Chapter 272
Roland's POV
D*mn it!
Why must a hero like me endure such misery?
Afterward, Martin rushed to my aid, joining forces with me.
Thanks to him, I managed to escape.
However, due to that, Martin...
"Hey, Roland, I can't always come running to your rescue, you know? Be careful," he said, smiling.
Smiling, but his face bore a large scar, a consequence of using himself as a shield to create an escape route.
This wound is deep, and unless healed by an elixir, it won't disappear.
Martin is a charming guy, more proud of his handsome looks than being a Hero.
He went so far as to risk his good looks to help me.
"I'm sorry."
Amidst everyone else's betrayal, he's the only one who stood by my side.
I'll repay this debt without fail.
I'll take back that good-looking face of his from the church, even if I have to steal elixirs.
"Sorry, Martin."
"Don't worry about it! Well, I'd rather not stay like this, so let's raid a church and snatch some elixirs."
"Yeah, I'll lend a hand. You're my benefactor, after all."
"Yeah, how about we join up with Edgar and head out to the outskirts together? With you, Roland, there won't be too many who can stop us outside the capital, imperial city, or holy city! We can raid some church in this country's remote region, grab their gold, and live by raiding churches for a while."
"Hmph, from now on, churches are our enemies! They're straying from my sense of justice! From now on, all priests and apostles are no different from demons... I won't grant them any rights... since they're just like demons, killing them won't weigh on my conscience."
"That's right! We're Heroes! All enemies are evil... that's how it goes, right, Roland? So, what's our plan now?"
"Let's join up with Edgar and head to a weak region... There, we'll seize what we can, become stronger, and eventually defeat the Holy Church Nation to reclaim Kohane... but for now, we have no choice but to run."
"That's the only option, huh?"
I won't forget this humiliation.
There are three Heroes...
I'll definitely have my revenge.
Those priests and even the Pope... remember this well.
I will return.
Until then... wait for me.
But for now... let's snatch some elixirs from some church.
* * *Edgar's POV?
I never expected Martin to join him there...
Armed holy knights, and yet they fell behind.
D*mn it... they managed to escape!
But, Roland, you're about to experience hell.
"Hero Absolutists" are everywhere.
The Pope himself has issued a warrant.
There will be no peace for you and your comrades.
The entire world is your enemy.
