New Evolution (2)

-Fresia, what kind of words are those?

“R, right! Saying not returning!”

“What meaning is there?”

At Fresia’s words the surprised Kkanjuk, Amelia, Paulen asked in order.

Unlike the flustering ones Fresia answered wearing only a calm smile as if already firmed the heart.

“As the words. I won’t return to the Holy City and will remain here. So Ventus, sorry but can’t grant your request.”

-No, so why saying will remain here...

“Because I want to do so.”

Fresia approached beside Kkanjuk and held the hand bone.

“Now I don’t want to part with you, Ventus. From now I want to continue being by your side.”

-What!?

“Saintess Fresia!?”

“Oh my!”

“Eh? Huh? O. Oooo...”

At Fresia’s confession that was completely unexpected Kkanjuk’s jawbone opened wide.

Kkanjuk.

Nickname Free Spirit.

Human time name Ventus Frail.

While alive.

No, combining the time after becoming a lich the first time hearing a love confession.

What was surprised wasn’t only Kkanjuk.

At the respected Fresia’s love confession Amelia also couldn’t help but be surprised.

The Fresia who always seemed benevolent and somehow transcendent confessing, and that to a companion who became a lich.

Even Gracie who already knew Fresia has a heart for Ventus Frail was greatly surprised at the sudden confession.

The one who adapted right away to this atmosphere was none other than Nellin.

“When did you guys pair up?”

-P, pairing up! Originally I and Fresia that, that kind of relationship...!

“Hyung, what is pairing up?”

“Heard somewhere... ah, yeah didn’t it come out when the herb grandma told the old story of living with her deceased grandpa?”

“Th, then the Heavenly Law mage and the healing Saintess married?”

When Dep brought out the word marriage Kkanjuk was startled.

-Marriage! Don’t even say words that don’t exist!

“S, sorry!

“Of course we didn’t marry. Didn’t even date. But the fact that I am yearning for Ventus is true.”

-Heup! Uh, uuuu...!?

“Ooo~.”

At the continuing too hot confession Kkanjuk was at a loss for words and Nellin smirked and watched the situation.

-Wh, wh, when on earth from...

“Clearly the time holding this heart would have been when traveling with everyone. But the time realizing this heart is yearning... foolishly after accepting that you suffered an accident and died.”

-Uh, hmm. Th, that was, that was, w, was.

“Puhahaha! Look at stuttering words so much! Should have made other guys see this appearance too!”

Kkanjuk currently couldn’t distinguish if this is reality.

Because days of not even thinking about romance at all!

But suddenly Fresia confessed that she yearned for himself.

That Fresia who always was gentle and gave big trust to companions.

Even Kkanjuk while alive who thought romance itself is a story far from himself had thought to the extent that Fresia or Nellin overflow with charm sexually.

However thinking a companion overflows with charm and himself connecting with that companion are separate stories.

Therefore Kkanjuk currently was too flustered and couldn’t understand this situation.

Along with the intense bewilderment experienced for the first time even though clearly a lich the sensation of cold sweat and the heart pounding wildly was being felt.

No matter how the appearance is a skeleton Fresia could overlap the appearance while alive from Kkanjuk’s actions.

The appearance of not knowing what to do while shedding cold sweat felt cute and lovely.

“So let’s make it that I die together with Ventus in this battle like this. That side would be easier to gain sympathy, instead leave conveying the words to Amelia.”

“Yes!?”

“Saintess Fresia, that...”

Could understand the heart of not wanting to part because loving Kkanjuk.

But even so suggesting to disguise as dying was too bold and radical words.

Fresia also knew she was saying radical words herself.

But from the moment knowing the fact that Ventus is still alive even as a lich, the heart that started running like a runaway locomotive couldn’t be stopped.

“I am also at the age to retire now. Already there are two Saintesses so isn’t it natural for me to step down now?”

“But I, I am still far lacking than Saintess Fresia.”

“Lacking just grow and fill, Amelia. If really hard come find. I’ll counsel as much as you want.”

“But if parting here the method to come again...”

“Ventus says always watching Budul? If hard when together with Budul please tell. I’ll ask Ventus and come meet.”

-W, wait a moment Fresia! No matter what too sudden!

“Oh my, Ventus. By any chance dislike me being by the side?”

-A, no! Not that. Not but...

Toward the trailing off Kkanjuk Nellin smirked.

“Kekekek. Hey, you also know. That Fresia is secretly extremely stubborn.”

-Don’t just laugh and you also say something, Nellin! Do you think it’s okay for Fresia to be by my side!

“That’s a matter you and Fresia decide. Why ask me? Don’t stay like a coward and you also hurry and decide.”

-Uk...!

If about magic can confidently say can give answers promptly because there is nothing unknown whatever.

But the problem placed before the eyes now was harder to give an answer than any magic he has solved.

However thinking if not quickly giving an answer here something big will happen in various ways Kkanjuk desperately thought.

-Fresia! You, you being by my side I also... I also am happy.

“Really?”

-Yeah! But can’t postpone to later not now?

“Why?”

-If saying living together preparation! Yeah! Preparation is needed. Look here!

Kkanjuk spread both arms.

-This place is not a place comfortable for a person to live! First if you also live better to prepare...

“Then better to prepare together. I’ll also help.”

-A, no, even if helping to live as a person here needs quite a time!

“Then not here but preparing a residence at another place would be fine.”

-Residence at another place!?

“Yes, if Ventus’s magic making a temporary place to sleep is quick? This place also according to Ventus’s words just a place that happened to continue being shut in, not necessarily have to live here.”

-Uh, th, that is so but...

“Moreover if taking that long... I can also become right?”

-Wh, what becoming?

“Undead. If casting the magic Ventus became a lich on me too would fit perfectly? Ah! Even thinking myself a good idea!”

-What!?

“Eh? Hey, Fresia. That sincere?”

No matter how Nellin couldn’t help but be flustered at Fresia’s statement of herself becoming undead too.

Fresia nodded without a single hesitation.

“Yes, I am sincere. Thinking about it even if continuing by Ventus’s side like this my lifespan would be at most about 20 years from now. Rather than that better to become undead together with Ventus and be together?”

Becoming undead herself and staying by the loved one’s side.

A statement that could hardly be thought as a Saintess’s words.

But thinking differently means Fresia’s love toward the man called Ventus Frail is that sincere.

-F, Fresia. Th, th, that much me...

Fresia’s love that only advances smashed the wall of bewilderment and squarely hit Kkanjuk’s heart.

And that love made even the now heartless Kkanjuk feel the emotion of pounding.

“Ventus, okay to be here?”

-Th, th... yeah. Fresia. Okay to be...

“Huhu, please take care from now.”

Kkanjuk in the end couldn’t stop Fresia.

Fresia’s statement of not caring even if becoming undead made not only Amelia, but Paulen, Gracie, and even Godric’s group’s mouths shut.

Because realized nothing can stop the current Fresia no matter what is said.

+++

Around the time Fresia was declaring she would live together with Kkanjuk.

“Tongtong! Hurray!”

““Hurray!””

“Tongtong! Hurray!”

““Hurray!””

‘Hurray!’

The slime was receiving the tossing and being treated truly as a hero.

That was also because Chilture surviving was almost thanks to the slime.

Wanted to buy time against the 2 orc champions.

Even that thought was a gamble.

But surpassing expectations not only buying time but knocking down all 2!

There after knocking down the 2 helped the adventurers fighting the orc pack.

Thanks to that in this battle there were adventurers who suffered serious injuries, but not a single casualty.

The joy of surviving in the battle entered with the thought of might die this time couldn’t be expressed in words.

At the same time the greatest meritorious person who led this battle to victory.

The favor toward the slime truly soared endlessly.

After ending the battle sent the injured with the priests to the temple, then the adventurers each took rest.

The adventurers who consumed a lot of stamina from a very fierce battle all returned to the place they stay and fell asleep.

Meanwhile the guild employees moved busily while the adventurers sleep.

First dragged the fallen orc champion’s corpse to the village and secured the loot, and also had to call back the village people who left while evacuating.

Around the time the fallen asleep adventurers wake up the village people who were evacuating were returning to the village again.

“Th, really safe.”

“Really dealt with the orc pack that even has orc champions?”

The village people were bewildered even seeing the safe village, but only after seeing the two orc champion corpses the guild employee moved inside the village in advance accepted the situation.

And what continued was of course a festival.

When the orc pack first came held a festival among adventurers inside the guild, but this time held a festival in the whole village.

Not only the village not being destroyed by the orc pack is happy, but the village’s income increasing a lot was also a matter to congratulate.

Unless a big city the amount of monsters the guild can disassemble has a limit.

Therefore villages like Chilture that have many monsters around but not that big scale help the guild disassemble monsters and receive some profit.

Even with only the orc pack that came a few days ago was at the level of two months usual, but this time 2 A-rank monster orc champions were subjugated.

Not the village becoming a mess but rather money of a degree not worrying for several months rolled in, so of course all village people cheered and opened a festival for the adventurers.

And the village people who came to know the greatest meritorious person in all this matter is the slime tossed the slime several times together with the adventurers and threw upward.

““Tongtong, hurray!””

The slime became a hero not only to the adventurers but also to the village people.

The slime receiving the tossing several times during the festival and continuously being recommended food and receiving thanks.

‘Festival good!’

Naturally the slime came to like the festival.

[Soft Queen]▶Because of human guys can’t know my kin’s new evolution aaaa!!!

Because the explanation about Mighty Slime was postponed enjoying the festival the slime queen’s insides only became stuffy.
