Shota's Isekai NTR Adventure



Scar revealed a bitter smile as he said, "I can't hide anything from you, can I?"

I just looked at him with the same narrowed eyes that were filled with doubt.

Scar gave a sigh and said, "We're going to report into headquarters. We're going to see all of our bosses."

The moment that I heard this, I couldn't help knitting my brows.

The Shadow Garden headquarters, I did know that it was in the capital, but I never knew exactly where it was since I had never been a part of this organization before. Then again, this organization had already been destroyed in the game, so most people wouldn't be able to join it in the first place.

Then I asked, "Weren't we going to see the king? Why are we taking this detour?"

Scar revealed a bitter smile and said, "You think that we can meet the king whenever we want? The king is a busy person."

I also revealed a bitter smile when I heard this.

I was still in the game mindset where NPCs were available whenever I needed them. After all, there was no concept of waiting in the game world unless a NPC was unavailable because of some kind of quest or scenario.

But this wasn't the game world and an actual world based on the game.

They were no longer NPCs and they were able to move based on their own lives, so it wasn't as if the king would be waiting for me to come visit him.

The king was a busy person, there was no doubt of that just based on the fact that he was a king alone.

A king was the person that ruled over this kingdom, so there would be many things for him to do during the day.

So I just gave a simple nod in response to this.

Scar then said with a sigh, "We'll be seeing the commander and reporting to him. You'll need to tell him everything that happened in Bright Water City, so are you ready?"

I gave another simple nod in response to this.

I had figured that this would be the case, though I was expecting to report to the king. So I had already prepared everything that I would need to say and prepared for every question that I thought I would be asked.

No matter what happened, I was certain that I was prepared.

Scar didn't say anything after this and just gave a sigh as he looked out the window.

The look on his face really made it seem like he was exhausted by all of this.

The carriage didn't have to travel long before we arrived at our destination…which was the castle in the center of the capital.

I couldn't help being surprised when I saw this, but Scar explained, "The Shadow Garden is an organization that reports directly to the king, so naturally we would be based on the castle."

There was a part of me that thought, "Since we're here at the castle, why not just meet with the king as well." But I knew better than to say that out loud after seeing the look on Scar's face.

However, after arriving, we didn't head right into the castle.

Instead, we went to a small building outside of the castle that seemed to be some kind of old store. In a sense, it seemed like it was out of place with the rest of this street.

When we came in, there was someone at the counter that immediately glared at us.

Scar just calmly showed them the same token from before and the person behind the counter waved for us to follow before heading into the back.

Scar gave a nod to me and we followed this person deep into the back.

This person led us to a special room and waiting for us in that special room was a hatch. This hatch had a ladder that led us into some kind of basement, but it was too dark for me to see exactly what this place was.

That was until Scar suddenly lit a torch for us.

I saw that it was some kind of tunnel that was under the store.

Without a word, Scar moved forward and we could only follow since he had the only torch.

Based on the direction that this tunnel was heading in…it seemed like we were heading towards the castle.

But why would they do all of this?

One minute, Scar was saying that we reported directly to the king and the next, we were sneaking into the castle.

Scar saw the look on my face and said, "Well, we are secret agents in the end. We should enter the castle in secret, shouldn't we?"

I revealed a bitter smile.

If you wanted to be secretive, why would you enter through that place that was clearly some kind of secret entrance?

It was an old store that was out of place with that street, so it was clearly hiding something…

But I didn't say anything since I knew that I wouldn't get the answer that I wanted.

I knew that this most likely had something to do with the game.

I would even bet that there was a developer who had thought 'this would be cool' when he designed this!

But that made me even more depressed since these were all things that I had never discovered in the game.

It was clear that this was some kind of quest from the game and for me who had thought that I had unlocked everything, this was a large blow. I couldn't call myself a completionist anymore if it turned out that I hadn't finished every single quest.

After walking through the tunnel for a bit, we arrived at the castle as I had expected.

We arrived in a place that seemed to be an office, but there wasn't anyone that was inside.

The only thing that was in this room was a stuffed bunny that was sitting on the chair behind the desk.
