《Hero for Hire》Chapter 3: How to spend the money?
Advertisement
"So much time has passed huh?"
Haru was sitting in a room that was prepared by the king. There were three people including the young man. The young man was Takumi Touya, a highschool student from the same world as haru. Two were girls, the same age as Touya. The girl with a ponytail hair was Minami Moka and the other girl who had twintails was Mitsuru Yumiko. They were both summoned when they where walking together back home.
Haru talked to Touya about what had happend in the last 3 years. At first, they where shocked that Haru was the same world as them but then, they had pity him when he was sent here at a young age.
"Why don't you defeat the demon king yourself since you can defeat Touya who even had cheat on him?"
"Why should i? I don't give a fuck about the kingdom but at least i earned money from that bastard."
"""!"""
They were shock that he doesn't even give a damn about the kingdom and only care about money. Haru was given half of the kingdom's money from the treasury for the sake of the heroes.
"Why won't you help them? The people need you. Your a Hero!"
Yumiko furiously questioned haru as she stood up. But then, her legs started shaking when a huge amount of killing intent that Haru emitted. Even Touya and Moka couldn't even breathe from the pressure.
"A hero? Hahahahaha!"
Haru laughed as he would be mistaken as a crazed maniac when he glared at Yumiko.
"Help them? Did you know how long i've been suffering for the past 4 years i've been here? They made me suffer and then throw me away after using me."
The three were shocked that Haru had such a past. Haru then suppressed the pressure so that he wouldn't suffocate them.

"Don't piss me again and you will live longer. Just because we had been in the same world, doesn't mean that i would be nice to you. I don't care if you die, only after i've finished my job that you will be free to die. And I don't want to remember that past anymore, it will only make me feel sick."
He slowly sat on the chair as he stared at the window. Reminising about his family and friends to be force to part with, he gripped his hand...

The forest outside the capital,
"""Try to kill you?!"""
The three were shocked that they have to kill him. Haru just stood there, crossing his arms as he stared at them.
"Yeah, use everything you guys have in order to kill me. I don't care that you kill me, because you can't even hit me. I kept training until you guys are dead meat."
He was arrogant when he was taunting them. However in the end, the result was that he was toying with them. Even with the three group together, they couldn't touch him. The three were in shock, what kind of monster is he?
The goddess had gave each of them a cheat. Touya had overwhelming strength that exceeded human strength. Moka can heal and even regrowth a lost body part and also boosting her allies, giving immense power. Yumiko can cast intermmediate magic instantly and can cast magic that needed 10 magicians by herself. Even with such cheat was overtaken by haru's pure power.
As the three were tired, haru looked at them coldly.
"No wonder those fuckers need to train you. Even with that bitch's gifts, you guys are weak."
"Grrr..."
Touya was furious that haru even insulted the goddess that sent them here. He knew that the goddess was sad that she even had to beg them to save her world. However, even when mustering his strength, haru would still toyed them.

"Don't get mad at me. At least your lucky that you have it nice. Since, you had a cheat like power and also your not alone."
"""..."""
They were silent. Haru was here for about 4 years and he was all alone. They were really lucky since they were together when they were summoned. How could they hate him? He was younger than them while having to face a harsh reality.
But they were curious about haru. Why did he hate the world and love money?
Haru only lay back at a tree while staring at them. Only one thing crosses his mind, how to spend his money?

Sherds
Linus falls into another world, arriving on an archipelago. This is a story about exploration, and archaeology is a major theme! Studying history and pre-history is a favorite of mine, so this is a project using my research to build a world. One of the magic systems has rpg inspired elements, but this isn't a litrpg at its core. I'm an art student and haven't written much, but I like telling stories. This is largely just for fun, my own spin on the RR other world formula. (Placeholder cover is from the Palazzo Massimo in Rome)
