Return of the Former Hero

Chapter 29. Former hero・a troublesome talk is heard

Chapter 29. Former hero?a troublesome talk is heard

It became a somewhat troublesome thing.

The request from a beautiful girl, in that case, there is no objection to fulfilling it.

However, that beautiful girl is the 3rd princess of a country.

What kind of motive is there, or how are you trying to use me? I do not know.

Frankly for me, I do not understand such things that are behind the scene and the power struggle at all.

Therefore if I am reckless, what kind of result will it be?

Well, in fact I have not attached a judgment of whether it’s a good or bad thing.

Therefore, the previous me ran away from such situation.

As a result of running away, I don’t belong to anywhere, and when an unnecessary power is too strong, it was sent back to earth.

Thinking of that, good or bad, it may be easier for a person who belongs to some kind of power.

Although it’s sorry to to merely be used if you believe unconditionally.

And more than anything, this is also the chance to get closer to the princess.

Even if I was in the same palace for a month, I had only met princess-sama’s face for a few times.

Even now, I have yet to see the king.

This is a chance.

Placed into my hands, a chance for sure.

Although I am scared of the power struggle, and I feel that the criterion for picking a quarrel there might be ridiculous,

but my purpose in this world is to make a harem.

Then, I cannot miss such a chance to have this kind of relationship with the princess.

…….

Thinking again, it’s a relatively heartless principle.

And, anyway, let’s hear the story.

If it seems bad in any way, I’ll take Sharon and Laurier and escape to other countries.

“Well, a request?

What sort of …….?”

I try asking Rithina. However.

“Yes. But before that, can you tell me what are you investigating about the church?”

I was questioned in reverse.

What did I investigate of the church?

That is, I was worried about the basement over there.

I do not understand why I am bothered.

Simply, it’s that.

Though I do not mind saying that, it might not be good to draw out strange information.

I’d like to approach Rithina, but I do not trust her.

“……Now, I am, being asked of, by Rithina-sama right?”

To affirm the situation, I emphasis word by word while speaking.

I am not very good at bargaining.

“……It is so. I am sorry.

I also have to hurry with the circumstances.

First of all, I should talk.”

Rithina gives an apology, and after taking a breath,

begins talking about her request.

“What I wanted to request of Haruto-kun, is that I want you to investigate the relation between the church and hero Leon.”

The relation between the church and Leon?

I do not understand the meaning.

“To the church, Leon was recognized as the hero of the holy sword, isn’t the situation like this?”

I ask frankly.

“Yes. There is no mistaken in that.

However, there are some things I do not understand.

That is, hero Leon as the hero of the holy sword, his origin before the recognition by the church is unknown.

This, is similar to Haruto-kun too.”

Leon’s origin is unknown?

Until he is recognized as a hero……?

That is, surely Leon is not a summoned person, similar to me too?

I wonder how it is?

Just from hearing the talk now, it isn’t impossible.

This month, although I am in contact with Leon, there is no speech and behavior to suggest that he was born on earth.

No, it doesn’t necessarily mean it’s limited to being summoned from earth?

“And, another thing.”

Are there still others?

“Regarding the holy sword hero Leon holds.

What exactly is that holy sword?”

What is the holy sword?

That is, a sword an an ancient origin handed down from the church, isn’t it?

“Simply, isn’t it a holy sword the church had?”

“Yes.

We, the royal family of Millis. Even my father didn’t know the church possess something like a holy sword until hero Leon appeared.

I check through various books with myths and legends of Millis,

but there was nothing indicating that the church possessing a holy sword like that.”

Hmm.

I don’t know that well.

Maybe it was discovered somewhere, hidden or something like that, and well, isn’t that it?

“And lastly.”

Oi Oi, there’s still somemore?

“Hiding it even from the royal family, the holy sword said to be a treasure, and a hero who is the user,

I do not understand the reason they have been easily entrusted to the royal family.”

Hmm.

If Rithina’s words are true, it’s certainly strange that the church is not placing Leon under it’s own management.

If it’s interpreted favorably, they believe in the royal family and entrusted him to them?

“Uh, Rithina-sama.

That, the church believes and entrusts him to the royal family, isn’t that the situation?”

“That…….it’s probably not.”

What is it?

Are relations considerably bad?

“The relation of the royal family and the church are not bad.”

Oou.

My thinking was read.

Do I have such an easy to understand face?

“The relation with the church is rather good.

But, still, to give up the hero of the holy sword, that isn’t something to part with easily.”

Hmm. That’s the way it is?

For me, I do not understand it well.

“I understood the story.

However, why me for that?

I am too, an adventurer with unknown origin who falsify my birthplace?

Wouldn’t you be unable to trust me too?”

That’s right.

There is no reason for Rithina to trust me.

“…… Yes. Honestly speaking, I do not trust you fully.

However, I think it’s possible to trust you.”

Although you do not trust me, it’s possible?

Crap, I do not understand what she means.

“……Can you tell me the reason?”

“…….”

To my question, Rithina doesn’t answer and watches my eyes quietly.

Again.

What is it?

“Err……”

“……Excuse me. The reason right.

That is, because I am suffering from a weak curse.”

“Curse?”

“Yes. I was born with it, and could vaguely see the thoughts of those around me.”

Eeh?

See a thought?

Really?

Then, the thing of gazing at me from just now……

“I’m sorry.

Although I said I can see it, but it’s really vague, I do not know what you are thinking of.

Besides, unless there is nobody around, and if I concentrate on the other party with just 2 people, it doesn’t go well too.”

“I, Is that so?”

I do not know whether what Rithina is talking about is true.

But, that sight that seems to be able to see through me, I felt that what she was said was the truth.

Therefore, she had emptied the room like this too?

“That is all I have to say.

For you to even trust me a little, I had said everything.”

Is everything honestly said really? I do not know.

Although I do not know, when I see the straightforward sight of Rithina that was almost transparent, I thought that it might be true.

“Then, if it’s alright with you, what was Haruto-kun investigating of the church? Can you tell me?”

I am asked by Rithina.

It doesn’t mean that I trust her.

Although it doesn’t mean that, it’s probably fine to say it.

I am worried about something in the basement of the church.

I speak of the matter of me not understanding why I am bothered.

“Is that so.

The basement of the church…… And 3 levels in addition……”

Rithina is muttering something while pondering.

I wait for her thoughts to be settled.

“…… Excuse me.

I did it in the middle of our talk, didn’t I?

What is in that basement? I am concerned too.

That too, I was thinking of asking that as my request, how about it?”

Even if you say how about it.

What should I do?

“Oh, I’m sorry.

I have not talked about the rewards yet.”

Reward.

That’s right, I have not heard it.

It’s a direct request from the princess-sama.

Can a reward that suits the occasion be expected?

“For the reward, how about me?”

What……if so…..?
