Chief.

Chief Bashbal jumped up, startled, and let outUhyoo!? in a pathetic voice when I called to him from about two metres behind.

Very, very slowly, the chief turned over to my direction somewhat timidly.

When I grinned and smiled at him, chief responded with a stiff smile.

Hey~. What, are you doing?

O, ohh This, this is, well, you know

People who dont answer immediately, I hate that kind of people.

Hii!? P-please, pardon me!! It is regarding Nervidono, Ive come here to make a request to Sefi-sama about her!!

A request?

As I inclined my head, chief repeatedly nodded his head while cold sweat dripped from his body.

To be honest, I wish to talk ro Nervidono!

No.

Instant reply!?

For some reason, he squeezed out a hoarse voice while trying to appeal earnestly. [1]

I, as a devout believer of the Heros Creed, wish to have a talk with Knight-dono from the military order!

Then, you will not babble anything about me, right?

Of course not! [2]

Wasnt there a bit of a time lag just now?

Well, I have already shown my true self to Nervisan, so it will not cause much problems if she has a talk with the Chief.

Since I kept the secret that I could wield magic from Nervisan and also chief, I suppose it would not be troublesome.

I stared at the sky, pretending I was giving it a thought. [3]

Hmm. I guess its okay.

I acted like I was still reluctant about it, then gave him my consent.

After expressing his gratitude with athank you very much!, he immediately rushed into my residence. What a lively gramps.

Well, though he always causes me trouble, normally he is a kind gramps. I quite like him.

Moreover, he treasures everyone in the village and his judgment is always spot on, and that very judgment has saved this village from not a few dilemmas, or so Ive heard.

Regarding him losing control of himself, its not really that different from my mother.

As I thought those thoughts, I stood still for a moment, hesitating whether I should go back home or not, but in the end I slowly shuffled towards the house.

Then, the curiosity towards Chief and Nervisans discussion led me to eavesdrop on them from the entrance door.

And,

Ye-yes. So, the Creation Goddess giving a power to the chosen one, that kind of theory is the most likely

Then it means that the power dwells inside Hero-samas soul itself, could it be, it might not mean that its repeatedly reincarnated!?

Yes. So, maybe it is not impossible to have two people who bear the power of Hero-sama.

I see! In short, rather than being a Hero-samas reincarnation, Sefirisama is the Goddess-samas newly chosen one. He is Hero-samas successor, isnt he? Ha ha ha~!! [4]

I violently opened the door with Ban!! sound, with a wide grinning smile and sunlight as my background. [5]

Then I pointed outside using my thumb and I said this with low voice.

Bashbal. Come with me for a moment.[6]

It seems that everything I had done before was still not enough to rehabilitate a religious fanatic.

while giving Chiefs the , I added some more and then , since it wouldnt be enough if not to that extent

On that day, Chiefs troubled voice resounded throughout the village all day long.
