Volume 7 Chapter 29 The Junior Doesn't Listen
In my life, things that don't go well are more common.
Being called to another world and becoming a Hero was supposed to be a situation that manga-loving middle and high school students aspire to. It was supposed to be a cheat-like unbeatable situation in another world!
But it didn't turn out that way.
I've been diligently training and fighting, growing while winning and losing.
But when it comes to battles, it's the area where things went relatively well.
After all, I defeated the Demon Lord, so the main objective was achieved.
So what was the number one thing that didn't go well?
Without a doubt, it's my love life.
Being abandoned by Eris and returning to Earth was one thing, but I've had countless other failures.
I mean, I'm a Hero. Normally, I should be getting married to various women or having one-night stands, right?
In reality, I always end up falling short just when things are about to progress. I always end up with unsatisfactory endings.
This is the curse of a true Hero. It's really detrimental.
If this isn't a curse, then it must be my own problem. I bet if I went to a fortune teller, they would say that my bad luck with women is so strong that they can't even see my lifeline anymore.
Well, my life has always been filled with things that don't go well, but people are supposed to learn, experience, and grow from them. Naturally, I should have leveled up in how I handle women.
But...
"..."
I was just sitting in front of my house, clutching my head.
Even though I should have leveled up, I don't know the right answer to entering the house. I already know that everyone is waiting inside, just by their presence.
All I have to do is go in, but I have no idea how to convince them.
Glaive... please tell me. I should have asked you more about how to please your favorite lady.
About that and this too.
"You're not going in?"
It was because of Hinata, who was smiling broadly and hugging me in my arms.
Wait, is it Hinata now? Or is it Noire?
It seems like their souls have merged, but their consciousness is still separate. Unless I use magic, I can't tell which is which.
"Hey, which one are you now?"
"Can’t you see it?"
"..."
Wait, what kind of response is that? My heart skipped a beat.
Is it my fault for not understanding?
"..."
Alright, I guess I'm the one at fault this time.
When I see Hinata puffing up her cheeks, I can't help but feel guilty.
I've got to take responsibility for this junior who's gotten herself into a mess.
That's why I've brought her here.
Normally, I wouldn't expect Hinata to be so straightforward, so I thought it was Noire, but her words just now are ringing in my ears.
'Hinata will go the extra mile for her beloved senpai.'
And then, the sudden touch of a kiss.
At that moment, I was shocked, and I couldn't understand that it was a kiss. It wasn't like comparing to Tsukiko, but it was a passionate kiss that seemed to moisten dry lips.
Just thinking about it makes my head boil.
I can't say something that stupid like, 'as senior and junior.'
Now, looking at my confused face, Hinata took a deep breath and shrugged her shoulders.
"It's a joke. I'm Hinata Yukari. Noire seems to be tired and sleeping."
"Why do you know?"
"I feel a strange sensation, even to myself. I can definitely feel that Noire is inside. It's not uncomfortable or anything, but it's kind of weird."
"I see, is that how it is?"
Wait a minute. So you're telling me that you've been sticking to me on purpose since a while ago. That's your own will, Hinata?
Oh no, my heart is racing.
"Then, let go of me for a second. I need to open the door."
"No, thanks."
"...What?"
"I said no."
"I told you, I want to open the door."
Are you listening to me?
"You have one hand free, right? You can just open it with that."
"I'm not talking about whether I can or can't, Hinata-san. I'm saying I want you to let go of me. Do you understand?"
"I understand, but I still don't want to. Do you get it?"
This girl...!
Now that Noire is asleep, she's just a girl after all. I can just force her off me and open the door. That's what I thought, but then.
——Click.
The door was opened from the other side.
"...What are you doing?"
And then, Tsukiko appeared with a furious look on her face.
