This adventurer is overly righteous.

Chapter 136 Return

The journey back to camp for Kroya and his group went relatively smoothly. They only encountered a few magical beasts that were attracted by the smell of blood, but Kroya easily dealt with them, turning them into an extra bonus.

Along the way, they sang songs, and Merian, as a bard, displayed a beautiful voice that deserved applause. At the same time, she also enthusiastically wrote poems based on her experiences on the journey.

However, when the words "white hero" began to appear in her poems, Croya asked her not to read them aloud, as it made him feel somewhat embarrassed.

As they walked, the shadow of death from the previous night was completely left behind. Snow no longer symbolized death; they began to appreciate its purity and clarity, their steps became exceptionally light, and they arrived at the campsite earlier than expected.

"Let's say you have ninety-six gold coins."

The officer in charge of collecting the adventurers' loot carefully examined what Kroya and his group had brought back. He could tell that the loot was rotten to varying degrees, which affected the recycling price; otherwise, it could have been more expensive.

"I remember saying, 'Thank you for Count Reginald's generosity,'" Kroya said naturally.

"Not bad, you said what I wanted to say, white guy." The officer paused, then suddenly found Kroya particularly pleasing to the eye.

"The area responsible for handling the victims' remains is on the other side. After confirming their identities, you can find someone to collect your money." He added...

He was reminded that he had seen that Kroya and his group had brought a coffin.

"Thank you very much." Kroya thanked him again, taking the money bag from the other party and tossing a gold coin to the elite adventurer employed by the Demon Sword Warren.

"This is your payment."

"As for you," Kroya turned to the bard Merian, "aren't you going to find your companions?"

"I want to join your team now, but I'll just be watching from the sidelines," Merian said, finding Kroya to be a very special and attractive person.

Moreover, being by his side would allow him to witness the punishment of the Demon Sword Warren...

It was a slightly wicked idea, so Merian didn't voice it.

"All right."

After dealing with people unrelated to the team, Kroya took the body of the stranger adventurer to the place the officer had pointed out, where there were several people dressed in white.

"Is this an arrow wound?"

They examined the body.

"However, he had already been bitten to death by some kind of monster before the arrow pierced his head."

They muttered to themselves.

After they finished dealing with the adventurer's body and washed their hands, they began to say, "Alright, come here and register. What is your relationship with the deceased? Where did you find his body? We need to give his family an explanation. Next, this body will be transported away with the monster transport convoy. If we're lucky, it will be sent home."

They added, "And what about the adventurer's personal belongings? If we were to auction off the adventurer's personal items, a portion of the proceeds would go to his family, and some, or perhaps none at all, depending on the transporter's conscience..."

'

"So, you have to pay extra?" Croa asked, "in exchange for better transportation services."

"That's right, that's what I mean." They nodded and swore to be reliable, so Kroya handed them a gold coin.

Your actions will comfort the families of the victims; this quality deserves praise.

[Magic attribute slightly increased]

"As expected of Mr. Kroya..." Merian watched Kroya from the side. She did not sense any exaggeration in his performance. His behavior was genuine.

He was truly willing to pay a gold coin as a reward for properly handling the funeral arrangements of a stranger who had died.

After witnessing the immense power that Kroya displayed when defeating the evil spirit, Merian couldn't help but become curious about him.

He was so different from any hero she had ever seen before that it was refreshing and made her want to see more.

"Next, I'll have to go and cause trouble for the Demon Sword Warren..." Merian thought to himself.

"Now everyone, go and rest."

After Kroya finished distributing the money, each person in the team received twenty gold coins and eighty silver coins, and then they planned to disperse and go to rest.

"Are you still planning to eat that weirdo's food this time?" Carter was still going to invite Kroya to dinner, but the other person walked to another stall that was almost empty. "Your tastes have become very strange lately, I'm starting to worry about you."

"He just recognized me and waved at me." Kroya waved his hand helplessly. "It's hard to refuse, and besides, the food there actually tastes alright, not as strange as it looks..."

After saying that, Kroya and his group parted ways, but Merian followed behind Kroya.

"I thought you'd go after Warren the Demon Sword first," Merian asked, sitting down, and turned to the terrifying-looking chef. "I eat the same food as him."

As Kroya looked at today's menu, he slowly said, "That's too hasty. Besides, he might come to us first, sincerely begging for forgiveness and wanting to make amends for his mistake." Kroya put down the menu. "Although the probability of this happening is so small that I'm somewhat pessimistic, I think we should still give Warren the Demon Sword some time to reflect and admit his mistake."

Then, Croja ordered by pointing to the menu, which the chef noted down.

"Generally speaking, if it's about revenge, the more decisive you are, the better, to avoid any other mistakes," Merian said thoughtfully, focusing his attention on Kroya's words.

"Warren the Demon Sword can't escape. As long as he's unwilling to relinquish his heroic title and as long as he remains in the camp, he can't get away."

"Kroya said calmly."

"He hired eight elite adventurers to go out with him, but seven of them died. Warren the Demon Sword cannot escape this responsibility. As long as we report the situation to Earl Reginald, he will surely be punished. Moreover, he broke his oath, and the gods will be watching him."

"If he remains obstinate, I will challenge him to a duel to fulfill God's will."

Send the Demon Sword Warren to the land of the dead in the north.

Duels are a way for adventurers to resolve conflicts. Generally, they only do this when they have a life-or-death feud, and it is perfectly acceptable to kill one's opponent in a duel.

Given Count Reginald's love of watching a spectacle, he would never refuse any duel invitation.
