Regressor’s Life After Retirement

—————————————

[Go and tell it]

“Huh~.”

Until he met the elves, Daein was in a very good mood. I couldn’t help but hum, and the corners of my mouth that had risen to the sky didn’t know how to come down.

“boy. “Why did you take care of all this?”

Daein was opening the gift box that Golkan had brought him.

Inside the box were precious items that merchants from all over the world came across the wall.

From jewelry specialties to magical artifacts.

And at the top of the box was a pass with the Berger family seal.

The pass is specially coated and embroidered with gold thread to make it difficult to counterfeit, and is imbued with water-proof, fire-resistant, anti-corrosion magic.

Inside was Golkan’s handwriting.

『I guarantee this person’s identity.』

The great man chuckled as it seemed like Golkan’s personality was revealed in that short text.

“That’s cool.”

From now on, as long as you have this pass, you can freely travel to any country as long as it is not an enemy of the Principality of Hicks.

‘If I just stop by the Elven Forest, I can easily get to Teru Kingdom.’

The great man thought so and relaxedly leaned back on the seat.

Next to him, two children were creating a strange scene.

Youngshin Jang first says one word in Korean:

“Mom.”

Lily said the corresponding word in Gaia.

“mom!”

The two kids were holding something that looked like a conch shell, and whenever they exchanged words, it vibrated and the words were stored inside it.

Wooooow!

The conch shell was an artifact that allowed people to learn languages quickly and was a very valuable item.

Of course, that too was a gift from Golkan.

“dad.”

“dad!”

“mister.”

“mister!”

“carriage.”

“carriage!”

The two children stored language in a conch shell by listing the words they knew. Later, if you spoke one language into the conch shell, you could hear the language entered by the other person repeatedly.

At that time, Jang Young-shin hesitated for some reason and said a new word.

“…i like you.”

Without thinking, the girl translated the words and said,

“I like you!”

The boy’s cheeks turned as red as autumn leaves.

‘How much?’

The great man looked at this clever yet innocent boy and smiled.

I can guarantee that when that guy was alone, he would shout ‘I like you’ thousands of times into the conch shell.

Then the conch shell will say “I like you” in Lily’s voice.

Of course, the girl in real life had no clue about that. Lily asked, tilting her head.

“Why aren’t you doing more?”

“…I will do it. “Buy, buy, buy…”

As if he couldn’t bear to say that, Jang Young-shin turned his face, as red as an apple, to the side and said.

“apologize.”

“apologize!”

‘Ugh. ‘You still have a long way to go.’

The great man clicked his tongue and turned his head to look at the princess and the others, to be exact, at Leonard.

“Old man. “Are you feeling okay?”

“…It’s okay.”

Leonard looked 10 years older overnight.

This was because he had to force his mana up with his old and weakened body and even engaged in a fierce fight.

The old knight’s eyes were vaguely open, like a candle before it goes out. It wouldn’t be surprising if I didn’t open my eyes tomorrow morning.

But the wrinkled face was smiling softly.

“The princess will be safe now. yes?”

Leonard had a truly happy face.

However, on both sides, the princess and Hawkin looked at the old man with sad eyes.

“Leonard….”

“Sir Leonard! Please be patient. “There will be a way to restore your health when you reach the Elven Forest!”

The great man scratched his chin and said.

“Hey, old man. See you later…”

Unable to finish his sentence, the great man turned his head out the window.

“Youngshin. “Stop the carriage.”

Everyone looked nervous at the firm voice of the man.

Soon the carriage stopped and everyone in the group except Leonard got out.

The party was now in the central mountains.

From here, it wasn’t strange to encounter many different races and monsters.

However, the presence that Daein felt just now was not that of a monster.

‘Monsters wouldn’t watch us secretly like this. As if being watched.’

Crash.

The great man took out Zeus and loaded the bullets. He said, pointing the gun into the bushes.

“Are you coming out? Or do you want me to come out?”

“…….”

After a while, shadows walked out from between the bushes. The movement was so secret that not even a rustling sound was made.

“Elf?”

Their true identity was a dozen elves dressed lightly and armed with bows and thin swords.

Among them, a blond male elf walked forward.

The blonde elf stopped at an appropriate distance and said.

“Are you part of Alina Reinhardt’s group?”

Although the voice was polite, it was also a voice that conveyed caution and hostility.

‘Did you know we were coming?’

As Daein narrowed his eyebrows and thought this, Alina came to the front of the group.

“I am Alina Reinhardt.”

At the same time, she took off her freckled mask.

Wow.

The exotic face of the half-elf was revealed.

Her appearance was nothing short of that of the elves, who were called the embodiment of beauty. Rather, it created a more lively and unique atmosphere.

“Ah…”

The blonde elf admired her face for a while, then came to his senses and politely greeted her formally.

“I am Garland, the explorer of Sephersil, son of Yurin.”

Explorer.

The elves who were tasked with scouting around the elven forest were called that.

In general, they played roles such as reconnaissance, surveillance, and guidance, and also engaged in combat when necessary.

Among the elves, those with a quick body and quick judgment of the situation took on that role.

Therefore, their status was much higher than that of ordinary elves.

Garland continued.

“The Great Elder sent us.”

The moment he heard those words, Daein remembered a rumor he had heard before.

‘I heard that the elf elder has the ability to foresee. I guess it was true.’

On the other hand, Alina looked very touched.

“Grandma made me…”

Sefersil, the forest of the elves.

The land where her mother was born and raised, and where her grandmother is there to help her gain strength.

When I thought that the elves were there to meet me, I felt much more at ease.

“We will take care of it from here on out.”

Garland and a dozen elves approached the carriage.

‘I’ll feel more comfortable now.’

Daein also relaxed.

Even if monsters appear on the way, the elves will take care of everything.

“Then we should go back to the carriage…”

That was when the great man looked back at the group and said that.

“Before that, let me check one thing.”

Slurp.

Garland drew his sword. His expression was as cold as ice.

“Are there any objects or people in the group that are imbued with demonic energy?”

Garland treated people other than Alina poorly.

Moreover, they treated humans as if they were a lower race than elves.

“…What are you doing?”

The atmosphere suddenly becomes cold.

The great man frowned, but Garland did not change his oppressive attitude.

“The elf forest, Sefersil, is a sacred land. “It is our job to protect that place.”

The other elves were already pulling out their swords and bows.

“What does that have to do with us?”

Garland wrinkled his nose and said in response to Daein’s question.

“I sensed demonic energy from you all from afar. “It was incredibly dirty and unpleasant.”

“so?”

“Unless that problem is resolved, no one except Alina will be able to enter Sefersil.”

“…what?”

The expression on the person’s face as he asked the question was also stiff.

“What kind of bullshit is that? “We’ve come all the way here. Are you telling us to just go back?”

Alina, embarrassed, tried to intervene between the two, but said,

“Wait a minute. There seems to be some kind of misunderstanding…”

The two men did not back down from each other even an inch.

“There is no misunderstanding. “My senses have never been wrong.”

“Hey elf. “Are you trying to joke with me?”

“That’s unpleasant. “I don’t mess around with humans.”

“This bastard…”

The gazes of the two men clashed fiercely in the air. The princess was at a loss, not knowing what to do between them.

When the great man saw that, he clicked his tongue softly.

“Tsk.”

At most, some strange guy comes and finds fault. I was annoyed, but I couldn’t turn the game around here.

‘Garland. It seems like a name I’ve heard before…’

It was a name I couldn’t remember, though I could vaguely remember it.

Anyway, in the end, the great man pulled Shalit from his belt.

“I think it’s probably because of this.”

Slurp.

Shalit exposed his blade to the sunlight and gave off a magical aura.

A magic sword so powerful that it would later be recorded in history.

An elf sensitive to magical energy could easily feel its energy.

“…It’s a magic sword.”

Garland’s face showed disgust as if he was seeing something dirty.

The great man put Shalit back into its sheath and held it out forward.

“Can I leave this to you guys?”

“I don’t want to touch that dirty thing, but…”

Garland frowned, looking very displeased.

He was famous among explorers for being sensitive and stubborn. In particular, Magi was the energy to which he reacted most sensitively.

“I can’t help it. “Bring some cloth.”

After a while, Shalit was wrapped in a thick cloth and handed over to Garland.

The great man, whose hands became lighter, shrugged his shoulders and said.

“Then, since all the problems have been resolved, let’s go.”

But Garland didn’t seem to be satisfied yet.

“Not yet. “I can still sense demonic energy around here.”

The blonde elf sniffed and walked past the giant.

The great man said with a hardened expression.

“hey. Stop it, right? Are you planning on going through all your luggage?”

Ignoring the man’s words coming from behind him, Garland began to look at the group that came out of the carriage one by one with an arrogant expression.

Soon his gaze stopped in front of a girl with flame-red hair.

“!!”

Garland’s pupils gradually dilated.

The elf’s expression, which was usually undisturbed, began to shake with extreme anxiety.

Lily asked with a puzzled look on her face.

“why?”

‘An abomination!’

Although he had an innocent expression on his face, he couldn’t fool his senses.

All of the

horrible flesh suppressed at the bottom of a gigantic evil soul that was

so terrifyingly powerful that it

could explode at any moment was sealed within the body of this little girl.

Garand drew his sword and aimed it at Lily. At that moment, the girl’s eyes widened.

On the other hand, a thin smile appeared on the elf’s lips.

“foulness. “You were hiding your identity well.”

“hey. “What are you doing now?”

Daein spoke from behind, but Garand ignored what he said and looked straight at Daein and his group.

“Stupid things. This is a being baptized by the devil. In other words, the devil.”

“No…”

The demon wearing the mask of a young girl was seen surprised. The big eyes wavered and the small body shrank.

“I’m not the devil…”

Garand laughed at the sight.

“An abomination. “Are you saying that you, who were baptized by the devil, are not the devil?”

At that moment, the girl, recalling the trauma of the past, trembled and denied it.

“I didn’t do that…”

“…I told you to stop. “It’s okay if you don’t go into the elf forest.”

The man’s lowered voice was heard again from behind, but Garand ignored him again.

The pleasure of discovering hidden evil exalted Garand to the fullest.

“You cunning devil. “You may have tried to lie about your identity and enter Sefersil, but you cannot fool my eyes.”

An aura formed on the tip of Garand’s sword. A twisted smile formed on his lips.

“You will be punished by me right here…”

At that moment, Garand felt a tremendous sense of death behind his back.

“Tell me how many times. It’s a dog. ”

“!!”

The moment an eerie voice sounded in his ears, Garand swung his sword sideways without realizing it.

Whick!

The sword split the air.

And when the great man’s voice was heard again, his fist was hitting Garand in the face.

“I remembered. “What the hell were you doing?”

Bah!

Garand, with a broken nose, was lying on the floor.

Daein grabbed Garand by the collar and lifted him up. His voice was eerily calm.

“I told you three times. Stop it. “Why do you chew on people’s words?”

“Ugh…”

When Garand was attacked, the elves drew their weapons and aimed at Daein.

“Garland!”

“Get your hands off me right now!”

The great man looked back at the elves and laughed.

“Couldn’t you have stopped your leader when he was rude to the kid?”

Kwa-kwa-kwa-kwa-kwa-kwa!

The great man raised the mana of his entire body.

The Pacheonshingong immediately raised the mana of the Danjeon. As the momentum spread in all directions, I could feel the elves being shocked.

“You guys tried to kill the kid first. So even if I kill you all, it’s self-defense. Right?”

I could feel the elves shaking their bodies.

It was then.

“Why is this happening all of a sudden…”

Daein turned his head and looked in the direction the voice came from.

I saw the girl who had come here in search of her only hope in life crying.

“Now wait a minute. “There must be some misunderstanding!”

He saw a young wizard who was embarrassed and didn’t know what to do.

“…….”

An old knight who didn’t have much time left to live was bowing his head to him.

My head felt a little cold.

‘I’ll tolerate it once.’

The great man let out a soft sigh and said as he put Garland down on the floor.

“Go and tell the elder. I won’t go into the elf forest. So you should come find me yourself. The deadline is two days. If you don’t arrive within that time…”

Daein’s eyes shined coldly.

It was only tolerated once.

“Tell them I’m going to burn it all down.”
