Different Lives Former Candidate Hero
Ch. 08 – Pets & New Home
After returning to the inn, Arpshow and Fenlys locked themselves in the room, and made love for 2 days in a row.
“.....Indeed I said you can do what you like ...... but, don't overdo it ..”
Fenlys are pouting on the bed.
“I'm sorry if you don't like it..”.
“...... No, that's not what I mean .....”
Fenyls who heard Arpshow's words blushed, then flanked her neck with her arms.
Like that, the two of them continued their exciting relationship.
This time, Arpshow canceled the Shapeshifting Magic she had described herself, revealing her original appearance to Fenlys.
“Do you really trust me so much ..”
Fenlys was very touched.
In the end, the two of them never left their room. Except when it's time to eat, and they do nothing but make love ..
Morning of the 5th day …
They finally stepped out and went to the city center.
In order to gather information, and to find work, the two headed to the Guild.
As they entered the building, they were surrounded by a barrage of noisy whispers.
No one spoke out loudly, but almost everyone was gossiping about how the Hero army had just been defeated.
The higher-ups had already spread silencing among the information dealers, but it did not make the rumors fade away.
“..... Well, it's no surprise with that Blonde Hero.”
“You think so?”
“Iya. He did have strength, but he did not have courage or ambition. I only felt arrogance, delusions, and pride in him. ”
Saying so, Fenlys steals a look at the Arpshow.
A little blushed, he then turned around.
“...... That person cannot compare with Master..”
Seeing that, Arpshow could not help but smile.
“I'm glad to hear it, but can you call me your Husband?”
“…………”
Embarrassed, Fenlys threw his eyes down, his cheeks turning red.
Considering the fact that he was caught using his real name, since there were many people who knew him, the two decided to register him in the Guild under the name “Lys”.
When they head to the quest board to find a job …
“It's an emergency! There's a Horde of Psycho Bears in the north, we need people who can subdue them! The reward per bear today will be three times! ”
the receptionist lady who announced loudly to everyone.
At first, everyone cheered happily, but, the excitement quickly faded.
“..... Oi, isn't that a request that destroys the army of Heroes?”
“...... I think so ...... The prize looks very attractive, but is it worth a try?”
Such whispers began to spread throughout the Guild lobby.
Indeed, this rumor was not wrong, it was the same request that destroyed the Hero army.
After destroying the Hero, the Soul Spirits of the Psycho Bears rose drastically, and they began attacking the farmers in the rural areas in the north, causing serious damage.
“….. Isn't this for Heroes at times like this?”
“...... I heard he's gone South again after returning to the castle.”
“..... I can understand if it is a Demon King, but this person escaped from a savage beast ...”.
After listening to all sorts of whispers in the Guild. Arpshow and Lys leave the building.
“Because the job paid a lot, why don't we try it?”
“There is no need for Mast — I mean, Su-Su-Su-Suami-sama alone takes care of something as low as Psycho Bears. I'll hunt them for you ”
“Actually, I want to try Magic. Besides, I can't let my wife fight alone. ”
“IS ... WIFE !?”
Suddenly struck with an unexpected word, Lys' entire body became glowing.
“...... You don't like being my wife ?”
“..... T-No ..... umm ....... Well ….. If something like that, it's my honor, or should I say ..... I'm really happy ...”.
With a blushing red face, Lys nodded in embarrassment.
After which, the two of them headed to the Equipment Shop.
Although Lys did not need a weapon, by utilizing her speed and strength, she would probably be stolen from other adventurers if she did not carry a single weapon.
As for the Arpshow, he changed his Witch-style appearance to a Swordsman, carrying a simple long sword on his back.
“Then, this is also .... although it is not a big problem.”
Saying so, Arpshow placed a ring with Speed-Buff, on Lys' left ring finger.
“I'll be fine even without this kind of buff, anyway?”
Lys stared at the ring in her left hand with a puzzled expression.
Realizing his reaction, Arpshow explained:
“For us Humans, it is customary for married couples to wear that ring on the left ring finger as proof of their marriage.”
Arpshow then placed a ring of the same design on her left ring finger while smiling at Lys.
“Create that? Heeh ...... WAIT ....... proof ........ proof ....... Married .......... HAH !? ”
After finally understanding the meaning of Arpshow's words, Lys' face flushed red as she raised her voice in surprise, still inside the shop.
Hearing her screams, other customers began to gather with curious expressions.
After apologizing for the matter, the two of them left the store.
While leaving, Lys held on tightly to the Arpshow, staring at the ring she had just received with the happiest face in the world.
After traveling North, Arpshaw and Lys quickly run into some Psycho Bears – and start killing him.
Setting up his Gravitational Field, Arpshow crushed the bones of the bears, knocking them to the ground with the weaker of the magic he used when fighting Lys.
Soon after, they found an abandoned house a little further north. Treating the house as a base, the two continue to subdue the Psycho Bears who live in the fields and destroyed forests nearby.
Half a day later, they got nearly 20 bears. After slightly considering the task of transporting the bears to the city, they decided to stop the hunt.
During their hunt, there was one Soul Bear that behaved abnormally.
Not showing any hostility towards Lys or Arpshow, and it was lying on the ground, stomach, declaring its surrender.
“... On the one hand, this man is brave.”
Since Lys had no intention of killing something that had already given up, Arpshow decided to make Psycho Bear their pet.
Using the ‘Taming’ skill, he puts Psycho Bear under control, and in addition:
– Prohibit any act of violence
– Put it under absolute submission for his order
After casting a lot of magic, Arpshow makes sure he can bring the bear back to town safely.
However, thinking that the bear's appearance could cause problems, Arpshow creates a pair of large canals with magic for bears to wear. The result: now it looks like Bearman.
As for its name, the two called it Sabear.
Since no one had finally returned to the empty house, they decided to spend the night here, mostly because it would be troublesome to bring Sabear back to the inn.
Although he set up several layers of Magic Defense around the house, in two places 17 dead Psycho Bears were the victims of a magical trap the next day.
Using magic to collect some wood from the forest, Arpshow creates a large wagon and loads all the hunted and trapped bears; Sabear is tasked with pulling it back to the city.
Because the numbers were too many, the Arpshow made Gravity Reduction Magic in the wagon, allowing Sabear to pull it easily.
When they arrived at the Guild, a large crowd formed around the wagon.
“...... Ka-You two hunt down ...... Psycho Bears this?
Smiling at the receptionist
“I am indeed proficient in magic, after all.” Arpshow says.
Arpshow was pretty lucky this time.
“Oh, I have a question. There was an empty house near the edge of the northern forest, was there currently an owner? ”
Arpshow asked the receptionist.
“Many villages and settlements in the North have been abandoned due to Psycho Bears, so I'm pretty sure it will belong to one of those people.”
“The house will be a very convenient base for hunting, you know ... is it possible for me to buy it?”
“I understand .... let me check that. It would be great for a Guild to have adventurers as strong as the two of you to set up bases around there. ”
Saying so, the receptionist woman ran to the town hall.
Lys and Arpshow decided to have lunch in the Guild dining room, where they chatted with other adventurers and toyed with Sabear. Finally, the receptionist ran back.
“I checked at City Hall, and the property foreclosure procedure has been completed, which means it is possible for Aprshow-san to register your name there. Guilds will bear the registration fee, so please lend me your strength from now on! ”
Saying so, he smiled enthusiastically.
These two people were strong enough to subdue a large number of Psycho Bears, which even the Hero army could not handle, so, before they changed their minds, it was clear, The Guild did everything in their power to please them.
“Alright, let's buy some items for our new home.”
In response to Arpshow's words, Lys nodded with a brilliant smile.
