《Hero? I'm assassin, but that's the same right?》Chapter 2. Why do they call me hero when I just need to assassinate some dude?

“Heroes! We ask you to kill the treacherous Demon lord and Save the humanity from the-”
You won't want to hear it. Basically it's 'Blah-blah-blah. Demon lord. Blah-blah-blah. Bad Guy. Blah-blah-blah. You are good guys. Blah-blah-blah. Kill him.' and no info on reward!
“-will you help us?” after this words there should be some justice-maniac that would scream-
“It would be our honor to assist you-”
“It's 'Your' honor. I won't go on a suicide mission for nothing and without preparation.”
“Me too! I'm just otaku!” figures...
“Killing is bad.” some brain-dead loli.
“This is the will of a God! Humanity must preserve.” zealot...
“... Demons... they are scary...” some other... hey that's a dude!
“But we need to protect innocents!” the 'Honor' dude.
“... Yes... We will become heroes and we will get the pussies!” … pervert.
““Eew! Get away from me!”” all girls.
“Now that you mention it...” another stallion, and another enemy of the women.
“Just tell us the reward for completion, deadline and difficulty level. Then we will tell you if we'll do it or not. You can send us back, right?”
“No I can't send you back. Maybe Goddess can-”
“So you can't. Then what are the rewards, deadline and difficulty?”
“You are Heroes-”
“REWARD! DEADLINE! DIFFICULTY! I guess you can just send the army at the demon lord and be done with it.”
“If we send an army there will be a lot of causalities-”
“Like it bothers you.” Oh he's glaring at me.
“YOU! YOU ARE A HERO! WHY WOULD YOU DENY PLEAS FOR HELP?!”
“I don't deny... yet. I just asked for information on reward, deadline and difficulty. Answer and then I'll think about it.” a bit more and he will be fuming with anger.
“Rewards are the lands in this kingdom and ten thousand gold as a starting funds for the heroes' journey. Deadline... before the Demon Lord destroys our kingdom and difficulty... SSS rank if you would judge by the adventurer system.” The purple robed lady answered.
“That's better. Now about training. As you can guess we are not from your world. I was in the military so I know basics about fighting, but I am still a gunner, not a melee warrior. What about you people?”

““...””
“Guessed so. So you see we all need some serious training even before we attempt to travel. And judging by the looks of it, we also need information on this world. Also we don't know the value of money in here, so we can't say if those 10'000 gold coins are a large sum or not.” The king seems... relieved? I would have thought that he's an asshole. Nope I still think he is. Until he proves otherwise I will be... it's better to be wary of them all actually.
“You will get the best trainers and teachers we can find, also all expenses will be covered by the kingdom, while we provide you the accommodations inside the castle. The gold is for your private expenses, like buying slaves, exotic stuff and some misc expenses. 10'000 gold is actually a small fortune.”
“For a minor noble?”
“Yes.”
“Then I guess that for a great one it would be a one day spending.”
“...”
“So I guessed right...”
“First slave is free.”
“... I will get a dragon then.” oh the looks are impeccable!
“D-Dragon?! They are resistant to the magic! We can't enslave them!”
“But you know a way.”
“... Only theory.” interjected some old guy in a white robe with gold trimmings. He really looks like Gendalf. “If you steal a dragon's egg, then it's possible to tame it, but not enslave.” classics.
“OK. So no dragon... What about the slavery?”
“What do you mean?”
“Like will slaves be obedient to the death, or are they just some shits that will stab you in the back at the first opportunity?”
“All slaves have [Slave Collar] or a [Slave Contract] on their skin. They can't disobey orders and will sacrifice themselves if needed.” hm... so they are like robots?
“And what about their personality?”
“... The fighter slaves are usually not broken down so they can fight by themselves.”
“Oh and what races are available?”
“Beastkin, Elves, Humans, Dwarfs, in some rare cases Demons and Monsters.”

“And difference?”
“Humans are humans. No weak points, but no strong points too.” no weak points... ha-ha. “Elves have very acute senses, and very agile, but there are different types of them. Forest elves have very strong bond with nature and are magnificent archers. Light elves are powerful mages, while Dark elves are more famous for being the best assassins, due to their affinities in Darkness and Shadow. Snow Elves are melee fighters. There are also Blood elves and hybrids, but they are rare.” so druids/archers, mages, assassins, and warriors? “Dwarfs are good with the hammers and anvils, and there are only two types. Regular dwarfs, which are famous for their smithing and beer making, only surpassed by their love for alcohol. And Deep dwarfs, which are unlike their cousins don't usually contact the outsiders, so not much is known about them. There are also Gnomes, but they are weak and only good with some delicate tasks. Halflings are the size of a teen and there are two types of them Wild and Plain. Wild halflings are covered in fur and look more like miniature beastmen, while Plain look like humans. Beastkin, as you can guess, share some similarities between the man and a beast. There are Fox, Cat, Dog, Wolf, Tiger, Boar, Bear, Lion-”
“Yes I got it. What about demons?”
“They are rather rare as slaves, and we will talk about them and other races in class.”
“OK so if we agree, we will be given 10'000 gold immediately, get slave of our choosing, lessons and accommodations. What are the accommodations by the way?”
“Guest rooms.”
“There are bed, bathroom, table and chair, and there is comfortable temperature?”
“Yes.”
“Good. Then what about training? Will we get personal trainers or will we train under one?”
“At first we will train you all, but after we will assign the best trainers for the field you specialize in the best.”
“And the lands?”
“Two villages and a town with estate for each hero.”
“With people and servants?”
“Yes.”
“So to recall everything... Now we get 10'000 gold, slave and accommodations with daily training, and after the subjugation of demon lord we get Two villages with town and estate not far from them. Villages will be not far from each other or town?”
“They will be in the southern lands and in close proximity to one another.”
“We can choose what villages we want, but why southern lands?”
“There are better climate and-”
“We can choose lands wherever we wish then?”
“Yes, but why-”
“I prefer cold climates.” and if it's in north I can get villages in the mountain area. “Oh and what about the time of training?”
“A year, year for the adventuring business, so in two years I expect you to fight the demon lord.”
“Low chance on winning.” his gaze is... understanding?
“Heroes have the blessing which allows them to become more powerful in shorter time than normal people, so I think it's good enough.”
“It's deadline? Or if we won't be ready we would train more?”
“I'm Afraid that's the limit. In two years Demon lord will be reborn and we would have no chance, unless you will be ready.
“Hah... So... 10'000 gold now along with the slave of our choosing, accommodations with daily training, for a year, and a year more for getting stronger, crown will take care of expenses, after the subjugation of demon lord we get Two villages with town, including estate, not far from them. That's right?”
“Yes. So what do you say?”
“We get to keep the loot?”
“... Yes.”
“Then I'm in. You guys?”
“We will protect the people your majesty!”
“We-”
In short they all agreed, and the training will start tomorrow. I'm interested only in magic though.
Oh and there was a feast in the evening... pigs...
