On a clear day of spring, could be seen two figures currently flying through the sky while sharing a very intimate space.
Since Saya didn't know how to levitate, or as she pretended to, Austin was left with no choice but to carry her in the bridal hold, all the way toward the lower town so they can eat sothing.
Saya was hugging her Onii-sama dearly as she enjoyed the gentle breeze along with the warmth she could get never enough of.
Her eyes were closed in bliss, as she spoke in a lodious tone.
"Where are we going, Onii-sama~."
Saya had created a barrier around them which not only provided physical and magical protection but also gave them stealth along with enough silence so they could converse comfortably.
Even if she asked about the place they were moving to, Saya couldn't care less about it since she would be fine until her Onii-sama was with her.
Austin, who had a slight smile on his face, was completely unaffected by the space he was sharing with Saya, which made the latter a little disheartened, too, as he spoke in a serene tone.
"A particular hotel in downtown. Since you didn't usually leave the castle, you might like this place."
From what Austin heard from her, Saya generally stayed at the palace since she was bound with a curse that didn't let her disobey the orders of the divine beast.
Of course, it was removed by a particular saint; that's why Saya was fine even though she was leaving the main castle without permission.
Saya, after responding in a rhythmic hum, heard her brother continuing what he had left to say previously.
"...and I want you to et soone special to ."
This ti Saya didn't respond as her smile broke down instantly too.
Saya muttered under her breath as she saw her brother's gentle expression, which beca even more charming just as he ntioned about soone Saya really does want to et again.
'Now finally, you have pricked my interest, Saint~.'
______________________
While descending into a secluded alley, Austin asked his sister about sothing concerning.
"You sure no one would recognize you, right?"
"I told you, Onii-sama, I never left the palace usually, so no one knows that this face belongs to the hero."
Saya, even being dissatisfied, got out of Austin's arms as she assured him about her identity in the town.
Since there wasn't any issue with the capital spies now, Austin didn't use the herb and got out of the alley while still in his original aesthetic.
It was bound to attract attention when a charming foreigner boy walked on the street with an amazingly curvaceous and beautiful woman beside him.
Due to their height difference, one might misunderstand them as brother and sister, but Saya's timid deanor so she could hold Austin's hand, made various doubts about this relationship.
But in the end, no one interrupted the duo before they made their way to their destination.
'Ran and Miso Corner.'
The na of the shop made Saya's eyes sparkle as she followed Austin inside the restaurant.
"Welc-huh?"
In the middle of the musical welco, the shop's owner halted suddenly, as her eyes fell on the custors just entered inside.
"Hero-sama?"
Akiko, the shop owner's eyes went wide in disbelief as she imdiately shot out of the kitchen counter under the shocking gaze of others, before she bowed deeply in front of the duo, or to be precise, in front of Saya.
"I welco you to my unruly abode. I might not be able to provide the best hospitality, but disappointnt would be the last thing you will experience once leaving this place."
She nearly shouted her welcoming speech, which naturally the others, too, heard.
"Did the mada say, 'Hero'?"
"This can't be...that infamous hero...?"
"Her babies are big... I wanna feel them~*hic*. "
"This can't be possible for that* hero to co here, right? "
Whispers and chattering started to revolve at a furious pace with the tall raven-haired young woman, in the center of it.
"L-let's go in first. Akiko-san, please excuse the misbehave."
Leaving the still bowed Akiko behind, Austin pulled Saya's hand and walked in a rush.
Saya blushed slightly upon seeing how her brother protected her from the world despite being already able to destroy everyone present inside that hall.
Soon Austin led his sister inside the eatery, which was a little less to almost non-populated, with illumination on a dim level since special guests are only allowed to this section.
Naturally, the person whom the owner regarded as a hero wouldn't be interrupted by other maids; heck, they didn't even dare to co to light in fear of angering Saya.
Austin's eyes went toward the table where solely a woman sat while gulping on sothing like she had been thirsty since a very long.
His heart beca calr after catching her glimpse, but before he could walk forward, an olive-haired girl appeared right before him.
"Where were you, Austin?"
"Sicily. What happened?"
Saya narrowed her gaze at the mage warrior who was speaking to her brother quite intimately, which she naturally didn't like much.
'It seems there are more than one to handle... '
"I don't know where you went and who this woman is...but Luna seems in a terrible temper. She has been chugging down since forever even though she couldn't get drunk. Her unspoken agitation was so high, that even Kyou-kun had taken a strategic retreat. Whatever you do, please don't make her even angrier or we might not return ho today."
As Sicily continued, in between Austin ran his eyes and indeed saw a small black-haired figure of a boy waving ekly at him.
**Gulp**
A strong gulp made away down his throat as he again looked at Luna and found that, indeed, her eyes belonged to the Saint, which he was used to glared with, before the ball night.
But he wouldn't back out now. In the first place, there wasn't any reason to be nervous since he and Saya had no such relationship nor any plan for having anything in the future.
But just to be on the safe side, he asked sothing from the girl in front.
"Sicily, can you create your best barrier around this hall, and also can you ask Akiko-san to evacuate the place."
This ti Sicily gulped hard as her eyes went to Saya for a second, before she nodded in agreent.
"Best of luck, Austin. I hope you a great future."
"Thanks Sicily."
