<h4>Chapter 383: Hero Question</h4>


    So, I made a new cor for Miril.


    “Is that a new cor? Whose is it?”


    “Ah, you didn’t know about that one yet, Savory”


    I exined to her, who looked at the cor I was ying with thoughtfully.


    “……Well, it doesn’t look like the power of the full moon is the reason, so I decided to make a cor for Miril. That’s it”


    “……Haa. So, why are you making a difficult face? Is it possible that you’ve calmed down after all? She’s already obtained your word in the presence of Dianne, so you can’t just say it’s not true now”


    “No, that’s not what I’m questioning”


    Yes. To be honest, even if I forced her to put the cor on her without an offer, I feel like she would be quite satisfied. That’s not it……I was about to say that when Neia appeared at the tavern.


    “Ah, excuse me Master, just a minute. Hoi hoi”


    “Can I have something good to eat, please?”


    “Ahaha, okay”


    Is that alright with you, Savory? Well, it’s not umon to order 「Leave it to the owner」 if it’s a restaurant you’re familiar with.


    “It’s a rare asion when we’re on time”


    Neia smiles at me as she ces her hat on the counter. The crossbow corps members casually approached Neia.


    “Hello, Neia-san. I heard you beat that 100-man special dutymander Becker by punching him?”


    “Really? I heard that 100-manmander Becker is as strong as 100-manmander Dianne”


    “Idiot, he’s no match for 100-manmander Dianne”


    “No. They’re not on a level we understand”


    “Bronson’s words are very convincing. Or is it 10-man captain Bronson?”


    “Hahaha, well, you’d better get used to it. I don’t mean to be a prude, but it’s the military code”


    “Mmm, even though you’re Bronson, you seem to be good at something!”


    “100-manmander Isaac, give him a little squeeze! You’re still strong, aren’t you!?”


    “No, hey, even though I don’t have a sword, 100-manmander Isaac is a bit waa!?”


    Bronson, who was targeted for some reason, was grabbed by Isaac, who was chewing on a ball of leafy greens beside him. Bronson flinches.


    “Heehee, Bronson is still not ready for this. Rinne and Anzeros would beat me with their bare hands. You’re an ace knight, you can’t be bothered with amon rearguard”


    “No, please don’t say that you shouldn’t be with those people or that your wife is stronger than you!?”


    “I, I can’t believe it. That guy is seriously a genius”


    The other crossbowmenugh with a thud at Isaac, who is in bad shape even though he’s the one who’s catching him. The friendly nature of these guys is a bit overwhelming, as they quickly start to be more congenial with Neia involved. After smiling back, Neia shows some concern for her nose (which seems to have healed) and then looks a little annoyed when she sees the cor I have in my hand.


    “Are you going to add more……?”


    “Again……well, you’re not wrong”


    “……U, Umm”


    Neia fiddles with her hat with aplicated look on her face.


    “As expected……I still find it a little hard to understand……”


    “?”


    “Ah, no. The first thing thates to mind is that the word ve is a term for a person who has no freedom……no matter how many women around Smithson-san have their own unique way of saying it, the fact that they wants? to be one themselves is a bit of a surprise”


    “We, Well……that is, yes”


    Once again, she is absolutely right. The ves are never the ones who want to be ves themselves.


    “Nyaa. you’re going to have a delicious meal”


    Cute, who came running, puts silver pears and diced meat stir-fry in front of Neia. No, it seems that it’s more delicious if you stir-fry it with silver pear pulp than if you eat it with a bad sauce. I haven’t eaten it yet.


    “Hey, you don’t really use the word your order is ready, do you?”


    Savory willeter and warn her.


    “Nya? Savory-senpai, what did you say the other day?”


    “I told you that it was just a joke for those who are close to you. You have to say 『Thank you for waiting』 to your customers”


    “Nyu”


    Cute is a little dissatisfied. Maybe it’s embarrassing to be imitated, but Savory smiles embarrassedly. Neia nced at the two of them wearing my cors.


    “May I ask you something? You both became ves……yourselves, right?”


    “Yes, that’s right”


    “Nyaa”


    “……Didn’t you ever think about facing Smithson-san from a more normal standpoint?”


    “Haa……I didn’t care about that, but I had heard a lot that Master would basically make a female ve and never let her go if he was involved with a woman”


    “Hey, what do you mean by basically? No, I got the gist of it”


    Savory’s rhetoric would be Phaser’s rhetoric. Yes. There was no point in going into it.


    “Did you think it was okay?”


    “Emm……I don’t know if you’ll understand”


    Savory puts a finger to her temple.


    “Master is something special for us young forest elves”


    “Special……?”


    “It goes without saying that he is of a different race and has the aspect of being a different element. Let’s see, if we were to put it this way, you could say that a person from a strange country made a king and a minister bow down to him. I don’t know if I was able to convey how amazing he was, but he was the one who did it”


    “……Haa”


    Now that you mention it, is the n meeting really something like royalty? And from Irina’s point of view, the blessing is never something light, yes. That’s certainly the conversion.


    “I think you can understand that it’s notparable to the guys in the neighborhood. And on top of that, all the guys in the neighborhood were such a bunch of ckers that it was hard to deal with women. Is it OK so far?”


    “……S, Somehow”


    “The superhero Smithson-san is not just saying that it’s tough to deal with women, he’s a dragon. The rumor is that he has a passionate and intense love affair with women, including two dragons. Do you understand this bnce? Do you wait for hundreds of years for a man of your own tribe, who is not only shy, weak, passive and few in number, toe to his senses, or do you nod your head when a hero of a different tribe, who has once made the n leaders bow down to him and who also wants him with all his might, whispers to you that he wants you to be his woman?”


    “Umm……”


    “Well family is important and there is the risk of being kicked out of your own n if you mess up. But if you have an umbre of dragons and Dianne that are more powerful than the forest ns and you can protect them in the territory and they can give you a fulfilling life as a woman, then……well, I’m inclined to go for it”


    I didn’t mean to say that, but objectively speaking, the dragons and Dianne are certainly powerful guardians and my territory is guaranteed by them.


    “I, Indeed……I see, there is also the problem of men being weak……”


    Neia nodded and munched on her stir-fried meat.


    “Besides, we of the gold n are originally polygamous ants. If I’m not good enough, I won’t be able to say luxury even if I’m the third or fourth wife of those shoppy men. Of course, if I be ate wife, my position is low”


    “……That’s……maybe it’s not attractive. I don’t have a clear-cut marriage in Kalwin, so I don’t really feel it……”


    “Hee. That’s surprising”


    And what about Cute?


    “Originally, our colony didn’t have any men, and the asional travelers who wandered into our colony became like guests over there on the day of the full moon, and ended up running away, nya”


    “…………”


    Keel was still moving like a moving corpse.


    “Master, he does naughty things to us, but he doesn’t hurt us. He even strokes us”


    “……The values of cat beasts were, well……yeah, that seems to be somewhat good enough”


    Neia seems to have given up trying to understand the strangely simple sensibilities of cat beasts.


    “Each of them has their own circumstances to ept……female ves, or rather than Smithson-san’s……you know, his power as a man and then his dominance……no, his protection”


    “Well, that’s a dry way of putting it. I’m sure that even though Master was very energetic, it’s true that he couldn’t feel relieved with just that”


    “In our colony, my aunt said, 『You can’t go wrong if you follow that one』”


    ……Indeed. For some reason, I thought that elves and cat beasts were being enved a little too casually these days, but it wasn’t just me personally, but the supportive strength of the senior female ves was also a boost. The original question was from Neia, but I’m learning a few things too. I don’t think a girl who doesn’t like you would go out of her way to be a female ve……but La and the others were a big part of why I thought it was a possibility. ……Also, I guess it’s significant that I’m a Breakcore favorite from the elf territory point of view. And as long as she feels that way, at least the red n can’t cut me out, I guess.


    “……But why do you ask that? To be honest, I think it’s enough for us to ept it ourselves”


    “That is……emm, that. I’m also strongly advised by Smithson-san to be a female ve……but I still feel ufortable……so I was curious to know what kind of state of mind I should be in to ept it”


    “I hope that helps. I’m not sure if you have any prospects for male rtionships after you return, Neia-san?”


    “…………”


    Neia stops moving her fork and looks a little sad. Then, with a slightly forced smile, she suddenly said something strange to me.


    “If I were Faria……maybe I would have be Smithson-san’s female ve if he had seduced me. Something like that”


    “Eh, no, even if you say that


    I mean, I don’t know if I should be talking about my own mother-inw that way. And when I suddenly realized that the crossbowmen around me were quietly staring at me.


    “Wh, What is it, gentlemen?”


    Bronson silently folded his hands and held them at his waist and Williams, also silently, dashed toward Bronson from a distance. Using his hands as a springboard, he leaps up to the high ceiling, somersaults and kicks me with both feet.


    “Deatttthhh!!”


    “What the hell are you doing out of nowhere!?”


    The flying Williams was caught again by Isaac, but if it had been a direct hit, Neia’s meal would have blown up all over the counter and she would have been in a very sad state of affairs. ……I mean, if you can do tricks like that, you should aim for the infantry.
