He Didn't Want to Be the Center of Attention, Hence, after Defeating the Demon Lord, He Became

The Silver Bottle Pavilion flourishes considerably at night as a tavern. However, the number of seats is small, so if the capacity is higher, the indication of the entrance of the shop will diminish and the number of visitors will decrease. It is not good to have a line, and it will stand out even if it is too popular. I don't want to make money in the food and beverage industry because I only use it as a tavern to interact with Guild members and serve clients.

Even after the night started, Miralka, Princess and Eileen usually wanted to stay in the store and talk, so they moved to a discreet seat. I have about two private rooms for this kind of thing. I couldn't see inside the curtain, but it was close to the counter, so I sometimes heard a part of the conversation.

"Miralka, how's college these days? I'm talking about another flashy experiment."

"I'm working on an efficient way to destroy buildings of various materials in Siege Warfare by destroying them with magic. But I'm the only wizard who can do it, so maybe we should do something more versatile."

"Even after I crushed the Demon King, there were still monsters called" The Devil "and they were building forts. Miralka attacked the fort when people nearby were in trouble...."

"The oak, the auger, and the troll are very fertile, so if you leave them alone, it won't be difficult. It's a job that the guild does, but sometimes it's too expensive to ask."

I'm impressed that Miralka is helping people like a brave man. When I hear what you're saying, it doesn't sound like a destruction experiment.

"Even though the monsters in my country aren't out there anymore, they're still hurting me...."

"It's been a lot less. There are monsters coming in from other borders, and there are monsters coming from the sky. There's only one way to beat him each time."

"Is that so? Speaking of flying monsters, it seems that a firedragon has recently appeared in the woods near King's City. In the breeding season, they fly from volcanic zones with little food."

The story of the Fire Dragon Clan flying in and the people working in the woods in trouble came to me.

As far as I'm concerned, if the guild brings in a request, I'll deal with it, but that's not what I'm talking about right now.

There are S-ranked adventurers in the White Goat Pavilion, so it is likely that firedragons will be crushed if requested.

Master, aren't you interested in fighting firedragons?

"Materialally, dragon materials are hard to get here... I'm interested. But it's obvious that you're going to make such a big achievement. Even if it moves, there are procedures."

"Procedure... I see. It's not like we're going to leave people suffering from fire dragons alone forever."

"Verlaine, the order has arrived. Please talk to 'the customer' and get back to work ~"

At night, a waitress who works part-time comes to work. Originally a slumber girl, she was registered as a thief as an Alliance member.

"I've got the order. See you later, customer."

"Oh, I'm drinking properly."

Verlaine-Elsein is the real name of the Demon King. People only know the name "Demon King", so even if they name their real name, they won't know that they are Demon Kings, but I don't feel like I have a slightly too open workplace.

The kingdom of demons is named Elsein, and Verlaine is said to be the twelfth generation demon king. Given that King Albain 52 has a history older than the kingdom of Albain, the difference between the longevity of the race and the frequency of civil unrest is well understood. There has been a war of succession to the throne in Albain, but the reign is more calm now.

"Hey, Eileen. That elf maid, he's been working normally for some time, but you don't have anything to think about?

Have you noticed that Miralka hasn't changed her face since she faked it?

"I'll tell you what, Verlaine is a good person. Thanks for helping me. The shop's been saved. Dick's happy, isn't he?

"... Phew. You don't think it's dangerous to put Dick in jail?

"Oh, I'm worried about you. It's okay, I'm trying to get Dick to admit it."

"Admitted... ah, both of you. Does that elf have a favor for Dick?

I'm worried if the princess can stay at the store till this time, but it looks like she's staying at Miralka's today to have a look at her studies. It doesn't change to night play, but if they don't find out, it won't be a problem.

"Hmm, I wonder. I was hoping you'd give me back what Dick kept."

"I wonder if Dick realizes that he's working under the pretext of it... sometimes there's something missing, so I have to tell him."

"Miralka, isn't it good to have freedom of choice of profession? If I can do it, I'll meet Dick at this shop...."

"After all... you're really just thinking about Dick."

"Oh, I'm sorry. But I'm really glad that Dick helped me with the Duke...."

I can't help but be called to that girls' club seat, but I don't feel like I can escape in many ways if I am called.

And as I ran away to drink, Karan Cologne and the shop doorbell rang - feathering a plain scorched brown coat, a customer with a hood hidden his face came in and came to me at the counter.

I wonder if it's available next door.

"Oh, it's empty."

When you come to my shop, be discreet - one of the guests who says so.

"Shining Sword of Light Cody." I expected to come soon, but I didn't expect it to be today.

He took off his hood and made Cody smile refreshingly, as he always did. The complexion is much better than when I came to the store before.

"Customer, what do you want to order?

"Can I have a cold ale, please?"

"Yes, sir."

Unlike blends, ale can be served instantly by simply pouring it. This is the only pub in King's Landing that has a refrigerating ice room.

Verlaine didn't have to say anything, but he offered me a replacement for Yale. Together, Cody drinks about half at once.

"Phew... good. The Ale in this shop is still exceptional."

"It's not like other taverns. The taste changes dramatically with the material and the skill of the maker."

"You've been cohesive for a long time, Dick. No matter what kind of shop you run, I'm sure you'll be able to make a difference."

"I just want a good drink. The more I devise it as a tavern, the harder it becomes to see what it really is."

I don't talk to Cody like that. Disguise as a tavern hides your excellence as an Alliance - something you rarely say to other people.

Cody drinks the rest of the ale and starts to mouth the knob. If you only see where you are drinking that way, it will look more like a young knight drinking with a friend than a knight captain.

It is a friend, but I can't help denying it. Cody is a good guy with no back, and he's still a little dead knowing all sorts of signs.

"... it's about the princess, isn't it because of your help?

"Miralka said she was watching the game, so I thought it might be possible for you, Knight Commander... well, obviously for someone who knows my magic."

"No, I didn't feel any magic. But when I saw that" feeling of strengthening ", I thought I missed it. It's almost like a complete conjecture."

"Is that why you came to see me? What a rude guy."

"Hahaha... but so did Miralka. If they show you something like that, you'll have to come here. You still have influence over this kingdom. Even in very limited circumstances, those who speak the name" Forgotten Dick. "

If that's what Cody is, then you can think that my prospectus is going well. Considering the amount of information that goes into the Knight Commander, if my presence doesn't show up, then it's well concealed.

"Nh... this pinch is also delicious. Fried nuts, perhaps?

It's flame walnut fried. It can be eaten as it is, but when it is heated, there is a tingling pain. "

"Ah... this pain is a habit."

"By the way, this one goes through, but it's free in our shop. Don't hesitate to pinch me."

"It's as generous as ever. But this feeling... seems to be resistant to flames."

"Somewhat. To be more resistant, alcohol needs to be matched. That's about as much as fighting a flaming monster."

I also carry flame walnuts to my mouth to taste the pain - this would be the best way to cook this tree nut. It goes perfectly with Yale.

But what he thought, Cody stared at a small plate of flame walnuts. When this guy looks like this, it's time for serious consultation - this time it wasn't the exception.

"Dick, I need to ask you something. I didn't want to bring my job in from me, but I can only ask you to do it."

"No, I mean... it depends. It's not impossible for my guild, but it's not everything."

I asked if Miralka and the others had listened, but they were discussing things like the recent situation, and they still didn't even realize that Cody had come to the store.

"So, what do you want me to do? Make it a normal guild to ask for a cat. It's not like I'm never going to take it."

"If you're looking for a cat, the Knights can solve it... but if you can find it in one day, it'll take us days."

Cody doesn't know exactly what kind of information network I've created, but I have a reputation for being more familiar with King's Landing than anyone else. That won't be a mistake.

Cody, who had a soft smile on his face, unexpectedly looked serious. And he said with a little voice that he could never hear around him.

"My men have a female knight named Timmy. She is the head of 100 men, but this time she volunteered to slay the firedragon that appeared in the woods east of King's Landing."

"Hundred Chiefs... what's the knight's battle rating, Timis?

"1840. It's the equivalent of a C-ranked adventurer."

When the Knights are a thousand long, they finally rank in the ranks of B Adventurers.

And the difficulty of killing firedragons is whether the A-rank adventurers can finally achieve it by partying with six people. In other words, the female knight named Timis will definitely fail the crusade if she stays like this, and if she fails, she will lose her life.

"When you volunteer so recklessly, you don't have to allow it."

"That... His Majesty the King gave me an order. I want you to answer Timmy's wishes as best you can. And if she's trying to get a promotion, you're asking her to help."

"... I don't want to ask much, but what is the relationship between Timmy and the King?

"I'm the daughter of the king's side chamber. Since I was a kid, I've been somewhat good at martial arts, and I think I'm particularly good at using spears among my fellow officers. But there's a little too much work to do."

The presence of a firedragon nearby may have been a sign of a ship crossing for those in a hurry to accomplish their feats.

"The legitimate son... unless she is Princess Manarina, she has no right to inherit the throne. That's why you're going to be a knight. I don't think that's a bad thing in itself. If you follow the King's orders and let the King's daughter die as a result, it will be more problematic."

"Ah... that's why I thought about defeating the Fire Dragon. But I'm the Knight Commander. I don't have a shadow warrior, and if I'm not there, I'll soon learn from the surroundings."

"... well, I guess so."

The surrounding trust in Cody is strong, and his deputy generals look to Cody for directions every time. If he is gone, he will mobilize his men to look for him - and if the King finds out that Cody has moved, he may be perceived. I can't help thinking that Cody crushed Timmy's fire dragon crusade beforehand.

Even though it's a hassle, Cody still swears allegiance to the King. Now, Cody's parents, who retired as adventurers, are offered generous coverage.

Cody doesn't have that ambition when it comes to building a country just by being a brave man. It would be a shame to look at it from the side, but there is no doubt that the country is safe because he is the chief of the Knights.

"... suppose Timmy's party comes to this store looking for the information they need to crush the Fire Dragon. Can you let her win?

Difficulties are much different when it comes to the princess duel - the opponent is not a human but a firedragon. At least 12,000 points for Cheng Long, according to the battle assessment. The armor will be destroyed with a single blow, including 1840 knights, and the lives will be in danger with a second blow.

If Timis takes his men, the Fire Dragon always spits out a brace to wipe out the group's enemies. If you do so, you will suffer enormous damage.

But there's a trick to fighting firedragons. Given this, it is not impossible to override the difference in combat ratings.

This was not the first time a firedragon had come into the forest of Belfortune. I once crushed another Fire Dragon individual two years ago. Let the guild take my place.

Defeat the Fire Dragon with a bloody female knight and teach her not to take any more actions that are out of line with her abilities.

If you ask me if I can do both, I'll answer. As long as the conditions are in place, it is not impossible.
