Volume 9: Epilogue II - Dear, big brother!
-About one week after we returned to Axel.
I was about put the plate down to feed Chomusuke, but I was interrupted by Megumin as she entered the room.
“…Kazuma, aren’t you feeding it a bit too much? You shouldn’t dote on it so much, you know?”
“But this guy hasn’t stopped eating—Here here, eat more and grow up quickly~”
Before you become that onee-san, I hope we can get along well.
Also, please forgive Megumin for using explosion magic on you.
“…There’s a letter for Kazuma. I don’t really know what’s it about though.”
A letter for me?
“Is it that dragon egg salesman again? Ever since I bought Emperor Zell, he’s been sending these letters every day.”
The idiot who got tricked lured a lot of scammers to this house.
“If it was sent to Kazuma, then it probably isn’t anything good. Let me take a look.”
“Here it is… I can’t help but feel like I’ve seen this envelope somewhere…”
Megumin passed the envelope to Darkness…
Darkness opened the envelope and peeked inside. Without a moment’s delay, she shoved it in her chest pocket.
“… Hey, what are you trying to do with a letter addressed to me?”
“… It is as Aqua said, it’s just a letter from the dragon salesman.”
“It’s just as I divined! Isn’t this great Kazuma? The mails sent to me all address me as ‘This letter is addressed to the one destined to a dragon, an adventurer of great fame and might.’”
Ignoring Aqua who was saying stupid things again, I said to Darkness, who tried to avoid my gaze:
“Hey, give me the let—.”
“I refuse.”
Darkness replied in an instant, and proceeded to roll herself into a ball, as if she was pregnant woman protecting her child.
Seeing her action, I could tell who the sender of the letter was.
Because I’ve seen Darkness do this before.
“It’s Iris, right!? Iris sent me that letter, right!?”
“How did you guess!? No, I mean, this is just a—!”
I mercilessly stretched my hand towards Darkness’ chest as she desperately tried to refute my claims.
“AAhhhhhhhh!?”
“Look! As I thought, this is a letter sent to me by Iris!”
Darkness put her hands by her chest and bent down.
Hmpf, don’t think that I wouldn’t lay a hand on the letter just because you put it by your chest.
After all, I am no longer the wuss that I was. I have been reincarnated as a ruthless man.
As I was thoroughly experiencing the thrill of my victory, I opened the letter.
Undoing the royal seal, I unfolded the letter—
‘Dear Onii-sama,
I have heard of your great achievements at the fortress nearby. You always seem to dive headfirst into danger, so I have been a bit worried about your wellbeing…’
Just reading the header of the letter has warmed my heart.
‘This time, I have a request for Onii-sama, who has become one of the nation’s greatest adventurers.’
Then I read the last sentence.
“Actually, I am going to meet with the prince of a neighboring country with whom I have an arranged marriage with, so I would like to hire onii-sama as my bodyguard—”
And viciously ripped the letter.
Author’s afterword
Megumin has been very Megumin in this volume, but I’ve decided that she should feel the stench of this love quite soon.
I didn’t really intend to do so forcefully, but there is a limit to my skills as an innocent and inexperienced writer.
I will continue to try out new writing elements, and try to improve every day. One day, I will write something that will make everyone laugh out loud.
In the volume, I have been helped by Mishima Kurone-sensei, S-san, and all the people related to the publishing process. Everyone has helped the book see a peaceful and successful release.
