EP.79 Pure Love of Real Siblings
A quest appeared.
"Desire Side"
◆Pure Love of Real Siblings
-Objective: Help the younger brother trying to protect his dying older sister.
-Reward: 50000 DP, All stats +15
'A quest? It's been a while.'
The reward was tasty.
Only a sucker would give this up.
Just then, the door opened and someone came out from inside.
I couldn't sense any mana.
"W-what?"
I laughed as I looked at the quest details and the person. Wow, what is this.
Is this really a revelation from heaven?
A man who looked like he had just become a college student hurriedly brought a spear and aimed it.
It was a dark red spear as if splattered with blood.
But his posture was clumsy.
No, everything looked clumsy.
"Who are you?!"
He was barely holding the spear with both hands. Even that was trembling.
At that level, he couldn't even kill a passing cat.
Of course, he's probably like that because he's scared. But more than that, it seemed like he just didn't have the strength.
I deliberately stood still.
Rather, the other person trembled.
"Who are you? Fuck, did you follow my sister?!"
"Put that spear down."
"Shut up!"
"You won't be able to hold it for long anyway, right?"
"Kuk...!"
He gritted his teeth as if hit in a vital spot. But he still didn't lower the spear.
Huh, so the person he's trying to protect is his sister.
Pure love, it's pure love.
"Don't you want to protect your sister? Then have courage. Don't be reckless."
Courage and recklessness are different.
Those who confuse the two die early.
He was flustered at my words.
Though his face was half-doubting, he still didn't lower the spear.
I glanced outside.
At some point, the surroundings had become pitch black.
As if darkness was added to darkness.
And I sensed presences.
One by one, as if being laid out.
As if ordered food was being placed on a table, they were increasing.
This presence is familiar. Zombies?
I shook my head.
"Let's get to the point. You want to protect your sister, right? I'll help."
"Huk, heuk, but my sister, already!"
"She's still breathing, isn't she?"
"How do you... are you a player?"
"And you're an ordinary person, right?"
As expected, he flinched as if hit in a vital spot again.
He's so honest. In times like these, you need to try to hide your emotions a bit.
"For an ordinary person, you're holding a player item. Not bad. But we don't have time. They're coming soon?"
He seemed to know that well. He lowered the spear while sobbing.
He even knelt down.
"P-please help! My sister is about to die. Can you revive her or something? Healing!"
"There's no such thing in this world. Who knows, the Celestial Horse Demon might do it."
"My sister got hit by a bullet shot by some zombie while trying to protect me. But she can't move since then. Her breathing keeps getting weaker!"
"She was poisoned. How vicious."
"M-my sister, heuk, I want to at least make her passing comfortable. I don't think I can, heuuuk!"
The guy sat down and cried.
Looking down at him, something ached in a corner of my heart.
Even though he himself might die.
Rather, he's worried about his sister who's about to die.
These guys. Putting aside whether they're real siblings or whatever.
They really like each other.
I heard Baltane's voice from behind.
"Heuhit, what will you do? Shall we help the pitiful prince?"
I approached the guy.
I put my hand on his shoulder. The moment he looked up at me.
Jjaak!
I slapped his cheek.
"Keoheok!"
"Don't make crying sounds. Isn't she precious to you? Didn't she end up like that trying to protect you?"
"W-who said she isn't?!"
"Then stop crying and think about fighting. Why? Have you given up because you're not a player?"
He looked at me in surprise.
I guess he needs to try hiding his emotions. This guy is hopeless.
Soon he shook his head and shouted.
"I'll fight too! Even if I die!"
"That's the spirit. Fight with a kitchen knife or spear. If you really love her, put your life on the line."
"Heuk."
"Shall we take a look?"
I slightly opened the room door and looked inside.
Black hair spread out below.
A faintly rising and falling chest line.
A woman with an already pale complexion was lying down.
"At most an hour left..."
"Heuk, sister...!"
"But I'm envious. A sister who sacrifices her life for you. You bastard, you're blessed with good people."
Suddenly I envied this guy.
To think I would envy someone.
I felt elated at this emotion I hadn't felt in a long time.
I gestured for Baltane to come closer.
"Hey."
"Hm? What?"
"You can't save her, right?"
"Nope! Even if I could, I wouldn't do it! Uhit♥"
She shrugged her shoulders.
Well, how could a mere succubus use resurrection.
Then there's only one thing I can have her do.
"Then stand in front of the door and block the zombies coming now."
"They're ghouls."
"Ghouls?"
"People confuse them with zombies but they're actually a bit different. Those guys secrete extreme poison."
"Is that what she was hit by. Such bad luck."
"Then I'll just stand in front of the door as you said♥"
Baltane really stood in front of the rooftop room door. I'm glad she's at least doing that.
At the same time, the rooftop entrance door was smashed.
"Keheek!"
Humans with diamond-shaped heads and dark skin burst in.
"Heuk, it's them!"
"Watch carefully. I don't know if you'll survive from here, but later you'll have to become someone like your sister to someone else."
The ghouls poured in endlessly, literally.
Like a leaky basket placed under a faucet, they poured out crazily.
Elation, elation from battle.
The guys recognized me and charged while spraying saliva.
I was grateful.
Because I wanted that kind of attention.
I advanced holding a club and gun.
I raised the gun and fired suppressing shots.
It's nice to call it suppressing fire.
The ghouls hit by bullets collapsed one by one. It didn't matter.
I hoped they would entertain me more.
I hoped they would give me more attention.
Isn't this our stage?
"Geek!"
One ghoul pounced like a flying squirrel. I dodged and swung my club.
The club drew an arc and smashed the ghoul's head.
One by one, the charging guys.
I definitely beat them to death with the club.
If ghouls tried to escape to the side, I grabbed them with shadow tentacles and shot them dead.
The ghouls died, splattering pitch-black bodily fluids everywhere.
In the middle of that, I enjoyed the slaughter while humming.
Under the bright full moon.
I enjoyed the stage like that.
The wave of dopamine rushing in every time a ghoul's head burst.
I even felt ecstasy at the sense of immersion of focusing everyone's attention.
I pull the trigger while exhaling heated breaths.
I swing the club while moving like dancing.
The ghouls, supporting actors of this stage, died without fail.
"Wait, be careful!"
A warning from behind.
One ghoul leapt and bit my shoulder.
"Ah, no!"
The guy despaired as if it was happening to him.
I should calm him down.
"Don't be surprised! Poison doesn't work on me!"
Unfortunately, I'm immune to all poisons.
I nonchalantly brushed off my shoulder and broke the ghoul's neck.
I focused on fighting again.
Then I heard a dull sound from behind. Did he fall while watching?
No.
The guy was desperately swinging the spear shaft to fight off the ghouls.
His struggling appearance was quite tragic.
"Get away, fuck off! I'll protect my sister! She ended up like that because of me!"
The guy poured out words as if pleading.
I smirked and stepped back.
I took out the 625 badge.
"Then watch this too. It's a hero."
"A hero?"
"Transform."
I put the badge in the belt and spread both arms wide.
[Heroes signal: 625!]
"Freezing, flames! The best combination!"
In that state, I manipulated freezing and flaming currents and released them from my fingertips.
The world spinning chaotically.
I saw the ghouls decorating the background dizzily get swept up in the currents and die one by one.
I swept them all away.
I uppercutted the jaw of the last remaining ghoul.
The ghoul floating in the air.
I leapt towards it and delivered a kick.
The ghoul shattered into hundreds of fragments as soon as it was hit by the kick.
"Mission, clear."
I deactivated the transformation.
I looked around the rooftop.
The scene of the rooftop strewn with ghoul corpses came into view.
A shitty smell wafted from everywhere.
It was brutal, but beautiful.
The ghouls today did their job well as supporting actors.
"Oh my, your sister isn't breathing!"
"Sister!"
At Baltane's words, the guy rushed into the room.
When I followed, he was holding his sister and wailing.
"No, heuk, sisteeeeer!"
The woman looked peaceful despite having died.
I yawned and received the side quest reward.
'Sweet points, and stats galore!'
I smirked and stepped back.
My business here was finished.
"Let's go."
"Oh my, are we leaving? Without watching more of this touching scene?"
"It has nothing to do with me now. From now on, it's up to him. Whether he lives tenaciously or realizes his place and commits suicide."
Where should we go?
We should probably jump past the nearby station.
By the way, where should we rest?
We should probably rest since it's late at night.
"Wait!"
The guy approached holding the spear while crying. Wasn't our business finished?
He held out the spear.
"Why?"
"Take it. It's something my sister treasured like a treasure, you use it."
"I think you're misunderstanding, I..."
"I know! Just take it. My sister always said precious things like this should be owned by those worthy. So take it!"
I stared at the guy blankly.
Though his face was wet with tears. Though tears were still flowing.
His eyes didn't waver. They were firm.
Did he grow up already?
I scratched my head and reluctantly took it.
I don't mind if it's free.
Baltane smiled and pretended to cheer. Even though she doesn't know what it means to cheer for someone.
"Live bravely! Though it will be hard."
"Mmm..."
I leapt to the opposite building silently.
My left hand holding the spear felt heavier than usual.
As I was about to check the spear's specs.
I swallowed hard. I doubted my eyes.
