Master Hurt!

　I transition to the royal castle in Alheim, and Tina is waiting there, hugging me. Something as big and soft as ever is pressed against me.

　Yes, I'm happy.

'Tina, I'm home.'
Welcome back.

Mr. Hurt, welcome back. I'm so glad you're safe.

　Rifa hugged me too.

'Rifa, I'm home.'

　I realize that I'm back with two wives in my arms.

'Lord, you are welcome back.
"Welcome back. Mr. Hurt.

I'm home!

　Yoko, Mai, and May come up to me as well. If they found out they were under contract with me, there was a chance that the former general would order me to call them out, so this time they were helping me to evacuate the people.

'Halt welcome back,'

"Oh, I'm home..." "Hey, Luke, your ultimate magic fell right on me!

Oh, yeah?　Sorry, sorry. But Halt would be able to withstand it if it hit you.

　No, we had a meeting about not guessing!

　That's why I didn't use defensive magic.
　I'm sure you'll be able to find a way to make it work.

　I was chatting with my friends when the Elf King came in.

"You've done a great job, Hurt. You have my deepest gratitude.

　The Elf King bowed to me.

'No, I was only defending my wife's homeland. King, please raise your head.'

Can you call me Father, please?　The marriage between you and Rifa is now officially recognized in our country. That means I'm going to be Hurt's father-in-law.

!!!
Oh, Father...

　Rifa blushes in embarrassment.

''So, from now on, I will call you Father-in-law, except in an official capacity.

'Mmm, sounds good. I can't wait to go say hello to Hurt's parents. If you want, I can write them a letter.

'No, that's not good enough. I'm the third son, and I'm sure my parents wouldn't be opposed to the marriage.

'Well, that's good. I'm looking forward to celebrating my son as the hero who saved this country.

　You're going to make a fuss about...

　Well, since you're taking Rifa, who is loved by many of the people, you have to be at least a saving hero, right?

　I've decided to take the Elf King's proposal to get the people of Alheim to congratulate me on my marriage to Rifa.

　Do I have to make a speech or something?
　I'm nervous about speaking in front of a lot of people and all that.

　What, when you spoke to the Apristos State Army?
　That was a lot of tension, so I managed it.


　That's how I was told by the Elf King that tomorrow he was going to celebrate me as a hero of the kingdom and announce to the people that he was going to marry Tina and Rifa.

　Tomorrow?
　Isn't that too soon?

　The reason why it was tomorrow was because the people who had been evacuated from the royal capital would return tomorrow.

　Apparently, the ministers said that since they had won the war and defended the country, if it was true, they should honor their heroes today with the whole country.

　However, the Elf King decided to postpone it to tomorrow because he thought it would be sad if there were not enough people to honor the heroes.


　─ ─ ─ ─ ─ ─

　So I came to my parents' house with Tina and Rifa in transition.

We're home. Are you home, Dad?

Mr. Hurt, welcome back. The Count should be in his study.

　I approached the maid who was cleaning the garden and asked her where my father was.

'Welcome back too, Tina. Um ... how are you over here?

Oh, you're my wife to be.
Nice to meet you, my name is Rifa-Alheim.

What?

Oh, I'm going to marry Mr. Hurt.

...Yes?

　The maid froze, holding her broom.
　Leaving the maid alone, we headed to my father's study.


'Father, this is Hurt.'
Oh, you're home. Come on in.

　I'm going into my father's office.

"I see you're with Tina. How's your daughter?

　My father noticed Tina and Rifa.

'It's nice to meet you, my name is Rifa-Alheim, the second princess of the Kingdom of Alheim.

"Alheime-the land of the elves. Why did the princess from there come here with my son?

　I look at Rifa and Tina.
　They give me a small nod.

'Father, I'm going to marry these two.
What?

　My father froze.

'No, no, no, no, wait a minute. I understand Tina. You've always said that you want to make Halt your husband in the future.

　When I was born, Tina thought I was the reincarnation of a hero who traveled with her in the past, so she asked my father to make her my personal maid, even though she was the hero who saved the world.

　I'm not going to be able to get away with it, because I'm a hero, but my father accepted the request.

The problem is what to do about His Highness Rifa. You're not going to be able to find out what's going on in the world.
What are you talking about?

Mother!

　Before I knew it, my mother had come into the room and was tugging on my father's ear.

'Halt, I heard from the maid that you're marrying Tina and your Rifa over there. Congratulations, I congratulate you.

　My mother approved of our marriage.

'Thank you, mother,'

'Yes, I'm so lucky to have such a lovely bride for my son. I hope you both take care of Hurt for me.

Yes!
Thank you, ma'am.

"Tina, if you're going to marry Hurt, will you call me your mother-in-law from now on?

Yes, ma'am.

　Tina calls out to your mother, blushing.

'Yeah, that sounds good,'

　Your mother seems to be delighted.

''Um ... may I call you that too?''

'Of course!　Rifa-san, from now on, you can come and visit me anytime you want, as if this were your home.

'Thank you. Mother-in-law.

So, call your father and me...

　Your mother was staring at your father like a demon.

　I felt sorry for him, but it was his fault for being so angry with my wife.

　And so, my marriage report went well(?). It ended in the Both my parents approved of the marriage.

　I tell them briefly about the events in Alheim and that I have to return soon.

　My father is an earl and my mother has her own work to do, so she can't attend the wedding reception tomorrow in Alheim.

　Later on, we will again have a human wedding and reception at the Count's estate in Glendale.


　When I was getting ready to return to Alheim in the transfer, my mother was handing something to Tina and Rifa.

''This, I was going to give it to the person who will be Hurt's bride.

　I gave Rifa a necklace.
　I gave Tina a bracelet.

'Thank you, mother-in-law,'
Thank you. I'll take good care of it.

Have a safe trip home. I'm looking forward to the wedding.

　As the three of us waved back at my mother, we transitioned to Alheim.
