49 – Rogue Hero

“Luciana is currently being courted by many men in the Republic.”

It was quite late when we arrived in Aidas, the capital of the republic.

Since the place is a bit far from the border, it is inevitable that you will be late even if you ride a carriage.

I thought it was rude to go to someone else’s mansion so late, so I promised to come back tomorrow during the day, and after dropping off only Luciena, we stayed at Adas separately.

And, I was able to hear from Ortrinde why Luciena’s condition was strange.

“Luciana’s current position is very special.”

According to Ortlinde, it is like this.

Luciana executes Rep. Verdimont, the most successful young politician in the current republic. In other words, it belongs to a relative relationship.

In other words, he has connections with those in power in the current Republic.

Moreover, she was originally planned to become the queen of the empire, so she was a wealthy woman who received a thorough education as a lady.

She is not only beautiful in appearance, but she also has excellent bloodlines as she originally came from a dukedom.

Moreover, although I don’t know where the money came from, rumors were going around that she also owned a mountain of dukedom assets.

…I still have them all.

Anyway, many upper-class single men in the republic courted her.

…No, in severe cases, not only single men but also married men… In this case, the problem becomes really serious, so Luciena is refusing with all her might.

Anyway, Luc Sienna herself doesn’t have anyone in particular that catches her eye, and she has rejected all the advances she has received so far.

In this process, those who were courting normally fell away on their own, and those who remained were the problem.

They went beyond attacking Lucien more violently and even attempted to hire someone to kidnap her.

Of course, Ortrinde, who was with Luciena, was said to have destroyed all the kidnappers to protect them, but it was a very dangerous situation.

Representative Verdimont, who could no longer ignore the situation, took action, and such a serious situation no longer occurred, but there were still those who attacked Lucien.

Unless the other party breaks the law, it is difficult for Rep. Verdimont to take action directly.

That’s why my expression looked very tired to her Lucy.

The fact that I was late getting into the carriage earlier must have something to do with it.

…Can’t we just find a good person and marry him? I’d like to, but this is a matter where we have to consider Lucien’s feelings…

There is no way I can solve this.

Anyway, I thought I would at least talk about whether there is a way I can solve it.

After the story about Luciana was over, the next thing was to gather information.

First, Ortrinde decided to enter the Republic and collect the remains of her goddess and similar information.

Ortrinde was able to travel around the Republic in the name of Luciena’s escort, with her cooperation.

Of course, Lucie could not take me to a place too far from the capital, which limited the scope of her activities, but that did not mean she was without income.

“…I don’t know if it is a ruin related to the goddess, but it is said that there is an old ruin recently discovered in the southeastern part of the Republic.”

It was none other than information about the ruins.

Although there is no confirmation that these are the remains of the goddess, it is said that she recently discovered old ruins during construction to expand the scope of urban development in the Republic.

It is said that the Republic immediately stopped urban development, designated the area around the ruins as a special protection area, organized personnel, and began excavation work.

…Well, it is said that it has now been stopped due to the invasion of the Empire by the Demon King’s army.

The fact that the work was stopped was good news for me.

The problem is how to enter the ruins.

As it is a special protection area, the Republic will be on very strict guard.

“Can’t we just force our way in?”

Zikrune’s opinion.

…No, it’s always been that way and it’s not wrong…

“No, I have no intention of blaming the Republic…? What are you going to do by committing a crime?”

Until now, our opponents were the Kingdom of Cloeti and the Halfas Empire, which we just wanted to ruin, so we just pushed on.

I’m not really an enemy of the Republic, and I don’t want to do anything that stands out since it’s a country I’ll be indebted to for the time being.

When I said that, Zikrune smiled and said.

“hahahaha! Master, you seem so worried.”

“Huh?”

“Master, it’s not a crime as long as you don’t get caught.”

“……”

Bwaaak!!

“Ahh!! Sister, why are you hitting me?!”

As soon as Zikrune finished speaking, Ortlinde hit Zikrune hard on the back of the head.

Halfas Empire, Ecliptic Shale Ark.

In the imperial palace, the crown prince was holding his head.

With the help of the cult of fanaticism, he succeeded in bringing down a hero.

Yes, success is good, but the problem was the hero.

Time returns to immediately after the hero descended.

“What… A hero… Am I?”

“Yes, you are a hero given to this country by God…To fight against the devil’s army…”

“Is it…A summoning from another world or something…?”

A man talking gibberish.

He seemed genuinely embarrassed, but at the same time he was looking around in surprise.

The crown prince was a little enraged by the hero who was listening to his words, but his opponent was a hero who was supposed to fight for the empire.

Forcing down the rising anger, the crown prince smiled and waited for the hero to listen to him.

Then, after the warrior calmed down, he told him the whole situation.

The warrior from the previous generation befriended the Demon King and defeated him, but the Demon King’s army quickly revived and invaded the empire again.

The invasion of the Demon King’s army was so strong that the warriors were called again.

After telling all the facts, he held out the holy sword, and the new hero accepted it with confidence.

In this way, a new hero, Kenji, was born in the empire.

But the warriors could not be sent into battle right away.

The hero is a beginner who has never swung a sword or used magic before.

He was now so weak that not even a trained soldier could defeat him.

I wondered if this was a hero, but Princess Anies spoke from the side as if to complement it.

“…Hans, the hero, was weak to the point of sighing at first. I think that’s how heroes are.”

It is said that the warrior Hans also became stronger as he honed his swordsmanship and magic in the Kingdom of Cloeti and experienced combat.

The strength of his hero lies in his incredible growth rate.

So the crown prince gave the hero Kenji the title of education.

Princess Anies for swordsmanship training, and Alessa for magic training.

It is a very luxurious arrangement to be a member of the squadron hero party.

In this way, the hero will grow stronger and defeat that hateful demon lord.

The two people were sent with such expectations.

But the warrior did not move so easily.

From noble mtl dot com

“I’m going crazy! I’m not practicing swordsmanship properly when I’m told to…”

Princess Anies, who was in charge of swordsmanship instruction for the warrior Kenji, grumbled.

She called him to the training hall to teach him swordsmanship, but the warrior Kenji did not show up at the training hall.

In the end, Princess Anies went to the room where the hero was staying, and found him s*xually harassing the maid who was taking care of him.

Princess Anyes was furious and forcibly dragged the hero Kenji away.

She gave him her wooden sword and taught him her swordsmanship, but he had little motivation.

The problem is that it did not end there.

“Later, he started flirting with me? What kind of hero is this…”

“……”

“I asked you to refrain from doing such things because I am His Highness’s wife, but you made some nonsense saying that it would be better if you were someone else’s wife…”

For a brief moment, the crown prince, who almost sympathized with the hero’s words, came to his senses and shook his head, wondering what a crazy idea this was.

I thought that this hero had really noble tastes.

It wasn’t just Princess Anyes’ swordsmanship instruction.

Alessa’s magic map was similar.

Kenji is a hero who has no motivation and only shows a really bad attitude, such as flirting with Alessa, who is in charge of guidance.

Alessa, who went to teach magic and was s*xually harassed by a warrior, came back in tears and got angry.

“What’s with all that? Hans, the hero, was better!”

Although he had a kind and foolish personality and was trusting of others, he still listened to people well and was diligent in his training, so I almost missed Hans.

How on earth can he motivate that guy? The crown prince had to worry.

Shall we throw some bait?

Watching her flirt with her beau, it seemed like the trick of seducing her with the promise of a beautiful and noble beau would work.

The problem is that there are no particularly beautiful women to offer.

First of all, when asked to name the most beautiful women in the empire, there are three crown princesses: Anies, Siella, and Alessa.

But they are already married to the crown prince, so they cannot give it to them.

And Lucien, the duke’s daughter, who was originally the crown prince’s fiancée.

However, Lucien escaped to the Republic and Lasis went to catch her.

She can’t trust and wait for Raysis, who doesn’t know when she will return.

And there is Freud’s own younger sister, the princess, but the problem is that she is too young.

Will the hero be moved by giving him a young princess who is only 4 years old?

…No, if you move it under pressure, it’s just a problem.

“…Call the warrior Kenji. Let’s ask him directly if there is anything he wants.”

What the crown prince can give.

Gold and silver treasures, honor, titles, etc.

If you wanted that, I was going to give you anything.

That’s because the empire was in crisis right now.
