Chapter title: The Hero Who Can’t Handle It

「So you deleted the evil god….?」

I nodded again at someone’s question.

「…Bishop Hugo. The orb of truth is broken, right?」

The Prime Minister calls out to the Priest, breaking out in a cold sweat.

「Honestly, I’m having a hard time believing it myself……. I’d like someone to tell me a lie if possible?」

The priest’s recklessness made everyone look troubled.

「In that case, I’d like to ask you a question.」

The king stepped forward and looked at everyone.

「Someone broke the wine from my collection of phantoms. The people here say they didn’t break it.」

At his words, I heard “I didn’t break it!” Apparently, no one was lying, so the priest said again, “It’s true”.

「I, I didn’t break it!」

「It’s false!!!」

The priest opened his eyes and pointed to…….

「You’re the culprit!」

「I, I’m so sorry!」

The Prime Minister was in a cold sweat.

「You’ll get a pay cut.」

「Th, that’s…. Haa」

The king’s words caused the minister to drop his shoulders.

「Apparently, it’s not broken.」

Alice-sama replied with a bitter look on her face.

「Well, this has turned out to be a problem in reverse.」

「Um, maybe I shouldn’t have answered that?」

I have indeed defeated the evil god.

I confided in him here because I knew that without the orb of truth, no one would believe me.

If they didn’t know that the evil god has been killed, the nations will have to live in fear of the threat of the evil god. That’s why I told everyone…….

「Elt. The truth is, the Orb of Truth is a divine judgment.」

「What do you mean by that?」

Not understanding the meaning of the king’s words, I asked him back.

「This orb of truth is connected to the temple headquarters. All truths are shared with the Temple. Even at this moment.」

「I see?」

I nodded vaguely, not quite understanding what the priest was saying.

「In other words, the information that you have defeated the evil god has been recorded by the head temple at this moment.」

「The temple is probably in an uproar right now.」

Alice-sama and the King looked at each other with bitterness.

「That’s for sure. And I’m sure this information will be sent out to the people soon. After all, the abominable evil god has been destroyed.」

The priest looked excited. The people around me slowly began to believe it, and I began to feel happy.

「I think we should call it a night for now, right?」

「Well, I will prepare a guest room for you, Elt-san, so you can rest there.」

Alice-sama and the Prime Minister nodded, and I was forced to leave the room before I knew what was happening.



After Elt left the room, King Erivan, the Prime Minister, Princess Alice and Bishop Hugo had a consultation.

「Can’t we delay the announcement?」

「I don’t think that’s possible. The threat of the evil gods is a problem that has plagued all nations. There is no reason for the Temple to keep it a secret.」

「But that would be a very troubling situation.」

Princess Alice bit her nails and a pained expression appeared on her face.

「He’s the boy who defeated the evil god. It’s only natural that they would want to include him in this unprecedented event.」

King Elyvan and Princess Alice thought that they could take in a person with some merit in their country. However, if it was someone who had defeated an evil god, it would be difficult to handle.

Even if they succeeded in getting him, he might become a threat to other countries.

If he can defeat the evil gods, in other words, he is more powerful than them.

「Elt-sama is relaxing in his room now, is he not?」

The Prime Minister asked.

「Yes, Alicia went with him, so I thought they would have had a touching reunion by now.」

She imagined Alicia and Elt embracing, or even more than that, and her heart ached in her chest.

But she ignored it and turned to what she needed to do now.

「Bishop Hugo. Could you please announce it in two weeks?」

「What do you intend to do?」

「We can’t tie up person who has defeated the evil god, because if he antagonizes us, our country could get destroyed.」

That’s what Princess Alice says, but she thinks it’s impossible. From what Alicia had told her, and from what she had seen at the fountain, Elt was not a man who wanted to fight.

「So, we need to respect his wishes and restrain the neighboring countries.」

King Erivan, who had been silent, opened his mouth.

「In other words, you want to hold an international conference?」

Princess Alice nodded with a serious expression on her face.

Elt’s existence alone will start to affect the world, but he will not know about it until a little later.
