Return of the Former Hero

Chapter 192. Former Hero - Greets Parents

Human beings want to be happy during their lives.

There shouldn’t be anyone who is willing to hope for misery.

Although the definition of happiness differs depending on the person, money, fame, status, and women are still synonymous to success.

I was once summoned as a Hero to another world called Andalugia, but it is no exaggeration to say that after I defeated the Demon King, I almost got all of them, but because there were various things, I returned back to Earth from another world.

Even though I don’t know how much money I can earn, I’m sure I’ll get a lot more than that of a typical household.

As for fame, I think I was quite well-known after defeating the demons, winning the fighting tournament, being the teacher of an active-duty Hero, being the husband of the Third Princess, and so on.

As for my social position, I am a local lord of the country and, not to mention, the husband of the Third Princess of the country, which is unimaginable when I was on earth.

Furthermore, I had gained far more power than humans in about three years compared to when I traveled as a Hero back then.

And, more importantly, I had nine brides, all of them are cute and beautiful.

There would be no one who won’t be happy with all of these.

Fuh…Fufufu… Fuhaha!

[What happened to Haru-kun?]

When I was drowning in my happiness moment, Kagura-san raised her face on my lap.

I was alone on a big bed and I was giving Kagura-san a lap pillow right now.

[No, I was thinking that I’m the happiest man alive.]

While saying so, I stroked Kagura-san’s head on my lap.

Her long black hair flows smoothly between my fingers and it is very comfortable.

[Nn…]

When I stroked her head, Kagura-san squinted her eyes and held my thighs with her hand.

After doing so for a while, Kagura-san began to take a nap.

Oops, oh no.

I won’t be able to move now.

Well, whataver.

If I keep giving her a lap pillow for a long time, my legs might get numb but it would be one of happiness so I think that it is also a good thing.

Even for me, it’s an unusual thing to do. I was enjoying Kagura-san’s sleeping face calmly without being mischievous with her boobs while she was asleep. Not long after that, Rithina entered the room after a light knock.

[Ara? Did I interrupt something?]

Rithina said that while looking at Kagura-san sleeping on my lap and then she smiled wryly

[No problem… it’s not a big deal though?]

I’m calm today.

It’s unusual for me to be that way.

Even if I wasn’t calm, it wouldn’t be a bother even if Rithina joined too!

The tension is high.

[Is that so? Then, please excuse me.]

[Please. By all means, my princess.]

When I invited her to the open spot, Rithina smiled and sat down beside me.

Then, Rithina’s long hair sways softly and her sweet scent drifts to me.

Why does the scent of a girl always make me excited? [Note: cause you’re always horny]

[I’m tired of doing all the paperwork so could you give me a lap pillow later?]

Rithina puts her head on my shoulder. It’s really cute when she did that.

[Well, I’ll do it as much as you want.]

[Thank you. I’m looking forward to it.]

Of course, I didn’t have the option to decline because she wanted a lap pillow.

I also put my hand on Rithina’s head and stroked her soft maroon hair.

If Kagura-san’s hair is smooth, Rithina’s hair feels fluffy.

Her loosely wavy hair felt like it was wrapped in cotton.

When I was doing it for a while, she opened her mouth as if Rithina, who had drifted in her own world, had returned to me.

[This is not good. I was about to forget my purpose.]

After Rithina said that, she took a note out of her big cleavage in her big breasts.

Eh, awesome.

Just now, did she show something amazing?

Seriously?

I’ve tasted being sandwiched by Rithina’s breasts in various ways, but I didn’t think she could hold the memo between her cleavage like that.

It’s really odd.

Rithina grinned as I gaze at her cleavage after such a shocking event.

Apparently my reaction was as she expected, there is a trick for that. Kuh…

[Regarding the matter that you wanted to know (…) as expected…Although it will take a while, I am prepared for this schedule… Ahn…mou, Haruto-kun…]

For the time being, Rithina showed me a memo without touching my line of sight.

Her notes were visible even if I didn’t hold it in her hand so I stopped stroking Rithina’s head and turned to her breasts then I hugged her and looked the note through her.

[Oh, it will be ready soon, huh? Alright… Hmm, I see. Around two weeks later?]

I rubbed Rithina’s breasts freely while checking the memo.

So soft.

My fingers sink even though she is wearing clothes.

The girl’s breasts are soft. Of course, I feel that Rithina’s breasts are particularly soft.

It feels like grasping cotton and is soft enough to accept all of my fingers.

However, that doesn’t mean that it’s soft and fluffy, they also feel supreme because they firmly have a repulsive force that assert themselves.

This is amazing.

[Ahn…Nggh…Haa…Nnn.]

Furthermore, if you try to support her breasts from below, you will feel a heavy weight in your hands.

Boing, it’s as if the sound was born for this moment.

I lifted her breasts.

This can only be done by Rithina, Kagura-san, Aura, and also the grown-up Tanya.

If it’s Laurier’s chest, even if you try to lift them, it’s as empty as the sky.

Though that’s also a good thing!

[Hahhh…Mou, Haruto-kun… When I’m done talking, you can touch them as much as you want.]

[Sorry, that’s unintentional just now.]

Because the talk wasn’t able to progress well, let’s hold myself back for a moment.

Rithina’s hand holding the memo was trembling, and she couldn’t read it properly.

It’s all my fault.

I stopped rubbing Rithina’s breasts and switched to doing a soft touch that doesn’t interfere with her explanation.

Unfortunately, the option to take my hand off her breasts isn’t in my dictionary.

[Let’s see… I see. Fumu.]

I checked the dates written in the memo.

There is an approximate schedule and the time required for preparation.

[I’ve got the gist of a general idea. Please handle the minor details. Let me know if there is something that you need.]

[Yes, I understand.]

Our talk ended in no time.

It is also said that it was finished.

[Then, what does Haru-kun mean by that?]

Kagura-san, who was awake before I noticed it, asked me while crouching on my thigh.

[Ah, did we wake you up? That’s right. That’s the story. Kagura-san, please prepare for it too alright?]

[Nn, nnn~…!]

When I answered that, Kagura-san tried to stretch her body.

Inevitably, Kagura-san’s face will be pressed directly against my lower abdomen, especially my vital points.

If you grind it that much with your face…… M-my waist will lose power…!

I can’t stand it anymore.

In front of the two big breasted girls in my harem, there is no way that I could stand it.

The story was already over, Kagura-san woke up, and I was surrounded by two pairs of big breasts.

Do I still need to keep calm?

=====

[Well, everyone. We’ve been discussing it for a while, but Rithina has finally given me a specific schedule. I’d like to ask each of you to prepare in two weeks.]

At the dinner table, I told everyone.

After listening to what I said, my brides suddenly became excited.

Two weeks later, what we are planning to do is… our wedding.

Wedding.

It sounds good.

This was one of the conditions that I requested from Rithina before I took care of the bandits in the city of Aria.

After that, I became a local lord and had my own house so I wanted to have a formal wedding ceremony. Not only because of a verbal promise, but I also want to do that in both name and reality.

Rithina was busy until Aria finally calmed down, during that time I went to mine the magic stones and have more brides, went to Etna’s parents’ house, had a duel with the Princess of the Empire, and when we finally returned home, we went immediately to the Mt. Pable to fight one of the Four Heavenly Kings, but… at long last, I finally managed to hold a wedding ceremony.

However, it seems that only Rithina will have to go to the Royal Capital again at a later date and hold a wedding ceremony accompanied by the King, but that’s it.

[I’m looking forward to seeing my dad and mom for the first time after a long time!]

Sharon clapped her hand and screamed in joy.

Because we were having a wedding ceremony, I had arranged the preparations so that each of my brides’ parents could come.

The ceremony was held in line with the arrival of each of their parents.

Considering the time it takes for them to take a round trip, some of them will take several months.

Back in Japan, even if there was a fair distance, it could be reached in a day. However, that would be difficult in a different world without an airplane.

No, according to the story that I heard, there seems to be a flying boat in the neighboring Empire.

At least it doesn’t seem to be available in the Kingdom of Millis.

…Is it a flying boat?

I wonder why would a flying boat make me excited?

I definitely want to see it someday.

Even if the purpose is the same, my heart won’t be that excited with an airplane. Although I’ve never been on an airplane, it still won’t make me excited at all.

Perhaps, wouldn’t it be possible for me to ride it if I asked Shea?

For example, I would like to have a small private flying boat to be handed over…

That seems nice.

I’m trembling with expectation.

But well, I didn’t consider the maintenance cost though.

…Well, I’m leaving that story for now.

[How many of Sharon’s mothers are there?]

[Eh? I only have one mother, you know?]

[What? Is that so?]

[Yeah? It’s only one, you know…? Oh, there aren’t many people like Haruto.]

Eh? Is that so?

The shocking facts were revealed from the conversation between Sharon and Laurier.

Well, Sharon was a village girl and it doesn’t seem anyone has a harem in the village.

In terms of image, I thought it wouldn’t be strange for some village elders to be surrounded by their wives, but it seems that it isn’t.

Aside from that, there are five girls who are in contact with their parents: Sharon, Rithina, Celes, Kagura-san, and Aura.

Mina’s parents have passed away.

Tanya’s parents seem to be alive, but she doesn’t know where or what they are doing now.

Laurier seems to have never seen the face of her parents in the first place.

The same is true for Elcure.

…Doesn’t it look like the demon race has a weak familial relationship?

Well, to be honest, it’s also a hassle to say hello to their parents, so I’m glad that almost half of them are absent…Why do I feel lonely?

Maybe because I don’t have parents that I’m a little ignorant of that part.

However, there is no reason not to say our greeting, isn’t there?.

Well, this is also a good opportunity for their parents to know their new son-in-law better. That’s why I need to overcome it.

=====

And then, the next two weeks went by too fast.

If it were a Millis Kingdom-styled ceremony, then I could just leave the rough details to Rithina, Mina or Aura, and there wouldn’t be any issues as long as I only did what I was told, but since I wanted to hold the ceremony in the style I envisioned, it was necessary for me to act proactively.

Additionally, regarding the ceremony I envisioned, as a result of wondering whether I should go with a western type with a chapel and a red carpet where we walk atop it, or a Japanese styled one where we perform it while wearing pure white clothes, I took the decision “Of course we have to go with both!”, and that was cause of all this.

Of course, I had never attended a wedding ceremony so I was desperately struggling to evoke such scenes that I saw in manga, anime, and dramas from my memory.

Under such circumstances, what was useful for the first time after a long time, was the smartphone that I brought from the earth and the online dictionary that I saved offline.

Thanks to Celes’s research, I prepared the wedding style while using the smartphone that can work without needing to charge for hours.

And today, we finally reached the wedding day.

The greetings to the parents of each bride were also completed by the day before.

I was concerned that some of them would be worried that their daughter would get married to someone as young as me and become my harem members, but surprisingly, I were more easily congratulated than I had expected.

After all, the fact that I am the local lord and the Third Princess of the country is included as one of the members of my harem being big reasons for it.

If their daughter was married to a man who neither has background nor social status, and they lived a life of lasciviousness every day in a tattered house, any parents would be enraged.

=====

After meeting Sharon’s parents, I feel that they are like villagers. I have no ill intentions, but they are really normal villagers.

To tell the truth, it seems that my father-in-law was a well-known adventurer in the past, but there is no sign of it because of the many years of doing farming work and he himself laughed, [Now it’s more calming to hold the hoe], when he talked to me.

It’s like an idol group pioneering an island.

[I was just worried because it has been long time since I left the village, even though I have become an adventurer because I was full with energy back then… Didn’t think it’ll be like this now ]

[Haruto is really strong! I’ve been taught a lot by Haruto and I’m training a lot! I won’t lose to dad anymore!] (Note: She called her dad “otou-san”)

Sharon, who seems to be excited when she meets her parents after a long time, has a louder voice which is 30% more than usual. It is the true essence of an energetic girl.

My father-in-law, who heard the victorious declaration from his daughter, only let out a subtle smile.

Ehehe, I’m sorry, my father-in-law.

I taught her not only combat techniques but also various other things.

…If I said that, he would kill me.

I’m sure of it.

=====

Celes’s parents is as I expected: elves. I was wondering if there could everr be a more handsome man and beautiful woman married couple so far.

In particular, my mother-in-law was terrifying and she literally looked like what I imagined.

Above all, both look young.

Their actual ages may not fit their appearance, but they really look like they are only in the mid-20s.

So, this is an elf, huh.

It’s so absurd.

Even so, it seems the elves in this world have no special longevity compared to other races.

They only live a little longer than the others.

In other words, these two are special.

And the most noteworthy part is my mother-in-law’s breasts.

So big.

To the extent that it couldn’t be compared with Celes.

It is even bigger than Rithina.

What kind of scenery would I see if I was buried there?

Gulp.

No-no, that’s out of mind, I guess?

But, I see, it seems Celes has bright hope in the future.

However, the current Celes’ breast size is hard to throw away.

Hmmm, this is troubling.

[Celes, you did it. You’ve gotten yourself a successful life!]

[S-successful life… Father… Yeah.] (Note: She called her father “Tou-san”)

Although he looked handsome, it was surprising that her father just said something very common.

Speaking of which, Celes was someone who climbed her rank and entered a school where aristocrats gathered.

She may have been a star of hope for her parents.

And yet, I’m using the brains of the expected genius elf to study erotic ecology.

=====

As for Kagura-san’s parents, they thanked me with full tears and said, [I never dreamed that Kagura would get married].

In addition, they said that they are even more thankful that she left home because she was tired of making weapons, but thanks to me, she started making weapons again.

By the way, Kagura-san’s father is a dwarf, who is not only short but also has a hairy beard.

It seems her unusually long hair is because of the dwarf bloodline.

Then, when her mustache father saw my sword, he was so moved by the result and started to cry.

It was really messed-up when I was hugged that day.

[Haruto-sama. Please, please take care of my daughter.]

[Um… Y-yes. Well, leave it to me.]

Her mustached father said so and started crying again.

Seriously, please do something about it.

[Mou! Stop crying, dad. Somehow it made me want to cry too.] (Note: She called her father “Tou-san”)

Eeh?!

Why did Kagura-san also start to cry?

Are dwarves easily moved to tears? Or is this family easily moved to tears?

Although we are getting married, there are still many things that I don’t know.

=====

Aura’s parents are honorable and prestigious knights of the Kingdom.

As knights who served the Millis Royal family for generations, they were very pleased that she was selected as a member of the Hero’s party to subjugate the Demon King.

In the midst of such an important mission, I was wondering if they would be surprised and thought our marriage would be ridiculous, but on the contrary, they said, [You’re finally got a piece of happiness in an endless mission. That’s why, be sure to defeat the Demon King and return home safely].

To me, they said, [Thank you very much for giving her great support to fulfill her mission. Please take care of our daughter after she defeats the Demon King], that was what I was being told.

I felt bad for Aura because I proposed marriage to her in a rather disorganized manner.

However, please be assured that I will do my best to make Aura happy even if her parents didn’t ask for it.

By the way, a boy who seems to be Aura’s youngest brother kicked my leg as hard as he could.

Although Aura and her parents went to scold him, I can understand his feelings.

If I had such a beautiful older sister, I would do the same.

However, your older sister is already my wife.

I know your older sister’s face that you don’t know.

Fuhaha!

Move on from your older sister and find yourself a girlfriend.

Wuhaha!

Just now, the graceful vows of the moment were hazy because of my pettiness.

=====

Rithina’s parents, the King and Queen, haven’t come yet.

Or rather, her relatives haven’t arrived this time either.

Or rather, regarding that, I will go to the royal capital at a later date so they will not participate this time.

The King knows the relationship between me and Rithina, but I don’t want to see him when I remember the contents of his letter…

That overprotective King would laugh and stab me. No, that should be impossible though.

And so the recollection of my greetings to each parent is over.

It’s impossible to greet Mina’s parents, but let’s say hello in front of their grave when we go to the Royal Capital.

I think it would be nice to be able to greet Tanya’s parents whose location is unknown as well as Laurier’s parents whose fate is unknown. But, yes. Someday, surely.
