Isekai ni kanaderu densetsu ~toki wo tomeru mono~ Chapter 8 (1/2)

「You have come. Make yourself comfortable.」

「If you insist.」

Right now, Sou is in the private room where the King invited him to. Opposite to him are three men, in the center is an overweight middle age man with a long Caesar-like beard that couldn’t hide his effeminate smile. In his right and left are two elderly men, one with a mole on his forehead and the other wore a white robe. Aside from the King, Moses and Sou, the minister-like person with a mole on his forehead is also present in the room.

Is this some kind of punishment game? If only the princess is here, there will be at least some salvation……

「You are called Saotome? Do you know the reason why you have been called?」

「Yeah. It’s because of my ability.」

「You don’t possessed any special ability nor magic, even though you are a being summoned as a hero.」

「Unfortunately, it is so.」

This detestable old man King. He’s so fascinated about me having no ability. Actually, if I stop the time, I can easily pull that Caesar-like beard of his. But I couldn’t do it because it’ll bring me troubles later.

Still, did this King called me here to personally say those sarcastic remarks? This person has a lot of free time.

「Do you know how hard it is to save this continent by subduing the great demon king?」

「Ha~a」

What’s this old man trying to say?

「And I heard that you don’t want to fight.」

「Yes, if possible.」

Actually, I don’t dislike the fighting itself. I just don’t want to become a p.a.w.n that you can move whenever you please. But, let’s play along for now.

「Iya~a, I’m not an evil person. I don’t want to force a powerless human being to fight.」

「You mean, I don’t need to fight?」
