After the Hero’s Death, What Will Save the World? —Money!?

Torao, a merchant with an unpopular profession, was a member of an S-rank adventurer party. However, being mediocre in combat and caught embezzling funds, he hears:
“You’re fired!”
And just like that, he’s expelled from the party.

In the southeastern part of the Islaria continent was a large country.
The Great Sin City-State of Greed, home to one of the world’s seven largest labyrinths, the Great Sin Labyrinth of Greed, was bustling with adventurers today.
The territory of Greed was a holy land for adventurers.
With a high occurrence of labyrinths and a significant demand for adventurers, the rewards from the guild were substantial, attracting many adventurers seeking their livelihoods.… Read more
“Frankly, your life is not a suitable collateral. I can control the life of someone far more capable than you. You have no value to me.”
She pointed her finger at Ur’s chest.
“Show me your worth, and I’ll consider your proposal. I’ll accept your desire to buy back your sister.”
Of course, there would be a deadline, she said. Ur let out a deep sigh. He couldn’t celebrate with raised hands, but things seemed better than resigning himself to the situation… he felt.… Read more
I decided to go for some casual sword strikes to end this simulated battle.
However, just as I leaped, something gleamed at the corner of my vision.
Without time to ponder what it was, I instinctively reacted.
—It was probably a poison needle shot from something like a blowgun.
At an unbelievable speed, it accurately targeted Yuzuriha.
Even if she noticed, swinging her sword in mid-air left her unable to avoid the inevitable hit. … Read more
After various twists and turns, the achievement of defeating the wandering white-haired vampire became that of “Miss Yuzuriha of the Sakuragi Duke family and her companions.” It’s a joyous occasion.
However, in return, I couldn’t escape from escorting Yuzuriha-san at the outdoor party.
“At present, Yuzuriha doesn’t have a fiancé, and among the comrades who repelled the devil, you’re the only man. So, it’s natural for you to escort her.”
“But in such cases, shouldn’t a relative of Yuzuriha-san escort her…?” … Read more
2 (Toko’s point of view)
Just a few days ago, I started frequenting the Duke’s house.
While Toko had known the Duke as a noble when she was a princess, their relationship was only limited to brief conversations at noble parties.
But now, they were in the midst of secret discussions in the Duke’s study until late at night.
On that day, when Toko, who had come in secret, was welcomed in the study by the Duke,
he brewed tea himself, making a point to show that it was safe to drink. … Read more
Chapter 3: Triumphant Return Party
1
Not long after returning from the tumultuous journey, I received a summons from the Sakuragi Duke’s residence.
What now?
Perhaps I was to take responsibility for the mishap involving the duke’s daughter, leading to some punishment.
I braced myself for the worst, maybe even ritual suicide.
At all costs, I must make sure that Suzuha will not suffer any consequences…! … Read more
“No way! That’s impossible! I’ve never heard of a human surviving an encounter with the wandering white-haired vampire. Besides, encountering that demon, which is said to appear every few years to decades somewhere in this vast world, twice is astronomical odds!,”
“But we did encounter the wandering white-haired vampire before. That’s a fact,”
” …… Seriously …… ”
“Since the day our village was destroyed by the white-haired vampire, my brother has been trying to become stronger like a madman.… Read more
From Yuzuriha’s observation, Suzuha would completely follow her brother’s lead.
And her brother seemed to hold a fundamental belief that most nobles are tyrannical.
So, if he receives poor treatment from irrelevant or unfamiliar nobles, it might not be a big issue.
However.
If any nobles they thought were friends turned out to be abusive or arrogant towards them,
or if the nobles underestimated them and treated badly—
Those siblings might easily abandon the country. … Read more
Ur and his sister, in her snake form, tilted their heads in unison. The bald dwarf who had taken Ur’s sister as collateral for their debt, Lugola, was taken away by the knights. Ur hoped that in the process, their debt might also disappear.
“No, that’s not possible.”
However, the golden-haired girl shook her head with a smile.
“Why not?”
“Because your sister’s ownership belongs to us.”
“To you?”
“[Golden Phoenix]. My father’s guild.”
Just when Ur thought the person in charge here had disappeared, the higher-up appeared.… Read more
