7 – Little bastards without grace
I couldn’t help but burst out laughing when I saw the new warrior.
‘The dog-like bastards who ignored me and doubted me, and the bastards of the ex-hero party who attacked me. I’m looking forward to what kind of hardships they will face in the future.’
At the same time, the brave Yun Seong-won grumbled at the goddess next to him this time.
– To say that a noble warrior like me has to come to a dirty slum, this old tradition must be changed quickly. Isn’t that right, Filiwena?
– Shut up. What do you do when someone else hears you?
– hahahaha. The Goddess is also very concerned. After all, the people who live here are garbage, so you can’t hear conversations from so far away.
– But you never know. So watch out for her mouth.
– Yes, I see. Goddess.
I was seriously questioned.
‘How did such a little bastard become a hero?’
Before I was kicked out, I heard from Jinsuyeon, the goddess’s representative, that he had prepared a hero to replace me. However, the guy in front of me didn’t seem strong enough to replace me.
‘Are you weaker than me no matter how you look at it? My strength is weaker than mine, and my personality is different…’
I don’t know the exact reason, but one thing is certain. That the goddess Filiwena had thrown a huge amount of garbage into the goddess Abelida.
The hero walked into the center of the slum, and began to unload the trucks by hand one by one. When things were sorted out to some extent, a new hero. Yun Seong-won used amplification magic and talked.
“Hello everyone. I am a new warrior who took office here. My name is Seongwon Yoon. After working only in the Filiwena Goddess Office, it is a new feeling to come to Abelida Goddess Office like this. Judging from the situation here, it seems that the former hero didn’t pay much attention to the slums. I will work hard for you and make sacrifices differently than I did before. I will do my best to help all who are struggling and suffering from poverty.”
After the hero’s brief greeting was over, people began to shout.
“Waaa-!”
“A new hero has arrived-!”
Many whispers could be heard in the crevices of the people.
“This time, the hero looks cute because he looks different from the former warrior Kang Eun-chan. After all, it seems that it is not for nothing that a person with a good impression has a good personality. do you see it over there? huge amounts of material. That’s enough food for the entire slum for a month. The quality looks very good.”
“Why do you say things that are obvious? Of course, there is a different dimension to Yongsa-rang, who becomes addicted to holy water and embezzles holy water to be given to the slums no matter who comes. We are finally seeing hope.”
I couldn’t understand the reaction of the people in the slums. The reason was simple. Because I haven’t done enough to insult them.
First of all, part of the money earned each month was used to send supplies to them on a regular basis.
Also, although it was not a mandatory task, he visited this place frequently until he was cursed and periodically patrolled to see if the demon king army was attacking him or if there were no demons around.
‘Dogs…’
Besides, even if people don’t notice, I’ve done a lot of hard work for them behind the scenes. When the slums overflowed with water due to the flood, they hired hundreds of wizards at a huge expense to help repair the damage. In addition, he periodically cleared up the criminal organizations that existed in this place without people knowing. Just so that criminal groups don’t bully them.
The reason I paid so much attention is because the first place I stopped after becoming a hero was a slum. When I first saw the people in the slums, I thought it was a pity. And I thought I could help them. These good intentions gradually turned into affection, and as a result, I was genuinely worried about them.
Obviously, I loved them.
‘You’re treating me like an asshole and sucking on a new hero for bringing you only one item.’
[Check information]
I checked the materials brought by Yun Seong-won, a new hero.
‘Sicks. I knew this.’
Rice, bread, clothes, etc. existed, but all of them were ‘lowest’. Literally, it means that they bought cheap items in bulk.
‘You have magic’
Magic to change the appearance was applied to the materials so that they did not look cheap.
‘It’s just like seeing as much as you know, praising garbage and food.’
When I was a warrior, the materials I provided to them were always intermediate or higher. It’s not that low end cheap sh*t.
‘More and more, the goddess Abelida. It’s getting disgusting here.’
I honestly expected it. The foolish expectation that people in the slums I often help would trust me. But the reality was very cruel.
People who forget the help I gave them and believe the frame. As if they had forgotten the word trust, the people of the slums were scolding me to death. Even, a new hero came and talked about how well it went. I’m sick of these guys.
‘I have to leave soon. If there were any more, it would make me want to kill them all.’
At that time, Ga-hyun Park muttered as if she didn’t like it.
“People are too… How well did Brave Kang Eun-chan do it?
In the midst of her cheers, she alone had a sad expression on her face.
I felt grateful, but honestly, it didn’t really touch my heart. After all, this girl is also a member of the slum. I’m defending myself like this now, but I don’t know how it will change in the future.
Actually, all the warrior party members who followed me and cared for me were all suspicious of me and abandoned me. Trusting someone is useless.
“Wow!”
“A new hero!”
“Now the true hero has come-!”
I looked at those who were still shouting loudly. For some reason, it seemed that my mind was clearing up faster.
‘If the Demon King is released from the seal, he will never be able to stop such a trashy warrior.’

Even I ended up just sealing the Demon King using this Gaesagi trait, but is that guy dealing with the Demon King? It was absurd.
‘There’s not much left, so be happy you assholes.’
With that thought, I stared intently at the approaching hero.
People bowed their heads to show courtesy as the new hero Eun-chan Kang was approaching. But I didn’t bow my head. You bastard isn’t worth it.
Basic words and deeds, even the behavior of deceiving items to be provided to the slums with magic, as if they had done something great. None of them were my favourites. Above all, even at first glance, his ability seemed low, which made him even more angry.
‘Did I get replaced by this guy?’
——
Sungwon Yun waved his hand among the people with their heads bowed and spoke with a smile to the people.
“Everyone. Kang Eun-chan, a former hero, knows that he was expelled from the goddess Abelida for stealing holy water to be paid to the slums. I will never forgive such a heinous act! How could you have coveted and robbed those who did not have it? Wearing human clothing and acting like a scum, I can’t bear to be ashamed of having the same profession as him.”
“In the future, please do not worry about anything. In the future I will! I will protect you.”
Sungwon Yun’s speeches that were not speeches continued after that. Watching, she marveled. It’s amazing how people can be so different back and forth.
When all the speeches and supplies were finished, Yun Seong-won prepared to leave the slum.
“Everyone, unfortunately, I don’t have much time allowed, so I think I will have to leave soon.”
People sighed and regretted it. At that time, Yoon Seong-won turned his head around and his eyes met with Park Ga-hyun.
Seongwon Yoon asked her a question as she trudged over to her.
“You are a very nice person. Before I leave, I have a question for you. Could you accompany me for a while?”
Ga-hyeon Park gave a disliked look, but Seong-won Yoon didn’t care and grabbed her wrist.
“Just a moment. There’s a project I’m envisioning to help people in the slums, because it requires a beautiful woman. You look just right.”
After the story that it was to help the slums came out, Ga-hyeon Park replied as if there was nothing she could do.
“For now, I’ll just listen to the story then.”
Yoon Seong-won said with a smirk.
“There is a villa that Goddess Abelida has provided for me right next door. It’s a little difficult to talk in a place like this, so let’s go there.”
Gahyun Park, Seongwon Yun, Goddess Filiwena, and dozens of escorts left at once.
‘What the hell is that bastard doing that?’
[cloaking]
– The body becomes transparent temporarily.
If any of the other bastards had taken one, she wouldn’t have cared to rip it in half or kill it, but Ga-Hyun Park was the only one who defended me. She was quite concerned.
‘Let’s go along.’
I used the stealth skill and followed Yun Seong-won.
