Return From Death 4
Darkness.
"Yes! Here! With this, Master can regain your human heart!"
Shiro is about to hand me the Ancestor's Ring.
"Ha!?"
It seems that I have returned to the scene where Shiro rejected the Ancestor's Ring's mental resistance (extra-large).
"Did I finally die..."
I'm relieved that I died.
Then, as soon as my heart relaxed and I felt relieved, I remembered the terrible, horrible, tragic nightmare of torture and humiliation that had taken place just moments before, and I burst into tears and broke down. I started shaking like a tin toy.
"Master... don't tell me you're back from the dead?"
Shiro, who noticed something strange about me, immediately read my mind and was at a loss for words when she saw my past.
"Such a terrible thing..."
Even Shiro, as expected, was surprised.
It was the cruelest and most miserable round, easily surpassing the gruesome life of the first round, when the filthy pirates dug their things in and were eaten alive.
"No more... I don't want to die anymore... I'll never go back to the 35th level..."
I transform into a mouse, escape into Shiro's chest, and curl up in a ball, trembling.
"Master……"
A few weeks later,
"Master, we have arrived at Amru Fortress City."
Shiro spoke to me for the first time in a while.
Apparently, I had returned to Amru Fort City before I knew it.
For the past few weeks, whenever I slept or woken up, I was haunted by the unimaginably cruel nightmares I experienced on the 35th level, and I remained in a daze, living in a world that didn't seem like a dream or reality.
"Yeah……"
"If we run away this far, even the Blackbeard Pirates won’t be able to come after us!"
"Blackbeard!?"
Just hearing Blackbeard's name makes me pee and my body starts to shake so much that my teeth chatter.
"Master! I've said it over and over again, but please don't pee on my chest!"
While Shiro was grumbling, she took me out of her chest, wiped the pee from her cleavage with a towel, then wiped the pee-covered me with a wet towel, and put me back inside her chest.
I'm going to spend the rest of my life inside Shiro's cleavage.
If I was inside Shiro's chest, Blackbeard wouldn't find me.
Shiro will protect me no matter what and will never betray me.
"Yes, yes. I will always protect you, Master!
I'm handy, so I can make a living as a craftsman without being an adventurer!
Let's live quietly together in an unknown city!
Master also wants to move away from your birthplace, the Amru Fortress City too!"
Shiro, who can read my mind, can see through anything.
I want to leave the Amru Fortress City, no, the Amru Dungeon, or more precisely, the 35th level, Blackbeard, as soon as possible.
While I was in the Amru Dungeon, I was worried that the Blackbeard Pirates would attack at any moment, so I shivered every day and curled up in Shiro's chest in fear.
By escaping from the Amru dungeon, I regained my composure and was able to speak again.
"My question is, is there an ideal place where you would like to live?"
"A remote town as far away as possible from the Amru Dungeon"
I answered right away.
"But I would like a city that has the capacity to sell the products I make!
If the town is too small, people won't understand the value of the products I make!"
Shiro looks very happy.
In fact, she feels very excited.
Shiro's pure white skin, like porcelain, was becoming a little reddish from excitement.
"Ah! I can see it! It’s the Amru Adventurer’s Guild!
Master, if you're going to leave the Amru Fortress City, you'll also have to say goodbye to the guild leader, Bruce-san!"
Shiro said to me as if she were my mother.
"I know……"
To be honest, I don't even want to show my face to the Amru Adventurer's Guild.
I want to erase my traces as much as possible.
If Blackbeard and the others found the stairs leading to the Amru dungeon, conquered the Amru dungeon, and visited the Amru adventurer's guild, they would definitely find out where I was.
"However, this may be the farewell for this life, right?"
That's right... then maybe I should say goodbye to Kenji too...
"That's right. Even though you were able to reconcile, I think it's not possible, or rather, it's cruel, for you to just disappear without saying anything.
Since you have been freed from the curse of mental resistance (extra-large) and have regained your original small and pure heart, cherish humanity and such!"
Shiro has been saying things like a human lately, even though she was a monster.
She even ate human flesh.
"That's because I knew that the Nem-Ram sisters were vampires with a title, and that even if I ate their arms, they would regenerate!"
At Shiro's sudden startling remark, the Nem-Ram sisters who were walking next to Shiro looked at each other with shocked faces.
From the perspective of the Nem-Ram sisters, Shiro is a suspicious monster who talks to herself.
Because from a while ago, Shiro was reading my mind and talking to me without permission.
Then Shiro suddenly says to herself that she ate their arm. They can't help but be horrified.
Needless to say, the Nem-Ram sisters silently distanced themselves from Shiro and hid in the shadow of their father, Drake.
