Infinite Doomsday Survival System

Chapter 435 Own Arrogance

Aska, who escaped from the church, felt that he was a very irresponsible person.

If he didn't know anything before, he could still remain the same as before.

But now that I know it, it is simply impossible to want to keep the way it was before.

But he still wants to maintain the original relationship with Lucy, because he is afraid that once this relationship is broken, they will never be friends again.

He clearly said that he would help Lucy, but in the end he did nothing. He is really an irresponsible friend.

Aska was extremely confused at the moment, not knowing the direction, not even the direction to go home.

What is the current hero to Askar?
I'm afraid he can't answer it himself.

The one who hurt Lucy is the hero, and as a hero, can he really comfort Lucy?
I don't know, Aska doesn't want to go back for the time being, doesn't want to see the hero, doesn't want to see the weirdo again.

Although it is shameful to escape, but now Aska has no other choice but to escape.

Go back like you don't know anything?Can't do it, he can't do it at all.

Aska, who was extremely confused, moved forward aimlessly.

And at this moment, a figure appeared in front of him and said, "Young man, you seem to be in trouble, do you need my help?"

Aska raised his head suspiciously, and saw a man in a handsome hero costume.

At this moment, for some unknown reason, Aska almost vomited, but just seeing the hero, he felt incomparably disgusted in his heart.

But Aska still suppressed the resentment in his heart, and said very politely: "I'm fine, thank you for your worry, please step aside."

"Don't say that. As a hero, people who encounter difficulties should naturally help them."

"Sorry, I don't want to see heroes for now."

Regarding the other party's words, Aska also expressed his own meaning directly.

But the other party didn't give up because of Aska's words. Instead, he asked, "Aren't you a hero too? Don't you want to see yourself too?"

"You! Don't bother me, let me be alone!"

"Are you in trouble? Don't hold back when you have something on your mind. It will make you feel better if you say it."

"Even if you tell me, what can you help me with?!"

Aska became impatient, and wanted to push the opponent away and leave here.

However, with his current human strength, he couldn't push away a man who was stronger than himself.

The other party obviously didn't give up, and continued to stalk and ask: "Don't say that, what if I can really help you?"

"I don't need help!"

"But you put on a look like you're about to drown, it's really unsettling."

"..." Listening to the other party's words, Aska was silent for a moment, and said, "I'm so useless, I can't even help my best friend, and I don't even know."

Although Aska didn't know if it was right to do so, he could only ask him for help now.

The other party sized up Aska and said, "Well, it's really useless."

"... Forget it! I won't tell you anymore, let me leave!"

"Hey! Don't, I just made a slip of the tongue and accidentally told the truth... No! Anyway, don't give up."

Looking at the other party's appearance, Aska didn't know what to say, so he could only continue: "I ran away when my friend needed help the most..."

"Wuah!" The other party put on a disgusted expression, after all, no one would be used to this kind of abandonment of companions.

But judging from Aska's appearance, it must not be that simple.

"Let's talk over there." The other party took Aska to a park, then handed Aska a can of coffee, and asked, "Can you tell me the details?"

"I don't know what to do, how to face that guy?" Aska regretted very much.

I feel so powerless about myself right now, I don't even know what to do.

Aska told the other party everything, of course not everything, such as Lucy's identity and the real situation.

"Well, I already understand the general situation. In short, you just don't know what kind of expression you should face your friend now, right?"

Aska nodded and said, "Can I really help her?"

"I'm afraid not."

"Eh?" Being told so bluntly that it was no good, Aska couldn't react.

"Mr. Gaia, you think highly of yourself and your friendship too much."

"It's impossible. We are so friendly, how can we be too respectful? We are best friends."

"No, you never regarded the other party as your friend. Your friend cherished your friendship very much, so you were not involved. And you? Thinking about how to help her, thinking about how to forgive her, thinking about how to Acting like nothing happened is just so arrogant."

"Arrogance? Me?" Aska didn't understand. The president said the same thing before. Where is his arrogance?
"Where am I arrogant?! I just want to help her and be her strength. Is this arrogance?!"

"Yes, since you want to help her, why don't you forgive her?"

"That's because... what she did... is really unforgivable."

So far, it is unknown how many people lost their lives and how many heroes sacrificed because of this incident. This made Aska unable to accept and forgive him.

"You see, this is your arrogance. You take yourself too seriously. You never trust your friends. The friendship between you is worthless."

"No...it's impossible...! We..."

Aska wanted to refute his words, but didn't know how to refute.

Are you really that arrogant?
He patted Aska on the back and said, "Don't pay too much attention to it. Didn't you just say that your boss has forgiven him, so why can't you forgive him?"

"But...she did a lot of things that hurt everyone, I...can't forgive her for everyone..."

"Ah—!" He didn't know what to say about Aska: "How can you represent everyone, that's why I say you are arrogant. Don't talk about everyone, just talk about yourself, if you can't forgive yourself If not, then you can just break up with your friend and save yourself trouble."

"But……"

"It's nothing to worry about. Since she is a friend, she has already regretted it. Could it be that you, the best friend, can't forgive her?"

"I can! But..." But what?
Only then did Aska realize that perhaps he was indeed too arrogant. He was only himself and could not represent everyone at all.

Even if everyone can't forgive her, as a friend, if I can't forgive her, then I am really disqualified as a friend.

But is this really good?Forgive a bad guy who ruined a city?

Although it was not wrong for Lucy to be killed, it was wrong to destroy the city...

But when I think about it carefully, it seems... In addition to Lucy, the president of their city also often destroys the city.

With Aska's small mind, he couldn't understand the reason behind it at all. He only knew that those who destroyed the city could not be forgiven.

But in a situation like Lucy, he was very confused about the identity of the hero.

Forgive me for being a hero.

If you don't forgive, then you are sorry for your status as a friend.

It is this entanglement that allows Aska to escape reality.

"I...wanted to forgive her, but I ran away, escaped from reality, and ran away from what that guy needed most."

"It's nothing. Everyone will escape. It is not shameful to escape. After all, it is a biological instinct, but what are you going to do after this? Do you continue to escape? If this is the case, I suggest that you break off the relationship directly."

"No, I'm not going to run away."

"Yeah, nice eyes. So what are you going to do next?"

"Do nothing." Aska replied truthfully: "Since that guy doesn't want me to know, then I don't know anything, just do as usual."

Aska figured it out, if it was arrogance, it was indeed.

Always want to help others, but have no idea whether others are willing to let themselves help.

Since Lucy doesn't want him to know now, he can just pretend that he doesn't know anything.

Although he was very upset, Aska would wait, and when Lucy told himself everything, he would no longer force Lucy.

"Well, it's a good choice. Don't do anything, just wait. If the friendship between you is true, then everything will be fine."

"Well! Thank you, uncle. After I told you, I feel a lot better."

"This is a good thing. Don't hold back what you have in your heart. Find a reliable person to share it with. Maybe there will be new discoveries."

"Hmm! Then..." Aska, who was planning to leave, suddenly lost his mind.

That's right, it's just that Lucy's matter has been solved, and there are still many problems that have not been resolved.

Aska felt that he knew too many things that he shouldn't know at his age.

The grown-up world is scary.

In addition to Lucy's matter, there is also the hero's matter, which makes Aska unable to face the hero for the time being.

"Hey uncle, what do you think a hero is?"

"Of course justice exists." The uncle answered without hesitation, allowing Aska to see his former self.

But now that he knew this, he couldn't answer it as straightforwardly as the uncle.

"Since a hero is an existence of justice, can a hero who is only for fame be considered a hero?"

"Of course it is a hero. Whether it is for fame or for anything else, as long as it is for the protection of the people, it is a hero. Of course, it must be done in moderation, otherwise human beings will easily be swallowed by fame and do many things that are against common sense. things."

"The hero who has already made a violation of common sense can still be regarded as a hero?"

"No, those villains who betray justice cannot be considered heroes."

Then the uncle added: "However, the current heroes are very good. Compared with the heroes five years ago, they are more like heroes."
