Mannen D-rank No Chuunen Boukensha, Yotta Ikioi De Densetsu No Ken Wo Hikkonuku - CH 46

[Heavens. No matter how tough you are, if you got hit by that directly you would not have escaped unharmed]

[That’s how it is. You must also think about your self.]

[B-But… ..]

While being lectured by Aria and me, Cruxie shrugged.

[Why? …. Why did you try to save us !?]

Zeon raised a harsh voice.

[Did you take pity on our stupidity!?… .. you’re just a simple commoner!]

It seems that at least he is aware of his stupidity.

……I mean.

[Shut up, you have no right to complain, fat man]

[Fugyaa !?]

Oops.

I got so irritated that I accidentally kicked his stomach.

[Y-you! You dare to kick a noble like—- fuah!]

[Shut up fatty]

This time I kicked his face.

[Where do you want me to kick you now?]

[Hii…]

[You drew the red dragon towards us. No matter how you look at it, the level of bullying has risen too high. Do you think that because you are a nobleman you can kill commoners without receiving punishment? I have never heard of such a law]

[Y-you’re wrong, We didn’t plan to kill you….!]

[Why being so weak?]

When declaring the word “weak”, the fat man …… no, Zeon distorted his face with regret.

[For now, we will report this case to the princess]

[What!?]

Zeon and his goons suddenly paled.

[W-Wait …… a-anything but that, please!]

He said it desperately with teary eyes.

The princess has a great attachment to Cruxie.

Surely she would be furious.

It seems as if the threat worked, after that Zeon and his people became more obedient, then he started wanting to free himself from the facts, I mean, he started to confess.

Apparently, Zeon has had a great admiration for Princess Fiora for a long time.

Upon entering knight’s school, he felt like he had risen to heaven when he and the princess became classmates.

I’d like to be in a unit with her if possible, that’s what he thought.

However, the royal family only allowed those with good social status and good skills to join.

That girl named Marie must be one of those.

Zeon, who is the second son of a count, was satisfied with having the requirements (he thought), but his abilities were not enough.

But he didn’t give up, he struggled desperately to become a man the princess recognized …… that’s when Cruxie appeared.

Cruxie who was recognized by the princess and received an invitation to join her unit.

Zeon could not tolerate his existence.

[In other words, you’re just jealous]

Rather than saying he was a commoner or disrespectful, it seems that he simply hated him as a love rival.

[What an insignificant man]

[Guh]

Before Aria who said it directly, Zeon fell apart.

[So how did you know we were here?]

[W-Well… ..I infiltrated the teachers’ room and saw what kind of requirements you needed for your tasks… ..]

Did he even go to the trouble to do that?

[…… Although I was the one who did it]

One of his followers muttered dissatisfied.

[If we start with level 3, it was normal… ..]

We have Cruxie who has passed level 6.

It would be natural to estimate it that way.

In fact, we skipped level 1 and 2.

[That’s the way things are… .. what will you do, Cruxie?]

[Eh?]

When I asked him, Cruxie opened his eyes.

[Will you punish them here and now? Will you report them to the school or will you tell the princess?]

[Ah, no… ..We don’t need to go that far… ..]

…… He really is someone very kind.

[Well if you say so]

Zeon and his men breathed a great breath of relief.

[…… However, if you do something again next time, even if Cruxie forgives you guys, I won’t. Remember it well]

When I looked at them coldly, their faces turned blue and they nodded several times.

[Ah! Apart from that, if you like, this… ..]

One of Zeon’s followers took something out of a bag somewhat burned by the red dragon’s breath.

It was 【Fire Lizard Scales】

[While we waited for him, I found him by chance and defeated him and dropped him… ..]

It seems that he will give it to us.

I decided to accept it with gratitude.

As a result, I was able to complete the level 3 task, so we decided to return to the surface.

Zeon and his people will also return immediately.

It was terribly uncomfortable, so we didn’t do it together.

So, on the way….

Cruxie stopped suddenly and when I thought something was wrong….

[…… This time we were able to do it, but similar things can happen from now on]

I remembered the letter that was in my room.

I tried asking Zeon secretly before, but he has no recollection of something like that.

I don’t think his lying at this point, I must have been a different person must have written it.

In other words, it seems like it’s not just Zeon who has a dislike for Cruxie.

[If you guys are in a unit with me, you will be—– Buh !?]

I smacked Cruxie’s cheeks a little, splat, a sound like that was heard.

[What are you doing !? (What are you doing!?)]

I told Cruxie who was surprised.

[I told you before, I don’t care about those things]

[… .Lucas-kun….]

Now that I remember, I think it was a “provisional” feeling.

It is a great opportunity.

Let’s make it very clear.

[Let’s form a “formal” unit, Cruxie]

[…..Yes]

[So it will be my pleasure from now on]

[T-Thanks]

Cruxie said it cheerfully with a bit of tears in her eyes.

***

Mom, Onee-chan, how are you?

I’m fine.

In fact, I was finally able to form a unit with new members.

…… .I caused them problems because of me… ..but, they don’t care at all.

If it is with them, it is possible to continue together from now on.

But, there is only one problem… ..

The two of them started suspicious activity at the camping tent, what should I do !?

[Cruxie… .. are you still awake? …… it seems like he’s asleep]

It started after confirming that he was asleep.

…… .. I’m actually just pretending to sleep.

After a while, there was a sound like water that made me feel somewhat uncomfortable just listening.

Every now and then I heard a leaked voice “Hmm”.

What the hell are those two doing?

I am afraid and I cannot look back.

…… .But, I think I can guess in a certain way.

I can’t be a kid forever.

W-Well, I don’t have that kind of experience… ..but I do have the knowledge.

I think they are doing what they call “men’s and women’s businesses.”

Of course, I realized from the beginning that the two of them weren’t normal.

Maybe they are lovers.

But…..

You don’t have to do something like that here!

Really give me a break! I won’t be able to sleep out of curiosity!
