That day, Hero Roy embarked on a journey toward Merc Town. He wants to see with his own eyes the situation of that place. His decision is solid and no one can change his mind, not even the emperor or his fellow heroes.
It wasn't a decision that spurts out of the moment. He already thought of it a long time ago, that he would embark on a journey to have a good adventure.
Also, he has yet to see some animal-eared people in this world. He could not accept that there was none in this world. Maybe in other countries, there were those kinds of people.
His other reason for leaving the castle was, he didn't want to stay in that palace along with everyone.
Although staying in the castle was a sure way to feed himself and gain riches, it wasn't the type of life he hoped once he transmigrated into another world.
For Roy, what was the use of being a hero if they just waited inside the castle for news and trained all day?
That's boring, isn't it?
