Shota's Isekai NTR Adventure - Chapter 1709: Where did they go?

Chapter 1709: Where did they go?

“It was all because of his brave sacrifice that we were able to make it back!”

“We have to send a rescue team to find him!”

“If we can’t find him alive, then we have to at least find his corpse to bring back with us!”

When I heard them saying all of this, there was an awkward look that appeared on my face.

As for who they were, it was the investigation team that had escaped because I had led the lava golems and fire spirits away.

Though it wasn’t just that reason alone that they had escaped.

It was also because I had made sure that the lava golems and the fire spirits didn’t bother them after I claimed Ifirit.

Hearing them say all of this now made it awkward for me to exit the dungeon.

After all…

“I’m alive after all!”

That really would have been an awkward situation for me to step into.

But I could also tell that they were getting more and more agitated with the way that they were acting. If I were to wait any longer, it was likely that they would have lost control and dived into the dungeon.

I could even see that there were sages that were being summoned to go along with them.

So with an awkward cough, I walked out in front of everyone.

There was only silence that followed after I came out.

Once I was in front of them, I could only say, “I’m back.”

“Your majesty!”

The royal guards were the first ones that reacted as they immediately came forward to surround me.

Once they were around me, they didn’t waste any time in completely surrounding me and looking at my body as if they were making sure that there wasn’t a single injury on me.

I couldn’t help shaking my head again seeing this, but I didn’t stop them since I knew that they were doing this out of their concern for me.

At the same time, the others seemed to finally react to what was happening and they came forward to see me as well.

Though they didn’t surround me like the royal guards did since they weren’t as close to me as them.

Once they were done checking up on me, the royal guards immediately knitted their brows as if they weren’t happy with something.

“How could you do something like that? Why would you sacrifice yourself like that?” They said as they scolded me, even though I was their king.

While they were doing this, there was someone that seemed to have something to say.

“Where is my Democratic Union group?”

The moment that he said this, everyone immediately turned to look at this person.

When this representative of the Democratic Union saw the way that everyone looked at him, he couldn’t help feeling that there was something strange about their gazes.

It almost seemed like they were looking at him with hostility.

But still he had to speak up for the Democratic Union group as he was the representative that they had sent.

“Where are my people from the Democratic Union? If you sacrificed them…”

“Ha, ha, ha.” Everyone started laughing the moment that they heard this which made the Democratic Union representative slowly stop speaking as he revealed a strange look.

He just couldn’t understand why everyone was laughing like this, but he could tell that this was a dry laugh.

It was clear that they were laughing at him instead of laughing with him.

“Sacrifice? What does your Democratic Union know about sacrifice?” Once someone said this, everyone started bashing the Democratic Union.

The representative from the Democratic Union had an ugly and confused look on his face as he didn’t know what was happening, but he didn’t let them continue bashing the Democratic Union.

“Do you know what your Democratic Union group did?” I suddenly spoke up before he could actually say anything.

The representative from the Democratic Union looked at me with a wary look before slowly shaking his head.

So I told them what happened.

“That’s not possible.” The representative from the Democratic Union was about to start accusing me of lying, but then everyone started bashing the Democratic Union again.

When everyone in the investigation team started accusing the Democratic Union, there was nothing their representative could say. After all, there were just too many people that were behind this accusation.

In the end, the only thing that the representative from the Democratic Union could do was look at the group from the small and medium sized kingdoms that followed the Democratic Union group.

It was just that they had been silent and looking away the entire time.

It was clear that they didn’t want to get involved in this matter, so there was nothing that he could do.

“I’ll be bringing this back to our Democratic Union and reviewing this matter. If there are any falsehoods…” He thought that using a warning would work, but…

“Go ahead, we’ll all be sending our own complaint to your Democratic Union for what happened here. You’ll see that we aren’t that easy to push around.”

A look of despair appeared on his face.

He never thought that at a time like this, the different countries would actually go this far.

After all, the different races should have gathered together to face the forces of Destruction…

But if their Democratic Union was going to be excluded from this…

Well, it was hard to say what the fate of the Democratic Union would be if something like this were to happen.

Even if the Democratic Union was powerful, they certainly weren’t strong enough to face the entire world.

If this really happened, then there was no doubt that he would be the one that would be turned into a scapegoat for this matter.

But there was nothing that he could do at this point since no one was willing to listen to him.

It seemed like everyone was done with his Democratic Union.

“Crap…” That was all that the representative from the Democratic Union could say.
