AN: Sorry, I wrote the extra chapters after the story has concluded. This contributes to the view from the first chapter.
I am Calfan. A magic swordsman who is a fairly well-known adventurer.
Actually, I am this country's sixth prince; though the life of the royal family didn't suit me so when I was not even around fourteen years of age, I had ran away from the castle. Of course, this is a secret.
Fortunately, I had enough skills at that time to make a living as an adventurer. Although there were some hardships, I did not have any financial troubles and enjoyed the adventurer life every day. I also get in touch with my family. These days, I'm mainly being pressed about marriage so I'm a little fed up with it.
An adventurer means being in an unstable occupation. If you play an active role magnificently, rumours will spread and you will become fairly popular with women. However, I do not have a fixed lover. That is because I am engrossed in improving my skills; and I have already become twenty four years old and yet, until now, I have not come across a woman to love.
At such a time, I took on a small job as an escort. Because a business rival was making disturbing movements, it was my job to ensure the safety of a rich ojou-sama.
Hunting dragons or exterminating demons were spectacular, but those weren't the only jobs of an adventurer. I called several trustworthy members. Gathering information on the side of escorting, I planned to pull out by the roots -- the corrupt company -- who appear to have had a hand in crimes.
Audrey Areinas was the subject to be escorted and was a cheerful girl with bright, light brown hair and green eyes. Age was 16 years; and with round eyes reminiscent of small animals.
「Nice to meet you, Calfan. Please call me Audrey.」
She doesn't put on airs, talks to me in a friendly tone, and often grasps the hand -- with a smile -- of the me whose appearance is said to be fearful.
「Well then, I should guide you around the house, right?」
She trotted and walked in front of me, but I could see that she had cute normal features. I've seen many more beautiful women. But, when you look at a girl whose gestures are adorned with laughter and smiles, it somehow calms my heart. Although her age is no longer that of a child, I wanted to lovingly pat the top of her head — such feelings were brought out.
「……Calfan, when sneaking around, what’s the best thing to do, I wonder?」
A few days have passed since the escort began when unexpected words were blurted out by the ojou-sama. If I was drinking tea, I would have spurted it all out.
Sneaking around, you say?!
Ojou, do you know the meaning of what you've just said?!
I imagined Audrey being pinned down by a man and I was horribly disgusted, but at the same time, confused by the throbbing excitement.
「Ojou, although there’s no one here besides me, you should be a bit more careful about your remarks. That isn’t something a young woman should say.」
Controlling my breathing, I gave advice as the older man in a calm tone.
Actually, Audrey's magical power is quite strong. There is no need to train because it is unnecessary; and if there is interest, I feel there is enough power to join the adventurers as a magician.
She seems to have the power of foresight and according to it, if she isn't embraced by a man, in the future, it seems that she will die.
That man, is it useless if it is me?
Such a thing came to mind, but I cannot afford to make advances on the escort subject. If the request was completed at least……
Because she started saying terrifying things like「By myself somehow」, strange feelings were brought out and I scolded her.
This woman will likely do something unthinkable if I take my eyes off her. I have to keep her under supervision.
I thought so and so promised to teach bedroom manners as she innocently smiled about visiting a man's room late at night.
Are you trying to test my reason?
I looked away from her.
This is bad. I was unexpectedly delayed and returned late.
When I returned to my room, in front of the door was an Audrey with pouting lips. With thin night clothes and a thrown on gown, it was a defenseless appearance.
As I've said, are you trying to test my reason?
I breathed out a sigh and touched her shoulder; but she was startled and stared at me with round eyes.
Cute.
This is bad. Do not think about unnecessary things.
Apparently, I was still feeling worked up after the raid. I need to take a shower and cool off.
As for her, she entered the room with a red face and screamed when I took of my shirt. It seems that she doesn't have immunity towards men. Bold remarks were made, but she is a virgin.
When I came out after a shower, there were a lot of screams. The people in the house would have gathered; and it would have seemed as if I had done something impolite if not for the magic shield in the room.
First of all, the flow of the talk about sneaking around was how -- sometimes -- to invite someone in, you send a letter. If you do this, you wouldn't have to go anywhere dangerous alone. Of course, I didn't not even feel like delivering her to a man's room at all. Isn't there some other good way? You should consider it more.
Here, Audrey thought about the reality of what would happen when sneaking around and shivered in fright. I felt sorry and wrapped her in a blanket and hugged her. When she looked up at me, there was relief in her eyes. Her eyes drew me in and I brought my face closer and stole her lips lightly.
Cute eyes grew wide in surprise and I smiled uncharacteristically.
This is bad.
I do not want to hand this girl over to anyone.
TN:
- The woman to love ⇒ Or the woman I'm meant to love.
- This is bad ⇒ γΎγγ Mazui
- First of all.......you should consider more ⇒ I'm really unsure about the MTL of this whole paragraph.
*Blushes, deeply* Calfan...
