I Ended My Engagement With My Childhood Friend, the Hero - I Ended My Engagement With My Childhood Friend, the Hero chapter 2

2 – Are you kidding me?

You know Alan.

Can I sit next to you?

I heard that you hit the kid next door the other day.

You say it was for me?

She says you got mad because he made fun of me for calling me a parentless b*tch, and she took revenge on him instead?

hehehe… This is why I like Alan.

It’s so cool.

And he’s kind…

You know. Alan. I don’t have parents, but I never felt alone.

Because you are there.

Sometimes like a father, sometimes like an older brother, sometimes like a friend…

From noble mtl dot com

It’s because you’ve always been by my side.

What do you want to say…?

Unnoticed…

It’s embarrassing for a girl to say such a thing.

Perhaps if I hesitate here, I will probably miss you, right?

So I decided to talk today.

Alan. I like you so much

I like you like a father, and I like you like an older brother. I like you too, like a friend.

But…

I want to get better here. You.

Can I be a little more greedy here?

There is one thing I lack…

That’s not a father, brother, or friend.

Right… A loved one.

That’s… You’re the only one who can do it.

Alan. Will you marry me

Alan… I don’t think I can live without you.

Will you love me forever?

Then I will love you for the rest of my life.

Huh? Do you love me

hehehe… I’m glad.

Tonight… I want to be with you.

“Haa…”

On the way to leave the warrior party.

Of course, I like it or hate it in my head, but I can’t help but think strongly about my ex-fiancée, Raina.

As much as she occupied in my life was by no means small…

Although they had only been dating her for three years, as a childhood friend she had grown up with, her affection for her was by no means light.

For a while, I had no choice but to lie down and stare at the sky, reminiscing about the past.

He was kind and cute in the past…

“I thought you would stay by my side…”

And, of course, that was the reason why she gave her life for her and gave her the strength of a warrior.

She never dreamed that she would abandon me.

As I said before, she was a really nice and cute child in the past.

If only I knew this would happen…

I wouldn’t have given you…

To be honest, I did have some regrets.

“Let’s forget. Forget.”

But what do I have to think about?

I decided to just be cool and forget about it.

A woman who had already left me, of course there was no reason to pay more attention.

Let’s just imagine being bitten by a snake while walking down the street.

That seemed right.

“So now… What are you doing?”

In that sense, I stood up again.

And I thought about what I would do from now on.

Originally, I planned to get married after defeating the demon king with Raina at the warrior party.

The goal was to simply run a simple family home.

But now, after we broke up like this, my purpose was after it disappeared.

Because of that, I had no choice but to think about what to do now.

That concern has not been resolved.

Because I, who had only aimed at subjugating the demon lord until now, didn’t have anything else in mind.

“First of all… Whatever you do. The most important thing… Is this, right?”

But I knew what to do right now.

Looking through my pockets, I saw my own pockets.

No matter what you do, you will need basic money.

“Finished. It’s also the capital, shall we go there?”

I saw a huge red flag along with a huge wall in front of me.

That place was Sertana, the capital of humans and the capital of the largest city, the Empire.

I plan to go in there and get some money.

If you do anything after that, you’ll find what you want to do.

I went straight to the capital.

@ @ @

It’s been a long time since I heard Sertana, the capital of the empire.

Maybe after a year? I hadn’t come here other than to attend a party hosted by the Empire before.

I even remembered returning to the front line after coming for a day trip.

If you think about it, the warrior party and the capital were really far apart.

But that would be natural.

In the first place, Sertana was said to be the safest on this continent.

It was a great waste of time for the strongest military force of mankind, the warrior party, to be killed in such a place.

Because the warrior party had to fight on the front line.

‘It’s still here.’

From that point of view, it might be a little nice to visit the Empire in such a leisurely way.

As expected, it was the safest place in the empire, crowded with people wherever I went, and I could smell people living there.

I think it’s much better than dying in a barren environment.

So I liked this city quite a bit.

‘If you come here, you should try one of our specialties, right?’

Besides, there was one more reason why I like it so much.

It was because there was one very delicious food that was only sold here.

‘Hey… Butter-grilled Squid from Sertana.’

As soon as I arrived in Empire, I lined up at the store, and finally I was able to get my hands on it.

The squid caught in the waters near Sertana has a uniquely special savory taste.

Squid stuffed with butter, this specialty is so famous that even if there are people who haven’t tried it, few people have tried it at least once.

‘It’s so… Delicious.’

I took a bite of squid after a long time.

Sweet buttery scent that spreads in your mouth.

I always thought of it when I was traveling, but it wasn’t too bad to try it like this.

So I was satisfied after eating 20 butter-grilled squid.

I wanted to eat more, but I didn’t go in.

‘Should I go get some money now?’

I got up from my seat.

Since we have completed the first thing we need to do after coming to the Empire, we should start soon.

My biggest purpose for coming to the Empire in the first place was to find the money I entrusted to you.

‘Because I saved hard…’

To be honest, the money I earned while doing the warrior party was by no means small.

A party of warriors fighting hard for the country at the forefront, of course it was an empire that gave huge amounts of money to such a party of warriors.

When I received that kind of money, I put it all in the bank.

Because you never know.

I can’t say that there is nothing more important than money in the world, but it is true that money is important nonetheless.

In times of need, money is the most supportive thing.

I used to save money pretty hard.

Probably more than 10 billion berries were in the bank.

Sufficient money to play and eat for the rest of your life.

‘If you think about it, I must have saved money really hard.’

Actually, this money was to be used when I got married to Raina.

Of course, like Raina and I, there must be a lot of money, but just in case you didn’t know, it’s money that I worked hard to save.

If you think about it, it seems that there is nothing to write about now.

‘Well, I have nothing to write anymore. I’ll have to indulge in some extravagance.’

So, I’m going to spend this money from now on.

I don’t really want to buy anything, but I should buy everything I need first, right?

I wasn’t the type to be greedy for money.

I was thinking of buying all the items I had been putting up with and wanted to buy.

In order to do that, you must first get the money, right?

“What did you come here for?”

“Bank president, I want to talk to Markr.”

I went straight into the bank.

The receptionist looking at me and nodding. I showed her the documents that would prove her identity.

It wasn’t something to discuss with the receptionist after all.

I called the head of this bank.

“…!? Huh… Alan from the warrior party…!?”

The receptionist was surprised to see the document I saw.

“Uh…! Alan? What did you come here for? You should have told me beforehand.”

“Mr. Bank. It’s been a while.”

It’s been a long time since I’ve seen Mark.

This middle-aged man with a beard and a belly was Mark, the president of the empire’s bank, and he was the man to whom I entrusted all the money I earned.

He bent over at me and gave me a nice smile.

“Oh… It’s been a while. Manager. I’m here to pick up the money I entrusted you with.”

“Oh, I see. Mr. Alan. Then how long have you been looking for me?”

“Hmm… Give me everything for now. I don’t have anything else to entrust you with.”

I said to Mark with a smile.

It was time to get back the money I entrusted to you.

“… Hmmm… You mean give Alan all the money he can find?”

“Yes, it is.

“Okay. Then I’ll check and bring the money.”

Marc nodded his head in agreement and went straight into the bank.

After a while, Marc came out with an envelope.

“Here it is…”

Marc hands me an envelope.

I received an envelope from Markr and opened it.

“…?”

And the look on my face when I opened the envelope was so embarrassing.

What the hell is this doing?

Are you playing a prank on me…?

“What are you trying to do now?”

I don’t know which one it was, but it was clearly a very unpleasant prank.

I couldn’t help but glared at Markr.

“Are you kidding me?”

Where does the money over 10 billion berries go and why are there only 1000 berries?

I’m pretty upset right now.
