your body while bumbling around.

let’s face reality

Solar, who already feels guilty for leaving indelible burn marks on my body.

In such a state, as we acted together today and intuition that I had been beaten and stabbed again, the feeling of guilt inflated to the point where I couldn’t handle it.

Even so, being with me for the rest of my life was a result that could not be achieved without considerable thought.

It was a reasoning that was so clever that I was afraid of my sharp intuition.

Of course, my answer won’t change.

“Let’s talk about it after solving the problem. I stayed still for too long in the Devil’s Nest.”

After I put it off like that, Solar looked at me with a face full of anticipation and nodded quietly.

And at that moment, the inside of the Devil’s Mirror began to shake as if an earthquake had occurred.

It felt similar to when the mobile fortress’ core was detonated. Something that forms the basis disappears and at the same time collapses from the inside.

“Did you break the core?”

Solar seemed to have noticed, too, and sent me a signal. It was a bit complicated in her head right now, so she meant to use the return scroll-Solar prepared it herself because it was not sold at the kiosk.

Considering her reaction just now, that wasn’t a lie. Still, I’m glad I was well prepared. I took out one of the scrolls that I had neatly put in my bag and tore it up.

However, even though the scroll was torn, the magic within it did not activate.

As if the magic contained in the scroll was being blocked, a tingling sensation flowed through the hand that tore the scroll.

..But if you’re embarrassed like this, you can’t say you’re a member of the party that cut off the devil’s head. While maintaining a precarious balance, he looked at the bottom of the labyrinth, not knowing when it might collapse.

Regularly placing objects that allow you to retrace your path is a fundamental part of conquering the labyrinth. The arrangement of the mana stones placed by the shaking of the ground was slightly disorganized, but it was not unrecognizable.

After grasping the situation, I looked at Solar, who was shaking her knees.

“Can you run?”

“..I won’t act as stupid as I did back then.”

Solar returned to her usual way of speaking. yes, you look good like that It was full of meaning and made me smile.

“Ugh…don’t laugh like that!!”

“Huh? Well, it doesn’t matter if you’re ready. If you’re tired, tell me. I’ll carry you.”

“tiring.”

“It’s not time to play around. No matter how strong you are, if you’re in an unstable state to use magic and get crushed by rubble, I can’t save you with my own power.”

“..okay..”

When I spoke seriously to Solar, who said that in an immediate response, she nodded. I think I tried my best to ease the atmosphere that was heavy until now.

We started to return to the starting point, remembering the memory of raiding the labyrinth.

The collapse started gradually from the central point, and as time passed, the speed accelerated, so it increased the speed a little.

For a moment, I remembered Sola, who was struggling in the Demon Realm, and looked at her, but actually, Solar, unlike that time, was following me with light footwork.

Is it because the demonic erosion didn’t happen? I thought, but there was no need to ask, so I followed the scattered mana stones without saying anything.

“I’m no longer physically a burden. There’s nothing wrong with going out with you.”

“hahahaha. That’s true. Our mage’s tremendous physical growth?”

“That’s right. So why don’t you go to an academy or something and go with me…?”

“Well, think about it.”

“You don’t even have to think about it. I said I’d be with you, but what’s missing…”

“No, there’s nothing particularly lacking. Rather, I think I’m lacking.”

If it was Solar in the past, she would have said it out of breath in the middle.

As if to say ‘I’m great’, as I gave a rough answer to Solar who said that, I had arrived at my destination before I knew it.

We flung ourselves through strange grass passages that squirmed and squirmed like they were sick without anyone saying anything.

A slight floating feeling and the feeling of brushing the grass lasted for a few seconds before landing where I started.

As soon as I step on the floor, the solar falls with a cute pong sound effect from above.

“uh?”

“ah..”

I inevitably fell to the same spot, so I hugged the falling Solar tightly to somehow catch it.

Seriously, if I were just a little bit stronger, I wondered if I would break my back.

Uh.. no matter how innocent we are, wouldn’t we be criticized if we made physical contact like this.

As if denying my thoughts from the front, I come out first with Solar holding me and look at the waiting Rain and the others alternately.

and then

“Huh.”

He gave me a snort that didn’t make any sense.

It was a snort, like an insignificant loser.
