Beat the Boss Mob

Four Steps, Truly

It was truly a long and difficult time. It was literally hell itself for nearly half a year.

Suddenly, I felt like I wanted to just leave it like this.

Even though I swore I would never do that, naughty thoughts suddenly came to mind.

My chest hurt so much that it was painful to even breathe, let alone carry out daily life.

Every time I did that, I took out the letter that I held dear in my arms.

I don’t know how many times I’ve read it. I just read and read again.

So that the bad thoughts disappear, until I gain the strength to endure again.

That’s how I was able to endure it. I was able to overcome it. And I was able to come this far.

“Kkeeeee!!”

“Now. Just because you do that doesn’t mean it’s guaranteed to work. Everyone, just focus for a moment.”

In the past, Hero Academy was a sanctuary for those who gathered for noble sacrifice.

The current Continental Academy is the starting point for those who have the heart to benefit the world.

A place to let people know that there is hope in some way.

“When did you say that mana was at its most powerful?”

“When my mind and body are extremely stable.”

“Yes. That’s right. So, if you go to a place where your mind becomes peaceful, try directing your mana. But everyone is urgent now. Very much. “It’s sure to be difficult.”

Wasn’t he like that in the past? It was very urgent. And a lot of it was foolish.

As a result, he couldn’t bear it anymore and deliberately guided her to a better path.

“Enlil.”

A female student carefully raises her hand and continues speaking.

“Is serenity really the only path suitable for mana practice?”

“Not really. There are plenty of other ways. For example…”

It was only for a moment, but a dark shadow stayed on Enlil’s face and then disappeared.

Although students who still had many shortcomings did not realize it.

“Anger, hatred. Yes. Negative emotions can also be an amplifier.”

This also happened to me in the past. If you look at it this way, you were included in all cases.

Bad person. He used himself very thoroughly. Knowing all the ways to become strong.

“Then people who use those negative emotions can quickly become stronger.”

“Are bad people becoming stronger? “Isn’t that a bad thing for the world?”

“What should I do if I meet such people? Should I stop it? Or not…”

Chatter Chatter-

The students were curious about everything and wanted to know everything.

Enlil thought about it for a moment, then smiled and answered.

“It will vary from case to case. People who prey on negative emotions and cause suffering to themselves or others because they want only those things are probably bad people. But emotions always change at any time…”

“It’s difficult!”

“Yes. That’s right. It’s a difficult problem. Still, I hope you guys will stop me at least once. “It’s not just that people are bad, but even when things are hard, they tend to drift into a negative place without even. .Realizing it.”

The moment it occurred to me, there was someone that came to mind, but I decided to quit.

Even if you do it for no reason, you are the one who gets sick, and you are the one who can’t sleep.

“Don’t fool yourself. But don’t be overly swayed by your emotions.”

“Is that possible, Enlil? Just listening to it already makes me think it’s difficult.”

“It won’t be impossible. It’s just very difficult. Is it so. In fact, I still find it difficult to control those emotions. It’s difficult and painful.”

Then the students said, Huh? And everyone looks surprised.

Could it be that Enlil is the hero who brought down the tower and brought peace to the world?

The object of envy, who seemed to be able to do anything and know everything.

It’s difficult and painful, but I still say that there are things that I find difficult to do.

“Sleep, brothers and sisters? “It’s lunch time. Do you plan on continuing like this?”

“aaah!”

“Saint!”

“Woohuhu. Is it so. I’m here. Well, you have to eat a lot today to grow taller! “Wouldn’t it be possible for my body to become stronger and become like a warrior?”

Seria, who was thought to have the least connection with the students, is surprisingly the closest to them.

In particular, a lot of young students followed her, and her unique ability to quickly understand people’s minds seemed to have had a great influence.

Thanks to this, Enlil was able to be free from the young students for a while.

Although I do it because I enjoy it, dealing with children is very difficult.

Pure white drawing paper. If we were to define children, we could do just that.

And the picture changes depending on what paint and color are applied on the drawing paper.

It could really become a wonderful landscape painting by someone.

Otherwise, there may be a rare and strange work that one is afraid of coming out of a dream.

Because of this, Enlil, Ceria, and all the instructors had no choice but to be cautious.

“You came today too, saintess.”

“You have to come every day. The religious order tells us to go only once a week, but… Who will look after the children if not me? The instructors and professors are just settling in, and Sister Enlil alone has her limits.”

These are not empty words; In fact, Ceria’s visit was a great help to Enlil.

It’s a bit strange to say this, though. I don’t feel like a fool, though.

He found it strangely difficult to deal with children. The reason is, well. I don’t know.

It’s just difficult. Are the children themselves annoying or are their gazes burdensome?

“It makes me happy to see you doing so well. The Academy was revived after a year and went there not to sacrifice their lives, but to brighten the world.”

“You’ve been worried a lot, right? “I’m sorry.”

“Good to know! “I have been so anxious for almost half a year!”

All Enlil can do in response to Ceria’s grumbling is to laugh and say, ‘Ahaha.’

As the saying goes, even after putting that letter in my arms, I was quite lost.

For almost several months, I wandered around like a crazy person, to put a little bit of exaggeration.

Thanks to this, Seria followed suit, unable to concentrate at all on her work as a saint.

Perhaps Enlil will make a foolish choice, and if he does, I will stop him at all costs.

Enlil was almost filled with regret for the way he cared for him.

“There’s nothing to worry about. “Whether it was then or now, I can’t do that anymore.”

I received a favor. So, until the moment you die, you will live.

It still hurts, I hate it a little, and I miss it so much.

From now on, I plan to no longer tear myself apart for something I cannot reach.

Because he wouldn’t want it either. Because I want to show him.

I smile like this and work as hard as I can.

So you should too. You, too, should be smiling when you leave this place.

So that one day, when this life is over and we meet again, we can hug each other and tell each other that we have worked hard.

“Oh, right. I have some places to go today. In the meantime, can I ask for the academy?”

“Are you going there again?”

Enlil smiles and nods at the question.

“What is it like there now, Enlil? Has it improved a lot?”

“Yes. I’m almost healed now. I worked really hard, but fortunately, I think it paid off.”

“Thank god. I’m so glad.”

Seria smiled after Enlil and told him to go as far as he wanted.

It goes without saying, but I am a little worried that I have to come back, which has now become nothing more than a nagging feeling.

Shaaa—

A gentle breeze blows, tickling my face pleasantly.

Sunlight, full of warm and cozy energy, falls on it.

The fields that have regained their green color show off fresh light and fragrant smells.

“Whoa.”

After catching his breath, Enlil carefully sat down in the middle.

And then slowly look around. It reminds me of the broken, devastated past.

It took a lot of hard work to restore this place. It was very difficult.

It couldn’t even be compared to fighting a demonic beast. It would have been better that way.

Fixing what was broken and reviving what was damaged was incredibly difficult.

But I had to do it. I wanted to do it. And, in the end, I did it.

This place filled with memories, a place that I had destroyed with my own hands, has now been brought back to life.

“…”

Look up at the sky. It’s blue. It sparkles. It can’t be more beautiful than this.

Lower your head and look around. It can’t be more brilliant than this.

It’s a pity that he’s not here, but he’ll always be here watching over you.

If you stretch out your hand like this, you can feel his hand, and if you lean back, your backs will touch each other.

When I carefully lay my head down, I remember the knees that once supported me.

“… Sorry. I promised not to cry anymore. It keeps happening like this.”

Enlil quickly wiped away a single tear and smiled as brightly as he could.

I’m living hard. For Leon, for you who will imagine me.

So instead, I’ll keep thinking about you too. Until the day I die.

Even though I can’t see it. Although we can’t meet. Let’s meet like this at least. Forever.
