The calm before the storm

Chapter 349: The Graveyard of Life

(TL: I’m so sorry, Life RIP in peace)

“Kiel” (Naofumi)

After I confirht had left, I call out to Kiel

“What is it, Niichan?” (Kiel)

“Do you have anyone you like?” (Naofumi)

“Naofu that topic?” (Raphtalia)

“Let’s see I guess I like Imya-chan” (Kiel)

“Imya?” (Naofumi)

She’s of the sauess it’s hard for Ih the same troubles as Melty

Kiel was there to witness our lecture to Firo, so she should know

And wait, I think Kiel’s ‘like’ is as a friend

“Did you call for me?”

I hall, came at the sound of Kiel’s voice

… Should I ask?

If I don’t confirm it here and now, there will be a bit of trouble in the future

If I try to instigate theret, there’s a risk that I’ll dae their relationshi+p

Yes, I’ll proceed with care

“Naofuain” (Raphtalia)

“Just think of it asto my responsibility as the Lord here” (Naofumi)

“Is it really that grand of a problem?” (Raphtalia)

No, I’

But still, I won’t stop

I need to take responsibility for ers

I have to think of what happens when I leave… and there’s also theat the castle

“Kiel likes I to be an honorable ood husband” (Naofumi)

“Eh!?” (Imya)

“W-wrong! I didn’t think you meant it that hen you asked, Niichan!” (Kiel)

“What did you think I meant?” (Naofumi)

“Since it was you, I thought you were asking about who I got along best with in the village! By not regret, I thought you hts with them” (Kiel)

Ah, as I thought

But, she should learn to follow the flow of the conversation

“Then a the boys, who do you like? No, who do you like based on whatever sexual preferences you have?” (Naofumi)

Even now, subjects like these make me feel a little sick, but I have to consider the future

Or else…

Ah, I a out my own problems

Even so, I don’t plan on torturinguntil the end

“W-what are you asking all of a sudden?” (Imya)

“Well, just in case The world’s on the brink of ruin, so I have to warn you all to live without regrets” (Naofumi)

“Niichan’s changed” (Kiel)

“Right…” (Naofumi)

I think so too

I did ban love not too long ago, and I rejected Atlas’s advances

It’s all Witch’s fault And mine

“That’s right… Niichan gets along ith Raphtalia…” (Kiel)

Raphtalia responds to Kiel’s suspicious glance with a questionable expression

“Well, I like Niichan uess next is Fohl-Niichan” (Kiel)

“Fohl?” (Naofumi)

“Yeah! I ht?” (Kiel)

Thinking back, Kiel did call Fohl’s beast form cool

Fuap left in Fohl’s heart after losing Atlas

“Naofu an end to this topic? I have a bit of a bad feeling about where this is headed” (Raphtalia)

“Okay Kiel! I’ll perether with Fohl! He’s a lonely man Go heal his loneliness!” (Naofumi)

“Understood, Niichan!” (Kiel)

Kiel runs up to Fohl in dog form

Her innocence is really so She has a charm similar to Firo’s

“Ah… it see” (Raphtalia)

“I’d like Fohl to regain his spirit” (Naofumi)

That’s my wish

As I couldn’t protect Atlas, at the very least, I have a duty to make Fohl happy

He’stoohis own happiness in the process I’m not sure if he’d be able to face Atlas like this

He doesn’t seee it

“Regardless of what comes of this, I won’t hold any responsibility” (Raphtalia)

“I’ll be the one taking responsibility” (Naofumi)

I’d like for Fohl to find a special soe he wants to protect, like he did with Atlas

“Next is Imya” (Naofumi)

I’ll have to confirers anyways

She’s not like Sadina, but eventually… she’ll like soht?

“W-what is it?” (Imya)

“Do you have anyone you like, Imya?” (Naofumi)

“Um… that is…” (Imya)

Her face is dyed red as she holds both arround

Eh? Could it possibly be me?

She arrived in the village in the sae

What’s ular intervals

Like with Firo, I kept her around because she was fluffy, but she seeely conscious of it

“Well… that is… um…” (Imya)

“Hero of the shi+eld-sama, what seems to be the problem?”

It see up to me one after the other today

When I look up, I see Imya’s Uncle

“Well, I asked Imya if she liked anyone, and Imya, by your reaction, am I supposed to take that as affirle person, and in the end I plan on returning to my world, but even so, does your answer remain the same?” (Naofumi)

“Um… yes” (Imya)

Even with her face colored a deep shade of red, Imya nods

And having sensed the situation, Iood humor

“I see, I see! You’ve become a fine woman, Imya I’m proud of you” (Imya’s Uncle)

“By the way, you’re quite popular in the village Do you have any intentions of e?” (Naofumi)

On my question, Imya’s Uncle’s expression stiffens He slowly turns his head to look at me

His eyes are screa about?’

“What? I’ about your future plans” (Naofumi)

I know I had hid and learned the village’s popularity ranking Iher part of the list (TL: This was right before the Hououin Kyoufumi Arc)

“I have absolutely no idea what you’re talking about, and I don’t knohy you’re bringing e up!” (Imya’s Uncle)

“Even so, you apparently have high popularity,your s” (Naofumi)

“Eh!?” (Imya’s Uncle)

“Is that true?” (Imya)

Iether and asks

“I’ll have to give out a feards to you all as well If you ask for freedorant it to you” (Naofumi)

He’s done enough work deserving of such a thing

Be it weapons or aruy’s the one who e

“If you have awife somewhere in the world, I could search for her” (Naofumi)

“Uncle, I don’t reh your looks are good” (Imya)

“I-I live foras everyone’s happy with that-” (Imya’s Uncle)

So he isn’t aware of it? Perhaps he’s actually relatively dense

Is he the type of person that spends soothers that he passes his prime alone?
