[Discontinued] The Hero That Lost Everything

Chapter 4:Loss

Naofumi stood up then looked around himself processing on all the things that had just occurred. He stood not speaking a word,just standing thinking on all the things.

As he stood there he felt the sudden presence of a slut behind him. He then felt breathe hitting his ear,and the sound of a female voice. He put his head down allowing his hair to overlay his eyes as he heard the female voice.

"Sucks that you lost your party member. Guess you'll have to go back to traveling solo again." The female voice said to him before she let out a laugh.

Naofumi only stood there listening to this,but as he did he suddenly heard the voice of the King.

"Congratulations Motoyasu. It's wonderful that my daughter Malty decided to party with you." The king said to the "winner".

Once he finished talking Naofumi looked to where King was and noticed bitch move towards Motoyasu. As he looked he again began to think about the events. Then as if it was like flint and steel he realized the truth like a spark.

He pieced all of the clues and events together. He had pieced the whole planning that both bitch and the King had done. Realizing all of this nonsense he felt his blood begin to boil and the more he thought about it the boiler the blood got.

He figured that since Malty was the daughter of the King she could get to do anything,even falsely accusing an innocent man. Then with her dad being the King he could say the final decision and deciding the final verdict.

While he was thinking and realizing the situation all of the citizens viewing had yet again let their minds open.

"We've never should've summoned the Shiled Hero." said one individual.

"We don't need the shield. We're fine with the other three." another individual let out.

"The shield should be executed for all the wrong that he's done." a third individual said.

Naofumi had heard all of these comments and was again thinking to himself about one thing.

Why did they hate Shield? Why was the Shield depicted as negative? Was it always like this?

Hearing all of these comments,along with the realization Naofumi felt his blood get more and more boiled. Then out of no where he thought he saw green smoke appear cloud around him. Once the smoke settled he opened his eyes and saw he was in a dark,but empty room.

While he was there he looked forward and spotted a few knights,a mage,and his companion,Raphtalia. While he viewed them he had saw that the slave crest was being removed,but before he could do anything the process had finished.

He saw as the mage stepped aside then now visible was Raphtalia and behind her was her,Bitch. He saw the woman he hated so much get closer to his companion's ear.

"Be sure to thank Motoyasu for such a wonder gift." the red haired bitch said to the raccoon girl.

Naofumi then raised his arm and reached out his hand to his companion,but once he did Raphtalia then turned around. He still reached his arm out to her,but as she took a few steps she stopped then looked back to him and opend her mouth.

"This is goodbye,Naofumi." she said leaving his sight.

Naofumi now having heard and witnessed this he lowered his hand then started to shake. Then from the surge of emotions that were caused by the events that had unfolded he reached for the Shield. He then grabbed a hold of it,took it off and threw it at the abyss that was the room.

"T-that's it. I'm done!" He said before he turned around and ran.

But as he ran a sudden glow appeared on his hand which blinded him,but as it dimmed he looked and saw the Shield again on his arm.
