Doitsu Gun Shoukan! ~Yuusha-tachi ni Subete o Ubawareta Dragon Shoukanshi, Moto Saikyou wa Fukushuu o Chikau~ - Chapter 4

Nasser slammed the floor in frustration as he tried to get up.

 

The skin on his hand peeled off and blood spattered, but he didn’t care.

 

He was angrier, frustrated and disappointed than the currention situation he’s in.

“Shit, Fuck!”

 

That little hero!

 

That bitch!

 

Shit!

 

Shiiit!!

 

Fucccccckkk!!!

 

“I’m gonna kill you, I swear!!”

 

“Haa….Ha……”

 

After breathing hard, Nasser finally had time to look around him.

 

Before that, there was something …… that stimulated his sense of smell.

 

It smells musty and full of manure.

 

“Is this ………… a prison?”

 

When Nasser noticed this,he realized that he had wooden shackles on his feet. They were engraved with complex spells.

 

It’s probably the kind that interferes with summoning techniques.

 

He tried to summon a dragon, but it didn’t respond at all.

 

After that, all Nasser could do was ask himself.

 

Why did this happen?

 

Why did the hero Kōji  do this to him?

 

Why did Alicia betray him?

 

Nasser has been cuckolded and in a situation that he doesn’t understand.

 

Nasser’s ears catch the sound of footsteps as he ponders. There is no sign of alarm

 

“Nasser Virginia. Get out.”

 

It seems that he is the jailer.

 

Nasser doesn’t remember his face, but he must be a regular soldier because he is wearing the official equipment of the Royal Army.

 

He did as he was told and left the prison, but the shackles made it very difficult to walk.

 

“Hey, what’s going on? Why am I in jail?”

 

He tried to talk to the jailer, but he was unresponsive. He simply dragged Nasser away.

 

Then they came to a bright spot.

 

That bright spot was…..

 

“Spires and thick walls. The king’s opulent palace…..a royal castle!?”

 

The entrance is guarded by strong soldiers.

 

It is not even a detention center for patrolmen in the castle town.

 

“What’s going on?”

 

Unable to understand what was happening, Nasser continues to be dragged out and taken to the square.

 

There was an open-air reviewing area, with a small number of Kingsguards in expensive armour standing guard over the nobleman behind them.

 

And there is ────.

 

“Your Majesty, the King!?”

 

Nasser had seen him a few times when he was in the army.

 

He was awarded a medal when he defeated the Devil King’s army with his dragons, and even received a medal on his chest.

 

So it was natural for him to know the king’s face. No, in the first place, every citizen should know him.

 

“Walk faster!”

 

Nasser is pushed roughly by the jailer and staggers forward.

 

It was a strange situation, but it seemed that he was going to be brought before the king.

 

The king is on the highest platform, looking down at Nasser with a stern face.

 

And under the platform is ────.

 

“Kōji, you bastard!!!”

 

In front of Nasser’s eyes, there was the hero, Kōji, with Alicia as his lady-in-waiting.

 

“Be quiet, prisoner.”

 

It was the king’s voice with a dignified sound that admonished the furious Nasser.

 

It was enough to make Nasser’s blood run cold in an instant. Even though he is a Dragon Summoner, he was once a common soldier. Now he’s a citizen, an adventurer.

 

For Nasser, the powers the king had was enough to make him shudder.

 

He found himself dropping to one knee and hanging his head…

 

“……Nasser Virginia, Class A adventurer, is that correct?”

 

The king’s voice speaks cheerfully from the rostrum, saying that he is prepared to have an audience with Nasser, though he does not know why.

 

“Ha! You’re right, your majesty. I used to be a Dragon Summoner of the Summoner Company of the Royal Army Field Division.”

 

“Hmmm …… I know what you’ve done ──── Let’s put on our best face.”

 

There was nothing in the king’s voice to chastise Nasser, and it was good news for him that he knew about his achievements.

 

He might as well complain of the infidelity of the brave Kōji and Alicia, who were now looking at Nasser with a grinning, condescending smile under the platform.

 

But Nasser didn’t know that, it was the king who summoned the hero.

 

“He will listen to me.”

 

“O king—-”

 

“Nasser Virginia. You are hereby arraigned on charges of treason.”

 

“Ha?”

 

“What…… now? Agh!”

 

One of the soldiers struck Nasser from behind and silenced him when he asked back.

 

The impact on his head made him fall on his hands.

 

“Nasser! You’re in the presence of the king!”

 

As the voice reached Nasser’s ears, he remembered who that voice belonged to.

 

“Teh, Guild Master!?”

 

An adventurer’s guild funded by and for veterans.

 

Nasser belongs to it and is in charge of it.

 

The guild master is also known as the “Great Master” because of his stocky physique and his appearance like a heroic warrior.

 

In addition, it is said that he is the descendant of the sword saint who fought with the heroes a thousand years ago.

 

Although he is no longer known for his skill with the sword, he was still famous for his bravery during his time in the army.

 

In fact, he’s an ex-commander, and was once a general in the kingdom’s army.

 

But he is still much stronger than the average adventurer.

“Ma-Master! What are you doing? That one…… That’s the one!”

 

A jittery Nasser points at the brave Kōji  and Alicia and screams at them.

 

“What a shame…..so this is the end of his Dragon Summoning.”

 

The king shakes his head in sorrow.

 

“We are sorry. O king. Please continue.”

 

With the guildmaster holding him down, there was no way for Nasser to move.

 

Nasser is a summoner. He usually fights with summoned animals. He can use a sword as well as a soldier, but he is not a master.

 

“Hmm……I will now read the complaint. Nasser Virginia has been violently controlling his wife Alicia and forcing her to engage in dangerous adventuring activities. He accused her of adultery and assaulted in public the hero Kōji, who defended Alicia, and attempted to take his life. This is therefore considered a first class crime of treason…”

 

Having said all this at once, the king looks quietly at Nasser.

 

“W-what? What am I supposed to do?” 

 

“What are you talking about? It’s horseshit, my king!”

 

Nasser appeals desperately while the guild master holds him down.

 

“Violence towards my own wife?……Never, not once!　That is an accusation on me that I’m forcing her to work as an adventurer!”

 

“…..go on”

 

“I assaulted Kōji in public? It is true that I did beat him up in the guild. But it is also true that he confessed to having been sneaking with my wife Alicia, insulted me in public and deliberately provoked me in the guild!!”

 

That’s right. That’s the truth!

 

The king listened, and once he had meditated.

 

Nasser has admitted that he had tried to assault the hero,────, but it is certainly not a compliment to lust after a man’s wife.

 

The king glanced at the hero.

 

“Is there any evidence of infidelity? Who will testify to that?”

 

“HA?!”

 

At this very moment, Nasser’s wife and the hero are making out under the platform where the king is sitting.

 

“Well, that’s….that’s what as you see. Isn’t that a story you can understand?”

 

The king stroked his rich beard.

 

“Hmm. Yes, they are quite intimate. But wouldn’t it be strange if they were living under the same roof?　To me it looks more like skinship…….”

 

Ha,Haaaaaaaaaaaa?!

 

No, no, no, look!

 

He is now talking to Alicia!

 

They’re closer than ever!

 

Alicia is staring at the hero at close range, her eyes are watering, and she is saying sweet nothings about love!

 

“It’s skinship.”

 

“Skinship.”

 

The King and the Guildmaster nodded their heads.

 

Furthermore,

 

“How does the Chief Priest see it?”

The king turned briefly, and a young man in priestly garb, who had been discreetly standing behind him, stepped forward and said

 

“Yes – our Bible, which is the religion of the saints, has no specific criteria for infidelity. And from what I’ve seen, I’m inclined to think it’s skinship…”

 

Ehhh? Eeeeeeeeh?

 

No

 

Eh?

 

No, no, no, no, no, no!

 

“Well, if that’s the case, then ──── the hero Kōji and my wife Alicia have a child together!　That’s what they told me!”

 

This was no longer a sad story. His dignity has been stripped. While he was away, Nasser’s wife befriended a man who was staying with them and even had a child.

 

This is a traumatic experience that will not only make him a laughing stock for the rest of his life, but will also make it impossible to trust his wife – or any woman – ever again.

 

“Hmm ……! Well, congratulations ──── if that’s the case. It’s a dreadful situation indeed. Chief Priest.”

 

“Ha! It is true that if you have a……child, it is considered unfaithful and an adultery…Ooo Is the child from the hero? Mm, Kōji”

 

The king and the chief priest begin to squirm.

 

The hero and Alicia……..

 

They are very close.

 

I mean, what is this?

 

This is already a definite ────….

 

“Do you have any proof that the child is the son of a hero? What do you think, chief priest?”

 

“How I wish it were the child of the hero! If it’s true he were husband and wife, though he dominates his wife with violence, is it not his child?”

 

HA?!!!

 

How can that be?

 

………… It’s sad to say that ──.

 

I haven’t seen my wife in ────…… a long time.

 

Kuuu…..for being a man and crying out in frustration.

 

Stop it! You’d be the joke by the king and the chief priest!

 

“Ahm, Nassar, In any case, it is not right that you should raise your hand against a hero who is the backbone of our war effort and then try to kill him!”

 

“Kukuk ……! It’s just as the king said. A rare warrior sent by the gods – the hero Koji. It’s the work of a demon king to make the hero disappear.”

 

The chief priest also suddenly speaks up and starts to talk a lot.

 

I’m a …… demon king now!?

 

“By the way, Nasser. The only motive for your crime is the hero’s infidelity……But before that, you met his wife Alicia…”

 

Seeing the hero and Alicia holding hands without fear of being seen.The king scratched his cheek.

 

“I heard from your wife, Alicia, that you were in financial trouble before the marriage and that you were a slave. She testified that she was forced to marry you on the basis of that!”

 

Huh!

 

Alicia, how can you even say such a thing?

 

How can you say such an impossible thing about me?

 

“That’s right. It pains us to think that we have blessed you in the church under the teaching of the saints. We did not know that the marriage was based on false love.”

 

The chief priest laments with exaggerated gestures.

 

Moreover,

 

“As a guildmaster, I feel ashamed that I should have paid more attention to the financial problems of the adventurers.”

 

The Guildmaster, who is holding Nasser down, says something strange.

 

At this point, even the current Nasser can see what’s going on.

 

This was all a setup.
