I Was Banished From the Hero Party I Raised

10. Dulljae and Genius (6)

Vivian asked first.

“How is Helena?”

“I feel much better, but today I will rest well and continue to sleep. Mana exhaustion is coming.”

For superhumans, exercise is not just about improving physical abilities.

If you exhaust your stamina to a certain extent, you will naturally draw mana from your body to strengthen your body.

A knight, an archer, a wizard, or a priest.

Strengthening the body using mana is a basic virtue.

One of the purposes of exercise is to embody it very naturally.

This is the reason Helena suffered from mana exhaustion simply by running for a long time.

I explained it to Vivian and Helena one day, so they’ll remember.

“Will it be all right tomorrow?”

“I will.”

“But aren’t you supposed to be taking care of me?”

“I am sleeping now. Kati and Mercy are watching instead of me.”

“Um, that’s right… .”

After leaving the training center, I walked on the main road.

Thanks to Vivian speaking up first, the embarrassing awkwardness fortunately disappeared.

“But, uh… . Where are we going?”

“I’m going to buy a book.”

Gradually, it was time for Vivian to learn a higher level of magic.

You should also know the theory of magic.

It’s an outing for that.

“… ah?”

“Now that you’ve mastered the five basic spells, I think you’d better have a book to move on to the next level.”

“Ah, ah… . That’s right! That’s right!”

“… ? Is there any place you would like to go?”

“yes. … Yeah? uh? No, no?”

but.

Vivian has never rested in peace.

Even when I went to Magdalen Monastery, I was still training alone.

It’s good to focus on training for the time being, but it might be better to let him rest while he’s out today.

Just like rest is training, it’s important to change your mood from time to time.

“Where did you want to go?”

“Ah, ugh… That, no, that, what… . Iknow, right… .”

“Tell me if you remember.”

“yes… .”

“I’m going to buy a magic book anyway, can you read?”

“Well… . It is very basic to teach children.”

“You’ll need a grammar book or a dictionary, too.”

I got out of the training center and entered the street corner of the shopping mall.

There were as many people as it had grown, but few recognized Vivian.

Near the training center, naturally, people related to the training center are often active.

There are bound to be many people around her who know Vivian.

But in a place so far away and so crowded, few recognized Vivian.

The outfit wasn’t a wizard’s attire, it was just casual, well-groomed clothing.

With the natural silence settled down, I forgot my training for a while and walked peacefully.

“Oops!”

Suddenly Vivian tripped.

I quickly caught her about to fall.

“Look out.”

“Yes, yes… .”

She leaned on my arm and slowly adjusted her posture.

“Are you not hurt?”

“yes… . It’s just a twisted foot.”

“Then I’m glad. You can’t get hurt.”

“… … .”

I don’t want to go in a hurry, but I also don’t intend to go too leisurely.

You have to train and grow steadily every day, but if you get injured in a place like this, your growth can be slow.

Aside from all that, no one likes to see a colleague get hurt.

We arrived at the largest bookstore in Supevia.

It was a magnificent scale almost reminiscent of a temple.

Vivian opened her mouth and looked around.

“Wow… .”

Every time I come, I wonder if I have collected all the books in the world.

“Have you ever read a magic book?”

“Ugh, no. How many times have I peeked out of the corner of my eye… .”

“Hmm. Once with this… .”

I’ve been here a few times, so I picked up the book familiarly.

Vivian’s eyes trembled anxiously as she checked the name of the book.

[Introduction to magic in one book (including geometry and basic natural science) – Author Scarlett]

‘geometry… What is this?’

It’s written that way on your face.

[The nature and manner of magic elements. About the subordinate correlation – Author Scarlett]

[Low to Intermediate Elemental Magic Scheme Collection and Commentary – Authors Scarlett, Hayden von Münchengrad]

“There are a lot of names called Scarlett.”

The author of more than half of the magic books was Scarlett.

“Because I give you the magic tower.”

“… Yeah? magic tower… main? Does the owner of the Magic Tower know?”

… oh

My memory from the second playthrough was confused for a moment with now.

Most of the people who live in the Mage Tower cut ties with the secular world.

He spoke as if he knew the representative of them, the Master of the Magic Tower, so there is nothing to say even if he thinks it strange.

“that is… . little bit? Just by chance.”

Let’s admit it insignificantly.

I’m not asking for details… wouldn’t

“Wow… . So what about this Hayden? There are many names for this person.”

“I am the head of the Imperial Magic Division.”

“Did you know because of the first party?”

“Hayden is because of the 1st party, but the Mage Tower Lord, just personally… .”

I think it’s more strange to know personally, but I can’t think of anything to explain… .

There’s no way to check it, so that’s fine.

“Is this the book you chose after knowing everything?”

“You can do that.”

Next, Vivian chose a grammar book and the Imperial Standard Dictionary to read.

“If there is something you do not know while studying, ask me. Because you don’t have to be sick alone.”

“Any magic?”

“What… I know the basic theory, yes.”

“What if you ask me every day… .”

Next, Helena picked out the ball combat manual.

It’s good to learn on your own, but reading a book can be another help.

“If you want to buy Vivian separately, pick one.”

“Um… .”

As if she had already thought of something, Vivian brought a book right away.

“This… .”

[Me before you, you after me – Author William Austin]

“What is this?”

“that is… .”

Suddenly, a bookstore clerk interrupted and explained it in a chattering way.

“Excellent choice! This is the masterpiece of William Austen, the master of romance novels of this era! In the process of meeting and loving two wounded men and women, they embrace and heal each other’s wounds, the definitive version of a touching and fateful love… !”

“Shall I take it out?”

“No, I was just curious. If you want to read, you should read.”

I counted it all at once, including that love novel.

I paid 2 gold.

The price of the magic book Scarlett wrote was considerable.

2 gold is a pretty big value, but not for me right now.

“Where should I spend my money… .”

“Well, first of all, I’m buying this for training, so wouldn’t it be right for me to use it?”

“Um… . is it… ?”

“There will be things to spend money on in the future.”

Saying so, he handed over two notebooks.

“How did you manage your money in the past?”

“I’ve never gathered enough to call it official… .”

Well. That would be it too.

“One notebook is for study. And the other, for recording income and expenses.”

“… Income and expenses?”

“It’s very important to keep track of how much you earn and how much you spend.”

Didn’t they say that money management begins with the entry of pocket money?

is part of it

Vivian, who was looking at her notebook with a blank expression, asked abruptly.

“Did you teach the first party something like this? Ah, I guess it was Philip who taught me… .”

It’s the first party… .

I don’t know economics, but everyone tried to teach me how to manage money so that I could take care of my own business.

To be honest, I wasn’t going to be responsible for their whole life.

After defeating the demon king, shouldn’t each person know which way to go?

If you’re going to live supporting them for the rest of your life, there’s no point in killing the demon king.

I’ll die soon from the stress.

What did you say when I asked you to record your income and expenses? .

‘Do I really have to do this? aaa, I hate it. Wouldn’t it be nice if Ian did everything? … What would I do then without you? what do you mean by that now? will you leave me huh? Ian? What are you saying? Say it again. Say it again.’

Sylvia.

‘… Isn’t it your job to do all of this? What would I do without you? Why does that happen? I don’t think there’s any place other than here… .’

aria.

‘Like weak people like you obsess over technology, idiots care about unnecessary things like this. Neither do you, and I have no problem with anything like this. ask one Do I need something like this to kill the Demon King? to get stronger? … I can’t answer. Just go away.’

Kylie.

‘Do you think I followed you to do something like this? I came along to get into a position where I’m being pampered by guys like you. If I was going to take care of such a trivial matter, I wouldn’t even start in the first place. So don’t waste my time.’

Beatrice.

… Among them, Beatrice paid particular attention.

Because I remember hearing that this guy got hit in the back of the head and ran amok about money in the second playthrough.

He was a guy who likes to stand on top of others, so he had a lot to tell.

It is true that during the first party’s training time, the weight of training to become stronger is absolutely high.

But, not all.

Starting with simple economic common sense, I tried to teach morals and ethics, society and culture, and language and letters.

I did it to make sure that the malice of the second round didn’t manifest, and I also did it so that they could live well by taking care of each other later.

After getting out of my fence, I thought it would be uncomfortable if the uneducated guys started rampaging each other.

Anyway, part of their training time was also ‘education’.

Sylvia was my word, so I pretended to obey.

Arya listened quite well, saying that groups of humans are amazing when it comes to society and culture.

Kylie and Beatrice despise it all, to the point that I paid for it.

Listen to it a few times.

Of course, those few times were all.

… Wasn’t it all to no avail?

Is this the harm of indoctrination education, or are they the problem… .

“… Ian? Did a fly get in your mouth? Why is the expression… .”

“Ah, thinking deeply for a moment. Well, the first party did something similar.”

“I see… . How amazing. I don’t think there’s a manager or anyone who can tell you this… .”

Vivian held the notebook in her hand as if it were precious.

“I will try hard. Thanks, Ian.”

… what is it

Can I be moved by this… .

I don’t know, because it’s good, everything is good… .

*

I didn’t go back to training camp right away.

I thought it would be nice to do everything that I can do while I came out.

There is a little bit of it because I was moved and wanted to do something more.

This place is colorful, bright, and cute, and it seems like a group of girls will come and play.

It’s a dessert shop.

It was a favorite place for women and young girls from families who were said to be able to touch money in Supebia.

It is a shop that prioritizes the purpose of enjoying refreshments rather than socializing.

“Hehe… !”

Vivian couldn’t keep her mouth shut while looking at the various candies and jellies that decorated the world colorfully.

“Ahh… .”

“Do you like it?”

“yes! very! Awesome!”

Recent observations show that Vivian likes sweets.

To be honest, I was skeptical, but I’m glad I liked it.

Vivian wandered in all directions, choosing as many desserts as she wanted.

A smile as innocent and bright as a child never left his face.

Vivian, who picked out a bunch of desserts, smiled brightly throughout the tour.

“Ian, thank you so much!”

I just had to like it.

Sometimes it’s important to have a day off like this.

***

When Vivian returned to her room, Helena was sleeping in her bed.

“Ah, you’re here. I moved it when I woke up earlier.”

Mercy whispered softly.

“Did you have a good date?”

“Ah… . yes yes he… ?”

Vivian answered with a breathless voice, and Kati slowly turned to Vivian.

Vivian turned away from that gaze and replied in a muffled tone.

“Well, I just went to buy a book… .”

“Hehe… . Was that really all there was?”

“Of course… .”

Because of Mercy’s persistent inquisitiveness, Vivian went out and told her everything about what had happened with Ian.

The more they talked, the closer Kati got to Vivian.

“Yeah, that’s how it happened… . That, Kati, it’s too close… .”

“Isn’t the date right!”

Mercy yelled mischievously, and Kati asked abruptly.

“Master, how are you?”

“What? Are you Ian? Uh, um… .”

Vivian thought of Ian, who was with her today.

Contrary to that bloody appearance, Ian has a pretty good smile.

It’s a little too much to call it a smile, but it’s a light laugh close to a mockery… .

Still, today, Ian showed a smile that was close to a smile.

Especially when Vivian said thank you.

“Ian, um, I think I liked it. It seemed a bit comfortable… .”

“okay.”

Kati nodded and walked away.

As if that was enough.

Seeing Kati like that, Mercy sighed briefly.

“I was too playful.”

Kati shook her head as if it was nothing and sat next to Helena who was sleeping.

It’s their place, as if that’s what they’re supposed to do.

‘… It looks lonely.’

Kati’s expression hardly changes, so it’s hard to tell.

However, the present Kati had a lonely expression on her face.

The eyes were also covered and it was so unchanging that it was hard to see, but Vivian could feel it now.

When I saw that lonely expression, I felt guilty for no reason.

“I-I did something wrong… .”

-widely.

Mercy grabbed Vivian’s hand and shook her head.

I meant don’t talk.

I remembered the advice Mary had given me before.

I don’t know why the saying that humility is deception comes to mind.

Vivian finally said nothing and sat down cautiously on the bed.

I wasn’t in the mood to study, so I started with romance novels.

It was the book of ‘William Austin’ who has been talking about it to the point where it’s been around since before.

I was also at an age (25 years old) who was very curious about dating.

When I turned the first page, a line of sentences was embedded in the middle of the wide paper like a mark.

[Why does love turn us back into children.]

“… … .”

After reading that one sentence, Vivian couldn’t turn the book for a long time.

-widely!

Vivian, who came to her senses, quickly closed the book and opened the book of magic schematics.

Recalling the two magics Ian told me to master, I searched for a schematic.

Flame Strike, Ice Bloom.

Vivian focused more on her magic research to get rid of her thoughts.

On the way back, Ian said that he would be put into a dungeon soon.

You shouldn’t take a break just because you’re not in the mood to study.

You have to keep working hard and trying to get stronger.

The black barley piled up in the warehouse in Badenberg was quickly hulled.

The dark beer brewed and aged in the brewery was consumed busily.

Since it was the first promotion of the first specialty product of the 1st Warriors Party, the value was enormous.

The problem is, it really didn’t taste all that good.

Basically, barley that has been stored for too long has already deteriorated too much in quality.

Some of them were damaged or rotten.

Beer was similar.

Beer of much lower quality than the one provided to the 1st warrior party was consumed everywhere.

People’s reactions were divided into two parts.

“Uh, maybe it’s because it was praised by the first party, so it’s a little different even if it’s different.”

“Why not? They say it’s a drink drunk by heroes who won’t exist in the century, of course!”

Those who drink not beer, but the name of the first party.

“Is this so delicious?”

“Just what… . It may seem normal… .”

“This is no ordinary axis! Who would buy something like this at this price?”

“My husband drank this, and since yesterday he hasn’t been able to wake up properly! Diarrhea all day long! How did this happen!”

Those who are honest regardless of the 1st party.

In reality there were more of the latter, but they were not publicly commented on.

There was no way anyone would express a negative opinion about the affair with the 1st Hero Party.

Is it the beer, the barley, or the Badenberg?

In a strange flow that no one can blame the 1st warrior party.

A rumor spread.

“Kylie-sama, well… .”

“If you were stabbed by the person in the first party, that person must have done it wrong!”

“But no matter how much you stab people, is that why you use it?”

“Uh huh, are you suspicious of the 1st Hero Party?”

“Not necessarily… .”

“I heard that the 1st warrior party started receiving money?”

“money? The ones who refused like that?”

“Well, the manager has changed… .”

“Kylie stabbed someone for money?”

With truth and lies mixed, rumors that started in Badenberg slowly spread across the continent.

Without even knowing that rumors were spreading.

The carriage carrying the 4 members of the first party ran to the stop near the A-class dungeon in an awkward silence.

“… … .”

Beatrice was the first to break the silence, each for their own reasons.

Nervously, she opened her mouth.
