Chapter 22: I don’t Hold a Grudge so Much

Chapter 22: I don't Hold a Grudge so Much

I heard from Shizuko.

That I'm weak...

That I don't have much grudge against Zect and the others.

Surely, I'm pissed that they kicked me out of the party, but it was almost like a 'freedom' for me.

Like a heavy burden has been lifted from my shoulders.

That's all I can think.

You know, it was hard on my body when I was with them, and I was upset.

But that's about it... I don't think about revenge.

Because there are no labor laws in this world...

If someone wants to be a merchant in this world, it's hard.

If someone wants to be a craftsman, the apprenticeships are hard and poorly paid.

If someone wants to be a cook, he will have to learn to work while being yelled at.

It's that kind of world, so that was not such a big deal.

In the first place, I don't like Maria, Lida, or Mel as the opposite sex.

But can I have them?

If someone asked that question... I'm sure I can't.

My love for them is not that of a lover or a couple, but more like friendship or family.

I mean, my position is that I only babysat for them because they asked me to, and I quit when the kids I babysat for told me they didn't need me anymore.

That's all.

It might seem pitiful, but that's how I feel inside.

"Shizuko-san, I appreciate your feelings very much, but I don't have to go that far."

"Ceres-kun, aren't you upset?"

"Sure, I'm a little upset, but not until I get back at you."

"Ceres-kun is too kind, but what Zect did is not good. Think about it."

However, the more I think about it, the less I care.

I mean, it's not all bad. After all, since I'm a member of the hero party, I've got the right to be allowed to have multiple marriages.

"I've thought it over, and I don't have too much, or hardly any, hard feelings."

"Ceres, don't hesitate."

"Ceres-san, is it okay?"

"Ceres-chan... are you sure you don't mind?"

"Because, you know, don't you notice? My taste of women is like Shizuko-san, Nee-san, Misaki-san, and Sayo-san who are patient, kind, and beautiful... and none of them are in that party."

""""Ceres (kun) (san) (chan)""""

"I mean, I just kicked out of the party, that's all... I already got paid for that too... Besides, suppose I hadn't been in Zect's party. In that case, I couldn't obtain the 'multiple marriage' right, and now I'm here everyone, not just Shizuko-san."

""""Ceres (kun) (san) (chan)""""

"Although I've had some bad times, it's made me happy... isn't that good enough?"

This should be good, right?

"Ceres-kun is too kind, but even if you say so... it's important to scold a bad boy or girl."

"Ceres, even if Ceres forgives Lida, I can't forgive her."

Why are they saying that...

"Ceres-san, what Mel did was the worst thing I've ever seen... and as a mother, I'll never forgive her."

"Ceres-chan, I would never forgive Maria too."

Really... even if I forgive Zect and the other, the four mothers will never forgive them, huh?

I don't have a choice...

"If you insist, let's punish them but let me think about it."

I thought that if I didn't get involved, that would be enough... but they won't let me do that.

I'll have to think of a better way...

In the end, I asked the matter to be put on hold, and we decided to settle Misaki's and Sayo's problems first.
