Part 3

Kuro is being tactful in consideration for us.

「No, this is something that I wished to ask to Kuro-dono, too….」

「Me too？」

「Yes, Kuro-dono」

After I say so, Kuro sits down on his seat again.

Kuro is displaying a curious face.

But, I continue talking without minding it.

「I want to ask you to become a certain person’s bodyguard」

「Bodyguard？」

「Yes, those certain people suddenly decided to come to this kingdom. And I received an order from His Majesty to become their bodyguard, but I feel anxious for doing it alone. That’s why I want to borrow senpai’s power」

「Certain people？ Somebody like royalty of a different kingdom？」

I shake my head in denial after hearing what Gallios said. When I think about the people who will come in the future, they’re more than just another kingdom’s royalty.

「No, they’re not, but comparable to that」

「Huhm. Who is it, then？」

Gallios is asking with a puzzled voice.

「To be honest, the one who will come tomorrow is the hero, Reiji-sama, and his wives… Eh, what’s the matter, Kuro-dono！？」

Suddenly, Kuro spurts out the tea in his mouth.

The spurted tea sprayed right on Gallios’s face.

「I… I’m sorry Gallios-dono….」

Kuro apologized to Gallios.

「No, it’s okay, but… What’s the matter, Kuro-dono」

Gallios and I are surprised to see Kuro’s behavior. Kuro’s current state isn’t normal.

「It’s nothing, I just choked… My apologies… Please continue the story」

Kuro apologizes while coughing lightly.

「Yeah, back to the story, why did the hero come to this place? Is he going to sightsee the festival that starts tomorrow？」

Gallios asks that question while wiping his face with a cloth.

「It seems that is the reason, but… Gallios-senpai. You know about the hero Reiji-sama’s injury, right？」

「Yeah, he was defeated by an extremely powerful dark knight. I thought that no one but a god could injure that hero, but the world is vast, huh」

「I did think so, too. Thereupon, Reiji-sama will be coming to bath in the hot spring in this the Rox kingdom to heal the wounds inflicted by the dark knight」

This the Rox kingdom is famous for its hot spring. The main source of income for this kingdom is that hot spring.

「Thus, I request the two of you to become bodyguards for the hero」

I look at their expression.

Gallios and Kuro had complicated expressions.

「Uhm, Rember-dono. Why do we need to protect them？ Rei… I mean the hero-sama-tachi are already extremely powerful」

It seems Kuro also knows the matter about hero-sama, so it’s natural for him to be aware of how powerful the hero is. In the first place, finding someone who doesn’t know about the hero is a difficult task.

「Certainly, your question is natural… Save for those gods, the only one who can harm hero-sama-tachi might be just that dark knight, right?」

「Then why？」

「In fact, you’ll be bodyguards in name only; your actual job is to keep those guys with strange thoughts toward the hero’s wives away, you know…」

All women on hero Reiji’s side are beauties. Thus, someone with strange thoughts might appear again.

There was a great disturbance when a guy who tried to do something strange appeared during the hero’s previous visit.

「I cannot let them displease hero-sama-tachi. I can’t let the rampart to become wrecked even further, you know…」

I convey my real intentions.

「I see」

「No, somehow, I can understand your reason…」

Gallios nodded his head. It seems Kuro’s also guessing something.
