Defiled Hero
The Sacred Hero
*This is read like a children"s story.
The Sacred Hero
In this world was once a Demon King.
The Demon King led the demons and hurt the people.
He had done bad things, and to defeat the Demon King, the master swordsman Zenesys had brought along his companions to confront him, and the evil Demon King was defeated.
Although the Demon King was defeated, the demons appeared one by one, and continued to attack the people.
To stop the demons, they had to purify the core of the Demon King.
To do it, they needed holy power.
In the resting place of the Holy Sword, the fairy Astrea’s power was needed.
As the carrier of the Holy Sword, Astrea summoned the Hero-sama.
「Who are you old people?」 (Hero)
They met when the Hero-sama was still a young child.
As the light disappeared, it was then that the young child would be chosen to be the bearer of the Holy Sword.
From his figure everyone remembered him as a young girl, but he was actually a young boy.
In reality, he had worn the clothes of a young girl, but that was just his hobby.
Although the Hero-sama had a hobby for wearing girl’s clothing, he was very kind, honest, and overflowing with vigor.
When everyone was in trouble, the Hero-sama did his best to help.
The Hero-sama became the master swordsman Zenesys’ disciple, trained, and became strong.
「Since there isn’t anyone else stronger than me, I’m going to go fight the Demon King.」
Then swordmaster Zenesys and the Hero-sama left on their journey.
Going around the country, they defeated various demons and monsters, and before they knew it, they had befriended a bow-wielding Dark Elf.
They surely fell in love, right?
Compared to the Elven girl, the Hero-sama was more well known for being cute.
In other words, long story short, yep, it was like that, two girls.
Various things happened on the Hero-sama’s adventure, and after three years of fighting they found the Demon King’s core and purified it with holy power.
With their journey over, the Hero-sama and his companions returned to the capitol.
So that the Demon King would never revive again, they sealed its core.
However, since they needed a strong power to seal it, the Hero-sama sacrificed himself.
And so, the Demon King was sealed.
Although the Hero-sama pa.s.sed on, the world had become peaceful.
With a light noise, I closed the picture book.
......They decided to wrap things up nicely from the beginning.
Somewhere in the middle, the story began to turn weird, but since it was selling well, it should be fine.
Hmm, is this alright? Since some things weren’t mentioned for the sake of the children, should I let it pa.s.s?
「Tear, is the book interesting?」 (Izayoi)
「Hero-sama......」 (Tear)
「What did you think of the Hero?」 (Izayoi)
「Hero-sama, so cool......」 (Tear)
「That’s a lie right? After reading this how could you think that the Hero is cool? The Hero that wore girl’s clothing? He’s a pervert isn’t he!?」 (Izayoi)
As I thought, saying that about myself made me seem like a pervert.
Although I was made to wear girl’s clothing by my parents, at that time I didn’t really mind living like that.
Well, when I was summoned, I was wearing a middle school uniform for girls.
「Even though cute, strong. Super cool......」 (Tear)
「......I don’t understand the way you think.」 (Izayoi)
Tear’s ears had perked up and were energetically moving around. Her tail was also furiously wagging and hitting my abdomen with a m.u.f.fled noise.
「Ichayoi.」 (Tear)
「What do you want this time?」 (Izayoi)
「......If keep training, will I be, like the Hero-sama?」 (Tear)
「You want to be like the Hero?」 (Izayoi)
「Yes.」 (Tear)
「*Kukeke!*」 (Rigolo)
「Rigolo also want to be like hero, says.」 (Tear)
I don’t really get it, but I’m getting the feeling they want to be strong but cute girls.
Good, they’re eager for some special training.
I was the Hero of the past. A story of bygone days. However, these guys are aiming for that, so I’ll cooperate with them.
「We’ll be practicing tomorrow. If you understand, then hurry up and prepare by going to sleep.」 (Izayoi)
Saying that, I put down Tear from my lap.
「......Ichayoi.」 (Tear)
「What?」 (Izayoi)
Throwing myself on the bed, Tear, who was standing while holding the book to her chest called my name. She didn’t reply to my question.
Her pointed animal ears gradually lowered until it hung down. She seemed to have a bit of a lonesome expression.
「......Do you... want to sleep together?」 (Izayoi)
「......Yes.」 (Tear)
「*Kukeke~!*」 (Rigolo)
「You can’t. Sleep on the floor.」 (Izayoi)
「*Kuke......*」 (Rigolo)
While tightly holding the book, Tear leaned in close to me. Are you really that happy with that picture book?
Tear had already closed her eyes, and was peacefully sleeping. Rigolo was also sleeping nearby with his head on the bed, making *kukekuke* noises.
I gently brushed the hair of Tear, who was sleeping in front of me. Although her animal ears twitched, there wasn’t a feeling of resistance.
And like that, the first day had ended. But it was only the beginning. I don’t know what’s going to happen after this, but I’ll be taking it slow.
「Sleep well, rest well.」 I said, as I gently rubbed her head.
