Chapter 5

- Goodbye work, hello freedom -

"Man, what's that delinquent problem?"

Still remembering the farewells today, Mika grumbled.

"After that he acted so cool and said ‘if you have any problems, don't hesitate to ask me.’ Maybe he got the staple-hero disease too?"

Since Mika was rotten, she didn't get used to other people’s kindness.

"Eh, whatever, now I'm free, FREE! Now I can say it mwahahaha. Goodbye, life full of restraint society calls school, life, prison, and work! Hello, other world full of fantasy, adventure, money and freedom!"

Feeling relieved, Mika seemed happy on the street.

Other people looked at her like she was trouble and ignored her.

"Now, what should I do?"

"Hmm.. I want to see the beast-kin at least. I always heard that mofumofu is the best in the world. Uheheh, Aimi-chan with cat ears...

She drooled all over her face.

After losing herself in delusion, Mika snapped back to reality.

" Ah, well, I shouldn't get my hopes up."

"I know surviving in this world gonna be hard."

"I need to get basic skills to survive."

"No matter what world, life isn't gonna be sweet, I need to put that in mind..."

"Ah, I need to be careful about the money too. It's troublesome if I attract hyenas and money grubbers. Gotta deal with them like I took care of scammers in the past, threaten them with their weaknesses and never show them any mercy... alright."

She thought logically.

"But for noww, let's go splurge!"

And she forgot about everything that happened today, including her promise to return.

- Midnight, in the castle -

"Was it wise? Letting her go like that?"

The king and his subordinates had a meeting.

"Things are getting a bit unexpected. but no matter, it’s still according to the calculation."

Originally, the plan was to kill Mika in the middle of the man-eater forest once the heroes were done with their training.

After seeing their comrade corpse brutally killed, it will surely impact the heroes.

If she died outside, it would be troublesome to bring her corpse back without any attention. Others might be suspicious of how quick she died after departing.

"If she gets outside our territory, it would be troublesome. she would realize that our bluff was a lie from the start, and might move against us. Our country will be viewed lowly by the other countries. If she becomes adventurer in other countries then it would mean killing someone from other countries. It would become a declaration of war."

"I know, that's why we have no time. GARON!."

The man named Garon was nowhere to be seen, but the king knew he keeps watching outside.

"Find a way to dispose of her before she leaves the country. I'll leave the means to you, if it's too much trouble bringing her corpse then dispose of her as soon as possible."

Garon only answered "yes" with coldness in his eyes.
