Overpowered Sword

Overpowered Sword Chapter 141

Level up with black hair (141)

It was a few minutes later that Hati, who had been brushing Leon off like he was dry laundry, came to his senses.

Leon, who had been flying without wings, finally landed on the ground.

It was fortunate that no one saw that ugly sight.

“Ugh.”

He stumbled once from the dizziness that felt like a ‘ping’.

The sense of balance I had developed as a military officer was such that I was fine even on a boat in a storm, but Hathi’s shaking was more violent.

Leon, barely able to maintain his balance, looked back at her.

Hati was still glaring with red eyes.

“I will not apologize. “You’ll understand, right?”

“I am truly sorry.”

Leon let out a long sigh and bowed his head deeply.

His molars were ground out from inside his tightly closed lips, wondering what kind of nonsense this was because of the damned magic sword.

[why? A wolf lady’s ballad isn’t something you see very often! Hahaha!]

‘…I may not know about the furnace, but I will definitely throw you in the poop.’

[Is it okay if I just purify it? Do you want me to act as a janitor?]

‘You damn piece of scrap metal!’

When he trembled at El Cid’s cackling sound, Hathi, who saw it, said with a puzzled expression.

“Is that all?”

“yes?”

“I asked if all you had to say was an apology.”

This time it was Leon’s turn to be confused.

‘What do you mean?’

Was there anything more he had to say other than an apology after seeing his attitude that could be considered a disgrace to the beast people?

Leon thought for a moment.

And then he remembered the sight he had briefly seen.

Hathi was seen lying down with her arms and legs up, showing off her white skin along with her strong abs. Since it was right after the duel, he was stained with sweat and blood, but even that was a dizzying sight.

‘ah.’

Leon’s face grew hot as he thought about that.

When I thought about it, that posture had two meanings.

Obedience and courtship.

‘Obedience’, which involves handing over the power of life and death by revealing one’s weaknesses, and ‘courtship’, which shows off one’s charms to the opposite sex, are the same but are greatly different. If it was the latter that Hati thought, wouldn’t it have been rude to just say sorry even though he saw her stomach?

“Ah, so…”

Leon had never spoken to a woman this way before, so he tried to raise his voice as it kept creeping in.

“Yes, it was a pretty and attractive ship!”

“…what?”

Hati’s eyes widened, surprised by the sudden praise.

“The white skin and prominent abdominal muscles are gathered in a round shape, rising and falling every time you breathe, which is truly attractive….”

“Stop that! Suffice! “That’s enough!”

Hati’s barely calm complexion turned bright red, and she covered her face with both palms and shook her head.

Apparently, what she wanted wasn’t praise.

Leon, who made an embarrassing sound due to an illusion that was not an illusion, and Hatina, who hid her intentions for no reason and was hit by a fastball. The two people forgot what they were going to say for a moment and looked at each other.

“…I didn’t mean to ask for praise like that.”

Hathi glanced at him with a strange expression, unable to hide the corners of her mouth that were raised in embarrassment.

“Well, thank you. “It’s been a while since I’ve been coaxed by a male.”

“I think Hathi would be popular among beasts.”

“The males of our tribe have no spirit, so whenever they stand in front of me, they lower their tails and start whining.”

Even so, Leon was convinced without even realizing it.

He was a genius who aimed to become a master at that age and was an orthodox blood relative of the Fenrir tribe, representing the beast people. There was no way the beast people, who had a stronger culture of self-respect than the desert, would approach her carelessly.

“Hmm, I have more to say than that.”

Hati spoke with softer eyes than before.

“You said you were adventurer Leon, right?”

“yes.”

“I will ask you directly. “Are you a warrior?”

“…!”

That question was a real surprise.

Leon’s eyes widened before he could say no, perhaps because the sweet atmosphere had eased his tension.

You can’t cheat.

Because Hathi’s eyes were watching his reaction.

“As expected…?”

She turned her suspicion into confidence and nodded.

On the contrary, Leon, who was not convinced, asked back.

“Why did you think that?”

“It’s because of what my great-grandfather said.”

Hathi explained the reason as if it was no big deal.

“The only person who can truly obey the Fenrir people is the true hero and successor to Holy King Rodrik.”

“That kind of story…!?”

“My great-grandfather was a man who liberated compatriots across the continent together with Saint King Roderick in his youth. “What he said so many times couldn’t have been nonsense.”

Leon also had someone who came to mind when he heard those words.

‘El Cid?’

[I guess he’s the only one. The reason why the Fenrir tribe was praised as the ‘King’s clan’ and the hero who liberated the enslaved beastmen and led them to the steppe. Although he was an immature dog in front of me.]

The first beast king.

He was a leading figure in the liberation war that took place more than 300 years ago and the one who made the steppe a territory exclusively for the beast people.

Beast King Hakapel.

Even Leon had heard that name in history class.

Could it be that he was the prisoner that El Cid brought in as a servant?

“Hehe, then there are no complaints!”

Soon, Hati shouted with a triumphant expression.

“If you are the warrior my great-grandfather spoke of, then you are qualified to become the master of me and the Fenrir people! “Let’s be generous and let it go at least once per bar!”

“Hahaha! “The voice is so…”

“Even so, I saw the belly of a grown girl! “If you don’t take responsibility, it’s truly irresponsible, both as a hero and as a male.”

For some reason, unlike Hati, who was excited, Leon was embarrassed, wondering what if someone overheard.

If his identity was revealed, it would be a big problem.

“Don’t worry.”

It was then.

“We are blocking all attention around here. “From when the warrior and the unknown woman did a couple dance.”

For some reason, Ellahan jumped down from the tall wooden fence with his eyes shining brightly. While secretly relieved by her appearance, Leon tilted his head at the words he did not understand.

“Couple dance?”

“I saw it all! “How can you be so shameless!”

Ellahan suddenly blushed and huffed.

“Not only did you grab the hero’s collar, but you danced so violently. Do you think this is a ballroom? “Both of you!”

“It would be a bit unfair to call being grabbed by the collar and being swung around a dance…”

“Be quiet!”

‘bang!’ The earth shook along with the sound. I just stamped my foot once and the ground caved in.

Hati saw that and made a cute hiccup sound.

The beast people’s sensitivity to the strong must have recognized Ellahan. The strongest human weapon in the history of the Holy Church. The evil cult was also very excited about the being running away barefoot.

“Ella, don’t be like that, just calm down.”

“You’re welcome Karen!”

Fortunately, there was someone to stop her.

Leon also greeted the person warmly.

Karen.

Dressed in dark colors, she seemed to have melted into the shadows and had no presence, making it difficult to notice that she was there until she spoke up.

“sister! but!”

“It’s not a good place to talk, is it? “Let’s go somewhere quieter and out of the way and discuss it slowly.”

“…I see. “It’s just as you said.”

But the atmosphere was a little strange.

Ellahan, who seemed to have come to help, looked sinister, and Karen also seemed even more gloomy.

Hati, sensing an unusual atmosphere, hung her tail and clung to Leon.

“Les Leon. I’m scared. “Please protect me.”

“I’m sorry for not being able to protect you.”

“Hi! “Please save me, father!”

Hati and Leon, who were crying desperately, were eventually caught by them and taken somewhere.

* * *

It goes without saying, but being arrested did not mean being taken to a prison or secret room.

The four entered through the back door of the guild, avoiding people’s eyes, and found a soundproof room inside. We had to be more thorough than ever when talking about ‘the hero.’

Ellahan said as he offered me a cup of tea.

“Now, eat.”

“…thanks.”

Hathi hesitantly accepted the glass.

Although she was a strong woman in the grasslands, she had no confidence in defeating any of the people gathered in this room.

Among them, Ellahan was of a different class.

It almost reminded me of a volcanic crater writhing before my eyes, as if I was watching a natural disaster in the shape of a human being. In terms of power, it was several times greater than her beloved father.

‘Oh, it’s so scary.’

I never thought I would be dragged into such a scary place just because I asked a male I liked for some work, but the outside of the grassland was dangerous.

Anyway, the story of the three people continued.

The story goes that Hati is the great-granddaughter of Beast King Harkapel, who was the squire of Holy King Rodrik, and that the story got twisted because of her martial prowess and her will. He said that he had never danced as a couple and that he had said something wrong and was grabbed by the collar and whipped around.

Of course, the part about making Hathi take ‘that posture’ was omitted.

“―That’s how it happened.”

When Leon finished his story, Ellahan and Karen giggled as their eyes returned to normal.

“I see. “I guess I was overthinking it.”

“See, the warrior can’t be that much of a libertine?”

It seemed like one hurdle had been overcome somehow.

Leon and Hati breathed a sigh of relief almost simultaneously.

Even though it was nothing special, Leon and the others were able to get past the loud commotion and get to the point.

There were two most pressing issues.

That Hati recognized his identity, and that if he borrowed her power, he could seek cooperation from the beast people.

“If it is the arrangement left behind by the Holy King, I agree.”

Ellahan made his choice without a moment of hesitation.

In the Holy Church, Saint King Roderick’s authority was absolute, and his actions tended to be interpreted as positively as possible.

Karen also nodded as if she thought there was no problem.

“It’s the beast people… well, if the goal is to prevent conflict between forces, it would be most effective to make the two forces cooperate.”

Fortunately among the misfortunes, the nomads and the beast people did not yet have a relationship that could be defined as enemies of Cheolcheon.

As they fought over the border area, their relationship gradually worsened, but they were able to cooperate if it was only for their mutual benefit. There will be some level of dissonance, but we will have to endure it.

Leon briefly explained to Hati, who still did not fully understand what was going on.

The strength of the ‘monster’ roaming the great desert.

Nomads who are rapidly running out of food.

The existence of someone who intends to wage war between the two forces.

As his story went on, Hati stiffened his tail and grew more hostile towards the underworld.

“I cannot forgive! You’re causing meaningless blood to be shed! “Isn’t this an evil plan to use us to kill the humans in the desert?”

“It’s just as you said.”

Leon, who had stopped talking while talking, added:

“So, before this situation begins in earnest, we need to inform you of the existence and plans of the manipulative man. “I couldn’t approach the Bedouin people easily, but it might be okay with the beast people.”

“…Right. “Do you want my guarantee?”

“huh.”

Hati seemed to hesitate for a moment, but then puffed out her chest and accepted his offer in a confident voice.

“good night! Let Varg’s daughter Hati guide the warriors. “If everything I’ve said so far is true, old grudges must be a disaster that needs to be washed away!”

“Thank you Hathi.”

“As expected, you are a descendant of someone who served the Holy King.”

“He’s a happy younger brother in many ways.”

As the three people responded to her decision one by one, Hati scratched her cheek with a slightly embarrassed expression. Her hair, tied in a ponytail like a tail, swayed from side to side.

For a moment, Hati was happy about the conclusion that came out smoothly, but she drew her long black eyebrows together and said,

“But keep one thing in mind. I am still only a candidate for chieftainship and have no right or qualification to give instructions to my fellow countrymen or compatriots. “Even if I vouch for your story, there will definitely be someone who claims that it is not trustworthy.”

“Well, it’s something we have to deal with from there.”

When Leon answered with a determined voice, Hati smiled and raised her index finger as if she knew that would happen.

“And one more thing. “This is about what Leon said earlier, but the words about being a hero were not his will.”

“Oh, you’ve always been doing this?”

“When I think about it, that’s true too, but…”

Hati, with a puzzled expression on his face, told the truth.

“My great-grandfather is still alive. So, calling it a will is inevitably wrong.”

“what?!”

Leon, who made a loud noise at the shocking declaration, asked back.

“As far as I know, the lifespan of the beast people is about 150 years, so I heard it’s not much different from that of humans?”

“Just like you said, my great-grandfather was very strong.”

Once you surpass the master’s barrier, your lifespan nearly doubles.

Nevertheless, Beast King Hakapel is at least 350 years old this year. Even the doubling of life span was about to come to an end.

Was that why?

Hati stuttered with a slightly dark look on her face.

“You’re still correcting it, but you’re having some personal problems.”

“A personal problem?”

“….”

After hesitating for several minutes, she finally revealed the truth.

“My great-grandfather has been mentally unstable for 10 years. “There are times when you don’t recognize my face, and when you hear a story, you forget it within a few minutes.”

“If that’s what you said…”

“It’s just as I thought.”

El Cid gave the answer that Leon could not bear to say out loud, in a voice that was even more horrified than that.

[No, that dog has become senile?!]

‘El Cid!’

[It makes no sense that my dog is senile!]

The guild meeting room fell into chaos for a moment.

It didn’t seem like Leon and his group’s progress would go that smoothly. The two people fell silent in shock, and even Leon had a headache due to Hathi El Cid’s screams.

The atmosphere in the room fell into heavy silence.
