Chapter 69 (1/2)

Chapter 3: The beautiful third rank.

「Ooo…」

Trishulia Castle Accepting the certificate from the counter, Yuuto’s cheeks loosen instinctively.

Hero contribution certificate.

Yuuto Katsuragi-Sama

Your activities are praised and you’ll be given points.

Your ranking will go up this time.

７８２nd→５６４th

「It’s raised quite well」

Yuuto’s not interested in rankings but he’s still happy to see his rank go up. Seeing the breakdown of the points, it’s not just him being Asuka’s attendant but also he’s evaluated from his individual work at the imperial guards.

「Ah, isn’t that amazing? Even the imperial guards are about to say about the sense of incompatibility」

「I-Is that so? Well, the ranking doesn’t really matter to me」

Thunderbolt suddenly said something carelessly. It’s embarra.s.sing so Yuuto casually put away his certificate.

「Ooh, Yuuto and Asuka. That’s a certificate isn’t it? How’s it Yuuto? Didn’t it go up a lot?」

When the two is about to return, a familiar voice jumped into Yuuto’s ear.

Turning around, Risty is walking with a certificate on one hand.

「Ah, Captain. …Captain also got a certificate?

Yuuto curiously tilted his head towards the grinning Risty. When you go to Risty’s ranking, the order won’t fluctuate that much.

Since there’s no problem in the certificate in particular, Yuuto turned to the paper on Risty’s right hand with great interest.

「Ah you see. There’s no change in the ranking but there’s a change in the point dependent allowance. Since I have planned a big shopping, I checked the financial status」

「Oh, that feels like an adult isn’t it?」

Contrary to the hero job in the country, Yuuto’s face glow from Risty’s realistic talk.

Yuuto doesn’t even think about those kind of troublesome things.1

He’s living in Asuka’s mansion after all, even the maid is Asuka’s. For Yuuto, the salary he gets usually ends drunk and eaten by the end of the month.

「I don’t get tax and expenditures wellー」

「What? That’s no good, you have to do that properly. Even if you’re a hero, what’s taken will be taken」

Yuuto felt uneasy when he heard Risty. He actually leaves the appropriation of the expenditures to Sasha. Though he can say「Since she’s doing it well」he may still suffer unexpected loss.

「What a helpless guy. Okay, I’ll be teaching you. What about tonight? I’m off duty tomorrow after all」

「Eh? W-What should I do?」

Being urged by Risty, Yuuto’s heartbeat jumped. Speaking of, recently, Risty neglects expeditions recently.

However, Asuka frowned and broke in between the two people.

「It’s fine. I’ll be the one teaching Yuuto」

Pus.h.i.+ng Risty Asuka accustom her throat like a dog.2

Towards Asuka not hiding her blood thirst unlike usual, Risty narrowed her eyes.

「What’s wrong, Asuka? You shouldn’t have time for that」

「I’m telling you to not be aroused in front of the people」

Though she didn’t pull out the red sword like before, Asuka’s face is telling「I’m angry」

There’s no need to meddle with Yuuto.

It’s just that she can’t endure him being washed away in front of her. Furthermore there are people walking in the castle. Asuka growls as if she doesn’t want to be defeated.

「I thought of this for a long time. Speak frankly. Yuuto is treasure tool of me only」

「Oh? What a coincidence. I am Yuuto’s toy」

Risty made an unexpected return with a cool face and Asuka’s eyes turned narrow.

Seeing the dog tag on Asuka’s right hand, Risty laughed dauntlessly.

「It’s fine isn’t it? I also got wet when I saw your duel with Thunerbolt. I’ll play with you to the extent you won’t die…」

「Daaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa! Could you stop this bulls.h.i.+t!」

Yuuto shouted to force his way through Risty who’s stretching her hand on Risty’s 『Ruler of Sunrise』that’s on her waist.

Asuka and Risty’s eyes opened wide from Yuuto’s unusually loud voice.

「The fight with Thunderbolt-san was inevitable but I won’t let comrades fight again anymore! If you want it by all means then I won’t talk to anyone anymore!」

Risty’s mouth opened wide as Yuuto scolds her. Risty was teary eyed but Yuuto still emphasized his glance.

「I-I’m sorry Yuuto. D-D-Don’t throw me away. I’ll do anything」

「Daaaaa! That’s not it!」

The front of the counter got noisy so the surrounding people were 「What, What?」and looked at them

To be frank, there’s a strange rumor about Yuuto that begins to spread. No, it’s a off the mark rumor.

It can be said that Yuuto is bad for this and that but Yuuto has no intention to let it turn into a fight.

Friends mustn’t hurt each other.

「Eeeehn, that’s what he said. Blehー」

「Asuka-sama too! Aren’t you getting hot tempered?!」

Yuuto also shouted at Asuka who’s stirring up Risty with a strange face. As his relation with Asuka advances, The jealousy of Asuka increases.

This might be something joyous but they’re not lovers, Yuuto’s real feelings is also for everyone to get along.

「W-what? Why are you angry at me…Or rather, I absolutely have no problems even if you don’t talk to me ever again!」

Asuka looked the other way with her blus.h.i.+ng face. Even Yuuto knows that so he frowned. Asuka isn’t his lover in particular.

「Yuuto, I’ll be troubled.」 So please be nice」

「Ah, you’re doing it again」

They screaming noisily in front of the counter. Yuuto was at his wits’ end as the gallery had gathered in the hallway of the castle.

「Oyaa? Isn’t that Risty?」

At that time. When Yuuto felt abandoning the two people he’s looking at, a voice of a fresh man was heard from the side.

「…N, who?」

The three noisy people stopped for a moment due to that voice. Yuuto tilts his head from the source of the voice and Asuka straightened her spin as soon as she saw the source of the voice. Risty frowned in hate.

An unexpected beautiful man was standing in front of the three people.

「You’re also beautiful today Risty. …Well, not as beautiful as me」

When Risty looked at him, the man absent-mindedly looked at the hand gla.s.s on his right hand. The man sighed and made a high pitched cheer.

Looking at it, the girls that are above 10th are surrounding a man and making a noise. The beautiful man on the hall was too late to notice Yuuto that’s surrounded by the women.

‘What the h.e.l.l is with him?’, Yuuto looked up the suspicious looking handsome man.

He’s tall. Around 190cm. The man who keeps looking on the mirror is being watched by Yuuto vigilantly.

「Pergiman. You and the town girls again…」

「What’s with this brat?」

「Please don’t speak to Per-sama familiarly」

「Get out tiny b.r.e.a.s.t.s」

「Wait, what’s with that appearance? s.l.u.t?」

「Looks stupid. That can’t be called a child」

Risty called out to the man named Pergiman with a disgusted face. A crowd of girls pushed out Risty.

Not minding Risty that’s staggering, Pergiman still gazed at the mirror.

「…Beautiful. A charm magic is out of question」

「Kyaaaaaa! Per-sama murmuuuurrrreeed!!」

「Per-sama who worries about his own beauty is so wonderful!!」

The surrounding women screamed when they heard Pergiman speak. Asuka and Yuuto was shaken from the sudden scream.

「…U!!?」
