The Fake Hero Is Too Strong

Reunion Preparation – 1

During a few days at the president’s house, Lena visited me and chatted with me every single day.

But except for the time with her, I spent all my time talking with the ‘voice’.

[You did really well. It’s only been 50 since this case became a small culture before it spread, but this woman will soon start making your name known.]

‘ah. So, the points to be acquired in this case are…’

[okay. I’ve seen a lot of people rejoicing over Lena’s safe return over the past few days. Perhaps Lena was a popular celebrity in town. you made a lot of people happy So 700 points will be added.]

‘……’

[Now do you understand? Before starting anything, always think of ‘the greatest happiness of the greatest number’. This absolute proposition will raise your reputation and make you a hero someday.]

okay. i get it.

by the way. There is something I wanted to say before.

‘Why did you talk nonsense from the beginning?’

The voice was silent for a while.

Then he asked, very, very cautiously.

[…Isn’t it possible?]

‘No, it’s just that I’m so exhausted that I’m going to ask again.’

[Then do it. You can talk to me as much as you want.]

‘How long can I not call you, you? I think he already knows my name. Tell me your name too.’

[after. I forgot even the name. Call me at your convenience. Or you can build it.]

you won’t regret it

My naming skills are said to be well-known on the continent.

‘Transparent.’

[What?]

‘Because I can’t see it, it’s transparent…’

[I forgot, but I remembered it. My name is Trail.]

‘……’

[It’s a trail. really.]

Got it, Trail.

I rubbed my palms.

New abilities are abilities, but there is something else that I am interested in right now.

Memory before return.

The numerous quests and information I went through until I defeated the Demon King remain in my head.

‘Let’s see. Did you go back 7 years?’

Kayle said, ‘The hero is dead from the start.’ had said

In other words, at this point, the real hero ‘Bion Kunze’ is already dead.

It is impossible to find a true hero and crush Caled’s scheme.

But there is no need to be discouraged.

‘Yes, for instance…’

tock tock.

I pounded on the table with my index finger and fell into thought.

‘For example, Caled hasn’t even gathered all the party members yet.’

I’m his last party member.

According to my memory, there were 3 years left before he came to visit me.

And I remember all the other party members in what year and month they first met the hero.

‘At this point, maybe three people are left. Heroes that the hero has not yet met.’

Soon I laughed out loud.

Then I’ll have to meet you first.

Memories before regression and new abilities.

Using these…

‘wait. I’ll definitely take your mask off.’

Fake warrior Kayle.

[It’s called a trail. Believe it.]

’cause I knew

‘Tell me what you want more than that.’

[Well?]

‘Looks like he’s trying to help me with his eccentric powers, but I don’t get favors for no reason.’

[You’re a skinny guy.]

it’s bound to be

Aren’t ‘sinners’ around me every day?

Of course, there is no one who does not sin in life, and I am one of them.

Still, knowing how many times you have sinned against a particular person is a completely different thing.

‘What’s the purpose anyway.’

[The world is still beautiful and livable. It is better to change the habit of accepting the favor of others crookedly…]

‘OK. Let’s break up here.’

[Come on, wait! What are you in such a hurry for? calm down.]

‘Why again John?’

The boy was a bit restless, and then said calmly.

[I have only one purpose. I’m going to kill Idria, the demon king of lies.]

‘……’

[Before the return, you succeeded in uncovering Caled’s ‘false’. However, he died without a page for Idria, the lord of lies.]

‘The expression is very cheap.’

[I have to kill Idria for some reason. However, the Demon King is not killed by beings other than the Hero.]

Oh, so.

‘So you’re going to make me a hero? You helped me build my reputation?’

[okay. It’s what you wanted before you died. You will enjoy the glory as a hero, and I will defeat the Demon King. It will be a very good win-win relationship.]

‘…… Hmmm.’

To be precise, I just want to enjoy a peaceful retirement life.

Well, that’s what it is after all.

Someone must kill the Demon King.

Kyle can’t do that.

So I will.

It was a very logical development and a perfect match of understanding.

I smiled softly and said.

‘great. Let’s try our best. Transparent.’

[It is a trail.]

‘Well, that’s not important.’

[It is important.]

‘I have to move slowly. What I need to become a hero is fame. There’s no way that reputation can be built up by sitting still in one place.’

[Well. Good idea.]

tick.

Suddenly, that big screen of courtesy appeared in front of me.

However, unlike before, there was a large continental inversion drawn there.

‘Can’t you do something like this?’

[okay. take a good look The Drucker estate where you are now is here.]

Simultaneously with those words, a light began to appear at a point on the map.

[Think of the fame you have earned for the brightness and size of this white light. For three days, the rumors about you spread enough, and now it’s around 450. If I have to pull out all the rest, it won’t go over 1,000.]

‘……’

[In a word, it is a firefly.]

‘See the analogy.’

[no. Really. Compared to this.]

widely.

I think I heard something snapping my fingers.

Then a gloomy, venomous black mist rose from the southwest region of the map.

The fog had already completely covered three or four estates, unlike me, who was shining slightly from one point on the continent.

It is at a level that cannot be compared in terms of width and depth of color.

[This is the fame that Caled has now.]

‘what?’

[He’s already got three heroes. Since the oracle hasn’t come down yet, I haven’t been able to make a name for myself on a continental scale. However, in the southwest area, he is already on par with a hero.]

‘……’

[That is the size of the reputation you have to catch up with. Can you guess?]

I swallowed my saliva.

Seeing that, my light is definitely like a firefly.

‘I’m in the northeast right now. Since the continent is long up and down… I’ll have to gradually build up my reputation from here. For the time being, I can’t even look at the lower region.’

[I think so too. So what’s next?]

‘Ummm.’

I crossed my arms and fell in thought.

What should I do?

What was the famous event at this time before the return?

Even if it doesn’t resonate with the whole continent, at least what happened to the people in this region…

“ah!”

I jumped up from my seat.

“That’s it!”

[Right!]

“Don’t pretend you know. I didn’t say anything.”

[Because I read your thoughts.]

Trail opened his mouth in a subdued tone.

[It will be a long time since we meet again. right?]

That’s right.

Sooner or later, a fairly famous and cruel incident takes place in the Quink estate not far from here.

There is one terrifying woman who stole the hearts of the people of the continent for many years.

A rare evil woman who travels east, west, north, and south, committing all kinds of atrocities.

The so-called Wicked Witch.

Neryl Slaine.

My former party member

More precisely.

‘It’s a party member who hasn’t been able to wield a magic beast yet due to the timing.’

Then I have to take the lead.

Shall we go see Auntie after a long time?

“Uh-huh. mister. don’t go don’t go.”

Lena, who thinks of me as a ‘white horse’ uncle, was held in my arms and burst into tears.

Our chairman of the company showed off the journey of seeing such a daughter laugh and frown at the same time.

“You have to go. I have work to do.”

“What is it! I’m here with you. I will make you happy.”

“sorry. But I will come to see you again someday.”

“…Really? Isn’t that a lie?”

“of course.”

Lena got all my clothes wet with tears and runny nose, and then it fell off.

“Cheong. I see. Please come back. At that time, he must have grown up to regret the choice he made now.”

“Fufu. okay.”

She wiped away her tears and stepped back.

Then the chairman stepped forward and opened his mouth.

“I am very sorry to have to send you this way. It’s also rumored to be.”

“yes?”

“I heard that the sword of immortality does not stay in one place.”

Please stop calling me that.

Just call me swordsman!

[I like that one.]

“Was the treatment I gave you insufficient?”

“It’s not like that. And it wouldn’t be an inconvenience if I said I would really stay.”

“yes?”

Instead of answering, I chinked on Lena, who was still sniffing from behind.

The chairman’s face hardened slightly, knowing what he meant.

I whispered to him.

“If you’re like the president of the company, there must be something more important than your daughter’s romance.”

“……”

“No, don’t look like that. I’m not particularly bad at arranged marriage. It’s just that I don’t have to face myself for nothing.”

His expression turned slightly displeased.

“Do I look like that!”

“……”

“It is disappointing. Madame. I have no shame in looking up to the sky…”

“What crime have you committed against Eid Blackat?”

The CEO’s eyes fluttered at my words.

It didn’t show on his face like an old merchant, but it doesn’t seem to be enough to hide his eyes, the windows of his heart.

“Wow, what… what do you know?”

Actually I don’t know anything.

Because I didn’t have to see his secrets through the eyes of the omniscient.

But you know very well that you have sinned against that person.

“Chairman.”

“……”

“Buy kindly. Let’s not see each other again.”

I left the Drucker estate behind the bewildered chairman.

Inside the carriage heading to the Quenk estate.

I checked the operation with the trail.

Until now, there were three brave party members Caled had obtained.

And there are three other party members I haven’t gotten my hands on yet.

I have to take all three of the remaining three to get the balance right.

‘Neril was the member who most agrees with me.’

It’s a belated regret, but I’d rather think about what would have happened if I told Neryl at that time…

Kayle said he had committed a crime against 148 million people.

Obviously, Neryl burst out an absurd laugh.

He might have turned his index finger around his head.

‘But in the past, they would have listened to it seriously.’

[You seem to be quite a believer. That woman named Neryl.]

‘I don’t know if the word “believe” is correct. At least he doesn’t want to ignore him.’

[Hmm. But it wouldn’t have changed if I said it beforehand. Because I wouldn’t have been able to write a page for the Demon King of Lies anyway.]

Oh, some expression.

Anyway, except for me, she was the only woman who doubted the hero Caled.

It’s not just a question based on reasons like mine, but ‘Is Kayle’s ability worthy of a hero?’ It was a bit of a suspicion, but he couldn’t even compare it to other party members.

[However, a witch of wretchedness is a person with a rather terrifying title. Of course, it’s not as good as the firefighting sword system.]

‘no no. The sword of immortality has nothing to do with it.’

[…I’m sorry.]

‘Besides, there’s something quite unfair about being called a witch of wretchedness. I didn’t know until later when I became a party member.’

[ok?]

I remained silent for a moment before answering.

‘Most of them were framed.’
