The White Dragon Emperor and the Shield Hero

Chapter 5

At a distant place.

Some cloaked people are helping a purple haired woman, who is the queen of Melromarc: Mirellia, with her clothes.

Mirellia: So the king did all that?

She asks with a calm tone.

Cloaked Person 1: Yes, I believe that lady Malty has talked to him so he would do that.

Mirellia sighs.

Mirellia: How are the shield hero and his ally?

Cloaked Person 1: Seems like they got a demi-human from the slave market.

Mirellia: Is that so? That's a relief I must say.

Then she looks at the window.

Mirellia: However, the events of the summoning of the Cardinal Heroes are making impact in our kingdom and others. We must prevent the neighbours from meddling with our business, no matter what it takes.

Cloaked Person 1: Never fear my lady, we'll keep a watchful eye of the situation in the capital.

At the castle.

y/n, Naofumi, and Raphtalia were called again, but this time for the rewards for the waves.

Raphtalia notices y/n clenching his fists in anger at being here again, but she puts her hand in his hand, and he looks at her, and she smiles, and he nods, calming down.

Aultcray: For their efforts during the wave, and fufilling my request, each one will get a payment, sir Motoyasu will get 4000 silvers.

Motoyasu smirks and takes it.

Aultcray: sir Ren and sir Itsuki will get 3800 silvers.They take it.

Aultcray: The Shield Hero and White Dragon Emperor would get 500 silvers, but due to the damage from the fight yesterday, this will be counted and taken from them.

That makes Naofumi grit his teeth and y/n gets furious.

Albion: <THAT PIECE OF SHIT! HOW DARES HE DO THAT TO MY PARTNER AND HIS FRIEND?! HE'S NO KING! JUST A FILTHY TRASH!!!>

y/n: 'thought' Calm down Albion.

The dragon nods in his mindscape, but still angry.

Itsuki: I don't think that would work fine, your majesty, for a start, they only caused that due to Motoyasu challenging him, and it was unfair.

Motoyasu: What's unfair about it? I played far!

Ren: I don't think so, it was lucky that y/n knows defensive spells, if not, both would have lost...

Malty speaks up.

Malty: You are mistaken, sir Ren, and sir Itsuki, it was a far fight-

Ren: Even thought I was beat and humiliated, I saw you using a wind spell to trying to attack them, but it failed, even thought I lost, it was a fair fight thanks to y/n, besides, he, Naofumi, and Raphtalia were the ones to save the village attacked during the wave you should at least pay their deserved 500 silvers.

Malty grits her teeth.

Aultcray: Alright, I'll pay their deserved rewards.

Both get handed 500 silver coins, y/n takes it normally while Naofumi grabs it with hostility.

Aultcray: Now go away, I no longer have business with you.

Naofumi clenches his fist and is about to say something, but he sees y/n's hand in front of him, and the silver haired teen looks at him.
