BXBX NOVEL Chapter 348: The Truth Is in the Heart
“Was I… able to respond to him?”
『You need not ask about the obvious now, do you?』
I muttered as I fell from the sky, and Tre’ainar replied.
『Well done, child.』
“…… yeah……”
『You earned this victory on your own, with no outside help…… unlike Hiro and the others, who always fought with help from their comrades…… you have done well. Also, I was able to witness Gouda’s majestic figure, as he met a spectacular end without fear for what little life he had left……』
It was a sad moment, but it was still etched in the hearts of Tre’ainar and I. Gouda was the coolest bastard ever.
I was able to witness the end of such a guy, and I was able to respond to him.I was much prouder of that than defeating a Six Supremacy or anything like that.
“…… Tre’ainar…… well then… all that’s left is…….”
『Mm-hmm.』
And with that, the battle was over, and so was my role.
The rest……
“Big brotheeeeeer!!”
“Oh…….”
“【Fluffy Big Brother Carry】!”
Maybe she heard Gouda yelling for her to catch me, or maybe she couldn’t wait any longer, but Espie flew towards me as I fell, caught me with her levitation power, and clung to me in mid-air.
“Haha, Espie…… you saved me.”
“Uh~~~~~~”
Espie clung to me, burying her face in my chest. She moaned, her shoulders shaking.
“Big brother …… you stupid stupid stupid ~ stupid idiooooot!”
“Ouch, ouch, ouch…”
Espie smacked my chest over and over again.
I tried to stop her by patting her on the head, but I couldn’t because my right arm was dead and my left arm was in bad shape.
“Ou, ou, ouch, Espie……”
“Ugh~, fighting Gouda all by yourself, doing all those dangerous things! I was so worried! I really was! I was!”
“O, oh, I see…….”
It must have made her very worried.
I mean, even in this day and age, there aren’t many people who can stand up against the Six Supremacy, so I guess I’m just as stupid as Espie says.
“Ah, he’s coming down! Brother! Brother!”
Then, just as I slowly landed on the ground, Slayer also ran towards me.
“Brother, are you okay…… your arms are… ah, really, Brother… Larou’iph! Patch Brother up!”
“Ah, ah, umm…….”
“Seriously Brother…… but…… so cool.”
At first, he looked unhappy with me, but then his eyes lit up, as if he couldn’t contain his excitement.
Good grief, absolutely adorable.
“Hey… what happened… to Lord Gouda…?”
“Hmm? …… yeah…he’s gone.”
“…… is that…… so?”
On the other hand, Larou’iph asked anxiously as she put her hand over my arm and cast a healing spell.
That’s right, she was part of the Demon King Army, she probably hasn’t been able to come to terms with one of the Six Supremacy dying in front of her.
And……
“Fortune smiles upon us, Young man… for we have become witnesses to legend…”
“…… Chieftain……”
“For what you’ve done, our eternal gratitude.”
The Chieftain praised me.
Then Espie and Slayer leaned in close to me.
“That’s right, Big brother! You defeated the Six Supremacy! No one else has done that yet, not even the Seven Heroes, but you did it! Big brother, you’re the best in the world! Nfu~! My Big brother is the best in the world ~!”
“A Legendary…… Hero…… yes, Yeah, you really accomplished that great a feat, Brother! Everyone should know more! The world needs to know more about how amazing our brother is!”
They praised me, calling me “legendary”, “hero”, and “the best in the world”, as if they were genuinely happy for me.
It didn’t feel bad.
But……
“No…… that’s not right, Espie, Slayer. The one who defeated Gouda…… the Hero Hiro……”
“”…… Huh??””
Even if the truth is different, we cannot tamper with the records engraved in history.
“Why, Big brother! You beat him!?”
“It’s not that I beat him, Gouda reached the natural end of his life~, so I just sang along with him……”
“I don’t get it, Brother! Why don’t you tell the truth? Are you going to give credit to the Hero?”
“It’s fine…… this way …….”
Espie and Slayer were naturally unconvinced, and extremely upset.
“The truth of history…… is in the hearts of everyone here right now.”
But that’s okay.
And then……
“You seek not to make a name for yourself…… is that it, Young man? No…… Earth Lagann.”
“””Ah……”””
“Chieftain ……”
Then, after hearing the Chieftain’s words, the Espie and the others came at me with surprised faces.
“That’s right! Hey Big brother, is your name Earth? Are you related to Hiro?”
“That’s right, Brother. There’s just so much I don’t understand……
“I’d like you to tell me too. And about transcending time…”
Maybe only the Chieftain knew everything. About me for the most part.
But Espie, Slayer, and Larou’iph didn’t know.
They don’t know what I am.
And……
“For the time being, we can’t just take it easy. If we keep messing around, the Allied Forces will arrive…… let’s talk while we move to the underground laboratory…… I’m sure everyone is worried too.”
“Bu~, I want to hear about it right now~…… then, let me know as we all go to the mountain of Japone from now on!”
They don’t know that my journey in this time period ends here.
“No, I’ll tell you right away……
“Huh? Really?”
“Brother. I really want to ask about it… but I’m sure you’re tired too, so I can’t force you to answer…you can do it later.”
I’m going to tell Espie and Slayer, who have no doubt that I will always be with them……
“No, right away.”
“”?””
I have to tell them now.
About who I am.
And we……
“I…… due to an item from Shiznautmy, though I’m not sure if it was an accident or not… I came here from over a decade in the future…”
“””????”””
“As I said, my real name is Earth Lagann. I’m the child born from the marriage of Hiro and Mamu, two of the Seven Heroes.”
“””………… Hohe???”””
We…… have to say goodbye……
Author’s Note
Thank you for your continued support.
I’m glad to have received a lot of feedback. He only appeared in a few chapters. However, I am glad that many people like Gouda, who survived so bravely.
From the beginning, I had planned for this Gouda to be “the first Six Supremacy that Earth fights without the help of Tre’ainar”, even though I didn’t mention the final boss in the past arc. Unlike Paripi and Jamdi’el, I didn’t want to have Tre’ainar advising him in the fight against Gouda. That was my sentiment……
“I, I have to beat him by my own strength, otherwise Tre’emon won’t be able to return to the future with peace of mind.”
It was like this. I’m sure many of you expected this.
Also, I’m glad that many people had the same trauma with “hot”.
Also, the character and appearance of Gowda is based on “Chirotan Popopo”, who is on the cover of the third volume of my debut work “Reborn In Another World – The Long, Long Journey Until I Reunite With You“. You don’t have to buy it, so if you’re interested, please Google it.
Now, the end of the journey is in sight, but please stay with us a little longer.
Special Shoutout to all of my Patrons. Thanks for the Overwhelming Support!! Tier Rewards up on the Patreon Page soon.
