Part 2 Episode 77
Hargan
All of the Mervingers that Hargan had ever experienced were stubborn and bad-tempered.
Although I still love Arceus from ‘Spring’… But it’s still true, right?
In particular, Otto Hahn, who had brought her to Mervinger, had not listened to her to the point where he was still grinding his teeth.
I don’t want to do it this way, I don’t want to do it that way. I didn’t know why there were so many things I didn’t like, so I lived with the word ‘dislike’ on my lips.
Moreover, this guy was the head of the Mervinger family of the time.
There’s no way you can listen well.
“… .”
In the end, Hargan stared at Elric.
Elric felt her gaze and shrugged his shoulders.
“I understand why you look at it that way, but… . “Am I not the type of person who forces something I don’t like?”
“… okay. “Then don’t bother me any more and just get out of here.”
To be honest, Hargan still had a hard time believing it, but he waved his hand as if everything had gone well.
“yes! “Then I will go.”
Elric turned around without hesitation and headed back the way he came.
Then, as if showing off, he rolled up one sleeve and scratched the seal with his hand.
“ah… I won’t be able to use this for the rest of my life. I can’t help it. Arceus is going to be so sad.”
It goes without saying, but the seal of youth was clearly visible on the inner skin.
Her pupils, which had not even moved until now, were seen shaking slightly.
‘bingo.’
Although she didn’t seem to realize it yet, her hands that were draped over the chair were also gaining strength.
just as expected.
Quick!
The chair started to split, making a strange noise.
* * *
In fact, Elric didn’t think it would be easy to appease Hargan.
The fact that Otto Han and Hargan are in a contractual relationship was also something I heard from Chapter 6 of Winter a long time ago.
However, I also knew that the reason Hargan joined Mervinger was because of Arceus.
‘I heard you were anxious because you liked each other that much, right? ‘Ugh!’
Looking at Elric, if Mephisto had seen him, he would have shaken his head and asked if he was laughing again.
Crack!
Hargan glared at Elric as if he were going to kill him.
He figured out what Elric was aiming for.
‘Of course it is. I was planning on doing this from the beginning.’
If he mentioned Arceus when asking for a favor, he might incur his dislike, so he acted on purpose.
Pretending to know nothing, to distract you.
The problem was that even though I knew that the current situation was all Elric’s modification, my mind was wavering.
The seal he deliberately showed me had a strong scent of the person I had missed so much.
An attraction that cannot be ignored even if one wants to.
‘it’s annoying!’
I tried to protect my pride because I didn’t want to fall for Elric’s trick.
But what can you do?
Since you are a human being, it is inevitable that your emotions will take precedence.
-Arceus is going to be so sad.
Those words irritated me even more.
It felt like it kept circling around my ears like an echo.
Arceus is sad.
I hate it as much as dying. I didn’t even want to think about it.
Even if it’s because of you?
Of course, I know that Arceus would never be that type of person.
That’s just nonsense that Elric said.
But the thought, ‘What if that really happens?’ kept tormenting her mind.
at last.
“… Anyway… Damn Mervinger bastards.”
Hargan had to get up from his seat with his teeth clenched.
Before I knew it, the chair was completely split in half and fell sideways.
Even though he must have known that he had changed his mind, he still showed his back as if to show off.
Anyway, it was disgusting.
“at there.”
Elric looked back at her with joy in his heart.
Unlike his insides, his face still shows that he doesn’t know anything.
That sight made Hargan’s stomach boil even more.
“huh? “Why are you doing this?”
“… .”
Hargan glared at Elric as if he were going to eat him and waved his hand lightly.
Then, the bandage covering his right hand came off and something came out from inside.
‘… sickle?’

It was literally like that.
A sickle that would be used to cut down crops.
The only difference is that both the handle and blade are larger?
“The sickle is an object traditionally used for harvesting. At the same time, it is also an object that tells us that winter is coming soon.”
She continued speaking while throwing the scythe to Elric.
“Therefore, the sickle symbolizes abundance and harvest, but on the contrary, it can also be a symbol of death.”
Elric accidentally received the scythe.
I knew that Hargan’s weapons were unique.
Also, the person who gave it as a gift was Arceus.
However, I never thought I would get it in my hands like this from the beginning.
The iron blade that had turned reddish was particularly noticeable.
“From now on, catch me with that.”
Hargan’s explanation was simple.
He will never leave this hut and yard. Instead, you should try to hurt yourself somehow, by throwing or swinging the scythe.
Elric checked around to see if there were any other devices on the scythe.
Other than being hard, there were no special features.
“Is that really okay?”
I wondered if I should go this far since I had come to seek Hargan’s cooperation or learn her skills.
“It’s up to you to get what you get.”
Hargan suddenly disappeared, leaving only those words.
Whirling!
“Oh, well. “It’s difficult.”
Elric scratched the back of his head with the handle of his scythe.
It was Hargan’s movement that we only saw for a very short time.
Hargan’s movements were truly admirable.
Distinguished and sharp.
The wind seemed to have become itself.
Just by looking at her natural movements, I could see why she was considered the best among the Winter Six.
‘Movement worthy of a assassin… . Besides, I heard that this is not the end of Hargan’s organs.’
The life he showed when we first met him.
Even if you handle it freely, the range of use will be very wide.
So even if the test was limited to this small area, it was clear that it would not be easy to catch up with Hargan and even wound him.
For Hargan, it would be a Maginot Line to ease his feelings toward Arceus and completely drive out Elric.
However, if there is a problem.
‘… ‘It’s too easy for me?’
Although Hargan had no idea.
In fact, Elric could see her movements from beginning to end.
From the direction she wants to head to the position of her feet.
And every single little movement to maintain balance while moving quickly, everything.
Mind’s eye.
As long as she had these eyes that revealed all the textures that existed in the world, her every move was bound to be discovered no matter where she was hiding.
In other words, it was a compatible car.
‘furthermore… I can even tell where it will appear.’
Since I could intuitively know how much force she used when moving, predicting her location was not that difficult.
‘head.’
Whoosh!
Elric thought so and lowered his head moderately.
Hargan’s leg grazed sharply where his head had been.
her?
I thought I heard a sigh like that.
Even the sound of laughter followed.
He probably thought it was a coincidence that Elric avoided the attack.
Hargan moved quickly again.
‘door.’
Her body headed straight for the door of the cabin.
‘Head again.’
Then it kicked down the door and flew like a bullet, aiming for Elric’s head again.
This time, Elric avoided the attack by lightly turning his body.
Breathe!
I could feel Hargan looking embarrassed.
Only then did he realize that Elric’s avoidance of the attack was not just a coincidence.
and.
“【Continue】.”
Sigh!
Elric pulled out a long ice chain from the end of the scythe’s handle.
Then, he quickly wrapped the chain around his left hand and threw the scythe powerfully towards the bare roof of the hut.
Nettle –
It was a time when it felt like the scythe was moving very quickly across empty space.
grasp!
There, Hargan appeared and roughly snatched the scythe.
“… “You’re lucky.”
She glanced at the scythe in her hand and narrowed her eyes.
Then he threw the scythe in the air as if he was annoyed.
Elric pulled the chain and retrieved it.
“There is no limit to the number of times, right?”
“… Now once. Catch me in the next nine.”
“Despicably.”
“If you don’t like it, turn it off.”
Faaah!
With those words, she disappeared again.
however.
Nettle liquid-
grasp!
When the scythe flew straight towards me again.
Her expression was more rigid than ever.
“Uh, how… ?”
On the other hand, Elric also looked confused.
‘… Is it really too easy?’
It was so bad that I wondered if I could eat it raw like this.
* * *
Churrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr
Shhh!
Elric used the chain to swing the scythe in any direction.
On the surface, it seemed like it was done at random, but the destination of the scythe flying in the air was always the same.
grasp!
This is where Hargan stands.
“… Shit!”
She barely managed to turn and avoid Elric’s scythe.
How many times was this?
Fifth?
No, was it the sixth time?
I don’t remember the number of times.
However, one thing was certain.
No matter where she went, Nat found out where she was every time, like a ghost, and almost got hurt every time.
As someone who was once infamous as the king of the shadows, the fact that she was read by a magician rather than a person in the same industry was a blow to her pride.
The problem is that the results have nothing to do with such pride.
Sigh!
Elric immediately retrieved the scythe and flew it again as soon as he could lift his hand.
“Sigh!”
Whirling!
She quickly turned her body in the air to avoid it and broke into a cold sweat.
‘What the hell is this?’
No matter how much I thought about it, I couldn’t understand how they could find me so easily.
No matter how much you speed up, the scythe will fly at your head without an error.
No matter how much you use magical power, you are only dealing with pure physical ability.
Still, I couldn’t understand it.
Even in the first place, the purpose of this test was to continue the sneak attack, to make Elric feel the danger of death and to sharpen Elric’s senses.
As a bonus, his body will also become tattered in the process, so by restoring it, the Seal of Youth will also develop.
At the same time, I also hoped that Elric would get tired of the test and go out on his own.
An excuse such as ‘I gave myself the opportunity to grow the seal, but Elric was incompetent’ is created.
But what on earth does this mean?
Doesn’t it feel like you’re being hunted now?
Because of this, rather than attempting a sneak attack, they had no choice but to keep running away.
For Hargan, who had only experienced killing someone as a assassin, this feeling was truly unpleasant.
“Haaaaam!”
And he was yawning like he was bored!
I have never been ignored like this anywhere in my life!
The veins on Hargan’s temples stood out.
But it’s scary to do that.
Faaah!
“… .”
Scythes rushed towards him.
She looked at the scythe in her hand with a vain expression.
When she didn’t return the scythe, Elric yawned again as if showing off and said angrily.
“what are you doing? “What?”
Pop!
At that moment, a sound as if something was breaking came from Hargan’s mind.
“Anyway, these damn Mervinger bastards!!!”
Although it hasn’t even been half a day since I met Elric.
The frustration that had been building up inside me burst out.
Wizard who swallowed talent
