Chapter 387 - [28th Round] Righteous Hero

The Holy Sword of the Southern Continent, Mollancoin, could freely change its size and weight.

Of course, it had limits, but normal-sized Heroes wouldn’t know about them.

It was time to get to work.

“To the Dwarven Kingdom.”

[Route creation completed.]

[ETA: 112 seconds]

If I were an ordinary student, I would’ve solved the problem revolving around the Elf Empire’s desire to conquer the world, but I deliberately ignored it since my goal right now was just to break through the 90th floor.

“Do not forget to work on your reputation here, pitiful students.”

? Request: Counselor Kang Han Soo, no matter how insignificant the students may be, please refrain from addressing them as such on the air.

‘Oh! I’ll take your comments into account, Morality Teacher!’

She was kinder to me before, though…

Her severity pierced my tender heart.

It felt like a high wall had been erected between our wonderful friendship.

? Apology: I’m sorry if I upset you, but this is an important live broadcast that most students are watching. I also plan to use it as a reference in future educational policy development.

My cowardly wife had a meeting with her mother, so she wasn’t working right now, but the Fantasy Institution still seemed to be functioning without issue.

? Explanation: Director Ssosiel pre-assigned work to the faculty members so she could focus on caring for her child.

My dream was to be a gigolo and live for my own pleasure, but I was actually sacrificing myself for the sake of my wife and son.

How did this happen?

After the end of the inspection, I would definitely break free!

“Ah! We’re here.”

Mollanfors stopped over the royal palace of the Dwarf Kingdom.

Everything was huge by default in the Giant Empire, which was why their reaction towards my aircraft wasn’t harsh or explosive. Meanwhile, the dwarves were clearly intimidated.

“Ah! What is that?!”

“My God!”

“Did we anger God?!”

“How is this possible…”

In horror, they all stared at Mollanfors, which was so huge its shadow covered the entire capital of the kingdom.

Such stupid dwarves.

Spending their talent on weapons rendered useless in modern warfare, they were defeated by a lone inventor.

This was the power of science.

? Shiva: I also flew there once to show off, but my ship was shot down. The same fate awaits him.

? Zeus: It’s your fault that happened to you.

? Odin: Did it really even happen in the first place?

? Allah: You’re an asshole for showing off.

? M. Satan: Please refrain from sending insults.

? Amon: Our dear Satan is still working hard even after he graduated. (Warning 1/3)

? Isis: An immediate warning?

? Luna: Haha. That’s funny.

? Sieg: I love you, dear Satan! I cannot live a day without this community.

? Opion: That’s a heartbreaking confession.

In short, the Dwarf Kingdom could be sundered in an instant, but that didn’t mean they were defenseless.

The townspeople were evacuated underground, and the defenders aimed their crossbows at us.

Moreover, next to us, their guardian dragon appeared in the sky.

“Sssssiaaaaaaaaahhhh!” Menacingly roared Queen of Wisdom Marlfari, the dragon in love with a dwarf prince who once died of overwork while carrying out an order from Fugitive Senior.

She didn’t attack immediately. However, as if demanding that we retreat, she bared her fangs threateningly.

? Shiva: If they don’t budge, she’s going to preemptively attack after 10 seconds. After that… BOOM!

? Baal: I understand you’re upset that you lost 1st place, but reveal your dark history…

? Zeus: Don’t mind him.

? Odin: Hasn’t it been 10 seconds yet?

? Adam: It’s either that or we’re experiencing the longest 10 seconds to ever exist.

As she was about to attack us with the force of the wind, the trademark technique of the silver dragons, her jaws clamped shut when she saw Kang Han Soo and Alex standing on the Mollanfors’ deck.

Flash!

She then transformed into a woman with silk-like silvery hair.

“What’s going on here, Hero?” She asked as she boarded my ship, her eyes looking closely at Kan Han Soo, not me.

Well, even if he was an alter ego, he was still me.

It came in extremely handy. He was, after all, the MAX-Class Hero.

He pointed at me.

“This is my clueless junior, and they came here to get the Holy Sword that you hold.”

“Is that so? I thought the sage that doesn’t understand the beauty and value of art had invaded…”

“Nonsense. If Shakespeare chose to do that, you would already be dead.”

“I can’t deny that.”

Marlfari then greeted Alex and the Snow Woman.

She didn’t even seem to notice me, but I understood her. Due to the incident caused by Fugitive Senior, she hated Heroes.

After a while, she finally looked at me with her silver eyes.

“So you came to get the Holy Sword?”

“Yes.”

“Peace now reigns on the continents of Fantasy after Demon Lord Pedonar’s reign ended. Therefore, I do not understand why you want to rekindle a new war.”

If it were me from the past, I would’ve answered, “To return to my beautiful hometown!”

But the story is a little different now.

I couldn’t even say that the inspectorate was forcing me.

I couldn’t postpone my answer or remain silent either.

The moment she asked me that question, her trial for the Hero had already begun.

I replied calmly.

“This is a question that we must ask God, who called me, saying that the world was in danger. However, if you want to hear my opinion, I just want to see the truth with my own eyes.”

“Arrogant Hero. You dare make such a statement simply because you consider yourself a righteous being.”

“I am.”

In 200 years of my heroic life, I had never once questioned my sense of justice.

“I understand where you’re coming from, but words alone cannot prove your worth. Let me give you a simple test. If you pass it, I will immediately give you the Holy Sword.”n/ô/vel/b//in dot c//om

“I’m listening.”

I didn’t even know what the test would be this time.

In the past, when I gave instructions to the rulers of the continents, I simply told her to help the Heroes.

Marlfari smiled brightly.

“Give up your harem.”

*****

Fugitive Senior could be said to be the culprit behind this test.

He wanted to take possession of all beautiful women, regardless of race, which was why he set his sights on Marlfari.

As a result, this silver flying lizard now hated harems.

To her, it was the essence of evil that destroyed the love of others!

It didn’t matter if the Hero was a man or a woman.

The Righteous Hero had to be monogamous.

? Amon: That’s why I gave up the Holy Sword of the Eastern Continent.

? Zeus: Harem ] 1 Holy Sword

? Odin: It sounds easy, but for some, it is hell. Even if you just temporarily exclude the beauties from your party, your reputation will plummet.

? Allah: I wonder what the teacher will do.

I didn’t prepare to receive the Holy Sword of the Eastern Continent, so I had no information at all.

I had to improvise.

“Give it to me.”

“What?”

“The Holy Sword.”

When I dealt with Giant King Phoenix, I had to pay attention to the tone of his voice, as his attitude had a huge impact on his version of the “Hero’s Trial.”

In this case, it wasn’t required. If the Hero had no harem, Marlfari would hand over the Holy Sword to them.

She should be ashamed to call this a test.

“The women in the party whom you fell in love with—”

“There are none,” I interrupted her sharply.

I had touched the spine and pelvis of some women, including the Imperial Princess and Aqua, but my vessel was biologically still a virgin.

“And this girl…”

“She’s married.”

The Snow Woman was Alex’s wife. Therefore, she couldn’t be categorized as part of my harem.

“Don’t ignore me!”

Disco got angry for some reason.

“Are you breaking your promise not to interfere with the Hero’s adventure?”

“… No. Please don’t get me wrong. This is just a matter of pride. Queen of Wisdom Marlfari, I am an unmarried woman, but I already have a master. I can provide evidence later in person. Therefore, please, let’s avoid discussing this.

“Okay.”

There were more men than women in my squad.

But the giant lizard didn’t give up so easily.

“What is your relationship with the first princess of the Holy Empire?”

“Summoner-victim relationship. Since we are of the same religion, we have established a partnership, nothing more.”

“And the Saintess—”

“She lost her Saintess status and fell into despair, so I set her up with Tomato, the former Holy Knights Commander. She is now married and living a happy life.”

“Then the mermaid—”

“That sore loser of a fish hates me, so I left her on the Western Continent. Do you have any more questions?”

“… No.”

Wisdom Queen Marlfari had carefully checked my past.

However, as the G-Class Hero, I was clean.

“Hand it over.”

“I sincerely apologize for doubting your sense of justice, Hero. From here on out, all the dragons under my command will help you in your adventures. Moreover, I present to you the Holy Sword Haymollan. This is the weapon used by the Great Hero, who saved me from the harem of the Vile Hero. Please treat it with care.”

“Sure.”

Holy Sword Haymollan.

Its name changed after the school transitioned to the 5th curriculum, but its functions and appearance remained the same as when it was known as Holy Sword B.

It enhanced the effects of the Hero’s skills and helped them easily master attributes other than Divinity.

As Marlfari said, I used it for a while before getting Nucleon.

And now it was again in my hands.

“Good luck.”

“May Mollan’s blessing be with you.”

I completed my business on the Eastern Continent in less than half a day.

? Odin: Where did the one who said the space station would be shot down in 10 seconds disappear to?

?Zeus: Shiva. Shiva. Where have you gone? Don’t cry. Come out. We won’t laugh at you.

? Allah: This is not funny. Stop making fun of them. This teacher’s adventure is rather strange. Getting hold of Holy Sword Haymollan shouldn’t be that easy.

? Amon: If one were a eunuch, it would be.

? Isis: But that doesn’t apply to the teacher. I saw him take a shower ^^

? Luna: Right. There’s nothing wrong with that part of him.

… Even though this wasn’t my body, I still didn’t like having my privacy invaded.

There was only one continent left.

I headed to the Northern Continent, where Mollan’s Teachings are headquartered.

*****

The birthplace of Mollan’s Teachings was the Holy Empire, where Master Mollan was hiding, but it was on the Northern Continent that this religion seriously developed.

It wouldn’t even be an exaggeration to say no one on the Northern Continent didn’t believe in Master Mollan.

“Glory to Mollan!”

“May Mollan’s blessing be with you!”

“Mollan! Mollan!”

However, most of them only blindly believed without knowing his doctrines.

They only followed the fundamental rule of not hunting and chasing slimes.

That was enough, though. After all, everyone was equal before Mollan.

[You have arrived at your destination.]

Mollan’s Teachings Headquarters.

This was the historic site where I, the First Apostle, installed the first-ever flush toilet by hand.

And only religious leaders of Mollan’s Teachings could sit on it.

“Stop, ignorant person.”

“Please indicate the purpose of your visit.”

I was stopped by two paladins guarding the entrance to the temple, which was erected around Flush Toilet No. 1.

This felt awkward.

Wasn’t it obvious why people go to the toilet?

Nevertheless, I answered with the Righteous Hero’s smile.

“I’m going to take a big dump.”
