“What the hell! Those guys just up and left, even though I’m supposed to be their party member!”
Licht was lashing out at his attendant.
The truth was, Licht had been kicked out of the royal castle.
His behavior was unbecoming of a prince, constantly making advances on princesses and ladies from other countries, nearly causing diplomatic incidents.
That’s why the King gave him the mission to defeat the Demon Lord alongside the Hero, hoping that seeing the world for a while would change his way of thinking.
He assigned him one attendant, but didn’t give him any money, fearing he would waste it.
Right now, Licht had no power as royalty.
Even if he relied on the King, he would just be ignored.
Licht, unaware of this, believed he was chosen for the Hero Party because of his skills.
After this, he would become the sole member of the former Hero Party, arbitrarily calling himself the strongest…
Licht returned to town and, despite having no money, entered a High-Class Restaurant and ordered an expensive course.
After finishing his meal, he reached into his pocket for money, finally realizing he had none.
“Tch, that’s right, I gambled it all away yesterday. Hey! Put it on my tab for today.”
“Understood.”
Licht had been coming here every day lately, so he was trusted.
They were sure he would pay them eventually, even if not today…
After finishing his meal, Licht headed to his usual Luxury Hotel.
However, he was stopped in front of the hotel.
“Sir, you need to pay your accommodation fee in advance…”
“What! I paid for several days upfront at the beginning.”
“Yes, but that ended the other day. Will you be extending your stay?”
“Tch, I see… but I don’t have any money right now. Hey, put it on my tab.”
“Sir… this isn’t a restaurant, you can’t put things on a tab at a hotel.”
“Shut up! Figure something out.”
“There’s nothing I can do. Please leave… If you continue to cause trouble here, I’ll call the Town Guard.”
“What part of me is causing trouble!”
“Raising your voice and shouting in front of the hotel is nothing but trouble. If you want to stay, please gather the money properly.”
“…I’ll remember your face. I hope you enjoy working miserably here for a few days!”
Licht reluctantly stayed at a cheap Inn in town.
“Why is a prince like me going through this…”
I’m wondering if I should release a side story for Halloween.
Are those kinds of things unnecessary?
