The War Hero Raises a Demon Slave - Chapter 86



86 – The beach where the Milky Way flows (6)

How on earth can we prepare so much on our own?

Don’t you need expert help?

Worried, Ael followed Lamia at a slow pace.

That night.

Lamia called Einer and Ael and told them about what happened at the counseling center.

“I thought the owner was busy, so we did some research on our own. In conclusion, I don’t think there’s a need to go to a counseling center.”

“Really? How?”

Lamia explained the reason step by step to Einer and Ael.

1. Portrait Creation: Since I take pictures of many couples, I’m sure I’ll draw them roughly.

2. Wedding dress: Since you will only wear it once, it is better to rent it.

3. Wedding hall: You can use our restaurant, which has a better view, as a wedding hall.

4. Buffet: I can prepare it with Minari, the side dish store that Ael goes to.

5. Officiant and Orchestra: The officiant should call the Einer’s superior, and the orchestra should use the cantavera.

“If you do this, you can save money because there are many things you can solve on your own. Wouldn’t it be nice to use the remaining money to hire a skilled portrait artist?”

“It’s okay.”

Ainer thought that it was not an empty remark, but that it was sincerely okay.

He has attended the weddings of security guards several times.

At such times, several of those ‘portraits’ are displayed at the entrance of the wedding hall, but honestly, no one looks at them closely.

I honestly don’t know much about the wedding dress, and as for the wedding hall, I honestly wonder how many other places have a view as good as this one.

So you managed to buy it by spending almost all the money you brought with you when you came over from Brechnert.

When it comes to the buffet, there is nothing to worry about with Ael and Buttercup.

It’s actually funnier to eat someone else’s buffet at a restaurant.

For the officiating, you can ask the dwarf leader to stand, and for the orchestra, yes. If Cantavera decides to sing, how many orchestras in the world will perform better than that?

“It really seems okay. Ael, what do you think?”

“Me too!”

Ael also highly approves.

Earlier, during the day, when Lamia left the counseling center in a deadpan tone, she didn’t quite understand it, but after listening to everything, she felt like Lamia was the wisest person in the world.

I sat there like a fool and thought it was all good, but if it weren’t for Lamia, she would have spent a lot of money. Lol.

I’m so glad I have Lamia.

But why are you so smart?

Most of the Lamia I know are a bit untidy.

It’s really strange, strange.

Anyway, thanks to Lamia, I feel like I’m one step closer to preparing for the wedding.

“Then I guess I’ll just do as you said and prepare in more detail.”

“First, decide on a date and go accordingly. That way, you can send out wedding invitations in advance.”

“Good.”

Ainor, Ael, and Lamia talked about wedding preparations until late at night.

As we talked, Ael felt like tears were welling up for no reason.

I was so moved to talk about my wedding with people I could call family.

I never once thought that a moment like this would come in my life.

I’m so happy….

Ael lowered his head and quietly rubbed his eyes without the two people noticing.

* * * * *

Okay. Then, you can proceed with the wedding preparations as planned.

Next is a marriage proposal.

As he went on patrol in the morning, with his team members at the forefront, Einer was alone in his thoughts.

First of all, I got everything I needed.

The problem is when, where and how to do it.

I have a place in mind, but I’m not sure if Ael will like it.

“Hey, kids. What should I really do to propose…”

“Aner Jojoniiiiim! Aner Jojoniiiiim!!”

Just as Einor was about to ask the team members for their opinions, someone came running in from afar.

When I narrowed my eyes, I saw that it was one of Einer’s friends, Dinab’s team members.

“What? What happened?”

“Quickly! Come quickly, quickly!!”

While Einer was confused as he did not know the English text.

“You’re screwed.”

Near the overland road in the north of the city.

Security Captain Hadun scratched his beard with the edge of his iron club and expressed his disapproval.

Although he felt the touch of the dwarf’s super-strong iron club, Hadun had no choice but to withhold some of his infinite trust in his iron club.

It was because of a four meter tall humanoid monster wandering around the northern entrance to the city.

A hideous face with protruding fangs and limbs connected by tough muscles.

A clumsy log club comparable in size to an adult male was held in a thick hand.

A monster with a ferocious appearance that seems to be shouting with its whole body, ‘I am a very temperamental and dangerous person.’

After receiving the observation report, he rushed over in a hurry.

If you wonder if an iron club that is less than a meter long will work on a guy like that, well, let’s say it.

I think something like siege weapons should come instead.

But now, the only weapons the security forces have are swords, shields, spears, and crossbows.

This is a neutral port, so there is no need for large-scale wars or sieges, so most of the armament is focused on anti-personnel weapons.

In addition, since the city is so large, many monsters do not come near, so preparations for such medium-sized species are inadequate.

“So is that thing trying to enter the city or not? f*ck it. You have to know something to fight or not.”

“Shall we chase them out by yelling or throwing stones?”

Hadun screamed at Dinerve’s suggestion.

“You bastard! Is that an elk?! If you were going to do that, you wouldn’t have come here in the first place!”

Seup…. I guess I have some business to do in the city.

And of course, the monster’s business is not something like a polite way of saying hello to neighbors.

Just looking at him, he looks dirty and seems very strong.

Will I be able to subdue that guy with the security guards?

Even if I think about it, it seems like more than half of them will die.

Should we just block them with barricades and hold a sit-in protest and then let them return when they get tired?

“Captain. Let’s just call the wizards.”

In response to Dinerve’s suggestion, Hadun silently ripped off his beard.

Hadun, who received a report that a monster had appeared, decided to handle this with the security forces themselves.

I was already annoyed by the management office wizards bowing their heads and saying regretful things.

Furthermore, recently, when Einer and Malia had a huge fight and there was talk of disciplinary action, Hadun stormed into the management office and caused a stir.

We were able to avoid Einer’s disciplinary action only after smashing several desks, asking how dare we discuss the lower world, even though we belong to an independent organization.

In this situation, would you ask wizards for support?

It’s like putting a dog leash around your own neck.

But no matter how you look at it, unless that person is a wizard, there will be some bloodshed.

Aner, when is this bastard coming?

Meanwhile, the unidentified monster continued to hover around the entrance of the village, muttering something lowly.

“What is that guy saying?”

But there was no one who could answer his questions.

“Huh? Are you coming?”

At that time, I heard someone’s voice behind me.

When I turned around, I saw Einer leading his team and walking towards me, brushing his hair.

“Do you know what that is?”

“Isn’t it an ogre? Why is it here?”

“That’s coming? How do you know?”

“I’ve seen it somewhere else before.”

“That bastard, why are you wandering around complaining like that? What is your intention?”

“Hmm.”

Aner looked at the ogre with his arms crossed and opened his mouth.

“Ogres are very stupid. That’s why before hunting, they talk to themselves like that and keep memorizing what they should do.”

“W-What?! Hunting?!”

“Then, would you have come here just to have a cup of tea? Ogres are monsters that are also man-eating. They know the taste of people. Judging by the way they came here, they probably ate an unfortunate traveler somewhere and never forgot the taste.”

The faces of the security guards, including Hadun, turned pale at Einer’s calm words.

“You’re screwed, really?! Hey! Someone go to the management office quickly…!”

“There is no need for that.”

Einor put his hand on Hadun’s shoulder and stopped him from speaking.

“There’s no need to get support from a wizard just because of one ogre.”

“What kind of bullsh*t are you talking about, you crazy bastard?! So you’re telling us to let that bastard eat us and eat all the residents as appetizers?!”

“What you eat after a meal is not an appetizer, but a dessert, Captain. And even ogres won’t eat dwarves because they smell so strong.”

Aner smiled and pulled out his sword.

“Instead, please make one promise.”

“What promise?”

“If you catch that, please give me some reward leave and let me leave work early today.”

Everyone looked at Einer with their mouths half-open at those words.

“You’re going to catch that…?”

“Didn’t you call me to catch him?”

“Stop talking crazy! How are you going to catch that thing?!”

“It’s frustrating. Then let’s hold on for now and talk again later.”

“Uh huh?! Hey! Einer! Come back!”

“Captain! Don’t go alone!!”

“Aner, you idiot! Stop!!”

Despite the dissuasion from Hadun and the security guards, Einor jumped over the barricade and slowly approached the Ogre.

The ogre, which had been muttering, stopped walking and turned its stupid face towards Einer.

Einer stopped just out of reach of the ogre’s club and paid attention to the things hanging on the ogre’s waist.

A steel cup and several other shiny metal travel miscellaneous items were strung on a thick, rough rope.

As expected, it attacked travelers somewhere and learned the taste of human meat.

You can’t send that guy back. It must be killed unconditionally.

Aner swung his sword around to attract the Ogre’s attention.

The Ogre, who was looking at this blankly, roared and hit the ground with his club.

“Damn it!”

Hadun and the security guards ducked behind the barricade at the blood-curdling roar.

But Einer stood motionless and stared at the ogre.

Did that bastard try to kill himself!?

Hadun fell into a huge conflict.

If Einer can’t stop him, the rest will eventually have to step in.

If we all charge in now, we can all fight together.

Then there is at least a small chance of winning!

Hadun shouted as the ogre trembled on the ground and rushed towards Einer.

“Everyone! Turn… 100 Million…?”

“Huh?!” “What is that?!”

From Noble mtl dot com

The security guards were speechless at the sight that unfolded before their eyes.

When Einor brushed past the charging Ogre in a way that can never be explained, one of the Ogre’s arms and knees fell off at once?!

When the ogre lost its balance and fell to the side with a loud noise, Einer, who was leisurely walking, struck down the ogre’s head with his sword.

A silence fell among the security guards, contrasting with the ogre’s loud death.

After kicking the Ogre’s head and confirming that it was completely dead, Einer returned to Hadun.

“Captain.”

“Uh, uh…?”

“Reward vacation and early work leave”

Hadun nodded his head foolishly, his eyes fixed on the ogre’s corpse gushing out black and red blood.
