An A-Ranked Adventurer’s ‘Slow-living’ - 87 Two people deepening

“N, n …”

Lay the flora on the bed in the bedroom for a while.

Flora slowly woke up while sitting with a chair by the bed.

I am relieved to see the jade-colored eyes appear. Zoak’s antidote and Kourne’s antidote magic seem to work. Her complexion has improved as usual.

Flora slowly raises her upper body as she moves her eyes.

“Oh, aldo-”

As usual, Flora tries to call her Aldo and stops.

You probably remembered the words I heard from Zoac earlier.

My real name is Aldred.

“…………”

Flora continued to make her mouth open slightly to spin, but her mouth was immediately closed.

As usual, I was unable to say anything because of the shock of not being called and the guilt of not telling Flora my true name.

Some time later, Flora took a deep breath.

“… I have a lot of things to ask, but do you want to ask first?”

“Yeah, I’ll talk properly.”

When Flora stared straight ahead and answered her answer without diverting, Flora smiled as usual.

Just by seeing the smile, I felt relieved.

“Are you already settled with Zoac?”

“Oh, it’s over. No one is caught up except Flora, and no one else knows, other than Kurune, who helped me.”

“… I see. It was good that no one else was involved.”

Flora exhales with her hand on her chest.

The first thing to worry about if there is another victim is Flora.

Then, while Flora looks at this,

“And … Aldo was safe and good.”

“Oh, somehow. I was hurt a bit, but cure Kourne with recovery magic.”

“Well, where ?! Please show me properly !?”

He was healed by healing magic and tried to tell him he was OK, but Flora intercepted it and shouted.

I looked around my body sitting beside the bed and even checked my wounds.

“No, it’s okay! I’ve been cured by Pochan and Kurune’s recovery magic!”

“I know the magic is amazing, but I’m worried! Please show me your body!”

He puts his hand on the shoulder of Flora who touches the body in a hurry and calms him down, but he seems to be unreliable from Flora who is not familiar with recovery magic.

Well, I trust you for taking care of it many times, but I was skeptical the first time I was treated.

Seeing Flora trying to take off my clothes with a serious expression, I decided to take off my clothes gently.

There is also the fact that I am glad I am a little overwhelmed by the flora.

Flora removes my jacket and moves her gaze.

“Where was the wound?”

“Um, um, is it all over the body?”

“Well, that’s a pretty big injury !? Is it really okay?”

Did you not look to confirm that, Flora?

While thinking like that, my upper body is checked with eyes and hands all over.

After a while, did you wonder that no scars remained?

“… Are you really injured?”

“I was doing. That’s how good Krone’s recovery magic was.”

“That’s right … I don’t really care.”

Flora seems a bit unconvinced, perhaps because she has never seen a recovery magic.

Evidence of bloody and worn-out combat uniforms is proof, but it doesn’t show you anything to worry about.

“Is it alright?”

“Yes. I’m fine. I don’t think I’m injured.”

Flora was touching my thighs and feet, but calmed down as she knew nothing was injured.

“I have to worry about my injury more than me.”

“Oh! Do not look!”

As I remembered in my words, Flora turned her back on her left shoulder with her right hand.

Surprised by the sudden refusal, I guess Flora’s downfall.

“Do you think you still have a scar on your shoulder?”

When I asked her scaredly, Flora nodded with her back turned.

“There is no problem because the shoulder wound is healed with Kurune’s recovery magic.”

“Is it true?”

“Let’s check back because I’m facing you”

He turned his back on Kuriri and felt that Flora was terrifying.

“… Huh, it’s true, it looks like I wasn’t hurt.”

I can hear Flora’s voice reassuring.

Don’t ask her skin and hair for life. It’s easy to say that if you injure a woman, you take responsibility and get married. After all, the skin for women is so important.

But I’m sorry to have scratched Flora’s skin.

“I’m sorry to get involved in something that would injure Flora, even though it’s cured.”

Flora is a little upset when she suddenly bows and apologizes.

Then silently think for a few seconds.

Only the sound of our breathing flows in the bedroom.

Isn’t Flora abused in my mind? And the worst image emerges that you may be hated and say goodbye.

Short silence times are painful.

“… Please raise your head”

Still fluttering, Flora says in a calm voice.

When I looked up slowly, Flora, who had a slightly sad look, hurt. The moment I saw that expression, I felt my chest hurting.

Nevertheless, I keep my eyes on the flora and eyes.

“Is Aldo’s real name Aldred?”

“Yes, A-rank adventurer Aldred. That was me before coming to this village.”

“Sure, that person is the adventurer who defeated the dragon …?”

Rumors of an adventurer who defeated the dragon seemed to have reached this distant Nordende.

“That’s me.”

“That’s right … I thought Aldo was a great adventurer, but I didn’t think so.”

When I tell you flatly, Flora has a sad and complicated expression that is surprising. Either way, they were hiding. Flora’s chest will be wrapped in sadness.

“… Why did you keep the old thing silent?”

“I didn’t want Flora to worry too much, and I didn’t want to get involved.

To be awkward, Flora is looking silently.

Looking at his pure eyes, such a face-like word seemed very embarrassing.

“No, I think I didn’t really want to be disliked by Flora. I’ve been doing various quests in my adventure life. Some were gray, and even though the country and nobles were behind them, they also killed people in wars.

That’s why I have never lived a beautiful life. I was afraid to be known to Flora … ”

Said. I told you. That’s up to you.

What a pathetic excuse? It’s a word that makes you want to beat yourself.

Flora took a big breath when I was suffering from self-hatred.

“I don’t hate Aldo for that!”

Flora screams like never before.

I look up at my surprised voice.

Then there was Flora, sadly weeping.

Flora is weeping. Not tears of joy, but tears of sorrow. It’s so hard to see here.

“… Isn’t it enough to carry Aldo’s past? Isn’t it enough to support Aldo?”

“No, no! That’s something like-”

“That! Tell me more about Aldo! I want to know more about Aldo. I want to understand Aldo and share my feelings together. I’m … ”

Flora embracing my words.

It’s more emotional than ever before.

He even affirms his miserable parts and wraps them up. I was glad it was irresistible.

Oh, I thought this was to share emotions with people who really liked it.

In such a case, it should have been confidential as soon as Kourne told me.

Flora sheds tears and embraces my body tightly while sheeping.

“… Sorry Flora”

I gently embrace Flora in my chest.

“Gussut … Aldo is stupid. I don’t mean I can hate Aldo. I’ve been thinking for nine years and have you finally been tied?”

“I’m really sorry. Even though I hated me, I couldn’t leave …”

It’s absolutely my life to live with Flora anymore.

As long as Flora is in my purpose, I can’t let go of it …

I hug Flora in my arms. Then, he strengthened his arm tightly so that Flora could respond.

So hug each other for a while. A calm flora raises her face in her arms.

“Can I listen to Aldo’s old story? I want to know anything about my favorite people.”

“Yeah, me too. I want to hear how Flora thinks and how she’s spent.”

There are still a lot of things we don’t know about each other, but we should discuss them carefully.
