I Was Kicked Out of the Party Even Though the Hero Is My Girlfriend

41 – A warrior without divine protection

***

My first impression of the thief was that he seemed like a mischievous person.

“Loto Ivar. That is my name.”

He was wearing a dagger on each side of his waist.

His body was so thin that it could easily pass through a chimney, and his jawline was sharp.

He was a young man with a playful look in his eyes.

“I followed the warrior party until right before I came here. A good map and a good treasure chest. Traps can be detected at a glance. It’s awkward to introduce myself after a long time. To put it simply, I applied to play and eat for the rest of my life with the eastern expedition.”

Kiera, wearing light armor with an attractive short skirt, looked at him intently.

“What was the name of the hero from the previous party?”

“I can’t speak.”

“why?”

“As the next question, it is obvious that I will ask why you left the warrior party. I can’t tell you why I left.”

Jerica, the sorceress standing behind Kiera, stepped forward.

“Then tell me why you left.”

It was a woman with curly brown hair.

She is about 170cm tall, and her strong thighs and calves were exposed through the open-sided robe skirt, exuding a lot of sexiness.

The robe she was wearing was in harmony with sky blue and white, emphasizing her voluptuous breasts.

She looked at the thief, Lotto, as if having fun.

“Is that a face you’re dying to talk about?”

“If you listen to it, you will be amazed. There is no such thing as a dead end.”

Roto used both hands and chattered excitedly.

“There was a day when the warrior stayed out because of busy business. That night I woke up and left my room to go to the bathroom. Suddenly, I hear a woman moaning in the next room.”

“The story is too corny.”

Jerica frowned slightly and shook her head.

“Are you making it up?”

“Really, really. I swear I am telling the truth.”

“Hey Jerica, let’s listen to the end.”

Suddenly a male voice was heard.

It was the Holy Knight Dinberg.

He stood with his arms crossed, leaning against the wall.

With a rectangular face, he seemed to be secretly anticipating the thief’s next story.

“Now, wait a minute. I will be out.”

Priest Inani stood up.

With a shy face, she opened the door and went outside.

Inside, besides Kiera’s new companions, the Duke of Toledo sat at his desk and listened, and his eldest son Joseph stood by.

Today, Lotto, who became a new member at the recommendation of the Duke of Toledo, exchanged greetings with his colleagues.

“Anyway, I heard a woman moaning in the next room. That room was the room of the hero’s girlfriend, the saintess. Why is the holy person like this? So I did something like this and quietly opened the door to check it out. On the bed, our party porter was entangled with the saintess. Isn’t the sky scary? The two of them were doing it. At that moment, I wanted to be scolded. I had a hunch that sooner or later the party would break up. The next day, I went straight to the warrior and politely told him that I would leave the party. The reason for the withdrawal is here. No big deal, right? Please don’t worry, it’s not an accident.”

Dinberg laughed.

“Didn’t you tell the hero that the saintess and the porter were playing around?”

“I didn’t. Even if you talk about a party that will break anyway, it will almost certainly break and I will be one step ahead. The only thing I could think of was to get out of here before the party atmosphere went public.”

“The porter had a passionate affair with the hero’s girlfriend, the saintess… It’s cliché, but it’s fun to talk about infidelity. What is the name of that hogu hero?”

Lotto’s eyes widened at Jerrica’s question.

“Look! I knew it! If I go around talking about the hero’s name in the neighborhood, he will feel ashamed and come to kill me with a grudge. Even if I die, I cannot speak.”

“Well, there’s nothing more shameful than having a woman stolen by a porter.”

Dinberg laughed and scratched the itchy back of his neck.

“I still wonder who it is. Just tell me the first letter of your name or give me a hint.”

“Do you think I am stupid? There are only five warriors in the world, but if you know the first letter of their name, you will know it.”

Lotto changed the subject before people became more obsessive.

He looked at Keira with curious eyes.

Currently, the most interested in this place was her heroine.

“Who is the god the hero serves?”

“god… ?”

“Every hero has a god. The god of wisdom, the god of swords, the god of storms. Who is the god Kiera-sama worships?”

“… … ”

Kiera hesitated, bewildered by the unexpected question.

‘Should there be something like that.’

Joseph laughed and shouted.

“Our Kiera will serve a greater god than Bonama and other warriors!”

Jerica tilted her head.

“Come to think of it, have you ever seen Kiera praying to God?”

Dinberg nodded as well.

“I don’t think I’ve seen it either.”

“Ugh? Could it be that there is no god to worship?”

Lotto was talking back and forth to the point that it was annoying to Kiera.

“The source of a hero’s power is a god, but Kiera-sama doesn’t even have a god to worship, so how does she have power?”

The Duke of Toledo, who had been listening quietly until then, opened his mouth.

“Coming to think of it, I think I heard that the hero receives a revelation from God every day. Sir Keira. Are there really no gods to serve?”

When the duke was added, Kiera became very nervous.

Rolling her eyes here and there, she immediately looked at everyone as she clenched her fists as if she remembered something.

“I have a God I serve. His name is Velkran-sama.”

“What is Velc?”

“What is Velc?”

“Belk… what?”

Everyone seemed to be hearing it for the first time.

“Looks like you’re not very famous.”

Loto has arrived.

“Or did you make it up in haste?”

He laughed mischievously right in front of his eyes, but he looked hateful in Kiera’s eyes.

I kind of wanted to let him know.

There are people who don’t have patience and self-control, so play around with each other.

***

A little more than a month had passed since the king of Basilite Kingdom also left Nofha.

The journey went smoothly.

No matter which village or which city, people welcomed the expedition with joy.

Among them, there were nobles who supported the expedition to the Eastern Continent, and there were nobles who requested to defeat the demons that appeared nearby.

But today was special.

One of the forts he was going to stay for a while was completely occupied by the devil.

The lord of the castle, the knights, and the soldiers all turned into hideous demons.

“It’s awful.”

The Duke of Toledo immediately ordered the recapture.

So the expeditionary force halted their march and camped in front of a fortress surrounded by a strong wall.

It was shortly before the attack.

Lotto appeared in front of Kiera, who was heavily armed with silver-white armor, and smiled mischievously.

“They spent a lot of time showing themselves praying for the past few days.”

“… … ”

Kiera squatted in place, ignoring his words.

I stretched out my hands and inspected the seams of the metal boots I was wearing.

Lotto continued with his gaze fixed on her protruding chest from being crushed by the breastplate.

“But why are you so clumsy at prayer… The prayer of the warrior I saw was not like that.”

“Everybody has their own way.”

“it’s okay. it’s okay. I’m not talking about anything. It’s just that I feel good. It’s clear Kiera isn’t serving God. However, I do not intend to make fun of you as a warrior without a foundation.”

Kiera glared at him with hot blue eyes.

“Watch your mouth.”

Lotto raised both hands and stepped back.

he smiled slyly.

“Whoa, calm down. I’m just here to cheer To be honest, I want to quickly become friends with the warrior. I learned that hugging is the best way to get close quickly. There’s a saying that you grow fond of fighting, right?”

“Is your house living well?”

“Why are you asking that all of a sudden?”

“I can’t seem to buy it because the bragging doesn’t come out right away.”

After finishing checking her armor, Kiera laughed and stood up.

I grabbed the sword I had put on the table and walked out of the camp.

“Even if you look at it like this, the money saved is quite good!”

Lotto shouted from behind, but she pretended not to hear and walked forward.

The path led to the main gate of the fortress, covered with evil energy.

In this day and age, if you have a hero in your army, your siege strategy will be dramatically simplified.

The hero first penetrated into the castle, subdued numerous enemies with amazing power, and then the remaining remnants were wiped out by friendly troops who entered later.

“Whoa.”

Kiera took a deep breath and ran straight toward the castle gate.

After running a distance of about 100 meters, it leaped vigorously into the air.

As if flying in the sky, he jumped over the high walls of the castle.

Upon landing in the castle, knights who turned into zombies and grotesque demons were infested.

She calmly drew her sword.

Soon, a powerful whirlwind blew through the castle.

After a while, the gate that had been firmly closed opened wide, revealing Kiera.

Josef, the eldest son of the duke, raised his sword high and shouted.

“Awesome!”

A party of warriors and about a hundred soldiers rushed into the castle.

“I will look for the lord of the castle who has turned into a monster!”

After shouting that, Lotto went around looking for a room with a safe.

Finally, he found a room full of gold and silver treasures.

“Fuck Awesome!”

He hurried into the room, selected only the small treasures, and stuffed them into his pockets.

“Don’t you feel like working only when you have a good side income?”

In the midst of giggling and laughing, I heard the creak of a door.

“What are you talking about?”

Without thinking, he looked back and froze on the spot.

Kiera was watching from the door with an expressionless expression.

“Ahh. this is… ”

He hurriedly made an excuse, but he scratched his head and confessed honestly.

“I was trying to get it secretly. I know. I won’t do it in the future.”

After taking out all the treasures in his pants pockets, he was about to leave the room, passing Kiera.

A blade suddenly came in from behind and pierced his chest.

“Kuuk… !”

“You talk a lot unnecessarily.”

With Kiera’s cold voice, the blade pulled away.

Lotto collapsed on the spot.

He died with his eyes open.

Kiera dragged his corpse out of the room and threw it at the demons roaming in front of him.

***

As the day dawned, a bright light fell on the fort.

Everywhere was full of dead bodies of zombies and demons.

When Lotto was nowhere to be seen, people usually assumed he had died in battle.

“It seems that he only lived with his mouth, but he had no skills.”

Wizard Jerica smirked.

I wasn’t too close with Lotto to be sad.

At her words, Dinberg nodded as well.

“I must have laughed at the warrior party. A warrior party is a place where even a hero is kicked out if he doesn’t have the skills.”

“Let’s all pray for him.”

Priest Inani put her hands together to express her condolences.

Kiera, who had been watching the scene, looked back into the distance and smiled quietly.

I had no desire to mourn.

He hated him for being openly exposed as a warrior who did not serve God.

After a brief mourning, Dinberg moved on.

“Leave the cleaning of this place to the dukes and let’s go back to the barracks. Hungry. I need to have a good meal to move in the afternoon.”

“Where is your next destination?”

“East before.”

“Isn’t that a city close to the eastern continent? So you’re almost out of our western continent? that is great!”

As Dinberg and Jerica chatted away, Kiera inadvertently recalled Lucy’s words.

‘When the warrior’s power disappeared before. I made a hypothesis, but maybe it has a deep relationship with Maru? If we forget each other, we lose our strength, but if we think of each other, we regain our strength. This is the first hypothesis. The second hypothesis is that the strength of the warriors disappears when they are far from each other. This is because of the distance… ‘

Could it be because of the experience of losing the hero’s power?

Suddenly, in fear, I pulled out my hair.

Her hair was still sporting a dazzling silver color.

I was relieved and smiled.

“Lucy, you are wrong.”

She threw a strand of hair she was holding onto the floor and left.

The hair that fell to the floor quickly lost its strength and turned black.
