My Second Life in Another World

Chapter 159: A Goal I Wanted To Realize.

Whenever he lost he was able to see the backs of the ones who defeated him. He had the will to get up and move forward and catch up to them.

But things were different now, He couldn't see the back no matter how much he tried, he wasn't able to move his body up no matter how he wanted to stand up he wasn't able to.

Randel stood there with his mouth agape while looking at the scene.

Haru looked at Zenobia who was looking at him and nodded.

Seeing that Zenobia walked over and stood in front of Bairon.

"Lance Bairon," Zenobia called out in her gentle voice making Bairon look up at her.

"If you are going to crumble from something like this, Then my assessment about you having a fragile mentality will become accurate, A person like that can never hope to hold even a normal sword made by me, my weapons are like my own children to me, I don't give them to someone who can't take care of them properly, So if you want to hold a weapon made by me, Prove your worth to me," Zenobia said while looking straight at Bairon.

"..." Bairon's eyes widened when he heard that, they were the same words she said to the other lances when they complained about how Varay and Alea had their personal weapons and armor. After all, they were all lances and had pride in their power.

Zenobia's words were clear 'I don't care what the world thinks of you or how high the pedestal you stand on is, if you are confident in your strength then prove me wrong and make me eat my words if you can do that then find me my doors are always open, otherwise don't run your mouth in front of me again.' these words made them shut their mouths they had no choice but to take on this challenge and improve further.

'All these years that I thought I knew her, But I was wrong I don't know a thing about this person in front of me.' Bairon clenched his teeth as he looked at Zenobia looking at him.

'Stop, Big sis he is already dead, But I like this get a few more punches in,' Randel felt a bit bad for Bairon but he was ecstatic when he saw how the pretty boy was getting shot down. He was even smiling without a care in the world.

Bairon stood up and looked at Zenobia. He took a deep breath and spoke.

"Then... I will make sure that no one else but me can hold the weapons you make," Bairon said as he looked at Zenobia who didn't have a reaction to that.

'That is impossible, there is only one person like that and it isn't you,' Zenobia thought as she looked at Haru who was yawning but she chose not to say it.

Following Zenobia's gaze, Bairon looked at Haru and clenched his hands tightly.

"For Lady Zenobia I will surpass you," Bairon said while looking at Haru's face.

"What did I say before? Lower your head," Haru said and Bairon flinched his gaze lowered without him knowing.

Bairon felt anger rise from his core, veins appearing on his forehead and neck as he ground his teeth but he was weaker that was how it was for now. But he vowed to make it different in the future.

Zenobia shook her head and didn't say anything.

Bairon turned around and left the shop.

'I'll make you pay for this,' Bairon was fuming when he saw that Haru didn't even take him for anything.

Seeing that Bairon left Randel quickly went to Haru and elbowed his sides.

"That was quite good Big Bro, I approve," Randel said with a grin and gave Haru thumps up.

"Heh, weren't you looking at me with disappointment before?" Haru asked with a chuckle.

"WHISTLE* I was looking at Lance Bairon, I can't stand how he can be like that," Randel whistled while looking away.

'This guy is funny, he reminds me of Jin-ah.' Haru smiled as he looked at Randel but then he noticed Zenobia standing in front of an Anvil at the corner of the shop.

Of course, Randel noticed it too so he looked at Zenobia.

"Big sis, why did you help Lance Bairon? Wouldn't it be good if he doesn't bother you anymore? It looked like he had given up." Randel asked something he was curious about because he felt like Zenobia won't give Bairon a way out this time. Haru was interested in this as well.

"If Lance Bairon goes back that way, there would be endless trouble for us. His mind was fully shaken and his worldview was broken down a person like that can do something that will put many lives in danger." Zenobia said as she looked at Haru and Randel.

Haru nodded as he understood that things would get a bit troublesome and that is because this is a medieval time period, The information system here is messed up the higher up can twist it whichever way they want and make them the enemy of the common populace, not that this doesn't happen in a modern world, But it is more severe in a backward world.

Randel nodded with his hands folded.

"Ok, I don't get it," Randel said with a serious voice as he looked at Zenobia who giggled even Haru shook his head this guy resembled Jin-ah a bit too much.

"He lived his whole life being the best, he was raised as the genius of the Wykes family since childhood, many people placed their expectations and ideals on him. It wasn't because he was defeated, if he was that mentally weak he wouldn't have been able to reach this level, the main reason was how he was defeated he wasn't even able to put up a fight or resist it was don't before he could even do something, he didn't even know what happened to him. Everything about him was broken in a second." Zenobia said as she looked at Haru who nodded.

"The so-called geniuses are the most fragile people you will ever meet. It might be a position and status that others may be envious of, The people around them may praise them to high heavens for their achievements, But...." Zenobia stopped as she looked at Randel.

"They are kicked down just as hard when they fail, It isn't pretty in the slightest unless they have a goal or have their mind set on something It is impossible for them to get back up from that failure," Zenobia said with a gentle smile as she picked up the hammer on the anvil and Randel had a sad expression on his face.

He knew that at this point Zenobia wasn't talking about Bairon but herself. She has been in that position herself, a famed genius in her childhood that the noble families swarmed to make connections with her, only to become a homeless person who no wanted anything to do later on because they feared the new king might wipe their family as well.

"If the weapons made by me can become a goal for a person to continue forward and improve then it means that I haven't wasted my life away in perfecting my craft, This was my goal to give others a goal to look up to and improve themselves without falling into despair, And from the looks of it I have achieved it," Zenobia said with a bright smile while looking at both Haru and Randel.

Haru smiled and nodded at her he could feel her words carry a strong will. Her heart was really unshakable it was clear that she went through a lot of things and faced a lot of trials but she prevailed while carving a path in the dark so that others can follow her path because not everyone has a strong will to persevere, things like 'Never giving up' never work in real life where if you fall a step behind the others you will be trampled by the ones behind you.

Once you are left behind you are done for, there might be people who get back up and climb up after failing but there aren't many people like that. That is how the world works it doesn't wait for anyone, A genius or a normal person, A king or a civilian, everyone is the same in its eyes. If you fall behind your done.

"I would say that you have," Haru affirmed as he saw how Bairon was able to pick himself up after Zenobia talked to him. He had also seen how the civilians think highly of her.

"Thank you," Zenobia said as her face burned up even her dark skin wasn't able to hide it now.

Randel looked at Zenobia and Haru a few times then nodded his head.

"Sir Haru," Randel called out to Haru who looked at him.

"Please take care of my Big sis," Randel said while bowing his head.

"W-What?" Zenobia was flustered of course as she looked at Haru with a red face.

"My big sis, is too kind although she can be scary sometimes, she often neglects her own life and needs, so please look after her. And when she is working sh-AH!! OW! OW! SIS! STOP MY EAR!!!!!" Randel who was asking Haru was crying out loud as Zenobia was pulling his ear with a flushed face.

"Y-You brat," Zenobia was both livid and ashamed as she heard Randel say that to Haru, wasn't he like asking Haru to marry her. 𝚏ree𝚠𝚎𝐛nove𝚕.com

[I should've killed her before,] Kurumi's voice sounded in Haru's head making him smile wryly.

And with this small episode they went to have lunch and Haru had to say that Zenobia's cooking was first-class.
