Chapter 63: Farewell Shining Sword

Chapter 63: Farewell Shining Sword

Leon was lying on his back, looking at the blue sky, he wasn't thinking about anything in particular, or even feeling.Little by little, everything turned white, everything around him disappeared and when he blinked, he was in his hometown, in his little house next to his grandmother.

She was about to read him a book about the hero, but as soon as she opened the book, he felt uneasy.

"Being a hero isn't so great after all."

A hero must fight to the end, isn't that too tiring? Maybe a normal life as a shopkeeper would be better? Especially when we have the blessing of the emissaries. You can work better and you don't have the burden of always getting stronger. You're not competing against nature's tricksters like avatars...

He didn't feel anything, but he smiled, he was happy.

He raised his hand and whispered.

"... just... just... you wait... andma... I'll... I'll take care of... the shop... don't... don't... do not worry..."

The hand hit the ground, and his fighting spirit disappeared. Leon was no longer Leon.

Only Erick and Hope witnessed this scene, Sana rushing towards Dora.

Erick, barely holding back his tears, turned to the others.

"CURSE YOU!!! I WILL KILL YOU ONE DAY! I swear I'm going to kill you DORA!!!!"

The group stopped and turned around for a moment, everyone looked annoyed and only Dora showed concern.

With dark circles, testifying to his fatigue, he noticed Leon smiling.

He looked away, seemingly worried, but not because of his opponent's pathetic state, but because from his point of view, this was Leon's state after his strongest mode.

(... Didn't I use polymerization? How is he still conscious?)

"Don't look back, he brought that to himself." Freya led the way, Dora looked confused and put a hand to his face, he was only worried because his opponent was fine, but the circumstances made it seem like he was really worried about Leon.

Morgiana placed a hand on his back and encouraged him to move forward, Marie held his hand.

"Wait!... Dora!"

Sana joined them, but as she tried to grab him, Lilith hit her hand.

"I can't believe it... Why are you so persistent?!"

"N-no... I... Dora, he lied, I didn't..."

"Enough already!!"

She gave her a powerful slap on the cheek, not hard enough to knock her out but enough to shake her spirit.

"... I'm tired of you... You're not better than Leon... Go away..." Tears began to flow in Lilith's eyes.

Sana knelt down and spoke in a broken voice.

"Please... Let me explain, don't trust him... Dora, please... it's just a lie, I didn't trust him, I never followed him, I was... I was just lost. .. I didn't know... you... you can't... I'm like everyone else... don't abandon me..."

She started crying profusely, it was a poor sight, Lilith couldn't hold back her tears, even though she was the most furious with her.

Freya, amused, began to lecture her.

"Some people really have no shame, even in such a position, you are begging? Right in front of... Huh?"

She stopped when Dora walked over and crouched down in front of Sana, the healer looked at him with pleading eyes.

"Sana, let's stop this now, it's no use."

"Please... please... he's lying... I... I never betrayed you... I was fooled... like everyone else... ."

"... Look... Urgh... How can I say this... Okay, so... I don't hate you, I never hated you."

Her eyes shone and their audience began to open their mouths wide.

"You... You don't hate me?..."

"No."

"... Really?... D... Dora... even... even after... ugh..." She started to cry again, she cried with all her might and leaned on him for a hug, but a finger on her forehead stopped her.

"But I never loved you either. That's why I can't hate you or Leon, this love triangle game means nothing to me."

She froze, her arms still open. She opened and closed her eyelids several times, unable to process what was happening.

"I don't know why we started dating... Or... let's just say it was a mistake, I didn't want that and you just wanted to date someone who would be a serious emissary, am I wrong? Remember our discussion about my purpose in life?"

"... no... no..."

"Look, I'm not stupid, okay? I know what's going on behind my back, more than you think in fact, I know what you and Leon have been doing all this time, and the only reason I haven't intervened is the same thing as why you did all this: to get rid of you."

"Stop... Stooooop!!!"

She covered her ears with her hands and closed her eyes, but his words could still reach her.

"We're both guilty, you wanted me because I was... I'm strong, then you used Leon to get rid of me, and I agreed to go out with you because... A part of me is a fool, and I let you use Leon to get rid of you. Leon is the real victim in this story but screws him... If you want to date someone with a bright future, there is still Hope, or the mage with a prosthetic leg... Oh, sorry, Freya.

"... I'll ignore it." Freya frowned.

Dora looked at Sana who was trying to make herself deaf and gave her a pat on the head.

"I didn't ignore you because I hated you but because I knew what you wanted, and I won't be trapped in that anymore. I hope we don't see each other again, I don't hate you, but I have a feeling it won't be reciprocated, and you might want revenge, so, goodbye and sorry."

He got up and walked away very slowly, his face showing immense fatigue.

Sana burst into tears and fell to the ground.

"I gave you everything!!! I did everything because of you!!! Why?! Why???... It's not fair... it's... give it back !... Give back my happiness!...ugh...why..."

She burst into tears, Dora, turning his back on her, stopped for a moment.

"I wish you find true happiness one day."

He walked away and Sana's tears redoubled. Everyone else looked at the ground worriedly.

They were relieved to see this cursed romance finally over, they were so satisfied to see the young boy settling down free that they forgot to think about how they ended up in a relationship.

But they still respected this moment. No one spoke because they knew it was a conclusion for all 3 of them.

They didn't know what kind of relationship they could actually have, Dora and Leon were supposed to know each other before the creation of Shining Sword, and no one knew what Dora and Sana's love life was like.

They could only count on his reaction and, judging by his calm and seriousness, they thought he was seriously affected.

But during all this time, Dora never felt sadness, or even joy, or even boredom. It was a normal day for him. He heard Sana crying, he could have done anything to help her, anything would have worked at that moment.

She desperately needed any kind of help, she lost herself in the process of realizing her dream and couldn't erase the image of the boy who was after all more than an Avatar in her heart.

All she needed was a word, some form of support, but Dora never responded.

He looked at her and said nothing, he could have, he knew, but he chose not to. Everything that happened that day was his fault, every decision he made led to this day, but he never felt bad about it.

|Greed: 11%

|Sigma: 14%

Two days had passed in a gloomy atmosphere. Following their decisions, Marie and Lilith packed their bags and were ready to leave, Morgiana and Liliana initially wanted to return to the Southern Guild, to greet their friends one last time, but having to follow Freya to her mansion, they had to take the minimum of their belongings and leave for the capital the same day.

Leon had not left his room since his defeat. Meanwhile, Sana left the inn on the first day. Her final whispers indicated that she would no longer be an emissary and would return to the orphanage. Erick stayed next to Leon, to be sure that he would at least eat, and thus, the time of separation had come.

The night was cold, and the mood was finally more pleasant.

Lilith loaded her and Marie's suitcases into a train and returned to her friends' house.

"Okay, these are the last ones, I guess we're ready."

Dora looked at the train, feeling as if it was a little distorted by the weight of the load.

"... Don't you want to bring the rest of your room too?"

"Kuku... Be careful, you look better now, maybe I should try to give you an autograph with a bump."

"Oh, you wouldn't reach my head."

She jumped on him, barely held back by Morgiana.

"Come on guys, it's our last day, can't you make peace for once?"

"That's what I'm trying to do, I'm going to smash him into pieces!"

But despite the words, they laughed together. Liliana joined them and all 5 looked at the train.

"Well, I guess this really is the end."

"You are wrong, Miss Morgiana." Liliana, arms behind her back, was smiling. "This is just the beginning of a new adventure."

"Yeah, but not in the name of Shining Sword this time." Lilith rubbed her nose.

They remained silent for a moment, far behind, the nobles had decided not to get involved in this last conversation.

"... I'm going to sound cringe but... If I had one wish right now... I'd like to start from the beginning, just with the four of you." Morgiana said, in an unusually weak voice, but perfectly conveyed.

Dora glanced at her, then looked up at the sky and crossed his arms.

"... You know, we can't turn back time, but we can choose the future we want."

They looked at him, a little surprised. "I also want to go on an adventure with you, but not with the matter of strength or pressure of the rifts, just... Just like what we were doing the last... weeks..."

He held his head, confused by his own words, but a familiar head nudged his arm.

"You really are an idiot, you could have said that from the beginning and we would have followed you."

"Ah, Marie, you forget the whole purpose of this operation, to get out of dependence on Dora." Morgiana laughed lightly, then looked at the nobles behind her.

"Moreover, Dora also has his own story, we must respect that, we must also leave our own stories."

"... Idiora, you're only planning to be a knight, right? There's no husband promotion, right?"

They all laughed heartily, exchanged a few more words, and got ready to leave.

Lilith and Marie stopped at the door before exiting and rushing to their friends for one last hug.

"Promise... Promise me that one day we will really go on an adventure, even if I'm not strong enough." Marie muttered, with tears in her eyes.

"Marie... Only if you don't mind sticking to a monster like me."

"...You're... You better not forget that."

She buried her head in his chest, trying to hide her tears, soon joined by Lilith.

"We're going to get stronger, awesome and so beautiful that you won't have a choice, you better not replace us with some shady, snake-eyed women!"

He laughed and rubbed their hair.

"Don't worry, if you eat well, workout a lot, and drink plenty of milk, you will definitely beat all the evil snake women."

They also hugged Liliana and Morgiana and returned to the car. Through the window, Marie sends a farewell message to Dora.

"Message me as soon as you get a new phone, Zuri has my number!"

"Hm? Why Zurui? I already have it!"

"Because you're Idiora! Don't keep me waiting!... it's so hard growing up away from you..." She said the last part in a very inaudible voice and sank into her seat, her tears now uncontrollable.

"... It is so hard..."

The train left, under the stars, Dora waved his hand for a few seconds, then a minute until the train had completely disappeared into the horizon.

His hand then rested on his chest, trembling, Morgiana and Liliana wiped their tears and could not notice Dora's desperate look on the ground.

(It hurt... Why? Why does it hurt so much?... It's just ... it's just goodbye...we're not separated...we'll always see each other again...)

Because they belong to us.
