That Person. Later on…Volume 1

I wonder when that was…perhaps two years had already passed. My name was “Wasu.” I was just 15-year-old at the time: an ordinary person with an ordinary appearance that could be found anywhere. I have black haired, and have a normal income in the world. I lived in the Kingdom of Iscoa, south of the huge continent. There were also the ordinary townspeople parents, and there was a cute genius, and always two acclaimed sisters at the bottom.

I was a mediocre older brother who had no merit. However, such a mediocre me also had a childhood friend who was also a townsperson and of the same age. That childhood friend’s name was “Aria.” She had blue eyes that made you feel at peace along with glowing blonde hair like fine silk thread. A small body due to her young age but with that kind of face, she was supposed to become a beauty with a well-balanced body in the future.

As for her personality…

Well, she was always smiling and calm. But only when I’m with you, sometimes the black part…

No, let’s not say that bad…

When Aria and I were twelve years old, I pledged my future to her; a pledge between two people. People who married at the age of fifteen will be recognized as an adult.

Moreover, my sister’s mood was considerably grave for a while after the fact. I remembered having a difficult time turning it around. Oops, right now it was about Aria. She was still Aria, but when she was twelve years old; she was recognized as a “Saint” by the church. She would be departing with a man who was, likewise, chosen as a brave person. To kill the demon who would appear later that year. Aria herself didn't want to go.

However, I think that only I knew that her departure was the result of persuasion from the adults around us, like Aria’s parents; it was inevitable. Aria just smiled as usual. But at that time, I wondered if I could let go without saying anything. Should I also do something?

So, as Aria was following the people from the church, I shouted at her:

“I will go with you!”

Aria looked back at me, breaking into a smile. But adults around me turned to me with embarrassed looks. One juvey appeared by sliding out between the adults. "Do you think anyone as mediocre as you would be taken along to the suppression of the Maou?”

The boy looked at me with a grinding gaze. His hair was dark blue, and unlike my mediocre appearance, it was a very well-organized face.

I might be mediocre, but it doesn't matter! I want to go!

“Then fight me “

As a result, I lost to a blue headed boy. Aria tried to treat my injuries. But since the boy and adults deemed me unworthy of time, they simply gave me several silver coins as a treatment fee and took Aria away from this place quickly. I also left, crying endlessly from frustration and helplessness.

Since then, I prayed for the safety of Aria every day and was dying for some self-discipline. It was something I knew when I started training. That boy was a “Brave Man”. I wanted to become a brave and not lose anymore. During this process, I also went to the adventurer's guild and registered. I aimed to extend my strength.

However, if something was weak, it couldn’t suddenly become strong. I had no talent. No matter how I tried hard I was only slightly above average. Nevertheless, it took about two years for me to become stronger and more confident in my strength.

Not long before I turned fifteen, the news was passed around the world.

“The brave party defeated the demon king!”

This news filled the world with delight. Still, I was full of anxiety until I confirmed the safety of Aria with my own eyes. A while after the news had passed through, the brave party returned to the kingdom. It seemed that they came back reporting their safe return and the suppression of the demon kingdom.

When a brave party passed through the kingdom, a flashy parade event was held. When I looked at the situation from a distance, I confirmed the appearance of Aria in the center of the brave party. I gently stroked my chest. The brave party entered the castle. After a while appeared on the balcony of the castle alongside the king, looking down at the state of the kingdom.

“Satan is defeated.”

"Thank you. Then…brave…what would you like as a reward?”

“There is only one thing I want.”

As the brave said so, he looked at Aria within the brave party behind him.

“I want to take the saint Aria as my wife!”

Immediately, the hero tried stealing Aria’s lips. I closed my eyes, shut my ears, turned away from the castle and ran away while trying to comfort myself with words such as: 'Common things in stories…'

After that, I do not remember how I got home. My mother just got pure white, and she seems to have been calling out to me who came back with hula while looking for something anxious, but, “Oh…I think he was returning with such words like “Well…” I returned to my room. After a while I noticed water droplets falling on my feet. Finally, I realized it was tears that were running down my face. I wonder if Aria makes you happy on the balcony of the castle now… If you think so, in this place furiously…No, I did not want to stay in the kingdom; there were too many memories with Aria here. I left a message on the spot and jumped out of the house with a little money.

This was what I wrote:

I wish for the happiness of Aria and the brave. Please do not search for me.

On that day, I celebrated my 15th birthday, crying; I disappeared from the kingdom.
