TEASER CHAPTER 4 PART 14
Shīna's
POV
"Anyway
it was such a big fuss in the morning ~~"
Mimuru
started talking about what happened at the main gate in a carefree manner
different from mine.
After
finishing the morning assembly, we, the second class’ students, were heading to the training ground for practical lessons.
We
were talking about the quarrel between the 1st class Kevin Ardinal and the 10th
class Mars Dickens in front of the main gate in the morning.
Originally,
the quarrel was caused by Kevin Ardinal talking to the same 1st-class Irisdina
Francilt, in which she was involved with "him" by her side.
"He"
A
boy at the bottom of the grade who was wandering around the city in the middle
of the night in a tattered appearance yesterday, the reason why he became
tattered was because of his unreasonable behavior of entering the forest alone,
and I still feel frustrated whenever I remember it.
Originally,
I didn't have a good feeling for him, and I hated him
ever since I found out that the cause of yesterday's injury was his own
reckless deeds.
He
was dying after doing something unreasonable. That act reminded me of what happened 10 years
ago.
The
Foskia Forest, where we elves lived, was one of the richest forests on the
continent.
Ten
years ago, before the invasion, the forest was overgrown with large trees that
lived for hundreds of years, and the branches that grew powerfully into the sky
had fresh fruits every season.
The
animals living in the forest supported their lives in various ways, and under
such a great current, their lives were blossoming.
My
family was a family of four, my parents and my sister.
In
the forest full of life, with gentle parents and sister, and all the elves of
the same races were living a warm life, and when I think about it now, that was
irreplaceable happiness.
However,
it was suddenly robbed.
The
forest that was our birthplace, and our home, was surrounded by flames. The
trees that I used to play with my friends were burned down. The lives of the
forest were eaten and defiled in front of me.
And
that demon beast that appeared in front of me. A curse-like beast that has been
filled with the filth of life.
I
was in front of the demon beast ………….
"Shīna
!!"
"……Ah"
"What's
wrong? You scared me. We've already arrived at the training ground."
I
had already arrived at the training ground when I noticed. Around me, my
classmates are already divided into their respective groups and checking their
specialized weapons.
I
shook my head and tried to shake off the scene I remembered earlier. Because I
remembered his recklessness, I seemed to remember my past.
