Asuka of the Scarlet Sky

Asuka opens her eyes slowly even though the pain in her chest still remains.

Ah, youre awake?

She looked towards the side where she heard the voice.

Yuutos worried face is seen and Asuka recalled what happened to her.

Yuuto, this place is?

Ah, geez, dont move. The wounds was just blocked

Asuka tried to get up but Yuuto opened his mouth to rebuke her. Confirming that shes laying down in bed, Asuka held the right part of her chest.

This, arena

This is the first aid room. Since you were sleeping, it was lent for overnight

Yuutos fatigued face can be seen. She doesnt know how much time had passed since the fight but since the candle lights are lit, its probably night already. Looking at the window, she saw a beautiful starry sky.

Did he wait for her all this time? Seeing Yuuto felt relieved, Asukas cheeks blushed instinctively.

T-thats right. the wounds Its closed?

Asuka noticed the abnormality on her body for the first time. Theres still some pain but her chest had already returned to her everyday clothes and theres no scar of the hole anywhere.

The arrow Thunderbolt shoot out certainly shouldve gone through her chest.

Asuka stares at her own chest in wonder and Yuuto kept talking while having an expression of relief.

I think the recovery mage cured it. Though I didnt met her, what was her name again? The Eight in the hero ranking

S-Strawberry-san!?

Yuuto nodded at Asukas shout. Yuuto was also surprised as Asukas wounds were completely recovered when he saw her in the first aid room. The high ranks in the heroes are really beyond imagination.

It seems that she came to sightseeing for an emergency. Well thats how many the people who saw over it

Then, a lot of people had a change of heart.

He is one of them but Yuuto didnt say it of course.

That was cool

Instead, he made a brief comment.

Asuka turned around and Yuuto laughed.

While looking at Asuka with his mouth wide open, Yuuto scratched his cheek.

Somehow, I was surprised. Asuka-sama became a real hero

What are you saying?, Yuuto thought

Hes the one who made her a hero. But, Yuuto thought that its beyond an encounter.

Thunderbolt-san is definitely one of theWorlds strongest She might be hated but shes never a coward or a cheater, shes a genuine hero

And, Asuka surpassed her.

Her scarlet sword cut the Gungnir and it didnt reach her. The full power attack she gave certainly exeeded Yuutos Scarlet Skythat time.

The scarlet armor, the scarlet sword, even the ring on her chest, it didnt reach the strongest bow user in the world.

Honestly, its mortifying

Yuuto muttered. But, Yuuto closed his eyes feeling calm.

Then why did she lose?

Thats obvious.

She, that proud bow user wont be defeated by Yuuto.

She

But, Im proud. Im glad that my beared is Asuka-sama

Asuka of the Scarlet Skylost.

Asukas eyes opened wide from Yuutos words. Asuka stared at the smiling Yuuto with wide eyes.

You did your best, Asuka-sama. Youre a true hero

Its a common story.

A story of the hero who pulled the sacred sword.

But they, she asked herself. Is she a suitable person for this?

Is the hero first or the sacred sword? Those kind of things wont be understood by anyone.

However theyll surely find answers someday.,

After all, theyre

Uu, fugu. Uu, Uwaaaaaaaaaaaa!!

Asuka cant hide her tears. She looked up the sky and cried without worrying about the surroundings.

I-I all this timeyou, ugu, youuuuu!

Asuka firmly gripped Yuutos body. Though her heads wet with tears, Yuutos not unsophisticated to tell her that.

Uuuu, egu. To be a suitable hero for you

Its okay. Asuka-sama is my only bearer

Yuuto embraced her.

For someone like me, Yuuto thought. But, theres no doubt.

That itself is heavy. The thing he let this child shoulder.

Godly. Miraculous ability. Yuuto promised to offer the best for this girl of the Scarlet Sky.

For me, Asuka-sama is the best hero in the world

Hearing those words, Asuka asked while sobbing.

Me too, Im glad its you

That moment, even before Yuuto receives the meaning of her words, Asukas lip closed Yuutos.

Falling down, Asuka entrusts her body to Yuuto on the bed.

Yuuto looks surprised from the sudden kiss but Asuka looks down on Yuuto with love.

Im glad that youre my treasure tool

Asukas teary face said that as she smile, Yuuto from down looked up absentmindedly.

The scarlet girl can be compared with the fire on the candlestick.

Slowly, Asukas finger was hung on the hem of the jacket.

Looking at the surprised Yuuto, Asuka slipped her glance bashfully.

But, she can no longer stop.

Leaving her body to the heat in her chest, Asuka advanced.

The jacket dropping made a sound.

Yuutolets do it?

Yuuto did nothing but look up to the scarlet girl that shines like a fire on the candlestick.
