The Traveling Hero Won’t Let the Innkeeper’s Son Escape

Alec, who seemed unable to breathe for a while, eventually raised his face when he exhaled deeply and calmed down.

"…… I'm sorry. Finally calmed down."

Alec, who looked up like that, had a calm look as usual. I still have a little anxiety, but I guess I've regained my usual calm.

Alec grabbed both hands for some reason as he stretched his spine and turned back to Ruth. When Ruth wonders about a situation where he joins hands, he can speak up faster than that.

The unchanging green eyes pierced the straight loose.

"Ruth, I made up my mind. I'll try to be brave."

"Alec......"

"But honestly, there may be times when it gets hard. Can I come back when that happens?

"Of course."

As Ruth nodded, Alec smiled relieved. And when I make him look just a little bothered, he squeals a little distracted.

"My journey as a brave man is going to end as soon as possible. I can't go into the details, but I want to finish my mission as soon as possible……………………"

"I see. But I'm sorry."

"It's okay. I won't force it.......... and when it's all over, I'm definitely going to come back to this village"

"Yeah, I'm here for you."

"So... the..."

"Yeah?"

Alec clouds his words so hard to say again for some reason. However, she did not look as pessimistic as she had earlier, and her face appeared to be either red or illuminated.

"... I want Ruth to wait for me."

"Wait, me? What?"

"... that... not me... but making a lover!

Ruth blushed as much as she could at Alec's story.

"Uh... why?

"... oh, 'cause I'm going around the world too, so you can't do that! It's not fair to just make Ruth! So don't make one of those either, I want you to wait till I get back."

When Ruth inquired in wonder, Alec told her why in a hurry. Which means he can't make love while Alec continues his brave journey, so he wants his best friend Ruth not to make a lover the same way.

(Speaking of which, Alec was going to propose to someone, right?)

Alec, who even thought about proposing, embarks on a journey as a brave man. I'm sure that's why I can't tell her what I think. I would feel alienated if my best friend showed me how friendly my lover was when I got back from going out in such a sad situation.

(Uh, I get it. If I worked hard at the Judo National Convention, all my friends would make lovers, and when I got back, they'd all be crazy about me, not interested in my celebration or anything... I guess I didn't mean to offend them, but I missed them so much...)

My chest ached when I remembered my unpleasant memories of my previous life. The sense of loneliness and alienation at that time is hard to say. "I wonder what my hard work was," he vanished and was sad for a while.

I can tell you because I've experienced it. I don't want Alec to feel like he's going on a journey to save the world.

(It's for my best friend. Let's wait for him)

Ruth loves girls, but also thinks friendship is important. For Alec's sake, I thought I'd give up making a lover. Of course, if I had a girl of my choice, I might speak up somewhat, but I couldn't deny that I had given up that it wouldn't happen anyway, and that I had a sloppy idea that it would be an excuse for me.

"Fine. I'll wait for you. So be sure to come home."

When Ruth said so, Alec lifted her head in relief as she lay down her face. The cheeks twist and stain red.

"... Oh, is that true? Are you sure you want to wait for me?

With this, Leo will be able to establish himself as the fourth faction in the current three-ways succession war.

"Until I finish my journey as a brave man, huh? Until then, huh?

"I know, so come back soon."

Ruth laughed a little because Alec was confused by what you said yourself.

In contrast to Ruth, who laughs though, Alec's face was serious. Because of that, I felt that the force holding both hands was only a little stronger and my nose was getting rough. Usually, this kind of look is unusual for a sober Alec.

"... I'm motivated by Russia. Ruth, I will fulfill the mission of the brave. And as soon as I make peace with the world, I will return to this village, to Ruth."

"You're reliable."

I felt a little strange about the dialogue, but for some reason I was a little relieved by Alec, who was strangely motivated. The anxiety seems to have been completely relieved because of the certainty that he is not alone when he returns. It is decided that it is better to do it motivated than to do it bravely.

"... Ruth, you know, me, I'm gonna be a better man now, and I'm gonna make some money and I'm gonna come home, and then..."

"…………………… then?

"Um... can I help you run your place together?

"Uh... Inn? Stay. You mean our shop?

"... oh, I want to help Ruth's house inn too. Hopefully, all the time... together..."

Alec, who turned bright red, stares at Ruth strangely with his eyes.

I didn't know Alec was interested in running a lodging, but it wouldn't be a lie because he says it at a time like this. Most villagers know that the inn will belong to Ruth in the future, so they may have been trying to speak up for a long time. I'm sure she's strangely excited and her face is red because she's embarrassed to ask her best friend again.

(Well, it will be hard for Alec to find a job in this village after the brave work)

He's a former brave man. Alec's ability in such a small village must make him feel more comfortable. Then it wouldn't be a bad idea to get help with the inn.

"Fine. Let's run a cabin together. I'll wait till then. Come back soon."

"... Huh!

When Ruth laughed and understood, he grabbed the hand he was holding even harder. I almost caught my hand in that pain, but sooner than that, Alec's face, with a strangely rough nose, was looming in front of me.

I felt my cheeks turn red with a sparkling blonde hair and green eyes close enough to touch me. This handsome man is dangerous if he gets too close.

"Ruth... Ruth... Ruth... me... me... no more..."

"Huh... what... ugh!?

Faster than asking questions, I got my lips blocked with something. While I'm surprised, it enters my mouth and takes away Ruth's resistance. I found out that was Alec's lips because he was flipped over to the bed behind him as he was, in the form of looking up at Alec, and realizing that his lips were wet.

"Ah, Alec……………………………?

"Ruth, I... I... I want to get rid of my anxiety..."

"Anxiety?... Oh, hey, you, where are you touching me!

Suddenly Alec grabbed my groin and screamed unexpectedly, trying to stop my moving hand. But Alec, who had a rough nose, didn't frighten me with that, and I went straight to take Ruth's clothes off.

Alec began to take off his jacket when the resistance was vain and more stripped and nothing was left but his lower body.

(Ah... Alec has a muscle)

I saw the pro-boxer-like muscles in front of me where I said in my previous life, and I knew how poor I was. He thought his face was handsome, his height didn't change, and his physique didn't change much, but apparently Alec was the type to make him wear it. My belly was broken into six pieces. No matter how confident Ruth is in his power, Alec is better than his ex, so there's no way he can win this if he resists.

"Eh... Ruth... sorry."

That being said, Alec has blocked his lips again. Don't hesitate to let your tongue in, your head is disturbed.

Reason complained that we should resist. But Ruth's hand stopped resisting on its own when he saw Alec's pleading expression when he said 'I'm sorry'. Because for some reason I felt that Alec would get hurt if I didn't like it any more.

Alec's palms stroke his skin as he deepens his mouth. But it was not surprising or offensive.

(That's why I feel wrong to accept it... but...)

With feelings of conflict with his heart, Ruth closed her eyes.
