Chapter 448 Second Day of the ‘Grand Market’ (Part V)
Edited by: Kanaa-senpai
(Hiroya’s POV)
I returned to the Clan house with Gunilla.
”I wonder where Romy went…?”
”Don’t rightly know… just…”
”?”
Gunilla showed a slightly worried expression as she stepped through the entrance.
”Romy seems to’ve gone off somewhere, lookin’ for someone, all flustered-like…”
Yeah.
I thought the same.
When I suddenly shifted my gaze somewhere, things got strange all of a sudden.
”Romy… when she was up in the Royal Capital, she mentioned somethin’. I’m real curious ’bout that…”
”…Did she see ‘someone’ from her unpleasant memories of the Royal Capital?”
We stopped in the entrance hall and continued our conversation.
Gunilla muttered softly, “It might be…” in response to my words.
”Hiroya~! Are you back?”
I heard Liz’s voice from the second floor, my next date partner.
”For now, if you don’t come back by night, I’ll go looking for you. ──And this,”
I offered Gunilla the ‘pinky ring’ that everyone is giving as a memento of our Grand Market date.
I actually intended to give one to Romy too.
”H-Hiroya… what in the world is this?”
”You wear it on your pinky. A pinky ring symbolizes ‘seizing opportunities’ or ‘good fortune’.”
Saying that, I took Gunilla’s left hand and slipped the ring onto her pinky.
”Ah… from Hiroya… th-thank ya…”
Gunilla smiled with a bright red face, looking adorable.
She softly murmured, “I’m so happy…” while lovingly stroking the ring on her pinky.
”Well then, best of luck with yer work at the Clan house. ──Had myself a fine time on our date.”
Waving goodbye to Gunilla, I headed towards the stairs to the second floor.
”Hiroya! I-I want ya to go out with me again…”
”Got it! See you again!”
Leaving a smiling Gunilla behind, I went up to the second floor.
* * *
”Welcome back, Hiroya! Next, it’s me and Simona, right?”
”A date sounds good, but… I want you to hold me, like, right now…”
Liz and Simona sat on the sofa in the open space on the second floor, looking up at me.
One had a bubbling excitement, while the other had an expression of melting desire.
”But it’s a date, right? There are various merchants here with all kinds of shops… And there are customers on the first floor for business meetings too.”
”I was holdin’ it together till just now, but the second I saw Hiroya, I just… turned like this.”
Liz looked at Simona beside her, who seemed troubled.
”Y-Yeah. I want to go on a date… but? You know, afterwards, we can sneak off, right? I mean, Liz can come too… You can totally take me apart, both of you…”
Simona grasped Liz’s arm as if pleading and looked up at her.
”Well… that would be my wish come true too, but…”
Liz turned her troubled expression from Simona back towards me.
”Then… let’s hit Della’s inn after the date… if there’s a room available… cool?”
Simona and Liz smiled widely at my answer.
… Hey Liz….
* * *
”Well, they said the rooms at Della’s were all full yesterday.”
”What? Nah, that ain’t gonna work!”
Hearing Liz’s murmur, Simona, who was holding the reins at the carriage driver’s seat, hurriedly turned around.
We were delayed in leaving, so we decided to go by carriage and leave it at the guild.
”If things go well, there might be an available room?”
I reassured Simona and got her to face forward.
You know.
For Simona, who usually enjoyed play with Helena and Frieda in addition to sex with me, the ‘teasing play’ was too harsh.
She seemed to reach her limit just before the final day.
I had to think about it.
”If it’s not available… we could always head over to the ‘Rose Hip’ Clan house…”
”I see. That could work…”
”No, we can’t cause that kind of trouble, alright?”
At Simona’s outrageous suggestion, even Liz agreed, so I quickly interrupted.
* * *
”So… this is what you two consider a ‘date’?”
”Hiroya doesn’t need to drink. Just being with us is enough.”
”Yeah, yeah. You still got, like, 4 years till you can drink with us. I just wanna soak up the vibe.”
The bar next to the barracks is lively, especially with the ‘Grand Market’ going on, even though it’s still before evening.
”Well, if you guys are happy, that’s good. But… ah… I want to drink too…”
Liz and Simona wanted a ‘drinking date.’
And they wanted it with me in ‘Hiroya’s form.’
Even though I’m in Hiroya’s form, I can’t drink.
But maybe because of this form, the beer that Liz and Simona are drinking looks incredibly delicious.
”See… in a place like this, it wouldn’t do to come as Hiroya, right?”
”We wanna drink and be spoiled by you.”
Feeling the warmth of the two leaning against me, I order a cold tea from the waitress behind the counter.
”It’s fine to be spoiled, but don’t drink too much, okay? Just a little, just a little.”
”No way… maybe it’s ’cause I’m with you, but this beer’s so freakin’ good♡”
”I get it, Simona. I never thought drinking with such a handsome guy would be this enjoyable♡”
As they said this, the two of them pressed even closer to me with their soft bodies.
The envious gazes of the men watching us 3 are painful.
No, it feels kind of nice.
(Of course, I’m being flirted with by these two beautiful women.)
They are probably people who came along with the caravans from various places.
There are many faces here that I don’t see in Raetia.
(Sorry… aren’t they beautiful? These girls are mine.)
Just as I thought this with a sense of superiority, Liz and Simona kissed my cheeks.
”Ooh la la♡ Hiroya♡”
”You’re our man, after all♡”
”You guys smell a bit like alcohol, don’t you? ──Wait, is that your second drink already!”
””Ooh, cheers♡””
The two raised their filled mugs with beaming smiles.

(Simona’s POV)
(Drinking with Hiroya… this is the best♡)
Of course, Hiroya still can’t drink.
But just sitting next to them as ‘adult Hiroya’ is enough.
I take a hearty gulp of beer from my mug and glance at Hiroya next to me.
Holding my glass, I sip the brown liquid from ‘adult Hiroya’.
That sight is truly picturesque and he’s really handsome.
(After all, he’s the guy I’m totally fallin’ for. Just looking at him makes me ‘wet’…♡)
”Hmm? What’s wrong, Simona?”
Hiroya suddenly looks my way and asks, as I stare blankly at him.
”Ah… no, it’s nothin’…”
”I see. …Just don’t drink too much, okay?”
I can’t help but feel embarrassed as Hiroya smiles and says that, looking down.
(Damn… this is the best…♡)
”Simona, you were staring because Hiroya looks cool, right?”
Liz, sitting beside Hiroya, wraps her arms around his shoulder and leans forward to tease me.
”Y-yeah, but… is that a problem?”
”Nope, I’m the same way, so it’s all good.”
Liz boldly replies as she gives me a thumbs up and takes a swig from her mug.
”Ah… that’s Ms. Liz and Ms. Simona, right?”
”S-so the man sitting in the middle is…”
”No way!? That’s ‘adult Hiroya’!?”
”I’ve heard the rumors, but… he can really turn into an adult…”
The adventurer girls sitting at the table behind us whisper among themselves.
”I wonder what kind of face he has?”
”Should we call out to him and see if he turns around?”
I could hear them discussing that.
””””Hiroya-kun♡””””
A chorus of voices reached my ears.
”Huh…?”
Hiroya responds with that and turns around.
””””Whoa──!?””””
The girls that Hiroya gazed at… their movements froze.
”Wow! Just as the rumors say, he’s a handsome guy…”
”Ah… this is bad.”
”I mean… he’s incredibly beautiful♡”
”No… I’m getting wet…♡”
Liz and I glared at the girls staring blankly at Hiroya.
”Hey… Liz and Simona, don’t make such scary faces. ──It’d ruin your pretty faces.”
Hiroya whispered that near our ears… and I felt wet too.
