Chapter 242 – The Second Hero.(9)
The carriage arrived at the ecliptic, and I got off the carriage.
Quite a lot of things had happened so far, so the imperial capital had undergone extensive construction and reform, but looking at the huge walls and the spirited soldiers, it seems that they were well prepared.
“Then let’s go. First, let’s get some preserved food, and then get some new armor for me to use.”
[Are you finally getting new armor?]
[How about getting the warrior’s armor?]
Clau Solas, now fully recovered, recommended me the Hero’s Armor.
Certainly, the only armor that is at a level similar to that of the demon lord is the warrior’s armor, which I covet, but unfortunately I can’t use it.
That’s because I don’t have the divine power like a warrior.
And since we’re going to Daesilim, I’m thinking of getting the armor with mithril armor.
Mithril is a hard yet light metal, so it is perfect for use in large forests like the Great Forest.
“Then, should we go to the imperial blacksmith first?”
There are only a handful of artisans who can change Mithril, and among them, a quality item that I can use can only be made at the Imperial Blacksmith.
That’s why, on the way to the imperial forge, I saw a man who appeared to be an aristocrat running from afar.
The man gasped for breath and ran up to me, then leaned down on me and said:
“General Artel! Welcome! Your Majesty is waiting for you.”
“Huh? I didn’t tell you that I was coming here, did I?”
“Yes? I’m sure Princess Asuka heard that General Artel knew about the imperial family and came running.”
“Ah! I see. I made it clear. I must have been mistaken.”
When Asuka’s name was mentioned, I said I was mistaken and laughed.
I don’t know why they sold my name, but if it’s Asuka, there must be a reason.
“Keuheum, then let’s go to the palace together with Asuna.”
“Yes I will wait!”
At my words, the man got up and ran to another place.
Looking back, it seems that he was not a nobleman, but just a knight running errands.
“Whoa. This is a bit weird, don’t you know anything?”
Suddenly, Asuka sold my name, and she called me His Majesty the Emperor.
There were too many strange things to simply say it was because of the hero.
But Belly shook his head, saying he didn’t know at my question.
It seems that you have to go to the palace to get information.
“I and Asuna should go first. You guys go to the Shine family’s villa.”
“Whoa, it’s not even been a few days since the King Hargedon incident ended…”
First, the children were sent to the villa, and then Asuna and I moved to the imperial palace.
Just in case, I looked all over the area and listened to the stories of the people, but there didn’t seem to be any dangerous incidents or rumors that called me.
Arriving at the imperial palace with only curiosity, I directly asked the nobles who welcomed me.
“Ohh… You’re here! We’ve all been waiting…!”
“Where is your Majesty the Emperor?”
The aristocrats hardened their faces when I cut myself off and talked about the main topic, but when I told them to speak quickly because I was busy, they freaked out and said that they were waiting for me in the office and guided the way.
His Majesty the Emperor sat solemnly in his chair.
If someone else sees it, it looks like a large group of people who maintain their composure in their own way even when the storehouse of the main house was almost robbed… It seems to me
While trembling slightly, tendons stood out on his forehead.
Well, I’m just angry because I tried to rob an heirloom that has been passed down from generation to generation.
Rather, if you are not angry, you are not human.
“Huh… Shine Artel. The reason I called you… Do you understand?”
“Search and deal with the hero, or drag him in and execute his sentence. Which one?”
“The goal is to capture them alive as much as possible, but if it is unavoidable, summary execution is also permitted.”
“Okay. Then we’ll prepare in advance.”
“If it’s ready, don’t worry. I’ve got something in advance.”
As His Majesty the Emperor said and beckoned, the servants rushed in and brought something.
It was an unusual-looking armor in black.
“That armor is Paehwang’s armor. It was used by Paehwang, one of the previous emperors.”
“Huh…”
The servant handing over the armor of the emperor, when I tried on the armor, it fit perfectly.
The energy felt there was comparable to that of the Demon King’s armor.
[It’s a personal connection! I’m trying to get some good armor, so I got it right away!]
[No, this is not a personal connection, but a personal connection. Since the armor was broken for the empire, this is natural.]
Darkness and Claus Solas chattered as if they liked the new armor.
After examining the armor, I bowed my head in gratitude to His Majesty the Emperor.
“Thank you for giving me such good armor.”
“Heh, this much is no big deal. Your armor was destroyed for our empire, so this kind of reward is natural.”
My Majesty the Emperor and I burst into laughter at the same time.
And, I laughed bitterly.
Ego… I must have bought a new armor too, relax, hero.
If caught, you are subject to summary execution.
——————————
“Welcome. I’ve been waiting for you.”
The hero was captivated by the golden beauty that appeared in front of her.
Bountiful breasts and hips that are about to explode.
The silky hair that seemed to be made of gold and the green eyes looking at me were so beautiful.
To think such a beauty shyly greets me… Thinking that it was good that she came here, the warrior inadvertently smiled with a reddish face.
The sweetness felt by the warrior was even greater because he had to struggle with all kinds of monsters and insects while passing through the woods, being chased by knights and starving.
But the warrior is a man.
That’s why I tried to pretend to be cool right away.
“Keuheum… Nice to meet you. As you all know, I am a warrior who will save the world. Please take good care of me.”
Nice greetings
With this, the elf in front of me will have a crush on me.
The hero drank kimchi soup in his mind.
Meanwhile, Saint Artina shook her head while looking at the warrior.
As a saint, she made it her mission to assist her warriors, but she did not even expect that she would try to steal the imperial family’s heirloom.
Respect and respect the imperial family.
Sometimes they don’t like it, but basically, respect and respect for the imperial family were deeply planted.
This was natural for a saintess who was born in the empire, lived in the empire, and grew up listening to the stories of the great imperial family in the empire.
But the warrior was different.
She thought only she was the best, so she didn’t know her extent, and she ended up having an accident and becoming a fugitive.
He himself would be treated as being caught up in this, but the hero himself was a member of the Helios Church who had stayed in the Helios Church.
I couldn’t even imagine how many people would suffer from this situation.
In this way, the saintess gradually developed her antipathy toward her hero.
On the other hand, the elf whose name was not known to her, smiled comfortably and formally introduced herself.
“Hello. My name is Aper von Azerti. I am the Queen of the Elves and the owner of this forest.”
Bomb, bomb exploded.
Upon the self-introduction of the elven queen, her hero instantly had greed in her eyes.
Then, she quietly approached her queen.
Haha! I never thought the Elf Queen would welcome me! This is a pleasure!”
The hero approached the elven queen, the woman of destiny, in a friendly way.
Not knowing that the Elf Queen’s face was frowning.
“Whoop, whoop whoop.”
The queen smiled oddly, and she slipped away from the hand of her champion approaching her.
And she turned around with a cold face.
The queen admired her ability to make quick adjustments, but Artina felt it.
That it was twisted from her first meeting.
And as Artina felt, the Queen’s affinity for her hero was severely compromised.
Her face was expressionless, but full of deep anger and shame.
‘You’re mocking me right now… !’
She herself is a queen, and she is an elf, the guardian of the forest.
She basically had high pride, and hated humans who recklessly destroyed nature.
She didn’t hate all races, though.
After all, all races consume nature as they live.
However, the beast race coexisted with nature as much as possible, and the dwarves knew how to protect and revive nature, and actually did it.
But humans didn’t.
Only develop, develop, develop again!
Nature has been damaged.
She, of course, doesn’t particularly hate or hate humans like that, but as a queen, she pretended to harbor hatred and anger on the surface, and she didn’t hate the hero as a human being.
She’s just not clean, and she’s just offended by a warrior who reveals her desires to her.
At least the saintess had her clean power and soul, so I came to see her specially, but the warrior was not clean.
‘Tsk, you’re in favor of bringing in this guy. The elders are too old.’
As her queen, the elders who pushed for this task evaluated the queen who wanted to establish a strong ruler of her own like humans.
If it was just a saint, I would rather use her as a hostage for negotiations with humans, but I thought that hero wouldn’t be of much value just for what she looks like and what she says.
It was a wonderful and terrifying insight.
“Hey! We have to go further here!”
“…Will arrive soon.”
Also, the arrogance of speaking inappropriately to herself, her queen, made the queen further reduce her evaluation of her warrior.
She had an elders meeting when she first went to visit the warriors.
At the meeting of all the elders, led by the queen, the elders wanted to marry the hero, give birth to the next heir, and become proud of humans.
She thought of marrying a human man for recognition if she had to, and since she was a queen, she didn’t refuse.
But now, the Queen has completely changed that plan.
Not knowing this, he glared coldly at the exciting hero.
