Chapter 24 : Encounter (Sigurd’s POV)
T/N : Another encounter chapter. This time from Sigurd’s POV!
——————————————————
“Hah? Malik-san?”
“Yes, he contacted through magical communication device. Please follow me to use the device.” The guild staff said.
After I finished my quest today I was about to report my quest but the guild staff told me that Malik-san had left me a message.
I decided to report my quest later and followed the staff instead.
Inside the room, there was the device and a bed next to it.
Why the hell there was a bed in here ??
For what purpose??
I picked up the device and sat on the bed.
[Malik-san? This is Sigurd.]
[Oi, Sigurd. It’s been a while.]
[Yeah, anyway what’s up? It’s rare for you to contact me.]
More like, this was the first time Malik-san ever contacted me.
Even though I was an A-rank adventurer, it was still unusual for Malik-san to contact me.
Especially when he was one of the best adventurer ever and now he worked as guild master.
[Sigurd, you.. Are you going to Calhea this year?]
[Calhea? Ah yeah, I think I will go..]
Ever since I became an adventurer, I always went to Calhea every year but I wonder why Malik-san asking me that?
[My son-, ah yeah I have a son now. He’s an otherworlder, I met him a while back and I decided to adopt him as my son. Anyway my son’s going to Calhea so why don’t you try to meet him there?]
[Hoo! An otherworlder! Sure,sure I don’t mind since I already planned on going to Calhea anyway.]
An otherworlder huh.
I wonder did he also have petite build and black hair?
[Fufu~ I’m sure you will have a fateful encounter when you meet with my Ren.]
[Ho? So you think your son will change my life? And his name is Ren?]
[Yeah, his name is Ren. Well, when you meet him you will understand.]
An encounter that will change your life huh..
Of course, I also dreamed of such things but I didn’t think I will actually have one such encounter.
Especially since I was a beastman.
A beastman is very picky when choosing their partner.
Although physical appearance and various other factor is important, the most important thing is the scent.
Up until now, I’ve never met someone with scent that makes me feel like, ‘Ah, I want to be with this person forever’.
Well since I’m a full grown man, I’ve had flings here and there but I’ve never consider marriage yet.
[I will be looking forward to it then.]
[Ah, there’s another thing. I’ve also contacted Fer and Chris. Well, as for Chris I didn’t actually introduce them, more like Chris found my Ren and did as he please per usual. It seems like Chris already fallen for Ren.]
[Chris?? That Chris?? That playboy??]
Seemed like Malik-san really went all out when searching for his son’s future spouse.
Both Chris and Fer were A-ranked adventurer.
They were also easy on eyes.
If it was the two of them, there won’t be any need to worry for money too.
Ah but I was more curious to what kind of people can make that infamous Chris to fall for him.
[After you guys finished with the quest, come home together to Pedrell. Let’s have a drink with everyone.]
[I got it. Please prepare a good sake for me then!]
Then, I said my goodbye to Malik-san.
I couldn’t wait to go to Calhea soon!
———————————————————
After I arrived at Calhea, I deposited my horse and went to the inn.
As I walked through the street, I saw the amount of people coming to Calhea kept on increasing every year.
Even though the sun was still up, I can see female and male prostitute looking for customers on the street too.
Well, adventurers were full of energy and stamina after all.
A lot of people will go and wind up a little before the quest start to refresh both their mind and body.
“Eh? Ice Prince, Lightning Twin Sword Chris and also Silver Wolf is here? Wow! There’s a lot of A-ranked adventurer this year!” I heard another adventurer spoke out loud.
Seemed like those two were already here.
I wonder whether I can meet with them today.
Not long after, there was a red haired women coming up to me.
“Fufu, do you want to have some fun with me?” She said while linking her body around my arm.
“Ah, I’m already waiting for somebody. Go search for some other customer.”
I didn’t have time to play with prostitute.
First, I need to search for some food and then start looking for him.
“I’m an adventurer! I’m not that kind of girl!” That girl suddenly yelled.
“Ah, my bad. Bye then.”
I paid that women (who turned out to be an adventurer, not prostitute) no mind and continue walking.
“What the hell? Are you trying to make fun of me?!”
I didn’t really understand but she seemed really upset.
She kept on yelling even though I already left her.
Well whatever.
First thing first, I need food!
Maybe I will grab some grub at the inn?
————————————————————
When I entered the inn, I saw the patron inside seemed to be fusing around on the back.
Was something there?
Oh, wasn’t that Fer?
“Ren-chan!~ This karaage is so tender and juicy! It tastes exceptionally delicious, especially if you dip it in soy sauce! So good!”
“Yes, this onigiri is also delicious and the filling.. Is it fish?
“I don’t know the name of the fish but I grilled it and minced it into small pieces as the filling. I’m glad my cooking suit your taste.”
Hm?
It looked like Fer was eating a dish with fish filling made by that black haired boy.
That black haired boy had a sweet and crisp voice.
Somehow..
I felt entranced to him.
I wanted to hear his voice more.
I wanted to be near him.
Those feeling flood through me like a broken dam.
“Thank you for waiting, here’s your tea.” A waitress came with their drinks.
“Thank you very much.” The black haired boy received the drinks and gave his thanks.
“Is it delicious? Let me have a bite too~”
Seeing an opening, I surged down to chomp on the food held by the boy.
“Eh?!”
When the boy turned around, I was greeted by a pair of deep black onyx staring at me.
On reflex, I immediately grabbed the falling food and took a bite.
It was extremely delicious.
“Oh~ Sig-chan, you surprised Ren-chan~ Come come, take a seat.”
I didn’t realize that Chris was also with them.
He beckoned for me to sit with them.
When I was about to sit, suddenly a gentle and sweet scent pierced through me.
I inhaled those tantalizing scent again.
It smelled so sweet, like the finest ambrosia nectar, suited for God.
I felt myself swayed around by the scent.
This..This might be bad..
“Yo, Chris! It’s been a while since I last saw you! But, really this food is super delicious. Hey Ren, won’t you be my bride?”
“Oh? Sig are you proposing to Ren-kun as well?”
I wanted to say that I knew by the scent of this boy, he was the one for me but only beastman understand such sentiment.
Ordinary human like them wouldn’t be able to understand it.
And not only that this boy had the sweetest scent I’ve ever smelled but this food that he cooked also tasted really good.
I’d be the happiest man alive if I could eat such delicious food everyday.
No matter what, I would definitely make this boy my bride!
“Umm..”
“You see, Malik-san told me that I might have a life changing meeting and this meal is super delicious, exactly my taste so I thought to myself ‘perhaps this is it?!’. I will say it again, this food deserves a perfect score from me!”
I see..
So this is my fateful encounter.
Thank you Malik-san!
“Oooh~ Is this… Love at first sight?~ I heard that beastman often live according to their instinct, so I guess this is it? Your instinct tell you that Ren-chan is the one then~”
“Yup, my instinct told me so. That’s why Ren, should we get married now?”
I didn’t see anything wrong by living according to our instinct.
Although rather than love at first sight, it was more like love at first smell.
However as I paid this boy a closer look, I see that he was physically attractive as well.
His silky black hair was tied in a small ponytail, revealing his slender, long neck.
Ah, I wanted to sink my fang into those neck.
His black onyx eyes looked so mesmerizing, I feel like I was going to drown myself if I keep staring at those eyes.
His small plump lips with a little pink tint looked so delectable.
I wanted to taste those lips against mine.
Though physically speaking, he looked about.. 50% smaller than me?
He looked so fragile but I don’t mind.
His size was perfect to me, he would fits perfectly in my arms.
“Eh?! U-umm, since we’ve only just met, I think it’s still too soon to talk about marriage. Can you please give me time to consider it?”
Ah, looked like he didn’t want to accept my offer yet.
But he didn’t say no, so that meant I still have a chance!
“Really, Sig you always act before you think. Ren-kun, let’s just ignore this fellow and continue with our feast.”
“Y-yes.”
Ah, right!
I haven’t introduced myself yet!
“Mind your own business, Fer. I know it already. Ah by the way, I know you already knew my name but let me introduce myself. My name is Sigurd Tyselius. As you can see, I’m a wolf beastman. Malik-san told me to come home with you, please treat me well!”
“Nice to meet you, my name’s Ren. I’m an otherworlder. Is it okay if I call you Sig-san?”
“Yeah, of course!”
I felt my heart bursting in happiness when I heard him call out my name with his gentle voice.
I wanted him to call my name more..
“Anyway Sig, why are you eating Ren-chan’s meal so nonchalantly like that? You’re going to decrease our portion~”
I kept on eating the food in front of me.
If there was a delicious food in front of you, of course you can’t help but to have a bite, right?
And I was starving, there was no way I can held myself back!
“Because it tastes so good! Ren, is it okay if I eat as well?”
“Ah.. Well I still have plenty of food in my magic bag so I don’t mind.”
Ren grabbed his magic bag and took out more food.
“Oh, this is also delicious. Ren-kun, you’re really skilled at cooking.”
“Yeah, delish! I really want you to become my bride.”
“Hey, get in line!~ I’m also running as Ren-chan’s spouse candidate! Ren-chan, this egg is so fluffy and full of flavor, so tasty!”
When the three of us praised his food, Ren’s cheeks turned pink.
Damn, that was adorable!
“Ah that’s right, we’re going to form a party together so Sig do you want to come with us too? You’re about to go solo, right?”
“Ooh, sounds good! Count me in!”
I didn’t have any reason to refuse them.
Apparently Chris already went ahead off me and told Ren that he wanted Ren to become his bride as well.
Well I didn’t mind if Ren had multiple spouse but if possible, I wanted to be his first husband..
—————————–
“Oi oi ! Can you believe it?? That Silver Wolf is going to join their party too!”
“Seriously?! With Ren?!”
“Yeah! And I also heard that he proposed to Ren? But I think he was joking around.”
“Ugh, the corner that those 4 sit on looks so sparkly.”
——————————-
Ah, the people around us were so noisy.
How in the hell did he think I was joking around??
Well I did agree that this table stood out a lot.
The fifth prince of Aspel with the nickname Ice Prince, Fer.
The first son of some noble family, Lightning Twin Sword Chris.
And lastly me, Silver Wolf.
Ren didn’t have a nickname yet but he was an otherworlder with exceptional beauty.
Out of 4 people sitting here, 3 of them were A-ranked.
Of course we will gather attention.
“Then, after we finish eating let’s register our party.”
“Y-yes!”
——————————————–
T/N : There we go. So, who’s your fav harem member so far? Well, I personally like Sigurd the best! I always have soft spot for dogs~ And especially those ‘fall in love because of the scent’ things, exactly like ABO tropes that I like!
