36 – The hero was TS (5)

time is dawn.

In the dark hallway stood a woman with neck-length blue hair and red eyes.

Her appearance was pitiful, more like a girl than a woman.

As soon as she closed the door, Lindsay gasped for breath.

Even though he squeezed his chest tightly and tried to suppress it, his heartbeat did not slow down.

Barely moving away from the visit, she murmured.

“… Heck, what the heck is this… ?

Strange… .”

The front of her eyes had been shaking from earlier.

By symptoms she herself could not understand.

Strangely, when I was with the man in that room, my chest was beating and my eyes were out of focus.

I made an excuse to use the bathroom in a hurry and came out,

Still, the symptoms, far from disappearing, remained and only bothered Lindsay.

Like this, from yesterday, she was full of unknown things.

Including the purple letters reflected in her eyes now.

[…] It was a good scene, but it’s a pity.]

“… What the hell is this… ?

Have I really gone crazy, I… ”

Lindsay muttered that in a dying voice.

She was the only one left in the hallway of the inn where the lights went out.

The only thing shining on her now was the morning moonlight streaming in from the small window at the end of the hallway.

Even so, the purple letters ominously invade her watch…

Even when she turned her head, it continued to follow her eyes and was drawn in the air.

[…] you’re not crazy Cute warrior Lindsay.

You are my beloved priest.

It is also I who gave you a noble female body that is blessed by you and loved by everyone.]

Lindsay couldn’t understand the writing in front of her eyes for a while.

The prank that completely changed her life overnight,

It was a harsh fact to her that it was an act planned by someone whose form was unknown.

Lindsay, who was dazed for a moment as if she had been hit in the head with a hammer after reading the text that came to mind,

Within… muttered helplessly.

“… So, what do you want from me… ”

As if responding to her words, the writing disappeared in front of her eyes for a moment and was invisible,

Soon, new letters began to be drawn in the air again.

[Well, I don’t want anything.

I just watch you adjust to your new destiny.

then… Let’s meet again in the distant future.]

With those words, the letters that filled Lindsay’s eyes disappeared like lies.

All that was left was the faint moonlight and darkness.

And there was only the sound of her own heartbeat that hadn’t subsided.

Lindsay staggered for a moment and nearly collapsed, but managed to keep her balance and stand up.

A little dizzy from the incident, she put her hand over her forehead.

“… Ahh,

Was that person just a devil or a god?

is it a dream? Is this a joke? is it a nightmare? This…

I want to believe that everything is a dream… ”

Lindsay muttered half-mad, with a staggering gait,

I walked towards the room where the other colleagues were staying.

‘I’m sure I thought meeting Caiman would make my heart feel better… ‘

Apparently, for a moment, she felt that way.

Hearing that Caiman also thinks of himself as his only precious friend,

She was so relieved.

Despite the promised honor of being a member of the warrior’s party, Caiman, and the fact that Lindsay, not him, was chosen as the hero,

He didn’t seem to mind at all that Lindsay had been severely ostracized by the whole town.

Always work hard on your task, no… More than that, she is a reliable friend of hers.

And I always thought of her as a kind friend who was always warm to her.

So at that time, Lindsay was obviously relieved by Caiman’s words.

I almost felt the emotion.

But at the same time, I felt a strange sensation from within, as if my heart was going to break.

So I couldn’t stand it.

I had no choice but to run away.

Lindsay had a hunch that she wouldn’t be able to enter that room again now.

I have a feeling that I won’t be able to remain in the same relationship as before…

Afraid of that, Lindsay ran away.

In the room she would return to from now on, there were her precious companions.

Even the woman who thought she wanted to protect her life.

It was the love of a child, and at the same time pride,

He was a life goal that Lindsay could not abandon, a person he admired,

At the same time, he was also the person Lindsay had to protect.

Lindsay wanted to show the light to her who lost all meaning in her life due to an incident in her childhood.

The light of the world that will surely be beautiful and brilliant.

I believed that if I was alive, one day I would surely be grateful for being alive.

but… sudden natural disasters,

Like a tsunami or flood, everything turned upside down and collapsed…

For now, it was Lindsay.

She now doesn’t know how to deal with everything around her.

So Lindsay walked like a doll whose thread had been cut.

with heavy steps.

… And, there was a human shadow in front of the door.

A small woman with a voluptuous silhouette.

She was a striking beauty with voluminous hair that fell to her waist.

“… Where did you go at dawn like this, warrior… ?”

“Stop, saintess… ?”

As I walked with my head down in the thoughts that filled my head, and because time is time…

Lindsay didn’t even notice that Saint Seria was standing still in front of the door.

“… Now, I went to the bathroom for a second… Are you awake?”

“no. I just woke up and he wasn’t there… I was worried.

Then let’s go into the room together♪”

“yes? yes… ”

Rinze was surprised and did not hold Seria’s outstretched hand.

Still looking hesitant.

It was a reaction as if he had not yet gotten used to his situation at all.

Of course, Lindsay had no choice but to do so, but the saintess had other thoughts at that time.

***

Uhm…

The warrior’s face is obviously cute.

to the point of envy

It’s to the point where I wonder if the Goddess has come down to this earth.

Everything the hero says right now feels like a revelation from the goddess.

… But what?

What the hero said just now is a lie.

I’m a liar, so I can tell lies easily.

The fact that the hero who had become a woman in the first place secretly went to the porter-sama’s room on cat’s feet without anyone knowing,

Actually, it’s been a long time since I heard about it through Rachel.

… Hmm, what can I do?

The relationship between the changed hero and the porter is getting closer…

It doesn’t seem to be the flow I want.

***

In the end, I couldn’t sleep because I was caught up in useless thoughts and delusions.

The fortunate thing is that I also train following the princess and Lindsay from early in the morning.

If you woke up a little too early, you should correct it in your brain.

“Did you get it?”

Pelicana sits and runs around without getting tired of it.

“I go to the gym. Pelicana. Would you like to watch too?”

“Pump min!”

Pelicana chased after flapping its tiny wings.

He is a guy who never gets tired of watching.

And I don’t know why, but I don’t feel very tired even though I haven’t slept much.

Rather, I would say it is refreshing and brisk.

After lightly washing myself with cold water, I went out into the clearing in front of the inn in light clothes.

Even though it’s early morning when the sun just started to rise,

It is rare to see people from diligent farming families already on the move.

And, there was Lindsay not far away.

Lindsay holding the holy sword, as if not noticing me, was standing still and holding a straight posture.

I hesitantly greeted Lindsay.

Something, it’s hard to see Lindsay as comfortably as before…

“Oh, hello. Lindsay.”

“… Hello Caiman.”

Lindsay answered without changing her posture.

“hmm. if… What are you doing now?”

“… Yes. The feeling of the posture has changed… ”

It was Lindsay, who was slowly concentrating on her swordsmanship posture.

It’s to the point where I’m sorry to keep talking.

It’s still a flawless and beautiful posture in my opinion.

“You are diligent.”

A lively voice came from behind me.

“ah, … Miss Lisa.”

Very naturally, I almost called her the princess.

“Did you sleep well? Caiman.”

“Ah, looks like you slept well.”

The princess greeted me and smiled brightly,

I looked at Lindsay, who was still standing.

“… You really never take a single day off.

Even though you’ve been through that, Lindsay.”

“… No matter what happens, the fact that I am a hero will not change.”

While holding a posture that still felt sharp, Lindsay’s eyes as if they were burning softly,

I could feel the strong will.

“excellent. First of all, let’s try to remove the power lightly. I don’t know how you would have changed… ”

Saying that, the princess held the wooden sword she was holding with both hands and took a posture.

It’s a posture that doesn’t put any energy into it, and it looks like it’s light and airy,

Anyone watching her or interacting with her could subconsciously feel that there was no gap in her posture.

“… All right.”

The two bowed their heads,

Soon they ran into each other.
