Labyrinth City Mesugaki Pawn Shop

chapter 37



37. End (3)

“Whoa… Haa…”

With a rough breath, I loosened the grip on Carol’s collar.

Fortunately, thanks to the red suit, I couldn’t see the blood splattered all over the suit.

The only difference is that her white gloves have turned red.

And in front of me was something unidentified wriggling like dumplings.

What is the contradiction brought about by a person becoming like a giant soccer ball?

“If it wasn’t for you… Huh… It’s my fault too, so I’ll put up with it here.”

“D…Da..Tsu.. What am I…?(What am I…?)”

Even a submission that stretches the range of motion of the joints to the limit, grabbing the arm and walking without mercy if you crouch under an abdominal blow such as a river blow…!

Still, there was only swelling, but there was no actual break or serious injury.

However, because of the intensive low kicks on his thighs, he may have to be confined to a wheelchair with bruised legs for several weeks.

There were also things that were done even more severely, to say the opposite, to feel it for yourself.

Even if I die, I won’t see Legarete go through the same thing again.

It seems that he passed out before he knew it, and his head drooped…

“Uh..Uh? Hey hey hey! Breathe breathe! Breathe!”

…There was a small incident for a while, but I was able to safely throw it into the second floor room.

“Oh, welcome…”

The trembling eyes of Le Galette and her maid were a bonus.

“First of all, I think you have a misunderstanding…”

“Huh…!”

Looking at Legarete, who had tears welling up on her lips and biting her lips, I felt that something was wrong.

I tried to pinpoint the cause, but the result was a mess.

I didn’t want this.

“…First of all, I think I need to introduce myself.”

She threw off her blood-soaked helm and ran a brush back through her sweaty hair.

She’s slightly bloody, but she can’t help it.

“Suck…Suck!”

Two people who have become harder than ever before, they didn’t even shed tears anymore.

Should I have wiped off the reddened cheeks, maybe a fever…?

“Hello, I’m Einheri, who came on behalf of Witch Jan Estoria from the BSG pawn shop.”

“…I, I…!”

“It’s Le Garete!”

Suddenly, with a fierce shout from behind, a man blocked the way.

It was William White, a brown-haired man with a distorted expression.

“Are there any injuries anywhere? No, what the heck is this! What the hell at the mansion…!”

I was prepared to some degree from the time I gave Carol away.

I was willing to ask a little bit.

However, things were going strangely.

Le Garete’s eyes grew chilly in an instant as she stood in the way…

“Father.”

“Eh, huh?”

Legarete’s strangely calm voice turned him away.

“This person has nothing to do with the noise outside. He was talking to me a while ago.”

”But the guards outside are obviously wearing strange clothes…”

“It must be an illusion. This person can’t do that, right?”

For some reason, it was Legarete who started defending herself. She turned her gaze toward her maid while Le Ga Rethe was not looking at William.

“Yes…Yes! That’s right, Master, these guys have been here all along.”

It was William who had nothing to say when Michelle, the maid behind her, joined.

“No, no matter how much, that blood…”

“No, Father. That’s not blood.”

“I’ve been a doctor for several years, but I can’t tell blood…

“…I’m going to throw away the stuffed carif python I secretly bought and hid in the attic.”

“Nothing happened. Cancer.”

“…”

I took off my gloves and greeted William White, whose attitude changed in an instant.

“Hello, this is Einheri from BSG pawnshop. Today she came to deliver her goods to Mr. William White.”

“Ah, the pawnshop… Finally…”

After hearing that, William calmed down and accepted the box I gave him.

Click.

What appeared through the opened box was a monkey hand that moved hideously.

“…I have offended you by leaving a special guest. Could you please wait for a moment? It’ll take a while. Michelle, take Legarete to your room.”

“…Yes, master.”

Judging by the hand holding the box tightly and the tense face, it seemed like it was going to be used right away.

“Yes, as much as you like.”

“No, Father…Dad! If you do anything strange to Einheri, I will really throw away all the stuffed animals!”

Looking at Le Garette, who had the face of a girl of that age, she just laughed hahahaha.

That must have been the original look, the lively figure of the girl.

Soon after, William followed.

“Einheri, are the legs of the girl named Legarete… Uncomfortable?”

“General, not, firm, resembling an old tree, case, only one.”

It seemed that Floren noticed it first.

“They said it was a thousand sentences. Well, not anymore.”

“Yes? What do you mean no…”

It might be difficult for Yerica to understand.

“Next time, I’ll talk to you after a while.”

“Yes? You shouldn’t talk now-“

“It’s not good for you to hear, Yonsuk-ah!”

Beans!

“Evil!”

A familiar voice and a familiar staff that pounded Yerica’s head hard.

“Because fetishism is originally woven just by telling a story.”

Heyden was standing in the back.

Everyone was embarrassed, and I too.

No, why are you here?

“Why, is this a place where this old man shouldn’t come?”

“No, it’s not like that…”

“He acted cheesy on the subject of taking a few more things.”

.

….There’s nothing to say about that, in a way it’s the same as stealing.

“Your guy took the box, so I followed him.”

Hayden must have known exactly what was in the box.

“Tsk, you don’t have to make such a spleen expression, this guy. I’m just curious. I wonder if that casting will work normally.”

“If it is normal?”

“What is it? Legarete’s treatment. Who made that wooden box in the first place?”

…It’s weird not recognizing it if it was made by Hayden himself.

“Well, apparently, your wish will come true normally, even if you pay the price.”

“If it is a price…”

It was said that Yan made additional sacrifices, lest the first wisher pay too much.

“Instead of fixing her daughter’s legs, she will lose her own.”

“…!”

That’s why it’s a complete reversal.

What will her daughter think when she sees her father’s missing leg.

“But it’s not that serious, it’s not like cutting off a leg or anything like that. It’s just a slight limp in one leg. That’s a price that can’t even be put on the axis of the master. If you use an assistive device when walking, you will be able to walk as usual.”

I thought of Carol from the previous episode because I was losing my leg.

It’s really fortunate that he wasn’t the one who was sentenced to death instead of Legarete.

Now, it was my turn to wait.

When wishes come true.

“It’s over.”

Hayden muttered after closing his eyes for a moment.

Less than five minutes later, William and his maid Michelle were walking together from afar.

Exactly as Hayden said, William was standing on his crutches to one side.

However, it was not a bitter smile, but a blissful smile that brought tears to my eyes.

I didn’t feel the need to ask about the results.

“Thank you, thank you. Mr Einheri. Thank you very much….”

Unknowingly, tears welled up at the emotions that came from the tightly clasped hands.

After accepting the box again and checking the monkey’s hand, Hayden turned around as if there was nothing more to look at.

The intention to go now that everything has ended safely.

However, I still have work to do.

“Do you have any intention of becoming a disciple again?”

“Who, Legarete?”

Hayden, who only turned his head, frowned.

“If you want to learn magic, the principle is to learn it as young as possible. Yerica, how old were you when you entered the Mage Tower?”

“Phil-win! 1157Th Yerica Myers, 9 years old!”

“Even so, this guy’s magic skills are still at this level.”

Beans!

Hitting her in the head again, Yerica muttered as she lowered her head.

“Frame…!”

Beans!

“LeGalette missed the golden time of initiation into magic. Since she was sentenced to death and left the Mage Tower midway through, her time as a wizard has already ended.”

“But you’ve fixed the sentence, right?”

“Does your time spontaneously rise from the ground? If that’s the case, then I understand.”

Unlike Hayden, who sneered, I knew.

Le Ga Lete’s overflowing talent, Le Ga Lete who became her witch, and the way she dealt with everyone.

“I assure you.”

“What?”

“Le Garete, she will be able to become a witch. She has that potential.”

This time I took the place of what Hayden had said to young Legarete in the world of lies.

Maybe she’s what Hayden said to Le Garethe when she was really young when she entered her mage tower.

At that, Hayden stopped her steps as she was about to move and looked at me.

“…What the hell do you believe in saying that?”

I just smiled…

And he answered with full of faith.

“Because I saw it myself.”

The future that only I know.

**********

“Ah…”

It was obviously fine until my father entered the room, but he seemed to have fallen asleep without realizing it.

My back was covered in sweat because I had a short but unpleasant nightmare.

It wasn’t something that could be solved simply by changing clothes, it was so damp that I had to wash all over my body.

“Did Einheri go…?”

“That guy? He must be leaving the mansion by now.”

“Kiyaat!”

Le Garete threw herself to the side in fright at the sudden voice beside her.

Hayden was sitting in the chair next to the bed.

As a child, she was the same as the one who picked her up.

“Hey, Hayden? No how…?”

“That guy is quite bold. From the moment he handed over the elixir, he knew at least that he was no ordinary guy, but he was bold beyond common sense. If it wasn’t for Yan, he might have coveted it.”

Legarete’s head was a mess.

What the hell is this?!

“LeGalette, do you remember leaving the Mage Tower on your own eight years ago?”

The days when I was sentenced to death, lost the flow of magical power, and had no choice but to rely on the elixir.

There was no way I could forget the beginning.

“Then does he intend to come back?”

“But my legs…”

“What do you mean by legs?”

“Yes?”

Hayden silently pointed to his leg.

And there…

“The legs… The legs…!”

It wasn’t the legs that were twisted like the old tree you usually see, but there were two legs that weren’t muscled yet, but were very clean.

Unbelievable, as soon as his toes started to move at the same time as the tickling feeling, tears flowed without his knowledge.

“Why? How?”

“So, do you plan to come back?”

If legs weren’t an issue, Legarete could have given his nod.

Whenever I can’t move my legs, I always dream of doing things, learning magic, going on adventures, and…

And… What was it?

After waking up, the faint nightmare that had been slowly disappearing from my head was overlaid on my memory.

It was an incomprehensible dream.

A ridiculous dream in which you become a monster and sweep the city away.

And it was such a dream, but strangely, there was a shining person who always ran towards him.

Even at the end when he became a monster and collapsed from exhaustion, he blamed himself for being responsible.

For some reason, that figure overlapped with the one now.

“Wait, wait…!”

When I put my legs on the floor, not on the wheelchair, cold energy wrapped around my toes.

She was overcome with unspeakable emotions as sensations she could no longer feel covered her body, but she was not supposed to.

There was work left to do.

Kung!

As soon as I took a step, I fell back to the floor.

It was an unfamiliar step, but I immediately reached the floor, grabbed the wall and the door, and managed to stand up again.

Compared to the dull pain that resonated throughout my body, it wasn’t even blood on my feet compared to the punishment I’d been through.

I took one step after another slowly, slowly.

Kung.

I fell down again, grabbed hold of it, and stood up.

My legs were shaking with fear.

I wasn’t afraid of falling down.

I was afraid that I might miss it or not be able to speak.

As I barely stumbled out of the room, the window caught my eye.

A window extended all the way down so that even a person sitting in a wheelchair could see it, but through the window, which had now become too low, Einheri’s back could be seen.

Legarete opened her window and shouted with all her might the words that tickled in her heart.

“Thank you, Einheri! Thank you!”

The sound was enough to make even the guard at the front gate look around in surprise, but Einheri did not turn around.

She just raised her hand and shook it.

Seeing her hand shaking lightly as if it were nothing, the tears I had been holding back burst out.

“…hahahaha, what a fool.”

An unknown feeling, and Le Garete realized what she had to do herself.

“I can learn magic again… No, I will learn it. I will definitely learn.”

She was already too late, she was herself, but she didn’t know when it would be, but she promised that she would try and try again.

I envision the day when I will stand proudly in front of Einheri with my two legs, not a wheelchair.

The warm sunlight outside the window warmly embraced Legarete’s cheeks.

**********

After leaving the mansion, I quietly opened the box.

Click.

*Affiliation: Void (see details)

Thanks to the unlock ability of the information window, which was released with the help of Goddess Theia, additional details of the monkey hand were revealed.

“Wow…Was this bastard also a void?”

The whole world is empty…!

Could it be that something influenced Legarete?

It would be really difficult to inject all the memories of the previous car and blacken again.

With Hayden remaining, I’ll take action if I have a clue.

Still, I couldn’t help but feel anxious.

I hope you don’t.

“Ah, so I have to go find the scroll parchment I left at the workshop, so I’ll go first…!”

“Bow string, repair, spare, blacksmith street, to find, must go.”

It was the first time.

Being separated because of each other’s work.

A time zone that has never been reached.

It was a new time for the first time.

Since each person uses a different inn, I decided to decide where to meet.

“Then, how about coming back to the pawnshop around noon tomorrow?”

“Good. Nearness.”

“The witch’s pawn shop…! Can I really go?!”

It was Yerica, who was very excited, and Floren, who nodded.

Um… Wouldn’t that be okay?

Maybe they will like it because they brought a customer to sell their goods to.

After parting with the two, I entered the familiar Alchemy Workshop street.

I entered the pawnshop entrance with blackout curtains, saying things I had never said before.

“Have you been back… Ugh!”

Something hard hit my forehead and I fell backwards.

What, what!

In that place where she stood up with a frown covering her forehead…

“A knight?”

Knights wrapped in full plate mail filled the inside of the pawnshop.

In a situation where I couldn’t even guess what the hell was going on, blue hair caught my eye near the cashier in the distance.

Judging from the fact that he is talking with Yan, he must be a guest.

A blue-haired woman, as if a wave was raging, suddenly turned back while talking with Yan.

Their eyes met.

Considerable beauty, unlike other knights, the silver armor was something close to a kind of art rather than simple equipment.

It’s sacred.

That was the feeling I felt.

“Mr. Einheri?”

…Until my name came out of her mouth.

I’ve never greeted such a beauty, so how come he knows my name?

As I approached, I felt the fresh apple scent at the tip of my nose.

“My name is Raffy Midnight, the leader of the Knights Templar.”

Clap.

And the passing collar that is stuffed around my neck… No, a steel dog collar…!

“You are urgently arrested on charges of blasphemy, treachery, heresy, and violation of the law of cause and effect.”

“…Yes?”

There was no time to breathe, life was going to hell.
