Chapter 7
“You’re the hero among heroes! What is your unique skill, tell us!”
The king pointed his scepter at me.
“Uh…”
I answered cautiously.
“Maybe [Alchemy] isn’t… a unique skill, is it?”
As soon as I said that, the air in the room froze. The men with gold buttons glanced at the king. The man in the robe sighed and pointed his staff at my status screen. The green frame floated over to the king.
Upon seeing it, the king’s face turned crimson.
“What is this! Not only do you lack a unique skill, but even your only skill is useless!”
The king slammed the end of his scepter into the carpet.
“How did someone like you end up in the hero party…?”
In stark contrast to the angry king, [Destruction God] Yamamoto smirked as he pointed at me.
“So, this guy’s the dud, huh?”
“Man, that’s so sad.”
[Witch] Tanaka laughed mockingly. The king’s eyelid twitched.
“Gluel!”
“Yes.”
The man in the robe, apparently named Gluel, pulled out a cloudy white orb and pointed it at me.
“A failure like you is fit to be devoured by monsters. You’ll be banished to the Forest of Demons.”
The room stirred. Anxiety gripped me. Monsters? Devoured? Something was about to happen.
“The Forest… of Demons…?”
