I’m Not a Hero Like You chapter 43

14. What is a festival?(3)

It’s early morning when the sun hasn’t risen yet.

Alessia left the room.

As I left the dark mansion where silence fell, I felt a faint sense of liberation.

A cool breeze rushes in with the scent of the forest.

I was awakened by the faint sound of presence coming from the other side.

training ground and training ground.

From early in the morning, there was a man who was absorbed in running through the morning fog with his upper body naked.

“You must have had a lot of travel poisoning, too, can’t you sleep?”

“Contrary to what you boasted, the saintess seems to have slept very well, right?”

Let Luke, who stopped near her, Alessia, tease her.

“They told me not to work while drunk. If you spend the first night like that, you will regret it later, because an older sister I know said that.”

and.

“No matter how crazy I am about finding a man, do you think I can even attack a crying child?”

“Are you crying? Are you talking about Ruel?”

“I think so.”

It’s not that I got that kind of impression simply because I made a gloomy, gloomy, or dark expression.

“Originally, the job of a saint is a battle, and rather than a combat support job, relief and relief jobs are the main job.”

“So?”

“… It seems like he hasn’t been able to sleep properly for a while, so I quietly slept and came out. If your mental state is unstable, you won’t be able to sleep properly.”

“If you do, aren’t you tired? Me and Ruel got on a horse and moved around, but didn’t you walk or run with my kids the whole time?”

“It was for training. In that respect, I am confident in my physical strength. You have to prepare in advance. When I really needed it, I sat down because I didn’t have the energy, and after regretting it a few times, I realized that I couldn’t help it.”

For a story to be told lightly, it felt like it was difficult to dig deep into.

… Well, as long as he wasn’t revealing his true feelings, there was no reason for Luke to ask.

“But it looks like you liked it quite a bit. Seeing how they stick together.”

“Well, I’m sorry to say this, but it feels like something sacred just being attached.”

“… what else is that?”

“It’s true that I have a preference for my face, and I think I’m weak and I need to protect and cherish something, but I have a firm mind and I have excellent skills, but my mindset isn’t bad either.”

just.

“Looking at the obedient feeling, I wonder if the atmosphere in the house wasn’t like that.”

“There is no exception for noble children, right? If you expect that much from your own children.”

“It would have been nice if I had been a kid who could handle that. and… You may have noticed, but Ruel often did it because he was looking at a strict place. Why do you think that is?”

“Isn’t it just because you’re blank or have a lot of thoughts?”

“no. It’s because of what it looks like. Also, can you guess what a child who sees what others cannot see will be treated without me having to explain it? So the guy must have been in pain all the time. While being engulfed in anxiety and doubt that he is abnormal.”

As if her taste was bitter, Alessia shook her head… .

“ah.”

“why?”

“… hangover.”

Grab your head.

“Didn’t you just drink like that?”

“Did you pay for it? In this case, when will you get the passage too, when will you get it?”

“That’s what the bar owner thinks. And, since it’s a holiday soon, why do they care about that? Just say I want to drink it.”

“Did you catch it?”

It seems to be going well, but in the end, it comes back with a question and answer that is not like poetry.

“Anyway, I got a feeling.”

“How do you feel?”

“I mean Ruel.”

I care a lot.

No, is it just that?

“It seems like I fell for you, something… If you leave it alone, it will be very dangerous, so it makes me anxious.”

“Isn’t that something like crush, pity or maternal love?”

“I’ve never had a child, so that’s bullshit. And when he grows up just a little bit more, Ruel will become a much nicer man than you, I guarantee you.”

“Still, it seems to be smaller than me or you, are you sure?”

“… The saintess has nothing to say. Before that, being big wasn’t something to brag about, was it?”

“Unfortunately, bragging is right. As a man.”

Luke also has a fairly large physique in a general category, but he said that at the time when his physique and that of the female Alessia were similar.

“Even so. Even when Ruel looked at me, he never looked at me with an ignorant look like you do?”

“What kind of eyes did we have?”

“Big. Very big. it’s a mistress there is no other man What is this? If I get beaten, will I go to a room? Shouldn’t you jump?”

“Then what about Ruel?”

There, Alessia paused for a while.

“… pretty?”

“Have you ever lost your mind? Or you got pods in your eyes… .”

“No, it’s real! If I just look at my face, I’m pretty handsome, right?”

“… … .”

It was hard to deny, and Luke suddenly became sad.

There is no such thing as a foul.

“And how much did you care about your body! So I tried my best not to make my arms thick! The legs… I couldn’t help but… Whew.”

Just thinking about it makes my heart ache.

In that case, you just have to bury it and bury it.

“Anyway! They treat me like a decent woman, so why don’t you fall for me and shoot me in the stomach!”

“… Isn’t it just that Ruel’s appearance is his preference, so he’s trying to justify himself in a good way?”

“That, too, is sad, but hard to deny.”

Unflattering small talk.

Still, through these conversations, the two manage to get to know each other.

And getting to know a member of the lord’s family in this way is soon.

… It is also in line with understanding the general atmosphere of the lord.

As a Luke, being able to make friends with the saintess is good in itself.

of course.

It’s not like Luke or Alessia intended to talk and meet while caring about that.

Luke gave a weak cheer.

“Where do you do well in a short period of time? If it turns out well, I will also bless you both.”

—-

exactly.

“… … .”

I woke up right before the nightmare.

Seeing the light outside the window, I was amazed.

‘I just closed and opened my eyes.’

Rueld opened his eyes just before he kicked in the door.

But unlike before, it’s because I feel like I’m sleeping soundly.

Comparatively, the sensitive nerves were somewhat relieved.

It’s quiet, but in the middle of the faint sound of birds chirping.

Kariel took a deep breath and calmed herself down.

For him, whose mana management and breathing methods were meaningless, it was difficult to quickly grasp and lead his body in such a way.

So, what you can do is to use consciousness and will.

Contemplate your inner self by enhancing your concentration, check your physical condition… .

It wasn’t an easy process, but once I figured out the tricks, it became possible to figure out my physical condition even if it wasn’t perfect.

“… … .”

At the time I was tired, this part was also a mess, but when I saw it improved as if I had washed it, I felt like I had a good night’s sleep.

As I left the room, a passing servant showed me where to wash up and also told me when breakfast would start.

After leaving the mansion, going down a little, there was a well.

There is a small fountain in front of the mansion, and a well here. It seems a little far away, but judging from the sound of the flowing water, it seems that the surroundings are rich in water resources.

I had learned at the academy that villages, especially large cities, are created in places with abundant water resources, but it didn’t really appeal to me.

‘It was a matter of course, but when I came here, I realized it all over again.’

I thought it was something the world didn’t know.

By the time I wet my hair after washing, the length of my hair started to bother me.

‘Should I tie it up?’

A bit short to tie.

It’s annoying to leave it alone.

… Do you knock it all off?

The robe that doubles as a cloak given by Elhermina was great for its convenience.

Even if you don’t have to take a bath, even if you manage to maintain comfort, it’s a great effect, but even when the wolf demon bit you last time, it didn’t get torn.

‘So is the sword.’

Even though the skin was split and even the muscles and bones were cut off.

It didn’t even bend.

The original two-handed sword was ambiguous to use unless it was repaired.

I have it, but I have to dispose of it anyway.

… It wasn’t that I was in love, but it didn’t matter.

Let’s go back to the mansion.

“Are you awake?”

It was Alessia, dressed lightly, but unlike yesterday, dressed quite neatly.

It was a priestly uniform with some gold threads drawn on it in light white.

… The feeling of discomfort was enormous.

Besides, the size didn’t fit perfectly, so the sense of incongruity was greater.

In particular, thanks to the blatant swelling of the chest area, it evokes a strange feeling.

And, if that’s not all, it looks like he’s wearing a shirt and pants separately even under the white priest’s uniform.

… A little bit funny.

Besides, isn’t that a priestess uniform or a goddess official uniform?

“I know it’s weird. But isn’t this the only thing that fits your body?”

Oh, I just stopped by the church.

Alessia grumbled.

Her red eyes seemed to be a mishmash of dissatisfaction and vacillation.

“It is said that clothes are wings, but after all, wings cannot replace the main body, right? I think Alessia is the coolest when she stays Alessia.”

“… … .”

suddenly quiet

“You speak so beautifully. If only the word ‘cool’ had been refined differently, I might have fallen in love with it all over again.”

You make a loud or scary noise.

It’s been awhile since I’ve had a brief chat with her.

According to the guidance of the servant that the meal time would start a little early, they were immediately moved to a place that doubles as a living room and dining room.

The place where the square rectangular table was placed was already half filled.

“indeed! You have the appearance of that famous guardian saint!”

That’s what a middle-aged man with short brown hair, a nose and a beard shouted as he jumped up from his seat.

Even though the outfit is not meant to welcome guests, the well-knotted clothes dyed in purple on a reddish brown background give a stable and luxurious impression.

Alessia responded with a forced smile.

“… Baron. I know you said it with good intentions, but even if I look like this, first of all, am I a woman?”

“haha! Male or female, what does it matter? I wonder if any other knight would compare it to Alessia-sama.”

“… I’m not an official paladin, so I think that’s too much praise.”

“With the body of a saintess, even the will and conviction of a knight! My insight is somewhat lacking, but I know this. You should be proud of the saintess!”

“No, so… .”

Why don’t you listen!

The face you want to ask.

“father. Calm down.”

“Really, what! It’s nice to meet one of my knights! Nice to meet you!”

He also has a big throat.

The one who had just stopped the middle-aged man had a strong appearance, but had a lot of flesh.

His beard is still small, but like the baron, his brown hair was neatly trimmed, so his appearance looked relatively decent.

Even the appearance was roughly similar to that of the baron.

Luke was the only one with a simple outfit.

“Look at my mind. I’ll introduce you there again. I am Roia Baronence, the current owner who is in charge of the housekeeping of the Baronense estate. And these are my children.”

The baron who looked after the saintess and Kariel alternately.

After a while, he noticed, and the overweight man started introducing himself in a slightly awkward manner.

“My name is Ludhi Baronense. I am doing the big and small things of Baronense on behalf of my father, albeit insufficiently.”

“Is it okay if I skip my introduction?”

When Luke shakes his hand, the Baron gets angry.

“This guy! No mess!”

“Oh, don’t do that again. It’s been a long time since I’ve been able to say it, but it’s a new thing.”

“Even if you two know it well, what about the guest from the Eden Levan Regiment? So, is it a decoration?”

OK.

“Oh, I don’t mind. We said goodbye right before we arrived.”

Often, when people compliment a person’s skin, they say it’s pure white or like white jade, as if it’s a ritual or custom.

This was twice as bad as that.

As if the color of the bones were like that.

Maybe even whiter than marble.

Even the color of his hair is pure white, which brings a great sense of heterogeneity.

“Since my supervisor has arrived, I guess I can finally do my job, right?”

His red eyes gleam with enthusiasm.

Between the slightly open mouths, pointed molars flashed.

Overall, his outfit, with long red embroidery embroidered between dark colors, had a sophisticated side that was hard to see at social gatherings.

Could it be because the red rose that occupied the breast pocket attracted attention?

The instinctive rejection of appearance was also relatively quickly dispelled.

“In that sense, Alesia, our great saint whom the Church of Irenice is proud of! I hope the 4th place with the nickname Suho will take good care of me.”

“Because it will happen even if you don’t tell me.”

Alessia snoring.

“If you do things right.”

“All of that for the soul of art to appease innocence.”

he said with a laugh.

“A member of the Edenrevan Regiment, the Blood Sharing Family Goodbye Association! As always, it will contribute to the stability and prosperity of mankind and the continent. Oh, I’m late with my self-introduction. You can call me Pilbar Asubna. More details here… .”

He got up from his seat and approached Kariel and Alessia.

I handed over something square.

“Please take a business card.”

Alessia received the tiny, black piece of paper as if she were used to it.

“… … .”

“You too.”

Kariel, who glanced at Alessia, also handed it to her.

“The proof is coming. Please meet the Edenleban Solidarity branch, building, and officials at any time and present it! You’ll get some kind help! Relationships are always precious!”

It’s clever, but not light or vulgar.

They act like clowns, but they never look frivolous.

Even though it wouldn’t be that easy to maintain that line.

He calmly fulfilled the role.

“Now then, finally… How was the introduction to the boy next to the saintess? Oh, you can omit it if you feel uncomfortable… It must be the baron who decides that, right?”

“… … .”

Kariel paused, noticed the baron, and responded lightly.

“My name is Ruel. It’s a pseudonym, but I’m working as a knight, so I’d appreciate it if you could be considerate of this.”

Left hand behind, right hand over shoulder.

Lower your entire back, but don’t bend your head.

The left leg is slightly bitten.

“Nice to meet you. Your status is not important here, so don’t be so burdened. The fact that my children and the saintess value you, doesn’t it mean that you proved your ability and heart to that extent? Even if that’s not the case, of course, there’s no reason to neglect you, so tie up your worries.”

“thank you. And, you can speak comfortably.”

“great. If you do, do it!”

The baron who put an end to the situation like that.

“ruler! When I’m hungry, I’m going to fill my stomach first. Filvar, you… .”

“I’ll make you drink what I prepared in advance, so don’t worry and enjoy.”

Then, at some point, a pale-skinned boy who looked like the man’s exclusive servant opened the stopper of a glass bottle.

Then, she poured bright red water into a glass placed on the table.

“Is that enough?”

“Excellent!”

A pale man gazing sweetly at the half-filled red water, as if he had no other delicacies.

“Your heart is racing. Come on, I can’t wait to witness the feat Saint Cariel accomplished! Come on, eat quickly! hurry! hurry!”

He looked really happy.

Edenrevan Regiment.

At the time of the invasion of the demon king, the first to fight with the demon king as a demon, and the renegades who stood on the side of the human union and the continent.

However, the favor and achievements they gave are comparable to those of Yongga.

Kariel involuntarily looked up into the air.

And Alessia, who was sitting next to her, also paid attention to that figure.

“The food is here! Come on, eat a lot! When the stomach is filled, the soul is also enriched!”

Bread, cheese and boiled eggs.

In addition, various types of meat come up whole.

It was a diet that would burden the stomach even for breakfast, but only Kariel herself seemed to accept it.

Eventually, watching Baron Roia’s invitation and the attendants tearing up the meat and distributing it to each plate, Kariel and Alessia naturally immersed themselves in the meal.
