An Incompetent Explorer Who Failed to Make His High School Debut but Mastered Being a Human Being - Chapter 319

Episode 319: The Saint’s crisis

 

 We recover secrets that expose the abominations of the country’s upper echelons and the country’s dark side, and return to where Noelle is.

 

 

-Baki!

 

 

 We don’t have to worry about anyone anymore, so we just walk and destroy the fence and enter the premises.

 

 

 It’s almost dawn as the sky turns white.

 

 

“Nushi-sama ~ !! How cruel ~ !!”

 

 

 There is a creature that comes down to us in the form of a bat from the sky.

 

 

“Nn? Ah, Mira?”

 

“That’s right!! What do you mean by leaving me to go somewhere!? I don’t like being alone ~ .”

 

 

 The bat unfolds before my eyes and hugs me.

 

 

“Oops. Ahh ~ , my bad, my bad. I went to defeat the enemy right away, so I forgot to bring you.”

 

 

 She loses her balance and almost falls, but after catching her, I reply with a wry smile.

 

 

 It’s bad ~ , I completely forgot. I entrusted Mira with reconnaissance from the sky and she communicated via Shia, so she wasn’t nearby and we left her here.(TN:I also forgot the noja-loli existed for a bit …)

 

 

“It’s absolutely cruel!!”

 

 

 Mira glares at my face with tears in her eyes.

 

 

 Her face isn’t scary at all, but rather cute, and I can think of irrelevant impressions like her cheeks look soft and pliable, but I shake my head and shake it off.

 

 

“Sorry, sorry. I’ll buy you something sweet, so please fix your mood.”

 

“Muu ~ , it can’t be helped. It’s a deal with all-you-can-eat!!”

 

 

 When I stroke her head with a ‘pon pon’, Mira’s expression turns into a satisfied smirk. However, did she immediately think it was bad, she immediately tightens her face and adds a condition while switching to a reluctant expression.

 

 

 If that’s all there is to it, there’s no problem.

 

 

“Oh, that’s fine. I’ll take you next time.”

 

“Umu. Then I’ll forgive you!!”

 

 

 When I accept the terms, Mira smiles and forgives me, then she buries her face in my chest.

 

 

“Nnhaa ~ !!! Su~ha ~ su~ha. The smell of a young man!! It’s fragrant!!”

 

“Stop it!!”

 

“Buhee!?”

 

 

 When I wondered what she was going to do, she inhaled my scent and made an ecstatic expression that I couldn’t believe she was a little girl, so I dropped Mira to the ground.

 

 

“What are you doing!! I was enjoying Nushi-sama’s scent.”

 

“Don’t do anything that makes it seem bad!!”

 

“That’s right!! I’m the only one who can ‘kunka kunka’ my Onii-chan’s smell!!”

 

 

 Nanami answers with a triumphant look and puffs out her chest while trying to stop Mira who is actually trying to sniff my body’s scent while asking me.

 

 

 Since when did such a thing become a rule?

 

 

 The Nanami Rules were enacted without my knowledge.

 

 

“Nn. I want to smell it too.”

 

“Eh!?”

 

 

 Here comes Shia’s unexpected entry into the war.

 

 

 N, no way …

 

 

“N, no, I won’t do that!!”

 

“Right!! I’m not a pervert either.”

 

 

 I look at Amane and Rei, thinking that it might be possible, and they hurriedly wave their hands and shake their heads from side to side.

 

 

 Fuu … As expected, these two seem to have common sense.

 

 

 I am deeply relieved.

 

 

“Haa … Now is not the time to do that. Let’s go to Noelle.”

 

“”Ye ~ es.”” “Nn.”

 

 

 I turn to face the three of them, and Nanami, Mira, and Shia reply and we walk towards Noelle’s hut again.

 

 

-Kon Kon!

 

 

 When I reach the front of the hut, I knock openly from the front. But, there’s no reply.

 

 

“She looked pretty unwell, so did she go to bed right after that?”

 

“That might be the case.”

 

 

 I wait for a while, but there is no response, so when I mutter to myself, Amane picks up my mutter and answers.

 

 

“Hmm, it’s bad to wake her up, so let’s rest until she wakes up.”

 

“Is that okay? We were awake until this time playing, so I’m sleepy.”

 

“Well then, let’s do that.”

 

 

 I turn around and decide to wait for Noelle to wake up after interacting with Amane who is closest to me.

 

 

 We played all day long, and suddenly this happened.

 

 

-Gigii ~

 

 

 However, just as we are about to get ready to rest, the door slowly opens and Noelle pops out from inside.

 

 

“Who is it, desu …?”

 

 

 Noelle’s face is so pale that she looks like she might collapse at any moment.

 

 

“W, we’re the ones who were asked to help you. A, are you okay?”

 

“Eh, ah …”

 

“Oops.”

 

 

 I ask without thinking, but as soon as Noelle sees my face, she falls down and I grab her.

 

 

“Yuusha-sama, I’m sorry, desu …”

 

 

 Noelle tries hard to apologize.

 

 

“No, no, please drink this instead of doing that.”

 

“That’s why … that is … I can’t drink, desu …”

 

 

 I immediately offer the Elixir to Noelle, who looks extremely unwell, but Noelle refuses to drink, probably thinking that the case hasn’t been resolved yet.

 

 

“There are no more military or high-ranking officials to harm you. Of course, neither will the people be killed, so please rest assured and drink it.”

 

“I see … is that so? Fufufu! … After all, you … You are my Hero, desu ~ …”

 

“Hey!!”

 

 

 I try to hand over the Elixir by explaining again that there is no one to threaten Noelle anymore, but as soon as she learned that the people would not be harmed, Noelle loses strength, and I shout in surprise at Noelle who suddenly becomes heavy.

 

 

“What’s wrong!? Onii-chan!!”

 

“It’s serious!! Noelle fainted!!”

 

 

 Nanami, seeing that it wasn’t normal, hurriedly calls out to me, so I explain the situation.

 

 

“Would you mind showing me? Even though I look like this, I have some medical knowledge.”

 

“A, ah, got it.”

 

 

 A calm Rei leans forward, so I immediately lay Noelle on the bed in the hut, and Rei begins her diagnosis.

 

 

“This child … will die at this rate …”

 

 

 A few moments later, cruel words come out of the stunned Rei’s mouth.
