CH 95

At Thruster-san’s words, every one became a scene all at once.

“Various investigations and adjustments have been completed. First of all, about this barrier. . .”

Thruster-san didn’t care about everyone’s reaction and just said it indifferently.

“It will last for a thousand years.”

“Thousand.”

Eh, no. Eh?

Isn’t Shizuku-chan amazing?

“Therefore, there is no longer any need for the Saint-sama.”

He made eye contact with Shizuku-chan who was next to him.

I don’t like Thruster-san’s way of saying it, but that means. . .

“Does that mean Shizuku-chan is free?”

“Well, that’s what it means. A barrier has been set up, and that barrier will be maintained for a thousand years. In that case, there is no need to keep the saint-sama in the royal palace.”

“Is it okay if I stay with Shina-san?”

“You are free to do so. From our side, we have nothing but gratitude for you. The top says that anything you wish will come true.”

Thruster-san answers without emotion.

I think it’s irresponsible, but for me it’s the best!

“You did it, Shizuku-chan. We can be together!”

“. . . . Yes.”

“Let’s go shopping for clothes and eat desserts together!”

The dreams our growing. . .!

“. . . I’m happy when Shina-san smiles.”

Shizuku-chan smiled softly, so I smiled back.

We could see Zezgard-san holding his chest, but let’s pretend we didn’t see it for now.

“Next, a new Special Forces Corps was created.”

“A new special squad?”

“Yes. The special forces with the saint-sama up until now have accomplished their missions, and they’ve changed their positions. All of them have been promoted.”

“What do you mean?”

“It’s a mission to escort someone with an unknown skill called [Summon Kitchen].”

“Oh.”

In other words, my bodyguard. I see.

. . . . .I see?

When I tilted my head, Hurst-san was staring at me. . .

“I heard about the barrier from Thruster-san, and decided to resign as Vice-Commander of the Northern Knight Order.”

“Eh!? Are you going to quit, Vice-Commander!?”

“Eh, no, eh!?”

The members are disturbed by Hurst-san’s bombshell remarks.

Hurst-san nodded when he moved his gaze to them.

“Now that the barrier has been replaced, it will be very rare for this place to fall into a crisis. Especially since the barrier this time is special. You need to go into the forest and hunt animals just like before, but then you guys will be able to deal with it alone. That’s how you’ve been trained.”

“Well, that’s true, but. . .!”

Garrez-san raised his voice while being dissatisfied with Hurst-san, who evaluated the power of the members and saying they would be okay.

“I can’t eat Isarai-sama’s food!”

“Really!? I don’t like that!”

“But look at the vice-commander’s eyes. . .”

“Can you stop that kind of thing?”

“That genocidal vice-commander is looking like that. How can we say this?”

The members who were whispering to each other look at Hurst-san.

And look at me too.

Their gazes went back and forth several times. . .

“. . . . good luck.”

. . . I think they agreed.

After confirming that, Hurst-san turns to face me.

And took my hand.

“Shina-sama. Continue the promise.”

“Continue the promise?”

“Yes.”

“The promise from when we were at the royal palace.”

Hurst-san’s eyes that the members spoke about are the usual light blue eyes.

. . . Soft and hot.

Colors that get my heart racing.

“. . .I want to travel the world with you.”

Hurst-san’s hands are warm.

It reminds me of many things. . .

“For the first time, when this country demands something against Shina-sama’s will, it is a promise to protect you from the hands of the royal palace.”

When we ate tomato bruschetta.

I said, ‘Please show me a lot of fun things about this world. Please show me a lot of delicious food. Please show me the scenery that I have never seen before.’

“For the second time, when I said that I would return to the Northern Knights, Shina-sama wanted to follow me. . . That’s why the promise was fulfilled.”

. . . . . .When I heard that Hurst-san was going back to the Northern Knights, I asked him to take me there.

‘Is that promise still valid?’ I brought up the promise we made when we ate tomato bruschetta.

Hurst-san made that happen for me.

He listened to my selfishness.

“The third time. . .”

My body that had been sitting was lifted up.

When I realized that, the feeling of floating in my body disappeared, and I was tightly wrapped in something warm.

“. . . For me.”

The voice that echoes in my ear is sexy.

“I want to be with you. Because I want to make your wishes come true with my own hands.”

Prompted by that voice, when I look up, my favorite color is there.

. . . .Glittering light blue.

“Eh?”

Not close? And before I knew it, my line of sight was higher than Hurst-san.

Wait, what’s the situation now?

Oh, this one is being held like a child again like before!?

I tried to move away from the hands that are gently attached to my waist, but I couldn’t escape at all. . .

“I want to enjoy you more.”

“Hi!!”

Now, I’m being captured. . .!?

Will I be able to eat like this. . .!?

“And so, Volvi was appointed at the captain of the Special Forces.”

The calm voice of Thruster-san resounded.

A louder, brighter voice.

“Shina-san! I joined the special forces too!”

For some reason, that bright voice began to enchant-

“I was hugged so hard in front of everyone, I can’t leave you anymore.”

Bad words.

Greatly misrepresented.

“. . . For now, I’m here too. Isn’t it better to have a means of transportation? Gyabussh says he wants to be with you too.”

“Shasha!”

Also the voices of Zezgard-san and Gyabussh. . .

“Me too, there’s nothing I won’t do!”

Ash’s voice.

“Shina-san, let’s have a lot of fun together.”

Shizuku-chan’s voice.

“Everyone, together. . .”

. . .A new world.

. . .A new encounter.

. . .New flavor.

“. . . with Hurst-san.”

If I can live happily in this world.

. . . That must be invincible.

“Can I decide where to go?”

“Yes. To the place Shina-sama wants.”

I look at everyone from where Hurst-san lifted me up.

Everyone was looking at me and smiling. . .

Where shall we go?

What shall I do?

“. . .If it’s with everyone, anywhere is fine.”

Yes. I’m sure we’ll have fun wherever we go.

But, if you insist. . .

“I want to go to the sea!”

. . . .Because I want to eat delicious fish!

And this marks the end of the second part. Look forward to part three staring tomorrow!
