Abandoned Retired Warrior Decides to Return to Farming

Chaeeng-

Serine and Nike. The battle of the two warriors resounded in the plain where there was no one else.

The swords of those two people collided dozens of times, but the balance of the confrontation was gradually leaning towards Nike.

“Ugh.”

Serin groaned in pain and took a step back.

Nike’s sword that rushes fast and fiercely. On the other hand, Serin’s specialty was to subdue opponents with anomalous and flashy tricks.

However, due to the aftereffects of her ankles, the longer the swords were held together, the more her posture collapsed, and her swordsmanship was also disturbed.

– Remember, Serene. It’s improved a lot compared to before, but I’m not in a state where I can run or fight yet.

Before leaving the village, I remembered what Aerith had said to me.

At the same time, when things didn’t go their way, water filled Serin’s eyes.

‘Ugh. At the most, I was proud of myself!’

As I recalled the lines I had just spit out while taking form, shame came over me.

crying. I was just trying to get some compliments on this occasion.

Serin looked at Nike and resented her.

“Still not paying attention. Don’t disturb me and I’ll fall down quickly!”

However, no matter how much Serin cursed, Nike’s attacks only grew stronger.

“Ahhh…!”

Serin screams while struggling to block the attack.

She looked down at her ankles in indignation.

‘Even if my feet were fine!’

Originally, Serin’s skill was several numbers higher than Nike’s.

She should have won by now because there was a difference between the skills and experiences she had accumulated over the years that could not be ignored.

However, while staying in the village, he lost his sword and gained plump weight, and the fact that he injured his ankle and became limp turned the results upside down.

Thanks to him, now, her feet are starting to be pushed back little by little due to his raging offensive.

Seeing her like that, Nike laughed triumphantly.

“Hey, you were pretending to be a hero or something, but it wasn’t a big deal after all!”

“You, you… cancel those words immediately!”

“Huh. Why should I? You guys have been able to keep your mouth shut with that kind of skill up until now.”

“Ugh.”

At that, Serin bit her lip and glared at Nike.

Those words implicitly included not only her but also Cael behind them.

Thanks to this, the impatientness was evident in Serin’s sword, which had been tightened with drugs.

‘Oh. one Taiwan. Only one!’

On the contrary, he even undermined his master’s reputation because of him.

But the impatience that I had thought about became poison.

“It’s stupid.”

Seeing her shaken both mentally and in her posture, Nike laughed so hard and said.

As he swung his sword away without missing a glimpse of her, Serin’s body was exposed.

And aiming at the body, Nike swung the sword with the back of the sword.

“Damn!”

Serin, who later chased his sword with her eyes, tried to stop it, but there was no way.

His posture was completely disturbed to block, and his ankles were uncomfortable to avoid.

Serin, who sensed defeat in front of an attack that would normally be sufficient to deal with, gave strength to her stomach and tightly closed her eyes.

But she didn’t feel any pain.

Chaeeng-

Serin’s body trembled at the sudden sound of the sword.

However, what he felt after that was not the pain in his stomach, but the body temperature of the hand wrapped around his shoulder.

‘What, what?’

As Serin carefully opened her eyes, Cael was standing next to her, blocking Nike’s sword.

“I told you. Don’t overdo it.”

A word that he boldly brings out while glaring at Nike.

Serin sighed at those words and lowered her head.

Just don’t go out, Cael put his hand on her head as she thought so.

Feeling the warmth, he looked up and sighed.

“Well done.”

Serin looked up at Cael carefully at those words.

“yes? But, in the end, we lost…”

“It was because of my ankle. Anyway, it looks like a maid now.”

“ah······.”

Serin is troubled by the warm words she has never heard before. He looked at Kael and smiled.

“Sigh… eh hehe.”

And I thought it was a good idea to step forward, and I took his outstretched hand.

*

Serin sat on the carriage with the help of the coachman, while Nike was surprised by the result of her match.

‘Is Serene this weak?’

At the result that ended more bland than expected, Nike grinned.

And he was obsessed with his own power.

“No, I was strong.”

Nike swung the sword round and round, enjoying her victory to the fullest.

After all, he was a hero, so there was no need to shrink from the appearance of sealing the Demon King.

Not long ago, there was no need to run away because of the fear of the demon king.

He also defeated Serin lightly, so it must have been worth trying with the Demon King who defeated Ashua.

I regretted that I got scared and ran away to see Lowe and his colleagues being harmed for nothing.

‘huh. Next time we meet, I will repay you for that shame.’

With that promise, Nike waits for the driver to come to apologize.

However, the relationship between the two was still not understood.

“But how did that really happen?”

Nike muttered as she saw Serine being cared for by the coachman.

That Serin is the owner. How much less is he a human and nothing more than a coachman?

She was the royal family of a country, no matter how minority it was.

When she was in the Empire, no one dared to touch her.

But now she looked like a pet dog who was happy to be petted by the coachman.

‘It’s pathetic.’

Nike kicked her tongue as she looked at her as she sat on the wagon, supported by the coachman.

Did he forget his shame even if he was a hero in his name? It’s not enough to lose, so stupidly laughing like that.

A dress that didn’t fit the body even if it was a bird I hadn’t seen had gained weight, and the dress looked vulgar.

“So, is that Nike?”

Then, he heard his name come out of the driver’s mouth.

Serin answered yes to that question and nodded her head.

Nike grinned at the light words and deeds of these two people and sharpened their teeth.

“Whoa. How dare you put my name in your mouth?”

Apparently, not only the coachman but also Serin have lost their minds yet.

With that thought in mind, Nike pointed the sword at the approaching coachman.

But for some reason, he did not draw the sword that was attached to his waist.

Instead, he raised his hand and mocked Nike.

“What are you doing? Don’t rush.”

“What?”

The coachman stood in a crooked position and smiled.

“Huh. I’m going to teach you this time.”

“This guy is arguing that a mere coachman only blocked one attack!!”

It wasn’t enough for her to look down on her, but Nike received the words she had just said and was furious.

Unable to bear the driver’s actions any longer, he ran towards him.

And surrendered to his anger, he drew his sword faster than ever.

It was the moment when I stretched out my sword thinking that this arrogant one will realize the fear of a hero with this one blow.

“Wow!”

However, contrary to expectations, it was Nike who made the scream.

single blow. I felt a terrible pain in my liver, and then my leg was relieved of strength.

And as if collapsed, he knelt on one knee in front of the coachman.

“Uhhh…”

Nike can’t even breathe properly due to an unexpected attack.

But the opponent didn’t even give him a chance to catch his breath.

puck!

“Shut up!”

The coachman’s kick hit his face exactly, and he leaned back.

Nike struggles with pain and shame that she has never experienced before. He covered his face with both hands and trembled.

‘Gee, how did this happen now!’

Nike patted her broken nose and fell into confusion.

I couldn’t accept the situation that happened so quickly.

The sword he thought he had swung suddenly fell to the ground, and his body was screaming in pain.

On the other hand, the coachman who attacked was still standing on his two legs.

Maybe it happened to that guy? this me?

“Damn it, don’t be funny!”

I picked up the sword that Nike had dropped without recognizing it.

Then he got up and sharpened his teeth, staring at the driver again.

‘Lord, I will kill you!’

That’s when he rushed to think of that and was about to swing his sword.

“I can’t take it anymore!”

Between the curtains of the wagon, someone sprinted out.

And a scream came out of Nike’s mouth when she saw her.

“why why why!”

Nike repeats the same words over and over like a broken doll.

At first I thought I saw it wrong.

But the unforgettable face was right in front of him right now.

Because of that fact, Nike couldn’t even breathe properly, so it felt like the world had stopped.

“Why is the Demon King here…?”

One word he could barely squeeze out, shaking his chin.

But no one answered that question.

Serin watched with a clenched chin and giggled, and the coachman was watching indifferently as if he had lost interest.

And the Demon King passed by those two and was walking towards him.

bum bum.

The sound of the demon king’s footsteps echoing in the still land.

Even the sound of footsteps walking was enough to give the illusion of shaking the heavens and the earth.

When I met her directly, my confidence that I could defeat the Demon King just before was gone.

In Nike’s eyes, the tiny girl in front of him felt hundreds of times larger than the cloud-piercing giant.

“Oh, don’t come. Don’t come!”

Nike, who has already lost all of her former will.

He screamed so much with all his wishes, but the Demon King did not listen.

She walked silently and stopped right in front of her, looking down at herself from above.

Then he squatted down and stared at him with his expressionless face.

“Ah, ah, ah, ah, ah…”

Nike is terrified and repeats only screams and screams.

He felt the fear as if those large eyes were about to swallow him.

And then, after a long silence, the Demon King opened his mouth.

“Hey. Why are you saying things like that to Cael from a while ago?”

“What, what?”

But those first words were incomprehensible to Nike.

He asked with a frightened face, but the Demon King muttered to himself.

“I don’t like you very much.”

After saying that, the Demon King looked at the driver behind him and asked.

“Cael. Can he do what he wants?”

At the words of the Demon King, Nike had no choice but to open her mouth stupidly.

A single word from the Demon King came as a shock that could not be compared to when Serin called him master.

The Demon King, the Demon King is getting permission. Even to humans who are mere coaches!

Nike could hardly accept the situation unfolding in front of her head.

And looking up at the driver who had the right to live or die, Nike realized that something was going wrong.
