Episode 194 The boy who longs for a hero (2)

Jaehyun The face of the dead Extra D is seen in front of the boy.

The children surrounding them shook their heads in disbelief at what they saw.

There was a deep silence in the gymnasium.

They all thought that janitor A might really kill the boy.

committed a murder

In some circumstances, the boy did something incomprehensible.

but.

mate.

The manager’s reaction was completely different from the children’s thoughts.

“good. Good job. Yes, you might be a pretty usable guy.”

The caretaker praised the boy.

he said.

Don’t get caught up in the same ethical consciousness. Now, all of you are tools for him, or even trash.

yes tools.

The boy was sure of his identity at that moment.

* * *

After that, the atmosphere of the orphanage began to change little by little.

After the death of Extra D, the children changed little by little.

They started killing each other, no matter who came first.

At the gym, sometimes outside. But nobody stopped it.

Just struggling to survive. It was their natural instinct.

However, the boy who was the culprit behind the situation just laughed as if nothing mattered.

He didn’t kill him with some grand goal.

Just kill or die.

That was the principle of action that moved the boy.

‘Damn it...... It’s not easy to keep thinking. It’s the effect of synchronization.’

Meanwhile, Jaehyun was struggling to get away from the boy somehow. I felt my consciousness engulfed and my thoughts clouded.

‘It’s not enough just to resist. If I continue like this, I will be completely deprived of my self.

There is only one way.’

To find out the boy’s identity as quickly as possible while remaining conscious.

Getting out of themed dungeons.

That was Jaehyun’s best idea.

Jaehyun’s consciousness faded again, and the boy’s ego began to completely dominate his body.

* * *

Months passed like that.

There was no one left in the orphanage except for the boy.

all dead

no killed

The boy had no doubt that this was the best way.

Just after all the children had died miserably, a man came looking for the boy.

he said.

“I am the crow that serves Odin by his side. Enter Asatru. You too will become a crow and become his follower.”

His name was Hugin.

the boy asked.

“What will I get if I serve Odin?”

“Odin gave you this sword.”

Hugin handed him a rapier.

The name of the sword is Tyrfing.

It was a sword commissioned by a descendant of Odin to be made, and it was one of the few demonic swords in the world.

“This sword will make your three wishes come true. Just keep in mind one thing. After granting your last wish, this sword will destroy you in return.”

The boy nodded.

He decided to make a wish he had wanted for a long time.

“I want to have a family.”

Tyrbing granted his wish.

* * *

Family.

What is a family really?

It was something the boy had been thinking about for a long time.

He had no feelings.

I didn’t feel anything, and sometimes I knew it made me stronger.

But he wanted to have it. family.

I made a wish because

“I want to have a family.”

The magic sword granted the wish.

His adoptive father and mother. Got two parents.

It wasn’t bad at first.

The boy felt the satisfaction of having a family.

“Try some of this. Beef stew.”

“Now, this is a gift. It’s a fairy tale book. It may be too trivial for you to read.”

My parents were warm people.

Even if they didn’t give birth to a boy, the love they gave was real.

However, the boy could not understand their blind love at all.

Why are they giving me food?

He decided to find his emotions to relieve the boredom of life.

He did anything to make him feel good.

No false love, no sympathy, no salvation.

But in all of them he couldn’t find anything.

In the meantime.

Hugin, realizing that he was in search of feelings, approached the boy and said:

“I have all your feelings. I will return one to you.”

From the beginning, Hugin had feelings for the boy.

Ever since I killed children in an orphanage. His emotions were lacking.

The boy nodded.

Of course, he couldn’t feel joy, sadness, or overflowing emotions.

He had only a vague consciousness that he was getting something back.

* * *

What kind of feelings did Hugin return to himself?

The boy didn’t know.

Hugin just said that one day you’ll know what that feeling is.

As a boy, it was a puzzling story.

I was spending my day like that.

The boy accidentally found a clue to the feelings he had regained.

“Pleasure.”

The boy accidentally killed someone on ‘his’ order.

When the sword slashed the human throat, he could feel an indescribable thrill and pleasure.

the boy realized

That the emotion I have regained is pleasure.

When you kill a person, that emotion becomes clearer than ever.

After that, the boy started killing people.

It was from then.

He started reading a fairy tale that his foster parents had given him as a gift.

It was a typical cheap fairy tale in which a weakling boy in a rural village grows up to become a knight.

The boy began to admire the fairy tale hero.

I want to be like him.

The boy had such a vague goal.

* * *

The boy continued to kill people for pleasure, but he soon got tired of this too.

The world was full of weak things. To the boy, they were not even a plaything.

In the end, he went to Hugin to get his other emotions back as well.

However, he said he could never give the boy back any emotion other than pleasure.

Reluctantly, the boy took out the magic sword and made a second wish.

The boy’s wish became clearer because Hugin said that the magic sword was not allowed to ask for the return of emotions.

“Let me fight an enemy stronger than me.”

Tyrbing granted his second wish as a matter of course.

Tyrbing said.

[Become a hero in Midgard. Then you will be able to fight an enemy stronger than you.]

The boy was delighted and came down to Midgard.

Odin’s name was there, but he had a greater desire to fight a stronger foe.

The boy came down to Midgard and started helping people.

It didn’t make any sense.

It was because I saw a scene in which a hero saves people in a fairy tale.

Humans began to worship themselves.

Soon after, the boy became a hero of Midgard.

First Awakener. that was his nickname

One day when I was spending every day like that.

A reporter asked him who was frantic to fight a stronger enemy.

“What is your name?”

The first Awakener. The time when the boy who became a hero was about to part his lips.

Suddenly, the scene stopped like a video when the stop button was pressed, and my mind returned.

Soon after, the system asked.

―Immersion in the novel 《The Boy Who Longs for a Hero》 has ended.

―Please tell me the boy’s name.

“Ju won.”

Jaehyun was convinced of the boy’s identity.

―You have cleared the special quest 《The Boy’s Identity》.

―Acquired the active skill «Cold-blooded».

―Transfers the user to the 3rd basement floor of the laboratory.

At the same time that Jaehyun answered correctly, the Tirving that the boy was holding emitted light.

Soon after, the son-in-law suddenly lit up and his body was sent somewhere.

The voice that Jaehyun heard before the halo of light disappeared.

“I was waiting for you.”

Ju won.

Even now, as the first Awakener, he still felt no emotion other than pleasure.

However, his smile did not change at all from the past.

Jaehyun was clearly aware of this.

Joo Won whispered happily in a low voice.

“Has my second wish come true?”
