Hero’s Redo ~ A Hero That Once Saved the World Reborn as a Girl ~

When I say mansion, it's not a big deal. My house would be many times more splendid with that one because I'm just saying it looks like a mansion relative because the surroundings are full of barns. There are several men sitting on the ground around the mansion. My eyes are sharp for being dirty, and maybe that's the watch Bacchus was talking about. One of them ran over with a quick move against his appearance as soon as he saw Bacchus. Bacchus nods one thing and speaks to the man.

"How's he doing?

"I'm not out of the mansion. Sometimes I just hear voices from inside. Looks like you're having fun in the morning. than that......"

I turned my gaze so that a man would observe me chilling. I'm wearing my helmet again when I left the inn, so I'm just a heavily armed knight wearing full body armor no matter where I look from right now. I guess you're wondering why such a human being is with Bacchus, the summariser of the slums.

"Don't worry. This guy here is our helper. He helps me help the kid and the woman."

"Is that true!? From that awesome gear, I'm sure it's very strong."

"Oh strong. We're no match for a bundle. You must be stronger than him."

The man who hears it looks at me with a changed eye color and full of anticipation. I'm sure you're expecting me to pull out my sword right now and storm the mansion......

"For now, the only place we have today is reconnaissance. I'd actually like to see the mansion and find out where I can sneak in from"

The man didn't even try to hide his dissatisfied face in words that went against his expectations, but it was immediately behaved by Bacchus.

"People showed up to help me because of this. Don't be rude."

"... ok. I'm sorry. I'll show you. Let's go."

As he followed the man around the back along the mansion's walls, he heard people screaming and crying slightly from inside the mansion. It belongs to women and children who are undoubtedly imprisoned. It doesn't belong to one or two people, so maybe a larger number of them are being held prisoner than I thought.

"... so far, we've only been able to confirm that five women and eight kids are imprisoned in the mansion."

"Has anyone tried to escape?

As soon as I uttered the question I had in mind, I didn't miss the man's shoulder trembling for a moment.

"... the woman and the kid who tried to escape were dead and rolling in front of the mansion. I'm sorry, but we couldn't help you..."

…………

Failed. That was an insensitive question, even though I could have predicted that for a moment. I need to think about it some more before I speak......

In an awkward atmosphere, we went around the back guided by a man and checked the loopholes, the spacing of the mansion, etc. According to that, it is the upstairs part of the mansion where the man is mainly staying. It's the biggest room, and it looks like all the hostages are being pushed into the small room around the corner next to it.

"Only when he wants to have fun, women and kids seem to be getting out of the room. That son of a bitch is insulting us, blocking our sights with a curtain. But thanks to that, I know how to move."

I'm angry to be licked, but if they're alarmed, is it convenient? It was impossible to peek upstairs from the side of the moat into the boulder, so I forbid, and after looking all the way around, we were walking away from the mansion and back to the original inn.

"So what do you say? You think you can handle that?

"... I can't say for sure, but I don't think I can"

His whereabouts are clear, and he can barge in easily by smashing windows. Besides, I didn't feel anything particularly strong from the signs of a human being in the mansion. There are signs I feel from more than some powerful people, but the lack of them must be a great lack of strength. I mean, not the kind of power you can fight from the front with me. If you step in at once, you should be able to defeat the hostages without even giving them time to get their hands on them. If you say that and say it now, the Bacchus and the others should insist on getting in soon, so you need to be deluded.

"I'm going to be ready, so I'll be away for about three days. I will gather items that may be used to fight."

"Just in case... you're not gonna abandon us, are you?

When I stood up and tried to leave the inn, I turned to surprise at the words I hadn't thought of, the Bacchus and the others looked pitiful as if they were dogs abandoned by their owners. I laugh to reassure them like that.

"Don't worry. I wouldn't bother scouting if I were to abandon you now. I'll be sure to help you, believe me, just wait."

"... ok. I believe you. Let me ask you one last time, by the way, what does your name say?

When I opened my mouth and bet I thought I hadn't named him that way, I stomped on the boulder to call him Lapis. In the old days, anyway, it would be easier to name a pseudonym because my face and name are getting known there these days too.

"I'm a lazy one. See you in three days."

I left the inn behind, frightened by a name that was too appropriate for me.

- Anero point of view

When we entered the Wang capital, we caught the attention of many, just as we did when we visited other cities. I'm used to being noticed, so I'm not even more offended now. It was the Adventurer's Guild that we headed to before we took the Inn. Because it's our job to do so in places where other people can't stand up and gather information.

Just to say Wang Du, the guild was overflowing with many adventurers. Neither veterans nor newcomers are inquisitive about the request in front of the sticky bulletin board. Oh, and not like this. People line up at the counter for buying materials, reporting requests, and accepting rewards. When we lined up quietly after them like that, for some reason many of the adventurers who lined up before gave us one order after another.

"I'm not in a hurry. Go ahead."

"Is that good? Thank you then. Thank you."

Though he has a loving laugh, that smile also looks a little drawn. We are particularly resilient among the prominent species called Lizardman - it may also be frightened to see a variant called the Golden Scale. As a result, when we arrived at the reception without much time, we were to meet again with the receptionist who looked nervous.

"Welcome. What can I do for you this time?

"I'm sorry, but I'd like to ask the Alliance Master to see me. My name is Anello, the brave man of Bercis. I was wondering if there was anything I could do about this demonic raid, and I asked him."

As soon as I named myself a brave man, the roundabout became noisy. Though the brave exist in every country, they are surprised because they actually have few opportunities to meet. Besides that, there is no brave man in this strom kingdom. What kind of existence are we now seen in for the people of this country, who have not long been subjected to much damage by the Demons?

"Oh, um... wait a minute!

The receptionist, who looked frightened for a moment, ran like he had been bounced back to sanity. A two-step flight up the stairs leading upstairs gives you momentum and quickly becomes invisible. She disappeared, and it was us who got out of hand, but the receptionist came back sooner than he could do anything.

"Thank you for waiting! The Alliance Master is going to see you. Please go upstairs."

Part of the counter opens and we slowly go up the stairs to the second floor following the receptionist. Knock was also sitting behind the door that was opened there, a man whose head began to stand out with gray hair, even though it was too early to say he was an old man.

"Alliance Master. These are the brave men of Bercis."

"Thank you. You need to get back to work."

"Okay."

The receptionist disappeared and silence visited the room. I'm not a good lover by nature, and I'm a lousy mouth, so I get in trouble at times like this. It would be rude to visit a boulder and not say hello, so I have to keep that about.

"... the brave men of Bercis are quite silent."

You couldn't stand the silence, they talked to me before this one said something. But, well, would that be better? I bow my head again after coughing one up.

"I'm sorry to interrupt you while you're at work. I say Anello. I wanted to ask you a few questions today, and I'm sorry to bother you."

"What would a brave man like to ask his guild master? Find out what you can answer, but you can ask me anything."

"Helpful. Soon as possible... haven't things changed in the city since the Demon Army raid? Any trivial matter is fine. If you know anything, I want you to tell me."

The Alliance Master is a strange face for failing to grasp the intent of the question. Was it still a bad vague way to visit something unusual? But you can't tell the truth... What's the matter? I couldn't figure out how to tell you, and it must have been weird to put my arms together and start roaring with Unh. The Alliance Master started laughing like he suddenly blew out.

"Ha... no, excuse me. The brave man seems like a very interesting man. Besides, he's like an honest man who doesn't lie. I don't know what you want to hear about that for... I'm interested, but don't ask in depth. So, the answer to my question..."

As the Alliance Master crawled his finger onto the shelf that was beside his desk, he pulled one material out of it and spread it out to show it.

"What's that?

"This is the city's case report. I don't know about the other guilds, but this guild shares information with the guards. You don't have to bother to find out what's going on."

"Oh... that's a big deal"

If you know the security situation, you will soon find out if there is a violent mess by the demons. I climbed out with anticipation and peered into the material held by the Alliance Master.
