From No Body To Hero
Episode 32


Alastair entered Kleio's room in the morning. Kleio was not bothered by that because Alastair was the whistleblower of Bern's actions at night.


"What did Bern do last night, no, when did he sleep?"


Kleio asked as he washed his face and brushed his teeth. But the reply did not come from Alastair making him look at Alastair suspiciously.


"Sister, he, don't sleep, and go through dinner, read a book, then, his nose bleeds."


Alastair spoke in a stiff voice. Kleio who heard that felt like he would swallow his toothbrush at any moment.


"Bring breakfast to his room and make sure he eats! He had not eaten all day, so he had to eat!"


Kleio spoke in a frustrated tone.


Vany, who was in charge of investigating Bern, looked worried because Bern looked thin and now he has not eaten all day.


So he reported it to Calistia.


"He doesn't eat and sleep? What's the kid doing? A suicide? Self-torture?"


Calistia also looks unable to bear it.

'Why is my table filled with food?'


Bern was confused when his desk was filled with food and he noticed Kleio and Calistia.


Bern's room was in a mess with a lot of paper not knowing what was written on it.


"Is it okay to eat?"


Bern asked given the current state of Sebasta.


"Don't worry, more than half of the food we bring is donated to this city. So no one gets angry if we eat."


Kleio said that confidently and Calistia nodded in agreement.


"But it's so great that there's a city underwater without water."


Calistia said it looked around the city. The city was half in the water while the center was dry there was no pound of water setitis there other than drinking water and for other purposes.


Bern moved his hand to grab some food before stopping.


"I'd rather donate the food I have to people who are hungrier than I am."


Althea wanted to curse Bern, 'if you don't eat, you will die!'


"You've already gone through one meal a day, you should eat what's your excuse."


Kleio looked pushy.


"Then I'm fine with some bread."


Bern said that and only touched 2 toast to fill his stomach after a long day of lying down.


"Are you not going to eat more? Waste time just providing this if you don't eat in the end."


Kleio and Calistia look upset that Bern refuses to eat a cake made specifically for him.


Bern felt guilty seeing them upset and made the decision to eat one piece.


But if the cake goes into his mouth, he will not be able to stop eating until the cake is finished.


"Uhuk, I'm really going to be fat."


Bern muttered feeling tight because his stomach was too full.


"No, look at that skinny body of yours! You won't be rocking even if you eat 10 dishes and then don't eat for 3 days!"


Kleio really looks upset. Bern just closed his mouth as if he was going to vomit in a moment.


"Leo, don't you know the words that are always spoken when someone is too full?"


Bern just said that and kept Kleio quiet. Bern always said he would be clumsy whenever he was too full.


"What's wrong with me saying that?"


The problem is that he's too skinny.


"Also, last night's matter, it's better if we ask princess Faura. He probably found out about the dragon's egg."


Calistia said that and drank the tea that was provided for her.


"But if it's dragon eggs, then it's an important secret of this city, will princess Faura trust us completely to tell us the existence of the legend creature's eggs?"


Kleio seemed hesitant to ask that. It was the same as asking for the existence of a deadly weapon from a kingdom.


"[Packy and neat is beauty.]"


Bern moved his hand and mana began to surround the room and clean up all the papers and messy things there.


Althea's eyes widened to see Bern using his mana.


{What's the point of you eating this way!!}


The pressure from which the disturbance was greater than Bern had expected. The blood flowing from his throat showed the damage he had obtained.


['Sister.'].


Alastair could only hold his hand unsatisfied. Bern will not listen to the readyphone when he sets his mind.


"Why are you using magic! Are you crazy!? Zion even bathed blood when opening the magic circle, you are just torturing yourself!"


Zion initially wanted to help the injured with magic, but in the end, she was only able to help treat small wounds with medical aids.


"True, why do you have to clean your room arriving once?"


Calistia also wakes up to check on Bern's condition. Bern swallowed his blood without any problem and raised his hand indicating he was fine.


He took the meat from the plate in front of him and put it in his mouth.


"Please come in, your honor."


Bern looked calm like a noble who was used to talking to important people.


Alastair opened the door and Faura entered the room which was now clean. However Faura could still sense the mana that was still left in the room.


'This child can use mana even when the sea area is an area with disturbance where natural?'


The reason sea creatures do not use mana is because the ocean is a place with natural mana disturbances and makes it 2 times stronger than mana interference tools.


Alastair took a chair and let him sit down. Faura sat with the dignity of a princess and the charismatic of a queen.


Bern also sat with dignity and charismatic. Calistia and Kleio became clumsy and sat down politely.


Bern's legs crossed while he ate the meat in front of him. It looks like Bern is dominating things right now.


{Food is in front of you, so just eat! Otherwise, I won't cure you!}


But she only ate because she was forced by Althea to pinch her ears. Nevertheless, Bern tries to respectfully eat as little as possible due to the city's miserable conditions.


"Your majesty, I have a question, and it relates to the dragon's eggs."


Faura was ready to explode hearing the question. But he held back and tried to listen to his question first.


"I don't want to know where it is or want to see it. All I want to know is, is it here?"


Seeing that Bern was really not interested in the legend, Faura finally spoke.


"Thousands of years ago, the ruler was extinct and left their eggs in this world as successors. There were many people of the ruler's faith and one of them was a water elf and was safely kept here. But until now, no one knew when the eggs would hatch."


Calistia and Kleio looked interested to look at the egg.


"So that's it."


Bern said that and placed the fork gently on the table.


"The message of this organization is the dragon's eggs."


Faura's eyes looked furious and released anergy of suppression.


"How dare they go after the great!"


Faura seemed to be unable to control her emotions anymore.


"But what do they want with the city of Narda?"


Kleio asked to change the topic looking at Faura's anger.


That one word made Calistia want to flip the table.


Think again, there was a dragon egg that they would get, so they had to find a place to hide it. The city of Narda which has been abandoned by the plague and become a dead city will make the location of the perfect headquarters.


Calistia could not believe it, just for that useless teller, her hometown wanted to be made their headquarters.


"We can't write a report on dragon eggs. Those greedy western nobles would start another war if they knew."


Kleio complained of knowing a lot of things. He should have called Ailen once. Now, he had to discuss with Ailen for the report as well as re-create the plan with Uen.


"You don't seem interested in dragon eggs. Do you know how powerful a dragon is?"


Faura did not like Bern's attitude as if she felt very strong and did not care about other creatures.


"Why should I care?"


Just look at the cold way he answered.


"Am I his mother to care? Dragons are powerful creatures, free creatures that are called great creatures. Also, I'm too pathetic to finance eating a dragon."


Faura lost the word instantly hearing another reason from Bern.


"If you do not have enough funds, well never maintain. Let them outside freely forage from the fetch and in seksa. Again pound, a dragon is unlikely to bow to a human."


Bern smiled and got up from his seat. He gently stroked the heads of Alastair and Althea at the same time.


"I've also got to take care of these two people, so, I better focus on them."


Faura thought Alastair was Bern's subordinate, but wasn't it?


"Aren't you too friendly with your healing spirit?"


Calistia said it was unbelievable. But Bern shook his head at the question.


"Althea saved my life, so she deserves a better life. If I had a kingdom, I wouldn't hesitate to give it to Althea."


Kleio grunts.


"Because that's all your money on me. You will be poor for contributing too much."


Bern was not greedy of treasure, he never cared to share what pounds he had.


"Sorry, can I get your name?"


Calistia only knew Bern's name from the book she left behind. He doesn't know Bern's full name.


"My name? Don't you know it, my name is Bern Kailyth."


Calistia's eyes widened hearing Bern's full name.


"You're the kid who rejected all the gifts and titles also nearly died in the battle of the black rain forest?"


Kleio smiled hearing Calistia in shock. He was shocked at first. Faura looked puzzled by Calistia's reaction.


"I was in this battle to get my grimoire that they had stolen. Also give death to the witch."


Magicians without their grimoires were tantamount to fighting with one hand tied to a pole. However with that flaw, Bern could use magic well even in areas of mana interference.


Calistia and Faura felt danger from Bern's presence.


Bang out!


Explosions in the dry area with wet areas were heard.


"They attacked again."


Faura woke up and was ready to fight.


- (Faura, the dragon's egg area was attacked! I'm going there!)


Faura was bluffing her teeth hearing her brother's report. As elves, they could communicate through thoughts of blood ties.


- (I went there! Just wait!)


Faura quickly climbed the controlled water bubble towards the battle area.


"I'm going too."


Bern said it called his sweeper.


"We'll go too-"


"No, stay here and protect the wounded. They love to attack the weak. Also they like to incite those who are weak to be a part of them."


Kleio's words were cut off but he wasn't angry. What Bern says is fact and they can use mind control when they pierce the weak points of one's mind.


Bern stood on the sweeper quietly and quickly flew down.


"Stevens!"


Steven who was heading in the same direction heard his name on the call.


"You come with me, the others defend the local townspeople!"


Anton stopped from running after the soldiers and ran back. It's the same as the others.


Steven welcomed Bern's hand and squatted down on the sweeper. He had no idea how Bern balanced himself to stand even at that speed.


.


.


Lewis looked at his bow and bulged his teeth.


"I have to do what I can if I can't shoot anymore! I can't keep moody like this!"


Lewis slapped his face hard and carried a spear. Just because he can't shoot anymore doesn't mean he can't fight.


He meets Ailen and Uen on the street.


"Your fingers...."


Ailen and Uen looked shocked at his finger.


"It's not a time to be sad because I lost my finger, we're on the battlefield."


Lewis remembers what Bern told him before leaving him alone.


'This is not the end of everything. Believe me, there will be a bright future for those who do not give up.'


Lewis' hand grip on the spear tightened.


"I won't die in despair, I'd rather die when I've struggled to improve myself."


Lewis determined.


Ailen and Uen did not stop him and they went towards the crowd.


As Bern expected, there were 10 people from the organization ready to attack the weak citizens.


'Dirty bases!'


That was all they had in mind about the organization.


.


.


Tump, tump.


'Ah, my feelings are not good.'


Bern held his heart as it beat unstable. Using mana there is very heavy, but it can still be accommodated.


'Let's get this done fast.'
