The front door of the "Grand Coat 2503" opened and a man appeared from inside.

She was a grey-haired old gentleman wearing light-colored glasses.

A brown jacket is worn on top of a beige cutout, while a grey slacks and suede shoes are worn on the bottom.

The hair is rich and the spine is stretched, about the age of 90 if rounded up.

"Oh......"

The man who saw the view outside raised his voice of admiration and narrowed his eyes.

"No way, Grandpa." What about Japan for a long time? "

Sheehan continued to come out of the room and asked.

"It's a strange thing." It must be the first time I've seen it in town, but it's kind of nostalgic. ”

Shihan called him Grandpa, and Huang Lao answered with a gentle expression, turning his attention to the cityscape seen from the high-rise apartment.

After the demon king battle, Sheehan finally got a good rest and wanted to return home.

Huang Lao, who was a residual orphan, successfully stood around in the dustbin after the war and still had a strong influence on the continent.

Therefore, you can live freely and safely there, but when you return to Japan, the story will change.

In the decades after the war, Huang Lao, who survived a number of coups d 'état near the center, could be said to know the back and front of the central government.

If such a person follows Japan or Western countries, there is a risk that the world's power balance will be disrupted without a joke.

In countries where there is almost complete surveillance in major cities, you will be able to step out of the base and raise your hand.

If a person who just crosses the province is going to make a fuss, if he is going to leave the country, it will be a great uproar. If the destination is known as Japan, the more he develops into a coup d 'état without jokes, the greater Huang Lao's influence in that country will be.

In addition, the receiver was also a person who was troubled to come. Honestly, I'm sorry.

Under such circumstances, Lao Huang had given up returning home.

"If you were happy, I'd be glad."

Lastly, Yoichi, who had left the front door, called out to Old Huang.

"I didn't expect to come to Japan at this age."

Thanks to Yoichi's [Return Ω] skill, I was able to return home.

At present, Huang Lao is feeling sick and is retreating to his base.

The base has privacy, and good men will keep you out for a few days.

When it was over, I could just [return] directly to the base.

You've already set up your home points.

Yoichi, thank you so much.

Elder Huang looked back and lowered his head deeply with a strange expression.

You're welcome, and thank Sheehan, too.

It was Yoichi who did this homecoming, but it was only because Sheehan wanted it to happen.

Of course, I'm not Old Huang who doesn't let me observe that kind of thing.

After raising his head, Old Huang smiled at Sheehan.

Thank you, Sheehan.

Then Huang Lao put his hand on Sheehan's head.

"Ehehe... glad you're happy."

Sheehan narrowed his eyes in joy as he was stroked on the head by someone he could call his grandfather, someone he loved.

Yoichi was a bit happy to see her new face in a gentle expression that she didn't normally show.

○●○●

In response to Huang Lao's desire to see a little of the streets of Japan, the three of them took a leisurely walk to the nearest station.

"Old Huang, take this."

Upon arriving at the station, hand over the charged transportation IC card to Lao Huang.

The same thing was widely used on the continent, so there was no need to explain how to use it.

On the contrary, at a time when there was an explosion of tourists from the continent due to "buying and selling", there was an increase in transportation that was both accepted and ready to use that card as it was, and Huang Lao's hand-held card could be used as it was, but he did not imitate it as it was.

After travelling on the conventional line and arriving at the Shinkansen station, Yoichi bought a ticket for three people.

Can't you just ride like this?

Huang Lao asked, holding an IC card.

"I can ride in my free seat, but I thought I'd make a green car anyway."

I see.

Huang Lao nodded to Yang Yi's answer, putting the IC card in his pocket.

Not so long ago, a three-man Shinkansen departed.

What do you say, Shinkansen?

Yoichi asks Old Huang, who enjoys the view flowing through the car window and the station door.

"What, the high-speed rail is not losing to Japan?"

Huang Lao, who said so with a proud expression, pinched the sashimi from the station door and raised it in front of him.

But there might not be a shop that sells lunches with such delicious saki.

When he said that, he threw the singing into Pari's mouth.

A few hours later, the three of them took a taxi and a train to visit a town in Hokuriku.

Yoichi, Huang Lao, and Sheehan get out of the taxi and walk along the hill's small diameter of about 10 minutes.

Yoichi walked ahead, and Old Huang followed. Sheehan served at the end.

It was obvious that Yoichi and Sheehan hadn't cut off a single breath, but they weren't tired of old Huang walking in the middle.

My cheeks were slightly upbeat and I was sweating on my forehead, but my breath was not rising.

"Grandpa, are you okay?"

“Yeah, thanks to you, it's no problem.”

Huang Lao replied to the voice called from his back, looking back lightly as he walked.

"Yeah, she looks fine, more than anything."

Sheehan smiled happily at the appearance of Old Huang.

"Fufufu... how are you? That's right, you've become quite healthy."

Old Huang muttered to himself in mockery.

What's wrong, Grandpa?

"No, I didn't have any illnesses, I meant health itself." When I got so well, I realized that my age was causing a lot of rattling. "

But you're doing well right now, right?

As Sheehan asked, Huang Lao raised his arms energetically as he walked.

"Yeah, that's right."

Huang Lao looked forward and looked at Yang Yi's back.

This is also thanks to Yoichi.

Yoichi looked back lightly at the words and raised the edge of his mouth lightly.

What? It's the goddess' way of thinking.

Elder Huang did not participate directly in the war in the other world.

But with the food he provided, the human army was saved.

It is of paramount importance for the army not to be bothered by hunger.

The army's morale was maintained by the abundance of food, which kept the front stable.

It was a war that involved a large number of soldiers over a wide area, although it was short-lived.

Without the help of Elder Huang and even a few anxiety about the station, the number of casualties would have changed in the hundreds of thousands.

Even if he was not in another world, the administrator decided that he could not ignore his achievements, and promised to give him skills.

And he also had Sheehan's wishes, and he mastered [healthy body].

"Oh, of course I know." That's why I haven't missed a goddess's prayer since that day. "

"Yes? The Statue of Goddess...?"

In response to Huang Lao's words, Yoichi unexpectedly stopped his legs.

"That's how the goddess came to me that day."

Huang Lao showed Yang Yi the monitor of the smartphone that he gave out from his pocket.

A black-haired woman wearing a rattan kimono is projected there.

"... no, it's a figure called a goddess statue, isn't it?"

It was nicely colored on the monitor, and it looked like it could be used in a hobby shop.

”Fufu, our stylists are doing well, aren't they?”

"Hahaha..."

Yoichi smiled at Old Huang, who was bragging and winking.

However, the level of completion remained unchanged.

There is a slight sense of discomfort in the expression with a smile full of compassion, but it is expected that she will be dressed because of her.

"Fufufu"

When I thought about it, my smile spilled out unexpectedly.

Whoa, whoa! Don't look at me!! ”

Suddenly, the appearance of an administrator fluttering in a hurry comes to mind.

Next time I see you, I'll make fun of you.

"Hey, I can't take it anymore."

Sheehan muttered as he glanced into the screen.

The members of the Tokoroten have not been rewarded with any skills, but the Administrator has appeared before them once after the end of the war and paid his respects directly to them.

That's why Sheehan knew who the supervisor was.

"But that's it." If I make it into a figure, I'll make it into a big tit already!? "

Suddenly, Sheehan felt the temperature drop a few degrees.

"... what are you two doing?" What did you do? "

When he raised his face, Huang Lao and Yang Yi sent a cold gaze to him, and Sheehan felt something cold on his spine.

Could it be that Old Huang, who had spent most of his life with him, had once had such a cold look on his face?

Even from Yoichi, even when he was hostile at first, he had never been able to get such a gaze.

"Sheehan, that's not true. It's beautiful to have it as it is."

"That's right, it's not all I need to serve."

Apparently, I've made a terrible mistake.

"Um, I'm sorry... what the hell... I did it recklessly..."

When she said that, the tense air relaxed.

The two men also loosened their faces.

It's okay, everyone has a mistake.

"Oh, I just need to know, I just need to know."

The two of them looked terribly calm.

"Nevertheless....."

Huang Lao put his smartphone in his pocket and turned to Yang Yi.

"I'm glad Yoichi is the man who understands the story."

Then, Huang Lao said so and offered his hand.

No, we're here.

While returning it, Yoichi grabbed his hand back.

(... what are you showing me?)

Sheehan sighed unexpectedly in front of the two of them, shaking hands tightly.
