Chapter 3: 3

1–3. Hero, Further Elaborating on Reasons for Aspiration

 

 

 

Why would a Hero who saved the world want to join the Demon Lord’s Army–?

 

Nonsense. It’ s really a silly story when you get down to talking about it.

But I can’t explain it, so I decided to tell it like it is.

 

 

–After a journey of a little over a year, the Hero Leo Demonheart defeated the demon king Echidna.

When I returned to the holy city of Lenaye, I was greeted neither with shouts of joy from the people nor with an enormous reward from the king.

 

The only thing that was directed at me was one thing.

A gaze that was a mixture of wonder, awe, and suspicion. That was all.

 

[There is a monster stronger than the Demon King.]

 

[There is a monster in human form.]

 

[What if such a man turns on us?]

 

[No one can win.]

 

[There’s nothing we can do about it.]

 

 

[—- Kill the Hero before that happens!]

 

 

…… I’m the next demon king.

After all, that’s what most of the humans have come to believe. As if to prove it, assassins were sent in droves to target me.

To be honest, it’s beyond stupid.

 

I beg you, please use your head and think about it for a minute.

Before I left, the demon king’s army had more than half of the world under its control. In other words, even if you gathered all the armies and forces in the world, you could barely compete with the Demon Lord’s Army.

 

I, who single-handedly eradicated the Demon Lord’s Army!

Now, of all people! How are you going to kill me!

In the first place, one of the Four Heavenly Kings I defeated was a treasured child of the Assassin’s Guild.

Realize that!!! Realize that it doesn’t matter how many mediocre assassins you send!

…… No, some of them were clever enough to realize it was useless.

They sent not assassins, but the Holy Knights disguised as field thieves.

At this point, I’m too stupefied to say anything else.

 

It’s impossible to kill a Hero.

Even a three-year-old child can understand this kind of logic.

 

Then, even if you have some feelings about it, it’s better to keep them to yourself.

Let’s hoist Leo up as a hero and keep him in a good mood.

At least he saved the world once. He’s not going to turn on humanity unless something happens.

 

I was hoping that public opinion would lean in that direction, but it was all for naught. Once the fear and anxiety ignited, no one could stop it, and at last the Holy King of the Holy City himself ordered me to leave the country.

On the surface, the king seemed to sympathize with me. But I couldn’t help but notice the same suspicion in his eyes as the people.

 

Even though I was deported, I was by nature a rootless person, so I wasn’t going anywhere.

I spent my days wandering around aimlessly. What came up in my heart was anger.

 

Anger at selfish people.

 

Anger at myself, wondering why I fought for these people.

 

Anger at the poor Demon Lord’s army, who should have reduced the number of stupid people a little more.

 

“An uncontrollable golem in the form of an earthman is dangerous” is a proverb from the East, but the Hero Leo Demonheart had indeed become an uncontrollable runaway golem.

It is an extremely dangerous golem with the power to destroy the world.

 

Finally, the angry golem crossed two oceans and seven mountains, visited the castle of his former enemy, the demon king Echidna, and pretended to be a senior demon tribe who seemed to have some skill there, and sneaked into a recruitment interview (mid-career slot) for the newborn demon king army.

 

If the world tries to kill me, I will kill the world before it does.

 

 

 

[That’s why I’m applying for this job.]

 

[Uh-oh, uh-oh, uh-oh.]

 

Sip down the tea, which has gone completely cold, and moisten his throat.

 

After listening to the folly of humankind to the extreme.

The Four Heavenly Kings were completely quiet.

Only Lili, who had somehow pulled up a chair next to me, made a strange moaning sound – or was it a cry. She was giving off.
