The Cold-Blooded Sword Expert
Nostalgic

“Eh?” Leo frowned as he and Hime first entered the village. How not? A middle-aged mother called out her name. In fact, Leo himself does not know the names of these mothers.

Not only mothers, suddenly some people who glanced at Leo, they immediately greeted Leo with surprise as if seeing someone who had just returned from his hometown. Even if it is.

“You really are Leo, right? you, you smell the name of the village of Caprae! We heard your action saved the mayor!”

“Leodric, where's the old geezer?”

“Waah, Leodric came home with a woman.”

“I'm sorry, but that grandpa disappeared all of a sudden.” Leo answered one of their questions.

Those who heard that, they were surprised by the statement that Gin was no longer with Leo. Leo and Gin's relationship is so close that they or the villagers are amazed even though they know that Leo and Gin have no blood relation at all.

It is unfortunate that the old of the mountain is no longer with Leo. Clearly it made them a little disappointed and sad as Gin was said to have disappeared all of a sudden.

“Hey, give Leo a way! He wants to go back to the slopes! You guys should know what Leo's attitude is.” Said one of those who understood Leo's feelings.

Leo seemed to sigh in relief when there were people who understood that Leo wanted to go back to the slope to see the condition of his house.

Those who understand, they pave the way for Leo and they consider her to be Leo's woman. Leo can walk again.

“Eh Leo! Leo's back! Hi Leo. Wait, what?”

“My prince, after months you finally camp ...”

As usual, as Leo walked towards his house, many women both old and young waved at Leo as if looking for attention. However, this time they were a little desperate because Leo came back with bad news for them, namely Hime who walked behind Leo proudly.

Leo didn't touch them at all, didn't even look the same way he did. He thinks they're just a woman looking for attention, especially .... Leo is not interested in them at all.

“You are quite famous in this village sir. Look, There are a lot of women greeting you.”

“But their mouths are a little silent when there is you. Well, if there's no you, maybe those women are so excited.”

“Eh?” Hime's face flushed slightly.

“Before, I lived in this village. But I socialized a little to them because I had a solitary house. Did you see that mountain slope? I live there.” Follow Leo while looking up.

While walking towards Leo's house, Hime seems to ask a lot about Leo before.

“What about the grandfather someone mentioned earlier? and, she has the nickname old of the mountain?”

“True, I live together with Gintaru's grandfather. But he did not seem to like the crowd so he made a house on the slopes of this mountain and stayed with me, until the name of an old man from the mountain was created. However, I won't tell you how I got to meet him, because the story is so long.” Leo answered.

Slightly up the mountain slope, and also through some rice fields, Leo had finally arrived at an old hut that was so pitiful. It's like being unkempt and abandoned for so long.

In fact, Leo himself hopes that when he returns, his shack or small house is maintained that makes him really curious. And when he entered, old man Gintaru was inside and was sharpening a sword. Yeah, that's a little bit of Leo's hope.

“This is my home first. Look, this is so sad because it seems that the walls also look weathered and unkempt.”

“Surely here many memories are lost. Am I right sir?”

“Maybe, but the memories that are still imprinting are the swords that are on my back. This is a sword belonging to Gintaru's grandfather actually.” Said Leo himself while glancing towards the sword that was on his back.

“Although old man Gin is really a figure I miss so much, but I think he's a fucking asshole. Did you see that cage? It used to contain about 7 goats. And you know what old man Gin asked for?” Ask Leo to Hime.

It's just that, Hime hasn't answered him yet, Leo himself has explained it to Hime. “He asked me to carry the goat up to the top of this mountain. Maybe it's just one goat, and what if it's seven? I have to go up and down repeatedly.”

“Master, I have always believed in you. But for this time I'm not at all.” Hime replied to her with a smile on his face.

Without waiting any longer, Leo lifted Hime up and placed it on his hands. To be more precise, he carried Hime on top of his hand. Merely, he was still expressionless at all.

“Tu-lord, a-what are you doing?” Hime asked nervously. His face was flushed, and his heart was also pounding as Leo treated him like this.

“Shut up, I'll take you to the top of it. You must be tired of having to walk this far.”

“I-iya sir, I-I believe that you carried all those goats to the top of the mountain. Ta-but. Emm no! I-I still can't believe that you're carrying the mountain.”

“What are you talking about?”

“Eh?”

Hime was actually beating so fast when Leo treated him like that. Even when he climbed up the steep slope, Leo still broke through it and still took Hime with both hands.

Leo is used to doing things like this. He was holding Hime, according to his true thoughts he was just practicing because he was no longer carrying the goat to the top. So, what is done by Leo is just an effort to stretch the muscles and a little nostalgic. More or less, he considered Hime to be just like a goat.

According to him, the path is still the same as before. Nothing has changed like being ruined by adventurers or perhaps others. So, Leo just sighed with a little relief.

In the end, Leo reached the top. He set his breath and lowered Hime slowly before he stretched out both his hands to stretch the muscles of his arms.

The air is so cool, it seems Leo is a little nostalgic at the top of this mountain. The meadow is so vast that Leo sheds all his goats. Even the semi-cage is still there.

“Tu-lord, te-thank you. I-I didn't expect a little that you were that strong. Other than that I can't believe that you're not panting.” Hime said while turning his face away. In her heart she felt a happiness she never felt.

“Still beautiful as always. We can see there are some objects here. Did you see? In the north there is our mansion or forest esves, in the west there is the town of Silver Fox and the city of Black Garden. In the east is the city center of Little Pear.”

While saying so and pointing at directions, he could feel the breeze of the breeze passing through his pores. Makes her more calm and think of nothing but the beauty that is here.

Hime alone understood and felt a deep sense of amazement when he saw the scenery that was above this mountain. Especially coupled with the breeze that is so delicious.

Hime looked at Leo, but Leo walked towards a tree that was so shady and looked cool when viewed. More precisely, Leo walked up to the tree and sat leaning so calmly. Even Leo himself seemed to feel a drowsiness as he leaned against the tree.
