Chapter 218 I Want to Continue being a Person who is Upholding Chronois-sans Expectations (2/2)

Chronois-san talked about the First Hero…… Neun-san.

Neun-san is a being who brought about a very big change in this world, and is a hero that is still talked about today.

The being who broke down the walls between the three worlds. talked about by the whole world…… To be honest, I think it’s a bit of a stretch to even compare me to her. However, the way Chronois-san speaks, it’s as if she feels I’m on par with Neun-san…… Or even more than that……

[……Still, it took her 10 years to achieve that. I’m not saying that you’re superior just because you brought the change faster than her, but still, Miyama, you’re bringing a greater change to this world far faster than the First Hero.]

[……………..]

[Everyone who is involved with you changes…… Shallow Vernal-sama, God of Fate, and even God of Life…… That’s why I find you so frightening…… When I talk to you…… It’s as if I, who has been unwavering for countless years, is being changed in ways I couldn’t resist…… That’s why I can’t help but be frightened.]

Change is frightening…… It was a feeling that I, being human, could understand to some extent.

Change isn’t always a good thing, and if the change is about you yourself…… In a way, it’s also as if you’re losing your past self, and in a way, it’s as if you encountered the unknown.

That’s why I could understand what Chronois-san is saying…… and why I didn’t refute.

However, what Chronois-san is saying didn’t end there…… and with a voice that sounds as if she’s saying that with a wry smile, she continued.

[……But at the same time…… I… I find you likeable.]

[……Eh?]

[None of the changes you bring about are bad…… Whether it’s the changes to Shallow Vernal-sama, God of Fate or God of Life…… I feel like the God Realm is being changed for the better. So, while I’m afraid of the changes that are coming, I’m also looking forward to the incoming changes.]

[……Chronois-san.]

[Hey, Miyama. You know, I…… I’m feeling afraid about how you’re going to change this world…… but I also want to see where it goes, and wish to see it myself. I have my expectations of you.]

Saying until that, Chronois-san held a sake cup in her hand, held it out to me before pouring me a drink.

In the corner of my gaze, which naturally moved, is Chronois-san, with an affectionate, gentle smile on her face, looking at me with her differently-colored eyes…… With the appearance of a strong and beautiful Goddess.

[……That’s why…… Miyama……]

[Yes.]

[From now on, continue being the same as always…… The you who is living up to my expectations. Continue doing so…… And I will always be by your side.]

[……I’m not that great of a person, and the things I can do are really trivial…… but, let’s see…… If it’s within my abilities to grant….. I would also like to be someone who doesn’t disappoint Chronois-san’s expectations.]

Honestly, I think she was overestimating me. I don’t think I’m that great, I’m just an ordinary person who has been blessed with having people around me, but I think I’m just an ordinary person you can find everywhere.

However, if someone holds expectations for this insignificant me…… I’m going to do my best to live up to their expectations.

[……You’re a warm-hearted person. I think I can understand…… why everyone likes you so much.]

[E- Errr…… Thank you?]

[Fufufu…… Miyama, can you pour some for me too?]

[Ah, yes. Here……]

Chronois-san’s smile that I haven’t had the chance to see…… looks very beautiful and somehow feels divine.

After listening to Chronois-san’s request, the both of us pour alcohol into each other’s cups, and lightly clinked our sake cups with each other.

Before I knew it, I don’t know if Chronois-san’s nervousness has faded or not, but I can see a little bit of her beautiful and slender body, and seeing the glistening drops of water dripping down her skin made my heart skip a beat.

[……This is a great opportunity. Tell me more about you, even if it’s just trivial things…… I want to know a little more about what kind of human you are.]

[I understand…… Then, in exchange, Chronois-san please tell me more about you too.]

[Is that how it works? Fufufu, yeah, I don’t mind. but don’t expect anything that interesting, alright?]

[No, I’m going to be expecting you to talk about interesting stuff.]

[……Good grief, you’re this kind of person huh……]

When I jokingly told her that, Chronois-san happily smiles.

Was it because we’ve spoken unreservedly with each other? Somehow, I feel that today’s conversation has changed my impression of Chronois-san.

Dear Mom, Dad——- I’m really glad to hear Chronois-san’s real thoughts. There were times when I think she’s just overestimating me, but I still feel glad that she’s holding expectations for someone like me, and such expectation was never a burden for me. I know that it would be a difficult thing to do, but I will do my best——- for I want to continue being a person who is upholding Chronois-san’s expectations.

Serious-senpai: [Everyone, don’t be fooled! They may look like they’re having a bittersweet serious conversation, but if you were to look closely, they’re just freaking flirting!!! It’s still the same old sweetness!!!]

Serious-senpai: [Fuaahhh!? Eh? Wai, eh? Wait, is that written in the script…… Eh? I’m still not ready yet……]
