chapter 1
1 – Prologue [November 29th]
f*ck…
I had a lot of fun reading an interesting work after a long time…
Writer Lee X Sae X…
The main character was NTRed in the final episode.
Without the NTR tag.
In other words,
The hero in the novel continued his harem life with party members while traveling to defeat the demon king, befitting the harem tag…
It was a novel about the travels of Saint Emilia, who promised to marry a warrior, Lydia, a sorceress and princess who quarreled over the position of her first concubine, and Iluen, princess of the elven kingdom.
In the latter half of the novel, the dashes of the party members, including Saint Emilia, are getting stronger, and eventually, they wear 19 gold and go to bed together, which is getting more and more interested in the readers…
The incident that shocked me happened in the finale.
The hero defeats the demon king,
He returned to the Empire, and on the day of the victory banquet, he was preparing to propose to Saint Emilia.
It was time to go to the banquet hall together, but when Saint Emilia did not appear,
The hero went to her room with a worried heart…
“Ahhhhh… More… A little more… Hahhhhh.”
A woman’s thin moaning sound came through the crack in the door.
The hero knew at once that the person behind that voice was Emilia.
And now that I know the identity of her partner who shares her love with her…
“Wow..! Suck..! hahahaha!!”
“Emilia… I think I’m going…!”
“hahahahaha…! hahahaha..! I… I also… Suck..! I think i will go Crown Prince…”
The brave warrior couldn’t hear the moment the two of them reached their climax on the spot,
I had to get out of there, only dropping the ring case I was holding on the floor.
It’s a story behind the scenes,
Princess Lydia, the sorceress, already had a fiancé in a neighboring kingdom.
Elf Illuen was also just trying to be at the party mixing her body with the hero for the sake of fame to become her next queen.
I didn’t have the slightest desire to marry a warrior of another race.
What these girls have done to the hero so far was just a way to avoid being kicked out of the hero’s party,
The hero was a pitiful protagonist who defeated the demon king alone, dreaming of a pink future without knowing what these girls were up to.
On the other hand, in the past, if a hero was retiring, he should have brought a bundle of money and told him not to leave.
I had to get out of the empire as if I was being kicked out without even receiving the severance pay I was supposed to receive while retiring.
The promised mansion… And the servants…
In this situation, everything that will fill the safe and even the statue that was supposed to be erected in front of the imperial palace has become nothing…
The hero who lost all of the saints Emilia, Lydia, and Illuen, whom he had experienced prenatal battles with and sometimes even loved, lost the meaning of life and became a half-dead man, walking aimlessly and walking again and again, and the novel came to an end.
*****
How many times have I wandered without losing everything…
The truth of this world that I learned after several suicide attempts at the precipice of life…
A hero defeats the demon king to save the world and reach a happy ending…
No…
It was a sad ending novel in which a warrior saved the world by defeating the demon king, then was abandoned by the party members and eventually suffered an NTR.
And I was a reader who watched the novel without an NTR tag, defenselessly exposed…
Just a few hours ago, I lost everything and waited for death. My head was filled with memories from my previous life, and I was able to know the truth of this world.
The hero and the demon king, the warrior party and the four heavenly kings, the holy sword and the demon sword…
And the hero who suffered NTR in the novel,
I am a person who came out of the writer’s imagination…
Three years later…
In the world of this novel, a day begins with waking up in the morning and cutting an ax to fill the firewood from the previous day.
This mountain, located in the northern part of the continent, was famous for its severe cold.
Fortunately, the cold was not a problem for me as there were plenty of trees to use as firewood.
Just…
After the NTR, the memory of the previous life came back and the mental damage continued,
I was mentally and physically exhausted enough to cause panic attacks whenever I thought of the saintess or former party members.
I was just living diligently, meditating day by day, hoping that all those memories would be forgotten.
Anyway, no one is looking for a hero on this continent, and the demon lord no longer threatens the human world…
After chopping all the firewood in the morning, we store it indoors again, and after that we prepare breakfast.
Even if it wasn’t the high-end food he ate often when he was an active soldier, he could enjoy a satisfying meal with salted meat he had hunted himself and old, hard bread.
Above all, how happy is it to not have a meal with those sluts?
Even now, when I think of them…
“Oops!!!!!”
I tried my best not to think of them before or after eating as much as possible as I rushed to the bathroom with vomiting.
But it wasn’t always this kind of impoverished life.
Sometimes I went down to the village to buy things I needed for my daily life.
Moreover, today we headed to the nearby village market to shop in advance for the upcoming heavy snow season.
The items I usually buy are dry bread that is easy to store for a long time or salt needed for salting meat.
Even this, as now, when the heavy snow season is approaching, the price of goods has risen, so it was not possible to buy it freely.
If I had known it would be like this, I would have come to buy it a little earlier…
At the time I was looking around the market feeling the high prices,
My eyes were drawn to a woman squatting in front of her inn with her black hood pulled over…
I couldn’t meet anyone I knew here, but somehow, the energy that emanated from her was definitely something I felt somewhere.
After ignoring it and looking around the market more and buying a full supply of bread and salt, a woman wearing a hood was squatting in front of the inn.
I didn’t know how to get out of bed even though it was evening as the sun was going down soon.
I don’t feel like I’m waiting for anyone…
I don’t look like a normal traveler by looking at his tattered clothes and sloppy appearance…
I don’t know why her energy keeps getting familiar.
“Ugh!! You’ve been doing this in front of our store since morning!”
In the end, the innkeeper, who was worse than her, came out with cold water and tried to drive her away by spraying her in her beggar outfit, but she couldn’t avoid it and threw it all over herself.
I wished she had moved to avoid it, but the owner seemed even more angry at the sight of her sitting stupidly splashed with water and even started kicking.
Puck!!
The owner woman, as big as a bear, fell out of her feet at her kicks, and her hood was taken off, and she was finally able to know her true identity.
“Oh, what is this!! Somehow, he said he was unlucky since morning!! A b*tch like this was in front of our store, so of course!! Rot! Can’t turn it off!!? Before calling the guards?”
Then she slowly raised her body and moved out of the vicinity of her warm inn to the center of her village where her cold wind blew …
I tried not to run into her, but all I could do was pass her as I sat in the middle of her on my way out of town.
“Sheesh… I’m in the same situation as you and I…”
She just wanted to pass by, but I talked to her about her.
Raising her head at my words, she has silver hair close to white and tan skin,
She hadn’t washed for a long time and her face was scruffy…
She was Kirr, a dark elf who was an officer in the Demon King’s army and the leader of the assassination team.
“Yo… Yo… Hero…?”
She and I had a really bad relationship, because of her, her one-year subjugation, which was supposed to end quickly, was delayed, and she even risked dying from poison she secretly drank in her food.
“You misunderstood the person.”
When Kir tried to recognize me, I said no and hurried out of town.
But…
I made a big mistake…
Like that, she, who seemed to be squatting down in the village, followed me out of the village, and she was chasing after me with a limp leg, probably injured somewhere.
How stupid…
I should have just pretended not to know and got out of town…
I pretended to know what I was doing, and only troublesome things happened.
I don’t want to get blood on my sword…
If I had left it alone in the village, it would have froze to death on its own at night…
I started climbing her mountain at her brisk pace so that she wouldn’t follow me, and the distance between her and me started to widen.
Yes..
I’d rather be in distress in the mountains…
Before it freezes to death at dawn anyway, it will become food for wild beasts…
After climbing a steep mountain road and arriving at the cabin, I put firewood in the fireplace to warm up the chilly house and started making a fire.
“Damn it…”
When I was warming up my frozen body while climbing up to the cabin,
I felt an energy similar to the energy I felt in the village, and swear words flowed from my mouth without my knowledge.
I slowly approached the window and looked at the front door. Kirr, wearing a hood, was squatting in front of the door.
Huh…
Let’s see how long it lasts.
Since this place is in the mountains, unlike the village, the cold is exceptional. No matter how physically gifted a Dark Elf is, it is a temperature that is enough to freeze to death as long as it has the same constitution as a human…
I’ll either freeze to death at the door or go back down to town…
Well… You might freeze to death on the way down, but…
Tonight, I made soup with beans I bought at the village market.
I’ve been living alone for the past three years and my cooking skills have improved, so I’ve been able to make delicious soup with only beans and salt.
And before I fall asleep, I sit in front of a warm fireplace, drink tea and read a book, and when I fall asleep, I can end my peaceful day…
“Mr. X.”
Since I was lying in bed to sleep, I had no choice but to wake up swearing…
This year, unlike previous years, the heavy snowfall came early and it was snowing outside,
I opened her door and stepped out of her and looked at her as she sat still squatting with her head in her lap.
“Ugh.. Like a double-headed man… Is there really any need to do a portrait in front of someone else’s house…”
Her breath is still there, but her hypothermia has already set in, and I have no choice but to carry her unconscious and come into her cabin.
