Return of the Former Hero Chapter 17

17. Former hero・senses a response   

I set out for Sharon’s morning training.

Seems like Laurier wants to come along too.
Because things seem to become complicated when she comes, I do appreciate her following me everywhere but……

“Since I gave you pocket money, can you go off and eat something?
Stamina is needed to heal injuries right?”

“Nn〜. “Though it’s an attractive proposition, it’s fine this time.
I’m also interested in your coaching too.
Especially, I’m bothered by completely chant-less magic.”

Is that so?

By the way, Lauier who hasn’t been exposed for running away after eating has been leading a very good life up till now,
I advise her not to live while doing such tings from now on.
Instead, I decided to give her an allowance.

It’s 5000 cols per month for now.

For someone aiming for a harem, the girls must be supported somehow.
……I have to work dependably.
No, I’ll make this fellow work seriously too.

At the first floor cafeteria, I gave my greetings to old man of the inn.
That’s right, I have to say it in advance.

“Uncle, Just various things for a while. As the door of my room broke, can you repair it?
Please bill me the cost later.”

“N? Ah, the door at Haru-hou’s place? (Familiar way of calling Haruto)
If so, didn’t Sharon-chan say the same thing a while ago?
Although she said she broke it, what did you do?”

Did Sharon properly try to compensate for what was destroyed by herself?
She’s a good kid.

“Err…, Well, something small.”

“No, don’t say it to everyone. I am a man too. I understand! Understood!”

Uncle says that while his sight flickered to Laurier behind me.
Because nothing was wrong, I cannot refute.
I have yet to do them both however.

“Rather than my stuff too, is it okay to say such a thing? Look, behind.”

“Eh!? …..Mo, mother-chan! W, Wait, I such intention particularly-”

“Then, we’re going. Please repair the door.”

“I’m off!”

Leaving uncle who started making an excuse to aunt, we left the inn.

“Hey, Haruto. Is that the thing called a pair in the human world?”

Laurier asked on the way.

That?
That, meaning the matter of the uncle in the inn?

“Aa, that’s right.”

I answer.
However, a pair. (TN: A mating pair)
Laurier lived in the wild huh.

“I also want you to can’t help but feel nervous that way!”

“It doesn’t have to become like that. That is not my preference.”

For me, an obedient, cute type is my preference.
Although I like those elderly too, it’s better with someone who fawns on me.
As for the dominating ones, please excuse me.

“What, is that no good?”

Laurier becomes dejected.
No way, cute.

“……you are you and that’s enough.”

“……Is that so! It’s okay to be so!
HAAHAHAHAHAHA!”

Expression brightening with a poof, Laurier recovers
No way, noisy.

In the meantime, we arrived at the sports park.

Sharon turned her sight to me who came along with Laurier and gave a stare.
But, well, let’s a.s.sume it’s approval as malice is not felt very much in those sight.

And, I wonder if it’s no good to think of the situation as nice?

“OK, then let’s begin today too.
Laurier. I do not mind that you look from the side,
but this is after all a request from Sharon.
I get money doing it too.
Therefore, as I’m not looking after you, behave yourself.”

“Yea. I’m aware of that.”

“Ok. Then, let’s start Sharon.”

“Yes! Master!”

Sharon greets me energetically.
She shifted to disciple mode properly.

Afterwards, we conducted a mock battle as usual.
Was Sharon inspired by looking at my fight yesterday? She is full of enthusiasm.
In no way do I want to think that its because she was angry at me s.e.xually hara.s.sing Laurier this morning.

Laurier is obediently observing and learning.
Occasionally, ‘uh-huh’ and among other things,  ‘I see’, will be uttered.
This fellow also has a feeling of being fairly muscle brained, so it likely to serve as a reference as she fights with her full power.

And during the latter half, we moved to practicing magical strengthening.

I shall be a little prudent for s.e.xual hara.s.sment towards Sharon today.

Sharon is as usual, although she is bad when one speaks of it,
it’s when she is having a hard fight with magic strengthening.

“Hey, Haruto and Sharon. Can I get a minute?”

“What is it?”

“Haaa, Haaa…… W, What?”

Laurier speaks.
Since we have been moving all the time, I decided to respond to the talk previously while using it as a small break.

“Sharon have been attempting strengthening with magical power since a while ago right?”

“Well……That’s so.”

What is it?
But my teaching methods are bad?
That’s quite so.
I’m sorry, Sharon.

“……No matter what, I can’t grasp the image master says……”

Sharon answers with a timid feel.
Although we’ve practice throughout, there isn’t able to be any progress at all.
I’m really sorry.

“Yea. I have an idea if imagining it isn’t possible you know?”

Hou.
That is very interesting.

“R, Really!? W, What kind of idea? err…..Ms, Laurier.”

Sharon asks.
Or rather, thinking properly, is this the first proper conversation between those 2?
For Sharon who is always lively and not bashful in front of strangers, she is hesitant.

I wonder if that’s because it’s a conversation about the part where training isn’t going smoothly?
Although I do not know what idea Laurier has, but I’m glad if she gets along well with this opportunity. In various ways.

“Just Laurier is fine. It seems like you are Haruto’s woman too? Isn’t it the same relationship as me?”

My woman!

What a sweet sound.

“Fuee!? Eee!? No, Nonono,. I, not yet, that sort of……! Ah, it’s a different meaning, not yet or such things!”

It’s a manner of tremendous discomposure.
Not yet, huh, Not yet.
Fuhihi.

“!!…Ha, Haruto!… no! Master! The gross face is no good!”

She got angry.
Do I have such a gross face?

“HAHAHAHA! It’s good, it’s good!
Because my body became Haruto’s property, I understand Haruto’s preference.
What to do about if he cannot be surrounded by 5 or 10 woman?”

10 people!?
UWaa, it’s Shangri-la.

and, 1 day have not even pa.s.sed since I met you.
Such a thing as understanding my preference, didn’t you just talk about that married couple of the inn just now?

Sharon’s face became bright red.

“Th, That, Master is an ecchi, so that much isn’t strange but……1, 10 people such a thing like that, if it’s so much, I can’t work hard…”

She mumbles with a bright red face.
Although it’s a level that cannot be caught, I heard it properly.
What do you mean by work hard?

I mean, Seriously!
Go for this, Mr.Haruto!

Uha, the tension is rising.

“Nn〜… Mou! Now is not the time for such talk!
Laurier-chan! What is the idea!?”

Sharon seemed to have forcibly interrupted her thoughts.

That’s right, it’s not time for such talk now.
But it was a very significant talk.
And, did you change the way of addressing to -chan?

“HAHAAHAHA! There is love for this guy!
Well, it’s good. The talk certainly deviated.
……As for the idea.
If you cannot imagine the feeling of magic strengthening, what do you say about having a personal experience once?

Wow.
I think she said something that makes sense relatively.
However,

“Even if you say experience it, in the first place she has trouble imagining it, how can she experience it?”

Sharon nods with a [koku koku] at the side to my question.

“Fufun. Of course, I have a plan.”

Feeling proud all over her face, a smug expression is worn.
I feel irritated at being treated like a fool.
Sharon doesn’t have a narrow thinking of such looks,
and have an expression of expectation, of ‘How on earth!?’ on her face.

“I’ll send my magic in and strengthen Sharon’s physical ability!”

Haー! I see.
Come to think of it, this fellow gave magic to the goblin which died and made it a monster.
It feels like a supporting magic.

“Eh? Eh? Can such a thing be don? Laurier-chan?”

“I can do it!”

Full of confidence.

“I didn’t think of that idea.
However, wait a second. Like that time with the goblin, won’t you just send magical power like a fool?”

“Do you think I’m stupid?
I understand such a thing.”

Ugh.
Laurier is a little angry.

“Ah, my bad. That was my fault. I didn’t have such an intention.”

I’ll apologize here obediently.

“Goblin? What’s the matter?”

Come to think of it, I had not spoken to Sharon yet.

“N. No, I’ll talk about it later.
Apart from that, the lesson on magical strengthening is the point now.
Well then, Laurier, can I ask that of you?
Sharon is OK too?”

I obtain the confirmation from the 2 person.

“Yea. Leave it to me!”

“Y, Yes! Please treat me well! Laurier-chan!”

In this way, the special training began.
