"Welcome back, princess and sir Kael."
The servants gave bow to them as some of them gave curious stares at the boy beside the princess while the others were gloomy to see the boy. The boy gave off a dissastified look at the castle as he want to puke while seeing it.
★☆★☆
In the room where people stood, on a throne was a man with age that has passed 40. He look below to a boy while making a pained expression. There were nobles and knights station beside him and three people who wore different clothes that doesn't belong into this world.
(So they are the new heroes that the shitty king brought. They all belong to my world then.)
"So you ret-"
*Glare*
"..."
The man who sat in the throne wore a sad expression as he made the boy pissed. He was a king who lead the invasion to defeat the demon lord but he could not be even arrogant in front of the boy.
The boy who had slain the demon lord, save the world, and even protected his daughter from certain death. But he stared at the king, he bore an arrogant attitude as he cursed the king.
"I don't care what you say now fucker. I came here for one thing, money."
The guards became pissed as he spat out insults at the king. But they could not even move at the boy who glared at them. He was a boy who they can't even defeat. As he move his eyes around the throne, the boy stared at the princess who sat the side of the king. She was the princess that he saved at the time.
"Hey, once this is over, don't you fucking dare to come for me again."

After he spat out the words, a young man couldn't take it as he charged at the boy. The young man was one of the heroes who came from the other world.
He unsheath his sword at the boy and trust it towards him. The boy only stood there as the swords was commimg towards him. But something unbelieveable happened...
In the eyes of the young man. The boy in front disappeared and then his sight then became blury. He was being gripped with a single arm while the boy's other arm was crushing his skull. He then let go, as he gave the young man some time to breathe.
"If you charged recklessly, you only get yourself killed. If you want revenge, get stronger to kill me."
The boy gave a lecture to the young man. The young man was a hero who was summoned in the other world. He even had cheats that was blessed by the goddess in this world but in front of the boy, it was useless to him.
As the young man regret that he couldn't even make the boy flinched with his cheats. As the boy stared at the young man, he gave a smile at him.
"I came to train you. Use the cheats and my teachings to kill me. If you can't even gave a proper killing intent, how could you even defeat the demon king?"
The young man was shocked that he has to kill a living being. He had been raise in a peaceful world and have to soaked his hand with blood. The boy tapped his hands at the shoulder as the young man stared at the man.
"I will help you, beacause i'm a former hero. My name is Tomori Haru, nice to meet you big bro."
(The italic had change his language in that part.)

8 510Zeroth Knight re: Dawn
Isekai, fantasy, with the core themes of Identity and Fate. Story contains a, mostly, lesbian cast. Updated twice a day. Evangeline Sayagawa makes the ultimate choice at the cost of the ultimate sacrifice: She decides to leave her world that she fought so hard to return to, and return to Arsea in hopes of saving everyone. Little was she aware of just how bad things had gotten. The world she was returning to was cast into chaos and on the precipice of being destroyed. She awakens in this new kind of Arsea, after having witness the end of a dear friend. The world now belonged to the monstrosities of old, the Beta, and their corrupted human warriors, the Eld. With her fake identity, that which defined her in this world, being stripped from her, she now has to navigate a darkness in which not even the women she loves recognize her. This is book 2 of the Evangeline Sayagawa "Zeroth Knight" story, with book 1 being found here. The first "chapter" posted here is a hyper-condensed version of volume/book 1, in case anyone needs a generalized refresher of events, or for those who wish to start with this book instead as it is faster paced and more action-packed than the first one. Suffice to say, but most of the details from book 1 are lost by doing this; however, enough of the more-important information is present to allow one to understand the general idea of what is going on. This book features a mostly lesbian cast and deals more so with fate and crises of identity more than anything else. However, there is much more action in this one than any of my other stories thus far and brings about the end of Evangeline Sayagawa's story arch... sort of. I have another story up, a short story drama with light yuri and supernatural themes: "Escape The KNIGHT" Share the story if you think it's good. And please rate some stars and leave reviews guys. It will help encourage other people to take a chance with the story and get to know this wonderful journey with us. Also, a friend has made a Discord for the "Zeroth Universe" if anyone wants to join and hang out to talk about the stories, theories, or just general fun chats with us! https://discord.gg/f3Bc4TR Follow me on Twitter @Ozefen0 to stay up to date on my stories and what have you.
