As I moved from the area where Shigenobu-san’s group is hanging out to the next one…… I found another unusual combination. One of them was someone I know very well…… Noir-san, but the one with her was Rachel-san.
Rachel-san, the head of the Knight Order of Symphonia Kingdom, and Noir-san…… Ahh~~ Perhaps they knew each other back when Noir-san was active as an Adventurer?
[Hello, Noir-san, Rachel-san. Thank you for coming today.]
[Hello, Miyama-san. Thank you for the pleasant party.]
[If it isn’t Miyama-sama, it’s been a long time. Even though we’ve only had limited interaction, I’m honored to have received an invitation.]
Seeing Noir-san, who greets me with a gentle smile, and Rachel-san, who greets me with a neat bow, I couldn’t help smiling.
[You two are acquainted with each other? I suppose it was when you were adventurers?]
[Yes, that’s indeed the case. There are times when Knight Order and the Adventurers would jointly take down enemy units, so the Highest-ranking Adventurer at that time, Noir-san, and I often shared the front lines together.]
[How nostalgic. I’m very grateful to you for your help back then.]
As I thought, the two of them really had worked together in subjugating monsters…… I suppose they’re so-called comrade-in-arms.
[Noir-dono was an exceptional talent, and I felt it was regrettable when I heard about her retirement. Given that it was due to health issues though, it can’t be helped.]
[It had already been getting tough for me to fight at that time. It might also be that I relaxed a bit because Lu-chan has become skilled enough to be called a full-fledged adventurer…… but it has become difficult for me to continue my activities as an adventurer.]
[Come to think of it, even back when we first met, you seemed to be suffering from anemia.]
Nowadays, Noir-san seems to be healthy, and according to Luna-san, she hasn’t had any episodes of anemia recently and seems to be doing well. However, when I first met her, she was suffering quite a bit on the roadside, so it’s clear that continuing her activities as an adventurer was indeed difficult for her.
[But now, Noir-dono’s full of vitality. Have you completely recovered from anemia?]
[Yes. I have become completely healthy since I started taking in Miyama-san’s warm essence into my body.]
[……Huh? Eh?]
[Thanks to this, my complexion has improved, and I seem to have gotten healthy enough to even consider resuming my adventuring career. But well, I’ve become quite addicted to Miyama-san’s essence that I’m feeling a bit immodest for always desiring it. Personally, I would like to have more, but Dr. Vier is very strict……]
[……A- Ahh, so that’s how it is…… So you two had such……]
[No, phrasing!? It’s a misunderstanding! You’re getting it wrong!]
It’s not like Noir-san was lying. However, the way she said it was so badly worded that Rachel-san didn’t understand that she was talking about blood.
I mean, when she said it with flushed cheeks and an ecstatic expression on her face, one full of allure, even I, who knew the situation, couldn’t help but be taken aback and my reaction was delayed.
[Come to think of it, Noir-dono lost her husband long ago, didn’t you? I’m a Demon who was an Undead, and my husband is also an Undead, so there are some aspects that are difficult for me to sympathize with, but I’m genuinely delighted to see you finding a new love and becoming more positive.]
[Yes. Miyama-san already has a firm hold of my heart after all.]
[Wait, Noir-san!?]
The scenario has been completed with Rachel-san misunderstanding, and while Noir-san probably realizes the mistake, she doesn’t seem particularly inclined to deny it, and instead seems to be going along with it.
Casting a fleeting glance my way, Noir-san had a mischievous smile on her face. It made me think that, despite their differences, being mother and daughter, there are similarities between her and Luna-san…… That aside though, how am I going to clear up Rachel-san’s misunderstandings……
[Afterword]
Serious-senpai: [Rather than kidding, I feel like Noir’s nonchalantly being serious there.]
