Hunter Academy’s Greatest War God

Episode 335

What the hell happened to you? Only then did Sandra come to her senses as the rain warmed her cold body with the warmth.

“Why…”

Sandra wondered. I thought everything was over, but why is my opponent hugging me so that my arm is broken?

The mercenaries, who were aiming their swords at Shin Yoo-seong’s sudden action, stopped moving, and Sandra only expressed doubts as she organized her complex thoughts.

“You said you came to stop the war. If that’s the case, if you kill me, the ringleader, everything will be over…”

Losing the sword, Sandra sat down as if her strength had been exhausted. The floor was shaken with rain, but Sandra didn’t mind.

“Why me…”

Just one question filled her head right now. However, instead of answering, Shin Yoo-seong shook his head and asked again.

“Before that… I want to ask you. Aren’t you embarrassed?”

“…is it unfair?”

Sandra gave a weak foot- and laughed out loud. Those questions didn’t even have to be answered.

Even the revenge he gave everything failed. I was so angry and injustice that tears of blood flowed from my eyes.

“Come on… what’s the use of those words?”

As Sandra clenched her fists and dropped her head in anger, Shin Yoo-seong nodded in a much softer voice.

“I just wanted to get to know you. A life in which precious people were lost due to false accusations and most of life was spent on the battlefield. It must be a life of regret and resentment.”

I’m sure we’ve had similar conversations before, but this time there’s a big difference. Shin Yoo-seong knew all about Sandra’s circumstances, and Sandra realized that Shin Yoo-seong’s uprightness was different from her thoughts.

I thought she was a pure girl who only dreamed of a beautiful utopia because she lived like a flower in a greenhouse, but Shin Yoo-seong’s appearance today was closer to that of a warrior than anyone else.

What kind of training did you have to go through to get that kind of power? What kind of heart did you live with? Power is not given for free. Obviously, he had to go through the process of cutting bones and vomiting blood.

Sandra thought Shin Yoo-seong’s words to stop the war were a fantasy of an immature young lady, but she was the one who couldn’t recognize the other person.

Shin Yooseong was strong.

He had a warm heart that could understand others and had the strength to follow the choice he thought was right at any moment.

“…sympathy?”

When Sandra, who had given up on everything, smiled bitterly, Shin Yoo-seong shook her head.

“It’s not sympathy. I think you should have a chance. …a chance to choose your own end.”

Yooseong Shin pointed to the outer wall of the castle, which was still at war, and said. Shin Yoo-seong was able to subdue Sandra, but he was not the one who could end this war without damage. That’s something only Sandra can do. That’s why Yooseong Shin looked down at Sandra and asked.

“…one last question. Now that revenge has failed. What’s your final choice? Are you going to meet your end on this beach with the people of the island of women who believed in you and followed you?”

Shin Yoo-seong’s words stabbed Sandra where it hurt the most. Without the pretext of winning the war, this war was nothing more than Sandra personally throwing those who followed her into a pit of fire.

“If not… I will help you.”

With those words, Shin Yoo-seong stretched out his hand, and Sandra looked up with a face of disbelief.

“Are you going to help me? bloody me? Why the hell…”

Sandra and the mercenaries of the Isle of Women were a nuisance to neighboring countries. Like hyenas, they moved between the weak and the strong to make ends meet.

“According to your standards, I am a wicked person. Saving me… what does it mean?”

“My purpose is not to punish you, Sandra, or to save Seiden. didn’t you say I will stop the war no matter what.”

Yooseong Shin didn’t like Seiden’s method or Sandra’s method. What does it mean to divide the two camps with the ambiguous word good and evil?

In life, anyone can be Seiden and anyone can be Sandra.

“So please change the ending of the story of despair so that there are no more senseless victims.”

The

moment Shin Yooseong reached out his hand.

Little by little, Sandra’s world began to change. The red-tinged world shone brightly, and the cold, pouring rain had stopped before I knew it.

Wouldn’t it be nice if you could belong to that bright light too?

“The day I went to the battlefield for the first time… The Ten Seal praised me and gave me a piece of bread. The guys who first came to the battlefield got scared and were busy running away… but I was the only one left unharmed…”

Sandra laughed weakly, giggling, and slowly searched for her memory.

Sandra wasn’t a fan of war, much less a bloodthirsty madman. He trembled with fear when he was in danger of losing his life, and there were days when he wanted to run away from the brutal war.

“He looked at me and said that I was different from the rest of the cowards… that I was really brave… but that was wrong.”

Is it the aftermath of unlocking the ability?

As the mana she had used so far went backwards, Sandra’s strength gradually drained from her body. The rain-soaked head felt heavy, as if it would sink to the ground at any moment.

Tuk-tuk-

Nevertheless, Sandra lightly brushed off the water droplets on her hair and smiled.

“That’s stupid. It wasn’t because I was brave that I didn’t run away. It’s just that running away was more frightening…”

Sandra covered the light with her hand. I was dazzled by the light that sparsely flowed through my fingers.

“Hehe… I suddenly thought of that. If I meet my end on this battlefield… Where will I go? Maybe I will be able to go back to my family.”

Sandra smiled and wept. I thought the tears I shed for the first time in 20 years would be as cold as the sea water in the archipelago, but they were warm enough to be undeserved.

“The reason I went undefeated was because I was a coward… I wanted to die… I can’t lose…”

Sandra, messed up, sobbed and laughed at what was fun.

“I just… wanted to go back. Back to the happy past…”

Sandra’s eyes, reddened by the flowering of her powers, returned to their usual self. All the mercenaries who watched her closely at the weak side that the always strong warrior first showed shed tears.

“Sandra-nim…”

“Sandra-nim’s great cause is so futile! Hehe…”

Yoosung Shin waited for Sandra with his hand still outstretched. The first burst of sobs and tears didn’t stop, but I waited patiently for her. He watched over Sandra enough so that she could use the opportunity that came to her for the first time without regret.

“The rest is your choice. Sandra. If you give up the war, I will help you. If Seiden stops you, I will protect you no matter what.”

All that’s left is Sandra’s share.

Tuk-tuk-

Sandra looked around as she wiped her tears from her messed-up face. When Sandra stopped developing her abilities, Seiden’s knights followed Shin Yoo-seong’s will and waited for their choice, and the regained knights sat down with their swords.

“I am…”

Sandra slurred.

20 years. It’s a 20-year promise.

It was not a value that could be changed in just one day. He was terribly afraid of the memories that would come back to him if he gave up revenge now.

Can you be brave?

Can I step out of the shadows and reach for the bright light?

Can you bear that weight…?

“I’m afraid… It’s only natural that my desire for revenge against Seiden was my everything. Without a goal, I don’t know what to do… I don’t know what life awaits…”

Sandra lowered her head, closed her eyes, and muttered. What is left of him who has let go of both his life as a mercenary and his position in the archipelago?

“…I will be left alone again.”

Wouldn’t the only remaining result be the same self as 20 years ago? What is the meaning of such a life?

The time when I just wanted to give up everything.

Staggering- Chin-

“Even if that’s the case, Sandra-sama… I’ll be by your side.”

Supported by Sumire, Feria struggled to comfort Sandra.

“Sandra-nim… is the one who supported my research, which everyone in the Mage Tower laughed at as a dream story. The reason I came to the Isle of Women is purely thanks to the trust Sandra-sama gave me… No matter what path Sandra-nim takes, I… will never leave her side.”

Feria wasn’t the only one who made the decision to follow Sandra. Most of the mercenaries on the Isle of Women, including Benian, whose hair stood on end after being hit with electricity, wished to remain by Sandra’s side.

“…Sandra-sama is our leader. He is the only one who gave us a place to wander without a place to go.”

Tuk-

While holding the sword on the floor, Benian laughed as well, and Sandra smiled and closed her eyes.

he is a coward

He was not brave enough to give up his revenge, and he was a fool who wanted to see his family again even if he died.

Nevertheless, Sandra had to be reborn. I had to get out of the dark shadows and live a new life in the warm light.

it was for myself

It was for those who believed in him, and it was also for the family members who had already passed away.

“It is the moment of choice.”

Blinking- Sandra opened her eyes and smiled at Shin Yoo-seong.

“Can you tell me your name?”

An unidentified girl who lost her memory and came to the island of women. A girl with tremendous skills enough to easily block herself. A girl with a warmer heart than anyone else.

Everything about Sandra was questionable.

“Shin Yuseong.”

I hoped that I would never forget that name.

“Shin Yuseong… that’s right.”

Sandra took Shin Yoo-sung’s outstretched hand. The bright light pouring in made me lose my mind, but it wasn’t a very bad feeling.

“My choice is to start over again with everyone. thanks to you …because I want to believe that there are things more important than revenge.”

Whether Sandra’s last words would be a lie to avoid a crisis or the truth was a difficult problem that even God could not know.

Dig-!

[You have succeeded in clearing the 20th floor through the hidden quest.]

[Hidden Quest: Sandra’s Light]

[Details – You opened Sandra’s wounded heart and stopped the war without much damage between the two factions. The mercenaries of the Isle of Women will remember you forever, and the bard of Seiden will sing of your achievements.]

‘But.’

He also acknowledged an ending like this, not a hopeless one for everyone. This is an ending that could only be reached because Shin Yoo-seong, who is not only strong but also has a warmer heart than any other hunter.

‘The tower acknowledged this ending.’

That’s why Yooseong Shin was a hunter who was closer to the ‘truth of the tower’ than anyone else.
