Hero, about that cruelty

The demon territory, Horrorbarch, had been occupied by the Kurtz’s kingdom since the demon king was defeated by Raul.

The King of Kurtz, who had pulled all the strings from the shadows, made the innocent demons look evil and invaded Horrorbach.

The demons that are the citizens of the of Horrorbach, received horrible treatment from the kingdom after losing the war. Torture, abuse, slave trade.

Today also in the town near the western border, demon hunting is carried out to obtain goods called slaves.

The captured demons are taken to the slave market, and there they are traded.

[Nooooo… ..! Let go…..!]

A demon girl was forcibly dragged from a house. Such a scene has become common since the defeat.

This is the third time this small town has encountered demon hunting. As the result of the men and women being taken away, even the children’s fall into the dirty hands of slave traders.

[Stop…..! Please don’t take my granddaughter!]

[Let me go! Grandmother! Grandma, help me!]

The girl grabbed the door asking her grandmother for help.

The old woman desperately clung to the slave trader, begging him not to take her granddaughter.

The merchant kicked that body of the old woman mercilessly.

[Ahh, Grandma… ..!]

[Shut up!]

[Ah!]

At that moment, someone hold the shoulder of the man who was pulling the girl from behind.

[Hey, don’t overdo it. There are customers who get noisy because they found injuries and stuff, so treat her with care]

The slave trader who looked back, looked at the figure of a young man who had spoke and took a deep breath.

[Hero-sama!]

The slave trader bowed his head as he held the girl aside.

That young man smiled as he waved his jet black cloak.

The man they called a hero looked around with a haunting smile.

[How many have been caught?]

[Yes. There are 6 women and 4 men]

[Hmm. I guess it’s fine for a desert town. Only old men and women remain. So we’re done here, we’re going]

At that moment, the old vampire whose granddaughter had been taken blocked their way.

[Hero… ..sama… ..Hero-sama, please!]

[Hey, old lady! Don’t go near Raul-sama!]

The girl’s grandmother clung to Raul’s leg in a desperate way, without listening to the slave trader.

[I don’t care what happens to me… ..! Please don’t take my granddaughter! She’s only six years old! She being turn into a slave is something… ..]

[You said it doesn’t matter what happens to you right?]

The hero stared at the old woman.

[Hahaha! Do not make me laugh! Instead of making money, it will only make me lose it!]

[Gyahahaha! It’s just like Raul-sama says!]

[You are too arrogant to think you could achieve that! You are not a woman, but a monster!]

The hero who laughed out loud, when he looked at her, he kicked the old woman’s face.

[Auhh… ..]

[Grandmother!]

The attack did not end with that blow. She was kicked several times, and blood overflowed from the old woman’s nose and mouth.

[Aguhh! Ugah!]

The old woman quickly became covered in blood and couldn’t stand up from the ground.

The girl seeing that, tried to stop him while she was very pale.

[Grandmother…..! Stop, I’ll go… ..! Please don’t punish my grandmother… ..!]

[Haa? Why is a demon giving me orders !?]

The hero laughed with an even worse face and ordered the slave traders.

[Hey, make her understand a bit. Don’t kill her]

[Hahaha! Understood!]

[N-Noooooo… ..!]

[Fuhahahahaha! It’s what you get for opposing humans!]

This time the girl was a victim of violence.

The old woman cried like a beast while on the ground.

Every time the slave traders heard a sound of despair, they laughed happier.

***

——At the same time, in the colosseum in the capital.

Now I am sitting in the special seat of the king, waiting for the beginning of the show that was prepared for me.

The king’s chair is very comfortable.

As I sank deep into the soft cushion and relaxed, beautiful women brought trays of drinks and fruits.

[This time the execution is in the colosseum at the suggestion of Raul-sama, His Majesty was very satisfied that he said “Yes, something really interesting occurred to him”]

While looking at the food, the king’s Retinue said it firmly.

Enjoying some sweet grapes, I spoke to him to kill time.

[It must be very boring to do the execution in the same place, right? First of all, that plaza has no steps, so it would be disrespectful to the audience behind. If you want to show an execution, the colosseum is the right place]

In the colosseum the audience seats are elevated, so it has a perfect place for everyone to see the show.

[But is it okay for me to have the king’s seat?]

[Yes. His majesty allowed it]

[Hmm. Good thank you]

As i licked my grape juice covered fingers, the retinue spoke.

[Raul-sama is our savior! The king also praised his great merit. Raul-sama is ours—–]

I slowly looked at the retinue.

[The what? I am your “thing”, something like that, right?]

[Hii… ..]

As i laughed and asked, the retinue turned pale.

[Well? Keep going]

[N-No… ..well… ..]

What are you scared of?

At that moment, the announcement of the beginning of the show was heard.

Thinking that it had finally started, several men being tied from behind were being dragged towards the colosseum.

There are approximately more than one hundred people. Everyone was shivering while their well-trained upper body was exposed.

They are the “Heroes” who burned several villages together with the general, but now they ended up that way.

And it’s funny to see that they are treated like sinners.

[–Good. I hope there are some great deaths. I want to see a lot of blood everywhere]

I had to drop my prey so I hope it’s exciting.

Supporting my cheek with my arm on the armrest of the chair, I was very excited about the beginning of the performance.

I want to translate advance chapters but sadly I’m can’t seem to find the motivation well I mostly blame it because of both work and school, or maybe I’m just really lazy oh well lol.
