Inside An Adult Game As A Former Hero chapter 4
EP.4 Well, twice is not too much of a hero, is it?
When faced with situations that are too unusual, people tend to panic.
That was exactly the situation with Gis now.
I couldn’t respond and looked at Cloud stupidly.
After some time, when he regained consciousness, he realized that he had been teased.
“You bastard!”
Whoa!
Cloud flew about 5m after being punched in the face by Gis’s fist.
A Cloud that fell to the floor and rolled over.

Gis ran right away and kicked Cloud’s stomach.
Cloud’s waist bent like a bow.
“You bastard who can’t do anything! Who are you kidding me?”
Every time I kick and step on it, I hear a crunching, cracking sound.
Even though Cloud’s body could be seen deteriorating in real time, Gith’s mind could not be resolved.
It was strange.
Usually hitting like this will relieve your mind, but no matter how much you hit this guy, the fucking feeling doesn’t go away.
‘Why?’

Gis soon realized.
Usually, they cry and beg for his life even if he beats him even a little.
Humans are creatures that are vulnerable to pain.

Gis is the type of person who can feel relieved when he sees such an unsightly appearance.
However, the Cloud that is being beaten now was different from those ordinary bastards.
No matter how hard he beats him, even if his bones are broken and his internal organs are injured, he doesn’t shed a single moan.
Where is that?
Cloud did not avoid nor block Gith’s kick. do you want to hit yeah hit it It was as if adults were comforting children.
And Gis didn’t really like that look.
‘Are you going to kill me?’
It was the moment when Gis, who had been caught up in the urge to kill, was about to kick Cloud’s neck.
“stop!!”
Neria intervened between them.
Thanks to this, the kick that tried to break Cloud’s neck had to be stopped. Gis looked at Neria as if he didn’t like her.
“What are you doing?”
“What are you doing! Isn’t this different from the promise?”
Neria hid Cloud behind her back and faced Gis.
It seems to be protecting the Cloud.

Gis stifled a smirk.
“Fuhh, you’ve already betrayed that bastard as much as you want, and now you’re just pretending to be here for it?”
“…”
“If you don’t have anything to say, go away. I’m going to have to finish it off with that bastard.”
“That’s not going to happen.”
It was the moment when Gis was about to push Neria away. Lorian grabbed Gis’s shoulder and pulled him back. Gis’ brow furrowed.
“Why are you fighting again?”
“Why don’t you look around before you get mad?”
Lorian pointed to the left with a chin gesture. There were nobility gathered and murmuring, but the atmosphere did not look good, although I did not know what they were talking about.
Of course.
No matter how brave he is, even if he respects the strong Gis more than Cloud, his humble origin is no different from Cloud.
No, I’m from a slum, so I can say it’s even dirtier in a way.
Such a guy assaults the same hero at the continent’s best Social Gathering?
Cloud that doesn’t even resist, continues to the point where even the viewers get tired of it?
It was natural for the nobles to be offended by the barbaric behavior and to babble amongst themselves.
“Other people are uncomfortable with your unilateral assault.”
“General assault? Do not be ridiculous. That motherfucker insulted me By referring to my mother.”
The nobility’s murmur grew louder.
However, the negative public opinion toward Gis did not change.
because…
“insult? Cloud? You sound funny.”
Cloud is of low origin and incompetence.
However, he is a good-natured and caring human being.
Although the nobles ignored him, he was well aware of his personality.
That’s why he only looked at Gis’ words by force.
‘This bastard… heard the map.’
No matter how whispering it was, Lorian would have heard it. But he acted shamelessly as if he didn’t hear.
“Did you not achieve your purpose? I hope you don’t do any more bullshit.”
“Yeah, your purpose must have been achieved.”

Gis waved Lorian’s hand with a displeased expression.
If Gis took away Cloud’s comrades because of his own low desire, Lorian was in order to contain the same hero, Cloud.
At first, I was just going to shake it up a bit, but somehow, things worked out so well.
So Lorian didn’t want to ruin the job by making a scratchy crumb.
“Aren’t you satisfied with being beaten so much?”
“if so?”
“Then I will deal with him on his behalf. In the form of Dalian.”
When Lorian drew his ceremonial sword, cheers erupted from among the nobles.
At this moment, the good and the bad are divided.

Gis, the villain, has created a situation where it is a loss even if it wins or loses.
“… you fucking bastard.”

Gis clicked his tongue and left the seat with a displeased expression.
When he left, Ophelia hurriedly ran towards Cloud.
“Soldier! Are you okay?”
That’s what she said, but she didn’t look good at all. She didn’t even resist, she just got beaten up, so she’s miserable.
Neria, who looked at it with sad eyes, said urgently.
“Ophelia, get treatment quickly!”
“all right. then…”
“wait.”
Cloud raised his upper body.
Neria and Ophelia’s eyes widened, but he didn’t care and looked at his own body.
It was a mess.
The shoulder fell out and the leg was bent in a direction that shouldn’t be broken, and there seems to be quite a bit of internal bleeding.
Cloud decided to put the dislocated right shoulder first. He put his left hand on his shoulder and gave it a strong force, and his shoulder blades were aligned with a crackling sound.
The broken leg was grabbed and turned to the original direction.
I moved around until the broken bone pieces fit together, and then released my hand when they fit snugly.
“done. Heal me now.”
“…Yeah? Ah yes…”
Ophelia felt a little creepy for some reason and used a heel on Cloud.

When disbanding a party, say ‘Dissolve!’ I thought it would be over with just one word. So was the world I was dragged into. But it doesn’t seem to be here.
“Then let’s break the party ties. It may hurt a little.”
An old man with gray hair walked up to me and stood behind me.
In this world, there was a pretty tricky procedure to start and end a party.
When you have a party, you have to register that person’s blood on the status engraved on your back, and when you break up, cover it with your own blood and wipe it off.
The reason for doing this procedure is to share experience points when catching a monster.
But, of course, there was no way I could reach the back of my hand. So I had to get help from others.
The person who is dismantling the party on my back is one of the butlers of the Imperial Palace.
The three heroines will be assisted by a maid in another room.
“let’s begin.”
You feel a cold liquid on your back.
Instead of a tingling sensation, there was a stinging and throbbing pain.
It’s not painful enough to make a moan. I just sat there idly, and it was over.
“Can I go now?”
“Yes, the party breakup is complete.”
“Then I will.”
I hurriedly left the room.
It is said that the emperor will appear in the Social Gathering after a while.
If you tried to leave the church while the emperor was there, you could be caught off guard, so I thought I’d get out before he showed up.
Fortunately, the room I was in was on the first floor close to the entrance to the Imperial Palace, so it didn’t take long to get out.
As I came out of the palace and went down the high stairs, a man was coming up from the other side.
But the face is not unfamiliar.
it has to be The woman who is going up the stairs right now is the only female warrior among the warriors in ‘The Braves’.
Frillite.
The eldest daughter of the Imperial Marquess and the strongest of the four warriors.
“Cloud? The Social Gathering isn’t over yet, but where are you going?”
As she went down the stairs, she looked at me with a puzzled expression on her face.
“I’m tired. I want to go back a little early today.”
If the food wasn’t good, there was no reason for me to be here.
“…what happened?”
“Nothing happened.”
I passed her side and went down the stairs.
Her gaze was fixed on me until I made my way down the stairs.

Surprisingly, there were bars in this world.
In a dark and secret atmosphere, the bartender at the center table is washing dishes.
The only downside is that there are no c*cktails, only wine.
‘Why do you need a bartender when you only have wine?’
I had a question like that, but I decided to skip it.
Because the wine tasted good.
Compared to the tasteless ale I ate at the inn, it was quite a bit!
‘Beer without soda. What kind of devil made such a thing.’
After all, carbonic acid has never existed in the world to which it was taken before.
So, as soon as I returned to Earth, I drank Coke. I still can’t forget the refreshing feeling she felt back then.
I really want cola.
I drank the rest of the wine at once. The glass, which had been grayish-white before, emits a transparent light.
It’s strange that glass crafts have developed again.
“If you drink like that, you will get sick tomorrow.”
A woman sat down next to me and said,
When I turn my head, I see a woman with red hair tied in a ponytail.
The dark atmosphere of the bar did not detract from her beautiful appearance in the slightest, and the red and golden tailcoat did not cover all of her voluptuous body, even though it was men’s clothing.
“Red? White?”
“Ask for white.”
“It’s surprising. I thought you would choose red.”
“Why did you think so?”
“You are red.”
I said, pointing to her red hair. She had an absurd look on her face.
“Aren’t you also drinking white wine with red hair?”
“That and this are different.”
I didn’t originally have red hair.
Not knowing that, she smiled.
“I’m glad I still have the energy to joke around.”
The waiter placed a glass of white wine in front of Frillite.
“It wasn’t a joke, it was the truth. More than that, what’s wrong with you, Frilite? I don’t think it’s time for the Social Gathering to end yet.”
Frillite de Perdiak.
As a hero and a woman from the most powerful family among the borders of the empire, she should have been shining in the society by now.
It’s not like I’m drinking cheap wine in an underground bar like this.
When Frilite grabs the glass and shakes it, the grayish-white wine shakes like a wave. Even so, not a single drop of wine spilled out of the glass.
“I heard what happened today.”
She stopped shaking the glass and brought her lips to the glass.
The wine flows endlessly.
Even though it was nothing more than drinking alcohol endlessly, there was dignity in his appearance.
“Didn’t I say earlier that if you drink like me, you will get sick?”
“Sometimes I have to drink like this to make me feel better.”
she smiled
He soon put on a serious expression.
“I never thought those idiots would do something like that. It is my negligence.”
“Why is that your negligence?”
“I should have been a little more careful. But I couldn’t do it because of the excuse of subjugating monsters. So it’s my fault.”
“Ugh.”
Frilite drank the wine the bartender had poured over him.
Those who don’t know will find it strange, but I know why she does that.
It’s not because of a personal friendship.
There’s almost no contact between Cloud and her.
However, there is only one reason why she cares so much about Cloud.
Cloud is a hero.
Frilite is worried that Cloud might lose motivation because of this incident.
The four heroes must work together to seal the enemy of mankind, the Demon King.
A legend that descends on this continent.
She didn’t want to break it this time around.
You might think that the legend is important, isn’t it just that the hero needs to defeat the demon king, but that’s wrong.
A hero can grow endlessly without hitting the growth limit. It means that you can break through your limits as a human being.
In other words, the hero is like a single weapon.
Such warriors are produced one by one in each of the four countries except the Principality.
But for what reasons will the heroes of a country disappear or not be produced?
As it is, the balance between countries collapses.
The gap will become irreversibly widened, and the country that has lost its warriors may eventually end up in ruins.
Frilite is worried about that.
Seriously, I can say that she was a daughter who grew up with a strict but upright father.
“I don’t know how it felt to be separated from a colleague I was with in that way. I can’t even guess.”
“Huh.”
“Nevertheless, I hope you don’t break.”
“It doesn’t break.”
“I am glad that you are a stronger man than I thought. Anyway, it’s going to take quite some time to save my mates again. i can’t help Recruiting people with outstanding skills from the Empire…”
“I do not need.”
Frillite, who had easily moved on despite my short answer, stopped this time.
She looked at me with serious eyes.
“I know it’s hard mentally. But courage and generosity are different laws.”
“Know.”
“Then take my favor. Even if it’s burdensome, that’s the way for you.”
Oh, you are very persistent.
“Because it’s done. Why do you keep doing this to me when you go out alone?”
“it’s me…”
“Yeah, maybe it’s because I have the skills. But do I hit it too? So let it go. It doesn’t matter if you go alone.”
“Cloud you…”
Frilite was unable to speak for a while, then sighed deeply.
She took the bottle of wine the bartender was holding and drank it in her mouth.
Wow, that’s a one-shot.
I smiled and suddenly remembered something I had forgotten.
‘By the way, there was no CG in the game.’
He was a very important character, but there was only news that he went missing while going to the underworld, and there were no separate event scenes.
“Whew…”
She emptied an entire bottle and set it down on the table.
I applauded her.
“The snow is beautiful, hehe.”
“…it must have been a lot of drunkenness. Next time you wake up, we’ll talk again.”
She put her hand in her arms and pulled out a heavy purse and threw it at the bartender.
“With this, calculate the cost of my drink, this man drank, and all the drinks he drank. There will be no shortage.”
The bartender opened the purse slightly and nodded eagerly with wide-eyed eyes.
“Then next time.”
She glanced at me once, then turned her back and left the bar.
Aww, this is really cool.
