The Character I Created Is Obsessed With Me

Helen Village was attacked, and a day has passed.

As soon as they heard the news that the demon army had attacked the village, the capital’s knights scrambled, but the situation had already been sorted out.

And the person who wiped out the Demon King’s army was just an ordinary adventurer.

An adventurer who started the request two months ago. Normally, it was normal to transfer to a lower level commission.

However, from the intermediate quest to the snowy mountain expedition quest. The record of defeating Snow Woman and the Four Heavenly Kings was unprecedented. It was a feat that even renowned adventurers could not accomplish.

However, it is impossible to welcome an adventurer of unknown origin. From the perspective of the Knights, we had no choice but to be wary of us.

And the king, why is that person appearing?

“I don’t know why the King wants to meet me.”

“You said you wanted to congratulate me. Since you defeated Ragnar, the 4 greatest blades, no one else, there is no shortage of receiving the ball.”

On the surface, it was a plausible reward. However, I knew that it was just a bright apricot.

‘Probably trying to recruit him as a soldier for the Knights.’

Appoint adventurers with good performance or skill as knights to serve the country.

The same was true of the man right in front of me. Max is a commoner and adventurer who has risen to the rank of knight commander.

However, when you face the reality of the knights, you realize that they are all just bait.

“I will be honest. I do not want to join the Templars.”

Despite my answer, Max nodded his head calmly. He had no displeasure or displeasure at all. Rather, he understood my choices.

“You must know the rumors about the Knights.”

He nodded at Max’s words. As he said, the knights’ notoriety was self-evident.

The salary was mere pittance, all merit was taken away, and there was no freedom. There were many unnecessary restrictions, including arbitrary instructions and interference.

The reason why skilled adventurers did not join the knights was simple. This is because there is no benefit to be gained by becoming a knight.

During the first playthrough, I accepted Max’s offer and joined the Knights. Since then, the main character has been active as a knight of the kingdom.

At the time, I was obsessed with the female knight character, so I just joined the knights with selfishness. Even at the time of the offer, it was the second half of the game, so there was little time to be treated badly.

However, things were completely different now.

‘This would be difficult.’

The brand of the goddess Erina and I have. Kayla’s body. Even Celica’s treatment. There were too many reasons not to join the Templars now.

And remembering how the main character was treated in the first episode, he didn’t want to go through it again.

When it was revealed that there was a goddess’ protection, the main character was forced to make endless requests and serve. He always had to be on the front lines and lead the people.

At first, Max was a little better because he defended the main character’s group, but after he died, he had to endure a lot of bad treatment.

Therefore, the situation of becoming a knight must be avoided. Even if you catch a hogu, it’s like being caught firmly.

As if he knew that my complexion was getting worse, Max calmly began persuading me.

“I know about the notoriety of the Templars. I can anticipate how you will be treated.”

“…”

“But I promise you one thing. If you join the Knights under my command, I promise you a higher salary and freedom than others.”

While playing the game, the character Max belonged to the good. He was well respected in the Knights and his personality was not bad.

There were quite a few soldiers who remained for him while enduring the poor treatment of the kingdom.

Although it met such a miserable end.

“Sorry, but I have no intention of joining the Knights.”

I’m grateful for Max’s proposal, but I couldn’t accept it. It is not simply a matter of calculating the balance. He could never go in, even for the sake of his comrades.

“But I have no choice but to obey the King’s orders.”

The fact that the king allowed an audience directly meant that I was appointed to the Knights Templar.

Max was in trouble as well. Even if he had to forcefully drag me along, he had to follow my orders.

It wasn’t me and Max who broke the tension.

“Excuse me for a second.”

The person who opened the door to the interrogation room was a relationship he hadn’t seen in a long time.

Blue hair. Confident gait and flashy attire. She is a tall woman with a great body.

“Yulia?”

Temporary Commissioner of the Capital City. She came to Helen Village directly from Julia.

“You…”

Max looked at Yulia and swallowed her saliva. Unlike Yulia, who had a relaxed expression, Max’s expression hardened.

The two, who seemed to have already met each other, exchanged bows. Looking at the subtle atmosphere, I had a feeling that it was not a good relationship.

“It’s been a while. Knight Commander.”

“…Why are you here?”

Like Max said, I couldn’t figure out why Yulia was here. Was there at least a reason for her to come all the way here?

And there was a girl following her.

“Colin.”

“It’s been a while. Seohyun!”

Colin looked at me and waved her hand. She was glad to see her bright smile after a long time.

He probably followed Yulia. If she followed her, she was one of the reasons Yulia came here.

‘You came to see me.’

It seems that you have already heard the news that I defeated Ragnar. Otherwise, there was no reason to come directly to the interrogation room.

Like Colin, Yulia looked at me and waved her hand with a broad smile.

“It’s been a while.”

“Yes. I didn’t expect to meet you here.”

As Yulia and I talked like we were friendly, Max’s expression hardened.

“Have you met each other before?”

“Yes. He’s a fairly famous adventurer in the capital, so there’s no way I wouldn’t know.”

Yulia sat down on a chair at the table casually and left her smile with her arms crossed. When she appeared, her tension melted away.

Max tried to kick her out as if he didn’t like her, but Yulia just laughed at her and she didn’t even budge.

Hagiya, even though Erina openly sprinkled her own flesh, she was the kind of person who didn’t budge. There was no way I could just step back like this.

“Do not enter the interrogation room without permission. I am on official duty now.”

“I didn’t come here for personal reasons either. I have come to inform you of the King’s message.”

At her words, Max shook his head as if it were absurd.

“What do you mean?”

“The King said he would accept Seohyun and his colleagues into the Knights.”

“Yes. So I came here myself…”

“I’m sorry, Commander-in-chief, but it has become something that never happened.”

At Yulia’s words, Max’s face showed embarrassment. What do you mean out of the blue? I don’t know what the plan was, but it didn’t seem like a lie.

Even if I didn’t know how the situation was going, I knew that Yulia was trying to help me.

“After the knight commander departed for Helen Village, I applied for an audience with the king.”

Meeting the king directly. Even if it was temporary, it seemed that the commissioner had considerable power.

“The King reversed his order. Seohyun will be a member of the Adventurers League instead of the Knights.”

Max’s face wrinkled at her words. I, who had been listening quietly, looked at Yulia in bewilderment.

League of Adventurers. A group of adventurers created at the request office. I know that when you walk the path of an adventurer or mercenary, not a knight, you receive a recruitment offer.

In the first place, I chose to join the Knights, so I didn’t know much about the Federation. And even after coming to this world, it’s the same. Max also protested with a shocked expression.

“The Adventurers League? I have never heard of such a group.”

“Of course. I made it myself yesterday.”

As if not understanding, Max shook his head. But when he saw the document Colin pulled out, he ran his forehead and swept it away.

The document bore the King’s signature and seal. As long as it wasn’t faked, it meant that everything Yulia said was true.

“What the hell is the king thinking…”

“Knight Commander. Be careful what she says. You don’t intend to disobey the king’s orders, do you?”

“I have no intention of doing that. However, if the order changes like a taffy, I don’t know which beat to match.”

“Anyway, Commander, don’t worry anymore. From now on, I will be in charge of Seohyun-nim’s safety.”

Yulia stood up as if she had nothing more to say. And she looked at me and she grinned.

“Let’s go. I have too many things to say.”

I left the bow to Max and got out of the interrogation room. Still bewildered, he couldn’t even accept my greetings.

He was a pitiful human being in many ways, but he couldn’t help it. I entered the Knights on my own, so it must be self-sufficient.

“Seohyun. Are you okay?!”

As soon as I left the interrogation room, Erina greeted me. Looking around her, her soldiers were looking at her with a tired look, and she was fidgeting.

It seems that while I was interrogated, there was quite a stir.

The same was true of Celica and Kayla, who followed her. He was watching me with a worried expression.

“Don’t worry. Nothing happened.”

“Really? Didn’t that man say something strange?”

“Yes. Let’s go for now.”

Erina glanced at her interrogation room as if she was not relieved by my answer. Inside, Max was still holding her head.

And Erina’s face as she looked at him was filled with disgust.
