Helmut: The Forsaken Child - Chapter 312

# 312

Helmut

Episode 312

A peaceful and peaceful village life began for a short period of time.

A human life that is ordinary but unfamiliar to some.

Most of Helmut’s special group were people who were not used to this ordinariness.

Only Xian, who returned home, enjoyed his normal life.

Green Cana is a small town.

Even though Rodril was a spirit wizard and wealthy, it was a natural expectation that such a small town would not have a large mansion to accommodate many guests.

Xian’s house was not as big as I thought. A small mansion with only three floors.

However, Sian and his parents did not seem to be bothered by the large number of guests, and the group soon found out why.

“Now, shall we prepare a place for the guests to rest?”

Not long after Terra said that, two huts appeared in the large vacant lot next to the house.

No, I grew up. A house was created overnight. It was a mysterious yet amazing sight.

Terra planted seeds in the yard and called out to the spirits, and vines sprouted right on the spot.

The strong tree vines that grew and intertwined with each other gathered at the ceiling and became a sturdy hut with no gaps.

It was a fairly spacious living hut.

It may be a bit difficult to live in for a long time, but there is no problem in staying there for about a month. The bathroom was next to Sian’s house, so I could use it.

Area opened her mouth seriously.

“You could start a lodging business.”

“There is no way a wizard will starve to death. Especially if it’s a spirit wizard!”

Terra responded cheerfully and narrowed her eyes at the guests.

“I have put away the necessary items, so please allocate and use the huts yourself. I hope everyone has a comfortable life. Meal is at 9 o’clock in the morning. “I’ll leave the food in the kitchen and it will take care of itself over time!”

They will probably gather at 9 o’clock in the morning. This is a place filled with people who are accustomed to structured dormitory life.

After she disappeared, Sian waved his hand with a smile on his face.

“I’m going too. There won’t be any inconvenience. “I will summon the spirit of light in front of the house, so call me if anything happens!”

Now all we had to do was allocate rooms among the remaining people.

“I’m here.”

Area pointed out a hut far from Xian’s house.

“Oh, then me too.”

Helmut, who had naturally planned to share the same hut with Area, stopped for a moment when Charlotte looked at him with strange eyes. she asked firmly.

“Of course, as a woman, shouldn’t I have to share the same hut as Senior Area?”

It seems like they prepared two huts like this because they thought they could be shared by each gender. Asuka scolded.

“therefore! Helmut, do you still think about the old days? “Area looked like a man when she shared a room with you.”

“ah.”

Helmut made a sound as if he had finally realized it.

From then on, it seems that Area was firmly established in Helmut’s mind as his roommate.

“You child is being sneaky. Still, you shouldn’t try to open a new home in a place like this. Wouldn’t it be difficult if you had a child at your friend’s house? “I’m not even married.”

Asuka, who was making fun of herself, soon screamed.

“evil! it hurts!”

A crackling electric current was flowing from Area’s hand. A magic attack was cast without a spell.

Her purple eyes were surprisingly cold. Asuka screamed.

“You’re so bad, you use attack magic on people!”

But Area went into the hut without even giving him a glance. As if he doesn’t want to deal with me because it’s dirty. Charlotte also reacted coldly.

“That’s right.”

“….”

Asuka seemed somewhat discouraged. Igrel clicked his tongue and walked after Charlotte, who turned her back.

“I’m a woman too, so I guess I’ll be this way, right?”

In any case, Ygrel was a monster that could not be left alone. If you share a dorm with Area, Area will watch over her.

“The rest is this way.”

Helmut calmly entered the other hut where the three women were. Elaga was sitting on his shoulder as if it were attached to him.

I switched his left shoulder and right shoulder to help with his balance, but that was his seat anyway.

The inside of the hut, with a wide carpet on the floor, was clean and spacious and had the smell of the forest. Even people with an upset stomach will feel relieved as soon as they enter this place.

On one side, there was a thick mattress and blanket that could serve as a bed, as well as a basket containing daily necessities.

“The location must be close to the mountain. It feels like I’m at a training center somewhere.”

Asuka followed him in and muttered. Elaga looked around the room and grumbled.

[It’s a place the size of a nostril. I’m so frustrated, I don’t know where to live.]

“Elaga is too small now.”

[Yes, I am small. Enough to fit into a basket that even you couldn’t fit into!]

Since Elaga became smaller, she showed off her small things whenever she had the chance.

After living a noticeably large life all my life, I seemed to like my current smallness in some way.

Originally it was a handsome and majestic white leopard, but now it is a pretty cat with white fur.

And unexpectedly, the latter seemed to be Elaga’s preference.

Helmut reacted hesitantly.

“…I don’t really want to go in.”

Even though Elaga became smaller and prettier, Helmut was better when he was older.

Now he’s bothering me by using me as his vehicle.

Elaga said dismissively.

[It’s unfortunate that you don’t know the comfort of having your body hit by a round basket. Anyway, you should just stay in this grass-smelling hut. I will go out and sleep.]

After speaking, Elaga immediately jumped off his shoulder. Elaga is a monster. A monster that uses a wide territory. It must have been frustrating to stay in a hut like this.

Helmut looked at the back of the white cat walking away and made a request.

“You can’t fight.”

Elaga snorted.

[A fight only happens when it is a fight. There’s no way I could fight someone like that, right?]

And then he just disappeared. Here, no matter how weak Helmut was, he wouldn’t be in any danger, and he was going to enjoy his life as a cat to the fullest.

*

Even though there were no attendants, life at Xian’s house was as comfortable as that of a noble family.

If you see an object moving alone like a ghost, it is a spirit.

In places like this where the energy of nature is strong, spirits can exercise physical power without showing themselves.

Instead, people who see it will be shocked.

Helmut woke up at dawn, swung his sword and had breakfast in a wide open space on the side of the mountain.

Area seemed to have a burning desire to learn about spirit magic, so she had a long conversation with Terrana Azer about spirit magic in the morning. It seemed like this would probably continue for a few days.

But as soon as breakfast was over, she sneaked up to Helmut.

“They say the mountains are full of spirits. “I want to go. Would you like to go with me?”

“okay.”

That’s how the two of them went on a date. It was so sneaky that there was no one in the way.

Elaga, who left Sian’s house, became a sensationally popular figure in Green Cana in just one day.

Because it was a pretty cat like a doll, which is hard to find in Green Cana, where there are many wild animals and domestic animals.

“Wow, the cat is pretty!”

“Where did it come from? “Have you brought any guests?”

“Oh right! “I was riding on that black guy’s shoulder.”

“Meow?”

The people of Green Cana, especially the children, were friendly to Elaga.

As if they were possessed, they offered eggs and chicken breast to this arrogant cat, Elaga, attracting her attention.

Elaga took them and ate them and cried cutely. It felt strange but also good to see people making a fuss about how cute it was every time.

‘I don’t like it when you stroke my hair.’

If you don’t like it, just jump up and climb the tree. This was an experience that could only be enjoyed in the human world.

Xian was busy sorting out the luggage he had sent from the Academy piled up in his room.

His younger sister, Sienna, had also entered puberty and was arguing with him. It seemed like he wanted to test it against Sian, as he had shown considerable success in elemental magic.

Sian began to think about how to scold her. Because of that, his mind drifted away from both Asuka and Charlotte.

Asuka and Charlotte, who had been practicing swordsmanship since morning like Helmut, naturally ended up together, and as they acted together in the forest of Pahe, they became closer.

In the past, when we were sparring or because we didn’t have anything to say, we would just say hello and walk away, but now we have developed enough rapport that we can spend time together.

Asuka, who swung her sword once to digest breakfast and flopped down in her seat, opened her mouth.

“Coming here reminds me of the old days.”

“Are you thinking about old times?”

Asuka’s eyes narrowed. As if looking back on something.

“Yes, a long time ago, when I lived with my mother… we lived in a small town like this back then too. My mother wasn’t a spirit mage, so it must have been difficult for her because she had to do everything herself. I was young, so I didn’t have any difficulties. Those were good times. “If I had to say it, I was probably poor, but I was comfortable and free.”

It was a word with a strange nuance. The content would make Charlotte, who knew Asuka as a commoner, slightly tilt her head. Doesn’t that mean I’m neither comfortable nor free right now?

‘What happened to your father?’

Curiosity arose again in Asuka, but Charlotte swallowed it.

The fact that I lived with my mother in the past means that it is not the case now.

Although Asuka had many accidents, she was not an irresponsible person. The fact that he is moving around leaving his mother behind means that she is in a situation where he does not have to take care of her.

“I think my mother is more satisfied with her life now. “I wish I could be like my mother, but it doesn’t fit my personality.”

And Asuka added with an angry look in her eyes.

“I don’t even like my father.”

Charlotte stared at him blankly. I understand that Asuka, who seemed simple and clear, has her own story.

I thought that his personality and swordsmanship were not ordinary. She opened her mouth as if to comfort him.

“As you know, just because we’re family doesn’t mean we’re on the same page.”

Asuka’s expression softened.

“I guess so? Actually, I said something useless to you. “You must have been through a lot.”

Charlotte suddenly burst out laughing.

“Why are you laughing?”

“No, it’s strange to hear such a thing from Asuka-senpai. “I thought you couldn’t say something like that.”

Asuka frowned.

“What is he saying now. “What on earth are you looking at me for?”

“Well, you’re short-tempered and self-indulgent, but you’re a talented senior?”

“I can’t deny that.”

Suddenly, smiles appeared on the faces of the two people. They became more comfortable after a brief conversation.
