The World After Leaving the Hero Party

52 – Me too, you too – 1

It is not new that a nobleman of high status is under threat of assassination.

In particular, he is the head of the Claudia family, and there are quite a few families that can take over if Cecil Claudia, the current duke, dies.

As such, there must be many people who want her to die, especially outside the duchy.

After entering this world, I made full use of my knowledge of games, but I was aware that this world was not completely a game.

Most of the things that came out in the game came true, but things that didn’t come out also happened.

For example, the assassination attempt on Cecil in Leidin.

But even so, I couldn’t leave it alone. It’s just that there were no assassination attempts in Raidnin, but there were, and it was possible to see Cecil die from time to time.

No, this was not limited to Cecil.

There was no exception for character death when entering adventure mode after the main story was over.

“…under.”

The only escort next to her is Leventia.

More than ten beastmen were now targeting Cecile.

As a member of the warrior party, Leventia was in a position that was one of the strongest in terms of continental scale.

Even if there is such a strong person, if it is enough to draw a weapon, it must be said that there is that much confidence.

However. Is she in danger now? When asked, I will say it.

I could have said no.

That would be too.

“dare…!!”

-Chang-Geurang!!

“Who are you!!”

It was because this was Reidnin, the head of the Join tribe, Vermund Reidnin, who cherished it like his life.

-Chwaaa!!

The moment Vermund’s wings swung once, dozens of feathers flew like blades. No, a feather imbued with Vermund’s magic would be more dangerous than a blade.

The assassins, realizing who their opponents were and what they had done, turned their weapons in contemplation.

-visor!! Chae Ae Aeng!! visor!!

The sound of metal bouncing from the sword collided with the feathers that seemed sky-high. The sharp sound made Cecil and Leventia’s eyes turn this way.

“Do you know what animal cats hate?!”

“What?! That, that’s…”

children. got caught As several assassins’ eyes fell on me, Leventia swung her sword wide and decapitated one of the attacking assassins.

The moment the assassins who drew attention to me tried to ignore them and avert their eyes, I turned the moonlight into a microphone to draw more attention.

“Meerkat!! Ahahahaha!! Oh my gosh! Load the next gag! A building built with a phone?!”

“D-don’t listen!”

no use!!

“It’s the Colosseum! Oops! Isn’t it so much fun?! Next joke…”

Even if you don’t want to hear high-level jokes, you’re attracted to them! I cast the Clown’s Finest Joke a few times, and the pissed-offs pounced on me in a fit of rage.

“Kwaaak!!”

“My ears are going to rot! You son of a bitch!!”

I caught their attention with a powerful provocation and immediately converted the moonlight into a greatsword. and sword wind.

While the guys who were hit by the half-moon-shaped aura were getting more pissed off.

“Wind! I will tie them to the feathers of the shadows!!”

Vermund’s spell was activated. Blades of shadow formed on the dozens of feathers it shot out, and they moved around the room as if they were being blown by the wind.

And then, like a furiously spinning blade, it began to slaughter the wrathful assassins.

“Oh… awesome.”

It is a barrier of wind feathers that can only be used by join tribe shamans, especially shamans who are powerful enough to use ultimate skills.

While those caught in the barrier burst into pieces, I turned the moonlight into a staff and fired magic.

“Get down!”

Ice magic was activated on Leventia and Cecil.

“Ugh!”

Leventia immediately grabbed Cecil and lay flat on her face. At the same time, the attendant who had been lying face down trembling in the back suddenly stood up and activated flame magic.

-Kwaaang!!

“Suck!”

Ice and fire collided, canceling the magic.

The steam obscured my vision. But even so, it doesn’t matter. Because I have many experiences like this.

I pierced through the steam and inserted the moonlight converted into a dagger into the head of the sorcerer, a beast preparing for the next magic.

-Hook!!

sound good! Critical hit?!

While the one who was mortally wounded fell down, Vermund and Leventia were catching the remaining ones.

Well done!

But it’s not okay to be so engulfed in anger and kill everyone!

“Do it in moderation!!! Because we have to find out the back!!”

“Oh, thank you.”

Cecile, who was dumbfounded by my shouting, expressed her gratitude with a small mutter.

thank you for what

It’s because I can’t forgive the things that get in my way.

A few died, but I caught all of them. Among the living, there were those who lost one or two limbs, but there was no damage to their lives, and they couldn’t die gracefully anyway.

The beastmen guards who came up after hearing the commotion distorted their impressions towards the bloodied beastmen assassins.

“What the hell is this!”

“I’ll say it. Security chief!”

“Yes!”

At Vermund’s strong cry, one member of the tribe hurriedly walked out. The eyes of an eagle beast like him were shaking greatly. It was worth it. The fact that an assassin entered Raidin must be the work of the security department.

In the worst case, he was trembling with fear, probably because of the thought that he might be expelled from Raidin.

“Make sure we find out how these people got here.”

“Ah, I see.”

“Couldn’t the employees of Reidin have been bribed? They’re wearing employee uniforms. They’re…”

“These are not the ones who work for Raidin.”

“Huh? They’re beasts? They look similar to the beasts we saw earlier…”

I noticed some of the staff’s expressions darkened and stopped her.

“Hey. Princess. That’s racial discrimination.”

“Huh? No, I have no intention of doing so. As a prince, I advocate equality between races…”

“Anyway, it’s a bit sharp right now.”

“Kuhmm. Anyway. Hey. President Vermund. How are you going to take responsibility for this matter?”

“I have nothing to say to the guests. This is my mistake as the president. I will gladly offer any compensation.”

“Really? Then, shall we get a special room ticket first?”

“Yes.”

Now that this has happened, Vermund wouldn’t have anything to say even if he had ten mouths.

It certainly wouldn’t be a bad deal to lump it up to a privileged room ticket.

“and…”

Cecile casually asked for many things. Whether it’s top-notch wine, or adding items you need for your own birthday party.

Vermund accepted them without a murmur.

“This should be enough.”

“Thank you for your generosity.”

“What. I’ve been through a lot of assassination attempts. But if you find out who’s behind it, let me know.”

“Okay. Thank you for trusting me.”

Vermund bowed his head and gave instructions to the staff next to him. Anyway, it’s a special room.

“Couldn’t it be next to where I’m staying?”

“There’s no room outside right now.”

The top floor of the building next to the top floor of the main building.

In other words, while Cecil stayed in the special room, Lucille and Veronica’s vacation could overlap.

This is especially the case with public swimming pools and bars that can only be used by those staying in special rooms.

“…Hyeonu.”

If Cecil and Leventia were here together, they would be staying together. In other words, Leventia is also a special room.

I looked at Cecil, but she only looked at me with a sullen gaze.

“I want to get paid for saving you.”

“what?”

“Let’s live without minding each other during my vacation.”

“You… yes. You were a wise man.”

Did you remember it now, or did you know it from the beginning and pretended not to know?

Since it wasn’t important, I skipped it, and Cecile looked at me with interest before asking.

“Isn’t it possible to have a simple conversation between travelers?”

“It doesn’t matter if it’s a simple conversation, but I’m trying not to get involved. The people who came with me right now are people.”

“Who are you?”

“Princess of the Kingdom and Cardinal of the Church.”

I am the only one who is troubled when a political problem arises after getting involved. That’s why I cut and drew a line, and Cecile pondered and smiled.

“Then is it okay if I don’t get involved with those two?”

“right.”

“you are?”

I don’t care. They could cut it off on their own, and since Cecil was someone who wouldn’t cross the line, it would be okay.

I glanced at Leventia, who was hesitating behind Cecil.

As soon as our eyes met, she gave me a desperate look, but when she lowered her head, I turned my eyes to Cecile.

“It doesn’t matter.”

“Okay. Let’s do that.”

I held out my hand to Cecile, who accepted my proposal. Leventia let out a small exclamation while watching it, but when the original deal is finished, it’s the way to confirm it with a handshake like this.

Cecile, who held my hand, smiled and said in a small tone.

However, he spoke to me in a voice that Leventia could clearly hear.

“I’d like to give you some time in the evening if you don’t mind. I’d like to have a drink and have a sincere conversation at a bar that is reserved only for the number of guests staying in a special room.”

I smiled at Cecile.

That’s what I should say to today’s protagonists, not me.

When I returned to my room after a rough meeting, Lucille and Veronica were waiting for me. The two of them, wondering where I had been, turned serious when I told them what had happened earlier.

“Well, you don’t have to worry about assassins. Honestly, it’s amazing, but Vermund isn’t normal either…”

“Leventia-sama is here…”

“In addition, Prince Cecil is in a special room? You mean he’s staying over there?”

I looked in the direction she pointed and nodded. right.

“It’s right in front of you!”

“It’s right in front of you, but you won’t be able to come and go?”

“Isn’t it possible to surpass that level with the physical abilities of Prince Cecil and Leventia?”

Of course it is. There is a distance between the buildings, but both of them will have that much physical ability. But I had my own trust in Cecile.

“That woman doesn’t cross the line. Also, it’s not a noble’s job to just cross a building.”

“…But what about Reventia-sama?”

“He?”

I thought of Leventia, whom I hadn’t even met eyes with before.

He’ll come over just fine.

“Let’s just relax and enjoy our vacation. Ah, it’s already meal time. Anything you want to eat? Let’s eat on the terrace outside. Princess. If there’s anything you’d like to eat, let us know.”

Because you can eat pretty much anything here.

With my permission, Lucille said several dishes with twinkling eyes, and Veronica also named them. I nodded to the member of staff I was listening to next to me, and after a while.

A stylish dining room was set up on the terrace. All of them are colorful and delicious dishes.

“Wow! It looks delicious!”

“Really? Hyeonu. Shall we compare it to your dish and see what tastes better?”

“…Compared to a professional chef, I’m not good enough!”

I’m no expert!

Still, I’ll cook the meat better, right?

I put the seasoned meat on the prepared brazier. A professional chef will show you the difference between grilled meat and your own!

When you pick up the tongs and start grilling the meat, the savory smell rises. When the two of them were smiling at me while eating, I turned my head to a gaze I felt somewhere.

there.

Leventia, silently staring sadly at her, stood there.

What are you looking at?

When he grilled the meat for a long time and put it on a plate to feed Lucille and Veronica.

The two of them came closer to me with small plates without anyone saying anything first.

“Ego.”

“S, Master. aaa, do it.”

huh?

No, can you guys eat it?

“But you only grilled the meat and didn’t even taste it, did you?”

“We can’t just let Master suffer…”

Unknowingly, I looked towards Leventia. Her face was hardened and more blurred.

I felt like I knew something, but that didn’t change anything.
