:崇拜,是距離理解最遙遠的感情
353Please respect copyright.PENANAY1CSfVMXgi
這個村子絕不會祝福拋家棄子離村的人。
353Please respect copyright.PENANAlHFwEXiVgw
二郎從小就有此體認。353Please respect copyright.PENANATQ91KzaA07
353Please respect copyright.PENANAWCOgNc7ZSj
他曾親眼看見自己最崇拜的表哥像過街老鼠一樣被眾人們吐口水跟丟掃帚,在滿滿的詛咒之中瀟灑揮手離去的身影,高大壯碩的背影看來豁達,離去步伐充滿雀躍的律動感。353Please respect copyright.PENANANbEgzlutxD
353Please respect copyright.PENANARZWaIY2mxY
二郎只記得周圍所有人臉上滿是憤怒,不堪入耳的咒罵聲迴盪,不曉得有沒有流入離去之人的耳中,若是有,他還能如此逍遙嗎?353Please respect copyright.PENANAkKNYumYbwy
353Please respect copyright.PENANA8LOSG1GsWf
記憶之中,當天晚上飯桌前的所有人都不苟言笑,表哥離村的事情等同於背叛,有著血緣關係的他們更是臉上無光。353Please respect copyright.PENANAfGpcC5yiTi
353Please respect copyright.PENANAB9w6xGUHMp
「十郎、一郎、二郎,你們聽好了,媽媽我不奢求你們成為多厲害的武士,但至少別像平八郎那樣就好。」沈默的飯局進行到一半,母親停下手中筷子,語重心長地警告著。353Please respect copyright.PENANA43go4rMENh
353Please respect copyright.PENANAECvK1zQs8Z
御茶家族的孩子數眾多,二郎排在第十二位,也是最後一位,是個上有11位哥哥姊姊的末子。353Please respect copyright.PENANAB4Ouw1zjrX
353Please respect copyright.PENANAYxf4PszIvF
大部分的哥姊已經長大,儼然成為出色的武士了,只剩下包含二郎在內的三位孩子尚未成年,會在大家工作回來以前先行開飯。353Please respect copyright.PENANAbOp4lTdceF
353Please respect copyright.PENANADntYHjLSv7
「可是忠勝哥很強啊,為什麼他離村大家會這麼生氣?」353Please respect copyright.PENANA8BA8goIEXX
353Please respect copyright.PENANAPaUy9Z9ib1
「噓!二郎,閉嘴!」哥哥十郎眼見苗頭不對立刻巴了他的頭。353Please respect copyright.PENANA0E1HQktlOT
353Please respect copyright.PENANAME1cM8VH67
所幸哥哥及時阻止了衝突爆發,若是二郎再說下去母親肯定大發雷霆,只見她一臉嚴肅:353Please respect copyright.PENANAQOSnfa2OeP
353Please respect copyright.PENANAzotY0LXpB7
「他有『平八郎』這個名字,是父母親給予的珍貴寶物,那傢伙連名字都不懂得珍惜了,也難怪他會拋下村子,唉……真是苦了他的家人。」353Please respect copyright.PENANAfK9iwTYbod
353Please respect copyright.PENANAaC35MzbppO
年幼的二郎不懂,取綽號或別稱是如此不道德的事情嗎?在他印象中,平八郎總是以那個稱呼為傲。353Please respect copyright.PENANAkkwgXkhxlF
353Please respect copyright.PENANAGlL3QYcZWQ
「二郎,別叫我表哥或平八郎了,以後都叫我『忠勝』就好。」353Please respect copyright.PENANAzWThR6NcLn
353Please respect copyright.PENANAUFUB8Uahx6
「嗯?問我為什麼?因為那是傳說中一個強到逆天的武士的名字呀,我想變得跟他一樣。」353Please respect copyright.PENANAAxBMweSAV7
353Please respect copyright.PENANAK40T5e8XDy
如果平八郎以此化名的初衷是為了成為出色的武士,那不正好與整個村莊的理念相符嗎?353Please respect copyright.PENANAFrPlD16EGy
353Please respect copyright.PENANAflgNA0XQyE
總之,那頓晚餐二郎沒什麼胃口,滿腦子都在思考這一切到底是哪裡出了問題,以及最崇拜之人離去的感傷。353Please respect copyright.PENANAS298xEAyLB
353Please respect copyright.PENANAbMS9pw9fmf
要說他對忠勝哥的印象,那絕對跟「自由奔放」、「強悍」等詞彙脫不了關係。平時愛開玩笑活絡氣氛的性格不說,忠勝哥是唯一願意引領二郎開拓視野的人。353Please respect copyright.PENANAU6exvjh3qC
353Please respect copyright.PENANAMSDMK5boC7
「二郎,每天練功很無聊對不對,要不要跟哥去一個好玩的地方?」353Please respect copyright.PENANALdBJyXfogW
353Please respect copyright.PENANAVdMdo5PWTz
第一次前往史塔特蘭,就是在忠勝的帶領之下前往的,翻山越嶺的一路上不停安撫緊張不安的二郎情緒,掛保證絕對會在天黑之前回家。353Please respect copyright.PENANA1NvWdIakhJ
353Please respect copyright.PENANAfVGr6s4HWe
他們抵達熱鬧城鎮,不待二郎驚奇地一覽都市全貌,忠勝直接拎著他到各處參觀,從冒險者中心、中央廣場、珠寶店、伴手禮店、酒館街道、甚至連附近的豬豬荒原都一探究竟。353Please respect copyright.PENANA96NzOzsdp2
353Please respect copyright.PENANAEn9Tz59YzX
「二郎,給你看個秘密。」353Please respect copyright.PENANArOcemlfHhP
353Please respect copyright.PENANA2ggnij8x3z
忠勝從寬鬆的深藍色武士服內抽出一把武士刀,與插在腰際上的兩把造型相同,令人不禁困惑為何要如此神秘地藏在內裏。353Please respect copyright.PENANA3KnDqjjQCH
353Please respect copyright.PENANAiZ5hKa1vbc
第一次見到忠勝的新武器,二郎驚呼:「忠勝哥……難道你其實是三刀流嗎!」353Please respect copyright.PENANAuQGVgf8NzA
353Please respect copyright.PENANA9DSOcfL3DW
「其實是『多刀流』,其他刀用魔法充當就好。」忠勝調皮賊笑,左手拍了拍腰際上的雙刀。353Please respect copyright.PENANAO6MdQusbGc
353Please respect copyright.PENANAyCZSvEy4dz
「什麼?魔法!?村長他不……」353Please respect copyright.PENANAZE7hupaMhH
353Please respect copyright.PENANAqqFqeDqNZm
「所以才跟你說是秘密啊,噓——告訴村長的話以後就不帶你來了。」353Please respect copyright.PENANAEIj98O7gYM
353Please respect copyright.PENANAZ1J0ohfvb7
被崇拜的表哥如此告誡,二郎毫無怨言地點頭,反正告密的話肯定也會被村長遷怒,根本得不償失。353Please respect copyright.PENANA0x21bwO1hH
353Please respect copyright.PENANA9Iu5TjfIdb
「全村裡我就只跟二郎你合得來。雖然以村子的角度來說這並不是好事,但是二郎,我覺得你跟我很像。」忠勝對著晚輩一笑,將腰際的其中一把刀抽出刀鞘,雙手各握一把,擺出雙刀流的架勢。353Please respect copyright.PENANAJS6bXQ2XSi
353Please respect copyright.PENANAgNnRepQj2V
在人煙稀少的豬豬荒原上,忠勝在二郎還未注意到險境前就率先發現了遠方豬豬的蹤影,他壓低重心,準備起跑。353Please respect copyright.PENANApoGnmeiwUS
353Please respect copyright.PENANAy4vtBjEZnI
「我們都渴望著探索這奇妙的世界。」353Please respect copyright.PENANAkUBM6tL3tT
353Please respect copyright.PENANAFqKQgZg8RS
剎那間,二郎只聽到這句話,早已不見忠勝的身影。353Please respect copyright.PENANAO79a4ezBCC
353Please respect copyright.PENANAsLKhjL805c
當他注意到大約一百公尺外的枯樹後方有一道渺小的豬影時,他才一同發現了忠勝的背影。353Please respect copyright.PENANAlmli0h0AGI
353Please respect copyright.PENANAo2IkQbrC8p
周圍散發紅色光暈的輪廓令人著迷,二郎第一次目睹人體發出那種光芒,他看著忠勝揮舞雙刀的模樣,就如同電視動畫裡那些異世界主角開掛般震撼。353Please respect copyright.PENANAGMvE55JgzT
353Please respect copyright.PENANAsZz93XMjJ3
那是他第一次見識到真正的魔法,幾乎已在村內成為禁詞的神秘元素,竟是這麼自由、多變、甚至強大的存在呀。353Please respect copyright.PENANAoCJ0iIO7Re
353Please respect copyright.PENANAp5usvEB5T0
「好……好強……」瞧見遠方瞬間在空中被大卸數十塊、像極了碎紙拼貼圖畫的豬隻剪影,二郎情不自禁地歡呼,「忠勝哥真是太強了——」353Please respect copyright.PENANAp4YEaTI3Zz
353Please respect copyright.PENANANCQ0OCBiVu
從那一次開始,忠勝只要有空(叛逆的他大部分都有空),應該是說只要等二郎當日的訓練提前完成,就會帶著他前往史塔特蘭參觀遊歷。353Please respect copyright.PENANAb3srm9qRTW
353Please respect copyright.PENANADKk0cEtCDt
二郎總是跟在身後,崇拜的目光不曾間斷。353Please respect copyright.PENANAqtDPY3dd8k
353Please respect copyright.PENANA2qbHynuDs1
還記得二郎總是吵著要忠勝傳授那些比村內任何人都還要強大的招式,宛如太陽般存在的忠勝卻意外拒絕了。353Please respect copyright.PENANAw6SUqXTJu4
353Please respect copyright.PENANAKkuQEh3hjE
「想學我的多刀流?當然沒問題啊,但我才不要教你,你該去追尋屬於自己的獨特刀法。」記憶中,他擺出一如往常狂妄又帶有點賊樣的笑容。353Please respect copyright.PENANAnFHWXpCCsQ
353Please respect copyright.PENANABjlP25u5jL
353Please respect copyright.PENANAeF5j5U3Gm6
「因為,你跟我一樣自由。」353Please respect copyright.PENANATdufg9cGtk
353Please respect copyright.PENANAtXMct3jttg
那是二郎最後一次跟在忠勝的屁股後面了。
353Please respect copyright.PENANAuYWu23nanP
過沒三天村子就發生了年輕人無故離村的背叛事件,如此重大新聞不用半個時辰便轟動了整個萊姆薩,所有人都帶著垃圾與掃帚來到忠勝的住處,從他提著家當吹著口哨離開家走到村子交界,村民沿途朝他丟了一路的怒罵。353Please respect copyright.PENANAty9QmNYqrM
353Please respect copyright.PENANAfRnrCou1AT
而那道終於解脫的灑脫背影,正是二郎對忠勝的最後一段記憶。
353Please respect copyright.PENANAGx2h3puJkt
更是他難以忘懷的最後一份自由。
