Chapter 76: Shellfish necklace
This chapter is updated by Wuxia.Blog
Leaving the hero academy I found Sasha standing by the side of the gate.
“Were you waiting for me Sasha?” (Arnos)
Upon hearing my voice she turns towards me with a smile but she appears to change her mind and starts glaring at me instead.
“I wasn’t waiting for you. You were so slow I wondered if something had happened and came back.” (Sasha)
“You were worried about me?” (Arnos)
“What are y…..” Sasha stopped and thought about what she was saying and started again “I was wondering if you’d killed them all before the academy exchange had even started.” (Sasha)
I laughed.Even I know that much.
“Even though we are told that this exchange is to learn each other’s magic methods its main goal is to foster friendship between Deiruheido and Azeshion which would be very difficult if you go rampaging like you do in Deruzogedo.” (Sasha)
“The other side doesn’t appear to know that.” (Arnos)
As if losing her momentum Sasha falls silent.
“……Certainly, given our histories together I wonder if we can become friends……” (Sasha)
When I start walking Sasha starts walking next to me.
“Well, like I said earlier its only false history that the hero Kanon defeated me that’s been passed on. It’s probably premature to think that all humans are hostile to the mazoku.” (Arnos)
“Why?” (Sasha)
“The uncontrollable and unimaginably powerful demon king brought peace to the world on a whim. The humans can’t forget their fear of the demon king with that story since if he reincarnates he might decide to destroy the world on a whim this time.” (Arnos)
Sasha nods.
“Even if he knew it was a lie did the hero decide to say that he did to reassure the people?” (Sasha)
“It would be the best thing to do. It’s a true fact that the demon king of tyranny did die after all. Besides, even if your enemy who committed all kinds of atrocities said he wanted peace few would believe it.” (Arnos)
That’s why the great war started 2000 years ago. Grudges on top of grudges swirling together before finally overflowing. I hated it.
“They strongly believe that legend that’s been passed down and since they believe themselves to be descendants of heroes as well it’s obvious they will have a strong opinion of the mazoku. It’s pretty adorable actually.” (Arnos)
“And who was the one who childishly hit that human who was trying to appear clever a while ago?” (Sasha)
Sasha stares at me.
“I was only playing with him. It was cute.” (Arnos)
“……….Ahh….I see. Giving people lifetime traumas is cute……” (Sasha)
He seemed fine about it. There’s no need to worry.
“Apart from saying that friendship is not the goal what else did you find out?” (Sasha)
“Nothing I can understand and the mysteries have increased.” (Arnos)
“Okay?” (Sasha)
2000 years ago the hero Kanon was killed by humans.
