The Healer Banished From The Party, In Fact, Is The Strongest

I still have a clear memory of that time in my head.

When I was a defect healer, that's what they said and abused me, the memory of that time.

No one dealt with me, sometimes even violence. [M]

I even thought I was neglected by all the people in the Labyrinth City.

"No, the..."

... and that's why I couldn't hide my uncomfortable feelings right now.

"I'm so, so sorry!

It was some of the adventurers who were supposed to mock me until now who are shouting and apologizing to me in the Adventurers Guild.

They rub their foreheads on the ground and desperately apologize to me.

The sight attracts the attention of the adventurers around, as well as the Alliance staff.

Besides, my face is cramped, but the adventurers who bowed their heads to me didn't give a shit about my surroundings.

"Well, we didn't know that Mr. Laust was so strong until we saw him defeat Hydra..."

"Oh, yeah! It's not like we've ever been abusive..."

The face of an adventurer who repeated something like that excuse had an irresistible fear.

Apparently, the adventurers in front of me were watching me fight that Hydra mutated.

And that's when you came to apologize, thinking there was nothing you could do if you retaliated against me.

"Ha..."

That's what I understood. I couldn't help but sigh. [M]

Two days after I defeated Hydra, my position among the adventurers changed dramatically.

The adventurers who have been making fun of me have begun to apologize to me and invite me to parties.

... but strangely, my mind never moved by the change.

"Really, I'm reflecting! So, uh, forgive me!

An adventurer desperately apologizing, whose appearance, from the attitude of previous adventurers, would be unthinkable.

But even with that in mind, all I felt about the adventurers in front of me was annoyance.

I doubt that. [M]

Being apologized for by an adventurer or invited to a party should have been something I was eager to do, but I wondered why I was so cold.

And the answer came to my mind too easily.

"Oh, 'cause I'm already filled."

In my head comes the presence of Narsena, my most cherished person and my most trusted companion.

Perhaps I am filled with her presence alone, and that is why I have no interest in the adventurers who have now moved to take me in.

The moment I understood it, my interest in the adventurer in front of me had disappeared from my consciousness at the earliest opportunity.

This time I came to the Adventurer Alliance because I wanted to take a request, but now I decide I can't.

At the next moment, I was looking back and walking out to follow the Adventurer Alliance.

"............ what?

Shortly before looking back, I could see the face of the adventurer dyed blue, shaped to be ignored, but I didn't care and kept going.

That was a response from the constant human effort to get me into my party, saying it was an apology the moment I accepted the apology.

I wasn't angry at that adventurer.

"... duh, duh, duh, what do I do"

"... oh, calm down!

But behind my back, the adventurer, who had no reason to know that, was in a hurry...

◇ ◆ ◇

"Brother!

Narsena, dressed in a robe, appeared in my name just a little while after I left the Adventurer Alliance.

Narsena laughed in a good mood and walked out after me.

I smile unexpectedly at how Narsena is not trying to hide her pleasure in being with me.

"... I'm sorry, Narsena"

... but the moment I realized there was dirt on Narsena's robe, I remembered how sorry I was.

If I went to the Adventurer Alliance, other adventurers would invite me to join the party, so that Narsena would be invited to join the party more often.

No, Narsena had been invited to more parties than I did.

Because they think they have unparalleled beauty and are more powerful than me, who was called a defect healer.

That's why when we went to the Adventurer's Guild this way, Narsena was supposed to hide in alleys and such.

"Never mind. I'll just let you in with my brother, 'cause it's okay! Let's get to the city faster than that! Mary and the others are waiting!

But even in that situation, it should be noted that Narsena was as usual.

"Thanks. Narsena"

And I laugh as I feel strangely comfortable with the words.

A sense of serenity spreads through your chest.

"... it's not much fun to be famous."

... but still, I didn't have very good feelings for adventurers trying to force themselves to join the party.

... even if you know you don't feel bad for us.

"Chip!"

Well, it was when I was thinking that I heard someone pounding their tongue.

"Beh!

When I switched, what was there was a first-rate adventurer party in one of the few labyrinth cities.

Narsena tongues out for that party.

But unlike Narsena, who was showing her disgust at a first-rate party, I wasn't so obsessed with that party.

Honestly, it's better this easy to understand.

"... well, obviously it's a word because I know I'm weaker than I am."

"Pfft!"

Narsena unwittingly blows into my words.

With those words, did the frustration over the adventurer party that was hostile to this one subside, and then Narsena never exposed her frustration with the adventurer party.

My heart was calm leaking laughter against Narsena like that.

... but at that time I was not at all happy that I had become famous.

By defeating Hydra, the humans who have come to me to deepen their intimacy only remind me of the annoyance.

That's why at some point in my life, the image of a mutated Hydra crusade just called for trouble.

"Nal to Laust, I've been waiting for you!

"You guys, you're here a lot!

"Wow! I'm gonna let everyone know!

"... Huh?

─ ─ That's why when we got to the city, I couldn't hide my confusion about the reaction the city people took.

But more and more people gather around me like that and surround me.

I'm even more confused by the situation. [M]

"Really, thanks! I'll serve you this time, so take whatever you want!

"Oh yeah! You can't claim it from a hero! Take whatever you want!

"I mean, you guys were really amazing adventurers!

"Huh!"

But I finally understand the situation to the people of the city who surrounded me and started making noise.

The people of the city are grateful to us for taking down the Hydra mutant.

"Yo! It's a festival!

"Copy that! I'll be ready in a hurry! Oh, you guys in the lead stay in this place!

"Let me talk to you later!

To be honest, the city's welcome was pretty rough.

My ears are paralyzed because I was slapped hard on the back and raised loud in my ears.

"Ha,"

But in that situation, I was smiling when I realized it.

I didn't feel the joy when the adventurers apologized to me.

"Brother, it's really good to be able to take down Hydra... no, it's good to be able to protect this place"

And Narsena smiled at me as if to speak for her feelings.

The sudden opening of the festival on that day lasted until late at night…
