The Captain stands up and one of the young men says doubt " What was that? "
The Captain makes a slight bow and says with a humble voice " I just swore my loyalty to you, sir "
" Okay " Said Hayato's clone with doubt then he continues " I have a few questions for you, but first we have to stay here for at least three more days, we have to move the villagers to a safeties location, besides, I want to confirm if the princess would send more knights to try to kill the villagers if she sends them you have to send them away if you don't want them to die " Says the clone with a cold smile
" Yes, my lord…. can I ask you a few things? " The Captain bows and makes a question, he takes out his helmet revealing a handsome man around 28 years old, he has black hair and dark green eyes
" Ok, tell me what you want to ask me? " Say the clone with a calm expression
" You aren't some kind of Demon hybrid or something like that, right? " Conrad asked with a bit of fear
" No, I'm not " The red eyes and marks on their foreheads disappear in both young men and one of them says " Well, more or less " Waving his hand
" Then what are you? if so, why did you help the villagers? Demons are ruthless and selfish " Asked Conrad with a lot of doubt
" I said it before, no? " Said the young man with a serious face " I hate people like your princess, the people that can kill the innocent without a slight hesitation "
" Ok sir, but what was that Bean that I eat before? I had never seen something like that " Asked Conrad with a face of doubt
" It's a medicine, it can cure any kind of injury, but that's all I going tell you, I don't trust you so much " Answered the clone
" Incredible! but I made a bow to the heavens so you don't have to worry, if I betray you I will receive the Tribulation Of Treason, no one can survive that " Conrad makes a small smile
Hayato's clones raised an eyebrow and both think the same ' Isn't that some kind of slavery sware? '
Then Conrad continues " And for the last question, you haven't told me your name, sir "
" Hayato(x2) " Both clones answered at the same time making Conrad surprised and say " So you three are brothers with the same name? "
" No, we are copies of the original, he is still with the princess " But one of the clones said something that shocks him
" What!? that's amazing! I never heard about a technique that could do that! " Conrad starts to scratch his chin to later make another question " And what's your last name? "
" You have to make that question to the original, he still doesn't like his last name for some bad memories with his family," said the other clone with a cold face
" I-I see, and what Kingdom summoned you, sir? " Conrad asks with a very serious face after all he like other people that Hayato had met thinks that he is a summoned Hero that's one of the reasons that made him swear loyalty to him
" I'm not a summoned Hero just like I'm, not a Demon don't' ask any further " One of the clones says calmly and leaves jumping to a roof, leaving behind Conrad and his other copy
" A-alright sir and what do you want to ask me? " Conrad speaks nervously
" let's wait here for three days, later one of us will go with you to see the original, go with the village chief and tell her that the princess sent you to change the location of the village, don't try anything funny "The clone jumps to a roof leaving behind Conrad with a confused expression " Ok sir " he whispered walking to the village chief house after that

Hayato's eyes tremble for a second after he saw the notification ' So it started, I hope the plan goes perfectly '
" Village Hero, you never told me your name " Asked the princess to Hayato making a happy smile
Hayato turns to see her making a small smile reacts in surprise and tells her his name " Sorry, I forgot it, my name is Hayato "
[ 'Bing! You receive 1000 System Points' ]
Hayato's smile grew after the second notification but the princess didn't seem to notice that ' That's the number two '
The princess's smile grew seeing Hayato smiling face then after a pause watching Hayato's face, she says with doubt " You know, your face is identical to the Heroes of legends but you are not a Hero, right? "
[ 'Bing! You receive 1000 System Points' ]
' And number three, next the moment of truth, if he doesn't accept the clones will bring back his body and with the Transformation Jutsu, I will copy him ' Hayato smiled as he shakes his head then he says " I'm not, people always said that when they know me, I find that kinda funny, haha " Hayato chuckles at the end making the princess laugh too " Hehe, you are not just powerful you are a funny guy didn't you? " The princess then says with a smiling face " You know I think that maybe your ancestors are Heroes, that will explain the power you have, tell me you know at what level you are? "
" What do you mean, princess? " Hayato asked with a face of doubt
The princess covers her mouth with her left hand and laughs " It seems not, fufufu " then she says " I am an Advanced Super Magic Swordsman Realm 9, I'm the number three in the Lyrel kingdom just below my father and grandfather, the only way to find out your strength is with the Level Stone, when we arrive at the kingdom we find out your level, but I'm sure that you will be one of the strongest once we will check in what level are you " She says that with pride
" Ok, princess " Hayato shows her a sweet smile it seems that he wants to practice his acting skills
" D-don't look at me like that, you are going to make me blush again " The princess's face starts to turn red again and she speaks in a small and shy voice
' I totally retreat doing that that, this acting of hers is making me tired '

After that Hayato smiles again ' So it worked hahaha, that way I can stay away from her, the Captain can spy on her and see what plan she has for me that way I can concentrate on increasing my powers, and the next test '
' Syt, how many points do I have ' thought Hayato
[ '17,400 System Points' ]
' Still, not enough, I have to kill more bandits or if there are, monsters '
Hayato turned to see left and right with curiosity but he can't see anything more than trees, bushes and some rocks on the way besides the only sound he heard besides the horses were birds so he turns to see the princess and says " Hey, princess, why there aren't any monsters nearby? "
" The Human Continent don't have too many monsters and most of them are a little weak but recently I heard that a Divine Beast was living near the forest of the Lyrel kingdom, but I think that that is just a rumor, after all, my father went in a search for it but he didn't found anything " The princess smile sweetly after she speaks
" I see " Hayato nodded with understanding then he think with disappointment ' I wanted to see some monsters but it seems that I have to wait a little longer for that '
After a couple of hours of riding the horses, they finally arrive at the Lyrel kingdom, Hayato wasn't very impressed by the looks of the Lyrel Kingdom after all he had seen many Isekai anime before. The Lyrel kingdom was inside a forest, it was surrounded by a wide wall that covered a huge part of the forest, the walls are very tall maybe 20 meters tall, and the entrance of the kingdom has a big metallic liftgate, it even has a wooden bridge tied to the wall with various metallic chains and at both sides of the entrance were two big red flags with white lions roaring in them
Hayato and the group approached the entrance and then various knights on foot come to greet them most of the knights seem quite young then all of them make a slight bow with their right hand on their chest saying " Welcome back your highness! " the princess smiles sweetly at them and says " Thanks to all your effort " The smile of the princess made the youngest knights turn red seeing her, then they smile with satisfaction bowing their heads to say " Thank you, princess "
After that Hayato and the others passed by them and thoughts with disdain ' Idiots, She is not that beautiful ' Then he makes a calm expression remembering something ' I knew a woman that was far more beautiful than her, but she was out of anyone's reach '
