Chapter 2

As I walked down the stone-paved corridor, I could hear a sound. A sound other than the clanking sound of my heavy armor and my footsteps.

SWISH SWISH

The sound of something cutting through the wind. I continued to walk for a while before I arrived at an open area.

Aleine-san.

I raised my voice. This was the training ground. The training ground for the knight.

Ah, Zero. Whats the matter?

A husky and cool sounding female voice could be heard. The one who was in the training ground for the knight was Aleine-san, the captain of the knight. There was a greatsword as big as I was in her hand. She must have been practicing waving that greatsword before I called out to her.

She had neat, shoulder-length, short blonde hair and beautiful blue eyes. She was a beautiful woman who was much taller than me and had a voluptuous muscular body, a very different body compared to my feebly thin one. She was the person that saved my life.

One year ago. I was suddenly transported into another world and was in a state of confusion when she picked me up and took care of me. It was not an exaggeration to say that I was able to survive in this other world thanks to this person.

The Kingdom of Patrasia. I was transported into this Patrasia Kingdom and she was the captain of the knight here. She was the person that arbitrarily admitted me into the knight. I was really indebted to her as the person who saved my life and my superior.

My apologies. Ive interrupted your training.

I apologized to Alaine-san and handed her a towel for her to wipe her sweat off. By doing so, the thick scent of Alaine-sans sweat assaulted me.

Sniff Whoa Sniff sniff.

The smell of a womans sweat is really nice.

No. Its fine. Theres no problem at all. So? Whats the matter?

I took a deep breath and put on a serious expression on my face.

I have something important to tell you.

!!

Hearing my words, I could see Alaine-sans face twitching. It was truly a rare phenomenon for Alaine-sans expression to change, even just for a moment since basically her expression never changed.

When can we talk?

. I-I see. Then how about tonight at my place?

I understand. Then tonight I will visit Alaine-sans room.

Yeah. You do that. Remember to be careful so you wont get caught.

? Oh, yes.

I inclined my head to the side at Aleine-sans words but I still nodded my head nonetheless.

Why do I need to be careful not to get caught?

While it was true that itd be a little problematic for a man like me to visit Alaine-sans room since she was not married yet, this wouldnt be the first time I went to her room though. I had already visited her room several times before.

And so Why now? I dont understand but since Aleine-san said so, I just need to follow her lead. Maybe theres something else going on.

Then I will see you again tonight.

. Ye-Yeah!

Alaine-sans voice was higher than usual. I then left the training ground although my mind was still confused at the meaning behind her words.

T/N: Poor Alaine! Shes going to be so disappointed! ()
