Return of the Former Hero

Since there is no particular reason to hurry, and rather, there is my inclination of putting off the problem, we stopped to do the usual training for about 3 hours in the morning.

It has only been a day since we left the Imperial Capital.

Although it’s not necessary yet, Mina maintains and cleans Clato.

Mina is a non-combatant.

As expected, she is not a maid who fights.

I heave a sigh of relief because doing that much, and if she is strong too, it might cause me to feel that it would be good with just Mina alone.

However, that’s not going to happen with Rithina.

Was it called royal palace fencing?

She is a fairly skilled person. 𝒇𝚛e𝘦wℯ𝑏𝓃𝑜νℯ𝒍.co𝗺

Although even if she turns up occasionally at the training of Leon’s group and practice together, there might still be a gap if one considers the events happening in the outside world.

Well, since it’s done for the image of princess-sama though, it’s to that extent.

It isn’t different from an ordinary soldier around here.

When surrounded by multiple people, I think she wouldn’t be able to do anything.

Therefore, together with such a Rithina, I think it’s necessary to strengthen my body well to be able to protect her by myself.

I believe that Rithina’s magical power is high due to the curse she was born with.

Magical body strengthening similar to the time with Sharon, and if she moves around and mix in magic skillfully like Laurier, even if she cannot be called first-class, wouldn’t she become a powerful person in her own ways?

It’s a fighting princess knight.

Princess knight.

It’s a good sound.

By attaching the meaning of princess, she surpassed Aura.

……If Aura is surpassed by such a thing, her face would be lost.

I mean, if it’s a girl, would even a princess knight be good?

Well, it’s fine.

Although I decided to borrow Laurier’s powers again regarding body strengthening, it seems that she wasn’t able to get the knack for it well.

Sharon’s talent for this aspect was amazing.

If learning it in a day was the norm, there would not be a place for my existence.

Hmmmm……that’s right.

“Okay, I’ve decided.

Sharon. You will be Rithina’s master.

Sharon holds the responsibility to try and teach Rithina body strengthening and movement.

I propose.

“Eeeh!? I, I’m the master!?”

Sharon raises a wild voice.

She probably did not expect it at all.

Since I just thought of it too.

“That’s right. If you are going to teach someone, you would try and explain it clearly, right?

That being the case, if you do not think properly, you wouldn’t be able to teach others.

Think about it and have a go as this is for your own sake too.”

I say it like this somehow.

“I, I see!”

Sharon believes easily.

Sharon is truly honest.

Be careful to not get deceived by bad people.

“Well, though I had hope to speak with Haruto-kun attentively…….”

Rithina who became silent on hearing that raises an objection.

Attentively……

It’s good.

Should I do it after all?

No no, I am patient here.

What patience am I talking about?

“Magic will be taught later from me.”

“Is that so. I understand.”

Rithina agreed readily.

Really readily.

Is it that?

Considering the work of negotiation, is she throwing in an objection even if it’s something inconsequential?

But I do not understand it well.

Anyway, apart from doing it in a pair for a while after this, now it’s Laurier.

When this fellow is left alone, she skips out immediately.

In fact, she is sticking to my back sluggishly now too.

Since she was thoughtlessly strong from the start, or should I say that her greedy nature was lacking, she is a fellow who doesn’t move if there is no bait.

And, speaking of bait at the time of practice, it’s fighting me who is stronger than her.

However, it’s tiring doing it with this fellow.

Convinced that I am stronger than her, was it because she thought I won’t die? Or rather, she doesn’t go easy on me and comes at me with full power.

It’s possible to lead her around by the nose sufficiently if magic was prohibited, and I am able to have the margin to sexually harass her, but when there is magic, it becomes quite a mortal combat.

Fortunately, Mina is able to use simple recovery magic.

If it’s to the degree of some abrasion and cut now, although we can continue the journey without difficulty……

That’s right.

The next girl that I get along with……if I make her my companion, an expert of recovery magic would be good.

It’s a problem without a healer in the party.

Well, let’s think about that gradually.

“Okay. Then Laurier will still be doing a mock battle with me?”

“Oo! I have been waiting!

Today, I will beat you hollow for sure!”

Laurier who was sticking to my back jumps down excitedly.

“There will be no magic today.”

“eeh?……!

Shall we do it with magic! Let’s do so!”

Laurier says it like she hit upon a really good idea.

Because it differs completely.

I would have to say no?

“Don’t do it if you dislike it.”

“Muu! I understand. It’s fine without it!”

Laurier obeys reluctantly.

This fellow is really a combat maniac.

For now, she’s a child that wants to fight.

Well, even for me, I’m thankful because it’s good practice fighting a mock battle with a demon race of Laurier’s class.

And while spending the morning like this, it became afternoon.

“Everyone. As lunch is ready, please round up around there.”

With Mina’s shout, it marks the end of today’s training.

Lunch was prepared for everyone on a table prepared outside.

Although we never surround the same dining table when I was in the mansion, having been persuaded by Rithina, Sharon and me, Mina is eating at the same table too.

Uh huh. It’s good to eat the meal with everyone after all. 𝗳𝘳𝒆𝘦𝑤𝐞𝚋𝗻𝚘𝘷𝘦𝙡.𝑐𝐨𝘮

It’s the feeling of a family!

All the members are my wife.

Wife…..

Fu, Fufufu…….

“Haruto, don’t make such a face during meal time.”

Sharon tells me off.

Damn.

Although it hasn’t been said recently…….

No, it wasn’t said that it’s disgusting.

I’m safe.

What is?

Everyone clears up after finishing lunch.

Although Mina said that she will do it alone, there is no way for us to leave everything to her.

Because we are a party now, there isn’t mankind, demon race, beastman, nor princess here.

The clearing up was done by everyone.

This is my unwritten law.

After lunch, it’s traveling.

Nothing but moving.

As only Mina learned the method of operating Clato, driving was left to her.

We decided to learn how to operate Clato together this afternoon as we cannot afford to make her do it all the time from now on.

Even if that was said, it isn’t something so complicated.

It was passed while asking teacher Clato in that situation.

The operation may be taken over in shifts from tomorrow onward too.

With such a feeling, we advance along the road towards the territory of Cordato marquis.
