We were quite far from the plains, and there was no sign of the Demon King Army chasing after us nearby.After confirming this, I slowed down and took a breather.
“Hah~…… I’m glad things worked out somehow.”
Without any major impact on history, we managed to survive against the legendary Six Supremacy and their army, while still managing to deceive them.
I’m sorry about all the things I did to Norja though.
“Not good!”
“…… Huh?”
“Not good at all!”
Then, while I was relieved in many ways, Espie was pouting as she remained stubbornly attached to me, clinging tightly in my arms, not making any effort to run or fly on her own, though she floated her luggage close by.
“Big brother left me.”
“L, like I said, that…”
“I’ll never forgive you. I won’t forgive you if you leave me again. Do you understand?”
“…………”
If I were from this time period, I would have hugged her and promised never to leave her again.
But I couldn’t do that, all I could do was smile bitterly.
“Oh~, was it okay not to say hello to any of them? It seems that there were some Allied soldiers among those prisoners, and maybe you knew each other…”
“I don’t care. I’m not with the Allied Forces anymore.”
“…………”
She doesn’t care.
In fact, Espie seemed to have fought Tre’ainar in the final battle.
So, she doesn’t leave the Allied Forces.
When I think about that, my heart aches for Espie, who was so attached to me.
How am I supposed to leave Espie … alone…?
“Is it okay that we ran away this far for now?”
“Un.”
“……………”
As I looked behind me, relieved that everything was going to be okay, I noticed that Slayer, who was standing next to me, was staring at me intently.
“Are you okay with your injuries?”
“Huh? Oh yes…… no….. hmm…”
“Kuhahaha, that was a disaster for you too.”
It was a bad educational experience for the kid, or rather, it was likely traumatic.
What I’m worried about was not the injury, but the mental aspect.
“Um… Ragaan-Man……”
“No, no more Ragaan-Man.”
“Ah…”
Come to think of it, I left the mask on.
I took off the mask I was wearing.
“Oh… just as I thought…”
Slayer was a little surprised, but he immediately nodded in agreement.
“Somehow, with the way Espie behaved and that footwork … I had a feeling… but it really was you…”
“Hehe, yeah well.”
Come to think of it, Espie noticed me right away even with the mask, but Slayer didn’t.
“Ragaan-Man… that’s your name…”
“No, no, Ragaan-Man is not my real name… just, I had to hide my name and face due to various circumstances.”
“Not your real name? Circumstances?”
“Well, don’t get hung up on the details. More than that, you see. There are all kinds of people in this world, but not all women are like that―――― “
“E, erm!”
“…… Hmm?”
I was about to offer some emotional support, but suddenly Slayer’s voice was loud and his expression serious, so I wondered what was going on…
“Why… did you help me?”
“Huh?”
“What are you trying to do by helping me? What are you trying to use me for?”
What was this guy talking about? On the other hand, I had a similar exchange just recently.
“Big brother, what is this kid talking about?”
No, you said the same thing he said a while ago!?
“It’s nothing special, there was a kid in trouble right in front of me… if he was within my reach, I couldn’t just leave him there.”
“I’m not a kid! I… I… I’m a Hunter… and it’s all my own fault…”
He looks like he’s about to vomit blood in frustration.
Apparently, unlike me, who grew up without inconvenience, I imagine that he must have lived a very difficult life.
But still…
“Listen, Slayer. Just remember this.”
I didn’t mean to preach, but I wanted to say something in my own way.
“You’re good. A genius. There’s no doubt about that. But there are people out there who are even better than you, with more experience and more talent. I meet guys all the time who are stronger than me, you know?”
“Eh… stronger than you…?”
“Yeah. Actually, I didn’t defeat Norja by myself this time either, and if Norja had seriously intended to kill me from the beginning, it wouldn’t have ended the same way.”
“Eh!?”
“That’s why, you always have to be aware of your current strength and situation. How strong am I now? What can I do? What can’t I do? And then, do I fight? Do I run away? Is it a place where I should focus on how to win? Is it a situation where I should put my life on the line? I know you’re strong and talented, but you still can’t judge how strong you are against your opponent’s power, or can you make decisions based on the situation, right?”
I feel like everything I say comes back to me like a boomerang.
Tre’ainar was grinning beside me.
“Wh, what… being so snobbish…”
“Kuhaha, you’re right. That’s why I’m still training. I’m still immature… so I need to be stronger.”
Hearing my words, Slayer flinched, clenching his fists and trembling.
“Big brother is already strong enough~”
“My strength still has a long way to go!”
“Then…I’m going to get stronger, too!”
“Oh… Espie is strong enough already…”
Anger? Chagrin?
“H… hmph…… for someone so flirty clingy and thoughtlessly giggly… what are you saying… what…… after all…… who do you think I am? And yet… I can’t talk back…”
“Well, if you’re frustrated, about yesterday’s game of tag and what happened today… then you should get stronger.”
“Strong… ku…”
But I felt that he wasn’t just frustrated, something from my words got to him
Then Slayer, who had been looking downcast, had a somewhat tearful expression on his face, as if wanting some consolation…
“Th, then… you make me stronger!”
“…… Huh?”
“M… make me… your disciple… and make me stronger!”
…… Eh?
I didn’t see this request coming. This is unexpected.
『Puk, kukukuku…』
「Hey, Tre’ainar, what are you laughing about?」
『No, no, tis nothing… still…… well, tis fine as well, is it not?』
「Hey, is this like when I trained Mortriage’s crew in Cacretale… about learning by becoming a teacher?」
『Tis so, but… well…… either way, he will be with us on the journey from here on out.』
「Huh?」
Traveling together? What do you mean? I mean, sure, I saved Slayer, but…
『Oi, have you forgotten? The wish these two had before you came to this age?』
「…… eh…」
For a moment I didn’t know what he was talking about, but after a little thought, I quickly remembered.
That’s right… at that time… well… that’s what they meant…
“Hey, what are you talking about? Big brother is mine, so he doesn’t need a disciple!”
“…… Hmph.”
I can’t imagine it from the two kids in front of me right now, but I was certainly asked by them.
“I’m still in the middle of my training, I’m in the process of being mentored by my Master. How can I take on a disciple?”
“But…”
“But!”
“?”
“I can’t be a Master, but… I can guide you… no….. I can do something for you while we are together for a while.”
“Eh!”
So, I decided to grant that wish.
“Hey, Big brother!?”
“So, will you take me as your disciple?”
Espie, who was strongly possessive, didn’t approve, but this couldn’t be helped.
“M, Master!”
“No, no, no, stop, don’t call me master. I’m still not good enough to be called that yet.”
“Well, then…… Mister… Ragaan-Man…”
“No, that’s not my real name either…”
“Then, what should I call you…”
“Ah~…… That’s right…”
Up until now, he’s been an edgy and difficult kid, but Slayer’s eyes were shining with excitement.
When I think about it, I feel a little embarrassed …
“So… Well, then… B….. Brother…”
Oh… how… cute……
“Hey… what are you saying? Big brother is my brother!”
“Brother! I will carry the luggage for you!”
“Oh, my praises are at stake! Big brother, I’ll carry the luggage! It would have been more fun to make them float.”
“I’ll get it!”
“Me!”
“It’s me!”
And Espie and Slayer immediately start arguing in front of me.
While looking at them like that, I once again remember their wish.
――Hold on to it… I want you to go to Shiznautmy with ‘me’ and ‘Slayer’. I know it’s selfish of me. But that’s what we want.
――Brother, meeting you and embarking on a journey to Shiznautmy with you… that’s our wish. We didn’t know anything… so please guide us.
This is what you wanted, right? Espie…… Slayer……
「Good grief… even so, things got kind of lively…」
『Certainly… to think this would be what happened behind the scenes unknown to history.』
Anyway, this was how my journey to Shiznautmy became “four people”.
“Ha~ fine, you guys, for tonight’s dinner… let’s eat curry!”
“Yay! Curry♪ Curry♪ Curry~♪”
“Kari? I don’t really get it… but if Brother says so, okay?”
And once again I will cross this world in this era.
