Chapter 345 Theyre Hiding a Big Secret...... (2/2)

[Since it looks like this would be a long talk, how about we talk about this over a cup of tea? A patient I had treated today gave me some delicious cookies.]

Saying that with a smile on her face, Dr. Vier leads me to the living space adjacent to the clinic.

Unnn, I think we’re close enough that she would let me into her kitchen like this, so it’s not strange to ask her out.

Thinking about this, Dr. Vier urged me to sit on a chair.

[……So? What’s the story for today?]

[Yes, actually……]

Listening to what she said as she prepared to make a cup of herbal tea, since I think it was a good starter, I tried to get to the point…… but at that moment, I heard some hurried footsteps, so I shut my mouth and turned around to hear that sound.

Thereupon, the door to the kitchen was vigorously opened and a familiar person appeared.

[Vier! I’m here to play! Look, I got some very tasty…… you…… kan…… Eh?]

[……E- Errr, good afternoon…… Neun-san.]

[……Kaito-san?]

[Y- Yes.]

(T/N: Youkan is sweet bean jelly.)

Neun-san, who appeared with a big smile on her face, immediately stiffened when she saw me, and her face gradually turned pale.

And then, moving like a broken tin can, she moved to the corner of the room…… and sat down, hugging her knees.

[……I can’t become a bride anymore…….]

[…………………]

I couldn’t even react quickly enough before her tension drastically dropped down!? S- She got absurdly depressed for some reason.

Thereupon, Dr. Vier approached Neun-san and called out to her with a wry smile on her face.

[Hika…… Neun. You abruptly came, but why are you suddenly depressed?]

[……Kaito-san saw me being unladylike…… I can’t…… be a bride anymore.]

[…………………..]

No, I’m sorry to say this, Neun-san…… but isn’t it a little too late to say that? You’re the one who showed up carrying a dragon at our first meeting, you know……

[……Arehh? Speaking of which, Neun-san and Dr. Vier acquainted with each other?]

[A- Ahhh, unnn. We’ve known each other for quite a while. Hikari, I mean.]

[Eh? Did you just call her Hikari?]

[Ah…… No, ummm……]

Neun-san’s real name came out of Dr. Vier’s mouth…… That should mean that Dr. Vier knows that Neun-san is the First Hero. However, why is she that flustered?

[……Ahh, that’s right! It’s alright. I also know about Neun-san’s true identity.]

[Ehh? A- Ahh, I see…… I’m glad. I can be relieved then.]

I see, she was flustered because she thought I just found out that the First Hero was still alive.

[Even so, for you to know that Neun-san is the First Hero…… Could it be that Dr. Vier……]

[ ! ? ]

[K- Kaito-san!?]

[……Did you help Neun-san when she was the Hero?]

[Eh? What’s the matter?]

[No, it’s nothing.]

[Yes, as Kaito-san thought, I had been under Vier’s care when I was a Hero, and we are still friends because of that.]

Arehh? What is this? Both Neun-san and Dr. Vier’s expressions and voices are quite normal.

However, I could feel a strong sense of urgency in the emotions conveyed by my Sympathy Magic. Moreover, they’re coming from both of them……

Feeling a strange sense of unease, I don’t really have any particular reason to pursue this matter, so I just nodded my head in agreement.

Dear Mom, Dad————- I visited Dr. Vier to invite her to the Six Kings Festival, and in her home, I also ran into Neun-san. The two of them seem to be friends, but something feels strange. Yes, it’s as if———— they’re hiding a big secret……
