Chapter 276 – Things You Shouldn’t Know
“So Onii-san, where are you headed to from here?”
“About that. Weren’t you going to look the other way?”
“Just out of curiosity. Well, if you don’t want to tell , I won’t force you to.”
The fight? and Koujiro ended it.
We were talking in an equipnt store.
“For the ti being, it’s not yet known to the entire Allied Forces, but the Seven Heroes and the Generals have already received word that Espie-jou is missing, and they suspect that she may have been taken prisoner by the Demon King’s Army.”
“Oh~”
“Those Bethreal folk must be in a frenzy? Well, this one will not inform Bethreal! The missing Espie-jou escaped with a strong and gentle prince on a white horse… if you interfere, the white horse will kick you to death!”
“No, I’m no prince… I an, you’re being too irresponsible.”
Normally, it would be quite bold to laugh off Espie like this, when she might have made a big difference in history and the war…
“But that aside… Onii-san is quite strong, but why don’t you take part in the war?”
“Hey hey, what is this? Have you been interrogating all this ti?”
“That’s why, I’m trying to satisfy my curiosity. The powerhouse unknown to humanity and the world, unknown to everyone… isn’t it natural to be interested?”
“I, I see…”
Powerhouse…… huh… being praised by the active Seven Heroes.
Moreover, without preconceived notions like the Son of the Hero.
It’s a bit embarrassing…
“In that sense… Onii-san is also amazing… but what’s really amazing is…”
“Hmm?”
“The one who taught Onii-san how to fight… isn’t it?”
“Huh!?”
I was really nervous for a mont. Wh, what is he…
“Onii-san is indeed a capable fighter… but not a talent, a hard worker… after understanding Onii-san’s physical abilities, you train them in a well-balanced manner, and have not only a sense of stability, but also explosive power… more than anything, techniques that even this one, with my many years of combat experience, does not know… these techniques are also deep and dense, not only superficial… it is impossible for a young man of your age to get to that point…… let alone by himself…”
“Well, that’s…”
“I’m sure… you must have been trained by a great master, I can imagine.”
Ah~, you got … for a mont, I thought he had found out about Tre’ainar, but I just imagined it… but to know that I have a master just from that one confrontation… this guy…
『Uh huh. As expected of Koujiro. Mm-hmm. A great master is indeed attached to the child. Mm-hmm! Quite great!』
And the person behind nodded with a happy smile on his face… no, this is one of the Seven Heroes who defeated you in the past…
“Balance, stability, technique, explosive power… in these respects… let’s see…… there is a big difference with Hiro, one of the Seven Heroes like this one.”
“…… Nu…”
“Hiro only specializes in explosive power, and is much too unstable.”
I was surprised when my father’s na was ntioned, and I couldn’t help but react.
“Oya… the Hero Hiro is unstable?”
“Hmm? Indeed. Hiro clearly doesn’t have a firm foundation… while he can defeat all sorts of powerful opponents with his explosive power and natural talent, astonishingly, he struggles against just about anyone… when he hits his stride, he’s absolutely unbeatable. However, when he’s pushed around, he’s surprisingly fragile… that’s the kind of guy he is.”
“…… Is that… right……
“Well, that’s why Mikado-Jisan, his ntor and the ‘Supre Commander’, is giving him a hard ti right now.”
The strongest, unrivaled Hero… rather, I thought that was just like my father.
That’s why, not only my fighting style, but also the stability and things like that, I really went down a completely different path from my father… Hmm? That? Now, this guy… my father……
“I see, Onii-san.”
“Hmm?”
“Onii-san… what is your relationship…… with Hiro and Mamu?”
“Buh!?”
Argh, such an unexpected question caught off-guard that I blurted out this ti.
“Wh-what, are you talking about… with the Seven Heroes…”
“Similar scent? It’s kind of the sa as those two… it feels sowhat similar. Makes curious about the connection, doesn’t it?”
“Eh, similar to…?”
“Even though your fighting styles are completely different… for so reason, when I interact with Onii-san, Hiro and Mamu inevitably co to mind… and when I ntion their nas, your heart skips a beat you know ♪.”
Hey, this guy! He was interrogating while remaining aloof!?
I an, maybe it’s because he can’t see, but he can sense and perceive more things than other people…
“Big brother!”
“Hmm? Oh…”
At that mont, Espie rushed over from the back of the store.
Nice timing!
The robe that had been provided by the army was stained with blood, so she was wearing a new white robe.
I was going to buy new clothes, and I let her choose what she liked.
It seems that she had a lot of trouble, but I wonder if she finally found sothing good. When I thought about it, Espie sulked a little.
“Koujiro! Don’t talk to Big brother so much!”
“Hmm?”
“He’s Espie’s Big brother… Koujiro, hurry up and go ho! Big brother doesn’t look like he’s having fun with Koujiro!”
“Otto~, I’m sorry about that! But rest assured. I will not take your dear brother away from you, Espie-jou!”
“Uh~……”
Oops, it looked like I was getting along so well with Koujiro, so I guess she got a little jealous.
Sohow she’s staring at Koujiro as if she wants to bite him… but……
“Espie, do you want that one? It looks good on you.”
“Huh? …… uh, un, Big brother, do you think this looks good? Is it pretty?”
“Oh, it’s pretty cute.”
“Hmm… Ehehe…… then I’ll take it…”
“Gotcha!”
“Big brother… thank you…”
“Ooh.”
When I patted her on the head, she smiled very happily and imdiately got back into a good mood.
“I’m glad, Espie-jou. You’ve beco so cute.”
“Shut up, Koujiro. You can’t even see it, can you?”
“Even if I can’t see it, I can sense the flowers blooming in Espie-jou’s heart and expression, which were empty♪.”
“What do you an, I don’t understand.”
But Espie was imdiately put in a bad mood… I thought, but…
“Dahahaha, please cheer up~, I promise, I won’t bother you anymore.”
“Shut up.”
I don’t know what it is…… even though she doesn’t like him… it doesn’t feel like rejection, it’s like she’s opening up even though she doesn’t like him.
“Espie. Get so spare clothes and anything else you want.”
“Yes. Big brother, panties too!”
“…… Oh.”
“Hey… Big brother… this one has cat drawings… this one has dogs… which one is cuter?”
“Buy them both”
“Huh… both? Is it okay to get both!?”
“I an, go get more.”
“Yes! I understand! Thank you so much, Big brother!”
Phew, I didn’t think I would be shaken by such a question.
After spending three months with Amae, I’ve gotten used to things like this…
“No, no, Onii-san. You should be a little embarrassed about that…… wouldn’t she say sothing like ‘I’ll put them on and show you how they look’… and cause a little embarrassnt?”
“That’s because I’m a big brother. I’m used to dealing with little sisters.”
“You’re used to… Big brother, do you have another sister… besides ? Hey, who is it? Where is she? Is she strong? Is she stronger than ? Is she cute? Do you like her… more than ?”
Hah, she’s kind of boisterous and attracted the attention of everyone in the store… but was I able to get through Koujiro’s interrogation for now?
Koujiro also has suspicions, but it doesn’t seem like he’s sure of anything, so as it is――――
“Well, the question I asked earlier… I’m not going to ask anymore.”
“Huh!?”
“In this world … there are things you shouldn’t know. Besides, I’m sure I’ll see Onii-san again soday, and if I’m alive by then, I’ll ask.”
Saying that, Koujiro whispered in my ear so that Espie couldn’t hear us.
This uncle…… he really is one cunning guy…
