My Skills Are Too Strong to Be a Heroine

Holidays of Saints ② Lunchtime

Eating after a big job is exceptional. It's too late to eat for a large group.

Back from the field, we washed our hands, and nobody cheered when we saw the au gratin that Elysica had prepared for us. My sight and smell felt like I was dancing a line dance with great joy, and I smiled when I suppressed both cheeks.

"Uh-huh, mellow cheese... Erysica, do you want a refill?

I've added the knight's share, so I don't have it.

………………

"Ludo, should I not have been born...?

"I feel like I'm being seen with such amazing eyes, but that's not true, let's live strong, Master Gustave."

Gu... I can't help it. Thanks to both of you, I finished my field work a long time ago. But thinking that there would be no next time, he sat at a table in a circle, his hands united and his voice aligned.

"All right, everybody, let's go."

"" "" I'll take it!

Take care of your burns and put them in your mouth to keep everyone's eyes peeled! And shined. Yeah, yeah, I knew Elysica was a great cook!

Mr Gustav was impressed by this too, and he was biting with a good taste. Mr. Ludlake chews and swallows one after another whether the sucking is tough or not. Isn't it hot... I envy you...

"Surprised. It's delicious, it tastes shameless even when served in King's Landing."

"Fufufu, it's not bad to go left to the countryside."

"Who's left!?

Ludrake giggles unusually to Güsta, who grips the spoon and is angry. The face was so cute that I dropped the shrimp stuff on the bowl without thinking.

"... at all. It's a cloud in my eyes to think of such a talented weather child as a demon."

"Oh, yeah, that's it. What does the demon race look like? Is it different from a beast?

When she chewed the au gratin and questioned it, Güsta roared with a difficult face.

"... actually, very little is known about the demons. That said, all the people who encountered the Demons have been killed.

The only defining characteristics are that they look the same as people, that they are uniformly wrapped in black clothing, and that - without exception - they are cruel and possess a supernatural ability to deceive people. "

While swinging the spoon gently like a baton, Güsta adds with one eye closed.

"The only demonic tribe whose name is officially recorded is that of a woman commonly known as" Maria the Beastmaker. "

According to testimonies, he has the ability to freely manipulate the Demon Beast, and with that magic, he even gave the Demon Beast semi-extinct traits - well, the Demon tribes may spontaneously completely look down on humans and recognize no enemies, so I think it's rare for them to fight directly unless they go to the front lines of King's Landing. "

Hmm... I think this conversation feels like some kind of flag, so I gathered the macaroni and welcomed it into my mouth. Delicious, delicious.

And when the rougher was empty, Erysica rushed into the cafeteria.

"I'm sorry I'm eating! Sinya, can I ask you to help me when I'm done eating? I'd like to move the shelf, but my father hurt my back yesterday...."

Takao stood up with a smile as he wiped his mouth against the melting Erysica.

"Yeah, that's fine. I'm feeling a little hungry."

It's hard work. I'll help you too. "

Elysica shook her arm slightly to Güsta, who continued to stand up.

"No, don't do that to the knight!

"No, I'm off duty today so there's no need to say anything else. Thanks to you, I had a valuable experience and a delicious au gratin. [M] Let me thank you."

Gusta smiled and said that, and still looked like a prince, and Elisica nodded, "Bye, bye."

Three people went upstairs, and me and Mr. Ludlake were picking the rest of the au gratin and bread.

... hey, I'm a little nervous... After all, the fear of slicing the skin of the neck face-to-face has not yet been wiped off.

You know how strong I am, Mr Ludlake said calmly with a bitter smile.

"That was a joke. The thin sword is a weapon that specializes in poking, so it's not suitable for peeling."

"... ah, that's right!

"If you want to peel it off, use a special device."

"What is a dedicated device!?

The experienced person was a rhetorical person....!

Half weeping and a little distance apart, she told me that she no longer knew whether it was true or not, "I'm kidding."

"That's because I decided that it was best for Shinya-kun to pull out his sword. It was just a threat, but I'm sorry I scared you."

"Ah, no...."

You're a strong soldier after all, no, the Knights are separate from the army? What a sip of soup.

"But, Sinya-kun's strengths were shown, but Aria didn't show her strengths after all."

Mr Ludrake's words quickly caught my mind.

Ahahah, I'm trying to deceive you with a dry laugh, but I'm afraid to ask.

"Ah, my power...?

"Records were kept at vigilante headquarters. I read the investigation into the extermination of villains under the authority of the Knights... and I was surprised to see both Gustave and myself."

Looking down at the empty platter, Ludrake said indifferently.

"The ability to drive at incredible speeds and lift a man close to twice his weight. Speaking of bad words, that's it, but the testimony of the victim, Miss Elysica, is exactly the same. If that's all, it may not be the impossible range for humans... but with all due respect, your body is that of an ordinary girl. I don't think they have that kind of physical ability."

I couldn't help but hold my breath with my icy eyes... but there's only one thing I can tell you.

"Don't tell Takao."

As surprised as he was, Mr. Ludlake opened his eyes rarely. And he stares at me a little bit like a daze.

"It won't last long."

"Uhh... I know, but just a little bit more..."

As she chewed her lips tightly, she sighed, "It's okay," she said.

"... I'm grateful to you. Master Gustave died when we decided to send him here, but he's been alive lately."

"Has Ludrake had a long relationship with Mr. Gustav?

"Yeah, pretty much.

That's where his talents are, but he managed to graduate chief of knighthood school. But I was smoking because I was away from the front line due to some circumstances... thank you. Because there is no more wasteful job to pay for than your boss's foolishness. "

She smiled gracefully when she heard her long hair in one room.

"I like it, it feels like a relationship of trust...."

"To trust each other, it's to face each other without lying."

Mr. Ludrake's words weighed heavily on my heart.

But I'm sure the day will come when we'll be ready. As I raised my face to the sound of the floor echoing from the second floor, I thought of the end of the love that would come from far away.
