152. Return of first love (1)
After the raid of the hero party.
The church run by the demon king collapsed.
Those who joined the Order were sent to prison, and those who were forced to drink holy water were promised treatment by the Empire.
And the children who remained in that dungeon…
“I told the empire to keep me alive and raise them for now!”
“Nice work, Estiya. Is there any possibility of returning?”
“Not now! But later you never know! I might be stronger!”
Estiya shrugged confidently.
Luna liked that she was optimistic about her future.
“By the way, Estiya. Saten says you’re always dreaming. Do you know what that means?”
“Mo, I don’t know! Don’t even talk to that sullen kid! I hate her as much as that woman!”
“If she is as much as that woman, she must hate her very much, right?”
“Of course not! She made her brother go crazy because of her!”
Estiya puffed out her cheeks as if they were tightly pouting. Estiya, who was still lying on the bed, waved her hand and said to Luna.
“Luna, get out now! I’m going to sleep!”
“It’s 2 o’clock? If you go to bed right after eating, you become a pig?”
“A saintess is absolutely not a pig! Get out quick! I am sleepy!”
“Oh, okay. Stop screaming… “
Haa-
Luna sighed and left Estiya’s room.
The uncle saved her teacher and succeeded in avenging her, but Luna’s heart was disturbed.
“I should be happy that you defeated the demon king and the old man took revenge… Why am I not happy at all… “
Haa-
Go away. Luna let out her sigh.
The holy sword spoke to Luna like that.
-You did a good job defeating the demon king, hero. Thanks to you, the Church will return to its original state. Citizens won’t suffer anymore.
“I understand that. I’m not feeling well… I should be happy with the applause… I’m not happy at all… “
It should be good if the old man is happy.
Why am I not happy?
“I’m so disappointed in myself… !! Why are you doing this Luna! You are a warrior! We should cheer for the joy of the uncle! What is this!”
-Heroes exist for everyone. Personal feelings are useless, champion. Move your heart only for world peace.
“Hey, what are you saying? I will never listen to you! My head is complicated, but I want to do some training!”
Kung- Kung-
Luna took her big step and headed for the training ground.
When her head was complicated, simple training was the best.
However, there were passengers at the training ground she arrived at.
Luna didn’t like that person at all.
“What, why is the wizard here?”
“Junwoo listened to you well. Nice to meet you, isn’t this the first time we’ve greeted each other? “
“… I was in my room every day with my uncle. Why are you here today?”
“Are you here?”
“… Yo. This?”
Luna hated the woman in front of her.
She lost a lot of her life in the past to the power of the demon lord who took her form, and she was automatically wary of her uncle’s liking.
Aina smiled as if Luna was cute.
“Is our hero trying to talk to me secretly?”
“No… yo. This.”
“Really? So is it my delusion? Did I get it wrong because I was dumb and stupid?”
“Oh, no. That’s not-“
“I’m kidding, I just wanted to make fun of you.”
“This… “
What is this person?
You’re too selfish, aren’t you?
Why does Mister like this kind of woman?
No matter how much you think about it, I’m better as a warrior?
‘Your heart is broad enough that you don’t mind the age difference! Even if he gets kidnapped, he has a good personality! He’s a warrior, so he’s strong! Is it because I’m lacking something that you like this woman!?’
Let’s see Luna furrow her eyebrows as she gives a quote.
Aina looked at Luna curiously.
“You are interesting. Your thoughts show through your facial expressions.”
“Oh, isn’t it!? Lie!”
Aina looked towards her door and waved her hand.
“Uh, Junwoo. Are you done with your work already? Are you here soon?”
“Ah, Mister!? I-I didn’t feel any presence at all!?”
Hwaak-
With her heart pounding, Luna hurriedly turned behind her and checked her door.
However, no one was there.
Luna glared at Aina with her helpless expression.
“Gurande.”
“… “
“Jun-woo went to work. He said he had to take care of the Church’s affairs.”
“… So.”
“Wait, can you sit here for a while? I was curious about what happened while I was sealed.”
Tuk Tuk-
I urged her Luna, tapping her bench with her fingers.
It was scary because she looked like a bully, not a teacher.
‘Would you do something to me?!’
With that thought in mind, Luna sat next to Aina without question.
That moment.
Aina’s arm wrapped around her Luna’s shoulder.
“What, what are you doing!”
“Let’s just get to know each other. Do you smoke?”
“I don’t smoke! Let go of this! There is no point in threatening me!”
Luna tried to force Aina’s arm off.
However, she couldn’t because of Aina’s words that followed.
“Ah- my arm is broken. A hero breaks a citizen’s arm-“
“My, when will I!”
“Don’t do that, let’s talk. Junwoo would know if my arm was broken, but are you really going to come out like this?”
Like Junwoo.
Is this really going to happen?
As Aina whispered in her ear, Luna stopped her resistance and politely placed her hand on her lap.
“Uh, how did you know?”
“Because you are with Junwoo, you feel alive, right? The pink hair and the black hair are the same. I want to talk to them too, but I can’t see them.”
“Saten doesn’t eat and stays in her room! Hare is shocked that she only shows up during meals!”
Whoop-
I blew the smoke from her cigarette into the air.
“So, how is it? Which of Junu do you like?”
“Uh, where do you like it?”
“Yes, I’m not blaming you, I’m really curious. I wonder why you like that idiot.”
“Why… “
The reason why I like Mr.
Can I talk to this girl you like?
Luna was a bit worried, but Aina didn’t seem to let go, so she opened her mouth.
“It’s just, it’s good. Kind and responsible, always by my side when I’m having a hard time, and it’s cool… “
“Wow… “
Aina admired Luna’s words and replied.
“Your bean pods are properly attached? Aren’t you brainwashed by Junwoo?”
“Mmm, let go of your head! I wasn’t brainwashed!”
“No, is that the reason you like Junwoo? Sincerely?”
“… Yes.”
Luna replied, blushing like a girl in her puberty.
She knew for the first time that it was so embarrassing to tell others why she liked her.
“Tsk.”
Ai, after kicking her tongue at Luna, I threw her cigarette butt on the floor.
“If that bastard, Junwoo, looked like that to you… A lot must have happened while I was sealed. Annoying.”
“Oh, a lot happened! Me and my uncle lived together for 5 years! hahahaha!”
Luna is proud of her shrunken shoulders.
Aina gave Luna her cute gaze for a moment and stood up from her seat.
“This is enough for the conversation. I’m not feeling well, so I’ll leave.”
“Eh? Is this the end of the conversation? What are you not saying?!”
“You thought I was going to threaten you saying, ‘If you don’t want to die, give up Junwoo right now’?”
“Yes… I thought it would be like a bully.”
“… Because he’s a warrior, he’s unnecessarily honest. Well, that kind of personality would be better for Junwoo.”
Aina waved to Luna as she left her training ground.
“Anyway, do it yourself. Whatever you do, I won’t care at all. Do whatever you want with Junwoo.”
“Eh?”
Without a single warning.
You’re just leaving like this?
Luna muttered as she watched Aina leave.
“What the hell is that person thinking… “
Luna could not understand at all what Aina was thinking.
She was the first type of person she’d ever met in her life.
***
After the revenge.
I was able to meet Aina again.
“I want to go home soon.”
Child I think she would be home alone.
Even if she doesn’t feel well, she’s probably resting well in bed.
I knocked on the door of the Sylvester Knights’ office.
Smart-
-Come in.
I heard Irina’s voice answering in a firm tone.
I opened the door without hesitation and entered.
She was looking at a document with dark circles.
“Are you working?”
“Yes. Since you destroyed the Order, there are more than one or two things that need to be dealt with.”
Tak-
Irina threw the paper on her desk and met my eyes.
“But thank you. It could have caused great chaos to the Empire, but thanks to you, we were able to stop it. Conclusive evidence was also obtained. I would like to express my gratitude on behalf of the Empire and the Knights.”
“… There is no need for such greetings between us.”
“It is a thank you enough to surpass that.”
You are still rigid and value the spirit of chivalry.
I sat across from her Irina and asked her.
“He said he had something to say.”
“It’s a simple interrogation. It’s just procedural. Jun, what was the reason you attacked the church?”
“You know, it’s because of the demon king.”
“… I know because of the procedure, but I’m asking. Please answer straight.”
That bastard procedure.
I had no choice but to answer all of Irina’s questions.
The process of collecting evidence about the church and what the demon king was doing there.
And, as the next person to lead the church, the Empire said that it was thinking of ‘Estiya’, and asked for my consent.
“The symbolism of the saintess can rebuild a collapsed church. Think carefully and ask for an answer.”
“Kill all demon lords. Then I’ll ask Estiya.”
“… That’s a positive answer. It must be because Aina has returned.”
From noble mtl dot com
“Maybe.”
If it was the old me.
The time after defeating the demon lord probably didn’t exist.
However, since Aina was here now, she was able to promise Irina after that.
Because I have a reason to live again.
Irina stared her eyes at her paper for a moment, then answered by crumpling her paper.
“… I’m so glad that Congratulations on meeting Aina again, Jun. Is Aina’s health okay?”
“It’s not okay. It’s because it’s been sealed for a long time. I think it will take some time for her body to get back to normal.”
“Yes. Right. I get it.”
Irina nodded her head in agreement.
And then, she immediately sorted out her documents and told me.
“You can go now, Jun. As there was danger in the capital, the need for a warrior party is great, so be aware that support may come. The interrogation is over.”
“Okay, thank you. Irina. I’ll be on my way too.”
I’m worried about Aina at home.
She’ll have to go back soon.
With that in mind, I got up and headed for the door.
I can hear Irina’s firm voice behind me.
“… Be happy, Jun. Congratulations on your successful revenge. Be healthy.”
“Thank you, Irina.”
She would have met me as a kid if she hadn’t been busy either.
Sorry.
After answering Irina, I left her office.
I’m sure I heard good things, but my expression in the window was hardened.
‘… Health.’
Health is important.
But…
Can I do that on my own?
Even if the revenge is over, there are a lot of things to be done.
I had to make haste on the way home.
