I Was Kicked Out of the Party Even Though the Hero Is My Girlfriend

Chapter 20



20 – Joris’ Penance (1)

***

around lunch the next day.

Lucy was in deep contemplation in her room.

“I feel something. Does it feel like Kiera’s powers have returned since the mutt appears? When I didn’t have mutts, my strength was gone… Hmm. Do you want to be suspicious? But my senses, having lived as a wizard, are telling me that there is something.”

She stared blankly at the crystal ball, thinking about something else, and thumped the surface with her hand.

“Anyway, why isn’t this coming out? Did I make a mistake with the formula?”

If there is nothing wrong, Maru’s plan should be reflected.

Even after reciting the spell several times, the crystal ball remained silent.

“Mr. Lee. I must have installed it incorrectly.”

He hit the bed with his fist and left the room.

When I sneaked into Maru’s room, his door was wide open and the knights lined up in the hallway.

As I overheard it, it seemed like it was time for a morning meeting to discuss today’s schedule.

“Damn it, I have to come back later.”

Lucy frowned and left the place.

On my way to the restaurant for lunch, I heard the sound of people drinking and drinking in the building where the banquet hall was held yesterday.

“What, are you still doing it?”

Without thinking, I peered into the building through the window and found that only one table was set with alcohol and food in the clean, spacious hall.

Prince Edward and the duke’s eldest son, Joseph, were still drinking.

“I lost… ? Say you lost… Hiccup!”

“I didn’t… Is this? Hiccup! Please take it to you as soon as possible… ruler.”

“Oops. I can drink more Please follow me.”

Both of them were swaying their upper bodies with their eyes half-closed, distraught.

Lucy looked away and clicked her tongue.

“I don’t know what drinking is good for. Like fools.”

Afterwards, they gathered together with the warriors who had overslept at the restaurant and had a meal together, but Yoris did not eat in front of the richly set table, just stirring around with a spoon.

Natalie, who was worse off, had a temper.

“What are you doing to spoil the taste? If you don’t want to eat, go out.”

Lloris laughed.

“You guys are not vigilant, which is a big deal. If there is poison in these delicious-looking dishes, why are you eating them so deliciously?”

“Why is there poison?”

“Why are you there? Can’t think of anyone to put in? Remember me?”

Kiera just ate in silence.

Poison does not work on warriors.

Lucy stopped chopping and looked at Yoris.

“If that’s the case, you shouldn’t have eaten at the banquet yesterday.”

“At that time, there were many people who wanted to taste it beforehand, right? We are alone now.”

Natalie slammed the table.

“Which bastard poisons his food? Who is the expected pup?”

“Who are you?”

Lloris narrowed his eyes.

“This is Maru. Don’t you think you’re going to take revenge on us?”

***

In the afternoon, Lloris put on his priestly clothes and walked out of the palace and through the city.

He looked around and smiled happily.

“It’s a really nice city. I like it. It looks good for meditation.”

I was walking on the road with my hands behind my back thinking of visiting the temple in the city.

Suddenly, an old woman came and held out a piece of paper and asked for directions.

“How do you get here?”

“It’s my first time in this city, so I don’t know if you ask.”

He was about to pass by, but the grandmother grabbed him by the hem of his dress.

“I will reward you, so please help me, young man.”

“In case… Well. Let’s see.”

“Ham Bosch.”

Lloris looked at the paper on which the map was drawn and shook his head.

“I’m not sure either.”

The moment he tried to straighten his back, Grandma laughed evilly and shot Lloris in the face with something hidden under the paper.

“Great!”

He squinted at the liquid that had suddenly been sprayed on his face.

Power has gone out of the body.

He fell to the floor and passed out.

When he opened his eyes again, he was sitting in a dark basement with a musty smell.

“Where is this… ?”

His hands and feet were tied to the iron armrests and legs of the chair.

“Why me… who… ? Maybe Mr. Maru… ?”

While Lloris looked bewildered, the iron door creaked open.

Six people wearing smiling masks on a white background entered.

They were thin, large, and varied in body shape.

The voices of a middle-aged man and a young woman came from behind the mask.

“Is this guy the priest of that warrior’s party?”

“Yes, it’s Lloris DeBarbie for sure. I checked several times to make sure there were no mistakes.”

“i get it.”

A middle-aged man hiding his face behind a mask hurriedly approached the chair where Yoris was tied.

The man was wearing a thick black cloak that covered both arms.

“Are you curious about why you were arrested?”

Lloris took the time to smile.

“Even if you don’t know who you are, if the hero knows this, he won’t stay still.”

Then another man wearing a mask spoke with contempt.

“Tell me not to stand still. It went well because we came to kill that hero.”

“… … ?”

The smile that lingered on Lloris’ lips disappeared.

“What are you all about?”

A middle-aged man wearing a mask said.

“A few months ago, because of you, a son of the Most High drowned in the sea. We arrived in this country the other day to avenge the son whom the High One loved, and whom we loved. In other words, I came to kill your party of warriors.”

“I have no idea what you are talking about. Are you saying we even killed that son of a bitch? I think you’re confusing me with someone else. What’s your son’s name?”

“You didn’t die. He died after wandering around alone.”

The man touched the instruments of torture hanging on the wall one by one and continued.

“The High One’s wrath reached its climax, and he commanded. After inflicting maximum torture on the warriors and their companions, tear them limb from limb and burn their hometowns to wipe out the family’s seed. And he told the warrior to destroy all the families that supported him, and he decided not to be bound by justice and goodness anymore. You offended someone who should never have been touched.”

Lloris burst out laughing, as if he couldn’t believe the man’s outrageous story.

“The story is absurd, so I can’t organize it. Are you deliberately acting to scare me? ”

The masked people all burst into laughter.

The middle-aged man shook his head.

“If you don’t understand, you can take it off with your body. The whereabouts of the hero and your comrades have been identified, and starting with you, they will be eliminated one by one from today. start.”

“Yes!”

“Hey, first of all, tell me the name of that child! There seems to be a misunderstanding!”

“That’s a story to share with a dragon.”

The man passed the instruments of torture to the person next to him and left the basement.

It wasn’t long before Lloris’s screams resounded desperately.

The man came out of the basement and sat down on a chair.

I took off my mask and smoked a cigarette.

The interior was an ordinary living room.

Soon after, four people opened the basement door and came out.

“That’s pretty bad.”

The four of them sit in their chairs and laugh.

The man who was exhaling white smoke said.

“Those who will start torturing the next shift, release the prince’s good stories one by one. To better control anger.”

“It’s just going to be a bitch.”

“Captain. I want to torture you a second time.”

“Ice Cat, tell me.”

A woman called Ice Cat took off her mask and began talking about a long time ago with a calm expression.

“Ten years ago, my father was very ill. At that time, the doctor said that to cure his father’s illness, he had to make a decoction of lugacho, which only grows on Mount Iressa, and feed him. But at that time, I had no strength, so it was too dangerous to go to Mount Iressa, which was known to be difficult in the village.”

A young man who had been listening quietly interrupted.

“If it’s Iressa-san, I know. I heard that a 500-year-old yeti called Mosk lives there.”

“you’re right. So, thinking every day whether I should go or not, I finally wrote and submitted a petition to the royal palace with the feeling of grabbing at least a straw. Even knowing that it would be impossible to meet the needs of the insignificant lower classes. By the way.”

She put her hand on her chest and closed her eyes.

“… One day the prince was standing at the door. I can’t forget that day even now. It seemed like a brilliant light radiated from the prince’s body.”

Are you the one who pleaded to get your father’s medicine?

Yes, by the way… ?

let’s go.

Who are you?

Prince. let’s go fast Hurry.

Will you go alone? What about the soldiers?

Being alone is not enough, what more do you want?

“I spent three days with the prince on Mount Iressa looking for Lugacho. At the same time, he ate animals and plants and hunted the mosque, and the prince was really strong like a warrior chosen by the sky. And he was very merciful.”

Ice Cat spread her palms toward the floor.

An ice spear protruded from the center of the palm and stuck to the floor.

“Thank you for giving me the heart of the mosque, I was able to become stronger.”

“You gave me something valuable. Did you find any herbs?”

“yes. They were clustered on top of the mountain.”

“I heard that you joined our unit through the introduction of the prince, so there was a connection like that.”

“I think it is a very special relationship. But because of them… !”

Ice Cat clenched his fists and trembled as if he could not control his boiling anger.

Then the cellar door opened.

The first torturer walked out, removing his bloody gloves.

“I had a 20cm skewer inserted into my urethra. I like it now, so I’m laughing.”

“ah! That’s what I was going to do.”

“You can take it and put it back.”

The middle-aged man looked at Ice Cat, who was standing in silence.

“Go in. It’s your turn.”

“yes.”

Ice Cat put on a mask and headed for the basement.

A few moments later, a terrible scream rang out from the cellar again.

“Is the recovery of the prince’s body going well?”

The man who had just come out of the basement took off his mask and wiped the sweat from his face.

He was a young man with sad eyes.

“Have you heard any news? I’m curious.”

“I don’t know. We lost contact when we got here.”

“How much?”

“Maybe three weeks?”

“It’s too long. Find out through other contact channels.”

“First of all, let’s make sure this matter is finished. Gradius.”

The middle-aged man extinguished his cigarette and sighed.

Currently, in the port of Keyburton, where the prince passed through last time, about 10,000 people from the home country hired local people to go out to sea every day to search for the prince’s body.

“Gladiator. Then I go in.”

A tall man rose from his seat.

The gladiator looked up at him from a comfortable sitting position and smiled.

“Okay, tell me your story, Helberd.”

“The prince… He treated me with a disgusting face just like everyone else. Every day, come to me who is dead… ”

Eventually, as Helberd finished talking, Wind stepped out.

“Give me a chance once Hellbird is over.”

“What is your joke?”

“I have holy powers, but I am actually a prostitute. Even knowing that, the prince hired me for an important position. It’s hard to get a good job if you have a dirty past… ”

After the wind, another woman opened her mouth.

The team name used to call her was Poison.

He was a demon, not a human.

“I haven’t met the prince, so I don’t know who he is. But I want to torture him quickly. Come on.”

After a while, Gladiator rose from his seat.

“Now is it my turn? I never had a heart in the past. It was the prince who restored the heart that was stolen by the devil.”

As a result of torturing Lloris one by one, the days were losing.

Lastly, Poison, who had purple skin, giggled as he opened the cellar door and came out.

“Because you use medicine, you’re trying to die by squealing?”

“Good work Poison.”

“I will kill you now. I need to eat dinner too.”

“I will kill you!”

Gradius immediately ran into the basement and closed the door.

The gladiator told everyone as he smoked a chain-smoker.

“Tomorrow has been decided to directly infiltrate the palace and capture the wizard.”

“The captain’s body reflects magic, so it must be simple.”

Suddenly, the bell outside the house rang.

When the gladiator went out, the agent dispatched from the home country was standing there breathing heavily.

“Hey, hey! We have Emergency Order No. 2! omg! Heo-eok… Moo, some water!”

In the order brought by the agent, the survival of the prince was confirmed and the wartime was switched to surveillance, so the Gladiator team was ordered to return home.

In addition, it was added that the queen was very happy to receive a letter from the prince after a long time.

“The prince is alive… ?”

“Oh my gosh!”

“right! That’s how you are a prince! I thought you were alive!”

“Huh, it’s a happy day. side.”

“Heaven, thank you.”

Everyone, including Gladiator, was very happy.

After tasting the water, the agent with a cool expression wiped the sweat from his forehead and opened his mouth.

“Ah, the general said something more, and since the prince is currently staying here, he told me to withdraw quickly so that there is no damage to the prince.”

The bewildered gladiator’s eyes widened.

“I-you are in this city… ?”

Then the cellar door creaked open.

Gradius tilted his head as he came out holding one of his severed arms.

“Well? Why are you all looking at me like that?”

“Hey you… Did you kill him?”

“no? It’s still hidden. I heard they were cut alive.”

“… … ”

“… … ”

“If the prince finds out, it will be a big trouble! Wind! Come on in and paste it!”

“yes!”

morning that day.

The two-headed carriage that was driving along the deserted street threw a large sack on the side of the road and quietly disappeared.

Lloris struggled to crawl out of the sack with both arms intact.

he was crying

“God saved me. God saved me. thank you… !”

Lloris, who had a terrible experience all day, was physically fine, but mentally he was very weak.

As he walked along the road, he often paused and took a quick glance around him.

Also, trembling with fear and anxiety that I might be kidnapped, I earnestly sought God.

“Help me. please help please help me… !”

As my head was filled with God, the white color gradually spread in my black heart, in case someone wasn’t a priest.

Thanks to that, the evil heart and desire decreased, and the pure dreams and pure faith of childhood began to revive from the depths of the heart.

“I want to go back to the original temple. It’s the only place I’ll be I’m afraid of the world… ”

He trudged toward the palace.
