Chapter 182 – The Hero Was Disappointed
“Damn it, I can’t help it.”
After muttering to myself like that, I took out my sword and started cutting through the bars.
[Fuck me too!]
I could hear Ebony yelling at my head, but I couldn’t afford to.
The iron spear, which seemed to be made of cast iron, was ground to the ground with an ebony blade, and only then did the old man slowly turn his head to look at my face his.
“I will go out and ask about the identity of the old man.”
I said that to the old man who was looking at me, then turned my gaze to Karen.
Karen nodded her head at my gaze, took Marianne’s hand her, and headed towards the unknown old man.
“Lucille, you go there too.”
I said that to Lucille, and Lucille looked at me with a blank expression before she grabbed my wrist.
“Yo, what about the hero?”
“Oh, I won’t die anyway.”
I replied to Lucille, but she shook her head and held her hand tightly to mine, refusing to let go.
That expression looked so earnest that I couldn’t help but laugh.
But it only seemed that way to my eyes, and it didn’t seem like Lucille’s behavior looked very good to my party.
“Who… I know you are quiet because you don’t know how to worry.”
“I know. It’s me, Karen, who is really struggling.”
I heard her disgruntled Marian voice of her, and Karen looked her right in the eye and started showing off her own balls.
Of course, it wasn’t that Marian or Karen didn’t sit still because they thought less of me than Lucille.
It’s just that they’ve been with me for a long time compared to Lucille, and they know a little more about my immortal body.
“Lucille, it’s okay, go to Karen.”
As if Marian’s voice had worked, Lucille cautiously approached Karen, watching her.
And just as Karen was using her magic her, a huge stream of water poured in at just the right time.

“Broken.”
Having come to my senses, I burped and looked around.
Of course, the vampires who settled in the canal were swept out of the canal by the water, and were scattered on the floor like corpses here and there.
Still, it seems that people are busy running around and rescuing those who have fallen to the floor, so it seems that they are not all behind as expected.
With a more comfortable face, I started to check the space where I was lying.
“Hero?”
The first thing that caught my eye was Genoa.
Genoa, who was waiting not far from her, found me sitting and came over to me a month later, and I saw her worried face her and smiled at her.
“Oh, Genoa. Thanks to her, she was a good swimmer.”
“No, why did you do something so reckless?”
“You know. Not dying And it looks like she’s not even dead this time.”
I told Genoa her joke, and she replied, looking at me with her pale eyes.
“Even if you don’t die, you still feel the pain. Please save yourself.”
I watched Genoa say things I would never have thought of in her previous life, and she just let out a laugh.
I thought it was funny for her to say such a thing after driving me to her predicament by saying that she was n’t going to die anyway, but that did n’t mean I did n’t hate her.
As I was having such a meaningless conversation with Genoa, the other party members began to gather around me one by one.
The only one missing was Marian, who seemed busy tending to the wounded.
“That… I… Hey. Sorry.”
And I could see Camara apologizing to me.
She never expected that she would get her apology from the dragon, but Kamara had a rather depressed expression on her face that didn’t match her usual her.
“Did I miss it?”
“That, that…”
I asked Camara, and she started making excuses in a panicked voice.
However, it was within my expectations that Kamara would not be able to catch Velikiya anyway.
Even though she is said to be the strongest race of dragons, she has a fatal weakness to her.
Even a little bit of experience with Camara made it easy to notice that she was simply ignorant, and her opponent her was no other, but the vampire queen who had existed since ancient times.
It is said that steaming up Camara, with her head falling off a little, is nothing.
“I obviously followed her without losing sight of her, but when I caught her and looked at it, did she say it was a fake?”
I let out a deep sigh as I watched Camara make excuses for me with an unfair expression.
That is, it was said that each dragon chased after them without being able to distinguish the illusion of Velikiya.
“It’s as if your eyes are wandering after a ball thrown by a bastard.”
“What, what?”
As I spoke to myself, I saw Camara glaring at me with twin wicks in her eyes.
No matter how much it was, it seemed that his pride was hurt by the word dog.
But I didn’t lose, I looked at her, and soon I could see her her camara’s eyes her were heading to the wrong place as if she were uneasy.
‘I’m glad it seems to have been properly tamed.’
After easily winning a snowball fight with Camara, I tilted my head when I noticed an unexpected person among the people gathered around me.
“Why is inspiration here?”
The old man who laughed empty-handedly at my question was a person who was imprisoned in a cave.
Of course, after I escaped, he said he would ask me about his identity his, but it was a little unexpected that he was standing next to me.
Anyway, I was the one who saved the Karsian kingdom, which was almost completely taken over by Velikiya, and I could feel that the princess, Ena, was quite concerned just by looking at the tent I was lying in.
In addition, even if it was just the people around me, none of them were normal, so it was strange that the old man who had been held captive by the enemy was near that tent.
“Ah, let me explain.”
After hearing that I had just woken up, Princess Ena came running and answered my question.
I casually looked at Ena, and she took a step behind her inspiration of her and started introducing him to me.
“This is the King of Carcian Kingdom, and my father, Maxim III.”
“… King?”
I looked at the old man who was held captive in the canal with a puzzled face.
Come to think of it, it was only then that I noticed that he was wearing quite luxurious clothes, unlike when I saw him in the waterway.
“Thank you. I heard that you are a warrior. Thanks to that, our kingdom was also able to be safe.”
I frowned as I watched the king speak with a friendly smile.
Even though he didn’t do anything wrong to me, it was because I felt strangely unhappy.
“With your bare mouth?”
“Hero, you are the king of Karsian Kingdom. You have to be polite though…”
In response to my sudden words, Princess Ena said so.
Seeing her rescuing her her king after reviving her ruined kingdom, I seemed to know a little bit where my displeasure was coming from.
I, my party, and all the citizens of Carcian went through all the hardships, but the judges seemed to be twisted when I thought of the king who would suck honey hard from now on.
He didn’t do anything particularly wrong, but as I grew up in a rural village, I couldn’t help but have animosity towards people like kings and nobles.
“Hey, be quiet. After all, aren’t you also a friend of Dragon-sama?”
The King shouted at Ena with a deliberately stern face, and at those words, the Princess hurriedly lowered her head.
The King’s gaze naturally moved from me to Camara.
“Thank you, Dragon-sama, for not abandoning our kingdom.”
I felt a bitter taste in my mouth as I watched the king bowing his head to Camara.
What did Camara do?
At most, I was chasing after the vampire bitch, but I missed it like an idiot and trudged back.
However, as the king praised her, Camara’s shoulders her, which were depressed, were gradually gaining strength in real time.
Considering the deformed power structure of the Karsian kingdom, it occurred to me that maybe it was not the king who sucked honey the most, but Camara.
“Hot, no big deal.”
“No. You have done a great job. Of course, more wealth this year…”
“Wow!”
I ended up spitting on the floor as I watched the King bow down to Camara.
I could see the King, Camara, Ena and everyone in my party looking at me with surprised expressions.
“I saved the kingdom, so why pay tribute to Camara?”
“… Yes?”
“Punishment and reward must be fair, but I am cold food for saving the king and expelling Velikiya, and offering money to an idiot who missed all enemies? It’s ridiculous.”
When I said that, the king looked at Camara with a puzzled expression.
However, Kamara, who was restoring her self-esteem at the king’s praise her and leaning heavily on her shoulders her, only glared at me with her blushing face.
