Abandoned Retired Warrior Decides to Return to Farming

chapter 2



Devil. In these peaceful times, the word came too unrealistic.

Belgeron was shocked by her words as if she had been hit in the head with a hammer.

The devil, the devil Surely he didn’t rant about not waking up for 100 years?

Aurelia unwittingly gripped the parchment and grinded her teeth.

“In addition to Lowe and his comrades, gather all those who have fought to subdue the Demon King in the past. Right Now!”

As soon as they heard her order, the two ministers ran faster than ever.

Aurelia grabbed her chest, which was pounding with anxiety, and collapsed into her chair.

“… Low is not enough.”

Of course, among the warriors he had seen so far, Lowe stood out as the most talented.

However, he had only just become a hero, and he still lacked practical experience.

Even if he was young enough to enter the academy next month, it would have been the death of a dog if he had met the demon king right away.

“…Cael.”

She brought out a name that had been forgotten for over five years.

He was the second most talented warrior after Lowe, and he had the experience of defeating the Demon King three times and even sealing it.

“We had some problems with our breakup, but now is not the time for both of us to discuss that.”

If this continent is occupied by the Demon King, it will be difficult for him too. You only need to block the Demon King until Lowe grows up.

With that in mind, she gave an order to the servant who was waiting outside the door.

“Scramble all the troops you can mobilize and find out where Kael is. Right Now!”

“Yes Yes. All right!”

Why was the seal suddenly released? She bit her nails in nervousness and then shook her head.

It is clear that nothing will happen this time. You can pass it on like it was five years ago.

Believing that, she leaned back in her chair.

“I’m really sorry. Lady.”

The village chief bowed his head and pressed the back of my head at the same time.

Then, Aerith smiled in embarrassment and waved her hand.

“Oh, no. I’m fine, don’t worry.”

I said so, but she glanced at me with her trembling eyes.

ha. I would make such a stupid mistake.

Saint Aerith. If I remember correctly, he is the same age as Lowe, so he would have turned 16 to enter the academy this year.

In the first book, he was specially admitted to the academy by the cathedral with the meaning of broadening his knowledge, so he met him for the first time there.

In other words, according to the original story, she should not have come to this town, but should be preparing to enter the academy next month.

“But, why is it in a place like this…”

Apart from feeling sorry for her, I questioned her while being wary.

She, who shouldn’t be here, is sitting in front of me now.

It must be because of me who possessed the hero.

In addition, if she, the heroine of the original story, is here, there is a high probability that Law and Aurelia are also related.

“that is······.”

“Hmm. Hey Cael. Talk to me for a moment.”

“yes? Suddenly?”

Without answering my question, the mayor suddenly left the house.

No matter who looked at it, it was an act to protect her, so I followed him without saying a word.

“What is the matter?”

When I asked, he answered looking at her at the window.

“Like you. It’s something everyone should know, but it’s something you can’t tell anyone.”

“·················ogue.”

The moment I saw that her left arm was missing, I had a rough guess.

Originally, her limbs were intact and she was loved by everyone for her beautiful appearance.

Of course, it was still so beautiful that I was blown away.

But the villagers, including myself, were perplexed by her condition now.

“So I’m going to ask you to do that for me.”

“Is she supposed to live in this town too?”

“okay. Your body and your heart will be more broken, so let me help you so that you don’t feel uncomfortable. Still, it would be easier to depend on you, the hero, than us.”

“So you are next door to me.”

My house was right next to her house.

Seeing this, the village chief nodded, patted my shoulder and returned to attend the village meeting.

When I came back, Aerith trembled.

He looked sickly and anxious like a chick sold in front of an elementary school.

As I closed the door, she looked up at me with anxious eyes and asked cautiously.

“Hey, what about the mayor……?”

“I went back first.”

“Ugh······.”

As if she had been sentenced to death, she slowly lowered her head with a blank face.

You snatched your wrist and left it to me and bounced. It will sound like this to her.

“I’m next door, so I’ll take care of the saint from now on.”

“Ugh…….”

A sound of blatant denial came out of her mouth at the shocking second declaration.

No, this is a bit cliche.

Obviously, I remember seeing a description in the original story that said he was supreme, does not discriminate against people, and smiles at anyone.

But now, she was desperate not to make eye contact with me with a face that looked like she was about to cry at any moment.

As soon as I entered the village, I did that, so I’m on my own.

To reassure her, I politely bowed my head again and apologized.

“I’m really sorry earlier.”

“yes? Oh no. I’m really fine. You apologized earlier, and you said it was a misunderstanding.”

“It was.”

However, contrary to her words, she was still restless and seemed to cry at any moment.

Was Aerith originally such a character? It must have been set up as a sun-like existence that cheers up the party without losing a smile in any situation.

“·················ogue.”

“·················ogue.”

An awkward silence followed. He must have heard that I was a hero, but he didn’t ask me anything. No, to be precise, it was a look that was afraid of being spoken to.

She glanced at the door.

The mayor wants you to come in, or maybe he wants me to leave.

I, too, wanted to go home and lay in bed at this point in time, but there was still something I wanted to ask.

“You must have heard about me from the village chief. Who am I and how did I get here?”

“Ah, I heard the situation. I can’t believe that such a thing happened to that hero Kael…”

“What? It’s just a thing of the past. After that, I am indebted to the mayor and work as a member of this village.”

To get information, you must first tell me about your situation and then approach it step by step.

Even after that, I appealed to my feelings by referring to my painful past.

She also nodded mechanically at first, but at one point she concentrated on my story and comforted me as a saint.

“You’ve been through a lot.”

“haha. How many people in the world don’t have a hard time?”

“yes. But surely the Goddess will be watching over Kael-sama’s unfortunate circumstances.”

“thank you. Just hearing your words is comforting.”

It would have been better if you could give her a thunderbolt instead of just watching her.

When I revealed the difficult situation to others, she suddenly took my hand and comforted me naturally.

Usually, it would be inconvenient to bring out such an awkward and heavy story at the beginning, but it seems to be effective for her as a saint.

We’ve been close like this for a while, and at some point I’ll have to ask her what’s going on.

Other than that, there were a lot of things I wanted to ask about how I came to this village and what happened at the church.

But don’t be in a hurry. When I was about to expound myself and talk about the next story, there was a commotion outside the window.

“Hey. I’ll be late. Let’s all go quickly!”

When I opened the window, the villagers were running to a busy place.

Unstable. I’m already tired of being a saint, but this time, what’s wrong with me?

I grabbed one of the passers-by and asked about the situation.

“What is it, what is it?”

“Cael. A group of warriors are now in front of the village!”

“What?”

“It’s also the most popular elf warrior these days. Come take a look, too!”

He couldn’t hide his excitement and ran again.

ha. After the saint, a warrior. Besides, if it’s an elf hero, it must be Serin bitch.

She was one of the comrades who betrayed me and the princess of the elves.

By the way, there’s no way I didn’t know I was here.

No, I know there is no reason why you would come to me, so it must have been because of Aerith.

In the original story, it was not the time for the two to meet yet, but it had already been a long time since the development was twisted because of me.

In other words, even if the two already knew each other, there was nothing strange about it.

Under that premise, I tried to ask her in detail.

“Saint, maybe a hero has come to pick you up…”

“Uh, why? I was sure no one would find it…”

Naturally, I thought that Law’s party had come to meet her.

But when she heard this, her condition turned pale, like someone who would die soon by anyone.

“Saint…?”

“What am I doing wrong? What the hell did I do?”

When she heard the news that the hero had arrived, she trembled and was more frightened than ever.

Just by looking at the appearance, I could guess that the relationship between the two was no longer the same as the original.
