It's Easy to Take Care of a Live-in Hero!Ch39.1 - Animal and Young Boy (3)

Once Ray stopped crying, I pulled him by the hand back to the field. The squirrel clung to me the whole way there. I was wondering what happened, when Ray shrugged his shoulders, his gesture almost like a mature adult’s. ENFSU

“She’s just jealous.”

The moment I heard those words, I burst into laughter. A small squirrel that protected her love like a warrior, eh. The squirrel jumped to my arm, and I stroked its back with my fingertips.

“So you’re jealous. How cute. You don’t have to worry, though. I won’t take away your owner, okay?”

“Mel is my younger sister, you know?” 5kLoVT

What did he say?

Speechless, I looked down at him, my gaze meeting those crystal-clear purple eyes. Unfortunately, he didn’t seem like he was joking. 

I stared at the adorable fluffy squirrel that was tilting her tiny head. No matter how I looked at her, she was a splendid animal. But he was saying that she was his sister and… Sig’s daughter…?  

It became increasingly difficult for me to understand how the hero’s clan left their descendants.

“I think she will be satisfied if Asha tells her ‘I like you’.”

Sig would arrive home soon. His wife would surely come together with him. What should I do now? I just wanted to hide this instant. But no matter where I hid in this world, it would be useless.

I borrowed the shower, got changed, and returned to the living room. At that moment, I noticed a small figure standing in the kitchen.

“What are you making for dinner? I’ll help you,” I called out to Ray, wanting to forget about the pain in my heart. His small head turned towards me.  QZOzCl

“I want to make father’s favorite food…”

“I see. So those are the ingredients?” I came to stand next to him and took a look at the kitchen bench. Stacked next to the cutting board were potatoes, carrots, and onions…

“…Are you making curry?” I asked, voice trembling. Ray was taking the chicken out of the refrigerator but returned to my side, his eyes going wide in surprise. 

As I wondered what happened, it turned out that I was crying again. I hurriedly wiped my wet cheeks with the cuff of my shirt and showed him a smile. “The onions stung my eyes…”  dPdV9H

Even I thought that it was a pitiful excuse. And yet, Ray took the rest of the onions that hadn’t been chopped far away from me. What a really good child. 

A kind child with high awareness. Even his direct nature was similar to Sig.

I looked around the carefully-arranged house, and I was sure that his wife was a wonderful person. She must be a beautiful woman that was suitable for him.

After we finished preparing dinner, I visited the God’s tree alone. I lost my phone when I fell into the valley, so I couldn’t get in touch with God. bW6u2I

“He’s happy. Surrounded by a wonderful family…”

Even if I wasn’t here.

I leaned against the tree trunk, slowly letting my body slide down to sit on the ground.  I always went around in circles with my feelings. I really was a narrow-minded person, what a girly man. Or rather, I was greedy. So greedy that I amazed myself. 

“…Sig.” NYDOrT

I wanted to meet him. But I was scared to.

What kind of face should I have on? How should I look at him when we meet? No matter how much I kept up appearances, those purple eyes would surely be able to see through me in an instant. My feelings of love,  love to the point that I couldn’t bear it anymore, would definitely reach him. 

“Those words alone are enough.”

After all, he could properly see my lingering attachment to my “original world.” ibsg9m

He also knew that I would leave this place someday. That I would leave my family, even though from my mouth came the words  “I’ll stay here.”

That’s why, this pain was a punishment I deserved. I had to accept reality.

Because, those beautiful jewels were no longer mine.

You are the one who said that I should be greedy. TBF2I3

All of a sudden, I recalled those nostalgic words. 

Was it when we had lunch near the spring, or when we held hands under the God’s tree? Sig wasn’t a greedy person, that’s why I…

I wanted to give him whatever he wanted.

“You don’t have to mind me. I… want you to fulfill your own wishes.” cEldyv

Nevertheless, he was someone who always put others before himself. Always worried about other people.

I still haven’t heard Sig’s real wish.

A rustle broke out over my head. Thinking it was the squirrel again, I glanced at the treetop. Immediately, something collided with my forehead and my vision grew dark.

With my consciousness rapidly receding and my senses going hazy, I caught the scent of something sweet and sour under my nose―  4Nz6hT

As if I could hear that person’s voice in the distance.
