The Former Hero Began To Be Re-Evaluated - The Former Hero Began To Be Re-Evaluated chapter 32

32 – The Last Hero (2)

‘I guess I should get some sleep.’

I don’t know what Aji would think, but I wanted to quickly finish Aji’s training and return to the village.

If you think about it, isn’t it true that you haven’t been able to go back for almost a month?

I told the village chief that I would return soon, but it felt like my return to the village was being delayed.

I guess I should go to sleep quickly, train my son quickly, and then go back.

If you want to do that, you’ll probably have to go to sleep quickly.

“Sleep in that room.”

“In that room?”

“Uh.”

I handed Aji one of the two keys I received from the innkeeper.

Then I went into the room and was about to rest, but Aji quietly grabbed my clothes.

Why is this happening?

When I turned around, I saw Aji holding the key and making an incomprehensible expression on his face.

“Why?”

“Aren’t we going to sleep together?”

No… What on earth is he talking about?

I didn’t know how to reply to Aji’s words, so I fell into silence for 3 seconds.

But, I was able to come to my senses quickly.

I keep forgetting, but Aji was not human.

As a race of beastmen, they were a race that differed from humans in everything from common sense to instincts.

Even though it looked like a human on the outside, it was closer to a beast on the inside.

Of course, humans, cultures, and ways of thinking are very different.

“Hmm. Humans don’t sleep together.”

“Why?”

“That’s because we are human.”

Of course, it wasn’t that I didn’t understand Aji.

Due to the nature of animals, sleeping together is advantageous for survival.

That way, you will be able to cope with crises and sleep more safely.

In that sense, I can’t help but think that what I’m doing now is unnecessary.

You won’t understand that colleagues sleep separately from each other.

I had no choice but to explain it to Aji.

But there was no need to explain anything in a very long way or anything like that.

There is no way a beast could understand human common sense anyway.

No, even if you understand it, you won’t be able to sympathize with it.

It would be better to just gloss over it here.

After saying that, I tried to go back into the room.

“Is there someone you slept with?”

“…”

Huh…

But Aji still asked as if he was curious.

They say that even humans sleep together.

Hmm… After hearing it, I guess that’s true.

“No… What I’m saying is, I wouldn’t sleep with someone I haven’t known for a while.”

I had no choice but to provide additional explanation.

They say they don’t sleep with people they don’t even know…

I hope this was a sufficient explanation, but I was just about to go back into the room.

“Is there someone you slept with?”

“…”

But again, Aji refuted my words.

I had no choice but to add additional explanation.

“Um… Aji. I mean humans don’t sleep with little guys like you who haven’t lived that long.”

Is this enough?

I think I explained this issue very well.

Yes… To be honest, as Aji said, there was no way humans wouldn’t sleep with people they met for the first time.

If you’re a grown adult, that might be enough.

But I don’t usually sleep with a little boy like Aji.

I felt my explanation was quite sufficient.

You can’t refute this, right?

“Is there someone you slept with?”

Huh…

Aji once again refuted my words.

There is such a person?

Aren’t you crazy?

“Ajia. That’s not a human.”

I stuck out my tongue.

How could anyone even think of sleeping with such a little boy?

I am confident that if someone catches my eye, I will cut off their head right away.

“I see.”

Is it because I look a bit cruel?

Aji finally showed an expression of understanding.

“Okay. Do you understand? Then sleep well and see you tomorrow.”

“Yes.”

The Q&A is over.

I left Aji behind and only then entered the room.

“Phew. I’m tired.”

And then I immediately lay down on the bed.

I guess I can finally get some rest.

I was just about to fall asleep.

Squeak…

“…?”

But, after a while, I had no choice but to wake up.

I’m just about to take a break, but who on earth is bothering me?

I got up from my seat with a slightly angry expression.

I don’t know who it is, but I searched. Really.

If the person who entered my room was a thief or a robber, I opened my eyes and prayed for their peace in advance.

However, I was surprised to learn that it was not a thief or a robber who entered my room.

“What? Was it Aji? What’s going on?”

The identity of the being who entered the room was Aji.

Why does he come into my room at night?

“hehehe…♡”

Also, the situation looks a bit strange…?

“No, what does that mean… Hero Jax?”

Until just now, the party members thought they were fortunate to have met a warrior named Jax.

They were feeling grateful to Jax for accepting them as warrior party members again.

But what is this situation now?

Jax Hero was talking nonsense right now.

Bring the party members to the inn and see if they have compatibility…

I was wondering if something like this could happen.

“No… I want to see your inner compatibility.”

“Heroes and party members are not like that.”

The party members had no choice but to be disgusted.

What do you think of the party members?

Of course, the heroes and party members are all grown ups, and they can do things like that depending on the time.

However, that means that you can do it individually, not because you are a hero and a party member.

Surely the reason you became a hero wasn’t to do things like that with your party members?

The eyes of the party members looking at Jax gradually lost their shine.

“Hmm… Is that so? hahahaha. I guess I misunderstood.”

Then, Jax quickly apologized.

I tried to get over this situation by smiling as if it was nothing.

They say it’s just a joke and don’t take it too seriously.

“Hmm…”

“Is that so?”

This is really a joke, right?

Of course, I couldn’t believe that right away.

I wonder if he really meant it as a joke, or if he just said it like that…

Honestly, I couldn’t tell the difference.

Because of this, the party members’ view of Jax was still not very positive.

But still, I tried to force myself to believe it.

Hey… They said it was a joke.

Common sense tells us that this cannot be true.

Still, Jax was the one who said he would become a hero.

Of course, he would not have said that he would become a hero with a light heart.

It’s probably just a joke.

The party members tried to reassure themselves.

‘Let’s not think too badly about it.’

No, I had to be relieved.

Actually, they weren’t in a position to be angry at Jax.

Normally, they would have been disgusted and disliked it, but the party members tried not to show it as much as possible.

This was because they themselves knew best that their current situation was not easy.

The party members had already been recruited to Jax’s party after going through three heroes.

With three failures, their status in the empire had already plummeted.

If this continues, there is a possibility that the promise will not be fulfilled even after the Demon King is defeated.

This is already a precarious situation, so failing for the fourth time is really out of the question.

Furthermore, even if he succeeded, it was absolutely unacceptable for him to have a bad relationship with the hero.

This time, Jax had to succeed in subduing the Demon King.

Rather, it was a position where he desperately needed to be seen well.

So let’s think positively.

I guess this is just their luck.

“I understand well. Then let’s go.”

Jax left the inn again. And he began to take the lead.

Luckily, the direction Jax was heading towards was the Demon World.

But you’re going straight to the demon world?

The party members also followed Jax.

‘Still, it’s better than Alex.’

From noble mtl dot com

At first impression, Jax’s appearance was quite unpleasant, but Carne, the elf of the warrior party, still felt fortunate.

Yes, a man like that would be hundreds or thousands of times better than a warrior trying to start a rebellion.

What if you have some strange thoughts?

It was when I was organizing my mind while thinking about that.

“aaah…!”

But, I don’t think that’s possible.

Carne, she suddenly had no choice but to scream.

“Huh…? Carne, what’s wrong?”

“Carne. What’s going on?”

Why did you scream? The party members asked Carne what was going on.

Instead of answering the party members’ questions, Carne answered with her considerably reddened face.

“Ji… What are you doing now?”

She seemed a bit angry and embarrassed, glaring at Jax with her tearful eyes.

This man just touched my butt…!

The reason she glared at Jax was because Jax gently touched her butt.

It was absolutely no illusion.

This man clearly touched his buttocks with his hands.

It was clearly touched without the party members seeing it.

I still tried to believe it, but I can’t believe how long it’s been since they did something like this…

I really had no choice but to consider this properly.

“Why are you doing this? Carne?”

However, Jax spoke as if he had no idea.

He looked like he had no idea why he was doing this to himself.

“Yes?”

Are you trying to make fun of this?

Are you crazy?

Carnet was dumbfounded by this situation.
