Chapter 349 The Legendary Hero (2/2)

[Eh? Yes, come in.]

I smiled a bit awkwardly back at Kuro, who had been in the room before I knew it.

Since it’s Kuro, I think she knew that I talked to Dr. Vier. That’s probably why she’s a bit sad.

[……So you’ve met Vier.]

[Unnn. No, well, it’s more accurate to say that we already met before without really getting to know each other……]

[……Hearing Vier’s story, what did Kaito-kun think?]

[……My honest opinion is that I don’t know.]

No, it might just be that I’m being slightly partial towards Dr. Vier’s side.

I didn’t see Dr. Vier with my own eyes when she was the Demon Lord. The only Dr. Vier I know of is the current Dr. Vier.

She might be a bit klutzy, but she’s a kind person who always thinks of others…… That was the impression I had of Dr. Vier.

[Hey, Kuro? Can I ask you one thing?]

[Unnn.]

[……Do you want to meet Dr. Vier?]

[……Unnn. I want to see her. After all, she’s my “family”…… I want to see and talk to her.]

With a lonely look on Kuro’s face…… she called her “family”……

Dr. Vier said that she used to be Kuro’s family member, but Kuro told me that she was her family without hesitation. No, I think Dr. Vier still thinks of Kuro like family too.

She even tried to start a war for Kuro’s sake…… I think that deep down inside she also wants to see Kuro.

[……However, I think Vier will feel hurt again if she sees me…… that’s why I can’t meet her.]

[……I see.]

I guess that’s probably the biggest factor? Dr. Vier felt guilty for making Kuro cry. Kuro also feels guilty that Dr. Vier became the Demon Lord because she didn’t speak her true feelings.

I think it’s because they both felt guilty about each other that they have misunderstood each other even though they love each other very much.

Ahh, I see…… I finally understand why I had been so worried about this matter.

I want to…… “try do something about it”….. I want to bring Dr. Vier and Kuro together again.

However, both Kuro and Dr. Vier said that they couldn’t see each other. That’s why I was having a hard time figuring out what the right thing to do was.

Maybe it’s none of my business to get involved in a family matter as an outsider. I’m sure it would be easier if I could dismiss it as none of my business.

However, as I thought, this won’t do. It seems like I’m the kind of person who can’t give up on something once I’m involved in it.

Then, there’s no point worrying about it…… I’ll go meet Dr. Vier again tomorrow.

To be honest, I don’t even have a plan, but I think I should start by talking with her first.

I don’t have an answer to what I should do. However, I understood what I wanted to do.

So, the day after I talked to Kuro, the 20th Day of the Light month…… I came to the front of Dr. Vier’s clinic with Teleportation Magic.

However, in that place…… someone unexpected was waiting for me.

[……I knew you’d come.]

[……Neun-san?]

A few meters in front of where I teleported leisurely stands Neun-san, holding a sword similar to a Japanese katana in her hand.

[……My apologies, Kaito-san…… I can’t let you through here.]

[……………….]

[I don’t mean you any harm, but I won’t let you pass…… Please leave.]

The prickly, strong emotions conveyed by my Sympathy Magic made it painfully clear to me that Neun-san was serious about not letting me through.

Dear Mom, Dad————- After talking with Kuro, I understood what I wanted to do. That’s why I thought of talking with Dr. Vier again…… However, the one who stood in front of me was the one who once defeated the Demon Lord————- The legendary hero.

Ah, this is bad…… I can’t put the April Fool’s Day Extra Chapter in the middle of a development like this…… I guess I’ll just put it off until the Vier arc ends.
