157 – Lost Lamb (05)

”Is that really it? Knowing the clue to the holy sword…”

It didn’t suit my temper to repeat the same thing over and over again, but this time it was an issue, so I said it again to confirm.

”Yes, that’s right. I know where the holy sword you are looking for is now.”

A quick reply that does not allow even a moment of magic. His unwavering voice was overflowing with firm confidence.

While we were in the middle of a scuffle with the hero, a stranger suddenly broke into our relationship and revealed his identity as ‘Dabi’, the city’s intelligence officer.

short haircut. Wearing thin light armor that emphasizes movement.

It was difficult to guess the gender at first because of the neutral impression that those elements gave off.

At the same time as her appearance, I was able to realize belatedly that this person was a woman thanks to the warrior’s giddiness that became noticeably bloodier.

The warrior, who has recently increased his vigilance, can determine the gender of people I’ve met throughout the day based on smell, and if it’s a woman, he’ll react as sensitively as he does now.

Contrary to the bright smile on the outside, the hostility lurking beneath the film was indescribably gloomy.

”Are you a beginner? Then you wouldn’t know what’s delicious in this city. Food is made the way I like it? By the way, the ale at this store is particularly good. If you like alcohol, you will never regret it when you drink. aunt! Three ales here!”

We haven’t said anything yet.

The woman, who had already finished all of our orders, smiled smirkingly.

It was her suggestion that we chose a nearby pub as the venue for the conversation.

It was impossible to drink alcohol in the middle of the day, even in priestly clothes, so at first, of course, I tried to refuse.

However, I reluctantly followed her persuasion, not her persuasion that it was not necessary to drink alcohol at the bar.

No, because you don’t drink.

Verification of the authenticity of the information has not yet begun, but I don’t know why I end up thinking that it has already been misinterpreted.

”What a presumptuous word! The introduction is done, so let’s start with the main story! Please explain quickly and concisely!”

The hero, who rarely showed an annoyed expression, resolutely rang his throat.

His gaze was looking straight ahead, but his body couldn’t stay still for a moment. It seemed that he was looking at a puppy with a tasty snack in front of his nose.

I could roughly guess why the hero was reacting so impatiently.

It is probably because of the impatience to fulfill the manly promise that was passed by snatching just a moment ago.

Candy Kiss.

It was an unscrupulous proposal that would not be enough even if you dropped the cold hearted command, if it had been until now that the upper limit of skinship that could be granted as a wish was limited to a kiss on the forehead.

My judgment was clouded for a moment at the pitiful appearance of the hero, and I inadvertently accepted the offer.

The hero, who was pressing down on the desk with both hands and pulling his hips back, squirmed lightly.

If the current hero had a tail, wouldn’t it be spinning like a propeller?

”Warrior. Please sit down…”

”Hut! sorry! Father! I’ll stop again!”

As soon as my words ran out, the warrior-nim hurriedly took his seat.

I felt very proud that he followed my words so well, but at the same time, I began to worry little by little about the future of the warrior who was gradually losing his dignity as a human being.

When I told him to sit, he sat down, when I told him to wait, he waited incessantly for me, and when I saw the warrior who gave me a hand when asked, I couldn’t easily raise my head because I felt guilty as if I was doing something I shouldn’t have done.

”By the way, the warrior is prettier and younger looking in real life, right? He looks much younger than he used to be. ah! Do you have any secrets to managing something?”

”What!? How the hell do you know that I am a hero!?’

”Warrior. Be still for a moment…”

”Yep! I’ll be there! synthesis!”

This time too, the warrior-nim shut his mouth as I was afraid to run out of words.

From that clear-eyed way of thinking that had caused the uproar by the village roadside and assumed that it would not have been discovered, my long-lost innocence shimmered like a mirage, but now was not the time to pursue such trivial sentiments.

Even a necklace that hinders perception isn’t all-purpose.

Even if you look at the same picture and find the wrong picture, there are people who can’t find even one, and there are people who see everything at a glance.

Therefore, it was not that surprising that she saw through our identities after seeing the warrior-nim and me arguing.

But the unusual offer she gave us was jaw-droppingly shocking.

”Did you say Mr. Darby? I’m sorry, but as the warrior said earlier. Right now, we don’t have time to eat and drink like this in broad daylight. So, if you’re not rude, can you go straight to the point?”

”Eh~ You’re acting so stiff~ I heard that the priests in the capital are quite open-minded people. Were the rumors rumors? But for something like that, we were hugging each other from the wind in the morning… hmm, well, good Then, as requested, I’ll go straight to the main topic.”

With one hand resting on her chin, she looked into her eyes.

As long as the protection of the warrior did not play its role, there was no other alternative to finding the holy sword, so the only thing we could do now was wander through the places where the holy sword was said to have appeared in the past.

Even after two weeks have passed since then, we have not been able to grasp even a dim afterimage, let alone a small clue, about our present address, and she was the witness who appeared just at the right moment like a light in the darkness.

While the suspicion that it must be groundless rumors of a scammer aiming for a fortune grows, the question of whether there will ever be a human who will try to cheat against a party of warriors who carries the fate of this world is entangled and entangled for some time.

In the end, it was the current situation that reached the conclusion that we should listen to the story at least once.

”I’ll give you a clue about the holy sword. Instead, I want to borrow some of your strength.”

”indeed·····.”

To be honest, I was a little relieved by a suggestion that couldn’t be more clear.

The fact that the other party had a clear purpose to achieve meant that the identity and intention of the trader who was shrouded in a veil could be investigated to some extent.

”like. I will accept that offer. What do you want from us? is it gold Or is it monster extermination? Whatever it is…”

”I want to borrow you.”

”Yes·····?”

”I said I wanted to borrow you.”

Whoop!

Right after those words fell, I reflexively hugged the warrior next to me.

just as expected.

With his feet resting on the desk and his hand on the scabbard, the hero already had a murderous intent that was enough to burn and boil one person.

”Now… What… La… Go…”

”I’m sorry! Now wait! I’ll be back soon. Please wait here for a moment! Darby!”

”Uh, what…”

Leaving behind Mr. Darby, whose body and mind froze in an instant from the murderous intentions pouring out like water from a twisted faucet, he hurriedly transported the hero to a place out of sight.

I was going to take out the bell if the resistance was strong, but the warrior who held me by the wrist unexpectedly followed me obediently.

”Warrior! What are you talking about! In addition!”

”That’s right! But!”

When I pushed harder than usual for the hero who almost committed a catastrophe, the hero looked up at me with a distorted face and questioned me in tears.

No matter how much he said it in a somewhat misunderstood tone.

According to common sense, wanting to hire a priest would be something a person with a disease or wound that cannot be cured would say.

To accept those words so one-dimensionally and immediately try to pull out the sword.

Although I was aware that the warrior-sama’s obsession with me had gotten even worse lately, I never dreamed that it would be to this extent.

”Because I will share with him and come back. The hero is going to the inn for a while…”

”I absolutely can’t! Leaving the priest and the wicked man who might be targeting the priest’s chastity alone with the priest! That much is unacceptable, even if it takes a knife to reach my throat!”

”Hero…”

The hero who hurriedly embraced my body, buried his lips in my chest, and rang his neck in succession.

A hand tied tightly around my waist, shaking without rest.

From the fluttering breath that moistened the neck, the size of the anxiety the warrior was holding right now was conveyed intact.

”Hero…”

”Father, even if you lack awareness of how easily you have a body that can easily enchant women, you are too lacking! Even at this moment! You’ll be thrilled to learn how much restraint I have with my desires!”

The eccentrics who would have such feelings after seeing my ragged body are the saints and warriors on this earth. And it’s probably only Downa.

That kind of gourd came up to my throat, but I thought it would only hurt my mouth if I said it, so I swallowed it again.

How did the innocent warrior who seemed to be looking at a pure white drawing paper end up like this?

Maybe it’s because of me

I tried to ignore the remorse and guilt that plagued my thoughts, and spoke to the hero again.

”Hero… Please listen to me… He just metaphorically expressed that he wanted my prayers…”

”That’s a lie! It’s a lie! There is no woman in the world who does not have a taste for the bride’s sexy body and thick body scent! Sending the priest right now to that wicked man! It’s like throwing a ripe banana into a monkey cage! never send it! No matter how much the bride asked, this is as much as it is! We can never give up on this!

”ha·····.”

Wrong. It was no longer a situation to be persuaded.

Since the saintess is quiet, is it the hero’s turn this time?

My head was pounding because of the absurd situation that followed another hardship one after another.

can’t do

More than this.

”Hero… Please raise your head for a moment…”

”It’s no use! Never go…? Umm…?”

At that moment, the hero’s roaring eloquence stopped like a lie.

The reason was no different.

It was because I had my lips, the warrior’s lips tightly closed.

Oh, I don’t know now. Be it what it is.
