"Mr. Monroe! Thank you for your help today!"
"If you hadn't been here, the entire Helinx, and even the Indam Federation, would have been doomed!"
“I’m really grateful!”
“… …”
"Yeah, yeah! Sure, sure!"
Faced with the overwhelming flattery from everyone, the corners of Monroe's mouth almost bent to the back of his head.
He was so proud of himself that he got carried away and acted like a righteous man.
"Everyone, you don't have to be so polite. Protecting the safety of the world is our Sword Saint's responsibility! Today, these evil scum are wreaking havoc on the Federation. Of course, I can't just stand by and watch!"
"As expected of the Sword Saint's disciple!"
"What a noble spirit! It's truly admirable!"
"Hmmmm!"
"We originally wanted to prepare a generous gift for you to thank you!"
"But I didn't expect Monroe to be so virtuous. If we simply repay him with money, it would be too insincere!"
"I propose that we build a plaza for Monroe to spread his heroic deeds."
"Okay! That's great! Let's do it!"
"Hmm... Hmm? A generous gift? Money???"
Monroe was stunned.
"Wait, what are you talking about—"
"Mr. Monroe, please do not refuse!"
"To praise the hero's reputation is also to provide guidance to the world, so you must not be modest!"
"Uh, no... I mean..."
"Don't worry, we will not only build a square for you, but we will also erect a statue for you!"
"Let everyone in Helinx see your true face!"
Monroe's face darkened and he complained madly in his heart.
Why would I break a statue?!
You can’t eat it!
I want money! I want money! Please repay me in the normal way! !!!
My precious sword is still waiting for me to redeem it!
However, the federal kings could not hear Monroe's voice.
"I don't mean what to do with that square... Uh... Actually, for me, there's something more important right now that I need to do quickly..."
"Is it something important to Monroe?"
"Should we do it quickly?"
The kings of the Federation looked at Monroe in confusion.
Seeing everyone looking at him, Monroe hesitated how to be shameless and ask them to change the reward into something in the ordinary sense.
However, no excuse has been thought of yet.
Someone in the crowd suddenly shouted:
"I understand! As expected of Lord Monroe, you have such a righteous heart—!"
“???”
Monroe looked at the man in confusion.
What do you understand?
"Mr. Monroe, the important matter you're referring to must be the members of the Great Demon Mercenary Group who are currently wreaking havoc throughout the city! As expected of you, you care more about the suffering people than honor!"
“???”
Wha...what?
Monroe was stunned.
Is that what I think?
Well, it is indeed important to completely resolve the current crisis, but——
What I was going to say...
As Monroe fell into chaos, the surrounding hype became even more enthusiastic.
"I see! I didn't expect Monroe to be so magnanimous!"
"You are truly worthy of being called Your Excellency!"
"We are still stuck in such superficial ideas as honor, but His Excellency Monroe cares about the people. We are truly ashamed!"
"Mr. Monroe has truly convinced us!"
"I propose! Let us follow Lord Monroe and completely eradicate the evil of Helinx!"
"good!!!"
For a time, the morale of the federal army was high.
Then Monroe was confused and surrounded by the federal army.
They rushed towards the lower-level abandoned mercenaries who were still wreaking havoc in various parts of the city and had actually been abandoned by the top leaders of the mercenary group.
After several hours of clearing, all the battles in Helinx came to an end...
"ah???"
etc... ...
Me... ...where's my reward?
Where is my return in the ordinary sense?!
