2021-05-27 05:59:02The voyage back to the Castle was peaceful, except for the heated discussion inside Alex’s carriage, with Wenammy and Pearl Pearson accusing Anika of being a cheater and not respecting their previous agreement, and Anika accusing them both of being too shy or too stupid to miss such a great opportunity to get near Alex, when he was in that tight bodysuit and completely at ease, just having fun and forgetting to be on his guard.
Alex had to intervene when Pearl and Wenammy went for Anika’s throat, and he pulled their ears while seated on Anika’s lap to prevent her from attacking the other two women in return.

As soon as Alex exited the carriage, and while he helped Anika and Wenammy get out, he noticed a few disguised smiles on the Nobles and their wives and a mocking smile from Viscount Tom and the King. The Princess looked puzzled, probably wondering what happened during the voyage. As soon as Alex joined the group of Nobles, the King said, “If anyone had any doubts about why these beautiful women are with you, after hearing Miss Pearl and looking at your troubled face, I suppose no one doubts anymore. I guess congratulations are in order, or is it still too soon, considering how carefully you act in matters of the heart?”

After dinner, Alex went to the back garden for a walk to help digestion, together with Anika, Pearl, Wenammy, Suijin, and Okami, leaving the Nobles and the King free to drink their wine in the dining room or walk along the several corridors of the Castle. Alex stopped at the gazebo, and a maid that was following them rushed to ask him if he wanted some tea for him and his friends. While the maid went inside the Castle again, Alex sat on the lower wall of the gazebo, feeling the night breeze and looking at the double moon in the sky. Pearl noticed that while the others were happily chatting, he was in silence, thinking with a serious face.

Alex had his mouth wide open and asked, almost shouting, “You mean he found a way to open Magical Voids to the Monster World, instead of the Voids appearing randomly?” “Yes, and I don’t know how he did that. Perhaps he got lucky or was smarter than he seemed. When it was my time to approach that so-called Hero to get my Magical Orb and my mission, I removed the hood from my head. He turned pale when he recognised me, and I took his beating heart from his chest with my bare hands and stuffed it in his mouth. I faced
Alex Brim, Hero for Hire Side Story: Alex first voyage to Azurath
Ten-year-old Sakamo Ryu was in his father’s room in the Shrine in Nakanojo. He frowned at his reflection, and his father, Sakamo Yahei, asked with a smile, “What’s the matter, Ryu? You don’t like your new clothes? Those are the most inconspicuous ones that I could find the last time I was in Azurath. You will blend in just fine, don’t worry. Perhaps it would be a good idea if you loosened your braid. It will help you get into character. There are plenty of men with long hair in Azurath, but braids aren’t very common. Those are left to the women, and a boy walking around with a long braid will definitely make you stand out a little too much.”

While Alex and his guests were having dinner in his Castle, in the meeting room of Baron Rowan Harvey, he was seated at his long table looking at a map of his lands and his neighbours. He looked up and faced Commander Sebastian Cox, who was seated in front of him, with fifteen of his men standing behind him in absolute silence. “You are telling me that not even you failed at killing Earl Alex before he went to the Chamber of Lords, but you were able to make him suspect of you, and now none of you can get near his l

In the morning, Alex woke up feeling something heavy on his stomach. He looked down and saw that Okami was resting her head on there while caressing the inner side of his thighs. She felt him moving and looked up with a big smile. “Hello. Did you sleep well, my love?” “Yes, I did. I don’t even remember falling asleep! Did I... faint or something?”

Anika spoke as she was walking with Alex. “It’s nice to see them getting along, right? It means peaceful days for you because you won’t have to get into the middle of a fight.” “Yeah… What about you? Last time, you were about to get into a fight with Pearl and Wenammy. Probably I should have let them teach you a lesson because you were the one at fault.” “I know… I don’t regret anything I did in the pool, though. I would do it again, even if I had to face the wrath of those two. It was such a great opportu

Alex bit his lower lip. “I am well aware. You can call it stupidity or compassion, I really don’t care. I just know it’s the proper thing to do. I am more or less responsible for what happened because if the Chamber of Lords approved your plan, those commoners might still be alive. It seems that despite all my efforts, and no matter what I do, people keep on dying because of me.” Viscount Tom saw the gloom in Alex’s eyes, and he quickly interrupted, “Nonsense, Earl Alex! Things always happen for a reason, and the deaths in the Baron’s manor had nothing to do with you! It was other people’s wrongdoings. You don’t need to get depressed because of that! Even if it was true, you helped far m

Alex Brim was already thirty-five, and for the last two years, he had been living permanently in Azurath because his forever-young look was making people suspicious of him on Earth. So, without informing anyone, he purchased two one-way tickets to Nepal for himself and Hangaku Mae, leaving on his kitchen counter a single note stating that they were going to live in a secluded monastery deep in the mountains for their retirement, leaving behind his stressful work at the Earthquake Institute and as a part-time teacher at Tokyo Metropolitan Nishi High School.

Side Story: Meeting the Princess 1.1
After nearly an hour of walking, they arrived at the vicinities of the main gate of the Imperial Palace. Sakamo thought it was weird if she lived there, but probably her parents worked there. To his surprise, a group of four men ran to them as soon as they recognised the Princess, and one of them shouted to Sakamo, “Let her go! Why are you holding her hand like that? Why did you kidnap her?” Sakamo felt Hiko trembling as she hid behind him, and he whispered, “What do these guys want? Are they friends of those guys this morning?”
