Hero’s POV
We were finally allowed to train out in the woods .
My name is Takanashi Yuu .
I have the cheat ability called 【Holy Sword Lv30】 .
With that ability I can take the sword of light out of my hand .
I don’t even care if you’re the Demon King or what, but I’m going to use my ability to beat you to a pulp .
Of course, I’ll make a harem on the way!
「What are you grinning about, it’s disgusting . 」
This brown-haired woman is Anzawa Miya .
Her cheat ability is 【Presence Detection Lv20】
She’s real pretty, but it’s disappointing since she’s foul-mouthed .
It’s such a shame that I can’t sway her .
「…You’re both annoying . 」
This small, white-haired man is Katori Shuugo .
I don’t know what he’s thinking .
His cheat ability is 【Hypnotic Magic Lv25】

Which of course, didn’t work on me .
Because I’m a hero .
Think about how I feel about being entrusted with exploring the forest with two people with useless abilities in this battle .
These two guys are small fry . They’re not worth it .
I hope that they die quickly .
Hmm, it looks like we’re deep in the woods .
「This time we’re only going to pick 20 forest herbs, so let’s get this over with . 」
「You’re just a small fry, don’t act like you’re in charge . 」
The reason we’re here deep in the forest is that adventurers have collected the herbs in the shallow areas .
They’re too careless .
They’re an idiot .
「Aww, if only the basilisk had lived, I would have hunted it in all its glory and become the town’s hero . 」
While saying that, I hunted a wild boar that attacked me .
The two guys behind me are really useless .
Despite having teammates with a support-oriented cheat ability, they don’t support me .

They are too incompetent .
「This time the objective isn’t to subjugate them .
What you are doing is going to destroy the ecosystem . 」
「What do you know?
Don’t tell me what to do, you poser . 」
It really pisses me off that I’m being treated like these guys .
I should have been given a bigger role .
Let’s defeat the Demon King soon… eh?
Are there arrows sticking out of my chest?
「Ara~? The heroes aren’t as strong as I thought they were~ 」
I heard a woman’s voice .
It’s coming up from the other side for about 100 meters .
「Weren’t the heroes who defeated the basilisk~? 」
「Who are you?! 」
「…Damn it, the hypnosis spell doesn’t work . 」
The one who appeared was a blonde elf with long ears .

And then she shoots arrows at the two others .
「Well, that’s fine~ let’s take the hero’s corpse to the king as a souvenir~ .
It’s a great way to promote the Demon King~ 」
So, she is the Demon King’s subordinate .
What a despicable woman to shoot arrows from a place I didn’t even notice .
The bleeding from where the arrow was shot did not stop .
The other two have already passed out except for me .
I can’t hold out for long either .
「Well, it’s too heavy to bring them all together, so let’s just cut off their heads~ 」
The woman approaches us .
It’s not looking good . I’m losing consciousness .
「Nyaa—（『Shine on the darkness . Lightning 』）」
Hero’s POV
I woke up in the castle infirmary .
The person who appeared to be a medical officer cast the antidote spell diligently, and when I woke up, he gave me the antidote and a potion to drink .
Those two guys were drinking potions, just like me .
「…What about the woman? 」
I ask the medic .
「Who the hell are you talking about? 」
「She was a fiendish blonde elf who attacked us .
It’s probably the Demon King’s lackey . 」
「What?! Have you fought with the Demon King’s follower?! 」
According to the medic, we showed up in the infirmary out of nowhere .
They were able to treat us in a hurry and we managed to get out of it .
「I’m sure we’ve all been rescued by someone . 」
「…Thanks . 」
「Shut up, you useless bastards . 」
Someone in the woods helped us, huh?
The person who hunted the basilisk may be still in the forest,
Did they save us? … . No way .
