In the land of Melromarc, the four cardinal heroes were summoned, each wielding a single weapon spear, bow, sword, and shield.
But what if the kingdom accidentally summoned a vassal hero unlike anything the world has seen, a hero with the power to...
After the party felt the capital, they made their way to Shieldfreeden.
As the sun was about to set the party, we decided to set up camp on the side of the road.
When they were about to eat dinner, Melty, along with some knights, showed up.
Melty: Found you!
Filo: it's Mel!
Filo stood up in glee, waving at her friend.
Melty approached the party, who had to stop eating.
Melty: sir shield hero, sir vassal hero, I have a request. Please return to the capital and speak with King Aultcray again
Naofumi: No, not a chance
Ryuji: Sorry, not gonna happen
Melty flinched but regained her composure.
Melty: I want you both to apologize for your conduct and reconcile
Naofumi: Forget it!
Melty flinched but kept her composure, holding back her frustration and tears.
Melty: I need your help. We can't stop the waves without you. Besides, neither of you will be nowhere without the king's financial support
Naofumi: What financial support?
Ryuji: Yeah, your old man is constantly finding ways to either minimize Naofumi's pay or not pay him at all
Naofumi: The only reason why Ryuji gets any of that is because that trash king thinks he's working alone
Melty lowered her head to hide her frustration.
Melty: Why are both of you and my father have to act this way!!? The king and the heroes can't fight amongst themselves!! Don't you agree with me Filo, isn't this silly!!?
Filo had no idea what's going on and nervously chuckled.
Melty: What about you, Raphtalia!!?
Raphtalia nervously looked away.
Raphtalia: w-well I am master Naofumi's sword
Melty: See. They agree!
Naofumi: Actually, they didn't
Melty: Look, just apologize to Father just this once!! Otherwise, Mother is going to yell at him when she comes back!!
While Naofumi and Melty were arguing, Ryuji noticed one of the knights brought out a crystal ball.
Suddenly, another knight drew their sword and charged at Melty.
Ryuji quickly pulled Melty behind him.
He then avoided the sword and punched the knight in the face.
