Short Chapter Part 2 is here !!
I"m truly sorry for the delay, a.s.signments and tests is killing me this entire week.
Please enjoy the chapter~
「Oi… Are you okay ?」
Was it because she was soaked in hot water previously, from Holly"s wrist, swells reddish color as if it was swollen, and steam is blowing out from the inflaming skin.
She stood in the center of the room as if the stare at the air flow, she shrugged her shoulders pretending to be unconcerned when she put her burned hand to her pants pocket.
「It is not important. I have confidence breaking the encirclement, but their number was a lot」
「Sorry」
「It is a strange feeling being taken into consideration by you. I will cooperate in escaping but… If it comes to battle, I will not cooperate with you」
Holly who sank down into the sofa on the wall-side blinks repeatedly while giving a sense of fatigue.
When Shouji picked up the pitcher on the table, he made a drink with lemon and handed it over.
After that, he listened carefully at the wall. He accepted the demand on the surface, but he did not know when it will be reneged
Just to be safe, he listen to the approaching intruder and someone"s footsteps.
「I owe you a debt」
「It is fine if you returned it eventually」
「When this is done, let"s hear what you want. I will a.s.sa.s.sinate your political enemy」
「No, thank you… If you will grant anything, then I want you to do something else」
「Anything is impossible, but I will repay my debt」
Holly put her finger on her lips with pleasured expression like a queen who got an unexpected harvest.
She hesitate for sometime, and the idea that came up was absurd.
「Ah that"s right, my father ordered me to attend the royal capital 10.000th Fall Festival. Please accompany me」
「Escort ? Please do not expect too much of my etiquette as a servant」
「The aristocracy party must be attended as a pair of male and female. I was in trouble because I had no partner to invite」
「That is a given, I know it as common sense. But, inviting n.o.ble young daughters requires permission from their mothers. I cannot pa.s.s the test」
「My mother had pa.s.sed away, and I am the youngest daughter. My father understand me well as being a woman who married ink」
「There are a lot of people in the capital who knows my face. There are not many searches there, but the successful war buddy will surely think I came for revenge」
「Revenge, huh… Why don"t you do it if you have a grudge against someone ?」
That was an unexpected question
When Shouji received honor as a yuusha, he had a future to just walk on the road to success.
The n.o.ble who robbed his future had already been buried under the tomb and a grudge remained for those who push himself.
If nothing is gone, he ought to kill in reversal to make him feel better.
Why he did not do it ? He understand the reason very much.
Even though he understand it, he is too busy over his head he did not want to say it out. Was it about the friendship he had lost―― He did not want to say it even if he died.
Seeing he is not responding, Holly smile secretly while poking fun at him.
「Everyone likes surprise. I am seeking surprises and excitement with an elegant manner. This is a secret, but to tell the truth I am tired of putting hunting gun bullets at people"s feet」
「…Very well. I will buy a vertical velvet, black curtain boots and a stepped swollen knee top」
「Also please wear roll-cut wigs, I am begging you, Mister Obsolete」
Holly imagined that figured and was delighted, she then lower her voice and laughed. She knock her knees and hold her mouth with difficulties.
Shouji sighed.
Even if it is on a conversation, it is only a delusion.
They like to have excitement in moderation, others who do not have a standing position also know to see it as a disguised clown.
Step back a few times, the bitter memories of the glittering gorgeous places were revived no matter how many times he pushed it back.
In order to attend the upper cla.s.s party, need not only money but also tutelage.
Holly"s invitation is a sweet food resembling a swindler"s mouth, it was ridiculous and interesting, but he understood that he did not feel like realizing it.
He do not live a pleasant life as he expected when he embraced a woman overnight.
Even though the feeling is pa.s.sionate right now, people"s feeling will change.
There is no way she want to be involved with a treacherous man forever.
「Hey Quik, your friends are being carried to the carriage」
「Ah… I see it」
The three people who were in a frenzy have been stowed on carriage like luggage by the soldiers while both their arms and feet are being tied.
Everyone is breathing dusty insect breath, even if their vulnerability is dead, there is no power in their body no doubt about it.
Anger came up from his throat. Normally n.o.body will ever see it. He do not even know fear. He is used to loneliness, he do not even think he want company.
However, Shouji liked the rough-kindness of his friends.
That is the only thing that is worth every penny.
「What kind of friends are they ?」
「Everyone likes potions」
「Thank you for the easy to understand explanation」
Holly showed disgust towards addicts, she head out from Shouji"s shoulder and looks at the situation.
Normally, the potions addicts are falling into depravity in general. And alcohol addiction is a hefty situation.
Halfway, Holly noticed that her b.r.e.a.s.t.s spilled from the teared dress opening was touching his shoulder then retreated in panic.
She conceal her b.r.e.a.s.t.s using her hands, while being driven with shame.
「You are becoming more like an unsophisticated girl」
「D-Don"t make fun of me…」
Being teased, she turn her face away because she felt embarra.s.sed, but she asked him as if she remembered suddenly.
「B-by the way Quik, what kind of woman do you like ? supposedly you are going to get married」
「Let"s see… In our world, we seek three conditions for a woman who will be a wife since ancient times, Although I have never seen a girl who has all three」
「Hou, what kind of girl was it ?」
Because it was a talk that attracted curiosity, Shouji put his fingers one by one in the same way as when he show off a short story in a pub.
He maintains a serious face, because it should not be known as a joke.
「One is a beauty, the second is must have a good style… the last one is the most difficult」
「… Is she should be rich perhaps ?」
When Holly asked it doubtfully, Shouji put a hand on his chin and pondered, but he denied it.
「No, it is metal allergy」
「What is that ? Does it means she cannot even hold a frying pan ? What is the reason ?」
「It means I do not have to buy rings and necklaces」
