Chapter 6 (2/2)
「What?」 (Haruto)
Upon Haruto’s questioning, Lora showed a serious expression as she replied
「I have no change of clothes……」 (Lora)
Haruto intuitively thought about it as it wasn’t anything worthover
「You can just wear my clothes」 (Haruto)
「I see, but that would only transfer my stench to your clothes!」 (Lora)
「Who would let that happen, you fool」 (Haruto)
After saying so, they headed to his room Lora stops in front of Haruto’s room
「Is it alright for me to enter your room, won’t I dirty it?」 (Lora)
Saying this, she protested to entering As it was a fact, there were no objections Alone; Haruto fetched a change of clothes, a towel and the bottle of soap He then handed them to Lora
「This is soap It is siood wash down, okay」 (Haruto)
「This is soap……」 (Lora)
Lora sees soap for the first time She sniffs it
「The hot water is ready!!」 (Hannah)
Hannah’s voice echoes through the halls
「Now, hurry off」 (Haruto)
「Y-yes」 (Lora)
Lora goes to the courtyard Haruto descended the stair and then he saw Hannah
「About your lodging fee, I will omit Lora’s portion as she is a slave What sort of inn would this be if such a claim was demanded?」 (Hannah)
Hannah made a wry smile
「Ah, thanks for not charging me twice for the same room」 (Haruto)
Haruto was relieved to hear this Now all he has to worry about is the food expense that has now doubled
「How is it that you were able to si a slave is nore citizen, you know」 (Hannah)
「That isn’t so Thanks to this, I’m nearly coinless」 (Haruto)
「I see Since you are a good person, you won’t be hearing any complaints from me」 (Hannah)
While Hannah was talking, Lora had returned fro
「It see for lunch now」 (Haruto)
「Ah, understood Do you want hot water tonight also, I can have some prepared?」 (Hannah)
「Yes, please Now then, I’m off」 (Haruto)
Haruto bids his farewell to Hannah and takes Lora with him to have lunch
「Haruto-san…… these are too baggy」 (Lora)
「That is because you’re small, it can’t be helped」 (Haruto)
At Undine, Haruto ordered two servings of fish ht their order
「Haruto-san!! May I eating this?」 (Lora)
「Ah, yes, eat up!」 (Haruto)
While looking overjoyed, Lora begins to eat She shows good table manners
「Hey, okyaku-san Who is that girl?」 (Marceau)
「Well, she is……」 (Haruto)
Haruto explained the circumstances to Marceau Marceau has a shocked expression
「Okyaku-san…… is that not being too soft-hearted?」 (Marceau)
「Well, I just have to earn back that 25 million……」 (Haruto)
While Haruto was talking with Marceau, the sound of tableware being placed down is heard Lora had finished eating
「You eat way too fast…… did you even properly taste your food?」 (Haruto)
「M time since I had a decent meal, I remembered to properly chewI have eaten in the last 3 years」 (Lora)
「Should I accept that as you praising ? Umm, yeah, that’s quite heavy……」 (Marceau)
Because the mood had become delicate, Haruto hurried to finished his meal and then left the shop
When Lora exited the shop,
「Alright!」 (Lora)
She fired herself up and then turned to look at Haruto
「Haruto-san!!」 (Lora)
「W-what is it?」 (Haruto)
Haruto instinctively took up his guard
「It has been a long ti so, I will tell you about my past!!」 (Lora)
After declaring it, she began to speak
「I see, I got the general idea Nevertheless, it is quite the heavy burden」 (Haruto)
Lora has had a hard life If this was japan, her story could be made into a top documentary
「Why are you telling me this?」 (Haruto)
Upon Haruto’s response, Lora smiled and then said,
「You saved me, and I didn’t want to show dishonesty towards you Anyhow, the past is already in the past It wasn’t all terrible」 (Lora)
If that is being dishonest, then it would not be honest of him to not also talk about his past Haruto decided to tell her about his background
「Then let me speak about myself Truthfully, I am from another world」 (Haruto)
When Haruto finished explaining his story, Lora’s jaw dropped
「To be honest, I can’t believe it…… certainly, Haruto’s speech & actions are, and if I think about it, the soap does put everything into perspective Is it alright if I as 2 questions? The first question, how is it you are able to speak another world’s language; is that not strange to you?」 (Lora)
Haruto himself doesn’t know the answer But, he does know that a mysterious power is at work
「Well, soe for e by being taught it once Also, I a behind the words they speak」 (Haruto)
Lora showed a surprised expression when she heard this
「Thebehind a person’s words, do youbehind what I say? I would like you to try using it now, please」 (Lora: Meat would be good, tonight)
「Ah, you are thinking about meat」 (Haruto)
Upon Haruto’s reply, Lora’s eyes sparkled
「That is a Next ti it up at the library」 (Lora)
When Haruto heard the word “fairy’s blessing”, he tilted his head He has never heard that term before
「What is it?」 (Haruto)
「About that, I don’t quite knohat it islike a special ability You were able to receive the fairy’s blessing because you are capable By the way, I have aI can smell the scent of profit」 (Lora)
Haruto had gotten used to this unusual world and he wasn’t the less bit surprised to hear about fairies
「My second question Do you wish to return home?」 (Lora)
Being troubled, Haruto scratched his head and then thought about hoould answer the question
「Ah, sorry It is only natural that you would want to return That was insensitive of me……」 (Lora)
Lora interpreted Haruto’s silence as hier at her
「No, it is fine I not mad Certainly, one would wish to return if one could But, I don’t really have a reason to return」 (Haruto)
Hearing an unexpected answer, Lora’s eyes opened wide
「Eh, What do you mean? But does that not mean you won’t be able to meet your mother or father, anymore?」 (Lora)
「Well you see…… both my parents die when I was 5 years old」 (Haruto)
Lora showed a dumbfounded expression It is no surprised as she was told this without warning In Lora’s case, it was obvious that she becaar after her parents’ death, but Haruto’s confession was just too sudden
「All 4 of randparents have passed away fros nor any other family members That is way, I have no reason to return」 (Haruto)
For a while, the silence continued The one to break the silence was Lora
「Heavy,」 (Lora)
「It is nothing compared to your hardshi+ps My parents passed ahen I was still a child, thus, I’m not particularly sad」 (Haruto)
「No, no, is that not all the more reason why? The memories of my parents have re like that? In randfather on my mother’s side……」 (Lora)
When did it becoic? Eventually, it ended with both sides ad each story had their fair share of hardshi+ps

「Yes, likewise I may be incompetent but please take care of me」 (Lora)
