“— ina, Tina, wake up.”
I woke up to a pleasant voice calling .
Halt-sama was in front of when I opened my eyes.
“...Halt-sama?”
“Goodmorning, Tina. It’s already morning.”
Eh…no way.
I…I overslept—
It is my duty to wake Halt-sama up.
I need to rise earlier than him.
And yet…
“We partied late into the night yesterday, so there’s no helping it. Wanna sleep more?”
It was my birthday yesterday.
Halt-sama held a celebration for , and we had a lot of guests who ca over.
The party continued on well into the night, so it was already very late by the ti we slept.
There was another reason why I overslept.
I requested to have the “privilege of having Halt-sama to myself for an entire day” as my birthday present.
Because of that, Halt-sama and I slept together — only the two of us.
It had been a while.
Halt-sama and I flirted a lot.
I-It was… really pleasant.
“Good morning, Halt-sama.”
I was too embarrassed to look him in the eye, so I dived under the blanket, hiding while greeting him.
“Morning, Tina.”
“Ah!”
He pulled the blanket off for a bit.
I wasn’t wearing anything.
…Halt-sama, too.
“Is it okay to give you a good morning kiss?”
Halt-sama pulled with a bit of strength, forcing to face him. His face was super close.
His azure eyes that seed to suck in were truly gorgeous.
I gave a tiny nod, and he kissed so gently.
I was in cloud nine, but also equally embarrassed, so I buried my face in Halt-sama’s chest.
“What do you want to do today?”
Halt-sama stroked my head while asking .
What to do?
It was a very difficult question.
If I could spend the whole day with Halt-sama, anything we do would make happy.
But then, I felt it would be a waste if we holed up inside the mansion for that entire ti.
“How about going down mory lane and visiting the places we went in the past?”
“Past…do you an the ti when I was the Guardian Hero?”
“Yes. Halt-sama, there are countries you haven’t visited yet, right? We can set up teleportation circles, and I have a country I want to visit.”
I heard that there the special product that I really wanted to buy was being sold in the city that Guardian Hero Haruto-sama and I once saved.
Moreover, it was being sold as a souvenir which anyone could buy, apparently.
Even if it wasn’t for sale, I would definitely get my hands on it, even if I used the help of H&T Corp.
“Got it. Then let’s go to the countries that we traveled together back then.”
“Yes! Thank you very much!”
I did it.
Success!
Afterward, I donned my clothes and prepared to go out. We would have our breakfast outside.
That’s because Halt-sama is mine only for today.
“So, where do you want to go first?”
“I want to go to Rieggollen!”
“Rieg…The country where the city of Gareth is?”
“That’s right!”
As expected of Halt-sama, it’s been a century, but he still rembered the na of the city.
The city that I wanted to go to was precisely that place.
“By the way, why do you want to go there?”
“Eh?”
I wasn’t sure, but it seed like Halt-sama wasn’t keen on going there.
“See, we did save that city from a stampede, but other than that, we didn’t do anything there, right?”
Indeed. There wasn’t anything special that happened then.
That’s why it might seem odd for us to visit that place while going down mory lane.
But that’s fine.
“We can’t?”
“N-No! Okay, let’s go to the city of Gareth!”
Fufufu.
Pleading with upturn eyes was a success.
──***──
We magically teleported to Gareth.
Halt-sama’s teleportation magic only worked in places he had already been to before.
He had been with as the Guardian Hero once before, but he didn’t have the ability to mark it with a teleportation circle before.
In short, Halt-sama already visited this place after his reincarnation.
Why didn’t you tell ?
Ah, perhaps —
“Did you want to prevent from seeing that?”
“Ah, er, no, I didn’t plan to do that…”
We were in the central square of the city of Gareth, and right in the middle stood a splendid statue of the Guardian Hero.
It was Haruto-sama.
It was truly a magnificent statue of Haruto-sama.
I ended up fascinated with it because he looked so heroic.
Of course, the real Haruto-sama was a million tis more handso that this!
“It’s so handso.The artisans of this city are truly talented.”
“Yup, they did beautify it a lot.”
“Haruto-sama’s appearance back then was far more handso than this!”
I hugged his arm.
“T-Thanks, Tina.”
“Yes. Of course, the present Halt-sama is also handso, too.”
I really love Halt-sama.
I also really loved the Guardian Hero Haruto-sama.
Haruto-sama and Halt-sama. I’m over the moon because they’re the sa person.
──***──
“Tina…are you sure you wanna buy that and bring it ho?”
“Of course!”
This [Life-Size Statue of the Guardian Hero] was the reason why I wanted to go to Gareth.
It’s only natural that I wanted to buy it and bring it ho.
I’m going to display this in my room!
Halt-sama let buy the statue, so I did.
It was a bit pricey, but I’ll just add it to the expenditures. I can let the H&T Corp borrow it from ti to ti whenever there is an event.
It would stay inside my room for the rest of the ti.
I have to keep it in tip-top shape everyday, after all!
──***──
We went to two other countries after that.
Halt-sama hadn’t been to these places after his reincarnation, so we got there by my flight magic.
One of them was an allied country made up of smaller kingdoms. The inn where we had fond mories of was still there in the sa spot as it was in the past.
It was the inn where Haruto-sama and I slept on the sa bed for the first ti.
I rembered how my heart was about to burst back then.
We have to go back and stay here again next ti.
The other country was the Kingdom of the Dwarves.
It was the place where Haruto-sama chose a dagger for .
The store no longer existed, but the shop owner dwarf was still alive and working exclusively for the imperial family, apparently.
Halt-sama and I discussed visiting this place again when we’re free enough to stay a bit longer, and how nice it would if we could et with him once again.
It had gotten pretty dark by now.
The next country would be our last stop.
I mulled about where to go next, when —
“There’s one place I want to take Tina to, but will it be okay with you if we go there?”
“Yes, it’s fine!”
Halt-sama had a place in mind apparently.
“Where are we going?”
I would follow you wherever you want though.
“You’ll know when we get there, so look forward to it!”
“Alright, I understand.”
I took Halt-sama’s outstretched hand, and the teleportation magic was activated.
