Aiming To Be An Orthodox Hero
A week has passed since I was summoned to another world.
We depart the Royal Castle first thing in the morning. That being said, it’s not a showy Hero’s departure.
I put on a robe, wear a mundane armour, and sneakily leave the castle on a carriage.
From the gap of the carriage’s curtains……I saw with these eyes directly for the first time, the castle town of another world.
It’s a remarkably medieval-style town.
It’s just that, because I’d actually managed to see this view beforehand with the skill, I’m only moderately touched by it.
Nevertheless, I feel, ‘aah, I did come to another world huh’, in my bones again.
“Princess-sama, Chivalric Order Captain”
The Chivalric Order Captain and Princess are sitting together inside the carriage. It sure is the same members as always huh.
“About this morning……”
“This morning, is it?”
The Princess, furrow her browns at my words. Her body is going, ‘what is he going to say’.
“A message was displayed in my status”
“A message?”
“Yes. That message is……”
I pause momentarily. Is this the right decision, or is it not.
However, since my objective is Princess Alicia’s heart, I think an approach from this angle is definitely necessary.
Hence, I resolved myself.
“I unlocked the【Key To The Princess’ Heart】. I then acquired Skill No. 4【Leveling】. That was what happened”
“Eh!?”
Princess Alicia is surprised by my words.
It was a subconscious influence as I’d thought huh; it seems she wasn’t aware of it.
Winning her over with the skill I should call a ‘sneak attack?’ didn’t go well.
Although there’s still room for verification, there’s no guarantee that I’ll keep on having the same chance.
That’s why I decide to go with a different method.
My next move is……a ‘frontal attack’.
I’ll charge fearlessly towards the objective of defeating the Demon Lord.
I’m gonna move on top of the Princess’ palm, so that I can get on the Princess’ good side.
In other words, completing my job as the Hero, and approaching the Princess from the front again.
Honestly, even I myself think that I have a side of me that has an overly strong victim mentality because of the【Character Introduction】of Princess Alicia and the people around when I was first summoned.
I guess you can say that it’s precisely because I know the cliché, that I was foreseeing a betrayal punchline after the Demon Lord subjugation.
As a result of being all too cautious of the all too common worst pattern of『I did my best as the Hero and defeated the Demon Lord, and yet this time around, I’m treated as the Demon Lord, chased away, and killed』, I became overly cautious and took the first move so that it doesn’t end up like that.
I get it, you know? A betrayed Hero, a Hero who’s treated as the Demon Lord. It’s easy to put yourself in those shoes and get into character.
It’s still okay if they’re just stories, but I absolutely don’t want to be that very person in reality.
However, I realised it’s still quite early to be cautious about that.
Since I came to another world, under normal circumstances, I, too, have a part of me that wants to have fun.
I, as one would expect, had the desire to act as an orthodox Otherworld Summoning Hero as well.
Because I could do what I could do with the omnipotent skill, it’s only natural that I ended up making sneak attack my basic strategy.
But, from here on out…… I’ll attack with the orthodox method! Of course, while also providing secret support with the skill.
Let’s play the part from now on after all this time.
The orthodox Hero that the Kingdom and Princess wish for on the surface!
I’m a regular(?) transferee who’s excited about another world from today onwards!
And while also making use of the skill, I’ll open up the Princess’ heart.
I’ll capture the Princess’ heart……after the erotic game, it’s the start of the gal game!
『The Princess won’t lay her hands on me either until I defeat the Demon Lord』
I’ll move with this as my premise. At the moment, I’ll ignore the Princess’ plans.
I’ll first prioritise removing the lock on the skills over anything else. I’ll assume that if I just keep Skill No. 3 hidden, it’ll be fine even if they have an accurate grasp of all my other skills.
Hence, I decided I’ll try rocking the boat by personally revealing my cards this time around.
It’s because I think it’s the perfect timing to disclose the fact that【Leveling】has been unlocked.
If it’s just this skill, it’s probably not to the extent that they’ll become wary of me.
The other side might judge that it’s better if I quickly unlocked the remaining skills after all.
“First, allow me to give you my gratitude. Princess-sama”
“……yes? Gratitude, is it?”
“Eeh. This【Key To The Princess’ Heart】. It has been explained to me that『Temporarily Unlocks Through The Summoner, Acknowledging The Hero』. Through the fact that the Princess-sama came to acknowledge myself, I managed to acquire a new power”
“……”
The actual【Key To The Princess’ Heart】 is,
1. The Skills’ Lock That Was Inserted Into The Hero Summoning’s Ritual
2. Temporarily Unlocks Through The Princess, Acknowledging The Hero In Her Heart
3. Locks The Skills Through The Princess’, Consciousness Of Rejecting The Hero In Her Heart
……as such are the explanatory notes though.
“The fact that I managed to learn a new skill this morning, means that the Princess-sama acknowledged myself, who sets off on a journey, as the Hero, right?”
“Eh, no, that is”
“Am I mistaken? I managed to acquire the skill this morning, right around when I woke up though. Does anything from around the time you went to bed until you woke up this morning come to mind,『Princess Alicia』”
“……nn!”
The Princess-sama, slightly blushed and averted her eyes.
She places her hand on her mouth and even behaves like she’s enduring something. It’s a little bit adorable.
Now, on Princess Alicia, two pieces of tools should be equipped.
◇Hairpin Of Sensitivity
1. Transparent. Has the effect of not being perceived by those other than the Hero.
2. Disappears when it is noticed by somebody other than the Hero, or when it falls off the Princess.
3. Has the effect of when the target is called『Princess Alicia』by the Hero, she recalls the dream she saw through【Blindfold Of Humiliation】clearly on the occasion she has it equipped.
4. Has the effect of making the target very lightly aroused when she closes in on a 1m radius of the Hero.
5. Rank A
◇Transparent Clitoris Piercing
1. Transparent. Has the effect of not being perceived by those other than the Hero.
2. Disappears when it is noticed by somebody other than the Hero, or when it falls off the Princess.
3. Has the effect of faintly vibrating when there is no danger to the target’s life, and when the target is in a relaxed state.
4. Has the effect of making the target recall the dream she saw through【Blindfold Of Humiliation】in the case that it vibrates.
5. Rank C
Both of them, possess the effect of Transparency and not being perceived.
I managed to confirm it when it comes to the hairpin. The fact that it didn’t disappear means the effect is being applied.
Therefore, whenever the Princess is called『Princess Alicia』 by me, she ends up recalling the content of the dream where she repeatedly climaxed over and over again that much yesterday night.
Furthermore, the inside of the carriage is narrow, so although she’s sitting opposite me, the distance is also about 1m…… it’s a state where the effect is being manifested twice-fold.
“Ye-, ah……anything that comes to mind……yes. There, is”
“Ooh, then, as I thought! Thank you. Princess-sama!”
I smiled cheerfully and thanked her as best I could.
At the same time as the phrase, ‘anything that comes to mind’, she was made to remember the lewd dream.
She probably thought that that was the cause of it. Rather, though the timing is different, that’s the truth.
It’s unclear what the actual seal on the skills is, but……it probably doesn’t feel off by much.
And so, the fact the hairpin isn’t removed, and its effect is properly functioning.
It probably means that inside the underwear of Princess Alicia, who’s making an indifferent face, the piercing is firmly equipped on her clitoris.
Furthermore, the person herself isn’t aware of that. ……it sure is erotic if I think about it like that. I unwittingly become conscious of it and want to stare at her crotch.
“……Hero-sama, may I ask you about that skill in detail?”
“Of course, Chivalric Order Captain.【Leveling】is……”
I’ll talk about it here without hiding anything. Because even I myself will become unable to fully grasp what I told them is the truth and what’s the lie if I keep lying about everything too much.
“From now on, as the Hero……I have to play an active role and contribute magnificently, right? I believe that if I train myself well with this skill, that will also become possible, and I can become the Kingdom’s……the Princess-sama’s strength”
“……yeah. Eeh, please put in even more effort, Hero-sama”
Princess Alicia, hid her inner thoughts and smiled.
Now then, in reality, I wonder what I should do to get on the Princess’ good side?
It’d be that if it’s the cliché huh. Not just the bandit group, I might have to go around repelling various evildoers. I wonder if the Kingdom side will prepare such work?
……they won’t bring plain-and-simple harassment towards their political opponents as work to me, right?
If it’s those kinds of work, it might be better to confirm every single one of them with【Character Introduction】.
I thought, and for the sake of having a quick look at the condition of the skill, I tried activating Skill No. 1【Character Introduction】on Princess Alicia.
Immediately after.
◆Alicia=Felt=Cousler
Sex: Female
Age: 17
Profile:
『Cousler Royal Family’s Second Princess. On the side that discriminates against Demihumans・Beastfolks and so forth. An individual who believes that only the Human Race is considered people. Furthermore, because she doesn’t acknowledge Otherworlders as fellow humans, she regards Otherworlders as filthy beings the likes of Demihumans and Beastfolks. Considers the summoned Hero as a disposable weapon. Furthermore, having sadistic kink, she has a liking for the sight of Demihumans・Beastfolks・Otherworlders in pain. Is trying to think of the dropping of the Otherworlder into the abyss of tragedy, as the consolation for the Otherworld Summoning ritual that’s against her wish』
Additional Profile:
『Is starting to become self-aware that being pushed down and helplessly violated by the Hero, excites herself sexually, but is also having difficulty accepting it, and is having a dilemma. Is also considering that having a physical relationship with the Hero during the course of the journey, becoming the number one existence to the Hero, and betraying those feelings of the Hero at the very end, might be the best way to be able to trample the Hero’s feelings』
“……!?”
“Hero-sama? Is something wrong?”
“N-, no……”
Somehow, a profile has been added to the Princess’【Character Introduction】! I, tried using the skill on the Chivalric Order Captain sitting to the side as well, but…… there’s no update to his profile. The Princess is the only one with changes.
“…………”
I, stare fixedly at the Princess’ profile that was newly added.
Erm……somehow, she’s starting to consider that it’s fine to have a physical relationship with me.
I wonder if this, is that. I wonder if it’s the influence of the deeds I did to the Princess this entire week.
Princess Alicia is somehow, starting to wake up to a masochistic-ish fetish, but it seems she still has a dilemma.
However, perhaps she also has the self-awareness towards such a fetish, she’s thinking that having a physical relationship is also viable…….
But, her end goal hasn’t changed!
Her mindset is that she’s trying to fill in the role of『the lover whom I believed that much』for the sake of plunging me into the abyss of tragedy at best! Let’s satisfy my own lust while I’m at it, that kind of mindset!
……is this, that?
Her body started being developed, but her heart doesn’t acknowledge me at all.
It’s that kind of ‘unbalanced?’ state huh.
It’s true that the training through this skill was unable to win over the crucial Princess’ heart.
I managed to remove one of the locks on the skills, but that’s all.
Since it says it’s the【Key To The Princess’ Heart】, does it mean it’s necessary to get even closer to the Princess’ heart?
◇◆◇
The carriage we rode, took a detour around a large building in the castle town and stopped at the back of that building.
“This place is? I believe we are still inside the castle town”
“This place is the Adventurer’s Guild, He-……erm”
“Yes. ……is it my name, perhaps?”
“Aah. What was it again”
“……Shinohara Shinta”
For this entire week, I’ve only been called the Hero after all.
Well, I also often call them Princess and Chivalric Order Captain though.
“Shinohara, this place is the Adventurer’s Guild”
“Yes……”
She doesn’t say, why is it that we’re entering from the back. There’s already the consensus that we’re sneaking in.
There is the Princess around as well after all. The fact that the Hero and the Princess are around, it feels like that alone will cause a ruckus after all.
Nevertheless, a Guild huh. Uh-huh, they really do have it. It really hits home. It’s the cliché, you know, the cliché.
That being said, I think their business model will vary depending on the country though……I wonder how it is.
“Why, did we come to the Adventurer’s Guild?”
“To officially run the Guild through the matter this time around. Also, to issue the Hero-sama’s identification paper”
“Identification paper? ……is it something like a Guild Card?”
“It is literally so, a Guild Card”
An Adventurer’s Guild’s Guild Card! It sure is the cliché huh!
Rather, the identification paper is being issued after a whole week has passed?
Has the me until now been treated as an illegal immigrant? I mean, of course they’re gonna make me refrain from going outside huh.
The three of us carry on to go to the Adventurer Guild’s back entrance and ask for someone inside to receive us.
Perhaps they’d run it through them beforehand, we were easily allowed through.
We enter the building like that, and since it’s easy to naturally shorten our distance……I move closer within a meter of the Princess-sama and make her go into heat with the hairpin’s effect.
“『Princess Alicia』, has the Princess-sama come to the Guild before?”
“Nn! ……ah, n-, no. I hav-……e not”
Princess-sama is, blushing and very slightly wriggling with her thighs bending inwards.
When her body goes into an aroused state, naturally, her sensitive parts will start to react, so the piercing worn on the current Princess’ lower body, is probably pretty stimulating.
Furthermore, the bonus flashback of the lewd dream.
The inside of the Princess’ head is currently, plastered with obscenity.
She, might start consoling herself again when she’s left alone. I sure would like to make sure that I don’t miss that scene.
Rather, Princess Alicia’s body sure has been fully developed.
As I thought, the problem with the skills’ lock lies with her heart huh.
◇◆◇
Regarding the Adventurer’s Guild, it seems that, as I thought, it’s an organisation that mainly manages the type of work such as subjugating monsters.
Troubled ordinary people commission the monster subjugation with the Guild and pay a commission fee.
And then, the Guild assesses the difficulty of that commission’s details and gives it a rank.
The Adventurer’s side, too, receives a rank evaluation, and it’s possible for them to accept a commission that corresponds with their rank.
When it comes to these, since monster subjugation is accompanied by the risk of death, it appears that the capability evaluation is a relatively serious assessment.
So that they don’t leave the inexperienced Adventurers with unnecessarily dangerous jobs.
And, as the proof of the monster subjugation, they also have the Adventurers deliver raw materials such as a part of the monster, and the Guild, it seems they process those raw materials and give you money for it as well.
Rather than the Hero, I have more of an interest in an Adventurer.
In any case though, I understood that the Guild Card, which you have the Guild issue to you upon hearing and confirming the various explanations regarding the Guild, seemingly functions as one of the identity guarantees in this world.
If I can have the Guild Card issued to me as well, it’ll mean that I’m officially an inhabitant of this world.
I more or less have a bit of dissatisfaction remaining, but let’s get excited about the act of joining the Guild of another world; that’s what I decided.
Hell yeah, with this, I’m also an Adventurer, woo-hoo.
After finishing the necessary registration procedures and whatnot, we came to wait for someone in a room that was seemingly deep within the Guild.
◇◆◇
“Princess-sama and……you’re the Hero-sama huh. Hmm……”
A brawny-looking man appeared in the room we were waiting in.
That man sat confidently on the sofa on the other side with a small table between us.
And then, he observed the Princess and me without holding back.
By the way, the Chivalric Order Captain remained standing so that he could move easily. …… he’s being wary of this man? Why?
First of all, I activate Skill No. 1 【Character Introduction】.
◆Gromond=Lekzainus
Sex: Male
Age: 51
Profile:
『A man who’s called the Sword Saint. Simultaneously serves as the Adventurer’s Guild’s Guild Master. Ambitious; tends to pursue power and authority; easily jealous; heavy attention-seeker. Not just the Guild, he holds the squad that is dispatched to the surrounding regions from the castle town, the White Wolf Chivalric Order, and has turned it into his own possession. When it comes to the Hero, he is thinking about making use of him if he is something useable, and he is planning to get the Princess wrapped around his fingers while she is still single and become a part of the Royal Family if he gets lucky. Divorced Twice, Single』
……oi, someone of a somewhat different vector showed up! How am I supposed to react!
“So, is your business exactly as I’d heard?”
“Eeh. Gromond-sama. First, we will have the Hero-sama experience monster exterminations appropriate to his abilities. And then……regarding the aforementioned bandit group, the Royal Chivalric Order will handle it”
“……I don’t mind you doing as you like regarding the monster extermination. Bandit group hunting is……our job, ain’t it? You guys, can just do you guys’ jobs”
“No, please leave it to us”
Huh, does the Princess-sama’s authority, not work on this geezer?
It appears that he himself is also in quite a distinguished position, and he possesses a personal army that he can move freely in various ways.
I guess she can’t strong-arm him? Still, it says he’s targeting the Princess; as expected, the age difference and whatnot are……. But it’s a medieval-style world after all, so I guess it’ll do for a political marriage? The Princess-sama sure has it tough in various ways as well huh.
“Still, I can’t keep quiet either if ya screw with the boundaries. Besides, Princess, what are you going to do? What if the Royal Chivalric Order follows the Hero……and, ‘during that time’, some problem happened where the Chivalric Order ain’t around? Won’t it become an issue with the Princess’ responsibility?”
“The Royal Chivalric Order is not that weak”
“Who knows. They’re a bunch who prioritises training with fairly little actual combat experience with monster hunting as well, right? I wonder if they’ll be reliable when push comes to shove”
There are a ton of sparks flying in the air!? The Chivalric Order Captain’s expression feels dangerous as well! The Princess as well, she’s lost the cuteness of the aroused state she had until just now and is ready to fight!
Eh, how frightenin’. Are they fellow heads of rival organisations?
They’re giving off a vibe like a fight might break out at any moment, you know.
The current me, don’t have the strength to resist if people of the Chivalric Order Captain-class go on a rampage though? Can you do it somewhere where I’m not around!
……the inhabitants of this world, they sure do seem to boost their physical capability with the Fighting Spirit, aura, or whatever they call it huh.
And then the current me, can’t use that technique. I wonder if any one of the sealed skills, fills in for that?
Right now, the only means I have to stand up against them is by sending back and landing the aura attack that seemingly manifests from【Absolute Counter】.
If, it were to come down to a PVP, it’d turn into a fighting style where I, in any case, block the opponent’s attack, manifest the counter, and send it back to the opponent.
I suppose that means…… I’m not unstoppable huh.
“Whyy, I’m just worried, ya know, Princess-sama”
“Worried about what?”
“Worried that the Royal Chivalric Order become short-handed from babysitting the Hero-sama. And if unluーckily enough, some problem ends up happening to the Chivalric Order over there……the Royal Chivalric Order’s credibility will also end up plummeting. If that happens, ‘the Royal Castle and castle town’s defence, ought to be left to the White Wolf Chivalric Order’……if suーch a topic comes up, we’ll have too many jobs in our hands and end up being troubled as well, ya know? If that happens……will the Royal Chivalric Order, help out with the ‘outside’ jobs from here on out like with the bandit group hunting?”
“……are you saying,『you』will stir up a problem?”
Eeeh……. What’s with these people. They have a bad relationship, you know!?
Can you do it somewhere else, seriously!
Does Mister Gromond, perhaps wants to control the Royal Chivalric Order’s ‘current position?’ in his hands?
“Hahaha! I ain’t gonna do something like that. I’m just sayin’ we should probably carry out our original roles, right? In the first place, the Hero-sama needs the Chivalric Order’s babysitting? Go and destroy the weak-ass bandit group by yourself at least. Ain’t that exactly how a Hero should be. Innit?”
I’m somehow being provoked! Regarding the skill lock……I guess there’s no way they publicise it huh.
……huh, this, if the Hero didn’t go by himself,『Why doesn’t the Hero make quick work of them even though he can do it by himself? He’s a superman, right?』, won’t such an evaluation be passed on me? And, that won’t be the development the Princess wishes for.
Besides, since it’s a fight to the death with humans, there may be casualties to the Chivalric Order’s people as well.
They’re merely a bandit group, but nevertheless, they’re a bandit group.
If there’s even a single casualty, it’ll end up sowing distrust in the Hero.
No, Princess Alicia’s stance is, ‘bring on the distrust in the Hero!’ at the very end though.
“……ooh. Why are you keeping quiet? Hero-sama”
“Yes”
He’s glowering at me horribly. Even if you tell me that.
……this fellow, doesn’t he have somewhat a horrible vibe?
As far as it goes, let’s designate him as the second target of the Transportation Technique. I want to briefly observe him afterwards.
Though, I don’t really want to monitor a geezer.
“How unreliable. Aren’t you the Hero. Just swoop in and cut ’em evildoers down”
The ‘Hero’ is such an existence for this world huh.
And yet, the Hero is coming here sneakily, using strange cheap tricks, andtrying to rely on the Chivalric Order……that’s how I’ll be evaluated.
You won’t use it to set things up for later where the ‘The Hero is actually weak, a fake!’, right, Princess Alicia?
Even if she has no such intentions now, as long as this is the Hero’s original evaluation, such『the Hero is actually a fake theory』will end up circulating and setting the foundation for it.
……which means, this situation.
In my position, the very direction of doing something about the bandit group with my own strength, is how I can crush my future disadvantages?
I have to acquire the evaluation of,『That person, as I thought, he’s the Hero』『He didn’t even rely on the Chivalric Order or whatnot』, and stand up against the rumours of a fake Hero that’ll possibly circulate in the town afterwards.
I don’t know whether that’s how Princess Alicia will come at me though.
Ah, but Princess Alicia is thinking that hunting the bandit group is impossible with the strength of the current me, right? If it turns into me hunting the bandit group by myself over there……the Princess, who can consciously remove the skill lock, might release the skill lock?
Be it bandit group hunting or whatnot, even without fighting directly……I can find the hideout and slowly and steadily erase them from this world with the technique from afar, can’t I? Rather, if the Princess and Captain are nearby, I can’t use that method which I can defeat the bandit group most safely.
I don’t want them to find out about the【Transportation Technique】after all.
If they seem to be bad people that I can use the Transportation Technique on without any reserve……my experiments will make all kinds of progress. Alright.
“Princess-sama. It is indeed as Gromond-sama has said. Albeit not the best, I am the Hero as far as it goes……as I thought, should I not do it by myself somehow here without borrowing the help of the Chivalric Order?”
I, decided to propose as such.
