The sky is dark. Right now Rigel is having dinner with the other heroes. They seem exhausted.
It seems like they are also leveling up today. Takumi started the conversation.
"Hey, do you know? Today I did leveling and managed to reach lvl 15 in one day."
"That's great, but it's still lower than me reaching lvl.20."
Perhaps Takumi intended to boast of himself for being able to level up quickly. However, it was easily destroyed by Takatsumi.
"That's lying! There's no way you can level up that fast! "
"Well, maybe because I found a good hunting ground."
"It's just the first day anyway. I just reached lvl 13. What about you Rigel?" Yuri asked Rigel.
" I just reached lvl 10."
"Hmm, that's a pretty good achievement for the weakest hero of all the heroes in the world."
"Be careful I'm afraid you'll be killed by a monster. After all you are no match in battle so there is no need to bother raising your level."
"already, it's not good to talk while we're eating."
Rigel just clicked his tongue. Although she knows Takumi is only joking, but somehow Takatsumi seems quite serious.
The sky does not look cloudy. It's a good time to look at the stars and that's why Rigel has complete confidence that Tirith must be looking at the stars in the royal garden. Rigel rushed to the park and... Justright. He found Tirith who was staring at the sky. In the middle of the garden was a beautiful girl staring at the stars with a serious face. Damn she's so cute!
"I thought you were here, princess."
"Oh, Rigel! What do you think of my country? "
"yeah. It is a beautiful country and looks very peaceful. The citizens live their lives in safety, nor do I see any crime during the walk."
"It's good that you like it. What made you come here?"
"I'd like to ask you a few things about this town to you princess."
"Emmm. Just call me tirith as usual. In this kingdom you're the only one I can consider a friend."
Tirith blushed in embarrassment as she said the word 'Friends' to Rigel.
"All right, Tirith. I want to ask you why I didn't see any for human sake? Do they not mix with humans? "
...
There was a brief silence between Rigel and Tirith. He looked sad when Rigel talked about Demi-humans. And then, finally he spoke.
"It is natural for you to ask that. You know that behind a bright light there will be darkness behind it. Just like this beautiful country, there will always be darkness behind it. Demi-humans are generally monsters but they have the form as well as the human mind and mind."
"Let me guess. Do the people of this country not accept demi-humans? And they drove the demi-humans out of this country."
"Your guess is not entirely wrong. The people of this country did not cast out demi-humans, but made them slaves and discriminated against them. Not even a few of the nobles who tortured them, there were also vile people who killed them to get stronger."
Rigel flinched slightly with tirith's statement. Slavery in a fantasy world was common, Rigel knew it. But the terrible thing is about people killing semi humans to level up. However, to kill them just for a level, how unhuman was that? Even within the Game on earth there would never be anything like it.
'If I were to meet such a person I would not hesitate to behead and tear them apart...!!!'
Wait, tirith knew that? Isn't he a royal? He should have been able to solve this matter yet why didn't he do anything and just turn a blind eye?!
"Tirith, you know that there's a bunch of assholes who kill demi-humans to level up. But why didn't you do what? Aren't you a princess? Aren't you a royal who has the highest authority in this country?"
Rigel impatiently threw a series of questions at Tirith.
"I, I have also tried to do anything to help them." tirith began to cry.
"I've tried too. But no one supported me with the idea I had. Even though I have power, but I cannot do things on my own, even my father was against when I tried to help the demi-humans and he revoked my authority so that I could do nothing."
'Ahh, fuck! What kind of a man am I?! The one who made this beautiful and cute gadia cry was just a piece of trash...'
It seemed, Tirith had tried various things to help them. However, the King and the nobles rejected Tirith's idea of freeing the demi-humans, or giving them a special territory. Rigel awkwardly hugged tirith who was crying in his chest.
"I'm sorry. I didn't know you were trying so hard to help them. I'm just upset that, even though I'm human, I have a great tolerance for demi-humans who live like hell."
"It's okay. I was also wrong for not being able to persuade my father and I couldn't do anything for them either."
Shit there's nothing I can do!
Rigel wanted to help them, he could not turn around and pretended not to look!
It's not just for demi-humans. This was also for tirith and his conscience.
"Hey, Rigel. Only you are the first person not to think of me as a princess. You think of me as an ordinary person. But you know what? I'm so glad to have someone like you."
"Rigel, you know. Fathers, nobles, and other heroes and people consider you the weakest hero."
Rigel.
"Because of that, can you promise me one thing? "
Tirith lifted her face and looked at Rigel's face and said:
"Whatever happens, stay alive and come back to my side, and one day you'll bring me as close to the stars as possible."
Rigel was surprised by tirith's sincere request. His face is still glass. Her eyes were red, her cheeks were wet from tears. Rigel wiped the tears off his cheek.
"Because you are so cute, I will promise you that. I don't have as much combat power as the others. Maybe I'll just be in the kingdom and supply a lot of weapons.But I don't care about that. I feel better here and see the stars with you and it makes me feel so comfortable and warm. My heart is always pounding, my heart churns with you. What is this feeling called yes."
"That might be love. When you love someone you want, you're always with him."
The flushed Tirith began to tighten her arms and breathe as if she was inhaling the scent of Rigel's body.
"I never know what love looks like, how and what it looks like. Haha, so this is how it feels, the heart will pump blood faster and something in my chest feels like it wants to explode when with you. Besides, even just by looking at you, for I feel so very happy. Hmm, so this means I love you huh, Tirith?"
"Hehe, you're very brave to express your feelings in front of me directly. It looks like I love you too, Rigel."
There was relief all by itself and Rigel felt his heart jump as Tirith said 'I love you too'
After a while Tirith and Rigel looked at each other. And then their faces drew closer until they could feel each other's breath. Tirith closed her eyes and Rigel held onto her cheeks then, their lips touching each other.
Tirith's lips taste like the sweetness of tea, and are very soft and warm. Time seemed to be running slowly, the wind was blowing hard with the leaves flying, the Moon seemed very shining as if she was happy.
Finally, a man who never knew what love was and what it felt like, can now feel what it feels like to be loved and loved by a girl.
After that thrilling kiss, Tirith bowed her head and her face flushed red. But he did not let go of his embrace and looked back at Rigel. Does she want to kiss again?
"Ty-tirith. If this continues I'm afraid we'll be married at a young age."
Tirith's face flushed to her ear and she took off her embrace from Rigel and kept a little distance.
"You're right. There are still many things we should do before building ru-ru-rumah t-tangga."
Rigel smiled because of his unbeatable faith.
However, Rigel still could not escape the thought of the Demi-humans. Although many people knew and heard their screams but there was no one to help them. Although he was weak, but Rigel was still a hero.
"One day, I'll definitely set them free. I'll save the demi-humans who scream for help."
"If that time comes. I gave you whatever you wanted from me." Tirith smiled.
Rigel looked at Tirith and his face flushed slightly.
"How about six?"
"Hmm? What do you mean by six?" Tirith was confused.
"I mean, I want six kids from you. Hows it? "
Tirith's entire face flushed until Rigel could almost see smoke coming out of his head.
"E-e-e-six a-a-anakk?! "
"Hmm is that weird? Then how much do you want?"
"Emh, yeah. I think the more ra-ramai s-the better."
Tirith turned her reddened face away from Rigel. She looks really cute at the moment.
Rigel smiled and brought his face closer to look at tirith's increasingly reddened expression while whispering 'heee, I see'
"The more the better. How about we make children as many stars in the sky and name them by the name of a star? "
" That's too much! I can't keep giving birth!" Tirith shouted and pouted.
Although she could not bear children continuously, Rigel could still help her make children continuously.
"ahahaha. You're right, if you want it right away you can just ask for my help okay? "
"Yes . When that comes, prepare yourself!! "
They looked at each other and laughed at the same time. This relationship will never be forgotten by Rigel.
