I Ended My Engagement With My Childhood Friend, the Hero - I Ended My Engagement With My Childhood Friend, the Hero chapter 36

36 – Childhood Friend Hero’s Journey (9) – Another Challenge

To be honest, I couldn’t understand what Luna was saying at all.

I didn’t understand that Raina had just stopped by the capital.

In addition, I couldn’t understand why Raina, who was full of her great colleagues other than Luna, was trying to recruit her Luna.

Originally, it was a party of warriors who were supposed to subdue the demon lord.

“Luna, is that true? A hero came looking for you.”

“Yes…”

So I had to confirm this with Luna.

“And she told you to recruit her?”

“Right…”

Somehow, I wondered if Luna had misunderstood something.

“What does that hero look like…?”

“Blonde… A bit cute… Looks like Liden…”

I wondered if I might have met someone who pretended to be a hero.

I kept doubting.

“Really… I’m sure it’s Rina…”

However, it seemed certain that Raina had come looking for Luna.

There was no reason for Luna to lie to me.

Luna’s words were quite credible, as Luna’s appearance was very similar to the Raina I knew.

In fact, when Raina came here to the capital, she seemed to have briefly met Luna.

‘Then why?’

But no matter how much I thought about it, I couldn’t find a good reason.

I thought about the reasons why the warrior party would come to Luna, but as expected, such a reason did not exist.

If you are a wizard, Elina already exists in the warrior party, and she has many problems.

She is very good enough to overcome that problem.

At this point, she is a great wizard that cannot be compared to young Luna.

If there is such a thing as Elina, if it’s a reason to recruit Luna…

It didn’t come to mind. As long as Elina existed, Luna was unnecessary to the warrior party.

Then why did Raina come to the capital?

I thought about why I had to recruit Luna in my own way.

‘What if… Without Elina?’

I was able to come up with a pretty creepy idea.

It’s not that I didn’t subdue the demon lord, it’s that I couldn’t.

Assuming that all of her colleagues died in the process.

And the assumption that he tried to recruit Luna because of that.

In an instant, chills ran down her spine.

If that happened… It must have been a really crazy situation.

If the assumptions I made are true… Now, the situation could get a little serious.

It’s just a scenario where the human race will perish if something goes wrong.

In the first place, there is currently no party member that is better than them.

Even if such a party member is formed, it will take at least several years.

In this situation, there is no way to block the demon king’s attack.

If that happens, all my efforts will be in vain.

The future without dreams or hopes is fixed.

“Ah… I guess not.”

I hurriedly shook my head.

Of course, this was just my assumption.

Common sense tells us that the chances of that happening are very low.

No matter how far behind Rina was… Unless something happened, she wouldn’t have done that.

“I won’t…”

So I’m thinking no…

I decided to put my mind at ease as much as possible and trust my colleagues.

“…”

But, as expected, the worries don’t go away.

So, in this situation, I had to satisfy my curiosity.

“Hmm… Really, where the hell are you and what are you doing?”

I plan to find out a little bit about what happened to Raina and the warrior party.

@ @ @

After stopping by the Empire, the party of warriors prepared various things to prepare.

Raina met her to recruit her Luna.

Mark stopped by the weapon shop and armor shop to buy equipment.

Mer went around the city to buy supplies for the warrior party.

After a while, the party of warriors gathered again.

And after making all preparations, they set off for the Devil Castle.

Rabbing.

Lina pulls the wagon like that and heads for the Demon Castle again.

Raina’s expression was spleen.

From noble mtl dot com

Because she was on her way to the Demon Castle for the second time.

“This time…”

There is a precedent in which Raina had previously challenged the Demon King and failed.

For her, this opportunity was an irreversible situation.

Because if she fails again, the hero’s name will be properly tarnished.

This time, she was determined to defeat the Demon King.

This time, she will properly defeat the demon lord and prove that she is the strongest warrior.

She intended to avenge the demon king for this humiliation.

“I did well… I fought properly against the demon lord.”

And the preparation for him was perfect.

In the first place, Raina did not think that the cause of her warrior party’s failure was her own fault.

Looking back at the time when Raina fought the demon king, it is clear that she fought with all her might,

She fought the Demon King on a 1:1 equal basis.

She was never pushed back by the Demon King, befitting herself as the strongest warrior.

But… The cause of the failure to subdue the Demon King.

It was so simple.

“The only thing I failed last time was that I didn’t have a baby boy…”

It was because all the party members were so under-leveled.

Looking back on the past, Elina, who was called a wizard, was killed without being able to cope with the demon king’s magic.

When Raina was caught off guard for a moment and was trapped in the Demon Lord’s Black Sphere, Andros died within a few minutes.

Miner was also on the verge of dying, and Ner Ah had used up all her holy power to save Miner.

Excluding Raina, the party members, numbering 4, were unable to pull out even the power of the Demon King and collapsed.

To be honest, when I think about it now, they were almost no different from a burden.

That part was the cause of Raina’s failure.

“It wouldn’t have turned out this way if there was only one human child.”

She wouldn’t have made such a humiliating retreat if she had had just one decent party member. She

Even if she had only one strong party member to help her, she would surely have subdued the demon lord herself.

Because of that, I regretted it so much from her position. From the beginning, she wasn’t going to invade the castle with such bad party members… She said.

But she shook her head.

“What would I do if I thought about it now?”

She still felt that she was fortunate that she realized it now.

Because she is an excellent party member this time, unlike the previous party members she chose.

If she works a little against the demon lord… She will surely be able to defeat the demon lord herself.

Because I am the strongest hero…!

Raina is by no means a weak warrior.

She Rather, she was the hero of the past She was a warrior stronger than anyone else.

‘Well… If I use a hero like that, the rebellion will succeed.’

And another person who knew that, former General Marc, was going to use Lina.

‘Except for being stupid… He’s a really strong man.’

Although Mark did not know Laina for a long time, he was once a general of the Empire.

He had quite a knack for distinguishing people.

If he evaluates Laina…

Raina was really strong.

The power itself felt is different from other humans.

He couldn’t help but feel that the rumor that he was the strongest warrior was absolutely not false.

It’s a mark that I definitely acknowledge that part, but…

On the contrary, Raina was very emotional and behaved as if she was being chased by something.

Because of that, Marc saw Raina and thought that she was really easy to use.

After defeating the demon king, she intended to use it.

‘I’m going to trick you in moderation… To help with the rebellion of the empire.’

If Raina defeated the Demon King, it was only natural that she would be admired as a hero who saved the country.

If she used that kind of Raina, it wasn’t a dreamy situation for her to stage a coup and succeed.

To become the emperor this time…! I was thinking of using Laina for the rebellion.

‘I’ve got a plan… I just need to defeat the demon king.’

Marc has already done a lot of thinking.

About how to roast and boil the empire using a gullible opponent called Rina.

If only the demon lord is defeated, this plan will be put into action immediately.

“hehehehe.”

Mark couldn’t stop laughing.

He thinks he will become emperor and ascend the throne…

A smile continued to form on his lips.

“hehehe…”

And Mark wasn’t the only one laughing.

The party thief next to him, Mer.

She, too, had been laughing nonchalantly since earlier.

‘I made a lot of money…!’

Mer had received money from Raina.

She asked Raina for money to buy things for the hero’s party.

Raina went to her bank and put her own name on it and told her to write to her heart’s content.

As a warrior, she had a lot of money.

Her amount in her bank was over 100 million.

She wasn’t a mer to stand still and she saw that money.

Like a cat who can’t ignore the fish in front of her eyes… Mer had already stolen all the 100 million won.

And that wasn’t all.

‘To meet money well and earn 400 million won…!’

Mer gave her liana’s name and even took out a loan from her bank.

The amount she borrowed was a whopping 300 million …!

It was Mer who carried all of that money in a short time.

Because stealing everything that can be stolen is her creed…!

And for her, Raina was an easy opponent… No, her wallet itself.

‘If the subjugation succeeds, I should get a loan of up to 1 billion…!’

And it doesn’t end here.

If even the demon lord is to be subdued…!

I might be able to extort more money…!

Mer couldn’t help but smile all the time.

So everyone has their own purpose.

“It’s time to arrive… Be nervous from now on…!”

The time for Raina’s re-challenge to the Demon King has arrived.
