Dorei Tensei: Sono Dorei, Saikyou no Moto Ouji ni Tsuki

The men brought him to an old man's house called the chief.

It is a very common building in this area, not a suspicious house that criminals enter and leave. In a long house with lots of houses, neighbors who heard the noise push them in front of the house.

"What's going on in this town?" I said while putting Celestia to bed.

The length sits at the table, and behind it, the young men just stretched out their spine and solidified. Speaking of which, the chief held his face down with both hands, spitting, and simply arranging apologies.

"I'm sorry, I've just forgiven everything... I'm responsible for everything..."

"Is it all your fault this town doesn't have any adventurers?

"... yes"

I hate to think of adventurers like that, but they seem to have a record, and they're still responsible for everything? And I can't help but bow my neck.

"First of all, why did you do this and how many adventurers did you kill?" I said, the faces of the young people and the captain turned blue and shook their necks at once.

"I didn't kill you! I just took everything from my possession to my equipment and sent it naked to another country....."

The chief is desperately excusing himself, but still confesses that he was doing a pretty bad thing. I don't know if I'm aware of that...

"Okay, okay, if you didn't kill him, why did you do it?"

"... I see. This is all because of unpaid taxes. It's going to be a long story, but..."

When the chief spoke slowly, he felt the fists of the hardened young people being firmly gripped and overflowing with anger and feelings that could be removed. With taxes that have multiplied many times in the last few years, people in the city are living in poverty. It seems that the lord has raised the price of the tax without notice, and those who can no longer afford to pay it have begun to resort to banditry as a last resort. Naturally, the people in the town were pretending not to see it.

What's wrong with you, Lord?

"No, Your Majesty, the lord had no choice but to execute it on His Majesty's orders."

"Iris....."

Seventeen years after I died, my brother Virus seems to have become a worthless king.

I intend to reincarnate and complete the resurrection magic, but I get a headache from the fact that there is a pile of things to do before that.

"I've heard that the cult is wider, but you're Chlorinas, right?

"Of course! There is no cult in this town, and no one who follows such filthy teachings."

And they all nodded, and took out the cross of Edina, the God of Chlorina, which was hanging from his neck, in the words of the chief speaker.

I decided that I would be a devout believer if I could always carry it with me.

Wrong is not a substitute for cult believers.

"Okay. If you carry something like that, I don't think you believe in cults," I said, relieving the expression of the chief who had been nervous until now.

"Well, are there any rumors of cults around here?

Everyone looked at each other's faces and replied that they didn't know.

It doesn't look like he's lying to his face, and there really aren't any rumors about cults around here.

Then, when I was about to say that I would continue the raid, the captain pushed his forehead down to the table and said, "So, I want you to punish me for this incident."

"That's impossible," I said, scratching the table with my long finger on the table with a scratch.

"---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- I think that an adventurer who gets hit that far deserves it in a way. You should be given the opportunity to start over before you die and be thankful."

"Well then....."

When words with long expectations leak, the young people also swallow a croak that makes their eyes shine on a word I would say.

"I intend to stay out of sight on this matter, but if I continue to do things like bandits in the future, I don't expect such a sweet response. It's no wonder everyone was killed there."

"Yes... All the adventurers up until now were cheap equipment, so I guess nothing happened."

But there was something in me that caught me.

I'll remember what I saw in this town. And when you overlap with the words of the current leader, one question arises.

"All cheap gear? Then why are you after me this time?

"This is the first time I've worn luxury equipment like yours...."

"Does that mean we've only had beginners before?"

"I don't know, but at least we haven't seen it since we started."

It is strange to think that there are only beginner adventurers in town.

This town is not big, but it is the southern entrance to the kingdom of Carlitz, and it is no wonder that some of the top adventurers are here. In that case, it might be better to consider another cause in the current situation. It is unknown whether it has anything to do with cults.

"... nh, nh,... Walls, where are we?", Celia says from the bed behind her.

Celestia didn't seem to understand the status quo, so she started worrying about her clothes before she saw the men.

"This is it, this is the house of the people I helped," I said, and Celestia took a moment out of her misery and said, "What happened to those who attacked us and hid their faces?" he said.

"I had nothing to do with the cult, so I let him go."

"You attacked me?

"Ah, I got word that the cult is not reaching out to this town."

"Yes... if that's what you say, I'm sure it is."

Behind the words, Celestia turned her suspicious eyes to the men.

"By the way, it doesn't look like you're welcome at the rescuer's house, but what are you doing?

"... I'm about to welcome you."

"Yes, that's right. Why don't you guys get ready for the welcome?"

When the captain spoke to the young people lined up behind me, the young people rushed out.

But still, Celestia seemed suspicious, and I couldn't help but say, "Celestia needs to be a little stronger. If I fall in such a situation, I won't be able to show my strength."

"It suddenly stopped working on my hands and feet and drowsiness."

"If you notice the smell of Sleepy Hua (Somnus), you need to immediately detoxify it with Primary Magic or spread it with Wind Attribute Magic."

"... I'm sorry, I'll be careful next time."

Celestia leaned on the wrong foot.

Since then, he didn't seem to like being blamed, and did not look suspicious to the chief, but honestly accepted the welcome.
