So I'm a sheep.

"Besides handing out flyers, they are also obligated to lead the warriors to the registration area. Just look for them."

"Thank you so much, sir!"

The young girl had a sword at her waist and was leading a horse. As soon as she entered the city, many people surrounded her.

"Are you a brave warrior who wishes to sign up for the Dragon Slayer Expedition?"

Please accept this flyer.

"Could you please accept this flyer? Thank you!"

Before Sasha could agree or refuse, more than a dozen flyers were shoved into her hands.

The girl glanced at the top of the flyer and noticed that the reward promised by the king was quite generous.

Once the dragon is slain, you'll receive a fiefdom, a noble title, and plenty of gold.

Moreover, even if they ultimately fail, a large sum of compensation will be given to the Warriors' families.

'Much more sincere than Camilla'

Thinking this, Sasha walked up to a flyer distributor and said, "I'd like to register. Could you please take me to the registration point?"

"Ah, brave warrior, please follow me!"

As she followed the dispatcher, the girl took in the sights of the capital with great interest.

Bustling, lively, and full of energy!

Maureen once said that the evil dragon Fafnir had once caused a great disturbance in the capital.

More than a decade has passed, and the old scars have now completely disappeared.

........................................

"name"

"Saliye"

"Profession"

"Sword Saint"

"..."

Sasha couldn't read a single word, so the person who was helping her fill out the registration form paused, speechless, and changed 'Sword Saint' to 'Swordsman'.

What was your most glorious achievement?

"Slaying the Special Titan at Danlu Castle"

Huh?

Danlu City, the giant, could this be...?

"You are the kingdom's hero, Lord Saliye, the 'Lumberjack'?"

So what the hell is a lumberjack?!

“Not bad,” Sasha said, head held high.

Do you have any proof?

The girl was taken aback and asked, "What proof?"

"A certificate of heroism, you should have received it."

Yes, I did receive it. It was a badge, which was handed to me along with the territory document.

The key point is that it has a picture of a strong man (?) holding a large sword and chopping down a tree, which is probably His Majesty the King imagined.

Sasha didn't like that badge at all and had long since thrown it away in some corner of her room.

"I have the receipt, but I don't have it with me."

"Then you won't be able to enjoy the preferential treatment. Why don't you go home and bring over the Hero's Certificate?"

The viscountry is so far away...

The girl shook her head: "Just follow the procedure, I don't need any special treatment."

After registering, Sasha was taken to a hotel.

The selection process will not begin for another month, and His Majesty the King will cover all the food and lodging for all applicants during this period!

Of course, "all-inclusive" refers to the hotel and the standard meals provided by the hotel.

If you want to enjoy more, you'll have to pay for it yourself.

Nevertheless, the girl was quite satisfied. It was a rare opportunity to visit the capital, so she decided to take this chance to have a good time.

'Let's begin by sampling the delicacies of the capital.'

.........................................

I went shopping and tried all sorts of street food.

Sasha returned to the hotel satisfied after buying a thick scarf and several bags of high-quality soybeans.

Ok?

What's going on? Why are so many knights surrounding the entrance?

Some of them looked quite familiar...

As soon as Sasha was seen, someone ran into the hotel to report.

A short while later, a short man dressed in fine clothes strode out from inside.

"Oh dear, my viscount, how dare they treat you with such disrespect?"

"You've suffered, you've suffered!"

Pepin tiptoed and shook hands with Sasha, then immediately set about punishing the person in charge.

"My Lord, it's mainly because I forgot to bring my Hero Badge, it's no one else's fault."

Sasha quickly stopped her, saying, "Besides, this hotel is clean and tidy, it's quite nice."

"Hey, this lousy place is fine for those freeloaders, but it's not a place for you."

"Come, come, get in the carriage, I'll take you to the palace!"

"I still have a horse..."

"Let's move into the palace together and have people take good care of us."

After helping the young woman into the luxurious carriage, Pepin asked her, "Viscount, you've traveled all this way to the capital, surely you intend to join the dragon-slaying team?"

"good"

Sasha nodded and then thanked him, saying, "I also want to thank Lord Gong for helping me obtain the title of Viscount."

Volume 1: Chapter 680 Monster Buster

"It's nothing, not worth mentioning!"

Pepin waved his hand dismissively, then thought for a moment and asked, "By the way, Your Excellency, did you meet my envoy before you set off?"

"No, Lord Chancellor, you sent an envoy to my territory?"

"I knew it! I knew you were a bit too early."

Pepin laughed heartily: "It was about the matter of slaying the dragon that I wanted to ask you to share His Majesty's burdens, but I didn't expect that the Viscount would hear about it and come over on his own."

"His Majesty will surely remember your loyalty and bravery!"

After showering Sasha with sycophantic praise, Pepin said earnestly, "Viscount, I believe you are the kingdom's greatest hero and a hero of unparalleled stature. No one but you can shoulder the heavy responsibility of slaying the dragon."

"But some people just want to put the incompetent in power!"

Sasha blinked but didn't reply.

“Your Excellency, we’re not strangers, so I’ll be frank with you.”

"Of the three palace ministers, I, Pepin, am the most capable and have the greatest trust from His Majesty. Especially after I brilliantly resolved the giant calamity in Danlu City last time, those two guys are green with envy."

Pepin sighed, "Alas, what a momentous matter it is to slay a dragon! In their quest for favor, they actually recommended an incompetent man to His Majesty as the captain of the expedition."

The matter concerned slaying a dragon, and the girl immediately perked up.

"Your Excellency, what do you mean by 'incompetent person'?"

"Hmph, his name is Blake, a vulgar and rude man!"

"He has brute strength, but no brains at all."

I don't know what Black did to offend Pepin, but the Lord Mayor is making all sorts of sarcastic remarks.

However, 'Blake' sounds familiar...

"That Blake isn't some nobody, is he? I feel like I've heard of him somewhere before," Sasha asked, stroking her chin.

..............................................

"That happened a long time ago. There was a big flood in the south, and many villages were affected."

Pepin said casually, "A strange snake was taking advantage of the flood to eat people everywhere. When it swam to the village of Black, he used his strength to jump into the water and strangle the snake to death."

"It's nothing special, but it just so happened that this matter reached His Majesty's ears."

"His Majesty was worried about the flood at the time, and when he heard about this, he was in a good mood and awarded him a hero's badge."

Upon hearing this, Sasha finally remembered.

Black, the 'Monster Slayer', a renowned hero, a veteran!

This hero was unruly in his youth, and he was a notorious bully who terrorized the village.

One day, an elder in the village provoked him, saying, "Blake, you're so capable and impressive, but the monsters in the mountains are even more capable and impressive than you!"

Bullying villagers isn't a skill; if you're so capable, go bully monsters.

Blake was furious and, in a fit of rage, ran into the mountains.

A few days later, when everyone was clapping and cheering, thinking that Blake had been eaten by the monster, he carried the monster's corpse back to the village.
