Volume 3
Chapter 31-Circumstances and Promises
(TL:By Rafael,valhallatls.blogspot.com)
A few days later.
My uncle and I were looking out over the valley of death, where the morning sun was shining.
From La Jo, which is located on a small hill, we can clearly see the hemispherical "Inverted Labyrinth of Tenebrae.
The area of the inverted labyrinth Tenebrae, which absorbs even the bright light of the morning sun, is steadily increasing in size, and it is a clear indication that this world is gradually being turned inside out.
"Are you ready to go? Yuki."(Saga)
"Of course I am."(Yuki)
The corners of my uncle's mouth fish out at my reply.
"You have the eyes of an even better man than before. What's the occasion?"(Saga)
"I'd appreciate it if you don't delve too deeply into that. There's a lot going on, even for me."(Yuki)
"Kuku."(Saga)
(TL:Some R-18 developments)
My uncle let out a small laugh in response to my vague answer.
At this rate, I feel like he knows everything.
With that in mind, I reflected on the last few days since my ...... uncle showed up.
There have been a lot of things that have chilled my liver and pulled me out of the ...... world, but generally, I'd say it's been a good time.
It was fortuitous that I was able to see my uncle again at this time.
I was able to confirm and supplement various knowledge, and we were able to share the promised drinks with each other.
I felt a little lighter, as if one of the regrets that had been holding me back from jumping into a place of death had been erased.
"I'm going to Finis now,and I'm taking Benwood with me."(Saga)
"Okay but be careful."(Yuki)
The "colorless darkness" - or rather, the "tower" - that exists in it ......is spreading beneath Finis.
My uncle is going to challenge the tower again with his former friends and party members, including Benwood and Mamaru.
By the way, when I asked him how they will get to Finis, he replied, "I have a special magic tool artifact."
I would have loved to have been shown that, but unfortunately, he neither showed it nor told me.
My uncle was very secretive from the beginning. It would be useless to pursue the matter.
Now, if I only understood that my uncle had the means to do so, there would be no problem.
"You see, Yuki, You made the right choice, but there are some things you mustn't do."(Saga)
"...?"(Yuki)
I nod my head at my uncle, who says something that sounds like a play on words.
"It's not wrong to work to save the world. This is our world. It is worth protecting. But we also have the choice to abandon the world for ourselves."(Saga)
Looking dazzledly at the rising sun, my uncle continues.
"There is no need to sacrifice ourselves for the world. We, the walkers, are especially qualified to cross the world. It's okay to run away. Don't get your priorities wrong."(Saga)
"Yes, sir."(Yuki)
The words spontaneously poured out of my mouth.
It was Uncle Saga who rescued me from my first hometown, which was destroyed in the aftermath of the stampede.
It was my uncle who took me in as a disaster orphan and brought me to Ferdio's house, and it was my uncle who showed me the path to becoming an adventurer.
... "During training, you will call me 'sir'."
These words echoed in my mind.
A memory of the days when I was a young boy, when I was still a child, when my dreams and the path I would take were decided by me.
I was still a child when I heard my uncle's words of admonition, and it suddenly came back to me.
"I miss the way you used to call me."(Saga)
"You always show me the way, Uncle."(Yuki)
"You can't say that anymore. You already have friends to show you the way, don't you?"(Saga)
I nodded deeply at my uncle's words.
Yes, I am the leader of Clover.
I have to carry the trust, the life, and the determination that is entrusted to me.
"I understand."(Yuki)
"Haha that's the spirit. Let's do it, Yuki. We're going to save the world."
My uncle smiles brightly.
"I know I sounded like a big guy, but from here on out, We're going to be in the same labyrinth, just at different points.."(Saga)
"Leave it to me. We'll take care of this."(Yuki)
"Please. The countries, including Wellmeria, are already on the move. We are the key."(Saga)
I nodded at his uncle's words and looked at the "Inverted Labyrinth Tenebrae" in the "King's Temple" that was about to swallow the "Valley of Death".
The labyrinths in various places seem to have become unstable due to the influence of the "Inverted Labyrinth Tenebrae," with monster ferocity and "overflow" occurring in various places.
This is proof that the "Colorless Darkness," the fundamental labyrinth of this world, has begun to spiral out of control.
In response, King Wellmeria has already issued an "Imperial Order of King's Order," and renowned A-rank parties such as "Skordia," "Gruntsblow," and "Carmine" have already begun to make their moves.
Presumably, the Adventurers' Guild is also in full operation, issuing requests and dispatching adventurers.
But this is only a stopgap measure.
The only way to get to the root of the problem is to attack the "tower," which is the source of the "Inverted Labyrinth Tenebrae," and remove the cause of the problem.
And I don't know why ...... it feels fateful that I should do it.
The other day, when I told this to my uncle, he replied in a silly way, "Walkers are more or less chosen by destiny with a mission, my dear "hero"."
I don't like words like "mission" and "destiny.
They often impose unreasonableness and misfortune on someone.
But then I reconsidered.
If it was fate that led me to Marina that day, to forming "Clover" with my former students, to discuss our dreams, to going forward with those dreams, ...... and now to face my dreams, then it's not so bad.
I still don't understand the mission of the "hero" or the fate of the world.
It is too heavy, too large in scale. It is not something that I alone can carry.
However, as I pondered it, I came to a realization. What I wanted to do.
I just want to cherish this world where I met these women and decided to live together with them.
So, I will do what I can do. I will do the best I can.
With these stubborn and loving women, who even say they will be with me until the afterlife.
Uncle tapped me on the shoulder.
I may have looked nervous.
"Well, you'd better get yourself together, You can leave the rough details to us. We'll take care of the big picture."(Saga)
"I'm not worried about that. I can't imagine Uncle and Mamaru failing, let alone Benwood."(Yuki)
"Benwood's a good man, if he's not too old and geeky. Well, I'll be on my way. If all goes well, I'll see you in front of the Abyss Gate. See you soon, Yuki."(Saga)
After telling me this, the old man disappeared as if melting into the air without hearing my reply.
It was a little later that I learned of the commotion over the disappearance of Benwood, who was in the guild building in "La-Jo" at the same time.
