Chapter 50 – I’ve been found out

 

The Crown Prince accepted the annulment of the engagement and left as if fleeing.
While watching it off in a daze, Celes-san muttered,

 

“This means, I don’t have to marry such pig anymore, do I…?” (Celes)

 

Ce, Celes-san, your inner thought was out!?
Even so, he was still a prince… to be called a pig was…

 

“That’s right! Good for you! Celes-oneechan!” (Layla)
“Yes…! It’s thanks to you too, Layla-san!” (Celes)
“After all, you should marry someone you love!” (Layla)
“M, marry someone I love…” (Celes)

 

At that moment, I felt that Celes-san glanced at me.
It was just my imagination, wasn’t it?

 

“No, it would be ideal if I could do that, but I’m a princess after all…” (Celes)
“Eee, you don’t have to mind about that!” (Layla)
“I still have to …” (Celes)

 

As the two were arguing, the king came here.

 

“Celestia……. I’m sorry. You’re about to marry someone you hated so much, even for the sake of the country…….It’s indeed, he’s nothing more than a pig.”

 

Your majesty, you just heard Celes-san call him a pig……
But then you still did say “he’s nothing more than a pig”?

 

“Father…..” (Celes)
“Then again, what can I say to thank both of you……. I never thought that you would be able to defeat such a monster……, and those uniforms, I see, you two are students of the Royal Academy…… Mmm……? The red hair of yours, I think I’ve seen those before…….” (Rahaldt)

 

And then.
Layla and I felt a nostalgic presence and looked up at the sky in unison.

 

“Whoa! It’s papa!” (Layla)

It was father who was descending from the sky.
Layla happily ran to father and hugged him.

 

“It’s been a long time, Layla. How have you been?” (Arel)
“Unn! I’m completely fine!” (Layla)
“Otou-san? Why are you here?” (Ark)
“Well, actually…” (Arel)

 

Father answered my question, looking back at Bahamut’s corpse.

 

“I’ve been chasing this guy. I was fighting it before, but unfortunately, I let it go.” (Arel)

 

Eeeh?
So it was your fault that Bahamut came here?

 

“Well, it seems that you two defeated it, so it’s all good.” (Arel)

 

That’s right, but….
Well, if I thought about it another point, it also saved Celes-san from that political marriage…….

 

For some reason, the king was surprised when he saw my father, as I had mixed emotions.

 

“Y, you are…!” (Rahaldt)
“Nn?” (Arel)
“Could it be that you are the young man who saved our country four years ago?!” (Rahaldt)
“Hmm?” (Arel)

 

Father tilted his head.
I guess he had been completely forgotten about it.

 

“Otou-san, he’s the king of this country. Four years ago, we stopped by this country on our way to the Demon Lord’s Palace, and I believe we’ve met then.” (Ark)
“Is that so?” (Arel)
“A, as I thought! You managed to defeat the Demon Lord! I see! Then, the children who were with you at that time were them! It’s no wonder they are incredibly strong!” (Rahaldt)

 

The king who was so excited then shouted out an order to his subordinates.

 

At the training ground where the members of the knight order practiced hard.
As an instructor, I was teaching swords to all the Knights.

"Then, the next step is to swing the sword a thousand times. You won't improve just by swinging blindly. You need to imagine the opponent's movement."
""A, thousand times?""
"Kaizer-san. Are you sure you not making a mistake one digit?"
"Oh, right."
"Hoo~..."
"When I and Elsa were in the village, we used to swing 10,000 times a day, but, you guys won't be done until the day changes, will you?
""You misinterpret the word mistake on one digit, are you?""

The standard of my and Elsa's training was probably too high, and most of them couldn't follow even the light menu.

"Come on, you'd better hurry up or it's going to get dark."

I clapped my hands and urged them.
The knights began to swing their swords while screaming.
As the warming up, they were running ten times around the training ground with their armor on, few of them could swing their swords properly.

"Is Knight Commander Elsa doing this training from an early age..."
"I thought she was a genuine genius swordsman.....that's why she's so strong.. we didn't even reach half effort she did."
"Either Kaizer-dono or Knight Commander Elsa is outrageous..."

I saw the helpless knights and mumbled.

"Umm. Looks like our normal isn't everyone's normal.''
"I was surprised when I came to the royal capital, because the training of the Knights, which was known to be tough, was felt only in lukewarm water. The training I had done with chichiue was, to most people, out of the norm."

Elsa murmured next to me.

"I didn't mean to be particularly strict...."
"I think so, too"

The knights couldn't endure the training and exhausted. Then one by one, they fell like a broken doll.
But, one person among them――.

“Everyone! Prepare for the banquet! We will hold a grand banquet for the messiah who saved our country, no, the entire world!” (Rahaldt)

“I’ve never thought of you being the child of a hero who saved the world. Now it all makes sense.” (Lanta)

 

Lanta said in amazement

 

“I’m nothing compared to my father.” (Ark)
“No no, when both of you defeat Bahamut, you’re both above the clouds. Right, Ark-sama?” (Lanta)
“Stop calling me that way…” (Ark)

 

Several days have already passed since the king’s speech the other day.
Because it became known that I was the son of the hero who defeated the demon lord, everyone added “-sama” to me and treated me like a hero.
Under such circumstances, Lanta was one of the few friends who kept up with me with the same attitude as before.

 

By the way, after being welcomed by the entire country as a hero, my father left saying, “I think I’ll go to the Netherworld next time.” (ASW: Sasuga Arel-chan)
……He might really go there.

 

“Isn’t it bad? You can not switch place with Layla-chan again, can you?” (Lanta)
“I absolutely won’t do it anymore” (Ark)
“Don’t say that, man.” (Lanta)
“Why do you want me to switch place so badly….. It’s usually Layla who does――” (Ark)
“Hey, Ark!” (Lanta)

 

…… Speak of the devil, she was.
I frowned at the bad premonition I had.

 

 

Why I had switched place again?
While wearing Layla’s uniform, I wanted to curse my own weakness.

 

It also means that I was too soft toward Layla….

 

But that’s not all.
I’ll be honest.

 

If we switched place again, I could be next to Celes-san again.
I was defeated by this intense temptation.

 

Though, I know it’s no good….
F’kin degenerate me!

 

……It was no use being depressed about it.
I’ll act as Layla properly and get back to the boys’ dormitory safely.

 

“Layla-san? Where were you going at this time?” (Celes)
“I went for a short walk!” (Ark)

 

It was just about bedtime, so when I went to Layla’s room in the girls’ dormitory I was greeted by Celes-san.
She was dressed in a lovely nightgown, something you could only see here.

 

I couldn’t see Alisa-san, probably she was in the bathroom, and Rikka, she was lying on her bed reading a book.
She grinned as she was looking at me through the book, so she must have known that I had switched place again.

 

Cecilia akhirnya sampai di depan makhluk buas itu.

Perbedaan ukurannya begitu besar sehingga ia harus mendongak untuk melihat wajah binatang itu, dan Cecilia yang ramping akan terinjak-injak dalam sekejap.



"GRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRR!!!"

"Aku ngerti...... aku ngerti kok, Julis ......"



Cecilia memeluk kaki depan yang besar dan kokoh itu.



"Itu pedih, kan? Itu menyiksa, kan? Aku yakin Julis berusaha ngelindungin seseorang terus menjadi kaya gini....... Beneran deh, Julis itu baik banget. Biarpun dia sangat menderita sendiri."



Makhluk buas itu mengarahkan kaki depannya yang lain ke Cecilia, mencoba menarik Cecilia yang memeluknya menjauh.

────lalu.



"Eh!?"

"I, ini......"



Kaki depan itu berhenti tepat pada waktunya.

Cecilia tidak terluka, dan kaki depan itu berhenti tanpa tanda perlawanan.

Namun penderitaan itu muncul dalam bentuk teriakan.



"AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAARRRRRRRRRR!!!"



Tetapi.



"Aku belum bisa balas budi sama Julis buat segalanya...... Julis selalu ngelindungi aku, tapi aku terus banyak ngerepotin Julis.────Cuma ini yang bisa aku lakuin buat Julis sekarang."



Cecilia menguatkan lengannya yang memeluk kaki depan itu.

Ia ingin kehangatannya dirasakan, ia ingin perasaannya tersampaikan.

Cecilia tersenyum lembut pada makhluk buas itu, mengatakan kepadanya bahwa tidak apa-apa sekarang, bahwa dia tidak perlu berusaha terlalu keras.



"Aku bakal ada di sisi Julis...... sepanjang waktu, sepanjang masa. Julis ngga cocok sama penampilan kaya gitu, tahu? Kalo kamu balik lagi ke Julis yang biasanya, yang konyol, yang bisa diandalin, sama yang lembut.────Aku bakal seneng banget."

“It’s time for bed, yes?” (Celes)
“Unn! Good night!” (Ark)
“Good night too.” (Celes)

 

I didn’t know what exactly came into her mind, but Celes-san came closer to me as she said that.
Then she hugged me tightly.

 

“~~~~!?” (Ark)
“Fufu, this way I can sleep with peace of mind.” (Celes)

 

I was so excited to be surrounded by her softness and nice smell. With this, I probably wouldn’t be able to sleep!

 

“…?” (Celes)

 

Suddenly Celes-san tilted her head.
And suddenly, she pulled away from me, and then she looked into my face.

 

“Layla-san… aren’t, you…?” (Celes)
“!?” (Ark)

 

I, I’ve been found out!??
