Chapter 155 I hope you remember yourself who once tried your best
The task of finding herbs was successfully completed.
If there was any regret, it was that I didn’t get paid, but took an IOU back.
Rod and Elfman’s opinion was that Mr. Kalut’s family was in a bad situation and he needed to recuperate for a while. If he gave them his last savings, he would have a very difficult time in the future.
But Mr. Kalut and Mrs. Weiss also had their own insistence. Even if they couldn’t repay the benefactor who saved their family twice in a row, they couldn’t not give him even the most basic reward.
Although Mr. Rhodes said that Jimmy had found most of the herbs, how could Jimmy get them without them?
Rod had to propose a compromise, writing an IOU, not charging interest, and returning it within a hundred years.
By the way, the meat of the two Labans was used to pay for the meal and accommodation fees. The unfinished meat was kept for Mr. Karut to replenish his body.
The two returned early the next morning. Before leaving, they did not forget to formally apologize to Mrs. Nepol next door, and the compensation was a Laban leg.
The people in the village were very interested in this ferocious beast that would attack people, and they all went to Karut’s house to buy it.
Rhode didn’t care about the rest of the matter, hoping to earn some starting capital for their family and start a new life.
It was a very happy and fulfilling thing to be able to save a family on the verge of breaking up with one’s own strength.
Rhode found that as his strength increased, he could make more money to make a living.
Even if he didn’t become a wizard in the future, he could still make a living by hunting and selling meat, fur, etc.
Of course, this is the last resort. If possible, he still hopes to continue living peacefully in the guild like now.
It would be best to find a gentle and beautiful wife.
Inside the carriage, Rhodes touched the fur that had been preliminarily processed. The next step was to find a suitable tailor shop.
A piece of fur that looked the same was placed on Elfman’s legs, folded very well.
The skinning master in the village said that the quality of that piece was better than Rhodes’s, so Rhodes decisively gave it to him.
Elfman’s attention was not here now, his eyes were blank.
Rod, the confidant sister, decided to go online for a while: “Are you still thinking about that?”
”…” Elfman nodded. Rather than thinking about the siblings, he was thinking about his own affairs. “Did I do something wrong at that time?”
Rod thought about it seriously and asked back: “Did you do your best at that time?”
”Of course! The three of us don’t have any extra strength! Otherwise, I wouldn’t…”
”Have you ever blamed your sister? Blame her for taking you to take that dangerous mission, blame her for not Strong enough, blame her for not being able to protect…”
“How is it possible! It’s not my sister’s fault that the mission went wrong! Besides, Lisanna and I are also independent wizards, how can we always rely on my sister for protection!”
“That’s it.” Rod looked at him, “Lisanna is also an independent wizard, even if you are her brother, don’t underestimate her determination.”
“But, but I don’t have the consciousness to defeat the Beast King, I personally…” Elfman held his head with both hands, thinking of what happened that day, the man was so regretful that tears rolled down his cheeks.
“It’s not you, it’s the Beast King’s consciousness. Have you forgotten that you have tried your best?” Rod put his hand on Elfman’s shoulder, “You three are all equally kind. I believe Lisanna would like you to be kind to yourself, to remember that you have tried your best, and to accept yourself as you are. Guilt and self-blame can’t help you become your ideal self, nor can they help you become the brother she admires, right?” In fact, Rod had been thinking about these words for a long time, since the day he planned to help Mira untie her knot. If he said it normally, maybe it would only touch her a little bit, and then return to calm. Just like the last time he persuaded Mira in the coffee shop. But in this situation, it might have more effect. “Accept yourself as you are… the way Lisanna admires…” “Brother Elf, don’t cry anymore.” This is the scene when he was ostracized in the village. “Just like my sister used that power to protect us, this time it’s our turn to protect her.”Sister.”
This is the scene when he just learned to receive magic.
”Elfman, do you think we should… are we qualified to try to forgive ourselves?”
This is what his sister said to him a few days ago.
The past scenes emerged in his mind, and Elfman wiped the tears from his face. Although it was difficult, he wanted to try again.
”I won’t cry again… man!”
But your tears didn’t stop… Rod sighed in his heart, it was a bit useful.
He thought about it, and there was no need to say more today: “Man.”
”Don’t tell others.”
referring to the fact that he cried like this.
Rod smiled and said, “Okay.”
After getting off the car, Rod and Elfman handed the fur to a tailor shop for processing.
Knowing that they were wizards of Fairy Tail, the boss gave them a discount on the grounds that the wizards of Fairy Tail often took care of their business.
Especially a man named Gray and a man named Natsu. In addition, Erza would occasionally come to customize some special clothes.
”I only knew about this place after listening to Natsu’s introduction.” Rhode said, “He said that they can make clothes that cannot be burned by fire.”
”Yes, that’s right. That’s the design we are proud of. Do you want to customize one?”
”What’s the price?”
The boss gestured: “Just this amount.”
”Forget it.” Rhode felt that he didn’t really need this kind of special clothes.
…
Elfman adjusted his mood before returning to the guild and pushed the door open with Rhode.
As soon as the two entered the door, someone rushed out in a hurry, holding a task list in his hand.
The guild was the same as the previous two days, with only a few people who did not plan to participate in the S-level exam, which seemed a bit deserted.
There were a few task lists sparsely posted on the bulletin board, which seemed much more spacious than usual.
Even so, Nabu still stood there, reading every task word by word. When he was tired or finished reading, he would order a drink to rest.
”Oh~ Isn’t this Rod and Elfman?” Makao greeted, “Are you also going to challenge S-level?”
Rod waved his hand: “No, I just took a task to earn some pocket money.”
And I haven’t earned it yet.
Wakaba said: “What? I thought you were going to challenge the record of ‘the fastest to become S-level after joining the guild’.”
”What is that?” Rod wondered if there were few people these two days, and these two uncles really couldn’t find anyone to chat with.
”Welcome back, Elfman, Rod.” They were greeted by the smiling face that they never got tired of seeing.
”I’m back, sister.”
”I’m back.”
