Chapter 111: Later talk 3
『Lucas after graduation』
Spirit territory, a space filled with spirits that exist in the large forest where elves live. The sun goes down and the children rush home.
“Sensei, goodbye!" Child 1
“See you tomorrow!" Child 2
“You have to go home early!" Lucas
“Yes!” Child 1
Small children come out from the study place of a certain town. To see them off, there was one elf with sparkling blond hair and waved to the children. It is a beauty that everyone looks back, although she is wearing men clothes. A young man speaks as soon as the children disappear from the sight. It is an ikemen elf with short hair and a well-balanced face.
“A, Ano!” Male teacher
“Ah, Sensei. Have not you returned home yet?" Lucas
“Ye, Yes. There is something I want to tell sensei..." Male teacher
“What is it?” Lucas
The man who tilts his head and raised his voice had bright red long ears, which was somewhat cute.
“Th, that's.... Please, go out with me!" Male teacher
The man who lowers his head holds out his right hand. Whether it is because it was a sudden confession and was being embarrassed, his hand is crawling around the beauty.
“Eh! I'm in trouble even if you suddenly say that!” Lucas
“Sorry! But I cannot endure it anymore! Please go out with me!" Male teacher
“...I'm sorry, I can't do that.” Lucas
“Is there someone who you're already dating!?" Male teacher
“I do not think so..." Lucas
“Then why!?” Male teacher
The truth is pointed to the man mercilessly.
“Because...I am a man." Lucas
<Lucas POV>
I'm sorry, Sensei.... I was burning something pure white and I hope you don't distrust women.
After graduating from the academy, I returned to my hometown and became a teacher at this study place. I've been invited to join the military, but it doesn't really suit me. I like children. It's good to be a teacher that way, but… recently I've received many confessions. This is the third time this month. I know I look like a woman, but I couldn't believe it. I even wear men's clothes. Ah, I want to be popular with girls too. I am a man.
“Hey, Miss-chan, what's going on?" Grocery store uncle
“Ah, uncle..." Lucas
I speak to the uncle of the grocery store where I often shop. Maybe he's an elf… but he is muscular...his ears are pointy, so I know he is just barely an elf.
“There are a couple of things..." Lucas
“Well...you're prettier than a woman, so it is not genuine. If I were younger, I absolutely would confess to you!" Grocery store uncle
“Stop it, it doesn't sound so funny. And your wife will get angry." Lucas
“I know. That's right, a human boy came to visit you." Grocery store uncle
“Human?...Tsuchio-kun, is it?" Lucas
Tsuchio-kun, did you become an official of the kingdom? I don't think there's enough time to visit me....Or did he really come?
“Does he know where I am now?" Lucas
“I said you'd be back soon, so I think he is wandering around." Grocery store uncle
“Ahh, Lucas! Did you come back!" Tsuchio
Just from where I came, Tsuchio-kun comes running. Wearing a wonderful suit, perhaps his formal wear. He came to the fairy territory because of work.
“Tsuchio-kun! Long time no see!" Lucas
“Yes, it's been a long time. I haven't seen you since graduation… about three years ago.” Tsuchio
“Wow, that's really a long time!” Lucas
Because there were many things, I would have become bearish. Emotional, I ran towards Tsuchio and hugged him. Taunts and whistles fly from the surroundings, it is not anxious only at that time.
“Oops, what's wrong Lucas?" Tsuchio
“There are a couple of things..." Lucas
“Well, here we stand out, so let's move a bit." Tsuchio
“Here, tea.” Tsuchio
“Thanks.” Lucas
We went to a nearby park and sat next to each other on a bench. It seems Tsuchio has come to work after all when hearing it. It seems that he came to see me because he had a little time.
“How are Ruu and the others?” Lucas
“This time it's only me and Tsuchino. This kind of troublesome thing is my responsibility." Tsuchio
“...Perhaps Tsuchio-kun is pretty good?" Lucas
“Well, how is it? Standing is not that high. That's why I came to other countries because there is no one who accompanies me.” Tsuchio
“Yes, it's hard..." Lucas
“That's the same for Lucas. What's wrong, something seems to have happened." Tsuchio
“Ahaha, it's not such a big deal..." Lucas
I tell Tsuchio that I was confessed by a man. If it was a woman, I didn't have to worry about it either.
“Haa...well, I feel like you were surprised as expected. Men are all like that." Tsuchio
“Well, I think that everyone is beautiful if they want to go out with me. Even I am. But, if they investigate a little before confessing, they usually understand that I′m a man, don't they? In other words, people who have confessed so far have confessed by seeing only my face. Which cannot be forgiven!" Lucas
Really, that's the only thing I hate about it. It's good to be a pushover, but it's really disgusting.
“Well, calm down, calm down. Yes, Hiihiihuuhiihiihuu." Tsuchio
“Hiihiihuu...huu, sorry Tsuchio-kun.” Lucas
“Well, only some guys are pleased with being liked by men. Lucas is a good girl and can be a wonderful wife." Tsuchio
“Yes, thank you.” Lucas
As expected, Tsuchio is gentle. I want a young bride who is like Tsuchio-kun....No, I do not want to marry Tsuchio!
『Yes, you called me?』Tsuchino
“I, I have not called you!" Tsuchio
『Well, when Lucas-chan refused like this...it’s a shock. You are still beautiful and your magic power is omnipotent.』Tsuchino
“Why, why did you come out Tsuchino. While you are here, will not you come out? It's troublesome" Tsuchio
『No, I felt like I was called. Oddly, I was absolutely called.』Tsuchino
By the way, if Tsuchio was a girl, he would be like Tsuchino-chan. Well...but, Tsuchio and Tsuchino are still different. Tsuchio is a man, he is Tsuchio.
“Well then, Tsuchino has come out and we can go back now." Tsuchio
“Eh, are you going back now? I wish we could eat dinner together." Lucas
“I want to do so in the mountains… but I have to visit more places today." Tsuchio
“Ah, it was so.... Do your best." Lucas
“Yes, Lucas too. Let's meet once in awhile, so don't leave when I come here." Tsuchio
『Why don't you try aiming at a manly woman who’s frank? Like, those of the knights order.』Tsuchino
“Yes, certainly more suited." Tsuchio
“Knights...I will try to get acquainted a bit." Lucas
“It's what Tsuchino says and I think that it is better not to take it too seriously. " Tsuchio
『Terrible!』Tsuchino
“Don't bully Tsuchino-chan too much, Tsuchio-kun." Lucas
『Yeah, heal me more! Take care!! Be affectionate!!!』Tsuchino
“It's like I'm dealing with myself, I'm feeling somewhat strange.... Well, think about it. Then Lucas, let's meet again.” Tsuchio
“Yes, please contact me." Lucas
A black shadow covered Tsuchio and he flew away high in the sky. As he said earlier, I wonder if he will head to work again. You're doing your best, Tsuchio-kun… it's not even the case that I am excited. There is a person who sees me properly. I have to become a excellent teacher for the children until that person appears!
『Tris after graduation』
Cave country, a country made in a mine made by Dwarves. It is stretched out across the large mountain ranges of the northern continent, and still new veins are being discovered, a continental first resource exporter.
“Hey, Triss. I will substitute you."
“Is it already time? There was no abnormality!" Triss
“Roger, you can go home now. You′re tired."
“Thank you for your hard work! I am rude in advance!" Tris
In the town in such a tunnel, the time when the soldiers who were guarding in front of the gate just changed. A small soldier equipped with metal armor and big hammer greets the senior soldiers with a high voice. Because of the environment inside the mountains, the cave country has more attacks of demon beasts than other countries. Because it is inside a tunnel, you can not make walls etc, so if a demon beast appears, the gates will close and the soldiers will fight. The role of a guard is also quite important in this country.
A small soldier who returned to the soldier station takes off her cramped helmet that is suffering. Her brown fluffy hair spread, before she finally breathed a breath.
“There was nothing today, which is good.... After all, peace is the best!" Triss
<Triss POV>
After graduating from school, I came back to my hometown and became a soldier stationed in the town. I had always wanted to be a blacksmith when I was a child, but unfortunately I had no talent. There was a way to succeed in my parents' home, but my father and mother are still alive, and because I have a sister, I chose to become a soldier in order to make the most of my studies at the academy.
My parents' house is a liquor store. Because dwarves are heavy drinkers, it is profitable. Now, my sister is in the middle of studying various things from my father. She is still far from being a researcher and she is strictly guided.
When I came near my house, my father's laughter was heard from inside. There must be a drinking party. Besides that, the voices of more than one person. Has anyone come to visit?
“I have just returned home!" Triss
“Oo, Triss. Long time not seen!" Tsuchio
“...Tsuchio-dono?” Triss
When I open the door of my house, the figure of Tsuchio is in front of my eyes. Many dishes are lined up at the back table, and my father, Ruu and the others are drinking one bottle after another. What on earth is this!?
“Why is Tsuchio-dono in my house!?" Triss
“Because I had some business here, I came to visit.... Your dad invited me to drink… until you appeared now." Tsuchio
“Welcome, Triss. This person is Tsuchio-san, who Triss was indebted to in the Academy." Triss father
“No no, it is not so. I have not done anything serious, really." Tsuchio
“Tsuchio-dono, is your work okay?" Triss
“No problem, everything was finished for today." Tsuchio
“No, it's about tomorrow..." Triss
Tsuchio′s familiars are steadily drinking sake. If they drink like that, maybe they can not get up tomorrow due to a hangover.
“Ah, that's fine. Look, you should try it properly." Tsuchio
...It is true that my father has a very red face, but the same goes for Tsuchio′s women. They must have drank a considerable amount to make my.father, who is a fine drinker, intoxicated. I don't want to change my complexion… but Tsuchio's familiars are really monsters!
“Hehehe, it's quite a nice drink, right ladies..." Triss′s father
“Are you okay? I think you should stop now." Ruu
“The more you worry about a woman, the more flexible the way of training! I don't meet female drinkers like these little women here, therefore I'll put out a special gem" Triss′s father
“We are not drinkers, but rather drunk..." Ruu
“Demons and dwarves, their resistance to alcohol is uneven. As long as you don't drink stock, it is difficult to become drunk." Triss′s father
“Hey, if you drink too much, you will be hurried by a hangover… he doesn't listen." Ruu
As Ruu and the others worried about him, my father brought one big bottle of wine from the warehouse. The brand is....
“Ah, that is dwarf crush! Before that, it is a very strong liquor that makes you drunk regardless of whatever dwarf you are! It was used in battles long ago! Because the taste is exceptional, it is a gem that is still drunk!" Triss
“Is not that strong, or is not it possible to drink alcohol like this?" Tsuchio
“Do you not drink Tsuchio-dono?" Triss
“I'm not drinking much so I'll drink sipper when I drink." Tsuchio
While doing so, the extraordinary dwarf crush is poured into everyone's cup. And they all drank together.
“...He, ladies, drink this.” Triss′s father
“Ah, this is tasty."
“Sweet potato? I prefer dry."
“Hee, it feels like you can see dwarfs getting hooked."
“Shall we have another cup?"
“...Not at all, it shows its effect..."
So, my father had fallen asleep; he fell down on the desk and snored greatly. Ruu and the others continue to one after another. It is frightening....
“Good grief, don’t be so stubborn. Triss, I will put father to sleep, so keep Tsuchio-san and the others accompanied."
“Un, Understood.” Triss
My mother carried my father to his room. The dwarf crush was gone in the blink of an eye.
“You didn't have to drink everything indeed. You will smell like alcohol."
“I drank delicious sake after a long time..." Ruu
“Father, I got a little drunk. Please embrace me and let's go home..." Lime
“Lime is not drunk. You let Tsuchio think you are drunk so that he will carry you!" Rin
“As usual, Rin's thoughts are complex and bizarre. Are you drunk?" Triss
“Not at all.... Bad, Triss." Rin
“ No, my father gave it, so I do not mind." Triss
Good sake is best to be drunk by a good drinker. If you just want to get drunk, you can drink something else.
“Well then, we are about to leave." Tsuchio
“Eh, you want to go home now? I wish you could stay here." Triss
“Triss will be working tomorrow, right? It's not good if you stay up late.“ Tsuchio
“I'm not a child anymore!" Triss
“Haahaahaa!” Tsuchio
Good grief, Tsuchio-dono… always treating me as a child. Even if I look so, I'm already an adult! I became an adult!
“Well, I feel relieved that you′re doing fine. Lucas wanted to contact you, so send him a letter.” Tsuchio
“Have you met Lucas-dono?" Triss
“Just a while ago." Tsuchio
Muu...am I second to Lucas? As usual, those two are good friends.
“I went to see him at work. If I come here first, the order would be reversed." Tsuchio
“...You have a lot of work to do." Triss
“Yes, but it's rewarding. The same for Triss?" Tsuchio
“Of course!” Triss
Our work is an important job to protect the people of this town. It is a very fulfilling job to carry a big responsibility.
“I will send you a letter next time! With good liquor!" Triss
“It looks promising, I'm looking forward to it.” Tsuchio
Then, the appearances of Tsuchio and his familiars are overwhelmed by the darkness. As a daughter of a liquor store owner, I will choose a sake that suits Tsuchio! I will send it to Lucas too!
