Chapter 21 Part 2
「Succ-ubus……!?」
I told her.
Without concealing anything, everything.
No, I didn’t tell her things like previous life or reincarnation, neither the unnecessary things like, the secret of my re-birth and much more.
Even so, I clearly, explained that I am a man who can use Succubus’s power due to sudden『Mutation』.
No, well, I seriously thought if it was good to tell her,
She thought of me as just a fellow adventurer who can help her with investigating or
I’m just a man she spent 1 night with. Nothing else.
If our relation was just like the above examples, then I probably wouldn’t have told her anything.
Because my birthplace and present condition is not normal, it’s only taking on risks by telling it to others. In my case it is.
……But,
strangely, I didn’t want to hide it from Elk.
It might be me thinking deeply, but that night –aside from what I did–, we both communicated while revealing our true feelings.
Though she invited me first, in the end it ended up as me wanting it, and she accepted my wish.
It’s the result of our true feelings talking together……So I’m not in the wrong.
To her, who even entrusted herself to me because she trusted me, I didn’t want to hide it from her.
No, well, it might only be self-satisfaction, but you see self-satisfaction is an important thing of life? If you are『Satisfied and confident in yourself』, then you will without a doubt fall and die in a ditch.
And then,
In future, I would also not like it to hide the truth from her, while having fun.
She is quite sharp, it would eventually be exposed.
That Elk, who heard the truth is right now frozen stiff from the shock of bitter truth.
「In other words, you are『Demi-human』……or are you not a『Human』?」
「No well, I can classified as『Human』, yeah most probably? I can use the power of succubus due to the mutation, just that much」
「I don’t think it’s a talk you can finish with『Just that much』, is it true……」
Maybe she『Accepted』the fact, Elk nodded while sighing.
To be honest, at this point, though I can expect her to keep it as a secret, but I can’t expect for her to talk to me normally, she would look at me strange eyes……I thought it right now. But it was me who said it.
Even so, I didn’t want to hide it, so I talked about it.
And, Elk’s reply,
「I don’t really care about this much?」
「Eh, Really」
「Really」
This development went far above my expectations.
No, no matter……how many demi-human species like Elves and Dwarves (not like I have met them yet) are, but strange oddities inside them, people like me, aren’t accepted so easily, I seriously thought that.
Then,
「It’s not like I don’t care about it at all, but still, it won’t change my evaluation of you」
he tells me that.
「Certainly, it’s not normal, but it’s nothing to be amazed of. I already know what sort of person you are. Though you’re diligent you look stupid, You’re kind but still have guts of steel, You’re strong, have kind and warm heart……are rough at nights, and just have power different from normal people……」
She said all in one breath.
She looked into my eyes,
「……You are just a rookie adventurer, I can trust」
and said as such.
Ah, how should I say it, Yeah, I’m honestly happy.
Her words were mostly joke on me, but it can’t be changed that I’m not a pure『Human』.
Due to that reason, I have resolution to face some discomfort after coming out in this society(?). Mom was also worried about it.
That’s why, I’m happy that she can still clearly speak『I can trust』to me.
……Yean, truly……
「……I……」
「 ? 」
「I’m really happy, that Elk is my first friend after getting out for journey.」
「……!?Y-You……! can speak those embarrassing things, easily!」
