Chapter 133: Talking While The Rain Falls
Tired of the noise of the rain, the group fell asleep after eating a little. Elsa woke up and went to the porch to sit down. The fresh, clean air came in as the rain continued.
"Why did everything have to end like this?" Elsa muttered to herself, opening her Hunter Card inventory to pull out a card. As she did so, she opened the letter and began to read.
*sigh~*
No matter how many times she read it, she still couldn't match the 10 year old who wrote her this letter, wishing she had a safe return from the hunt, with the same girl who delivered her younger sister to an inhuman laboratory...
"Eldest sister?" Nero asked, worried, "Are you crying?"
"No, of course not," Elsa denied, rubbing her eyes with her arm. She said, changing the subject, "I didn't even notice you coming. Are you hungry?"
Realizing she didn't want to talk about why she was crying, she said, "A little bit, but I'll wait for the rest to wake up. Let's talk a bit in the meantime, shall we?"
"Okay." Elsa motioned for Nero to sit in the chair beside her.
After sitting down, Nero looked at her, "Big sister, how was it getting to Rank A?"
A little surprised, Elsa responded, "It depends. What exactly are you asking about?"
"The feeling, or sense of accomplishment," Nero replied.
Elsa said calmly, "Mm... It was gratifying, I must admit. Being strong means you don't have to be so afraid of the unexpected. If I wasn't strong, I would have died a long time ago, so... I must say that I like being strong, especially being able to fulfill my strongest wish in recent years, which was to be reunited with you."
Nero felt that Elsa was sincere when she said this. It made her start to think more deeply about being strong. At first, she just wanted to be strong to survive, but she started to think she was strong enough, but still wanted to get stronger, but aimlessly, she just wanted to be strong. Honestly, she didn't even know what she would do if she had that much power. Save the world, maybe?
No! Although she liked to help, she didn't want to be a fake heroine pretending to save the world, when in reality, she saved at most one city and created a city of the weak, which would depend on her for everything and stop trying to the point of not having the strength to protect themselves if one day she was gone.
"Nero?" Elsa called her.
"Yes?" Nero came out of her thoughts. She sighed and said, "Big sister, is it wrong for me to think about being strong but not wanting to be a hero?"
"Why would it be?" Elsa smiled a little. "It's your life, yours alone. You don't have to sacrifice yourself for others. Only if you do it because you want to do it will it be worth it. I advise you not to do any of this out of obligation, since, in reality, you have no obligation."
"I'm a little confused, but I think I understand what you mean." Nero smiled gently at Elsa.
Elsa had a gentle expression as she looked at Nero. She looked up at the sky and began to speak as if speaking to herself, "While I was traveling, I saved a lot of people, but it was because I was at the right time and at the right time. I just did what I thought was right. I never forced myself to go around saving people just because I can; it just happened. Wait, I'm lying, I already forced myself once..."
"Seriously?" Nero looked at her in surprise.
Elsa laughed a little and said, "Yes, I was very young. It was before you... Well, you know." She pretended to cough and continued, "Instead of choosing the best places to hunt sea monsters, I chose the places that suffered the most and gave some of the monster's meat to people in need. Until then, I didn't think it was wrong, but then these people, instead of trying hard enough to become physically strong enough, started to be dependent on me... Remember the time I locked myself in my room for 1 week?"
Nero was thoughtful, then she nodded, "Yes, I remember."
"So that's when a couple blamed me for their son who starved to death because I stopped bringing monster meat," Elsa said wistfully, "But the reality was that I had other things to do and I couldn't go. When I went, it happened. That's when I realized that I might not actually be helping... But, rather, creating invalid people."
"I see." Nero was also a little melancholy.
"Hehe, don't be sad about it." Elsa bowed her head a little towards Nero, letting her hair fall to the ground. "It wasn't all bad, you know? That same island that was an island of 'weak' people, thanks to my help, they became strong. After they stopped depending on me, they managed to survive on their own. So take this life lesson that I learned the hard way: If you want to help someone, don't do so with money, but rather, find a way for them to support themselves."
"I get it now, thanks." Nero smiled.
"Obviously, there are exceptions, but you should already know that, yes?"
"Yes," Nero nodded.
"Good." Elsa smiled at Nero. Her smile was beautiful, sincere, and full of sisterly love. For the next few minutes, Elsa and Nero were silent, just enjoying each other's presence.

"Nero, you are here."
Nero bowed a little and looked back, "Yui, good afternoon~"
"Good afternoon." She approached. "Can I sit here?"
"Sure," Nero said, "Get a chair."
"Okay." Yui left and came back with a chair.
Elsa looked at Yui. She remembers like it was yesterday when Nero and she went to the lab to rescue this girl. 'Nero, you are more special than you can imagine,' she smiled to herself. Soon, she looked back at the rain.
Next to arrive was Jair. He also chose to sit quietly beside them. After that was Honda and Jingu, and not long after, Choko and Jana. Breno was the last to arrive with unruly hair. Despite that, Jana's loving eyes were the same as always when she saw Breno; she loved him unconditionally.
It was then that nine people were watching the rain. The calm that the rain brought with it was simply fantastic. They felt a peace of mind just by watching in the presence of whoever they liked.
Elsa spotted one of the maids. "Julia, bring everyone a vitamin, please."
"Right now, Miss Elsa." Julia bowed respectfully before leaving.
'Oh my god, they are so beautiful...' Julia thought as she saw the lot of them sitting together. It was a unique and wonderful sight.
