Chapter 5: Nameless village



Chapter 5: Nameless village

Outside the cave was a deep forest.

Toru instinctively breathed in the air to the dense scent of wood. He touch the trees that he could not see in the city he used to live in.

The vegetation is overgrown and the visibility is rather poor.

But Toru knows where he should go.

?

It\'s a weird feeling to know where you\'re heading, even though it\'s a foreign place.

"Is it the memory of the previous soul?" (Toru)

The memory of the former owner was still faint.

Toru tries to read the memory.

The memory I could read was very little.

It was almost full of holes and there was no consistency.

When I read the memory patiently, tears suddenly spilled from my eyes.

"Ah... what? What is this?" (Toru)

Tears overflowed one after another, as if the faucet had broken.

Toru himself is neither moved nor sad.

The body responded to something in the memory.

(To shed tears like this. What kind of sad person was the owner of this body...)

Waiting for the tears to stop, Toru arranged the information found from his memory.

First of all, this world must be called "Eargard".

The owner of the body was named Lid.

It turns out that Lid lived in a small rural village without a name.

And the reason why Lid died.

Lid\'s parents were already dead.

Lid has lived alone since his parents were lost. Sometimes he helped farmers, but in many cases Lid hunted in the woods and forage there.

Lid was isolated in the village.

The cause of isolation is his appearance.

"...A cursed child?" (Toru)

While muttering, Toru touched his bangs.

The transparent hair was black. Also, the eyes are black although they are not visible to him.

On the other hand, no one in the village has dark eyes and hair.

Just because they had different eyes and hair color from themselves, Lid was called a "cursed boy" and kept away from the villagers.

I don\'t feel like going to the village as it is.

However, Toru\'s back is now covered with blood, and the fluid of the caterpillar is also attached. I was even starting to feel a little hungry.

Even if I leave this place for another, I should change clothes and secure food.

"Well, I\'ll be going there!" (Toru)

Life\'s a game you have to win to be able tolive.

Toru shoved all his fears under and headed for Lid\'s estranged village.

The village where Lid lived in is a place that can be reached after 30 minutes walking on foot.

Surrounded by simple fences, the village was lined with twenty houses, surrounding a large house in the center.

All the houses are made of wood and are so fragile that a strong person can break it with one tackle.

The main product of the village is wheat.

Villagers live here and work on the farmland outside the village.

The men who are working are outside the village. The ones remaining are women, children, and the elderly, whose limbs do not move.

When everyone saw Toru, they looked like they bit something bitter and turned their eyes away.

The villagers quickly returned to their houses to avoid Toru.

Within a minute of entering the village, every person disappeared from the visible area.

"This is... terrible. Lid often worked here."

Toru makes a prayer for Lid, who is no longer in the world.

If Toru lives here, he decided to leave the village within a week.

Toru\'s feet headed to Lid\'s home without hesitation.

When he entered the house that was more haphazardly made than the ones around it, hj=e noticed a single hook and a bow and arrow.

There is no furniture, no bed.

It\'s like a vacant house, as there\'s almost nothing but the basic needs are there.

There was a piece of cloth in the corner of the house.

All the pieces are connected. It\'s pretty shabby for patchwork.

Lid used this piece of cloth instead of a futon.

"Lid...you should have lived well..."

Unknowingly, my eyes tears-up a little bit.

Toru headed to a well shared by the villagers with a bucket made of more patchwork than the original bucket.

When Toru made his way to the well, the villagers who have reappeared outside run back into the house to escape.

"On the contrary, their reactions are interesting..." (Toru)

Will they come and go from their homes every time they see me approach or leave?

It\'s like a joke or a gag show.

Toru drew water from the well a small laugh escaped from his lips at the ridiculously comical image he imagined.

I returned home, washed my body thoroughly with the water, and changed into new clothes.

"Ah... refreshing" (Toru)

The stickiness and tackiness I felt on my back disappeared. He felt so relaxed and refreshed.

I felt like I was alive again.

Unfortunately, there was only one change of clothes.

After staring at his bloody clothes for a while, he decided to leave them on.

Lid was stockpiling meat because he lived on hunting.

Take a piece of dried meat hung on the ceiling and took a bite.

"Oh, the taste is decent. I want pepper alongside it if possible?"

It tasted quite gamy, but it\'s not bad.

Toru bites the dried meat and throws the rest into his inventory.

He also threw in the bow and arrows inside. Toru who has [Magic Sword] has no need for other weapons but Toru has no money. Of course, Lid didn\'t also have any money.

Money cannot be created from nothing. It might be terrible to Lid, but the weapon will be sold for cash.

Even if the selling price is two coins or three , it is better than nothing.

Having finished eating the dried meat, Toru looked around the whole house. Then he close his eyes and pray.

Instead of praying for Lid.

Toru put Lid\'s thoughts into the prayer for the house and Lid\'s parents who built it.

"thank you for helping me" (Toru)

Clement returned from the field for lunch, and was frightened when he saw a familiar black-haired black-eyed boy.

"...It\'s a lie" (Clement)

The boy was a villager here, a cursed child called Lid.

He was also the man Clement and his colleagues pushed him this morning from the cliff of the limestone cave.

It was about 10 meters high and it should have been a cliff impossible to climb.

Besides, Lid\'s head was broken by the impact of the fall.

--At least as far as Clement saw, it was supposed to be a fatal wound.

So why is Lid wandering around this place?

"Hey, is that Lid?"

"Why is he alive..."

Robert and Tuck returned with Clement shook their lips.

"Isn\'t he dead?"

"Didn\'t he fall from his head and bled-out?"

"Oh, why is he alive...?"

Clement and his buddies pushed Lid off the cliff because he was a cursed child.

Black hair and black eyes bring disaster to this village. Yes, the village head said.

In fact, since the birth of the Lid, wheat yields have declined among the villagers. In addition, the number of times the village is attacked by demons is increasing.

As a matter of fact, Clements is ignorant and does not know whether the yield is really decreasing or the number of attacks by monsters is increasing.

But if the chief says so, there is no need to doubt.

What\'s wrong with the village is all Lid\'s fault.

If Lid is gone everything will be better.

That was the common understanding of the villagers.

Clement and others got up for the village.

First, they eliminated the parents of Lid, who gave birth to a cursed child.

The crime of bringing the cursed child to the village is great.

Let Lid\'s parents pay for that in blood and their death!

Clement and three others lure his parents to a cave that is said to contain spirits, and thrust them off a cliff.

Clement\'s work on Lid\'s parents quickly spread throughout the village. But they didn\'t receive any blame.

Because it\'s for the village.

Justice is on their side.

There is no mistake in their actions.

Yes, Clement and others thought so.

His parents were killed successfully.

After that, only the cursed child remains.

Clement\'s group also lured Lid in the same way then knocking them through the cliff.

Lid was bleeding from his head.

And they thought he was dead.

However, he now reappears before Clement and others.

"... after all that, he is truly cursed."

Three of them muttered in a quivering voice.

He won\'t die even if they kill him. That possibility made Clement\'s heart and soul freeze.

"He\'s a devil. It\'s not good for him to live."

"Oh, this time I will definitely kill you!"

"Kill him and bring peace to the village!"

Clement\'s mood was completely that of a hero.

But is there a brave man who finds in joy when killing?

Is this really the right thing to do?

Such a question was quickly wiped out by the "voice" rising from his heart.

Clement and the like have set their eyes on the enemy.

With bloodshot eyes they head for Lid\'s house.

The door was opened all at once, and the lid inside was attacked by three people.

They lifted him up and headed towards the cave.

"I have some work again from noon tomorrow. I\'ll throw him away in the limestone cave."

"Yes"

"Oh"

Robert and Tuck hold an unconscious Lid that, while Clement leads.

〝Kill? 〝Kill? 〝Kill? 〝Kill?

"Kill, kill, kill, kill, kill"

Such murmuring leaked from the drooling mouths of Clement and others who rushed to the limestone cave.

But no one realizes what they are talking about.

Rather than that, they were only thinking of making sure Lid is dead.

Arriving in front of the limestone cave.

All they have to do is drop Lid over the cliff.

From behind Clement who was thinking of their next action,

"I wonder what I\'m going to do, it\'s the same killing method. Don\'t you people learn." (Toru)

he heard Lid\'s voice.
