The Former Hero Began To Be Re-Evaluated - The Former Hero Began To Be Re-Evaluated chapter 28

28 – The Third Hero (11)

The criteria for determining S-class requests in a guild are very simple.

Requests are graded based on how much compensation there is.

In that sense, the request made by the warrior party to find warrior Lee Han-soo was quite unconventional.

They said they would spend almost all of the warrior party’s remaining money to find Lee Han-su.

The reason they did that was very simple.

It was because I wanted to find Lee Han-soo quickly.

Guilds in every city will send in S-class requests at once, and tens of thousands of adventurers will see these requests at least once.

I thought I would be able to find Lee Han-soo in an instant.

You could say that I found it in less than a few hours at best.

“Ugh… Even if I wait, it doesn’t come.”

“Still no news?”

“Yes… Unfortunately.”

But, that didn’t happen.

Even though some time had passed since they applied for the S-class request, there was no word anywhere that they had found Lee Han-soo.

I was just waiting for news in anxious anticipation.

Where on earth is Lee Han-soo?

The party members continued to be unable to hide their frustrated feelings.

“Let’s just give up. We won’t find it anyway.”

In such frustration, Ayla stood up from her seat as if she couldn’t bear it any longer and said,

She said that there was no point in looking for Lee Han-su and that we should just give up.

From the beginning, Aila was opposed to finding Hansu Lee.

I was following Luna’s words because there was no other way at the moment, but I still didn’t like it.

Nevertheless, I followed Luna’s words and waited for Lee Han-su, but even after waiting, I could not find Lee Han-su.

I knew when I would find Lee Han-su, but I couldn’t wait here forever.

“…”

The rest of the party also agreed with Aila.

Now they were in an unprecedented crisis of being expelled from the warrior party.

In such a situation, I couldn’t waste time hoping for uncertain hopes.

Now was the time to move quickly, even if it was only for a minute.

“Ugh… Then what should we do?”

Luna was not unaware of the feelings of the party members.

He thought that Lee Han-soo was the hope, and he persuaded the party members who did not believe it and even submitted a request to the guild, but it was of no use if he could not actually find Lee Han-soo.

Even though she placed an S-class request, if Lee Han-soo does not appear, there will be no other way.

So what should we do from now on?

She asked Eila if there was any suitable solution.

“For now… Let’s go back to the empire.”

Of course, Eila did not have the solution she deserved.

Now that they were cut from the warrior party, what they could do was very limited.

And the situation was very bad.

Still, the best way in this situation was to go to the empire.

“Let’s wait there and have a conversation.”

Let’s go back to the Empire and wait for Alex.

Assuming Alex returns, he won’t rebel right away or anything like that.

After at least some preparation period, they will rebel or do something else.

During that time, whether talking or negotiating with Alex, Aila did her best to reach an agreement.

“Aila… But, are you okay? I want you to baptize me?”

“… I can’t do that. I have to persuade him in another way.”

Of course, Alex may ask for the baptism of a saint again.

Even if such a situation came up, Aila had no intention of giving up on her baptism as a saint.

Because this was an issue that was also related to her own beliefs.

But she still has plenty of other things to give.

I don’t know what Alex wants, but I’ll try my best to persuade him.

I was planning on giving it a try.

I hope things go well.

“What if… It doesn’t work?”

However, we also had to consider cases where things did not work out.

The elf, Carnege, still looked anxious and asked Eila.

When we were unable to reach an agreement and were abandoned by Alex.

She asked what happens when they fail to return to the warrior party and achieve what they want…

“We must stick to the side of the empire.”

There was nothing much to do at that time.

Ayla spoke her words carefully.

The party members each remained silent at Aila’s words.

Aila’s words were, to put it simply, like she was going to war.

“For now, let’s go back to the empire.”

Well… There was no need to think about difficult problems in advance.

The party members stood up from their seats.

For now, they were planning to return to the empire.

‘Is this really the devil?’

The process of entering the Demon King’s Castle and facing the Demon King was not the feeling he expected.

Because of this, I naturally relaxed in this situation, but I couldn’t.

No matter how absurd he showed himself, his opponent was the devil.

It was never something to be taken lightly.

‘I don’t know what it is, but he looks quite angry.’

Furthermore, the Demon King’s expression when he saw him was not very good.

I felt like I was really angry when I saw Alex.

I didn’t necessarily express it with my facial expression, but the energy I felt was very clear.

Why am I already angry?

I don’t know why, but I was certain that I could never let down my guard.

Alex adjusted the holy sword on his waist and prepared for battle.

From noble mtl dot com

“Are you a warrior?”

The Demon King also looked at Alex like that, sighed for a moment, and stood up.

And as he walked forward and prepared for battle, he asked Alex as if he were dumbfounded.

“That’s right.”

“Ha. What on earth is the empire thinking…?”

The Demon King tried hard to hide his feelings, but he could not hide them.

I felt a variety of emotions running through me, including disappointment and subsequent anger.

She had her own expectations.

I thought that a warrior named Herald would come to visit me, that the next warrior would come, and that warrior would definitely be Lee Han-su.

But, the hero who came before my eyes was not Lee Han-su.

Lee Han-soo, let alone Lee Han-soo, was a warrior of a much lower level than Herald.

This attitude of the devil came from the same reason.

“Why are you sighing?”

Of course, Alex did not understand at all why the Demon King took such an attitude.

However, it was clear that the Demon King was ignoring him.

“Isn’t it obvious? Each hero that comes to visit is getting weaker and weaker…”

“That’s quite an insult to one’s pride.”

The Demon King neither saw himself as a warrior nor as a rival.

He took on an attitude as if he was watching a passing ant.

I thought that the Demon King could be arrogant, but that attitude was enough to bring out the fighting spirit in him.

Still, he is a warrior himself, and if you don’t treat him like one, you will have no choice but to make him do it.

“But, I will be different from the two warriors.”

Alex pulled out the sword at her waist.

As Alex lifts it, the sword begins to emit a brilliant light.

Because I own this holy sword, which is said to have been created by a fairy in the past to slay the Demon King.

He told the Demon King never to look down on him.

“Hoo… It’s a holy sword.”

When he saw the holy sword, the Demon King’s eyes changed.

When the Demon King saw the sword he had, he had no choice but to admit it.

The sword that Alex was holding now was definitely a real holy sword.

That sword might easily pierce your own skin, which even steel cannot pierce.

He also had a slightly expectant look in his eyes.

“Tsk… That’s insignificant… It really is a pearl necklace on a pig’s neck…”

However, soon he was the devil again with a disappointed expression on his face.

When he saw the holy sword, he got hot for a moment, but had no choice but to cool down quickly.

The reason was that no matter how good the weapon was, the opponent wielding the sword was very poor.

Why is such a great sword in the hands of such a man?

On the contrary, it was even more disappointing.

“You’re so arrogant. I’ll see how long you can make that expression.”

Of course, Alex had no ability to understand the Demon King’s regret.

Alex’s hand tightened his grip on the sword as he saw the Demon King’s attitude of still ignoring him even after seeing the holy sword.

“Here we go!!! Take it, Demon King.”

And then he rushed at her.

To pierce the devil’s neck.

“Huh…? Huh…?”

Of course, the result was obvious to everyone except Alex.

You hold the holy sword with your bare hands?

The Demon King simply held the holy sword in his hand.

And without any scratches…

Let’s get out of the way first…

In an incomprehensible situation, Alex tried to step back.

However, he did not fall out.

What… What is it? What power…

The sword did not budge due to the devil’s grip.

Up until this point, things were unimaginable to him, but this was not the end.

Kwasik.

Kwazijic!!!

Immediately, the sound of metal breaking was heard.

“What… What is it? The holy sword…?”

Is it broken?

Soon, the part of the blade held by the Demon King began to crack.

Soon the holy sword shattered into pieces.

Looking at the holy sword that had already lost its shape, Alex made a vain expression.

“It’s just the sorrow of a holy sword that met the wrong owner.”

Compared to Alex, the Demon King seemed relaxed.

Tap, step, step.

I started walking towards him slowly.

Alex had an intuition when he saw that.

Now the devil is thinking of destroying himself.

“Huh… Hah…”

I was overcome with fear at that sight.

Only now did he feel that something was wrong.

That is a monster.

He was not an enemy he could deal with.

We must run away from here immediately.

You have to run quickly.

Alex’s judgment was quick.

He started screaming and running away without looking back.

“Kaaak…!”

But was it because I ran too hastily?

He fell.

But I still have to stand up and run again.

He put his hands on his hands and tried to stand up again.

There was no time to delay.

I have to move my legs again… But…

Something was strange.

I tried to get up, but I couldn’t get up.

“You don’t even have the basics to be a warrior.”

The Demon King was in front of Alex before he knew it.

And she placed something in front of Alex’s eyes.

It was placed by the hand of the Demon King soaked in bright red blood.

“Kwaaah!!!!”

It was his own two legs.
