    Chapter Index

    Campfires burn and dry wood crumbles, lighting up every corner of the night.

    A hazy shimmering light fell on the tip of his nose.

    A vague flood of warmth.

    The Xu system’s eyes were slightly closed, and there was the shadow of fire on his face.

    He was remembering, the observations about Thalia, and the past that Thalia herself had articulated, and eventually came up with a reasonable explanation for all the anomalies.

    Because of that ugly, ugly face, because of that tragic, hurtful life.

    The girl subconsciously runs away from her undead-ized self.

    Put on the armor.

    Sword in hand.

    Approach the village as a “brave man” and gain the trust of the people.

    At the same time, the reason why Servia was wary of the Xu lineage’s identity as a sorcerer was because of the past events that had taken place.

    The sorcerer destroyed the girl’s home.

    It makes the girl change into a human and ghostly form.

    Actually.

    Even now, the Xu system could feel a sense of vigilance if anything, a subconscious behavior that was buried deep in the depths of the mind, fearful.

    “Lord Wizard, please ……”

    “Why did you save me?”

    The dry wood burned brightly and crackled.

    The orange firelight fell on the armor, reflecting a yellow-stained patina, and the undead maiden was a bit puzzled, asking the question that had been pent up in her mind for a long time.

    To this.

    The Xu system didn’t hide it.

    Straight away the girl’s courage touched him and, interested in the girl’s life form.

    “Your state is unique, maintained between life and death, always at a delicate balance, and I’m intrigued by that”, said Department Xu.

    It dawned on Servia.

    She kept her head down, looking through her palms.

    Touch your face again.

    Indeed, even today, when the undead are everywhere, one’s body is extremely special.

    Ordinary people would be scared when they looked at it, but when they were replaced by a sorcerer like Department Xu, as a matter of course, they would only feel curious, and even develop the idea of studying it.

    “No problem, please feel free to use my body.”

    The undead girl agreed quickly.

    She is the body that has died.

    There was no flesh and blood, only pure bone.

    The young girl didn’t mind lending her body to Xu System if she could help him in return for that life-saving favor.

    Also.

    Servia was also curious about her own body, what kind of state it was in, and perhaps, as a sorcerer, the Xu line could give a reasonable explanation.

    Both sides hit it off and decided to officially start the study tomorrow.

    The campfire swayed in the night breeze.

    Sometimes to the left.

    Sometimes to the right.

    Flutterby illuminates everything around it.

    Perhaps it had been too long since she’d had a normal conversation with someone, and the girl was extraordinarily interested, with an endless supply of questions.

    “Wizard-sama, how do wizards practice?”

    “How is the world out there, Lord Wizard, becoming now?”

    “Lord Wizard ……”

    “Lord Wizard ……”

    In the face of Servia’s inquiries, Department Xu patiently answered them one by one.

    It’s nothing.

    It is just that the soul that has been silent for many years is impatient to vent the boredom in its heart, and Xu Department can understand that kind of mood.

    At the end, after answering the last question, the Xu system asked:

    “Servia, have you thought about the future?”

    Later ……

    The jubilation came to an abrupt end.

    The girl became a bit silent, and with that shocked look, she answered with a forced smile, “I guess I should continue to be a Braveheart, after all, everyone here, still needs me.”

    “Didn’t think about leaving.”

    “Thought about it, but …… people need me.”

    Sitting in a crouch with knees clasped and cheeks bowed.

    Cervelia’s voice fell a little.

    Even the girl herself was a bit discerning as to which answer it was, whether it was that everyone needed a false brave, or that the false brave couldn’t stay away from everyone.

    Thumbs down–

    The Xu system’s fingers tapped the campfire.

    The flames, which had been somewhat dimmed, once again rose with swiftness.

    He didn’t bother to look at Servia, didn’t bother to look at the forlorn expression, but looked at the wildly dancing flames and spoke softly:

    “Servia, you’re actually pretty good.”

    “Are you talking about me, Lord Wizard?”

    “Uh-huh.”

    The young girl’s dismay was obvious, her turquoise pupils unable to hide her surprise, not thinking for a second that the Xu system, which had annihilated the Minotaur Undead with a single move, would praise the weak and small her for being so powerful.

    The sound of metal scraping against metal rang out.

    It was a collision between armor parts.

    “I think …… you have misunderstood.”

    Servia shook her head, dismissing Xu System’s claim, “I’m not strong, on the contrary, I’m weak.”

    “You’ve saved a lot of people, Thavia.”

    “But …… I’m not really brave enough to save everyone, and I don’t really have the power.”

    The undead girl was bewildered, still denying the Xu system’s claims.

    Is saving lives considered awesome?

    There are so many things a girl can’t do compared to the people she saves.

    She can’t resurrect her dead parents, can’t defeat the powerful undead, can’t save the lives that are fading from sight.

    She can’t do anything.

    “That’s already impressive, Thavia”, Xu system’s voice was still gentle, his eyes reflecting the blazing flames, the fire’s light and shadows crisscrossing the undead armor, forming a different color for the girl.

    Fighting when you know you’re afraid, fighting when you know you’re outmatched.

    Even the truly brave.

    Nor does it necessarily have the persistence of a girl.

    So, the Xu system felt that such a Thalia was awesome.

    Despite the ugly and hideous appearance, a monster in the eyes of ordinary people, but in the unseen spiritual level, the heart of the ten thousand bright, is the true meaning of gorgeous beauty.

    “I ……”

    The undead maiden sat, her hands, long ago dead bones, folded over her armor.

    She had a lot to say.

    For example, he himself did not have the greatness of the Xu system’s mouth.

    Another example is that she actually saves people because of her own loneliness.

    Lots and lots.

    There’s no end to what can be said.

    But in the end, all the words dissolved into the silence of the soul fire, and nothing more could be said, only the cold armor that sheathed the soul shuddered.

    “Boom!!!”

    Thunder rumbles.

    The rain, which had stopped, came back with a vengeance.

    Brave Cervia was shivering with fear.

    “Is everything okay, Thalia.”

    “Lord Sorcerer, I-I’m fine ……,” Thalia responded in a trembling voice to the Xu system, forcing her composure.

    This moment.

    The Xu system was a bit skeptical that he had complimented the wrong person.

    You saved G.One from dying.

    [And from G.One, she learned about her tragic life]

    [Sylvia Cloverfield]

    [The rising star of the Cloverfield family, who should have had a bright future and a happy life, became a strange half-human, half-undead being because of a necromancer’s spell.]

    [She’s a fake courageous person struggling in the darkness, and at the same time a real courageous person who fights to save people]

    [You recognize the girl’s accomplishments and establish cooperation with her, and in return for your efforts, Silvia agrees to allow you to study her body.]

    [Tonight, Thunderclap]

    [Civia the Brave meets a thunderstorm and loses despite her best efforts.]

    “G.One, Sylvia, is down.

    [G.I. Sylvia shrinks into a ball]

    “Lord Wizard, please, please don’t look at me ……”

    “A bit of a disgrace ……”

    So said Courageous Cervia.
