1 – Defeated the demon king – 1

[You have achieved the achievement of defeating the demon king.]

Huge horns and pile-like size.

A message window popped up in front of my eyes at the same time as the warrior’s sword was inserted into the neck of the demon king, who had been spraying numerous tentacles and dark energy on his bulging muscles.

It’s been 3 years since I was possessed by the game I used to play.

Now it’s only less than an hour.

I went through a lot of hardship after hearing the condition that I could return to reality if I achieved all the achievements.

Of course, you can’t go back immediately after catching the demon king.

Still, isn’t it enough to be happy just to have crossed one of the biggest mountains?

Anyway, I can say goodbye to the things that have been giving me a hard time.

“hahaha…”

The warrior who cut off the head of the demon king.

Delicate blonde hair that looks like it was made by melting and pouring gold.

A slim face that shows the hardships of the long journey.

The owner of scarlet eyes resembling the sun and slender arms in contrast to that mighty power.

Claire, a beautiful woman with an impressive slender body, looked at me and said with difficulty.

“There…the… sage… meeting, recovery…”

“Ah. That’s right.”

I was awakened by her cry and looked at the other party members.

He had silver hair with a hint of blue and was as tall as me as a man.

A female knight who proves her strength with the muscles exposed on the inside of her armor. Leventia was gasping for blood from the demon king’s attack.

A green-eyed beauty with beautiful black hair that shines like the night sky.

An elven archer who can tell that her heart is completely broken now thanks to her long droopy ears. Evangeline trembled, holding only the bow with the string cut off.

At least standing here is the official leader of the hero’s party, the hero Claire.

And there was only one unofficial party member, Na Sage Yoon Hyeon-woo.

“Hyeon… now…?”

I was a little worried about the voice that barely called me.

That’s also true, because 80% of my hardships over the past 3 years have been because of them messing around.

Seeker of the Eight Stars.

This game I entered is a roguelike game that is famous for its difficulty.

If you die, you can’t revive it.

Also, it’s not a sunfish, it’s sudden death due to stress, or leaving the party.

Or, it is frequent to hit the back of the head.

It was a very dirty game.

Anyway, when I entered this game, the warrior party was already formed, and I couldn’t join the party either because of the game’s settings or because of the sage’s job characteristics.

In the end, as an unofficial party member, I chased after them and supported them, and the things I experienced in the process were so diverse…

To be honest, I couldn’t help but worry about whether or not to treat those who no longer needed it.

“Tongue… Sage? No… Hyeonu…?”

I shrugged my shoulders at the frightened voice.

There are still unfinished achievements and small things they can do for you, so there’s no need to let them die here.

“heel.”

A soft light emanating from the wand enveloped the surroundings. At that moment, the two, who were incapacitated in combat, let out a big sigh and could be seen coming to their senses and getting up.

“Whoa… you stupid human…!!”

Is it because I used heels late? Evangeline, the elven archer, came up to me and growled.

After her, the sorceress Leventia stared at me with a blunt expression and showed contempt.

“…Chit. You don’t even have the will to help your comrades?”

As soon as I recovered, they were blaming me and relieving the stress accumulated while fighting the devil.

And Claire, the warrior who should stop them, was only looking at me with a dark expression.

okay. She, the head of the party, watched as they built their self-esteem through meaningless and unreasonable selling.

I’m afraid I’ll refute.

I’m afraid I’ll get angry.

I’m afraid that the party that has been on the edge will be broken by doing so.

There’s nothing wrong with that.

Maintaining the party by using me as a scapegoat in the first place was what I wanted, and it was also a strategy that was effectively used in the game.

Of course, since my heart is made of glass, I couldn’t help but feel a pain in my stomach.

First of all, I am a man too.

All three of them are beautiful, and they were good friends in their own way until the beginning and middle.

Claire, who was chosen as the hero by drawing the warrior’s sword, always felt sorry and grateful to me for following me without receiving God’s protection, the privilege of the warrior party.

Leventia, a proud sorceress, is blunt, but she did not hesitate to help people along with me to achieve achievements by raising my reputation in the city for achievements.

The elf archer, Evangeline, who laughed as she loved my lute playing and singing, even offered to make me an honorary elf after we had a festival event together.

The journey of the main story was difficult and painful to the extent that everyone changed.

But what do you do when you think back to the past?

“Haah … Anyway, I went down to the Devil, so let’s return to the royal road.”

The hero’s party’s duty is to defeat the demon lord.

Having accomplished that, they will all have to return to their places.

okay.

The hero will return to the kingdom and become a hero.

The knights will return to the knights.

The elf… will return to the forest?

Or you could just stay in the kingdom.

As members of the warriors’ party, they will all be able to gather in one place as they have accomplished the great feat of defeating the demon lord.

Of course not me.

I’m a part-time worker who’s not at the original party, and I’m not interested in anything like that.

“Yes, yes. Let’s go. Come on.”

As the sale of Leventia and Evangeline ended earlier than usual, Claire hurriedly said, looking at me and the other party members.

Portal, a magic that only warriors can use, has been completed. In front of the dimensional door connected to the royal capital, Claire looked at me earnestly.

Well…

“Your mental state is rotten. When I return to the Knights, I will treat you as my servant and train you properly. Follow me.”

“It’s not like that, but I think it’s better to be a low-level forest keeper who manages the forest.”

“How about a soldier in the kingdom? Or a servant in my mansion would be fine.”

“Hey, hey. Can we talk about that later…?”

“If the hero says so, then we should accept it.”

“Huh. The Honorable Elf Hero is trying to protect even an idiot like you.”

The two of them started chattering about my treatment after defeating the demon king.

The knights’ servants, no, the knights’ servants would be better.

not. Still, since rice is so-so, wouldn’t it be better to take it with you as a foodie at a party?

Wouldn’t it be better to grow trees in the forest?

It might be better to put in as a soldier of the kingdom.

I laughed while the two of them were talking hard and Claire didn’t know what to do and didn’t dissuade her.

“Okay. Come on. Guys. Let’s get together.”

“Ohhh. Yes. Have you decided? You’re going to join the Knights, right? To correct your rotten state of mind…”

“It’s a forest. A forest. You stupid thing. If it weren’t for the nobility of the forest, that idiot wouldn’t be a proper human being.”

As if there was still a lot of stress left, they eagerly sold me and drew a blueprint for my future.

Of course, the blueprint was quite far from what I was supposed to do.

It’s not like you can achieve achievements by doing things like servants or servants.

I checked the remaining achievements. In order to defeat the demon king, I got all the achievements that I had to go through the main story while wandering around as a warrior party.

What remains is the end of the main story, that is, achievements that have not been done in the meantime through the adventure mode that can be done after defeating the demon king, or achievements that can be obtained after defeating the demon king.

There was absolutely no reason to cling to the warriors’ party like now.

so that.

Because there is no reason to defeat the demon lord and join them.

I smiled at them.

very lightheartedly.

“It’s been fun being together so far, let’s live well on our own from now on!”

It wasn’t particularly fun though.

What can I say when I leave?

“…What? Tongue, sage. Hyunwoo… what is that…?”

“Let’s do some relief before we part!”

Chapter 5 of the main story.

Until we became awkward, I reached out my hand for relief, which I always did whenever it was difficult.

Of course, they just stared blankly at me as if they didn’t understand.

“Now! Today than yesterday! Tomorrow than today!”

“…..”

“One! Two! Three! Fighting!”

The slogans ended with only me shouting and raising my hand.

The hero removed his hand from the sword to open the portal, the knight frowned as if he did not understand, and the elf gritted his teeth.

“Hey… Tongue, Hyeonu? No. Tongue, Sage. What’s wrong…?”

The hero said as if he was silent.

“Huh? Now that we’ve captured the Demon King and we’ve done all our business, we’re going to go our separate ways, right?”

“What. What… What are you talking about!!”

Reventia shouted out loud, and I shrugged.

“No… I said from the beginning that I would only be with you until the demon lord was defeated, right?”

“There’s still a lot to do!”

“I guess so.”

The demon king fell, but there were many demons.

It is true that the power of the warrior party is needed to eliminate them all.

“You guys.”

But there is no reason for me to go there together.

The reason is simple.

Because it doesn’t belong to achievements.

Other than acquiring all the achievements to get out of this damn world, I wasn’t really interested.

“…is that a lie?”

Ever since I took back the honorary elf position I was given, the elf archer who always called me a jerk was pretty confused.

Her always graceful and arrogant eyes trembled quite a bit.

“Lies. You idiot. Can you joke even in this situation? Huh. Okay. It would be a great honor for you, but to you again an honor elf…”

“No. No. What kind of honor elf. I don’t care about that.”

For an instant, Claire’s scarlet eyes fluttered.

Even though she is a hero, she is a coward on the inside, and she was afraid when I said I was leaving.

“Hey, tongue, Hyeonu. What happened so far…”

“You followed the party on your own!! Are you saying you want to run away now!!”

Leventia shouted. That his mind is rotten, that he needs to be properly trained. To say that he would properly roll it as his own seed. That I had to work as a servant for an aristocratic family.

She insists that she is right.

As a member of the warrior party, he shouted harshly at me while falling into the stubbornness he created to protect himself from the countless pain, suffering, and stress he experienced as a member of the warrior party, and Evangeline similarly began to sell me, not knowing if she wanted to hold me back or let me go.

“Let’s say that… We both achieved what we wanted, right?”

You are warriors, and as members of the warrior party, you hoped to defeat the demon lord.

That’s why I relieved myself of the excessive dissatisfaction and stress from the difficult journey.

I wanted to complete the achievement by progressing through the main story and defeating the demon king.

That’s why I sacrificed for three years for your stable journey.

It was a really neat deal, a deal.

Just like you have to go home after you buy something, isn’t it the end now that you’ve achieved each other’s goals?

At the mention of an extremely obvious truth, Claire began to be visibly embarrassed.

“Hyunwoo. I’ll apologize instead… Tia and Eva aren’t like that…”

“Ohhh. No. No. It’s okay.”

In the game system, party members are originally limited to three.

What I followed like this was, in the end, a trick.

In the process, the decrease in liking for me and the increase in stress were easily seen in the game, so there is nothing that I can not understand the behavior of the guys who have been doing so far.

Of course, I had a hard time in the process, so I want to ask about my parents’ well-being and a couple of 5700 characters, but there are still things they have to do, so let’s not go that far.

“……”

Unlike me, who had finished organizing, the warrior party members were perplexed.

In the meantime, I was the one who got all kinds of temper, harassed me, handed over chores, and didn’t get angry even if I didn’t acknowledge my achievements and somehow caught up.

But is it confusing that they kicked off the seat of glory they proposed in their own way and left?

“Anyway, you’ve worked hard… Do your best to defeat the remaining monsters! Fighting! If it’s you guys, you’ll be able to do it well!”

okay. you’ll do just fine

In the meantime, I’ve raised a lot of levels, I’ve accumulated experience, and the army will help me.

“Wait a minute! How are you going to go? You seem to be excited right now, but let’s talk first… You can use a portal to get back! Are you going to walk from here? Let’s go to the royal capital. Huh? Go talk…”

The current location is in the center of the black daeruk overflowing with monsters.

To return to the kingdom from here, you must use a portal.

The portal is a magic that can only be used by warriors, so if she doesn’t allow it, I can’t help but be isolated here.

“Fuuu. Let’s talk again after calming down a bit! If you don’t like the seed, become a trainee knight, no knight…”

“…That can’t be the case. Why do you come now… If you don’t like being an honor elf…”

Is it because I realized that I am serious? The three of them didn’t know what to do and tried to hold me back with costs that didn’t mean much to me.

It’s like throwing bread to a tiger and telling him to fill his stomach.

“I can go back without using the portal.”

“…what? I can’t… I can’t.”

“Don’t worry about me… go back and get the reward for defeating the demon king. And I won’t see you in the future, but I wish you all blessings on your future path!”

I lifted the ring I put on my finger.

teleportation ring.

It is a magic tool obtained by completing an achievement in the past.

The effect is literally teleportation.

A ring that allows me to go to the town I passed through in the past.

Seeing that, the complexion of the three turned blue like the sky.

“Wait!! Wait! Wait! Let’s talk about us…!!”

Knights, archers, and warriors.

everyone got me

“Where can I touch you?”

i knocked them off

Was it because of the pain of being hit by an outstretched hand, or the shock of being rejected?

otherwise

Maybe it’s because I, who had always smiled and accepted their pampering, erased my smile and stared at them as if they were worthless.

The faces of the three women were distorted with anxiety.

“Now! Goodbye!!”

I saw their eyes flicker the moment the magic was cast.

I could see it coming to catch me again.

So I was sure.

Obviously, this parting will hurt them.

By the way…

What does that have to do with me?

We weren’t even that happy together.
