The Fake Hero Is Too Strong

chapter 26



I came to stop this war – 4

The office of the branch manager of the Northeast Al-Qahad branch.

Offense, who had turned into a date, was there.

This is to simply handle the work on behalf of Date, who has already become an immortal guest.

Of course, he is not here for the smooth takeover of the Al-Hakkad organization.

It was because it would be difficult if the absence of Date became known during the week he was supposed to be in this estate.

Having dealt with the given tasks, he slowly got up to go to Ariena.

That was then.

Weeing.

A bluish light emanated from his arms.

‘Is it Mr. Kayle?’

As I pulled out the communication bead, I heard a familiar voice.

– Offense.

“Mr Kayle. What’s going on?”

– The report I heard this morning is so interesting that I have to be patient. Did you say you were going to see Maid? What kind of guy were you?

Offense scratched his head.

“He was a man enough to recognize me at once.”

-……

“I met him here as the head of the al-Qahad branch. But he told me to make a bet. He asked me to delay the war because he would find Ariena within a week.

– What do you mean I noticed you?

“I didn’t say it directly. However, he insisted on calling me ‘date’ and stared at me… You know. How much information I get from people’s facial expressions.”

Cald had no doubts about that.

Ironically, he didn’t realize his most important secret, namely, that he was deceiving everyone on the continent.

– He’s a dangerous man.

“I think so too. What should I do?”

-I’m not a fan of war, either, but I don’t want to let anyone who gets in my way grows up.

“At least we can’t let Maid find Ariena.”

-Well.

“I will kill you as soon as I finish communicating. The woman.”

Kyle was satisfied.

Unlike his other two colleagues, Offense was a talented person who understood these ‘dark’ conversations well.

That’s why he sent an offense in this case as well.

-Please. Just check until the war breaks out and come back.

“yes? Since you sent me all the way here, wouldn’t it be better to kill Maid as well?”

– Okay. That’s reasonable… but because he also has the Witch of Cruelty and the Knights Templar Vice Commander. In particular, Xenia, who is the agent of God, is caught.

“Certainly, their names are heavy. But under the premise of assassination, I am confident.”

– I don’t doubt that. What interests me is the story behind the assassination.

Offense knew what he meant.

“It sounds like there might be some backtracking.”

-okay. If it’s Dame who cares about his daughter as much as his life, I’ll focus all my energy on that right now and find the blemish.

Offense thought that there was no way he would be caught doing that.

But, as I had felt for a long time, Kayle was a very cautious man.

– Besides, I’m slowly starting to need you. Now we also need to move. Stayed too long in the capital.

“All right.”

– Thank you as always.

drop.

Communication is cut off.

Offense grinned and put the marble in.

‘Then I’ll kill you right away.’

I feel strange about the fate of a woman named Ariena, but there is no law that says that you cannot die just because you are ugly.

That was then.

smart.

Conversation was heard outside with the sound of knocking.

“What are you even knocking? Just smash it in.”

“Your violence comes out all the time.”

The voices of Maid and Neryl.

Offense hardened his complexion, but soon opened the door pretending to be calm.

“What’s going on? I don’t remember making an appointment.”

“hello.”

“Goodbye until I saw you. I’m sorry but I’m busy. give me back.”

Naturally, the two of them did not move.

Offense felt a little nervous and looked behind the two of them.

“How did you get here in the first place? Has anyone stopped you?”

“I put it to sleep.”

“…are you?”

“I think we all know each other, but we don’t need a full name, right?”

Offense has tasted the feeling of spitting out his fur after a long time.

‘It would be difficult to break through these two head-on.’

Then windows.

It’s three stories high, but from here you’ll be able to jump to the roof of the next building at once.

He sighed lightly and turned around.

bum bum.

The distance to the window looks like a thousand miles.

“I don’t know what you mean, but come in. They don’t serve tea.”

Saying so, he put his hand to the window as if to ventilate.

But.

Cheeky!

“Ugh.”

Smoke rose from his hand.

For a brief moment, countless unreadable characters appeared and disappeared.

And I heard the voice of a new person who had not been there before.

“I am a little late. Aren’t you late though?”

“You know the two sentences are completely contradictory, right?”

“Mr. Neril, you’re having a lot of arguing today.”

“You called me Grandma first.”

“That’s why I didn’t call you…”

It was Xenia who appeared.

Perhaps it was a while ago that he burned his hand, one of the holy magic methods, ‘Prison.’

From the looks of it, it was as if the entire building had been turned into a prison, not just the windows.

By this point, Offense admitted that he had already been caught.

said Maid.

“You are a difficult person to talk to. To be honest, to spend time with someone like you, you have to put in a lot of effort.”

“Do you know who I am?”

“okay. Isn’t that Offense Dake with the funny nickname ‘Bright Death’?”

“I think it’s better than the sword of immortality.”

“……”

Maid changed the subject.

“Anyway, I know why you’re making a date face and you don’t even know what your plan is, so let’s get right to the point.”

“huh. Don’t be pretentious. Even though it was surprising that they found out my identity, that alone would have made me aware of my purpose…”

Offense, who was speaking proudly, distorted his face at Maid’s words.

“Didn’t you get an order from Kayle?”

“Didn’t you get an order from Kayle?”

At my words, Offense contorted his face.

The embarrassment of the enemy is my joy.

I’m feeling a little bit better, but the trail strikes a candle.

[You have a childish side just looking at you.]

‘I tend to keep a little innocence.’

[Do you understand this like this?]

I ignored it and shook my head for a moment.

It reminded me of what happened before the return.

To be more precise, the conversation I had with Offense when I was a member of the hero’s party.

That day was the night of a party after completing a fairly large quest safely.

I’ve been drinking and drinking for a long time, and Offense sat down in the empty seat across from me.

“Maid, you are holding up your form alone on a day like today.”

“I was just sitting comfortably. After all, I am a person who becomes a painting even when I am still.”

“I’m going to pretend I didn’t hear it, and I want to ask you something.”

“There is no guarantee you will get an answer, but ask.”

“It’s our warrior.”

Where the offense was chinking, Cald was scratching his head with an innocent face at the praises of the party members.

“You seem to hate Kayle.”

“uh.”

“You can’t even hide it.”

“You seem to be a little far from what you like, right? I have to say that it seems like we are united just out of necessity.”

“……”

“It’s a feeling between a guild leader and a mercenary who receives and entrusts a quest. I know a lot of those faces.”

“After all, you are very sharp.”

gulp.

He said the offense, passing the glass.

“But don’t get me wrong. It certainly started that way in the beginning, but now I really believe in it and follow it.”

“Is that so?”

“Kaild decided to defeat the Demon King and return to the Imperial Castle to grant my wish using the hero’s name.”

“wish? Do you have something like that?”

“Why not?”

Offense’s smile changes to a slightly bitter one.

“Because anyone wants to find their origin.”

“If the origin.”

“I want to know the faces of my parents. What the hell are they doing, throwing me in front of the assassination guild and disappearing?”

“…if it were your ability, you could have done enough research on your own.”

“Why didn’t you do it? But they weren’t very famous, so there was nothing in the information network at all.”

I pondered for a moment before answering.

“You are trying to use the magic circle in the basement of the Imperial Castle.”

“okay. An ultra-wide search magic circle that can even find out the color of underwear worn by people from all continents last night. Beyond Erenica’s masterpiece.”

“Is there a wizard who can run the magic circle?”

“Our witch said she would help out.”

At those words, I thought of Neryl, who was not here.

She said openly that this place was uncomfortable and had already gone up to the second floor.

“How did you convince her? You are not a kind-hearted person who will easily listen to other people’s requests.”

“I was surprised too, but surprisingly, he accepted it at once. As soon as I heard that it was a magic circle created by Beyond.”

“……”

“But all of that is only possible when the timid and strict emperor opens the magic circle. If it is the request of Kayld who defeated the Demon King, it will be possible.”

By then I had already lost interest in this conversation.

Before returning, my only thought was to quickly deal with the demon lord, disband this dreary party, and then enjoy old age.

“Is that so? Good luck.”

“Kale is a good guy. I’m struggling to take a guy like me seriously and grant my wishes.”

“I knew.”

“So, let’s get to know each other a little more. Why didn’t you trust him so much in the first place?”

What did I answer then?

oh maybe.

“Because it looks like you have committed many sins.”

I stopped reminiscing.

Offense had a face that seemed to have ‘I’m nervous’ written on his forehead.

But he said, pretending to be calm.

“Let’s take a look at each one. First of all, how did you know who I was? My skills are far from magic or divine.”

“Then let me tell you it was because of my eyesight.”

“With that answer…”

“Are you discriminating against people? Would Kayle have passed like this?”

At those words, Offense’s pupils dilated greatly.

“You, did you know Kyle from the beginning?”

“Seeing that question, I guess my guess is correct. He’s aware of your skills, but he’ll remain silent about how he did it. A terrible warrior who can’t show all his insides to his teammates.”

Then Neryl and Xenia burst into laughter.

“He did more than that.”

“Come to think of it, why aren’t we asking? If you look closely, there are only one or two questions to ask.”

“It’s such a shameless face that I don’t even want to ask.”

“That’s right.”

Lately, it seems that the two of you agree a little bit more often.

But it’s a strange feeling because it’s limited to when I put it on.

“I came today with two requests.”

“To receive a request from the position of confronting the Witch of Misery and the agent of the gods. If you don’t listen, I won’t be able to let you go.”

“Thank you. First. First of all, don’t report this conversation to Kayle today.”

“……”

“I still don’t want to be perceived as a risk factor for him.”

“What if you don’t like it?”

As if waiting, Neryl gently loosened his wrist.

“Are you saying you won’t be able to let go if you don’t listen?”

The magic that comes out of her hand is more than enough to burn the offense ten times to death.

Offense’s secret skill is still there, but whether we can use it in time in front of us is another story.

“……second is?”

“Don’t kill Ariena’s maiden.”

“……”

“You seem to be spinning fast, so you know what I mean? It’s good to hide it well so I can’t find her. However, it is unacceptable to try to overturn the board because it looks like we will lose the bet.”

“What if you don’t like it? Are you going to release your wrists from Xenia’s side this time?”

I shook my head at his stern answer.

“I’ll give you a reward in return.”

“under. Let’s hear it first.”

“I will make your wish come true.”

“……?”

“Because it’s a face that looks like a wish.”

“flaw. It’s the first kind of face mask I’ve ever heard of.”

Offense grinned, thinking it was a joke at first.

But when I see my face being infinitely serious, his expression hardens.

he asked cautiously.

“What do you know?”
