What the Hero Wanted Was Me - Chapter 12



Episode 12

Chapter 12.

On the day of the mission to escort the princess.

I noticed one change in the hero’s party.

“Why are you looking at me? Do you have something to say?”

“No..”

I could feel the familiar scent that I had smelled from Sarah somewhere. The scent of white roses. Why did that come from Sarah?

Lenny had no idea what had happened while she was sleeping.

It happened last night while Lenny was sleeping.

“Sera, that’s my place. Get out of the way.”

Eren suppressed his anger as much as possible while talking to Sarah, who was in Renie’s arms.

It was dangerous if I made a loud noise and woke Lenny, so she suppressed the sound as much as possible.

“Isn’t it amazing? That you don’t wake up even when you’re next to me like this.”

Sarah had seen an incense that had this effect in one of her books.

Obviously, white roses from the north have a sweet scent when burned and cause the user to fall into a deep sleep.

‘I just came to the butler to talk…’

Sera, who had never thought that he could use him in a deep sleep like this, gained a knowledge of application methods.

Realizing her love, Sera, conscious of her shame, managed to overcome her feelings and went to see Lenny…

But what do you mean? Lenny was sleeping and showed no signs of waking. It was rather nice to know that Sarah was not at all ashamed of talking to Lenny, who was sleeping.

‘It doesn’t matter if my love is one-sided.’

Sera, whose feelings of greed have not yet awakened, became satisfied even if only she had this feeling.

Even if she just shouted “I love you” To him who was sleeping, she was Sera who felt ecstasy at the deep feeling that she was alive in the world.

“I came first”

She was annoyed by Eren standing still and staring at her, so Sera told Eren to move away as if this was her seat.

Whoever came first wins. He was Sarah claiming the position.

“Ugh…”

Eren couldn’t think of anything to refute. Sarah couldn’t beat her with her logic because she always spoke her truth.

“Get out of here quickly. You’re in the way.”

If Eren continued to be in her room, she insisted that she see her and leave her room because she could not love her any more.

“You…What are you doing?”

Sensing Sera’s strange behavior in her, Eren asked her. She wondered if what she was seeing was sincere.

“If a man and a woman in love are alone in a room, isn’t it obvious?”

Seeing Sarah unbuttoning Lenny’s clothes as she lay there, Eren covered her mouth and couldn’t contain her astonishment.

‘Mi..Crazy…’

Eren’s head couldn’t comprehend Sera’s blind love for her. The form of her Eren’s love was still a little caring for her others. But what about Sara?

I think it doesn’t matter what her opponent’s feelings are.

‘If you only love me, that’s enough’

That was the form of love Sarah had.

If she stays like this, she will be deprived of Lenny.

“That..Stop it..!”

Sensing her sense of danger, Eren grabbed Sarah’s hand as she was unbuttoning Lenny and shouted.

“Shh, what do you do when you wake up?”

She wasn’t angry with Eren for disturbing her, the only thing that mattered was that Lenny didn’t wake her up.

‘Today is not because of Eren.’

The more she tried to do something here, the more Sera sensed that Eren would interfere, so she decided to take a special measure.

“Then let’s do this. You lie down too”

Sera, who had no desire to monopolize Lenny because her greed didn’t exist, readily gave Eren the left side of her Lenny.

“Uh…?”

I have come to a situation where I have been worried for a while.

I didn’t like the situation where Sera was monopolizing Lenny, but in the current situation? A state where I can’t do anything because I’ve taken her place.

Eren’s worries did not last long. Sarah’s proposal had more benefits than losses.

“Sarah, I will watch over you”

She couldn’t watch her move further than she did, so Eren, more nervous than usual, lay down on Lenny’s left side and grabbed his arm.

Eren’s heart was not so comfortable after one of her arms was taken away, but she was Eren who felt fortunate to have at least one arm.

‘Why is my heart so stuffy…?’

I thought it was okay to give her one arm, but when she came to Sing Huang like that, her heart began to feel uncomfortable.

Little by little she was realizing that she was better off with both arms.

‘Something is uncomfortable…’

The seeds of her greed continued to grow while eating nutrients.

“I want to leave this mission”

Shiana was excluded from this mission in the name of protecting her mansion. Perhaps she seemed reluctant to go to the imperial castle again.

I was able to fill the vacant seat of Siana, the archer of the warrior party.

‘I’ll come too. I can protect one by myself.’

She was Eren, who was reluctant to let me go with her, but she came along because of my earnest request.

Because he changed from a warrior’s party archer to a hero’s party’s butler. Compared to before, I felt very shabby, but I was a trained swordsman in my own way.

I don’t know English, but this body. Lenny’s body was trained in swordsmanship.

The calluses on the palms and the movements of the sword that the body remembers. It was an obvious proof of training for those who had trained the sword.

Perhaps Lenny before I was possessed was a butler and a prosecutor.

She was a person with a double job, not much different from me now.

“Is the butler really leaving too..?”

The saintess started asking me again if I couldn’t believe that I was going with her.

I was the rearguard of the party, and if I couldn’t protect the saintess, she would be more worried than others because her physical ability would be weak and she wouldn’t be able to avoid her death.

“It’s okay Laysha, what can happen when we’re here?”

It was Eren who said something uneasy.

“We’ll come back, keep the mansion well”

So, after leaving Sianna at the mansion, we were leaving for the imperial castle in a carriage for her mission.

Nothing particularly happened in the wagon on the way to the imperial castle.

Sera, who looked at me the other day, seemed to have returned to her original state, and was taking on her usual appearance.

According to Eren, Sarah was curious and said that she was like that.

I was worried about the scent that brushed my nose, but it was assumed that Sarah borrowed Eren’s perfume and used it.

‘Is it fashionable these days?’

It was Lenny who was drunk with incense and didn’t know anything.

In this way, the carriage arrived at the imperial castle, and we got off the carriage and were welcomed by the princess’s aides and walked toward the princess’s place.

ㅡOh my, isn’t that Deacon Lenny?

People who knew me who worked at the imperial castle often recognized me and looked at me curiously as I was wearing a sword in the middle of a party of warriors.

“Princess Aine, the warrior party has arrived.”

“Please come in.”

1 Princess Aine’s voice resounded clear and led us to the visit.

“Welcome, warrior party members”

I don’t know if it’s right that I’m not welcomed, but I decided to say hello.

“It’s been a while. Princess Aine.”

The princess was surprised, her eyes wide open as if she had recognized me at the back of the hero’s party.

“Deacon Lenny…? How is this…”

Because she was Aine who was close with Aria, she was an acquaintance of the princess and I. It was the moment when I remembered the image of her holding my hand saying that she was taking care of Aria.

Aine was a person who cared very much for her younger sister, Aria.

“Well, that’s how it happened…”

There was no time to explain the details, so I decided to move on to the main topic.

“As for the escort request, what is written there is correct, right?”

As the party representative, Eren started talking about the request.

“Yes, please protect us from him.”

From noble mtl dot com

After saying that, Princess Aine started sending people around her out of the room.

“Princess!”

“It’s okay, these guys are trustworthy”

There were attendants who resisted being bitten by her escort, but Aine seemed to trust us, and it was a situation where we could see how kind she was to her entourage.

If she had been a coercive princess, the attendants would not have been able to express their opinions like that.

With that, only us and the princess were left in the room, and she started talking about the details of her request with a stern expression.

“Please protect me and Arya.”

The prince will kill us.

This was the moment when the identity of the person who killed her in her original work was revealed.

“Prince Henry intends to kill us at the Irish Empire’s founding festival in three days.”

1St Prince Henry, one of the main causes of Arya’s madness in the original work, and one of the most influential figures as the emperor’s successor.

“How do you know that?”

Since Aine spoke confidently, Sera questioned her confidence.

“I can see the future.”

That was the reason she had to save the princess unconditionally.

A being who reads the future. It was because he was the owner of an outrageous ability that only existed in the world.

‘Are you the owner of the same ability as the teacher?’

Eren was still under the illusion that Lenny could see the future.
