Return of the Former Hero

Chapter 33. Former hero?it has become troublesome to think

It has been 2 months since I came to the Imperial Capital.

Today is the regular meeting with princess Rithina to report the investigation of the church.

And so, Sharon and Laurier are not around.

Mina is waiting beside the door, but there is nobody else besides the 3 of us.

However, as the room is not cleared of people as before, if I use search, I can tell that there are unseen guards waiting.

I report the extent that I have investigated so far.

However, with the only exception being, the question as to whether Leon is a summoned hero.

As I myself do not want to poke at the matter of those circumstance too.

When it comes to that, well, it’s similar to not having a significant result.

I don’t think it’s very useful.

However, I am doing the things I can.

Rithina too, must do the things she can too.

The basement of the church.

It should be Rithina’s job to make preparations for the sake of investigating there.

However, Rithina gave a condition for that.

And that is, the fort attack approaching in 1 month.

I have to participate in the fort attack, and accomplish the feat of recapturing the fort.

In that situation, together with the hero, a reward and ceremony will be held in the church.

Because it is carried out in the church, let’s examine it at that time, it was such a thing.

“But I have not decided on whether I am participating in the fort attack.”

“However, to slip into the depths of the church, the fort attack this time is an ideal opportunity.

Instead, it’s lucky that there is that kind of chance one month later.”

What is it?

For that, in the end, aren’t I doing my best?

But certainly, usually for the headquarter of the church, it wasn’t possible for people other than authorized personnel to enter.

Even if there were some kind of ceremony, it is not done at the church, but seem to go to the castle.

The chapel intended for the citizens is a separate, independent building.

However, there is the fort attack this time.

Therefore, if the hero of the holy sword recognized by the church plays an active role and realizes the commendable deed of recapturing of the fort, it seems that the church side will hold a ceremony to celebrate.

Therefore, I who participated in the fort attack too, will seem to be able to sneak into that celebration but…….

It seem to be quite a wise thing to make use of it.

“Of course, the main force for attacking the fort is hero Leon.

Infiltrating the fort, the plan is to slay the leader of the demons.

For Haruto-kun, I would like you to conduct a feint from the front of the fort.”

Though I have not said that I would be participating.

Can you not advance the talk selfishly?

When I was having a troubled face, Rithina stands up and moves next to me abruptly.

And, she clasp my hand while imploring.

“Please. Haruto-kun.”

Damn!

Moreover, while looking up at me!

My nature has been completely understood.

The source of information is Mina huh.

Youuu…..

It isn’t possible to decline it huh.

I’m an idiot.

Even I understand it myself.

“Haaaa…… I understand. I got it.

I will participate too.”

“Thank you! Haruto-kun!”

When I consented, Rithina’s face brighten and gives me a hug too.

Her chest!

A chest size I have not experienced yet, it’s great!

A perfect beanbag.

No, but this is a honey trap. (TN: are you a bee?….)

I do not understand whether her speaking style is already a honey trap.

At any rate, this is a conciliatory measure for me.

In that case, I will also drink it’s sweet juice with all my strength to the end.

“Kyaaa”

I hug Rithina tightly in return and touches her butt.

Somehow I, after approaching a girl, have a mood similar to ‘let’s touch the butt for now’.

Although I do not particularly have a butt fetishism.

However, I wonder if it’s alright to touch the butt of the princess in the castle?

If a guard becomes enraged suddenly and accuse me of being disrespectful, what should I do?

N, No, this is authorized by the princess.

It’s all right….. should be.

“Haruto-kun. ……Would you like to receive your reward?”

I am asked with an embarrassed face.

Yes.

It is not a yes.

“Ah, although that’s that,

can I want Mina as my reward?”

“Huh?”

Rithina exclaimed to my proposal.

As for this suggestion, I had talk through it with Mina.

Attacking the fort and investigating the church, although I do not know how long it will take, I do not intend to stay here for a long time.

At that time, I must have permission to take Mina along just in case.

Mina’s parents passed away about 4 years ago, and after that, it seems that she was bought as a half slave to work in the palace as a maid.

I hear that her mother originally served as a maid in the royal palace, and it seems that she was bought due to that connection after her parents passed away.

Normally, it wasn’t strange to become a slave without knowing who bought you, but Mina might have been lucky to be able to slip into the prominent royal palace.

When I leave this place, Mina was glad when she heard me asking her to come together.

Fuu.

This too, is a technique to build up my manly charms.

Anyway, although there is a connection, I cannot arbitrarily decide for Mina to leave this place since she has been bought with money. It will become desertion.

Therefore, I have no choice but to make her my property in both name and reality.

My property.

It sounds terribly immoral.

But at this late hour, I am not against the structure of slavery.

It’s pitiful, I think, but it’s such a world here.

There are lots of things that can’t be helped.

Rithina stiffens.

I digressed thanks to that long thought.

“Rithina-sama? Umm……?”

“Ah, yes. Is it……Mina?

Let me see……..uh”

Oh?

It’s rare to see Rithina going ‘I, I…”

By the way, I am embracing Rithina in the meantime too, and holding her butt.

In such a situation, I am asking her to give me another woman.

Even if I say so myself, what on earth is this situation?

“Yes. Even if it’s not Rithina-sama particularly, I will promise to cooperate in the future.

Do you feel relived?”

That’s it.

In the end, you want me as a pawn right?

To the extent that I am presented to a person in the royal family.

Such a proposal will not be an arbitrary decision from Rithina.

However, it’s a mystery why I have such high evaluation.

If that’s the case. if I make a firm promise of agreement in the future, I think it will not be necessary for Rithina to press me.

Therefore, it may be the last time I am holding Rithina’s body.

“……”

Rithina is thinking about something.

Related to just presenting a ordinary maid, I wonder what you are worrying about?

Has she settled her thoughts? Rithina opens her mouth.

“I cannot do that.”

N, No good?

Would that be a problem?

“If you accept me, Mina will also come along.”

Eeeeh!?

W, What is this situation?

It’s incomprehensible.

This fellow, why is she trying to get me to accept her so much?

“Erm…. Rithina-sama.

Just a little, I do not understand it well,

but even though I already said I am fine with another thing, why are you trying to get me to accept it so much?”

As it has already become troublesome to think, I ask her already.

I do not know whether she will say the truth, but I already do not understand anything

“……”

Silence.

After a while, Rithina takes a breath.

“Haruto-kun. I am being married off soon.”

Ha?

Marriage?

…..Ah, Aahh……so it’s such a thing.

I understood it somehow.

“I will be 15 years old very soon.

Then, having low succession right as the third princess, I will be made to marry with some noble.

Even so, I had thought that it’s fine.

Because even if my succession right is low, I am a princess.”

Is is because she has decided to talk? She talks properly.

However, her glance are somewhat distant.

“But, at the introduction party of the hero, I understood.

Although the formal decision has not been made, my marriage partner will probably be that ugly pig-frog!” (TN: )

Wait.

Ms.Rithina, strangely at the end, used a foul language that was of an unprecedented degree.

In my arms, her hands holding my clothes are clenched tightly.

Her beautiful face is distorted with hatred.

Scary.

“That is impossible. No matter how you look at it, it’s impossible.”

Is that so?

“However, there is no way I can break it off by myself.”

An influential person is dreadful.

“S, Somehow I can guess your circumstances.

B, but, even so, even if I accept it, it wouldn’t be permitted?

I am sorry, but I do not have the intention to oppose a country, you know?”

“I understand that.

Therefore, I left the matter of investigating hero Leon and the church to father-sama.”

?

What are you talking about suddenly?

Looking at my with a puzzled expression, Rithina continues.

“The relevant investigation was entrusted.

The rewards related to that too, I have decided, should be something good.”

EEEeeeeeeeeh……!?

That wouldn’t go through?

It isn’t possible to settle it at all?

“N, No.., that is a little absurd……..

Besides, if that’s the reason and you can do what you like as a reward, if you make it without a marriage……”

“Breaking it off cannot be proposed from me!”

Ah, she had said so.

I’m sorry.

“Therefore, even stronger than the hero, if Haruto-kun accepts it, I think father-sama will also consent.”

Is she desperate? Rithina’s tone was somewhat different from usual.

From father-sama, in other words, the king’s point of view, it will be considered a good thing to be able to control a man who seems stronger than the hero, by presenting a princess of limited worth with low succession right.

The fort attack too, might also be intended to accumulate appeal for that purpose too.

If I look from Rithina’s view, pig-gorilla……frog was it? I can cancel the plan for marriage without raising the cancellation myself.

I, I can get the backing of the king and obtain the hand of Princess-sama?

Huh?

Isn’t it not bad?

I feel like it’s a good thing somehow.

For me who was still confused whether it’s good or bad, while still hugging Rithina tightly, was pleaded to with an upwards look.

“I, In addition. In these 2 months, Haruto-kun’s matters…….I, I do not know if it’s love or such things…….th, that…it’s good, that what I truly thought.”

!?

In that line of sight, the sound of something shooting out could be heard.

If I think more deeply about it, although I feel that there is a disadvantage too, but it has already become too troublesome to think.

Isn’t it the same as that time with Mina.

That’s so.

I had thought about it when I made a move on Mina.

In for a penny, in for a pound.

“……I see.

Then, for my rewards, I will accept Rithina and Mina.”

“Haruto-kun!”

Rithina’s face suddenly brightens up.

To be frank, I do not know whether the story now is true,

and though there may also be parts that I wondered if it wasn’t just an act,

seeing this bright smile now, it became inconsequential.

Therefore, I decided to accept just a little more prepayment.

I held my hands to Rithina’s cheeks, and lightly kissed her.
