Back up Notes~????

Shield and Zero

How we were all transported to this world.

How surprising it was to be in this magical event.

How it was exciting to be a part of the summoned heroes.

To be praised.

To be wanted.

To be of help.

To be able to experience something entirely new.

To be able to feel a change of self to something special.

..Bullshit. Despite my awestruck mind of experiencing the wonders of another world, I was shunned and treated unfairly from day one.

The unfairness that everyone showed me.

How I was tricked.

How I was set up.

Framed for a crime I didn't commit, banished, and given status as a defective hero.

A hero that was deemed a criminal.

And because of that Bitch, it later evolved, spreading lies to everyone and giving me the false title of "Shield Demon". I have to crawl my way out of that hell hole she dug up for me while fighting the Waves.

As far as I could remember, was there a time where were efficient backups came to help? The useless Trash would just sit on his throne and order us around. Not giving us any proper assurance other than money.

While the Bitch herself stood by, trying to look oblivious to her party as if she isn't plotting anything. Kind eyes that say she wouldn't lie, betray or scam anyone just to get what she wants.

That damn two-faced Bitch. Who knows what she's even saying to Motoyasu?

What, is she saying that the Slave seal was defective? That idiot has got to have some brains in his head if he still believes that wrench. Heck even her highness, the Queen herself already approved of its effectiveness..

I breathe out a long exhausting sigh.

If it weren't for the Queen, I might've tried murdering those two.

I look down at the patch of grass beneath me. Despite the hills' calming environment, I'm aware that this was only temporary peace. Not once have I dropped my guard because I know sooner or later those two will be cooking up something annoying again.

A saying once said that a child often gets their traits from their parents. That Bitch clearly didn't inherit her highness, Queen Mirellia's personality, or any remorse at heart. Either that Trash spoiled that Bitch rotten. It's enough to actually deduce that the Bitch was clearly devilish since the day that Bitch was born.

Down the depths of their greed, I wonder how to what extent they'll continue to reap until they reach their dreadful downfall. Just what's causing those bastards to hate the Shield? Just what did the previous Shield Hero do in this world?

Recounting what I've faced so far, I fought so many of the Waves when I realized that the real enemies were inside all along. The likes of Trash, Bitch, and the Church of the 3 Heroes. Heck, I may as well not trust anyone at this point.

Then there's..

Lar'c and Theresa...

They believe that killing us will help save their world.

So, beyond those waves are different other worlds? Well, this is better than what the Trash said.

I don't want to kill them. Even if they try and attack me with killing intent. Will there be a moment when I'll end up killing them with my own hands? That's also a possible alternative but I won't cross that. Not today for that matter.
