Chapter 13 - The First Slave The slave trading post Sebas told me about was located in a back alley rather close to the nobles’ district. There were several places selling slaves in this area; it was pretty close to the nobles’ district, probably because only nobles could afford slaves. “...so it’s here.” I was standing in front of the building marked on Sebas’ map. It was easily the largest building in the alley. I opened the door leading inside and a clerk immediately greeted…-

Chapter 14 - Ephyr’s Past and Haruto’s Truth It happened about one year before Haruto bought Ephyr. She lived in a hidden elven village located in Tonitia, a large forested area on the border between the Perdis and Glicente kingdoms. Elves did not occupy large tracts of land or built countries: they lived in hidden settlements all over the world, which were all independent from each other. Ephyr’s home village was the largest of such settlements. It did not have any exceptional authority…

Interlude - The Heroes’ Search Continues Vaana, the border town of the kingdom of Glicente closest to the kingdom of Perdis. A Hero party formed by five of Haruto’s classmates — Tendo Koji, Ichinomiya Suzuno, Asakura Natsuki, Shinonome Aoi, and Mogami Shinya — was now visiting this town. In Glicente, the royal family told them that “Haruto was apparently dead”, but they believed he was still alive somewhere. In a forest near the Glicente royal capital, a merchant named Gassul told them…

Chapter 15 - Reunion Three days after I bought Ephyr, I visited the royal palace to see Dillan, together with Finne, Iris, and Asha. I had sent a letter about Ephyr the day she told us her story, but the king’s reply said that he wanted to talk about it in person. We thus waited for her to recover completely, then headed to the palace to report. That day, Ephyr would stay in the residence, to receive Lyla and Mia’s maid training. As soon as we entered the palace and were led to a guest room,…

Chapter 16 - Another One Joins the Group “W-w-w-w-wives….!?” Ichinomiya reacted to the truth bomb by turning purple, her mouth flapping like a fish. I ignored her for a moment and protested to Finne and Iris first. “Hey, you didn’t have to just blurt it out!!” “B-but I am your first wife, Sir Haruto...” “Haruto? Does it trouble you in any way for us to state the truth?” “N-no, that’s not the point, but...” Frantically thinking of a way to explain the situation, I turned towards…

Chapter 17 - Rest & Relax After deciding our plans for the near future, we returned to the residence. I called Sebas and the others in the guest room, introduced Tendo’s group, and told them what happened in the castle. “ — is that so, milord. Quite an unexpected reunion...o’ Noble Heroes, friends of our Lord Haruto, I am Sebastian, a butler in service of this residence. Pleased to make your acquaintance.” “My name is Lyla, I am a maid in service of this residence. Please do not…

Chapter 8 - The Carnival before the Promotion Ceremony The next day, we started training early in the morning. The promotion ceremony was scheduled two days from now, but I wanted to be back in the capital today. Because of that, I had to train Finne as much as possible today. I planned to make her fight repeatedly, so she could get used to the katana and her Unique Skill. Once she felt confident enough, she could try fighting multiple Ogres at the same time. ~ Thanks to the training, Finne could start…

Chapter 9 - Promotion Ceremony The following day was the scheduled date for the promotion ceremony. Finne and I, wearing our usual clothes, ate breakfast in the inn. I expected to feel nervous but was actually pretty relaxed, maybe thanks to my usual attire. Jayn and Sofia then approached us. “We’re going to see the ceremony too, Haruto.” “We decided to close the inn until the evening, actually.” Both of them had proud smiles on their faces. “Really, thank you...but is that really all…
