c382 (1/2)

Well, this one was done in a bit of a rush, I had a lot of normal acaderaestions are considered Not too interesting of a chapter, it mostly focused on how the other heroes kicked off their Christ else to occupy : spoilers, spoilers, lots of spoilers

THE CHRISTMAS OF THE shi+ELD HERO PART 6

After that we continually travelled around the village using the flying sled

Is this really necessary?

As I think this, I spot Ren

He’s inside of his house His face is planted on the desk next to his

“Jingle bells… Jingle Bells…” (Ren)

What is this person doing?

I knock on hisand call out to him

Ren looks up He looks like he is about to cry

“What happened?” (Naofumi)

“I-It’s nothing” (Ren)

I peer into Ren’s room

Inside, there is a table with an array of fancy food on it and a cake in the center It is set for three people

…So neither Feht nor Taniko showed up?

I can understand Taniko, but Feht… you too?

What do these people think the good intentions of others are? Why did they ignore Ren’s offer?

…Wait, I aht now I should look at this from Santa’s perspective

Does she seriously intend to do that?

Christ may be over but does she plan to leave him like this?

(TL: They use a really bad pun that works in English but I will not use it here They pretty le Bells)

How sad…He worked quite hard, and for this end to a holiday

Is what I think from Santa’s perspective Not much of a difference

sigh… There’s no choice, I’ll do a little bit of work for him

It’s on the way, anyways

“Ren” (Naofumi)

“What is it?” (Ren)

I pull two presents out ofand throw them at him

“Hold on to those, and don’t open theood will happen” (Naofumi)

“Ah…” (Ren)

“See you later” (Naofumi)

I proceed to give Firo orders

She starts running enthusiastically and we take off

Froh the sky

There I see Fe the sky from a well-hidden location Taniko is there as well They are practicing swinging their swords near the monster stable

I get off of the sled in a place they can’t see and approach them as if I was simply in the middle of a walk

“What are you two doing? Everyone is already asleep” (Naofumi)

“? Naofumi huh I’ve told you before, but today I plan to stay up in order to give my thanks to that old man Windea has said that she wishes to accoht)

“Yeah! I want to thank Santa!” (Taniko)

Taniko is sporting a pair of extremely pure eyes

I think Ren will regain his co these two to hi Santa Claus

“About that I cae unto me” (Naofumi)

“WHAT!?!” (Feht)

“He toldoutside the monster stable with the sword hero”

“KU! That old o acquire our presents froht) (TL: for acquire, she uses a word that is closer to steal, snatch, plunder…etc)

“Understood!” (Taniko)

Feht and Taniko leave in a hurry

This will let Ren enjoy Christmas a little… Is what I want to believe

“You…” (Gaelion)

Gaelion ees from the stable and stares at me

“You did so unnecessary” (Gaelion)

“I don’t knohat you’re talking about I just found The Hero of the Sword crying to himself to be too pitiful You would have done the same” (Naofumi)

“That is… You’re right, but… Yes that is pitiful, but…” (Gaelion)

“I thought I would play Santa and give Ren a hand” (Naofumi)

“Sigh… I guess there’s no choice Those two had been giving off a strange aura and staring at each other the entire time Now the monsters in the stable can finally sleep” (Gaelion)

It seems the stable’s residents were still awake

Until now The night is now completely silent

What? Did those two think they would miss Santa if they left for Ren’s place?

Well… it didn’t take o

Even I found Ren’s display pitiful

And with that, I have given Ren his Christmas present

“Oh yeah, Please give these presents to the monsters here” (Naofumi)

“There’s no point if you don’t give them yourself” (Gaelion)

“The monsters don’t even believe in Santa All of their wishes were addressed directly to me” (Naofumi)

They were all things like ‘Eating Naofu with Naofumi’

I give the presents of the ones who actually asked for iitems to Gaelion

“By the hat does Kogaelion? He never hung up a wish slip”

“Fumu… I’ll ask him”

Gaelion enters the stable and begins a long debate

“… That’s i else”

And as such, the debate continued What could he want?

“He wants a hug from you” (Gaelion)

“Why do I have to…” (Naofumi)

“He says it is a forh physical contact)

“… I see” (Naofumi)

Is it that custom that is prominent overseas? (TL: Not where I’m from)

I hug Gaelion, who has changed into Kogaelion form

“KYUAAAAAA!”(Kogaelion)

And he lets out a loud cry His spirits are really high

“What a strange person” (Naofumi)

I would learn thebehind these actions a little later…

“Mu~…” (Firo)

Firo is glaring at me from the shadows

Is she jealous? She really is on bad terms with Gaelion

She should learn fro with Gaelion just fine
