Heroes are mean

「Unfortunately, there are no pages left, so I will have to write them in another book.」

With that, the content of the diary was over.

But the demon king said that there is a book that records secrets that Oran did not tell.

A secret, perhaps, about the fear imprinted on Oran.

I looked through all the books, thinking that this might be somewhere in the library. However, I couldn’t find a single book related to the demon king.

Did the demon king lie? No, that didn’t happen.

Because the feeling of wanting to bully Oran, which was shown in the handwriting, was sincere.

It was clear that there was a book containing the secrets of the demon king somewhere.

Where is it? There was one place that came to mind while I was thinking about it buried in a pile of books.

“Land of dragons.”

It was the place where the demon king hid his treasure.

At the same time, it was also the place Serena said to escape the moment when she was questioned about where the treasure of the demon king was hidden.

‘I thought I said it right.’

Did it happen by chance? It wasn’t, she felt.

Perhaps the latent memories in my head influenced it.

A hypothesis comes to my mind when I think about it.

‘Is it true that I possessed in a novel… ?’

If that’s not the case, I hope.

…… There is no solid evidence yet, so I decided not to hastily confirm it.

No matter what it is, if the demon king finds the book that records his secrets, he will be able to find out the cause of everything.

“That also means that you have to go outside in the end.”

I don’t know when Serena will be back here.

Even if she was busy driving out the demons, wouldn’t she be able to say something if it was too late——the moment she thought.

“Oran!”

I heard Serena’s urgent voice from outside the door.

She hurriedly opened the door and she bumped into something running and fell on her back.

“Oran…!”

The entity that struck me was Serena.

“I missed you so much.”

She wrapped her arms around my waist and buried her head in her arms.

No matter how long it’s been since we met, isn’t this the attitude towards a lover who almost died?

The way she tried to get closer to me was really affectionate, but it wasn’t without excessive feelings.

“What happened?”

Serena raised her head at my question. As she stared at me, her eyes turned red, and then she started to shed tears.

“Oran, Oran… Oraan…”

She muttered my name over and over again in a weeping voice and tugged at the sleeves of her dress.

Even though her grip was shaking, a strong tendon sprouted over her hand as if she didn’t want to let go.

I don’t know why, but now she was very upset. I patted Serena on the back slowly until she regained her composure.

‘What the hell happened?’

The girl who climbed on top of me was originally light, but she felt lighter than before, perhaps because she hadn’t eaten properly for a while.

Moreover, the clothes she was wearing now were not the neat uniforms she was used to seeing, but the old tunics and shabby robes worn by ordinary people.

Her silver hair half covered in dirt and her mud-soaked shoes.

Her body trembled with fear, she was no different from her fugitive figure.

“Serena, calm down. No one else is allowed in here.”

“……That’s right. There’s no need to be shaken.”

After several seconds, she exhaled slowly and shook her head.

“Could you slowly explain what happened?”

“Absolutely not!”

When I asked, wondering if she’d calmed down a bit now, Serena shrugged her shoulders.

“Oh, nothing happened. So there’s no need to worry.”

She seemed to realize that she overreacted, she added quietly.

Serena lowering her head like her dead cat. There was fear in her cloudy blue eyes.

She was hiding something from her now.

Is it because you don’t want to worry about me?

It’s not that I don’t understand her feelings for me.

Still, I couldn’t just leave her alone and watch her in pain.

“Serena. Are you hiding something from me?”

“…There is no such thing.”

Serena, avoiding my gaze, muttered in a trembling voice.

Although she was cute in her way of acting that didn’t work.

It was a sign that confirmed each other’s feelings, but I felt a little bit of a shame in that there was something to hide.

“Actually, I have one thing I’m hiding from you.”

“What is it?”

Serena asked right away, her eyes widening. Her hand holding my collar was weakly strong.

“But I can’t tell you.”

“Why?”

“Because I think you’re worried.”

“It doesn’t matter, just tell me… ah.”

For a moment, her hand, which was holding on to my collar and eager to ask for water, lost strength for a moment.

Soon after, Serena gently bit her lip.

Did she get a glimpse of herself in my actions? She hung her head down like her guilty one.

‘I didn’t mean to be sullen.’

I pulled Serena’s cheek. Her cheeks stretched out like her cheese stretched.

“…Ugh! What are you doing?”

Serena seemed to have come to her senses at the pain she felt in her cheek, and belatedly removed my hand to express her displeasure.

“I didn’t like the way you tried to hide it, so I tried to be mean.”

“……I’m sorry. This is how it feels to hide something.”

“She just didn’t want to worry you,” Said Serena, lowering her head again.

“I also pinched your cheek without permission, so raise your head.”

Even though she said it was okay, Serena’s stiff face seemed unwilling to straighten.

So this time she pulled the cheek opposite her.

This time, her cheeks keep growing. The tactile feel of her ponytail was very good.

“uuu?

Shaking her head, Serena muttered reluctantly as she grabbed both of her blushing cheeks.

“Then can you tell me what happened?”

Hesitantly, she nodded and started talking.

“After the demon invasion was sorted out to some extent, a meeting was held about what to do with you.”

She said that and added that because she made a promise with the hero, she couldn’t hear the demon king’s stone even for a moment.

“Since you didn’t do anything wrong this time, I thought you would be released without incident, but in the end…”

Serena was speechless as if she was overcome by her resentment.

I felt like I could understand the next content even if I didn’t listen to it myself.

The hero must have decided to deal with me because he thought I was dangerous.

Honestly, it wasn’t that I couldn’t understand his position.

Because I did bully him a little bit in the memories that came to mind.

Even if it was for his growth, there was no way the hero knew about it.

So, to Evil, Oran must have been a villain who had to be eliminated.

Anyway, Serena couldn’t see my death, so it seems she ran away with the Demon King’s Stone.

But the opponent is a hero. He couldn’t have easily escaped from him, who was stronger than the Demon King.

“Is there a hero standing outside?”

“That’s not it. Charen said he would protect you, so you’ll be safe for a while.”

Fortunately, she escaped the worst, but it was too early to rejoice.

Because it remains to run away from the hero, the biggest challenge.

Just thinking about it made his eyes go dark, but he decided not to show it as much as possible.

Even now, Serena is looking at me with nervous eyes.

She didn’t have to worry about anything.

“Thank you.”

“Thank you, what?”

“You risked your life to protect me.”

“…It’s not something to be praised for. It’s just an act of my own accord.”

Serena’s lips protruded as if embarrassed.

I brought my lips towards it.

Page-

A light bud kiss where your lips touch each other.

It wasn’t even a sticky kiss, but Serena’s face turned red in an instant.

“What did you do?”

“I didn’t kiss you to compliment you. It was just my way.”

“What is that…”

Even though she seemed bewildered, she carefully touched her own lips.

Then Serena smiled bashfully as if she had recalled the sensation she just had.

“Evil is despicable. Or An is so kind, but she judged herself dangerous.”

“When didn’t the language communicate?”

“……I didn’t know he was that kind of guy.”

She threatened to stop drinking the water in order to curse at the warrior, but she cursed him easily, as if she had an affair.

“But since Evil will calm down in a few days, why don’t she stay away from her for a while until then?”

“For example, where?”

“It would be nice if it was a place that no one else knew, and it was difficult to access and dangerous.”

I wondered why he wanted such a place, but it all made sense since the pursuer was a warrior.

But where in the world is such a place?

─There was one place that just came to mind.

“Land of Dragons, the Demon King’s lair is there. Can I go there for a while?”

She pondered with her hand on her chin, then nodded her head.

“It’s not bad. Even a warrior wouldn’t be able to come there.”

After she was finally accepted, I wondered if it was because of her curiosity about the secret of her demon lord that she was getting caught up in it.

“Isolation of the two of us… I might have a chance to use what I learned from Sharenne.”

Sometimes Serena looks oddly happy.

If a real hero is coming to kill us like she said, there’s no place as safe as the devil’s lair.

I decided to think of finding out the secret of the demon king as a bonus.

“Travel, I’m looking forward to it…”

Serena, who had been talking to herself with a raised voice, suddenly collapsed on top of me.

Smoothly.

It seems that she fell asleep as she relaxed in my arms, breathing lightly.

‘It’s fortunate.’

I carefully lifted her into her princess hug position.

Her bedroom was a new place, but it was awkward to let her into it before her Demon King’s scent completely disappeared.

So, while she was away, it was kind of like lending me the bed I was using again.

It’s not a big deal, maybe she doesn’t like the smell of me on her bed.

“The smell of oran… It’s good…”

As I listened to her muttering in her sleep as she rubbed her nose against my arm, fortunately there seemed to be no problem.

I laid Serena down on the bed. I was worried for a moment as she breathed in her head with her head buried in her pillow.

Still, I didn’t show any sign of discomfort, so I decided to leave it as it is.

I also thought that I wanted to keep watching her like this.

Because we’re lovers now.

I couldn’t sit still.
