Expecting to Fall into Ruin, I Aim to Become a Blacksmith

There was history in people, and I remembered those words.

I thought Grandpa Moran was an amazing man, but I didn't know he was someone who might be prime minister. I didn't even know.

It was all important. I didn't know there were so many people who thought of the land of Helan. But now, this is what I want to hear first.

"Does Grandpa Moran still care about Mr. Harp?

"... Yes, of course."

"Yes..."

That's good.

Listen, I got a lot sorted out in me. Maybe Grandpa Moran can save the land, too.

"Grandpa Moran, I mean, tell you what, I'll do the job entrusted to the descendants 300 years from now, okay?

"Discover. My friend Petal and Harp, the prophetic child you two were talking about, I guess it's about Master Kurli. Damn, I had no idea this was happening and that I'd finally realize that at this age. If you're too close, you won't notice."

"It wasn't too late yet... I found out a lot about Grandpa Moran. I want you to see something. Wait a minute."

I don't know, my vitality is getting worse. It's like a fountain full of energy. I found something to show Grandpa Moran.

The letter I received the other day, and the key thing.

"Look at this."

I went back to the library and handed Grandpa Moran a letter.

What was written was what I decided the other day was a joke and left it alone.

"Helanese pinch. Don't hit your hands as soon as possible. In a month's time, there will be a drought! I'm thinking about my hand here, but I can't find a way to open it yet. Lord, be prepared to let the inhabitants escape! Hurry! The Helanese realm is about to lose the curse!

"This, Grandpa Moran said, is a letter from a guy named Petal. I'm sure this guy is still somewhere in Helan, and he keeps fighting."

Grandpa Moran had received the letter and had read back everything and everything in it.

It's not that long content, but it loads carefully and carefully with care.

If I noticed, Grandpa Moran's eyes were moisturized, which looked dry.

"See you again. Oh, this must have been my friend Petal's handwriting. Oh, oh, he was still fighting for me in this land..."

The tears that had been revealed flooded me. I found out it must be tears with all kinds of emotions, like connectivity, happiness.

For a while, immersed in connectivity, Grandpa Moran looked here again.

"Is there anything else? I felt so energetic about the boy who just left."

"There's more! Take this."

After the letter, I handed Grandpa Moran a book.

"Five Magic Books"

"Really? Were you already at the boy's disposal? You've been searching for it for years, and the book was where it should be."

This was something I stumbled upon a few years ago when a bandit entered the mansion. I never thought it would be such an important book for me.

"Thanks to Grandpa Moran, everything up to four volumes is in my head. If we master five volumes now, can we beat this curse?

"Tell... no, in the story Harp told me. No mistake."

"Then not yet! This land of Helan can be saved."

"But there is a price. The boy's life. Like 300 years ago, when Helan offered his life."

"If that's what it's all about, let's spoil it and accept it"

I threw a strong gaze at Grandpa Moran. There is no longer room for debate. He sensed the will, too. All I had to do was act.

"You don't have to worry about the inhabitants. The good fortune built by the boy will protect them. Now, from now on, you can focus on mastering the ultimate magic of the end."

"Even so..."

I looked outside the mansion. It's already only sandy and the dry air is filled. Just being there deprives me of my moisture. No more food. If I suck, I might not survive a week.

"Once a friend, shall I rely on Petal"

I was surprised at Grandpa Moran's suggestion. Somehow, as he realized, he suddenly said that.

It's as if Petal knows all about what he's doing right now.

"Petal is still fighting in this land. Then we have a lot to prepare, and he's decided to be there."

"What's over there?... No way."

"Yeah, where it all started, and where it ended.” Curse Swamp. "He'd be there."

I had eyes that believed in my friends. Grandpa Moran looks young.

Yes, that makes the most sense. Besides, by legend, that must be the weakest curse there is. Then that should be the best part of mastering the fifth volume.

"Do you know where?

"I've been thinking about this for years. You can reach it by meditating on your eyes."

The destination has been decided.

With the minimum baggage in my hand, me and Grandpa Moran traveled.

Dry land is tough on your body. But when I think of the struggles of the first Helan, I feel like it's not even a big deal.

”Curse Swamp”

It was located in the southernmost part of Helan territory.

In this Helanese territory, where the north flourishes, this was a place of development. It was also off the route of the deal, and as we approached the land, the private houses dwindled.

"See you there."

I see the destination. As I told you, green was still rooted there. It also looks like an oasis in the desert. There will also be water. Quick, I want something in my mouth.

Still, ”Curse Swamp” still doesn't look like a place to be called in a scary way. As we approach the vicinity, we find ourselves protected from the intense winds that have dried only here. It can't be a natural phenomenon. Definitely artificial. The curse seems that the magic that continues from powerful antiquity is still in this land.

"Grandpa Moran, I'm gonna get some water. Rest somewhere in the shade."

"I'm sorry. I'll answer the old body. Traveled away. I'll let you wait here quietly."

I left my luggage to Grandpa Moran, got a water bottle for both of us, and walked around looking for water.

Does this land of curses feel like a forest?

It looks like it's covered in trees and isolated from the outside world. Temperature and humidity are different from the dry outside land. With such a clear difference, even the suspicion arises that it is no longer the world.

I haven't wandered around that long. The feeling worked and the water was quickly found. There was a large fountain. Clear, clean water.

I'll take a sip with my hand.

Yeah, it's good. Drinkable water. Then I burst into the lake with every dirty face and drank as much as I wanted. My stomach is tap-taped.

I wanted to open the water bottle, fill them both up, and deliver them to Grandpa Moran as soon as possible. Because I'm sure you'll be waiting.

When I tried to run out holding the water bottle, I felt like I heard a ringing noise. Sound, I guess. Something, but it sounded. I turned my neck to you, which sounded strange, and I looked.

"... Kurli, dear?

The identity of Rin sounds..., there stands one woman, and besides, the person has always been worried, the one I've been looking for. Why are you here? Why is Eliza here...

"Eliza...... are you sure it's Eliza?

"Are you really Master Kurli?

When I realized, I walked over here and there and walked over to a position where we could definitely see each other's faces at the edge of the fountain, checking again and again.

Yeah, it's definitely Eliza.

The dress hasn't come clean as usual. It's an Iris-like outfit somewhere, but the usual glamour has never been lost, and even in a place like this, it has a majestic, usual feel.

Eliza's hand came out and touched my cheek.

And I got my cheek twisted with my thumb and index finger.

"I want..."

"You're not dreaming."

What!? Isn't that what you try on your own cheek? You do it on people's cheeks?

"The fact that Master Kurli is here means that you are still the descendant of the prophecy."

"Why would Eliza tell that story?

"Mr. Petal told me. For a long time, thanks to him. Besides, this is a land that seems important to me, so I helped him."

"So, mysterious men and women, you didn't mean Mr. Petal and Eliza!?

"Yeah, I'm embarrassed..."

Was it? Still, why would Eliza stay on this land and, besides, help Mr. Petal...... I can't believe she was so thoughtful here.

Besides, did you disappear in the King's Capital and come this far by yourself? She, even now, is quite successful. Maybe even the farmer's daughter can do it.

"Eliza, there's so much I want to talk about, so much I need to talk about. But first, let Grandpa Moran deliver the water, because it's going to dry up."

"Yeah, I have a lot to talk about, too. Let's go to Mr. Petal's after this. The purpose should be the same, right?

"Oh."

Delivering water to Grandpa Moran, under Eliza's guidance, we visited Petal's residence.

A wooden house was built right next to the swamp of curses. Legend has it that 300 years ago, the Helans were also building houses here to study curses.

Eliza's voice, Petal's the hallmark of it, be! Become! opened the door of the house with

"Eliza, are you back?

I cared for Eliza, who went to fetch water, and he opened the door from the inside, but there wasn't just Eliza, there was me and Grandpa Moran.

I glanced at Eliza, and then at me, and at Grandpa Moran, Petal breathed heavily and threw up slowly.

"It wasn't long ago that Moran, the best climbing dragon in the Kudan kingdom, left King's Capital. It was a long time ago that an excellent library number entered Lord Helan's mansion. It was long before Harp died. I waited a long time alone. It's late, Moran."

Petal desperately ran out to the end with a trembling voice.

"I'm sorry. I could make him wait till he was so old."

Grandpa Moran's voice was shaking too.

"Waiting for a friend can be bad... Harp's grave will be near here. Are you coming with me?

"Oh, can you show me around? Petal."

"If you follow me"

The two of them escorted them out of the house. Go to Harp's grave. Hasn't it been decades? But they jumped past that blank for the first time in decades, and now they're back together again.

Me and Eliza left behind.

You should be able to go up to the house and talk as much as you two can, but somehow, in this situation, you don't know what to tell me. I wanted to talk to you a lot.

"I'm glad I popped out of the house. We were able to get here and meet Master Kurli again."

"I've been worried sick."

"I'm sorry, but it was an exciting trip."

I kind of laughed because Eliza is so bright in the face. It was my first trip into the box, I'm sure there was a lot going on.

"Will you let me hear it? Talk about an exciting adventure."

Yeah, I don't mind.

In a quiet room, I cleared my ears to Eliza's beautiful voice, and now I've decided to listen to her about her great adventure.
