Volume 1. Chapter 5. The Fire of Vengeance.

They eavesdrop on the conversation, during which Noel asks Tami to kidnap Elia and force Elia into becoming a courtesan for the nobles.

This conversation made Cini angry. Rii asked his friend to be patient until Tami left and left Noel alone.

"Then what about the woman who helped Cindy escape? Have you punished her?"

Neol wants to make sure that Tami has punished the woman who helped Cindy escape.

"Yes, my lord, following your orders. I pierced a small piece of very hot iron between her nails."

Tami said that he had carried out the orders asked of him by his master.

"Good, make that girl suffer more."

"Yes, my lord."

Understanding his master's intentions, he left Noel alone in the warehouse where all the nobles' possessions were stored.

Noel walked over to one of the wooden boxes filled with gold, opened it, and touched the gold.

"Only gold restores my anxiety,"

"I would love to kidnap Princess Lumina, but she doesn't yet have the charm to captivate the public's hearts."

Noel pulled his hand away from all the gold he touched, closed the wooden box again, and walked away.

After only a few steps, Noel fell as if hitting a pole, and his face felt quite painful.

"Can't get out?"

Noel heard someone else's voice from behind and was surprised to see three foreign young men appearing from behind him.

"How can foreigners like you enter a guarded place—"

Cini immediately kicked Noel's face and made him fall to the ground and groan in pain.

"You insolent brat! How dare you strike a man of influence in this city!"

Just finished speaking, Cini punched Noel's face in anger.

"Influential people, huh?"

Cini said while beating Noel until he was black and blue.

"Stop. I'll give you money and women if you stop hitting me."

Noel offered Cini money and women to stop his beatings, but that made Cini hit his face even harder.

"Calm down, Cini."

Rii asked his friend to calm down a little.

"How can I be calm if this man is an errand boy for someone who stabbed Elia!" Cini said angrily.

"At least let us ask first."

Listening to Vail's words, Cini stopped his hand, which was hitting Noel's face. He moved away a little so as not to get emotional again.

Vail lowered his body a little to make it easier to talk to Noel, who was lying helplessly.

"....What...?"

Noel was a little irritated by Vail's gaze.

"Listen, old man, I'm not as good as the person who hit you. If you answer honestly, I'll make sure you won't die."

Feeling that his life was threatened, Noel couldn't do anything.

"I understand and promise to keep that savage man away from me."

Noel said in an annoyed voice and pointed at Cini.

"Tell us, where the girl you kidnapped is."

"The girl? What you mean?"

"Don't play dumb. We heard all your conversations with your subordinates. Are you sure you don't want to tell?"

Noel chose to keep his mouth shut, not wanting to lose the comfort woman who had been bought quite expensively from a village.

"You better remember my previous warning, Mr. Noel. Or you will be killed by the hands of our friends today."

Vail once again gave a warning.

"I understand that girl is currently serving the nobleman Senor."

Noel answered with trembling lips, afraid of the threat he really felt.

"Where...?!"

"She is in the rooms with silver doors because those rooms are only for nobles."

"I will believe your words, but if you are caught lying. We'll burn you alive, whether it's in front of your family or not."

Vail got up, and they went to look for a room with a silver door among the hallways filled with room doors.

"You commoner, I will repay your actions someday."

Noel muttered angrily as he tried to get up. He felt a thick aura of presence. It was the demon king Derf who came from the darkness.

"My lord!"

Noel immediately knelt and lowered his head when he saw his master appear.

"You showed me something good, Noel."

The demon king thanked his human subordinate, who caught the attention of the three heroes.

"As a reward, I will give you an unimaginable surprise."

"Thank you, my lord, you are so—"

Suddenly, the floor where Noel was was splashed with blood, and his body slowly fell.

"I killed them before the summoning even began… So how could the heroes be here?"

The demon king was so curious and amazed that he soon smiled happily.

"Interesting, let's see the hero who came to this world by himself."

They ran and found the silver door in question, opened it, and saw the noble Senor whipping Cindy for refusing to serve him.

"Stop!"

Through her blurry vision, Cindy saw three men approaching as if hearing her heart's voice asking for help.

"Who are you?"

Senor stopped the punishment and stared at the three young men in a harsh, angry tone.

"You're not Noel's subordinates. Who and how did you get in here?"

Senor walked over to the small table, putting down the whip used to punish Cindy.

"Leave him to me…"

"We understand, he actions are unforgivable."

Senor remained silent, watching as one of the young men approached, released Cindy from the rope, and took her away.

"Go away, my mood is bad because of that girl."

Senor asked Vail and Rii to leave before his mood got worse with their presence.

"Go away?"

"For all the things you have done to that girl?"

"Your actions must—"

Before finished speaking, Senor took the whip and attacked Vail. Brushing off the tip of the whip with one hand, leaving a red mark.

"Listen to my words until the end, old man..."

Vail was so angry because the noble had attacked with a whip.

"I guessed you weren't weak. I'm sure you've killed the soldiers guarding this place."

Senor was a little happy because he managed to injure one of the two young men.

"Vail,"

"I understand."

Vail understood what his friend meant. He stormed off, fuming. He didn't accept being whipped by a stranger, especially since the person didn't listen to what he said.

In the middle of the corridor and quite far from the room, Vail screamed in pain from the nobleman's whip.

"Alright, noble Senor... let's finish this before morning."

"I agree with you."

They both fell silent and stared at each other for a moment before launching attack magic that burned the room.

Cini, who was on the surface, saw black smoke coming out through the air duct connected to Noel's house.

Meanwhile, the noble laughed happily to find a foreign young man who was able to rival his strength.

"I didn't expect there to be a talented young man here,"

Senor stopped his attack and spoke a little to his opponent.

"It would be a shame if I kill you. Young man, what is your name?"

"My name is not that cheap to tell."

"Your nature is so perfect. Join my family and marry my four daughters."

Senor offered his daughter as a negotiating tool so that Rii would become a member of his family.

"I am not interested in that offer."

"I already knew you would reject it, then don't regret it in hell."

The courtyard of Noel's residence exploded, and Cini and Vail saw their friend flying into the sky with dozens of flames chasing him.

Taking advantage of the situation, the nobleman Senor also flew and attacked his enemy again.

"Why, why my power can't hit you...!?"

Senor was shocked and tried to attack Rii with his great strength, but his enemy always dodged it easily.

"That's because your attacks are so slow,"

Stopped chasing and attacking after hearing Rii's words.

"Slow, you say!"

"Are you done?"

Rii's words annoyed and angry Senor. 

"You're so rude, how dare you insult—"

Senor stopped speaking, looking at the giant ball above Rii's head.

"Impossible. How did you create such a big fireball?!"

"It's not difficult. We just need to imagine what kind of attack to use. And they will appear."

Senor was speechless and wondered who the young man he was fighting was.

"Prepare to feel the pain of this fire, noble Senor."

One of Rii's hands pointed at the nobleman Senor. The fireball shot out and pushed the nobleman to the ground before exploding.

"It seems the battle is over,"

Cini said after seeing Rii defeat the nobleman.

"We should leave before anyone sees."

"You're right."

Cini agreed with Vail's words. They immediately went to the inn to avoid witnesses.

Unbeknownst to them, the demon king had witnessed the fight.

"Really, this is really entertaining and catches my attention."

The demon king disguised himself as a resident of the city and left.
