My Death Flags Show No Sign of Ending
102 stories
An empty liquid splashed from a crushed container. It falls according to gravity and is ruthlessly sucked into Fincent's mouth - it never did.
"Gu......"
Fincent's face distorted into agony, groaning small.
A slight pearlescent color, mixed with the blue that danced in the air. It was released from Fincent's right hand, which grabbed the container. The identity is blood.
Harold's eyes, unable to act immediately but thus concentrated to the extreme, captured everything that had happened. The moment a single arrow flew in from behind Harold wore Fincent's right hand.
Who packs the distance before thinking.
Just one more blow. No matter how much damage Fincent acts in disregard of, there is a limit to its tolerance. Damage is now accumulating, and Astralpotion should have been the back hand to ignore it even further. Then Harold just squeezes his margins and slaps in the fastest blow.
Fincent, who removed the container, will try to intercept Harold, but it's too late. At a time when neither defense nor evasion was possible, the counter struck the abdomen with a sword pattern, where the armor was crushed and dewy.
The pattern devours the flesh of the benign Fincent. Less unwounded than the original body.
He exhales blood from his mouth and slowly falls on his back as he is. Harold looks down on Fincent like that without loosening his guard.
But he doesn't move one thing. This time, really, I was silent.
"You're not gonna stab me?
Such a voice came from behind Harold, who is more flattered that he connected his life by winning over Fincent than by the aftertaste of victory...... The voice belonged to the person as expected in a way, but also someone who, given the original, did not know why he was here.
"It's not necessary. And why are you here, Cody?"
Cody Ruzial. Make him Fincent's best friend, and in the original there was a man there who was supposed to kill him with that hand.
"Things haven't been going right in Germany lately. I put it on because I tried to go somewhere without permission."
You know what, Harold is convinced. Unlike the original, Cody still belongs to the Knights. If so, we can see how Finn St. is doing nearby.
No wonder I noticed the change given the pattern of childhood taming.
"So that's where you were taking a peek. It's a tough hobby."
"No, no, no, no, you can't just break into a battle like you're sticking one foot in that out-of-the-way realm to your whole body's head."
Even I don't have time for my own life, and I can't grasp Cody's sincerity in laughing. I'm sure you really don't want Fincent to die.
Harold puts healing magic on Fincent, wondering if he would ever wear a toy because he was helped as a result.
That's what's happening in the game settings, but Harold's healing magic effects are immense. In numerical terms, HP recovers more than two thousand, so even compared to Erica, the hero party's recoverer, the digits are literally different.
Although I just couldn't afford to be recovering in the middle of a single ride with Fincent. In the game, if magic is even activated, it will heal in an instant, but in this world, which is weird and realistic, it takes the right amount of time until the wounds heal.
Suicide is the only way to make a long recovery in front of Fincent.
"Oh, we're going to help? Maybe they'll attack us again when we're back together?
"If it's biological, it's fine."
Harold can also recover health if he takes an ether, and if he keeps it restrained on top of that, it won't be that hard to control where he wakes up again. They cut my strength and energy considerably, but I don't have much physical damage.
Well, just in case I kept my weapon away, and my wounds healed where I did healing magic in the first place, I wouldn't immediately regain consciousness. Above all, if you leave it like this, Fincent will definitely die. Exactly. That's not sleeping well.
Or do you want him to die?
"... isn't that a little cowardly to ask?
"Then don't pinch your mouth."
"Yes, yes, I understand."
This face-to-face conversation with Cody has been going on since Harold left the Knights. In time, there would be a blank period of about five years, but Cody's frivolous words and actions remained the same.
In nostalgia for it, Harold ends Fincent's treatment. The big wound blocked and the blood stopped. Peel the figure after treatment.
"What are you doing?
"Possible hiding of noisy objects"
There is not just one Astral Potion in your possession. Harold decided he should also have a physical exam for once.
Plus maybe Fincent has a secret treasure. Well it looks like it's already in the hands of Justus at the point I was waiting here......
"... nothing,"
In the end, it was empty. Both the secret treasure hunt and the battle against Fincent are. The only harvest would have been crushing a dangerous handkerchief called Brainwash Fincent.
"Harold, by the way. What are you going to do now?
"... move to town first"
"What about your legs?
"I have a carriage waiting for me nearby. Call him and he'll be here any minute."
'Frieri' was useful in these details.
In the meantime, I'll see a doctor about Fincent, the injured person, and if it doesn't seem to be a problem, I'll let Cody take him straight home. Even Cody wouldn't take the back if he was Fincent with no restraint weapon even if he hadn't unwrapped his brainwash when he woke up.
"Let's go."
"Yes, sir."
You're in charge of him.
That's what I say and point to Fincent. Not to mention you let him take off his armor. He would weigh over a hundred kilograms because of his long, muscularly lumpy physique.
You have to walk down a road with bad scaffolding and uphill in charge of Fincent like that to get out of the cave. And Harold is exhausted right after the fight. It was self-evident who would take charge.
"Ha, ha, joke about it"
"... Huh!
"Ooh!?
Cody's bitter voice echoes in the cave.
Harold's left fist was engulfed in the body.
◇
Cody grins bitterly as he grabs his fist-slapped abdomen earlier as he takes on Fincent with his hands restrained behind his neck. He was taller than he remembered, and his back length was as good as his own. Even though he was a big man, his personality hasn't changed at all, but rather that grand attitude as an adult even made him feel about the board.
The Harold proceeded to the back of the cave when he left Fincent to Cody. They want nothing, but they have an object in the back.
I have no idea what's sleeping deep in the cave in such a despicable place, but does it have anything to do with Fincent going crazy? Besides the fact that I often think about Harold related, I accidentally sigh because of all the things I can't possibly tell from what I've been thinking.
The concern right now was clearly out of the ordinary track, whether or not my best friend Fincent would bring me back to sanity.
What the hell is going on? Get out of the cave with such questions.
It was a little before sundown when I got in here, but then it's been a few hours. I wonder how many hours those two had crossed swords, although Cody had already fought Harold hard at the time of his discovery of Finn St.
Harold, who made that level of killing for a long time, headed to the deepest part of the cave as soon as he settled, is still weird. Health can't take mental fatigue from recovering with ether, so if you're a regular person, you shouldn't be able to move for a while.
"Well, I don't know about Harold."
It's been a long time since we met that we can't measure with things like normal or common sense.
In the meantime, take out the light given to Harold and turn it back on and off with a time interval in the direction taught. Then several men emerged from behind the trees.
One of them spoke to Cody.
"Are you one of my husband's people?
"If you mean Harold, you do. He told me to take this man to a nearby hospital."
"Then say the code" Phew "."
"" A Brave Heart Gathered to the Treasure Ball of Miso, "huh? And this."
That said, Cody shows them the silver key he was receiving from Harold.
It seems to be proof that the coders and this key are really Harold's allies. What a handful of things I think you're doing.
"... this way"
There was a small carriage ahead that cleared the examination and Cody was guided.
"Put you and the man on this. Not much speed, but we'll be in the nearest town by nightfall"
"What about Harold?
"Never mind. I don't care about that guy."
What an appropriate answer, but it would mean that there is so much trust.
In retrospect, Harold was traveling fast enough to take a step back on the horse even as he headed to the Bertis Forest. It was when I was thirteen, so I guess it's even faster than that now.
In fact, it was difficult to see even from a position where the whole thing could be seen if it was the speed shown during the battle in the cave. In relative terms, it is a contract to lose sight of.
So convinced that it would be all right, Cody boarded the carriage and took a few hours to see the doctor in town who arrived to see Fincent.
The procedure was over, and the sun was already rising high when he heard and breathed a sigh that he would wake up as soon as he was at rest. And then Harold rendezvous a while later.
When I asked him how he got here out of the curiosity, he asked the people who were keeping him waiting outside the cave where the Cody's and the others headed, and he didn't wait for the carriage to come back and run after him.
It is only a misguided behavior such as stepping through a cave shortly after a long battle and running dozens of kilometres on its feet as soon as it turns its heels back and exits the cave. What I'm going to do with it is strange in itself, and even stranger that I can.
"I knew Harold wasn't human."
"Do you want another shot?
"You're a human trap, yeah."
My fist doesn't fly by Cody, who smiled and gave it back to me like that, and instead I get kicked in the calf and nodded.
How unreasonable, I moaned without putting it to words.
"Please don't increase the number of injuries in the hospital..."
"What's more going on with Fincent than that?
That's what Harold has heard as he looks down at Finn St. lying in bed.
"Oh, I normally go ahead with the conversation...? When it comes to doctors, there's nothing else in your life, and you'll wake up in it."
I would not have suffered an injury that would have been strange if I had died, but thanks to Harold himself healing that. I was almost at a loss to decide if I should complain or express my gratitude.
Harold, who opposes him, reacts "well," as usual. I don't think you're worried about Fincent for curing magic or caring about your body right away.
"Does Harold know what happened to Fincent?
"Perhaps Justus did something about brainwashing."
"Justus... is that Dr. Freund? Brainwashing is not calm again..."
"What?
"No..."
There were also surprises caused by the emergence of the name of a rare genius doctor named after the kingdom, but the reason Cody was stuck in words was because the word "brainwashing” blurred his head. This links Fincent's abnormal state to certain memories of the past.
That was a few years ago, when there was an incident in the Bertis Forest and Harold was about to be sentenced to death.
He gave his colleague Finnegan, one of those involved in the deliberation, a confessional pill to explore the truth of the inexplicable verdict. In doing so, he became a state of confusion and began to hit the pillars of the store hard in the head.
The two men managed to stop it, but the unusual appearance at that time is still strongly engraved into Cody's brain.
That was like...
"'It seemed possessed by the devil', or..."
Words that accidentally leaked out of my mouth when I saw Finnegan's anomaly then. I also recall feeling something thin and creepy as I said it myself.
Since then Finnegan has only repeated his admonitions, and now he has quit the Knights and is in home therapy. I have heard that you have not been able to communicate with me anymore and have just gone to bed.
I really wonder if Fincent will do the same. That's all I can't tell you. Sorrow and anger gush out of my chest.
"What are you talking about?
"Uh..."
Unexpectedly. Sometimes I don't know if that's really something to do with Justus, and now Harold belongs to an institute in Justus. I was wondering if I should tell Harold my standing is unknown.
... but that's a flash, too.
The time I spent with a man named Harold isn't that long, but Cody still has some idea of what he is.
He fought with his life in the Bertis Forest. Without Harold, the human damage of the Knights and the Star Wings would have more than doubled.
Inside the Knights there were some opinions that the damage could have been contained more if they had been known in advance, but it is even doubtful if Harold, who at the time was also a good newcomer, moved on to some measure where he tried to persuade them by words alone.
I guess Harold fought without relying on the Knights because he understood it.
And this time he saved Fincent's life, even though it was also possible to kill him. I believe that even though they have some purpose, they are not human beings who do things that deprive people of their lives and dignity.
"... there was actually a man who got confused a few years ago, just like Fincent."
Finnegan was in the deliberation where Harold was sentenced to death. It happened when I asked him what the deliberation was like. Tell him that.
Harold, who heard the story, pushed silently to see if he was coming up with something.
"Until today, the truth was in the dark, but I thought maybe Dr. Freund had something to do with this."
"... I can't say for sure, but I guess that's more likely. He has the skill to seal up the human self and make puppets."
"That's horrible again. Doctor's a hell of a man, isn't he?
"At least one mastermind that happened in the Bertis Forest is him. And then I was sentenced to death, and I pulled it back."
"Do you have such authority over any and all researchers?
That's what they asked me. Harold pulls his sword out of his sheath.
"He is a sword created by Justus. Dramatically increases combat ability by absorbing user magic. The price is the lifespan of the user."
Cody loses his word in that explanation.
Because Harold actually used the sword. I don't know the extent, but I'm pretty sure Harold's life expectancy is lost.
"We can improve the disadvantage of cutting life spans if research proceeds. But in order to do that, we need to experiment with the use, which is difficult from the humanitarian point of view. Then we can let the people who go to die use it."
Just pale, as if it were some other HR, Harold said.
It's easy to reprimand what a fool it is. But if I hadn't taken the sword, Harold would have been killed just like that. It was Justus who set it up, and it was also he who produced the devilish sword.
From the beginning, Harold didn't have a choice.
"If it's done, it's the strongest army we can do. How much hesitation do the upper echelons of the country have in overturning the verdict of one death row inmate?
"... you don't. Oh, I wouldn't."
Both the kingdom and the people who live there, much of the world is made up of some sacrifice. It would be the darkest part of the country. Cody also understands the extent of this.
But there is no way I can be convinced. If you're a real death row inmate who committed a heinous crime, Harold is still the man who saved many human lives. Such a man is trapped and his life is being sacrificed as a bad man. There's no way I can forgive that irrationality.
Unprecedented anger fills Cody's heart, including about Fincent and Finnegan and the Bertis Forest.
But do not leave your body in the wrath, to quell your feelings. What needs to be done now is not to be angry, but to think about understanding the situation and how it will be handled in the future.
"But that's it. Keep you as a pawn, why is it expanding to kill Fincent? We're both on the Doctor's side, right?"
"He's moving for a purpose. I've worked with it on the surface, but as soon as I betrayed him, I didn't hesitate to kill him. That's all."
"That's easy to understand"
Sounds like Harold, including where he was willing to betray me from the beginning at the point where he said it was on the surface, etc.
My strength that never fades, even if I am held to life. I guess that's what you can't make him submit to unless you even brainwash him.
I think about that and laugh at it without thinking too much "rakusa”.
"What's the purpose of Dr. Annoyance?
Ask him what he's doing this for.
"It's..."
"Wait... I want you to tell me that story too..."
But that voice cracks in where Harold tried to answer.
That was very weak, but for Cody it belonged to a familiar man.
