The Former Hero Wants To Lead An Ordinary Life

169. The Brave explains the circumstances 2

(Ter! Please, just shut up!

I appealed to the demon king behind me in the hope that piercing communications would be reconnectable.

"Why?

Fortunately I got back to you as soon as I could. Apparently, Pierce Communications has also been successfully restarted.

'What just happened, I don't want anyone to talk to me. I want to keep it a secret from you and me. "

'... I see. Just the two of us. "

It's awkward when you say that, but for now, if you can block the dangerous mouth of the Demon King, that's fine. I forgot to inadvertently keep my mouth shut. It's my fault.

"- Sho? What do you mean, proof?

"No... so, you see, you jumped into the ocean trying to help me, right? Hey, Ter?

Yes, while returning it to my brother, I tell the Demon King in piercing correspondence, 'Talk to each other'.

But the Demon King decided to take a dump, and turned to the pussy.

They don't want to talk to each other, but my will to shut up seems to creep me out, and then I shut my mouth like a shellfish.

Even if I was in a bad mood, I would have appreciated that now.

"Trying to help...? Did you even practice swimming in the ocean in the morning and drown? I'm sure you were drowning when you were orienteering... but, yeah, you've been working hard since this season. That effort will come true sooner or later."

No, so, Princess, don't make up your mind and run.

And because I'm not Kanazchi. Because that's also a misunderstanding.

"My brother is a master swimmer.... Probably did something unscrupulous then too. This is true for this one, but I want you to learn to think and act a little more. And I hope I can revisit the fact that I'm too confident in my power."

My brother spoke for me in my heart. But it even followed an extra sermon. Besides, the sermon part is many times longer, and it hurts my ears just because it's a star.

"Still..."

My brother just loosened the tone a little and continued.

"Looks like you've finally remembered to rely on me... so maybe it's improved somewhat..."

I'm guessing you're referring to the fact that I entrusted it to the white crow this time to inform him of the crisis. That's true, but when it comes out in my mouth, I feel it on my face.

"... I'm first"

I heard claims from behind that didn't sound.

... So why are you hanging out with your brother anyway?

"So if it wasn't a coincidence or a drowning, how did you end up here?

The princess's question is best, and this time my brother explains it, not me.

The look on the face of the princess listening gradually became more and more rude.

For those of us with memories of previous life, the phenomenon of demonization was not something that could be denied as unrealistic without a headache.

"If it's really the guild, it's something you can't throw away."

We need to figure out who and in what way transformed the quail for what purpose.

We didn't have to put it into words. Our perceptions were consistent. While doing so, a rope ladder arrived on the cliff, and me and the Demon King finally made their way out of the cave.

* * *

Climb up the rope ladder and get your head out of the crack in the cave.

Surprisingly, there were more humans waiting on the cliff than we thought, and they were hitting our rescue.

There were the Knights and thoughtful students with sword bands on their hips and the adults of the school staff in work and nursing clothes.

Me and the Demon King, up off the cliff, are immediately briefly questioned by medical staff and hung with a thin blanket.

Apparently it was the school staff who set up the rope ladder, and they handily finished collecting it when we got up off the cliff, prompting me and the Demon King to accompany us to the school headquarters because they wanted to hear more about it.

In contrast, my brother answers in between before I respond.

"Okay. But before you do, can I go back and get dressed?... my brother will catch a cold in the outfit as it is"

But the brother's proposal was unacceptable.

They told me we'd get dressed here, and we had no choice but to follow the instructions of the school staff half naked. Before I was helped, there were times when I wasn't in a position to say very strongly, but it wasn't an atmosphere where I could say no.

School starts a long time ago, so we were able to return to the dorm without exposing our students to strange gaze.

It's just that the staff took me to a dorm facility, but it was my first place to step in.

I thought they were going to take me to the office behind the counter in the lobby exactly, or around the dorm ward room where the dorm warden is waiting, but not the front door. I go into the dorm to avoid people from the staff entrance and exit behind me, and I go down the stairs to the basement where we've never used them.

I had a bad feeling about it.

I don't have a very good impression of the "basement" of the school.

There's some tension in our brother's face.

I would have been glad it was just me and the Demon King, but that happened after my brother offered to escort me and imitated the princess and the guardian knight as well. I am separated from other Knights students who the school staff told me to go to class before returning to the dorm.

Now, it's not the school staff who were coming to rescue us, it's the school staff in the cream-colored uniform we see all the time. However, the uniform design was slightly different from that of the staff who often looked at each other at the counter. The conductor's chest had a silver emblem in the shape of a cross. It is also designed to evoke the sword at any rate.

We went down the stairs just for the first floor and the hallway stretched out to the front and left.

The staircase to the basement was still going on, but we were led down the hallway on our left by the school staff.

There seems to be an underground at least up to the third floor.

Of course I don't know what floor the actual bottom floor is.

(... I guess the basement and central wing of the guild are connected somewhere after all)

The anticipation I also thought about when I lost sight of the Demon King before turns to certainty.

It was like a maze over there, and it was hard to figure out what floor I was on right now.

But, unlike the basement aisle of the guild, where we are now, the floor was an open concrete wall, which is not so different from the interior of the central building of the dorm, and I couldn't find anything particularly suspicious. But I was cautiously peering around because of the unusual things that happened to me when I kept standing up.

"You didn't know there was an underground in the central wing of the dorm."

The school staff replied to the whining the princess mouthed as she walked down the hallway.

"It's a floor reserved for staff, because we usually prohibit students from entering. - Get dressed in this room."

A little further down the hall, in front of one door, the conductor stopped his leg and opened the room using a card key.

Along the way, there were several other doors, but there were no small windows or anything like that on every door that allowed me to see what was going on inside, and I could not speculate on what use this floor was used for. On the contrary, there is no such thing as a different person walking down the corridor, and the area is quiet.

"What is this place?

Inside that room, peering through the open door, the interior was very similar in size to the dorm room I usually live in.

The difference is that there are no windows and there are bunk beds on both walls of the room.

"It's the staff's dormant room. There is also a bathroom so use it when changing clothes. The change of clothes should already be available for sanitary use. It's the same type of room next door, so one of you will be guided there."

I almost got separated from the Demon King. I panicked, that's lame.

It's too dangerous to leave the Demon King alone in this mentz.

Anyway, it's a stomachache situation where some of the people who participated in the Demon King crusade in their previous lives are somehow confused by the person who was their guest enemy. I can't leave the Demon King on my own, considering that on the day I was put out of business without me...

"No, you can have the same place to get dressed. I don't even have to bother using another room. It's a waste of time, so I can come in with you and keep you company.... That's all right, right? Terre."

At the end of the day, I shifted my gaze from the staff to the Demon King and shouted, taking his arm and leaning slightly forcefully towards the bathroom-like door in the room.

The Demon King followed me in silence. I don't seem to be complaining in particular. I don't even care if you complain.

But - I pushed the Demon King into the bathroom and tried to close the door, stopping someone's hand from moving the door that was about to close.

"Hey... Aww, you're gonna get your hands pinched."

The owner of the hand was my brother.

I'm coming in, too.

"Yes!?"

My brother's behavior was more forceful than mine as he slammed open the closing door and screwed his body.

Even the narrow unit bus will have three high school boys pushed into it. That's just narrow. Over capacity.

"Why are you even coming in my brother... You don't need to change, do you?

"Right. I just want to make sure the blood on the shirt you hid in the shadows of the rocks was causing it."

I look at you in surprise.

... Brother, when...

"When you're climbing the ladder."

My brother answered by reading the voice of his heart even though there was no piercing communication.

(... got hit)

When I escaped the cave, I climbed the rope ladder in the order of the princess, the demon king, me, and finally my brother.

I was just distracted by the way the demon king slipped my legs and let me fall, and my brother was out of consciousness. Probably checked into that gap.

"That's your blood, isn't it? And it's hard to tell because it's dark, but it's also stained in my pants."

In the end, you mean my brother's eyes can't be deluded...

I gave up hiding the fact of the bleeding.

"... then you just have to make sure with those eyes"

After the injury, I mean, the evidence leaves nowhere else but blood stains on the clothes. The wound is clean and completely gone.

I slipped off my blanket, which was woven with feathers, and then I also took off my pants and put them in my pants in front of my brother.

You're not hurt anywhere, are you?

With that said, let your body circle in a small space.

After my brother distinguished my body, he finally convinced me that this time he pointed the spear at the Demon King.

"Is that your blood?

... The Demon King does not answer silently and stares at his brother.

I know you're keeping my word, but when I looked at it, I was very ill-advised and harassed.
