Meet the hero!

After that, we did the same in the rest of the rooms. At first, Ada, who couldn’t hide her surprise taking someone’s life, but after a few times she no longer hesitated. Killing is the same as doing something bad. The more you stain your hands, the more you get used to it. In a good way, and in a bad way.

Ada, who given up of protecting her heart, and her eyes were so muddy when she saw the blood of the guards, she sometimes looked like she had an expression like being in a trance. The demons we rescued repeatedly wept and thanked, praising her. Did that feel good?

Drowning in the sense of justice by protecting the lives of the weak, instead of feeling guilty for taking the lives of the wicked. It’s like I’m seeing myself in the old days.

It is a dangerous act to seek external reasons for revenge, I once advised Ada that. But, that was a problem of the person himself, it would be a nuisance if I had to stop her here, so I saw Ada’s revenge with a straight face.

Behind us are the demons that have been released and healed by recovery magic. We made sure to give the demons a choice “Do you want to join in revenge or would you rather escape?” from the elderly to the children raised their fists with determination to follow us. How much hatred is in your hearts? It seemed that I had seen a certain charm of revenge, and it felt great.

[Punishment for humans!]

[Free the demons!]

[Let’s take back our stolen dignity!]

[Uohhhhh!]

The group of vengeful demons marched with angry eyes, spreading words of hatred. The steps overlapped, creating a background sound. This comforting chorus may have reached their ears.

—–And finally, we got to the deepest part of the facility.

[Allingham and Wendell are behind that door]

『Ahh, we finally arrived. Just when it was getting fun 』

[You really have bad taste]

I spoke with Ada, raising expectations.

『Now we’ll head to climax from here ~』

When Ada seemed to purse her lips, she opened the last door with both hands. The hall was quite large, capable of accommodating hundreds of slaves at a time. Allingham, Wendell and their complex facility executives line up there. In front of Allingham, two hundred demons were lined up like a wall. Apparently he was waiting in this room with the demons as a shield to face us.

[Well well well. I see you really came here while releasing all the demons]

Allingham spoke with a calm demeanor, but couldn’t hide his displeasure. His gaze pointed to the group of demons behind us several times. Having this amount of demons as an army gives a great impact. Although I do not intend to make them fight.

[Then, hero-chan. What do you want? You’re not going to have fun with those slaves are you?]

[I won’t let you treat them like toys anymore]

[What are you saying? It will be a problem if you do what you want, hero-chan]

Ada glared at Allingham and pointed her finger at him.

[Shut up! Your evil deeds are over!]

Uwaa… ..

How to put it, blurting out that line while putting a hand on my waist ……. It even makes me want to hold my own head. I don’t hate the playful attitude. But if you’re going to do it, do it in a smarter and more interesting way. This is more like a comedy act. Allingham looks scared, but Wendell at his side is laughing with his hand over his mouth. Yup, I don’t feel enough tension.

[Listen well, Allingham. I killed the guards by smashing their heads. You will also share the same fate]

[If you said so… ..]

[It’s time for my revenge. I will kill you all]

[H-Hmph! I see that you are very confident! But here we have the great wizard!]

Loosening his cheeks, Allingham looked at Wendell at his side. Wendell ignored Allingham’s gaze, and exploded as if he couldn’t bear it. Ada directed her gaze towards Wendell, her figure also reflected in my sight.

Dark skin with short light brown hair. Although he wears a white robe, you could see the muscles around him. That expression and confident demeanor, and thanks to his good facial features, he was very popular with women wherever he went.

[Hahahahah! This is a masterpiece!]

After laughing and squinting happily, Wendel looked at Ada. I know that expression well. That is what it shows when you are immersed with your thoughts. Then, strangely, nostalgia entered my chest. Well, Wendell didn’t change at all. I haven’t seen his figure since I was executed, but he made me feel like it was yesterday. It’s strange. The Wendell I saw in the royal capital was an illusion created by him, so it really has been a long time since I saw his real body.

But, this is a bit tricky. Rather than reconnect with Wendell, it reminds me of what happened to my old self. Ahh, I feel so ashamed that I want to roll on the floor.

Because I was convinced that garbage was my best friend. And unilaterally. Uwaa, I feel chills.

Ada, who doesn’t know about my inner conflict, gave Wendell an unpleasant look.

[What are you laughing at, Wendell?]

[Well, it’s very funny to see how you get too carried away, Raul —– no, would it be better to call you Raul’s imposter?]

[I-Imposter !? What does this mean!? Explain it correctly!]

Allingham who yelled, grabbed onto Wendell’s arm. Wendel gently pushed Allingham’s body away with a disgusted face. Why are those two flirting? Come on, Ada. They are underestimating you, you need to scare them more.

[I was expecting this from the beginning. I am the great magician you know? There’s no way I didn’t realize he was an imposter. Goodness, you really underestimate.]

Seeing Wendel laugh, I felt nostalgic. Yes, that’s how that man is. That habit of mingling with every conversation doesn’t change.

[I don’t care, just kill him at once! First of all, it’s your fault! You left him like nothing even knowing he was an impostor! You said there was a plan right? Then take responsibility!]

[Yes Yes. Okay, so stop yelling. Also, it was a lot of fun]

[This is not the time to be smiling! That guy plans to kill us!]

[So what? I only take care of that guy. I couldn’t say the same if it was the real one, but he’s Raul’s imposter after all]

As Wendell spoke, I taught Ada an attack spell.

『”Good. Raise your palm towards Wendell and cast the magic immediately 』

Ada nodded strongly, and according to my orders, she released the high-level magic.

Wendell could barely dodge it, with a smile that was still on his face. And because Wendell dodged it, the heads of the others exploded in return. But, that was no longer to cause a ruckus. Although Allingham was screaming.

For Ada it was a magic she can’t get used to, but don’t worry I already know that he could survive that. I mean, it would be a problem if he died with such an attack.

[Wait. What was that attack now?]

Wendell takes a step ahead of Allingham’s screams. It seems like he couldn’t keep laughing anymore.

[You shouldn’t have that magic power… ..! In order to unleash a magic attack like this, it’s like you’re the real one—–]

『Good, Ada. It is time to reveal our true identity 』

Ada looked up quickly, and with a triumphant face, spoke the words Wendell feared most.

[That’s right. I am not an impostor. What is in front of your eyes is the real hero Raul]
