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

81 – Sudden Invasion (1)

***

“I’m going to go and write a letter to my mother right now!”

The time when Maru met Galatea for the first time.

Maru got angry and went into the palace first.

The sword goddess Hergantia, left alone, hurriedly tried to follow him, but was blocked by the crowd of illusions and missed it.

“What can I do… ”

Throughout the journey, there was no one he made friends with except for Maru, so it was no different than being a lost child.

She did not know what to do, but once followed the king’s procession into the castle.

It was even more difficult when I entered the introspection.

Because I didn’t know where to go.

“Hey there! Who walks around the palace wearing a hood!”

A guard came over, took off his hood, and widened his eyes.

“From my hair to my eyes and my skin, everything is white… ? Who are you?”

“This is Maru-nim’s group. Do you know where Maru-nim has gone?”

“Wa, were you a member of the Crown Prince’s company? I’m sorry, but I’m at the bottom, so I don’t know where the high-ranking people are staying… ”

After parting with the guards, Hergantia wandered around alone.

The palace was vast.

There were six large palaces and dozens of annexes.

The distance between buildings ranged from at least 500 meters to 1 kilometer.

“Where should I go… ”

It’s so wide that I don’t even know where I’m standing now.

Only servants roam around, but Maru can’t be in a place like this, so maybe he came to the wrong place…

When he grabbed a servant and asked for directions, he was horrified at his own appearance and was busy running away.

“A cow, a cow doesn’t know anything!”

Suddenly, the day was over.

As the stars rose in the night sky, Hergantia crouched down on the grass in the garden.

“I will regard this as one of my trials for my sins. It must be walking the path of atonement… ”

That night she slept outdoors to the sound of bugs chirping.

My stomach rumbled frequently.

“Follow!”

Kiera crawled across the floor and followed the old woman.

When I came out of the house, sand and small stones were stuck in my palms and knees.

When Kiera got sick and couldn’t crawl properly, the old woman took a cane.

slap!

“Aren’t you coming soon?”

“Ba, it hurts because of the stones on the floor.”

“Walk with patience! If you get a callus, it won’t hurt!”

When the old woman forcibly pulled on the leash and Kiera was unable to walk in pain, the angry old woman beat Kiera like a dog.

“walk! walk! I have to go for a walk!”

“Aww! Big! Ouch!”

There was no place on Kiera’s body that hadn’t been hit with a cane.

The whole body was swollen red.

Eventually, the old woman gave up the walk, went back into the house, and ordered her to make breakfast.

“I’ve never done cooking before… ”

“This is a complete asshole!”

The old woman took the cane again.

slap!

slap!

“Wow!”

The blow continued, and later Kiera’s skin tore open and blood flowed out.

“You are starving!”

After the old woman finished eating alone, she entered a room and began to concentrate on her studies.

Meanwhile, Kiera curled up in a corner and wept.

“hurt… it hurts… ”

The cost of last night’s defeat was so great.

Will I ever be able to go outside again?

Despair was on his tear-stained face.

In the meantime, I tried several times to pull out the dagger stuck in my chest, but it didn’t budge.

The reason why I couldn’t use the hero’s power seemed to be because of the dagger.

“Come here.”

The door opened and the old woman beckoned.

Kiera wiped away her tears and crawled to the old woman on all fours.

The old woman held out a small bowl.

“Drink.”

“What is this… ?”

There was green water in the bowl.

It smelled bad.

“I’m going to do a human experiment on you. You came here for that.”

“Sir, I hate it!”

“What do you hate? Anyway, a bitch with no family dies today or tomorrow, but who knows? giggle Eat it up!”

The old woman forced an unknown liquid down Kiera’s throat.

“Coke! Coke!”

“He eats well. giggle.”

For an instant, my vision went dark.

When I woke up, it was already evening.

“uh… ?”

I stood up and looked around.

I drank an unidentified water and lost my memory.

What happened during those few hours of fainting?

The old woman was nowhere to be seen.

“Coke!”

Cough came out.

I realized it only after inadvertently scratching my skin.

I had hives all over my body.

“Kyaah!”

My whole body was itchy.

I felt like I was going crazy with the stuffy feeling of being gently tickled with foxtail.

As I continued to scrape, ooze came out here and there.

“Sobbing… ! “

I burst into tears.

It was the first time I had ever been tortured by someone.

As the warrior’s power disappeared, he felt helpless.

There was nothing I could do.

More at readwn

Just like when you were sick as a child…

‘Anyway, a bitch without a family dies today or tomorrow, but who knows?’

Kiera gently clenched her fists.

“Why don’t I have a family… I have too.”

Maru was always by my side.

But since when?

I started to stay away from him.

It wasn’t from when we officially announced our breakup.

Long before that, the two had already fallen apart.

no, in the first place…

“ah… !”

It was only then that Keira realized.

That he had never loved Maru before.

‘Keera, how many children will we have?’

Maru tried to be a family, but he kept pushing him away, saying he was in the way.

I was mistaken that I could live a better life if I threw away Maru.

“The witch was right. I never had a family… ”

I blinked and thought blankly.

“Why me… Couldn’t accept Maru… ”

He repeated the words countless times while crouching on the floor.

I already knew the answer.

I knew it from the first time I met Maru.

Sick and poor, she desperately had to keep Maru by her side in order to survive.

The food he brought every day was the water of life to her.

helminth.

right.

He was a parasite that sucked the floor.

“It was so nice that it was easy to use. You do everything you ask me to do, so I only complain more… ”

clap.

The old woman who had gone out came back.

Kiera flinched and straightened her upper body.

The time of fear has come again.

she trembled

“Growl… Coul… What, what?”

Maru woke up rubbing his eyes.

“Oh, I must have fallen asleep.”

A musty smell stung my nose.

Currently, this place was in a warehouse where unused furniture was piled up.

After searching for the mirror of truth all morning, I fell asleep.

And as a result, the mirror of truth was held in his right hand.

“Whoops, good.”

I managed to find it attached with tape under an empty drawer.

“Be prepared, Galatea. I will reveal who you are.”

I shook my ass and got up from my seat.

By the time we got out, it was already early lunchtime.

“You slept a lot.”

Scratching the back of my head, I headed for a place where Galatea might be.

Afterwards, I met Benjaris and heard the absurd news.

“Are you sick?”

“… … ”

Venzaris was unable to speak due to the restraint, and instead the lady-in-waiting next to him answered.

“Last night, you suddenly felt ill and are in bed.”

“Don’t lie. Does it make sense that a normal person suddenly lies down?”

“majesty. You may not believe it, but it is true.”

“Take me to your room. I want to see it with my own eyes.”

“So, I’m sorry, but I can’t see you.”

“You’re my fiancé, but why is it impossible?”

When I looked at Venzaris with a determined face, she averted her gaze and lowered her head.

I can’t ask her anything because she’s on the fence.

He was very friendly when he was in the imperial palace, so he would answer questions well.

“Wow, Crown Prince!”

Oliver, who is doing administrative work in Maru’s office, hurriedly ran.

“Demons are invading! It is said that there is only the royal road!”

News of an unexpected invasion.

All the people in the palace were confused and started to move busily.

Maru hurriedly went out to the castle.

The king was also with me.

I was with the main ministers.

Audrey and Edward were also seen.

Everyone looked up at the sky with nervous eyes.

A huge castle floated in the sky outside the castle.

An ominous purple aura hovered around the Black Castle.

Maru frowned.

“The demon king is dead, who is it?”

As if to answer that question, someone’s voice echoed throughout the capital.

-I am the Dark Scion, Barbasus! Humans! If you want to live, obediently give up Hanmaru, the sixth hero who killed my father! If you resist, they will immediately unleash demons on your city and will horribly murder each one of you! Your city will be devastated and your land will become a land of death where no life can live forever!

Everyone looked back at the floor with puzzled expressions.

Audrey ran over and hugged him.

“Never give up. Even if you hand it over, I will follow you.”

“Audrey… ”

Maru continued to gaze at the sky while sweeping her back.

-I am a lord of terror and a merciful lord. give you time The deadline is this evening. If there is no answer until the sun disappears over the horizon, I will drag you all to hell. My condition is one. I will take one floor.

Afterwards, the king and other major ministers gathered in the audience room.

Everyone had serious faces.

“Did you come to avenge the demon lord? General. Can you estimate the number of enemies?”

“A castle of that size is believed to have accommodated an army of about 30,000. However, this is based on human standards. Some demons have small and bizarre body shapes, so it may reach 3 times as many as 30,000.”

“Wow, I’m scolded. There are not enough soldiers in the capital. We should hope for the support of the local lords, but time is running out… ”

The king tapped the armrest with his finger and looked at the floor.

smiled at him.

“Relax. They will not hand you over.”

“No, Your Highness.”

Maru said with determined eyes.

“I will fight them alone outside the capital. Trust me and leave it to me.”

Are there any stalkers like this who dare to attack your house without warning?

They only want one thing.

own life.

Even if Maru died, he vowed to die alone.
