I Became the Hero of the Warrior Party

16 – Episode 14: You f*cking Raceist? – One

Many people live in the world.

From a narrow point of view, it can be divided into villages or regions, and from a broad point of view, it can be divided into countries or continents.

Even in that small town or region, people with different skin colors, languages, or ideas live together in the present world.

In order to live tactfully in such a world, I want to have values that respect and care for others, refrain from ostracizing others, and do not belittle them.

By the way, this is not a request.

It’s a warning in advance that if you don’t live like this, you’ll be screwed like I am now, so heed it.

If you don’t know anything else, you must never say the word ⸺ in front of the Dark Elves.

Never, even if you’re being threatened with death if you don’t tell the real side.

I’d rather just bite my tongue and die.

Whatever happens, don’t just say that.

If you said that…

***

We are on our way to the village of Leitel, which lies beyond the Great Forest in a wagon.

Kyoko kept fiddling with the necklace in a smiling state, wondering what she liked so much, and Rin was looking at Kyoko as if she was cute.

“Is that necklace that good? As a small country, you are content with small things.”

“Oh no! not very good! Gina’s eyes are terrible wwwwww”

Kyoko suddenly flinched at Rin’s question, then answered her with a serious expression. Although they talk like that, it was fortunate that they seemed to be friends.

Falling into this world, the only people to rely on were each other who was summoned at the same time, so it was very sad.

“So, the place we are currently heading to is Leitel Village… … Also, the population of the village is huge enough to match the size of the city. Local specialties include… ”

Kevin has been talking to us.

Well, you can roughly say it’s a f*cking big town, but if you look closely, Kevin is the type to talk a lot.

Fermi said he liked that and looked at him with a pale face, but I still couldn’t understand. How much love can you think of such boring words as good?

The power of love seemed greater than it seemed.

As we headed for our destination while listening to the explanation for a long time, the sun had already set and dusk was falling on the ground.

So, in the middle of the Great Forest, we started preparing for camp by building a bonfire and preparing meals.

…

Kevin and his party, who had amply replenished their energy with a meal that soothed their hunger from the long trip, were sitting together in front of a bonfire and warming up.

“Have you ever heard of such a ghost story?”

Velia suddenly started talking about ghost stories in an attempt to change the atmosphere. Coincidentally, I was also bored, so I became interested.

“There are rumors that sometimes travelers disappear in this great forest where we are standing.”

Seeing Velia lowering her voice and creating a terrifying atmosphere, I unknowingly swallowed dry saliva and began to fall in love with the story.

“It is said that the shadows of the night, hidden in the dark, catch travelers like us who make bonfires and camp without even knowing mice or birds.”

“Wwwww, who knows the level of a medieval person who believes that such a thing exists in a world that is not scary at all.”

Kyoko laughed and said as if it didn’t matter.

Well, there is no such thing as a realistic shadow at night.

As usual in ghost stories, it must have been passed down as a result of being inherited by a beast or demonic beast.

“Why is Rin? Is it because you’re scared?”

“No… I felt something ominous…”

Rin continued to look around with a worried expression on her face.

To be honest, I hadn’t felt uncomfortable about something since a while ago, but after hearing this story, I kept feeling strangely strange.

That eerie feeling, as if someone was watching us.

“Kris! Is a man who is only shuddering at these ghost stories! How pitiful!”

“What are you talking about…! When I was shaking…”

“Oh, is your voice shaking? Aren’t you really scared Chris?”

Raymond and Velia continued to laugh and throw jokes at Chris as if they were having fun making fun of him.

Chris was definitely equipped with a reaction optimized for teasing, so it seemed like he was often teased on a regular basis.

Why, even among friends, there are people who react funny when you make fun of them.

Chris was just like that.

“I feel sorry for Chris, so let’s do that.”

Kevin laughed haha and stroked the small Chris’ head roughly. The atmosphere heated up even more thanks to Chris who pushed Kevin’s arm out of anger, telling him not to treat him like a child.

The time when I was in full bloom.

“Ugh!”

Raymond, who had been laughing for a moment, began to fall to the ground with a shriek.

“what!”

Embarrassed, we ran to Raymond to check on his condition. A very thin needle was deeply embedded in the nape of his neck.

The attack didn’t stop there, and following Raymond, Chris, Velia, Fermi, and Kevin were all dying helplessly from an anesthetic needle that flew from somewhere.

f*ck something is obviously wrong.

This must be a very dangerous situation.

I looked around, but in the deep darkness, I could only hear the cries of grass insects, and no human figures were visible.

“Chop! elusive…”

“Joo Hyuk! It’s behind…”

To make matters worse, even Kyoko and Rin were hit by an unknown enemy and fell forward and lost consciousness.

I took out the knife from my waistband and looked around vigilantly. The bushes behind them were shaking with a rustling sound.

Turning my back and immediately taking a response stance, I walked slowly and approached the front of the bush. I quickly kicked the area with my foot, but no one was there.

Just then, footsteps were heard from the left.

Oops thoughts began to circulate in my head.

‘Trickery!’

This is definitely a trick!

If I don’t respond quickly, I’ll be beaten too.

Thinking so, I quickly turned around.

However, contrary to my thoughts, my untrained body did not keep up with my thoughts, and in the end, a thin needle was deeply embedded in the nape of my left neck.

Suddenly, I felt a tingling sensation and my legs trembled.

Losing his sense of balance, he collapsed on his side due to his trembling vision.

“f*ck…foot…”

I tried to get up somehow, but I could feel my body gradually getting weaker.

“Why do you have such a good sense of the human subject?”

In the dim light of the blazing bonfire, the figure of the person who attacked us was reflected. The culprit was not alone. Soon after, another person appeared from behind.

No, it wasn’t a person in the first place.

Those pointed ears were clearly proof that they were not human.

“Have the humans finally turned? How dare you come into our territory?”

“What’s wrong with us? It’s good because the number of slaves is increasing.”

“Kuh, now that I think about it, that’s also the case.”

The effect of the anesthetic needle gradually blurred consciousness.

The effect of the medicine turned so quickly that my head felt throbbing.

The last thing I saw before my vision blacked out completely was the reflection of the lights in the campfire, their creepy eyes.

Leaving behind them muttering ghastly words, I lost my mind and collapsed.

Having barely come to my senses, I lifted my heavy body and began to look around.

A huge cave, the entrance to which was blocked by barricades made of stone, making escape impossible. All around me were Kevin, Rin, and Kyoko, who hadn’t woken up yet.

And beside him, there were three people staring at me. I couldn’t see it well because it was dark, but I could definitely feel that it was watching me.

Ignoring those who silently watched me, shaking the bars, and even kicking them, I tried my best to get out of here somehow.

“Arthur. It’s a bar made of hardening stone, but it won’t break if a human puts a little effort into it.”

A woman who had been watching for a while walked out in front of the bars and spoke to me.

For a moment, I felt something out of place.

It was because both of her ears stood up pointedly in the moonlight.

Since she looked similar to the people who kidnapped us here, I started to slowly back away, wary of her.

“you are… ?”

“Ah, don’t worry man. It’s different from those dark elves. we are high elves I was caught in the same situation as you, unlucky.”

At her words, a female elf and a male elf who came to her side nodded their heads. Seeing as they too were imprisoned here, it didn’t seem false.

I let my guard down and looked at them.

“How do I get out of here…”

“I can’t get out.”

“yes…?”

“I can’t get out.”

Without waiting, I asked the main point right away.

Seeing her stern reply, I suddenly started to get angry.

“No, if you’re caught too, you should think about escaping somehow. Why are you so negative…”

I pointed out her answer and said it bluntly.

Then she let out a deep sigh and began to speak.

“I didn’t say anything. Do you know how long I and the boys have been here? Do you know how long I’ve been in this dog-like place?”

“How can I…”

“f*ck it, it’s been a year and four months. Do you think we haven’t tried to escape? I gave up because I couldn’t do anything. But what about a green tree leaf-like pup that was caught less than a day ago? Don’t think negatively Do you really want to go behind?”

Her companions barely calmed her down and pulled her away from me as she grabbed me by the collar and spat out harsh curse words that didn’t go well with her pretty face.

“Hite! Stay classy! The chieftain’s daughter shouldn’t be so vulgar! Scratches on your honor!”

“f*ck the chieftain’s daughter! Rina, tell me! Have you come to save the baby? Does it matter to me whether the reputation of a nobleman who hasn’t peed his nose for over a year is damaged or broken?”

“calm down. You must have something planned. I hope you never forsook us.”

“Kurun, do you know that your f*cking head is full of flowers? f*ck we’ve already been abandoned!”

By the time they were arguing for a long time, the sound started waking people up one by one. After hearing all the explanations from Heite, we started to be engulfed in a great shock.

The reason why the dark elves kidnapped us.

That is, they kidnapped us as slaves to cover the lack of labor force.

Raymond, who was listening to the story, seemed to be very humiliated that he, a tanker, had lost consciousness with only an anesthetic needle.

And then Raymond shouted in a voice mixed with hate.

“You nigger elves! Send us out right now… ”

“Shut up! You stupid human! If you bring that word out of this town!!!”

Hastily covering Raymond’s mouth, Hite freaked out. Even the faces of Riina and Kurun watching him were completely white.

At that moment, the moonlight that was shining on us was covered by clouds, and the light disappeared for a short time in the whole village, and it became completely dark.

And when the clouds clear again, and the surroundings barely come into my eyes.

I felt like I was about to pass out.

That’s probably what everyone who was trapped in the cave felt that way.

On the other side of the bar, where no one had been before.

As the moonlight illuminated the surroundings, countless groups of Dark Elves appeared.

All of them were looking at us with wide-eyed, appalling expressions.

“Who said nigger now?”
