We Defeated the Demon and Disbanded Without Any Conflict

20 – past_princess_3

[For a mortal, you dare to expose this body!!!]

“Aren’t you mortal?”

[not! I, in the demon realm…]

“This is not the demon realm, but the human realm?”

[Keep holding on to the horse’s tail and don’t let it hang down, human!! aaa!!]

“Do I really have to show that I’m sick?”

Ron had really subdued the Demon Realm. With a light heart, I should take a walk too.

Since Mirsen couldn’t play the role of a single person yet, it was no exaggeration to say that he subdued it alone.

Ron, who plunged his knife into the sphere that looked like a nucleus, was hanging on to the end of the sphere with the same blunt tone as always.

Mirsen stared at him blankly. Now that the first hero and his party have completely disbanded and withdrew from the front, what will happen if this strongman’s name is known?

Of course, there was no great danger like when the demon king was alive, but even now, in areas outside the borders, monsters that continue to target human lands are forming colonies.

The Mobile Fortress moved with the sound of steam, and occasionally sent monsters acting as scouts to the empire.

“Princess.”

Ron, who pulled out the sword embedded in the completely silent orb, spoke to her.

“Please keep things related to me a secret. Let’s just say that an ordinary adventurer and the princess joined forces to defeat the Demon Lord.”

“But… no matter how much I think about it, I don’t understand why you’re making such a proposal for me.

And her doubts were not resolved. This is because the moment Ron opened his mouth, the Mobile Fortress, which had lost its core, began to collapse.

The place where you were stepping on is slowly collapsing. It must have risen quite high, and cold air enters through the cracks in the floor.

“..!!”

Mirsen, speechless and pale, hugged Ron. Regardless of whether or not he had a fear of heights, he was in danger of falling from a high place, so he had to be scared.

The person right next to me was fine.

“You’re going to be punished for touching it carelessly, right?”

Ron said such carefree words as if he was okay with the risk of falling to death, then hugged Mirsen around the waist.

As soon as I felt his firm, warm, reliable hand, my fear disappeared like a lie.

Origin unknown, dubious attire.

A certain skill and a pain that I don’t want to know.

Kindness that extends a hand even to first-time adventurers.

Aloof from wealth and honor.

The attitude of not caring about the position of the other person.

A willingness to share what you have.

All of this was deeply rooted in Mirsen’s heart, and she already felt feelings beyond liking for the unknown man.

Isn’t this man who saved his life several times by acting with him right in front of him rather than the warrior Rain Guard-on, who only briefly saw his back?

“Hero…”

“I am not a warrior.”

Ron waved his hand at the sudden change of title. It had been a long time since the two of them set foot on the grass, following the escape route Ron had discovered.

The sound of something heavy falling behind them is heard. However, Mirsen’s ears did not hear that sound.

I thought the development of “I fell in love when I woke up” was trite, but I knew it when I was in that situation.

‘It was something that attracted my heart before I had time to react.’

Now, with only the sound of her heart beating in her ears, Mirsen vowed to use all of her power and status for the ‘real’ hero who saved her.

If it’s long, the long story is over. Although it was Lane who knew me well in the first place, she also did not know why I was wearing a bandage.

“Thank you. Princess, can I call Solar now?”

After Rain bowed his head, he spoke of the biggest reason for Mirsen’s coming. But Mirsen was crossing my arms as if it didn’t matter anymore.

It wasn’t going to let go, so I was a little scared. To put it bluntly, it wasn’t Mirsen who was afraid, but Rain, who spewed out golden mana.

Aren’t you stronger than you were in your prime? I don’t think it’s okay to be an academy dean, but I think I can play active duty?

“It’s okay. I have a lot to talk about with the hero now.”

The refusal, which was not at all euphemistic, seemed to move Lane’s brows. I could feel the flow of mana that forced me to quit my job, so it must be so.

“What do you want to share?”

“Hero, it’s not long before I become that gold-class adventurer!”

Mirsen’s cute smile makes me feel like I’m seeing a neighborhood kid who follows me well..

“Ron, what are you doing?”

“ah.”

I stroked his hair. Along with that subtle scent, the smooth feel of the hair that seems to flow down is conveyed.

The moment his fingertips touched the small head, he heard Lane’s absurd voice, and only then was he able to come to his senses.

phew. It was dangerous. It’s already happened, but I’m glad I didn’t pet it further. This is why people who are younger and stick to the position of juniors are dangerous. Without realizing it, I end up acting like this.

“More… won’t you stroke me..?”

I’m glad I covered my eyes with a bandage. If I had seen it with my eyes open, I would have just skipped it.

“hahahaha. How could I pet the princess’s head?”

“You did it earlier… And I worked hard to get praise from the hero…”

Don’t twitch your fingers, the requested princess junior. If you act like that now, you’re already small, you could stroke it like a real mess.

“Princess. You may have eyes to see, so be careful with your actions..”

“Whoa… I’ve confirmed that there’s no magic to watch over. I’ve put all my effort into researching magic myself.”

“Still, I don’t think there’s anything bad about it, just in case.”

“First hero, by any chance you have feelings for my hero, don’t you? Since it’s a relationship between a dean and a student.

At those words, which ended as if to give her room, Lane drew in a breath.

The accent was always a cute tone, but the sense of intimidation from the position was greater than expected.

“..Of course it is. As the princess said, it is the relationship between the dean and the students.”

After a very short silence, Lane shook her head slightly and put the teacup on the table.

“However, this cadet right now definitely belongs to our academy, and as a result of the princess’s actions just now, attention was drawn to the cadet. Now, this cadet’s grades are in the middle ranks. In such a position, the contact with the princess will attract attention. If you do, you will receive not only goodwill, but also evil looks.”

“that’s..”

“I want to exclude as much as possible a situation in which a cadet could suffer damage due to outside intervention, not individual skills.”

“But with your hero’s skills, you should be able to subdue those who have malicious intent for no reason. More than that, why is my hero as an academy student? I thought you were definitely a top-notch adventurer.”

“Ah, I was just wandering around and experiencing various things. Even among adventurers, those with considerable skills are classified as a hero, and I heard that such people graduated from the academy, so I applied.”

“I see. Do you have any plans to come back to the Empire?”

“Princess, this cadet is currently in the academy. The academy respects your will, but if you engage in time-consuming activities during the semester, your grades will be penalized.”

At Lane’s words, which seemed to be in check, Mirsen began to murmur as if contemplating something.

“Isn’t it really necessary? Something like grades?”

“Yes? May I ask what you mean?”

“You said you had many experiences while traveling around, right? Doesn’t graduating from the academy mean nothing? Staying here for at least 5 years is different from what the hero just said.”

“..is that so?”

Lane asked me. Her tone was calm, a half step lower than usual, but having spent quite a while with Lane, I could tell she was very flustered.

It must be anxiety about not knowing when I might leave, a colleague I hadn’t seen for a long time.

Rain may have lived his life forging relationships with many people, but it would be absurd to compare a comrade who fought back to back with death right in front of him in the first place, and an acquaintance he had a conversation with in a peaceful era. They must have been anxious because they were close enough to disallow comparison.

But I needed time to think, so I pretended not to hear Lane’s question and shoved the cookie into my mouth. It’s sweet and delicious..

“Really?”

The citrus scent wafted in and at the same time, the blurry vision slightly darkened. Lane was right in front of me.

No, we’re between the dean and the cadets…

Before he had time to say the word, Mirsen let out a shrieking sound and pulled Lane.

“What… what what what are you doing! The person called the first hero at the dean doesn’t behave properly!”

Is it self-destruction? She pushes away while saying the same thing for herself, but since there was a difference in physical ability in the first place, Lane’s body was truly immovable.

“I’m sorry, Princess. But I don’t want news to be lost because a cadet with talent goes on an adventure without prior knowledge.”

“That kind of worry…”

You don’t have to do it- Mirsen, who was about to say, kept his mouth shut, probably thinking of the precedent.

“So, really?”

“Dean, these cookies are delicious. Where did you get them?”

I said that to skip the incoming question once again, but that was a bad choice.

“..Princess, I’m sorry.”

It was because after Rain said that, he cast a spatial movement towards Myrsene that seemed to have a lot of intentions.
