126. King of Destruction (2)
126. King of Destruction (2)
Slope arogas. It can be said that he is the head of Arisha, who has the title of King of Destruction, and the most trusted wizard of the original protagonist, who has both strength and personality. In addition to his reliable specs, the main character is limited to the tick-tick land, but because of the way he takes good care of him from behind, users also have a dominant opinion that he trusts and uses Slop Arogas.
Speaking of Slop Arogas’ character, it can be said that he is a chivalrous character. Sometimes he sacrifices himself to earn the nickname Hogu and at the same time brings pity to the users, but it is Slop Arogas who gets up and shows a mischievous appearance no matter what happens. It means he is a likable person.
In addition, I was helped several times by Slop Arogas. I don’t think of the obvious reason that if I receive something, I give it back, and I haven’t done anything to the slopes so far. Although he had to treat him to something, even if it was something trivial like a treat for lunch. Like that, he served bread to the slop who came to the store.
“I felt this last time too, but this tea is really delicious. Doesn’t it fit my mouth perfectly?”
“I’m glad you liked it. How about the bread? I bought it from a store that agreed to partner with us. Does it taste good?”
“Yes! I can’t eat a normal meal at all these days… Great.”
Slope, who was eating three loaves of bread in a hurry, suddenly stopped talking.
“Are you struggling financially enough to not be able to eat?”
“Oh, no. Didn’t you just have no appetite?”
“During the undead incident, I dragged you to the wire. If you got hurt there, you would have had a big problem in your life. Ya Slop Arogas.”
When I called, Slop put the bread he was holding into his mouth all at once and swallowed it in one gulp. Then his throat is choked and he chirps. Sora, who was sitting there, hurriedly runs over, pours tea into Slop’s mouth, and pats him on the back.
“I can’t give you money or anything like that. Aren’t you going to take it too?”
“… Yes.”
“But I can give you a sense of work. While living in the Shiiza Market, you will naturally form friendships with the store managers. Do you know the structure of the market well?”
Slop nodded at my words. Most of the shops in the Shaiza Market are shops that have been handed down from generation to generation. Therefore, if you write a part-time job, most of them call juniors in the same class or friends. To train successors, and to protect the secrets of the shop. After running it like that, when he graduates, he passes it on to his juniors.
If you don’t have a network, it means that working in the marketplace is not easy.
In the case of famous stores in the market, there are hundreds of chain stores outside the academy. There are stores that have been around for decades, so a student who ran the store while attending the academy opened a chain store outside after graduation. There is also a case where a student who operated such a small shop expanded his business after graduation and grew into a large upper-class stock.
Anyway, working at the Shiza market is good. Arisha Academy students who are reluctant to go to District 2, graduate students, military academy students, and religious people. The turnover of money is also fast because it comes all over the place. There is always a lot of work, but it must have been difficult for Slop to find work because of the conservative atmosphere in writing part-time jobs.
But if I were in a position like mine, I could give him a job directly or get him a part-time job at another store.
“If you need money, I can put you in the right place.”
“Take… Big hum. If anything is needed, I will let you know.”
“I know you won’t come after saying that. Well, I won’t bring this up again. You just have to think that opportunities are always open.”
“Yes. Thank you.”
Slope Arogas said that and tried to take a sip of strawberry tea. But the teacup is empty. Nishia, who was nearby, brings a kettle and pours tea into Slop’s cup.
“Strawberries from that strawberry tea. Did I harvest?”
“Really? I think it’s a really groundbreaking drink.”
“Isn’t it? Did you hear the senior? The strawberries I harvested are well received.”
“Very well done.”
“hehehe”
Nishia smiles and sits down. There is no work right now because her store is scheduled to open from the next weekday, but she is Nishia who keeps her place. Slop Arogas ponders over something while fiddling with a cup of strawberry tea. Then he cleared his throat and opened his mouth.
“Then, can I get some of this strawberry tea? Quite a lot.”
“Yes. Strawberry tea is piled up like a mountain, so take some. But drinking only strawberry tea is a bit off, so buy something like bread and eat it together.”
“Yes… Well, actually it’s not what I’m trying to drink. There is a child in the nursery that I care about.”
Slop said that and let out a deep sigh.
“The child’s father passed away not too long ago. Wasn’t he a bit dangerous?”
“What if it is dangerous?”
“He was the one who flew in the dark. In the end, he was caught by an adventurer and lost his life. The problem is… I don’t know how the rumor spread, but rumors spread that the child was abandoned by someone from the underworld.”
Slope said that and took a sip of tea. As I look at Sora, Sora nods her head and heads for the warehouse.
“This is a fact that the child did not know. He was just abandoned. However, neither the children from the same nursery school nor the fellow adventurers who were victimized by the child’s father are in a big mess.”
“Didn’t you get involved in something dangerous?”
At my question, Slop sighed and nodded.
“The director has taken care of me, so I am protected, but there was also an adventurer who said he would kill the child. Now the child is completely despondent… Isn’t it obvious what will happen if you go out of the education district to avoid rumors? That’s why I’m holding on in the education district, but I can’t do anything about it. So, I want to give you something delicious.”
A slope that makes an impression as if his heart hurts as if it were his own work. I took out another piece of bread and handed it to him. Slope starts munching on the bread in silence. He seemed to be thinking beyond words.
“Okay, I’ll give you enough strawberry tea. And… Let me know if anything happens. I will help if I can, just like you helped me last time. Is there anyone else to ask for help anyway?”
“Thank you. I’ve felt it before, but seniors take good care of their juniors. I think I know why the senior’s name is mentioned so much among my peers. It is a hot topic, especially among female students.”
When the slope said that. Sora comes out with a bunch of Worros strawberry sets and starts tying them with her string.
“Take that with you when you go. And think about the part-time job I mentioned earlier.”
“Yes. Thank you.”
I shook hands with Srop and sent him off. As the slope goes out, Nishia sits down in front of me.
“He is a nicer friend than he looks.”
“Yes. People like that are really hard to find. I’m sure he’s a good person.”
“If you are the young master, you will surely be able to help him. If it’s not rude, may I ask why you didn’t do that?”
That was Sora’s question. As Sora said, if it were me, I could help Slop. In addition to getting him a job, you can tell Eldenia about the child Srop is worried about and have him educated under the protection of the Church.
But I didn’t do it on purpose. That’s because Slop Arogas himself didn’t ask me for help. When I quit judo and got a job as a homicide detective, I developed a habit called Ojilap, which made me sting, but this is a problem with the slope.
If it was the worry of a frustrated person who presses down what he wants to say, he would have been agitated, but Slop Arogas is a man. What I want to say means that I am a man who does not filter and spits it out. Because Slop is such a person, he has no intention of moving until he asks for help himself.
The more such a person is, the more seriously he thinks of the grace he has received, and depending on the situation, his pride may be hurt. I know it well because I was similar to Slope in the past.
So I decided not to worry about Srop until he asked for help himself.

Slope Arrogas was heading to Area 2 with the Woros Strawberry Set in his arms. He couldn’t stop smiling at the thought of gifting delicious strawberry tea to the children at the orphanage.
“Slope student. Are you here again?”
“How are you, Director? It is nothing but a present for the children.”
“There is nothing I can do for you. Besides, isn’t the life of a student difficult?”
“Don’t worry. It’s because I got it from a trustworthy senior. Really. None of my money went in.”
A middle-aged woman with white hair accepts a set of strawberries from a slop. She bows her head as if she truly appreciates Slop.
“Because I have young friends like slope students, I was able to go out and say with confidence that the world is beautiful.”
“hahahaha, please do that. It’s embarrassing, isn’t it?”
It was when I was carrying the strawberry set inside the nursery with the director.
“Whoa, Director! It was a big deal.”
“What happened?”
“That… Ayelin is gone. Until just now… I was drawing and suddenly.”
“Yes? Have you looked around the nursery school?”
“Yes, yes. I went to the playground… I can’t see it.”
The director’s face begins to turn white at the words of the nursery school staff. Ayelin is a child with a bit of a problem. That’s because his father was a man from the world of darkness who had been murdered a while ago, and people who had been disadvantaged by his father came and urged him to give up Ayelin.
Slop brought a wooden chair from nearby and sat the director down. Then he takes out a wooden staff hidden under his clothes.
“Please report this to the school district guard. And don’t worry too much, Director.”
Slop Aro Gas lowers his body to eye level with the director and continues his words.

“I will definitely find Ayelin and bring her back. She will be fine.”
“Slope student. I-I can’t be this helpless.”
“First of all, take a break. Your complexion is not good.”
Slop Arogas said that and looked at the nursery school staff with his sidelong glance. The woman who received Slop’s gaze nodded her head and ran to her place. Slop also gets up from his seat, clutching his staff.
