6 – Seongwon Yoon, the new hero
‘Wow, this place is still empty’
I am now in the slums of the Kingdom of Abelida. On Earth, it feels like a shanty town.
‘Before you leave, you should visit this place’
I decided to leave this damn Goddess Kingdom, but I thought I should stop by this place. Because there are many people who I have donated and helped so far live here.
‘How are you doing these days?’
For reference, I use a virtual face skill to change my current appearance to a middle-aged old man, and wear clothes like a geek. It’s like an endless homeless person.
-Kolok-!
-Kolok-!
People who looked sick were coughing here and there. I naturally blended in with them and coughed and looked around to see how the people were doing.
At that time, a man spoke.
“These days, the supply of holy water has been cut off.”
“That’s right. There are a lot of sick people, but what should we do if we suddenly cut off holy water like this…”
Sacred water is an item like a potion that a goddess can craft. The grades of holy water exist from the lowest to the highest, and the higher the grade, the more effective the treatment of diseases or wounds.
But holy water also has side effects. The higher the level of holy water, the more addictive it becomes. It’s like being addicted to using narcotic painkillers frequently.
Of course, when treating wounds, we simply spray holy water, but do not consume it directly, so there is no chance of getting poisoned with holy water while treating the injured part.
‘Damn… thinking of Seongsu makes me feel like a dick again’
I was framed for being poisoned with holy water. Because I was addicted to holy water, I wanted to consume more holy water, so I threatened the goddess’s agent and took the holy water.
‘It can’t be.’
Suddenly, I remembered the images of my colleagues who did not believe me, and the goddesses and goddesses who drove me into limbs.
‘You b*tches…’
–
I was grinding my teeth by myself, and the guys I was talking to before brought up a surprising story.
“There is a story that the reason the supply of holy water was cut off was because of the warrior.”
“A hero? What does that mean?”
“It is said that the warrior Kang Eun-chan was poisoned with holy water and embezzled all the holy water to be paid to the slums.”
“Damn it! How could a bastard with no morals do such a thing in human clothing?”
“I honestly didn’t believe it either. But look at this.”
One of the men pulled out a tattered cell phone.
“Where did you get your cell phone?”
“I went to the city yesterday and stole it.”
“Huh…”
–
I naturally moved to the side of the men who pressed their phones.
– Breaking news. Some time ago, evidence was found that the hero Eun-chan Kang embezzled a huge amount of holy water. It was confirmed that Kang Eun-chan was not enough to threaten the goddess’s representative, so he stole a huge amount of holy water that should have been provided to the slums for quite a long time. did something Let’s see the video evidence.
In the video that came out after a while, I could see myself giggling, attacking her goddess and getting counterattacked by her colleagues.
‘f*ck, the parts where I say it’s unfair and the parts where I tell you to believe are all removed, and only attacks are put in by editing. These f*cking bastards…’
–
-Kang Eun-chan was permanently expelled from the goddess Abelida…
After that, the news continued. But they only spoke badly about me, and there was no opinion to defend me at all.
“The hero who helped the slums is doing such a heinous thing.”
“f*ck! Wasn’t holy water being given to us because of Eun-chan Kang? Such a bastard without a mother and father.”
At that time, other homeless people who were sleeping slowly came out one by one and asked about the situation.
“What happened?”
“Look at this. How did the brave Kang Eun-chan act like this from behind while pretending to help us in front?”
Many people watched the video. And, one by one, they started swearing at me.
“It’s been a while since I’ve said that I didn’t want to come to the slums, but it seems like they were embezzling holy water to be given to us from behind. Honestly, from the first time I saw the hero, I thought it would be like this. His eyes are gloomy and he always talks like a dick, right?”
“That’s right. Just by looking at his appearance, he looks like a certain thief, and at first he only said that he would help us, but he didn’t come here at all after he took the Demon King. After all, he pretended to take care of us as a show. It’s for your own image.”
It was embarrassing. I sincerely tried to help them. They provided numerous supplies anonymously, and if there were any signs of demonic monsters coming into this place, they took the lead and protected them more than anyone else. After defeating the Demon King, he just couldn’t come because the curse got worse.
I really worked hard for them, not for images. With an unhappy heart, I spoke to them in the form of an old man.
“Huh… Young people… The hero’s help for us is great, but don’t you all think it’s a framed one?”
Then, people looked at me with cold eyes.
“Sir, if you are senile, let’s go to sleep without making such a fuss. Isn’t it the testimony of the goddess representative? And if the hero helped us, what and how much did you say? How many people are there and how many supplies did that help?”
“Isn’t it even said that they embezzled holy water to be given to us? Why should we thank such a mean bastard?”
“Young people. I was so excited… no matter how much, the hero subdues the demon king for us…”
-Puck
In an instant, a man came forward and smashed my face.
“f*ck you! shut your mouth? Holy water that should have been paid if it was originally. Without it, my friend died. But what? What about the warrior?”
–
I looked around the people in a collapsed state. Everyone in the slum looked at me like trash.
‘Do you want to kill me? not. You don’t have to. After all, if the Demon King resurrects sooner or later, these bastards will die first.’
“Shut up…”
I got up from my seat and went to the corner. But people were still staring at me.
At that time, a girl who appeared to have just become an adult came and talked.
“Kim Yunjae! Why are you hitting the old man! Why are other people just watching? It’s not that this person was wrong! The hero could have been unfairly framed!”
“You. Are you doubting the testimony of the goddess representative now? it is blasphemy If we talk, they will be executed immediately.”
But the girl shouted indifferently.
“Try it! Do you think my father will stand still? And aren’t you the weird one? As soon as the hero who has been helping us until now suddenly subjugated the Demon King, he fell ill with holy water and left us unattended? No matter how you think about it, it’s unnatural!”
Then the man answered.
“Park Ga-hyun Girls with flowers in their hair like you don’t know about dirty parts, so they only say ideal things like that.”
“Kim Yunjae So, do men like you make such nonsensical noises because their heads are full of sh*t?”
Kim Yun-jae looked at Park Ga-hyun, and then her girl moved as if annoyed.
“Okay. Talking to you doesn’t mean anything. Get out of here”
-Pak
The girl pushed Yunjae Kim and came to me.
“Are you okay, Grandpa?”
I nodded without a word.
“Don’t worry too much. It seems like you’ve only been here for a while, but there are a lot of dirty and mean people here in the first place.”
After that, the girl talked to me for a while to comfort her. I asked her girl’s name again.
“Come on. What did she say her name? …”
“Gahyeon. This is Park Ga-hyun.”
The girl smiled and answered me.
“Once when you are having a hard time. I will help you.”
“Thank you so much for your words! Do I have a strong helper?”
From noble mtl dot com.
My current appearance is an old man. Even his clothes are sloppy, and he’s a weak old man with a tone that doesn’t look like he has any power. Nevertheless, the girl did not laugh at her saying that I would help her, but accepted it wholeheartedly.
“Gahyeonyang. I have one question. Why do you believe in heroes?”
“The hero saved my life once. The hero probably won’t remember, but…”
As the girl said. She is not in my memory of her.
Receiving people’s cold gaze, the girl and I talked about various things. Meanwhile, a man with a big trumpet loudly blew her trumpet and shouted.
“A new hero is in full swing! Let everyone be polite!”
‘You have already come.’
Why I came to the slums. I wondered what the people I had helped before would think of me, but partly because of the new warrior tradition.
A new hero inaugurated in the Goddess Kingdom must visit the slums of the Goddess Kingdom before visiting the temple. And she goes around the slums, handing out things like food and supplies. It is like a kind of ritual to protect the weak and powerless.
I was curious. What kind of hero would have left me and appointed a new one?
“The warrior who ran from the goddess Filiwena to the goddess Abelida in one month. The great Yun Seong-won is coming.”
From a distance, a man adorned with artifacts and other things walked out and murmured.
It may not have been heard by other people, but it was clearly audible to my ears, which had been reinforced. He whispered:
“Hey, why do you keep telling me to go to a place like this?”
Is that a new hero? Jerk the. You can clearly see what the future will be like.
