Step- step-

Cale felt more awkward the closer he got to the cages with the residents from the areas around the Stan territory.

�This is bad.�

He was able to hear what the caged citizens were saying through the golden top�s whip.

�They are crying with joy that they are alive! Chaos, destruction, happiness!�
�They all seem to have gotten scared after seeing the black mages. They seem happy that they were able to be saved.�

Cale felt emotional after hearing that the hostages were crying in relief.
However, that only lasted for a moment.

�Chaos, destruction! Cale, they are saying that the hero defeated the evil bastard! They are saying that he got scared and ran away! They are saying that you truly are the Silver Shield Hero!�

�They are saying the Roan Kingdom�s future is bright with you and the crown prince here!�
�They are saying if his highness the crown prince is the Roan Kingdom�s sun, then you are the moon that brightens the night! Chaos, destruction, the appearance of the great hero! Kahahahaha!�

�Damn it.�

�Ah! There seems to be someone with good hearing here! He seems to have heard everything the White Star said! He is saying that you are someone who has received the will of a god. He�s telling stories about you to the other hostages and saying that heroes truly are different!�

�Motherf*cker.�

Cale headed toward the carriage with the citizens with a stiff expression.

The citizens inside the carriage converted cages were looking at him while suppressing their emotions.

��The esteemed hero is doing his best to look confident.�
�He�s coming to save us first even though his body is in so much pain!�

The citizens were getting even more emotional while looking at Cale and the crown prince.

Cale�s face was so pale that it wouldn�t be weird if he fell over at any moment.
The citizens could feel that Cale was trying to calm them down by looking confident even though he was tired.
Furthermore, the crown prince who was coming on the youngest sword master�s back had come to the battlefield and shed so much blood to save them.
Yet he was still gently smiling at them as if to tell them to relax.

The Knights following behind Cale and the crown prince had similar thoughts.

�Young master Cale truly puts other first before his own health.�
��Your highness. You care about the citizens so much.�

Cale was slowly experiencing this atmosphere through the Wind Elemental�s comments and the people�s gazes.

�Isn�t it obvious that I would release the hostages first since my body is fine?�

He was just going to the hostages first because it was the right thing to do and he didn�t want to have to get back up to see them later. JrNovels.com
