Return of the Former Hero Chapter 36

36. Former hero・is self aware of being a gentlemen

It’s another week to the recapturing of gauge fort.

Everyone, should I say the results of the special training is favorable for each of them?

With Caroline too, to a large extent, I was able to come in contact with her normally since then. The other day however, it was my fault to have place my hand on her shoulder casually from behind, going ‘hi’.‘KYAAAAAAaaaaaaaa〜……’
she left me feeling dumbfounded with a scream, and ran away at full speed.

Thoughtlessly, because I had thought that we have reached the point to be able to be in contact normally, I did not think that she would react like this even if she was surprised.

To my utmost,
“‘Kyaa!?……Ah, Haruto-sama.
Mou, please do not surprise me.”
“Tehe. Sorry, sorry.” (TN: )
I was looking forward to an exchange like this.

I sunk into sorrow, and was comforted in Mina’s chest.
Was Mina considerably maternal-like? She goes ‘there, there’ to me who was troubled.
It felt good, in both sense.
Of course, I fully behaved like a spoilt child.

Leaving that aside, rest is necessary for humans.
Although I had taken several days off till date too, today is the last holiday before the decisive day.

Therefore, I took Sharon on a date today.

Laurier generally sleeps during her day off.
Mina cannot come as she is working.
In the first place, there is no way that Rithina could come.

Being such a case, it was the 2 of us today for the first time in a while.

Shall I buy her a present?
It isn’t particularly a death flag.

Although there are luxury boutiques lining the Imperial Capital, there are naturally shops with reasonable price setting.

Among one of those, I bought a necklace.
I will give it to her later.
Laurier and Mina, and just in case, accessories were bought for Rithina too.

Fufufu.
I am an attentive man.

Wandering and walking, the 2 of us reached the park at last.

It’s different from the sports park here, but I remember the time when the 2 of us were training.

“Coming to the park, I remember the training in Torres!”

It seems like Sharon is thinking of the same thing too.

No way, I felt my heart tightening like this!

“We have walked plenty, do you want to take a break and sit down for a while?

“Un. It’s so, right?”

We sat on a bench that was nearby.

Recently, I am a gentleman.
Is it because I do it with everyone every night? Comparatively, I do not do erotic things usually.

Even now, I am satisfied just holding Sharon’s hand.
I am calm.

While looking at the sky that has turned unpleasantly cold, we spent it reminiscing the past.

Sharon, is like the energetic girl since the olden days.

Even if it’s the neighborhood bully of the village, it seems like she will openly quarrel and beat them up.
From before meeting me, I think such an ability might have been demonstrated properly.

And her grandma told Sharon to ‘always do it honestly and energetically’, it can be said that a person just as stated was brought up.

Around the beginning of this year, the grandma she loved dearly pa.s.sed away peacefully.
With that opportunity, it seems that she left the village to become an adventurer to look around the world.

Leaving on a journey while being seen off by her parents, she met me while acc.u.mulating achievement in the town of Torres.

“If I did not meet Haruto, I think I will still be at the bottom layer in Torres!”

While swinging her legs, the Sharon talking bashfully is cute.
I want to hug her tightly.

Regrettable.
I am a gentleman.
I, can, endure.

Why am I talking in broken language?

“Hey, Haruto?
What has Haruto done?
Why are you so strong?”

Ugh.
Well, I am asked.

I think it was probably a question she had throughout.

It isn’t necessary to hide it from Sharon now, should I talk without minding it?

“How are Haruto’s parents doing?”

Sharon asks.

Parents.

Is it my parents?

“Haruto……?”

To the sound of parents, I recall the events on earth and became just a little nostalgic.

“Is it something difficult to say?”

Sharon asks with a little uneasiness.
With a gaze similar to imploring, she is somewhat like a puppy.

If I put a collar on Sharon now, it might be super erotic.

Regrettable, it’s not the situation to be thinking of erotic things now.

“Aah, no, it’s not such a matter particularly.
Because I was an abandoned child, I do not know about my parents.”

“Eh…….. I, I’m sorry! I asked about an unpleasant thing.”

Hearing that I am an abandoned child, Sharon says sorry apologetically.

“No no, it’s fine you don’t have to really worry about it.
Even I do not care about it myself, wouldn’t it be foolish for only Sharon to mind it?”

It’s true.
I do not really mind that I was an abandoned child.

Although I was raised in an orphanage, the aunt working there was kind and I was on good terms with other kids too.

I thought it wasn’t something detestable.

“U, Un….. All right.”

Sharon says so, but she grasp my hand tightly.

Pulling such a cute Sharon by the hand, I lightly embraced her.

Sharon lean against me without resisting.

After that, I spoke of the matter of earth, being a hero and the journey in Andalugia while omitting certain parts.

If the small details are pursued, there should have been places that were somewhat strange, but Sharon, however, just listen to my story quietly.

This might be the first time I spoke so much about myself.

When I finish speaking generally, the sky has already turned red from the evening sun.

“That’s right.
Sharon. I bought this.
I’m giving it to you. A present.”

I handed the necklace bought in the day over to Sharon.

“Wa! T, Thank you!
That….. I’m very happy.”

As Sharon is pleased, it’s the best.

“Ah, B, But, I did not buy anything in return……”

Sharon says so dejectedly.

No, It’s just a present, I did not particular want anything in return…..

Nn?

A return gift?

Receiving a present from me delightedly, and being downhearted about having nothing in return, a devious thought formed when looking at such a Sharon with complicated expression.

I placed my hands on Sharon’s chin.

“Eh”

Sharon who was caught off guard was kissed just like that.

“Nnnn…… H, Haruto……?”

Even now, Sharon becomes bright red as soon as I kiss her.

“For a return gift, there is something I want to do.”

I say so and stands up, leading Sharon into the bushes.

Who was it, the guy who said that he’s a gentleman these days?
