Chapter 120 The Hero’s Memories
A week after the Systems’ absurd joint operation came to an end, Oswald and Eileen finally finished visiting all the villages. Carrying a thick notebook of problems, they returned to Ice City, where the cold wind howled.
Oswald looked calm on the surface, but in reality, his mind was filled with all kinds of sentimental love songs playing on repeat. The System was now hopelessly immersed in the love-triangle melodrama of the neighboring world. It truly loved watching shipping wars and would say something from time to time.
[You have to keep doing your best, little Lilai.]
Incidentally, Lilai was the name of the female lead in the neighboring world. As for the supporting female character, she was the one the System had busied itself for so long to preserve.

In addition, the System of the neighboring world was also quite satisfied with the current situation. If nothing else, at least things were lively now.
Its Host’s emotions had stabilized, he had the energy to work again, and it could watch the show when it had nothing to do...

When Oswald walked into the Duke’s Estate, Luna, who had come to welcome him, saluted elegantly.
“The Northern Territory is truly cold, Elder Brother.”
“Fix yourself up first, then talk to me.” Oswald rubbed Luna’s hair, which was as messy as a chicken nest, and smiled helplessly.
After not seeing her for some time, Luna had even developed dark circles beneath her eyes. She had quite the beauty of a working woman.

After sending Luna away, Oswald and Eileen returned to the office. This time, Eileen was not in a hurry to inspect the Duke’s Estate.
The two rested for a while. Eileen brewed Oswald a pot of hot tea, took the notebook of problems, and soon left the office to throw herself into work.
Oswald took out his pipe and lit it. The mournful BGM in his mind continued playing.
He heavily exhaled a cloud of smoke. Even after arriving in another world, his fellow countrymen still would not let him go. One sentimental love song after another played without even repeating.

Who exactly liked sad love songs? Oh, so it was me. Then never mind.
After drinking a sip of tea, Luna, who had washed and dressed herself properly, had once again regained the delicate prettiness of a young girl. She took quick little steps and came da-da-da to Oswald’s side.

Sitting back down on her exclusive little stool again, Luna almost could not help wanting to shed tears.
It had been too hard. Handling official duties alone was such a thing that even when she slept, what she dreamed of were all kinds of troublesome matters from the day.
“You worked hard during this period. Still, you did quite well.” Oswald raised an eyebrow and personally poured Luna a cup of tea.
Luna held the cup, feeling as though a heavy burden had been lifted from her shoulders. It was good as long as she had not made any mistakes.
“Thank you, Elder Brother.”
“Aside from a reward, I’ll give you some time off as well.” Oswald cheerfully patted her head. “But don’t just focus on playing. When you have time to rest, think carefully.”

“During the period when you handled official duties yourself, what experience can you summarize? Where did you not do well? What kinds of problems do you lack understanding of? How should you deal with them in the future?”
“At the same time, you should also go around, walk a little, and look around. See whether the problems you handled have truly been solved. When you made the final decisions at the time, did you overlook any other problems...?”
Listening to her elder brother’s familiar teaching, Luna felt warmth in her heart, though her face showed a sulky expression. “Even a vacation comes with work arrangements?”
“When one day our little Luna can handle anything with ease, you won’t need me to arrange things anymore.”
At this moment, Luna was shocked to discover that her elder brother could actually be this gentle. Could Eileen have done something? What exactly was there that a seventeen-year-old grown child like her could not hear?!
Oswald tapped Luna’s forehead and smiled. “What are you thinking about?”
Èn̄ ů m̃а .i̇ḋ
Luna hurriedly shook her head. Combining this with the romance experience she had obtained from knight novels, she concluded that Eileen had definitely done something.
“Nothing. Does Elder Brother have anything else? If not, I’m going to chat with Lady Eileen.”

“Mm. Go call Paul and the elf over. I have something to discuss with them. Also, tell Lisa that her father, Count Camero, wants her to write back to him.”
...
After finishing the tasks Elder Brother had entrusted to her, Luna searched for a long time but still could not find Eileen.
Since she had finally gotten some rest time, Luna pulled Lisa along, and the two little devils returned once more to the streets of Ice City.

And their first stop was to go harass the Hero, Thorne, at the military camp.
Thorne, who was not well-liked in Ice City, had recently grown very fond of staying with the children in the military camp. Perhaps only in front of the children could he recover the Hero’s prestige.
When Luna and Lisa arrived at the military camp, Thorne was helping the children chop firewood for winter. No matter what one said, among the younger generation, Thorne was an indisputable powerhouse.
He crouched on the ground, casually swinging the axe and splitting the logs the children handed him. From time to time, he even showed off his muscles.

“I can eat eight loaves of bread in one meal. Eight! You’re all too young right now. When you grow up, if you can eat that much too, maybe you’ll have a chance to surpass me.”
Luna secretly watched for a while. After discovering that Thorne was not doing anything bad, she walked over with some regret.

The moment he saw who had come, Thorne’s hand froze in midair with the axe raised. As if by conditioned reflex, he sprang up from the ground and retreated warily without pause.
“I-I haven’t offended you recently...”
“Enough. Why are you so nervous between old classmates? Can’t I come find you for a chat?”
Luna handed the snack basket to the children and irritably beckoned to Thorne. The children left while laughing. Thorne gripped the axe, hurriedly shook his head in refusal, and checked the situation behind him at the same time.
This was the military camp. Who knew when a few burly men might jump out and give him a righteous group beating?
“If I want to beat you in the Northern Territory, do I still need some kind of scheme?” Luna beckoned impatiently again. “Get over here. I’ll treat you to some good juice.”

In the end, Thorne yielded to the imposing air of the Northern Territory’s young lady. He put down the axe and followed far behind the two of them, arriving at a café.
After the three of them sat down, Luna handed him the menu and said calmly, “Speaking of which, I haven’t asked you yet. How have you survived during this period?”
After ordering, Thorne hurriedly rubbed the dust from his hands. “Lord Duke arranged a place for me to stay. There’s also a lot of work in the city. Right now, I mainly move goods for a merchant association. The money I earn is enough to support myself.”
“So you were just freeloading before.” Lisa’s precise jab made Thorne’s expression incomparably awkward.
There was no Adventurer Association in the Northern Territory. Even if magical beasts appeared, they would quickly be subjugated by the army. Since he could not work as an adventurer, Thorne also could not join the army. There were even fewer girls and nobles here who would support him...
Returning to the hauling work of his youth and once again going back to a life where he counted money to get by, Thorne would recall his past every sleepless night.

Back then, all he had thought about was supporting himself, saving a little money, buying a sword, and becoming an adventurer who traveled all over the world.
That had been his original dream.

Until he revealed his talent and, by a twist of fate, saved a noble. To thank him, the noble proposed sending him to school and even promised that after graduation, he would give him the position of knight captain.
Thorne thought that sounded good as well. A knight was also a respectable job, so he agreed at once.
However, on his very first day at the academy, Thorne somehow muddleheadedly became the chosen Hero.
After entering the world of nobles, he did indeed suffer many difficulties at first. If the nobles supported you, then you were called the Hero. If the nobles did not support you, then you were a dog who could be replaced at any time.

To prove that he was no worse than anyone else, Thorne worked harder and harder, only to unexpectedly become acquainted with Lilith and join Princess Diana’s faction.
After gaining a thicker thigh to cling to, the noble who had sponsored Thorne’s studies was thrown to the back of his mind.
At some unknown point, Thorne had grown accustomed to an absurd life. After all, no matter what he did, others would support him unconditionally. It seemed he had truly become a Hero worthy of the name.
Until one day after graduation, Lilith suddenly awakened the memories of the previous life...

Thorne learned of the existence of time reversal, but compared with the failure of the previous life, he was even more afraid of the madness of the people around him.
Calamities of unknown cause erupted frequently. The bone dragon appeared in the world, and the Dragon Slayer died in the wilderness.

The Northern Territory suddenly unsheathed its blade. Maria, the most rational person in the squad, died in an instant, yet strangely transformed into a curse, revealing the most terrifying truth of this life.
How laughable. While they were continuously making all kinds of plans together and discussing how to change the future, they had not noticed at all those silent eyes behind them!
Thorne drank a mouthful of juice, tasting only sourness. He stopped recalling the past, but the smiling face of a girl lingered in his mind.
“What will happen to Lilith?”
“She may become a curse, or she may spend the rest of her life in a dungeon.” This time, Luna did not mock Thorne. She could tell that even though he had known countless women, Lilith was the most special existence to him.
Hearing this, Thorne wiped his face and slowly sighed. “Is that so? So that is how it is...”

“You cannot save her. One could say that from the moment you left the Northern Territory and stepped onto the soil of the Central Region, the struggles surrounding you would never stop.”
Hearing Luna say the same thing as Old Mr. Medivh, Thorne showed surprise, and unexpectedly felt that heroes under heaven were as numerous as carp crossing the river.
Luna did not care about the changes in his expression. She only gently stirred the blood-colored grape juice with a glass straw and offered her suggestion.
“The reason I came was to tell you this, Thorne. If Lilith has not become an incarnation of the curse, then your only hope of saving her lies with one person—my elder brother.”
