Reborn as the Hero’s Daughter! Time to Become the Hero Once More! Chapter 134

The next day

The school naturally had a holiday, and Cortina was also quite free. Being a teacher, she more often than not had to work even during holidays, so free days like this were quite valuable.

Today, I used a special trait of little girlsthe puppy dog eyes1that I really didnt want to doto their full potential, and finally managed to convince Cortina to accompany out shopping.

I usually either spent ti at the academy, played music as part of my club activity, or went hunting in the forest under the guise of training, so when I suddenly brought up sothing as girly as shopping, Cortina seed awfully suspicious.

But due to my exceptional acting skillslike, even I was impressed with myselfCortina finally gave in, seeing this was a rare appeal from , and we set out.

Hehe, dont these clothes look cute? We shouldve brought Finia with us.

We have to keep soone to watch the house.

There isnt a thief crazy enough to sneak into our house. They would be turning not just but even Maxwell into their enemy!

Cortina quickly dragged to a clothing store and decided to turn into a dress-up doll. I was quite indifferent to clothes so she had almost no opportunities to dress up. I could feel a strange motivation in her, adamant on making the most out of it.

However, there was a reason why I took her out today. I planned to show her Reids appearance. According to Maxwell, it was only a matter of ti until she started questioning the present situation.

Before her doubts reached , I had to create a situation where she could see both of us at the sa ti to convince her that we were different people. So for that, I lent my illusion ring to Maxwell while I myself brought her out like this.

Cortina, those clothes look quite hard to move in.

Whats wrong with not moving that much!

Thats just unreasonable

My wish was to beco a vanguard fighter. A heavy warrior that could wield swords and shields of the myths may have been impossible, but I had no intention to abandon becoming a warrior that could bravely stand before the foes.

These frilly and sparkly clothes were too far apart from my ideal impression. Those made look more like those magician girls from the childrens fables.

Also, there was a bit of ti left until the appointnt with Maxwell. If we spent more ti outside, it would be easier to dress the encounter as a coincidence. In other words, I had to loiter around the streets with Cortina for the next two hours.

We are going to eat out today, right? I cant eat if I wear those clothes.

Mggh, yeah, I suppose staining them would be a waste. Okay, then Ill give up on making you wear it on the way. But Im still buying it!

Huh, you are?

Id feel bad for Finia if I was the only one to enjoy. Thus, well be having a fashion show once we are ho.

Ehh, gim a break.

Like that, I spent the next two years2being dragged around by Cortina. While I was the one who planned all this, it ended up wearing out.

After she had her way by dressing up in all kinds of clothes, even getting a matching hat, shoes and bag, I was left totally exhausted, but the appointed ti finally arrived. Well, I reaped what I sowed, I guess?

What happened before we had lunch at the terrace was uncalled for, but it was already established that we would go to the park now to rest post-al.

Raums capital didnt have that many parks in its interior. This was a forest country where all the towns were entirely surrounded by forest, so there was hardly a aning in making parks.

If you wanted to surround yourself with nature, all you had to do was to step out of the town a bit and the vast Mother Nature would greet you.

For that reason, there were hardly any parks made inside the urban areas. The fountain square in the main street was more than enough.

That said, its not like they were nonexistent at all either. The nature outside the city was too wild and full of animals. You couldnt relax among nature that way.

For that reason, there were a few squares inside the city where one could relax outdoors. And one of those squaresthat you could even call a parkwas situated close to Cortinas house. That place was most certainly where we would go to rest.

Or so Maxwell said, anyway.

Hm, whats the matter?

Nothing.

Cortina held my hand as she led through the Parks pronade. The temperature was gradually rising, so the wind blowing through the trees felt very pleasant. There were nurous citizens around us, also enjoying their stroll.

We planned to make a hired adventurer act like a burglar where Maxwell would appear in Reids appearance and beat them. Of course, it was necessary to prove that it was truly , so he had to use threads to accomplish it, but I could do that part myself from distance. I was confident in my skill to do that much without Cortina noticing it

Its about to beginJust as I thought that, Cortina strongly pulled on my hand.

Nicole, shall we go the other way?

Huh? Eh?

Yeah, I suddenly feel like going there.

Huh, but Huh?

Wait, we are about to begin, why did you suddenly want to change your direction?

But then it finally hit . Ambushes and traps were her fields of expertise. Putting it the other way, she could easily guess where the traps were laid.

In other words there was a high possibility that she sensed that ambush.

Why, whats wrong with walking straight?

Well, theres a bit of a problem.

I asked back, but she answered vaguely and dodged it. It seed that she really did sense the enemy. But pressing for questions here would instead put in a bad spot. She shouldve been well aware of how good my enemy detection skill was. It was too unnatural that I failed to sense the enemys approach.

I extended my thread towards the adventurer without Cortina noticing it and conveyed a ssage.

You were noticed. Move to the southwestern side of the pronade.

I could sense that my sudden voice made the hidden individuals jump in surprise. After that, one of the two individuals started to act on it at once. It was most likely Maxwell.

Thus, we changed our direction and arrived at the junction of the southern pronade, and then, one man appeared before us.

Looks like the adventurer that played thief managed to catch up to us. He jumped in front of us, but this was the right call on his part because we could sense his ambush anyway. That said, running all this way had left him panting severely, so he looked quite pitiable.

Either way, now we had to turn this into a scene where Reid and I are present at the sa ti.

Thus ca the critical mont.
