The Hero Who Saved the World Was Reborn As A Beautiful Girl

Episode 2 Lapis and Karin

"dandang……"

"wake up?"

In response to my words, the falling asleep jumped like a bounce. And he seemed to be moving his hand to his waist and taking out his sword, but his hand only cut through the sky. A woman who glared at me without hiding the color of tension. However, the tense atmosphere did not last long. Because the woman's stomach let out a terrible sound and complained of hunger.

Guuuuu ~! The woman drowned with a pitiful face, echoing the huge quibbling sound in a small hut. An awkward atmosphere enveloped the area. I tried to open my mouth to tell her something, but she closed without making a sound. I don't remember if it was because I hadn't contacted people for decades or how to deal with it. Then, the woman seemed to have recovered by herself, and she fixed her residence and lowered her head.

"... I'm sorry for my rudeness, even though you seem to be helping me. That ... I'm so sorry and sorry, but a loaf of bread is okay. Can you give me something to eat?"

"No……"

I'm not a demon enough to leave hungry humans, let alone fallen humans. I pulled out the wild boar I had set aside for storage from the underfloor storage box used as a warehouse substitute, cut it right, stabbed it in a skewer, he said, and began to roast it with a magical fire.

As the smell of burnt meat filled the hut, a woman's throat rang. His body was agitated and swayed left and right, like a dog being pinned to me.

"Horay"

"I'm going to enjoy this!"

The woman who received the skewers offered to her chewed hot meat at once and swallowed it without chewing. And feel free to stretch your dirty hands with oil onto the next skewer and chew the meat further. When I was gobsmacked by such a sight, the woman who was full after eating all the meat laughed as if embarrassed, licking the oil on her fingers.

"No. Thank ye. I'm salvaged. I haven't eaten properly for the past few days."

"That's great, but .. why are you on a mountain like that? There's no town or village around here?"

Other than power, what would the people around me think if a beautiful girl who never aged after so many years lived alone? You might think it's the best vampire, or worse, a human who has gained immortality in some way. Even if there was no such reason, it was a figure that stood out even for free. I was sure that it would fall apart when I saw it, so I settled in the mountains that were said to be undeveloped on the continent, even more uninhabited. I don't think there's anyone in a place like that.

"Well, that's right. Actually, I am an adventurer, but I came to this mountain when I heard that there are many powerful monsters that can be obtained at once."

Adventurers - There are many people who used to conquer monsters and make a living while I was active. He must have called a socially unfit person who is not good at working diligently, has no place around him, or is not good at anything other than physical activity. Maybe this woman is that kind of person.

"Huh ..."

"What's that?"

The woman was confused by me, who hit her shoulder with a warm sympathetic smile. I never thought I could meet my Bocchi friends in a place like this.

"Don't worry. You have a lot of problems too."

"... I don't think I've been misunderstood so badly ... Anyway, please listen to me first!"

The woman's name is Karin. A human woman who will be 20 this year. Karin, who is not good at using her head, said that after failing to find work in the local area, she ran out of the house with a sword, saying that she would become an adventurer. Of course his parents and brothers desperately stopped. Sure oes. Even if the Demon King had fallen, it didn't mean that those monsters had disappeared, and in places where security wasn't safe, he had always wandered around as a bandit and stripped naked. It's just a suicidal act that an unconfident woman in her arms wanders alone. If I had a family or friend like that, I would stop. ...... I'm not here.

However, this Karin seemed to only be blessed with sword talent even though she was sick, and she seemed to have made an outstanding appearance soon after enrolling in the guild. After finishing his esoteric quest one after another, he started selling well, and one day he bet with a famous adventurer at the liquor table. The bet itself looks like a card or something, but the problem is the content of the bet. Karin who is drunk is defeated by taking all the money she has and then trying to get it back with something as collateral. In a hurry, he seemed to have been searching for prey on this undeveloped mountain, which was said to be dangerous due to the attacks of powerful monsters to pay off his debt at once.

"Hm ... Well, as far as I know, everyone who plays with that card is a teacher."

"Yes!? Really!?"

"No, because .. it is not natural to lose just one person for such comfort. Didn't you realize it?"

"If you ask me .. I think I grin while looking at something from time to time ..."

Be carefull! Usually, such an immediate attitude, kicking the table and directly fighting. At the end of the day, I started having headaches while doing other things. Listening to the story with a little anxiety, Karin said something more of a headache.

"So...what is the guarantee for betting?"

"That's.. um. my body."

Neck fall. That was their goal from the beginning. I can only think so. You don't have to look forward. This woman would not be able to pay off her debt when the deadline arrived, and after being made good by the men, she would be sold to a brothel.

"Sorry, but don't give up. I know my abilities, but the monsters around here aren't weak enough to be hunted by you."

Karin silently stared at the cold words that hit reality, and began to shake her shoulders. Are you crying? ...... I might be able to help without saying anything if I was an active era. But now I'm different. I learned a lot by restoring my grace. Unless you ask for help, I have no intention of getting involved.

Karin, who suddenly raised her face, shouted while biting. Eyes wet with tears and face red with excitement. Too bad she has a pretty cute face.

"……please?"

"Are you very good at it? Can you help me!?"

Why are you out! ?? Funnier. I should be a gentle beautiful girl now. It was told to the adventurer that he would be good at first sight. Did his strength as a hero leak before he realized it? ?? If so, I will also soon be unable to stay here. Various people must hurry using my strength. But before that, I had to ask why I understood it. I was nervous and screaming.

"... Why did you find my arm to stand?"

“Because it is not normal for someone living alone in the mountains where there are many such powerful monsters! Moreover, while grilling the meat, he used magic without a spell! It was difficult even for an expert magician. Such a person could not possibly be weak to be able to do so. to use items in daily life!"

I'm fuck-! No hero power connection! It doesn't leak, I leak! Karin chased further as I crouched down while holding my head.

"And I've never seen anyone look so good! Maybe you're a legendary vampire or something!?"

"No, it's different! Because I'm a good person!"

Whether or not a person does not grow old is ruled out at this time, and it must be denied. It will be really troublesome later. Well, since I made a funny misunderstanding, did I use an honorary degree for me, who was obviously younger? i'm convinced.

"That's right...? But strong things are powerful, right? Help u! Please help me because I met you here!"

Karin who knelt down and adored me while making her eyes wet. Stop over. I'm not a god or anything, I'm still alive. Stop worshiping.

"Eh ..."

He looked like a puppy and shifted his eyes. I knew it would be easier if I pushed him here, but I heard someone singing a big choir that I had to help out somewhere in my heart. …… Huh ..... That's a detrimental personality. How many times will I be deceived and disciplined? Well, that's why I'm a hero ... I scratched my head with ******* which was deep as if I had given up.

"... I-i understand. I'll help you."

"Well, is that true! Thank you!"

Karin clung to my feet and started crying. It's ugly. I was driven by the desire to kick him now, but I managed to hold him back and push Karin's head away.

"So when is the loan due?"

"It's been a month. It took me a week to get here, so when I thought about my return, it was only about two weeks."

Two weeks ... If that's true, it's better to let them develop their abilities and let them hunt on their own, but I don't have enough time to say such a generous thing. That can't help. Do I have to go on a business trip here?

"Any monster to hunt? Who's your goal?"

"That's it. a dragon."

The eyes become a point without conscious. The dragon? Do you intend to hunt down the strongest monster, the dragon? With the Karin skill, you can only kill yourself by passing carelessness. Karin didn't try to make eye contact, maybe she knew it was impossible. This guy ... I told you to help, so you didn't change your purpose, did you?

"... That okay? This is the ship I am riding on, so I will be with you until the end. Is it okay to leave tomorrow?"

"Yes! Of course! ... By the way, can you tell me your name?"

By the way, I didn't call myself. I'm sloppy.

"I'm Br--"

When I said that, I closed my mouth in a hurry. My real name is ugly. I don't know where the secret was leaked, and it's safer to use a pseudonym.

"Hm! Well. I'm Lapis. My name is Lapis."

I said it twice because it was important. The name comes from these beautiful eyes. The beautiful blue eyes were filled with a jewel-like light. It was like a jewel I saw before - a layer of lazuli.

"Coating.san. Again, I'm Karin. Thank you, Lapis!"

In contrast to Karin, who said with a wide smile, I drowned violently.
