Night at the royal capital's restaurant.
Naofumi, Raphtalia and Felicia walk together, and Felicia and Naofumi clasped each other's hands, and Raphtalia clasped Felicia's hands on the left, in short Felicia was now halfway between Naofumi and Raphtalia.
"If we're family, I look like your two children, even though I'm older than Raphtalia" Felicia said.
"You think about that?" ask Naofumi wonder.
"Feli neesama, Feli neesama should not think about what other people think, because even though Feli neesama is shorter than me I never think of you as a younger person," said Raphtalia.
"That's right, even though you're physically a child but your age and mentality are already a teenager and maybe you've forgotten, but I still consider you my future wife" Naofumi responded as she patted Felicia on the head.
"For a 20-year-old college student, you can seduce people like her well," murmured softly Felicia as she brushed aside Naofumi's hand that stuck to her head.
"Students?" muttered asked Raphtalia.
"Ah that, it is my degree in my previous world, I am a student who studied economics and business," said Naofumi
"Ah so, does Mr Naofumi, want to return to your world?" raphtalia asked worried that her world was at peace. Naofumi would go to her home world and leave it behind.
"Well that's it, but if I can I want to take you guys into my world" Naofumi said.
Arriving at an empty table.
Raphtalia and Felicia sat side by side while Naofumi took a chair facing the two of them. Shortly after a voice was heard and the voice sounded like a rumbling stomach sound that came from who.
"That was not me" said Raphtalia, who did not appear to want to be accused.
"That's me," said Naofumi who was indeed the sound of his stomach, after all who proposed to go to the restaurant first before was him.
"From discussing the unimportant, shouldn't we order food first?" responding to Felicia while waving at the waiter.Servants came to them, Naofumi immediately ordered food for himself two colleagues namely Felicia and Raphtalia.
"I will take the cheapest food and for both of them, just give the children food" Naofumi said at the time.
"Mr Naofumi!" raphtalia began to protest as she stood up, "I'm not a child anymore!" his protest while moving his tail here and there.
"Raphtalia, no matter how you say it, it doesn't change the fact that you're a child" Felicia said, touching Raphtalia's hand and forcing her to sit back by pulling her down to the table
"But.."
"You look at me, we don't have much to protest about this, and our finances haven't really stabilized yet, eat what's there" Felicia said gently, although the real reason he did not want Raphtalia to change his food menu was so that he was still convinced that Raphtalia was just growing up physically not mentally.
"And I also want to eat the food that Mr. Naofumi eats, and the price is also the cheapest" responded Raphtalia.
"Yes, then I will also order it, if the three of us order the cheapest then it means it will be more efficient, no" said Felicia.
Naofumi who heard that just looked at Felicia, "But your physique is still a child, you should eat my order to get bigger faster" Naofumi responded.
"Guh, so you consider me a child because my body is small?!" exclaims pissed Felicia.
"Ti-no-I just want you to go higher faster" Naofumi replied.
"It's a month away I'm 20 years old!" exasperated Felicia
To esokan day.
Naofumi, Raphtalia and Felicia came to the arms dealer's shop, and Naofumi was wearing her new armor, which consisted of a leather vest and steel plate on the front, then there was a fine white fur on the collar of his green-colored robe.
"Don't I look like a bad guy?" ask Naofumi who is not concerned with her appearance.
"Cool, it's so fitting that it looks cool!" puji Raphtalia's.
"I introduce, Barbarian Armor, that's pretty cool. Lo, and judging by the combination of your face always distrusting others, you look like a bandit" said the Weapon dealer slightly teasing his customer.
"Kuh, I'm a Hero," Naofumi said, upset that Zirah's order instead made him look like a bandit.
"Well even so, you still look handsome and cool in my eyes," Felicia responded as she turned her face away from Naofumi.
"Haaah, since it's been made I have no choice but to use it" Naofumi murmured softly.
Shortly after the sound of the horse's footprints was heard and it caught the attention of Naofumi, Raphtalia and Felicia.
"What's wrong, why does everyone look worried?" raphtalia asked, looking at the townspeople who were staring worriedly at the royal knights who were walking on horses with ample war supplies, as if their country or kingdom would face a threat in a moment.
"Maybe because the wave of disaster is imminent," Naofumi muttered softly in response to what the royal knights were doing from the preparations and supplies they were carrying.
The Weapon dealer, Raphtalia and Felicia stared at Naofumi who had just spoken, "At least, if only we knew when and where the wave had appeared. We can plan something" Naofumi murmured softly.
"What ... How can you not know Anchan? Shouldn't all heroes be told this?" respond to the arms dealer who marvels at Naofumi's ignorance
"What thing?" asked Felicia curiously.
"In the Square Church of this city, there is a great hourglass. When the sand in it runs out, the Hero and his fighting partner will automatically be moved to where the waves are," explained the Weapon dealer.
Naofumi rushed to the church in the town square, but Felicia did not seem to follow him, "Feli-chan what's wrong?" ask Naofumi.
"I can't go to the Church, the area with holy energy will hurt my body, you must remember I'm a half-Vampire human, if I go there I'll just trouble you guys, you know, so I'll wait at the inn" Felicia said.
Arriving at the luxurious building which is a Church with ornaments of three holy weapons on it.
Naofumi and Raphtalia were escorted by a nun to a place in the Church, until finally she stopped and saw a giant hourglass with gold dragon ornaments decorate it.
"Walk through here" said the nun guiding Naofumi.
Naofumi nodded and walked forward, then the stairs to the hourglass began to lift one by one, Naofumi also set his feet on the stairs.
'This ... So this is what the King said about the Dragon Sand Clock, Naofumi's inner self. Then shortly after his shield also reacted to the huge hourglass ornate golden dragon, which was, naofumi's shield appears to emit a green light and point at the hourglass and immediately Naofumi's vision appears visual digital clock with a countdown of 20 hours 12 minutes more which means tomorrow morning is wave time disaster will come.
"This, is this the time limit until the wave appears?" muttered softly Naofumi, so soft that no one behind him heard it including Raphtalia.However, shortly as he was busy daydreaming, a voice spread his mind and made him regain consciousness.
"That's standing there Naofumi isn't it?" said a mysterious voice with a flat tone and also a bit dismissive.Naofumi who heard it looked back with Raphtalia and saw a group of people, there. Then there was a young man or a 20-year-old blonde ponytail-style, bright yellow-eyed, with light red armor and white shoulder protection, he carried a spear with a red crystal in the eye of his spear, then behind the person was a group of beautiful girls were his comrades, he was the spear hero Kitamura Motoyasu.
"Mr Naofumi, who are they?" raphtalia asked curiously.However, Naofumi's gaze was very cold, clearly emblazoned if his mood was suddenly bad, a sign he did not like the presence of Motoyasu. Naofumi also immediately walked away ignoring Motoyasu's words.
However, one of Motoyasu's colleagues or party members immediately spoke, "Wait for Mr. Motoyasu to talk to you!" exclaiming the red-haired girl with green eyes, the girl who once trapped Naofumi to make him lose his reputation and dignity as a hero in the eyes of all Melromarck residents.
Naofumi seemed to stop his steps hearing the woman's words, he stopped and looked ahead and saw two more people, who were other heroes just like Motoyasu, but they looked younger, and they looked younger, looks like a still-labile High School kid.
A black-haired young man with blue eyes wearing a white accent black armor with a spiked black steel shoulder protector, he holds a sword weapon, the mark he is a sword hero, he is Amaki Ren, he is Amaki Ren, then another pale blond young man was disheveled with green eyes, carrying a bow in his hand and he wore a white shoulder protection iron on his right shoulder, he was Kawasumi Itsuki the hero of arrows.
"Sadly," muttered angrily Naofumi who really disliked meeting the other three heroes.
But before he could say anything to express his annoyance, he heard the voice of Motoyasu seducing Raphtalia behind him.
"Include me" said the spear hero as he touched Raphtalia's hand.
An annoyed Naofumi was staring back and looking at their interaction. But it seems Motoyasu did not heed Naofumi's gaze or maybe he did not realize it and instead continued his introduction.
"I am the hero of Kitamura Motoyasu's shield" he said, introducing himself."Uh-master heroes?" muttered nervously and confused Raphtalia with Motoyasu's behavior.
"Sugary." murmured softly Motoyasu.
"Eh?" Raphtalia was confused as to what to say.
"Mr Motoyasu, you should not have to behave like that in front of Demihuman," said the red-haired woman with green eyes who seems to dislike that Motoyasu is close to a Demihuman.
"Girls like you are not suited to wielding swords. I'll protect you" Motoyasu said in a glittering setting, as if he was a flamboyant hero endowed with a god.
Can't bear to see Naofumi who was getting upset began to walk over to Raphtalia. Raphtalia who saw Naofumi approaching him immediately pulled her hand from Motoyasu's grasp, "Sorry, but I've decided to fight alongside Naofumi!" raphtalia.
"Naofumi said?! In any case, if you were with him you would" had not yet gotten Motoyasu to finish his words Naofumi appeared before him with a threatening look, "Isn't that right?" respond Motoyasu with a softened expression.
Then the red-haired woman was smiling to see Naofumi was angry and could not do anything. Naofumi looked angry, but he held back, because he was not the type of attacker, so he could not hit Motoyasu's face, not to mention there were many people so he could not do it.
Naofumi then chose to grab Raphtalia's hand and dragged her away from there, "Come!" naofumi exclaimed with a feeling of annoyance.
"Ah." Ringis Raphtalia, whose hand was pulled firmly, walked after Naofumi from behind, knowing Naofumi's feelings were very upset, but he did not know the reason.
"You already know the rumors about Naofumi right?" chanting Motoyasu on Raphtalia.
It again made Naofumi speechless, for a moment, Raphtalia looked at Naofumi while thinking about what rumors meant. Naofumi who held back the anger only returned to walk past Itsuki and Ren.
"We will meet in the coming waves" Itsuki said as Naofumi passed by.
"Don't stop us" Ren added again and the words really upset Naofumi.
In the inn at night.
Now Naofumi opened the room with a bitter face and saw that Felicia who did not know about the events in the Church was looking directly at Raphtalia asking for an explanation, but Raphtalia just shook her head in an incomprehensible sign.
Seeing Raphtalia's reaction, Felicia just sighed and looked at Naofumi who took the equipment to make herbal medicines and it appeared that he was smoothing some herbal plants using the tool, but roughly the sign of his negative emotions has not gone away.
"Raphtalia, sleep I will calm Naofumi," Felicia said as she looked at Naofumi and used her magic on Raphtalia and put Raphtalia to sleep, after Raphtalia fell asleep, Felicia immediately lifted Raphtalia's large body onto the mattress and went to the lodging kitchen to pick something up, after which she returned to her room and still saw Naofumi concocting the medicine with a feeling of annoyance.
"If you concoct medicine with emotions like that the quality will be reduced and will not sell well if sold," Felicia said as she sat next to Naofumi and handed him a cup of green tea from the leaves of the herbal plant.
"What's this?" ask Naofumi.
"I call it herbal tea," Felicia responded with a smile.
"You better get some sleep," responded Naofumi who continued her activities.
"That should be my word, I'm a creature of the night, so not sleeping is not a problem, but you're human, if you're staying up late it's not good, and also the quality of your medicine becomes ugly if you continue like this," Felicia said again, "So drink, this will calm your heart," Felicia added with a smile.
Seeing Felicia Naofumi's smile, she finally took the tea brewed by Felicia and drank it, "This ugh is bitter."
"Yes like your heart" Felicia replied.
"My heart is not bitter" Naofumi argued.
"What's really going on? What happens when I am not there? Why are you so upset?" tanya Felicia tried to use a good approach to comfort the heart of Naofumi who still remembered the incident while in the Church.
"I .. I met annoying people, people who slander and accuse me as they please, if my attack power is great, I've slapped him in the face as he continues to humiliate me. Besides that damn Motoyasu, even though he already has a lot of women in his group, but still eyeing Raphtalia!" naofumi's furious exclaim told all of her grunts.
"Naofumi .. sorry to make you remember such a sad thing, I just don't want you to keep carrying that emotion, it will make you unfocused, don't let other people's judgments bother you, I'm always there for you" Felicia said, kissing Naofumi on the forehead.
"Thank you" muttered softly Naofumi
"Yes, and you're calm, Raphtalia didn't hear anything, I've put her to sleep, so can you tell me about your past?" felicia asked, "And why are you angry at Motoyasu?"
Hearing Felicia's question, Naofumi began to tell her the beginning of being summoned as a shield hero. At that time because he was weak no one wanted to team with him, but suddenly a red-haired girl from the Motoyasu group volunteered to accompany him.
Her name was Myne Sofia. After it had gone so well, Myne introduced a lot to Naofumi, but then the next day. Naofumi lost her armor and all her money, was summoned to the palace and accused of nearly abusing Myne, and to the point of aggravating her armor was on Motoyasu's body.
Hearing Naofumi Felicia's story, she punched the wall and said, "Woman****fucking!" felicia exclaimed in anger that Naofumi had lost everything to the women of Motoyasu's group
"F-Feli-chan?" naofumi's slow murmur saw the wall that was hollowed out due to Felicia's small fist.
"What?" ask Felicia.
"It's nothing, it's just .. How do we compensate for the wall of the inn you destroyed?" ask Naofumi.
As Felicia's face flushed, "M-sorry, I-you said I'm your future wife, right, so it's only natural that I'm angry about this, and that Motoyasu, too, he doesn't seem like a good man either, even if I have to let Raphtalia marry someone, that person has to be a gentleman" Felicia said.
"Hahaha, you're acting like her mother, even though you're still a child," Naofumi responded to Felicia's short appearance.
"Ugh, at least I'm old enough to get married" Felicia replied.
