Jobless Reincarnation: Emiya the Great Hero Must Show His True Skills

As Shirou had predicted, Sylphie indeed had no talent for swordsmanship. Her small body and weak arms made it impossible for her to even lift a prop sword, let alone assume the correct posture when practicing swordsmanship.

Although Sylphie tried her best to meet Shirou's request, talent is often the cruelest and most ruthless thing in the world.

There is no doubt that Silphie has no talent in swordsmanship.

But as the saying goes, when God closes a door, he always opens a window.

Although Hilfi is not good at swordsmanship, she is very talented in magic, even too talented. After practicing magic for only a few days, she was already able to cast basic water magic, and her speed was no less than that of Rudeus, who was self-taught in the past.

In addition to the high adaptability of magic itself, Silphi also possesses the talent of casting spells without chanting.

Although her success rate with no-chantment magic is inconsistent and fluctuates because she is just starting out, it is still much better than Shirou's, who is completely unable to perform no-chantment magic except for sword magic.

Such exceptional talent made Rudeus feel a sense of crisis. While teaching Sylphie, he also practiced magic even harder on his own, clearly not wanting to be easily surpassed by Sylphie.

It's worth mentioning that after tasting Shirou's cooking, Sylvie was deeply impressed by its deliciousness and kept pestering Shirou to teach her how to cook.

Although Shirou didn't want such a young child in the kitchen, he couldn't persuade her otherwise, so he had to let Sylphie follow him and help him gain cooking experience.

Sylphie was very serious, and although she was clumsy in many ways, she made up for her lack of talent with her attitude and her performance gradually improved. Even Lilia couldn't help but praise Sylphie, saying that she might have a lot of talent as a maid.

In conclusion, Silphie's life in the Grerat family was gradually getting back on track.

No one in the Grerat family discriminated against her because of her hair color. Although Rudius was somewhat dissatisfied with her, it was only because he was worried that his brother's position might be threatened. In essence, he was still very concerned about Sylphie, who had suffered greatly from being bullied like him.

With the love and care of the Grerat family, Hilfi gradually emerged from her previous shadows, becoming less gloomy and withdrawn, and even occasionally showing a smile on her face.

Shirou was happy about Sylphie's change and felt that if everything continued like this, Sylphie would surely be able to completely emerge from the shadow of being bullied.

However, as the saying goes, hope and despair are always intertwined, and happiness and pain are often inseparable...

One day, Shirou was patrolling the village as usual, keeping an eye on the forest to make sure no monsters were around.

After finishing his patrol, he began his journey home.

But during the process, he suddenly heard the voices of children talking by the roadside.

Since it was just children's conversation, Shirou didn't want to pay too much attention to it, but when the content of the conversation reached his ears, Shirou's expression still changed.

"Have you heard? Somar met that green-haired guy at the knight's house!"

"Oh?! We've finally found the location of that Spelud tribe member!"

"So she's been hiding in the knight's house all this time!"

"The knight family has fallen too, actually taking in an evil Sperud!"

"It seems that the knight family are actually accomplices of the demons!"

"..."

Although it may sound like the unintentional words of children, Shirou knows very well that sometimes it is precisely this attitude, which is indifferent to good and evil, that is more likely to cause harm to people.

An instinctive unease suddenly arose in his heart, and his actions became incredibly swift.

After rushing back to the Grellard's house, Shirou immediately searched for Sylphie's whereabouts, but he couldn't find the familiar girl anywhere.

Instead, Rudeus suddenly rushed over in a panic and said, "Shirou, some village kids came to our house just now. Silph said something to them and then left in a hurry."

"what?"

The uneasy premonition suddenly became a reality, and Shirou clenched his fists, an uncontrollable rage even rising within him instinctively!

Chapter 59: The Story of Silphie.

Hilufiet grew up in the village of Bouyena.

She had a reliable father and a gentle mother. Both parents loved her and gave her a lot of care and love, allowing little Shilufi to live a simple and happy life from childhood.

Of course, her family was not wealthy. Her father's income was barely enough to support the family, and her mother had to do extra work to save enough money to live on.

From a young age, Hilfi helped alleviate the pressure on her busy parents by not only helping with housework but also often thoughtfully doing things for them.

For Silphie, this kind of life, though uneventful and without any waves, was happy enough that she even hoped it could continue for the rest of her life.

However, Hilfi soon noticed something unusual: her father seemed to be intentionally or unintentionally preventing her from going to the village of Buyena.

There are many children of my age in the village, and my parents usually work in the village, so why doesn't my father allow me to play in the village?

Yes, Silphie actually still longs to interact with children her own age.

She envied the children who went out to play in groups and hoped to join them and become one of the cheerful smiles in the group.

When she brought up the idea to her father, she saw a troubled expression on his face for the first time.

Roltz seemed to be caught in a dilemma, not wanting her to go to the village, yet unsure how to refuse her.

In the end, the sensible Silphie chose to give up going to the village, not wanting to cause trouble for her father.

Roltz breathed a sigh of relief, thinking that Sylphie was truly a good child.

But a thorn remained in Sylphie's heart. She couldn't understand why she couldn't go to the village, why she was different from everyone else.

In this confused state, Silphie unexpectedly encounters the red-haired boy.

That day, she was supposed to deliver a lunchbox that her father had forgotten to bring. At his request, she did not take the main road of the village, but instead followed a small path to the tower.

Although Hilfi was dissatisfied, she ultimately trusted her father's words and would not do anything against him.

When she arrived at the tower, she unexpectedly encountered Shirou, who was also there looking for Roltz.

Because it was the first time she had met a child close to her age, Hilfi was taken aback. She quickly realized that Shirou was several years older than her, old enough to be her older brother.

Upon seeing Shirou, Sylphie instinctively became very nervous, unsure of how to interact with a child her own age.

Most importantly, because Roltz never allowed her to go to the village, Sylphie had an instinctive fear of children her own age, feeling that these people might do bad things to her.

However, Hilfi soon realized she was overthinking things.

Shirou not only didn't hurt her, but also gave her something delicious. She was a gentle person, just like her father, or perhaps even gentler.

From that day on, Silphie developed a longing for the village.

She began to want to go to the village to find Shirou and get to know this kind-hearted peer.

Of course, because of Roltz's attitude, she didn't voice this thought, but kept it to herself.

After that, the Grellard family suffered a major fire, which led Shirou and Rudeus to stay at Sylphie's house.

Sylphie then met the brothers Shirou and Rudeus.

She thought both brothers were good people. Shirou was a given, and even Rudeus, who always seemed dissatisfied with her, was actually just a soft-hearted kid with a sharp tongue.

During the days Shirou stayed at Sylphie's house, Rudeus not only took care of Shirou day and night, but also often helped Sylphie's family with various tasks.

All of this left a deep impression on Sylphie.

Therefore, Hilfi gradually began to doubt her father's words.

Even though Shirou and Rudeus are both good people, even gentler than I imagined, why doesn't my father allow me to go to the village?

With these questions in mind, Silphi spent a long time.

Especially after Shirou and Rudeus returned to the new Grellard family, and because they were busy learning magic from Loki, they hadn't had much contact with Sylvie. Sylvie's increasingly lonely heart finally gave rise to uncontrollable thoughts—

She wanted to find Shirou and Rudeus, and she wanted to make more friends.

She didn't want to be alone anymore.

So, while Rolze was out hunting and his mother was going to work in town, Silphi secretly slipped out of the house and made her way to the village of Bouyena.

The village was peaceful and serene, with crops and waterwheels everywhere, looking as beautiful as a painting.

As Silphi walked through the countryside, she felt as if she had become one with this beautiful painting.

My heart couldn't help but feel more and more excited and elated.

However, there was one thing that puzzled Hilfi: when adults and elderly people on the street saw her, their expressions would change slightly, and they would instinctively take a step back and whisper among themselves.

Hilfi couldn't understand the adults' reactions, but since they hadn't done anything to her, she figured it probably wasn't a big deal.

Sylphie's goal is to find the Grellard family. She wants to find Shirou and Rudeus, continue to be friends with those two kind brothers, and even build a closer relationship with them.

However, Hilfi didn't know where Grerat's house was, and the adults around her avoided her, so she couldn't ask.

Just as she was feeling distressed, she noticed boys her age walking towards her in groups from a distant country lane, carrying insect-catching poles and nets.

Seeing people her own age, Hilfi was both nervous and excited, and couldn't say a word for a moment.

But recalling Shirou and Rudeus's appearance, she mustered her courage and asked the group of children if they knew the location of the Grellard's house.

Upon hearing Luo Qixi's words, the group of boys paused for a moment, then all revealed hostile expressions.

One of the boys even pointed at her head and shouted, "Green hair! Green hair! She's a Speyrud!"

"My God, they're Speluds! How can there be demons here?!"

"Evil demon, what brings you to our village? Prepare to die!"

"Demons, get out of the village!"

The boys were initially quite nervous and even fearful of Hilfi, worried that this terrifying demon would eat people like in the stories.

However, they soon discovered that this demon was not the terrifying being described in the story. Not only did it not eat people, but it also began to tremble when it heard their curses.

The children's interest was quickly piqued.

They surrounded Hilfi and kicked and punched her, with some children even throwing mud at her.

They laughed as they committed all sorts of evil deeds.

"Those despicable Speluds are no match for us humans!"

"A hit to the head scores ten points!"

"I hit it! I'm a legendary hero!"

A group of boys surrounded Hilfi and did all sorts of wicked things, fully unleashing their inherent malice.

Hilfi held her head in her hands and squatted on the ground the whole time, tears streaming down her face.

She didn't know why it was like this.

Why am I being treated this way?

Why do they all see themselves as enemies?

Why am I being bullied like this...?

What truly devastated Silphi was not the bullying by the children, nor the physical pain from being beaten, but the shattering of her spirit.

She couldn't understand why she was being treated this way.

Even though I am just a human being like them.

How can they laugh while beating themselves?

After venting their anger, the children laughed and scattered, going back to boast about how they had defeated the evil Spelud tribe.

Adults generally assume that children are just playing house and don't take their words seriously.

Sylphie, exhausted, limped home and encountered Roltz, who was frantic, as if his hair was on fire.

"Sylphie!!"

"..."

Faced with her father's concern, Hilfi remained completely silent.

She kept apologizing to the other party, apologizing for running away to the village against her will.

She sees herself as a bad child, and it is because she is a bad child that she suffers such pain.

In an instant, she was completely overwhelmed by guilt and pain...

From that day on, Hilfi completely shut herself off, not only daring not to step out of the house, but also no longer able to feel her parents' love.

Roltz couldn't stand it anymore and took her to the Greirat family.

When Sylphie saw Shirou and Rudeus again at the Grellard's house, she was initially terrified.

She worried that the two brothers would bully and beat her like the others in the village.

However, she soon realized that her thoughts were unnecessary; they were still as gentle as before and treated her with the same normal attitude.

So, in reality, before Shirou sought out Rudeus for a sparring match, Sylphie had already returned to her original form. However, she still felt uneasy, worried that it was all just a dream.

It wasn't until Shirou and Rudeus demonstrated that a new world opened up for Sylphie.
