Hero Manufacturing Machine ~A Job to Make Children~ Chapter 1

Chapter 0 Prologue ①

Information is the most important for an adventurer.

For that reason, I’m looking at the newspaper as usual.

「Return soon, Sharuru」

If it’s just these you can find this information everywhere but the problem is the advertiser.

I have nine elder stepbrothers there so it’s a country that won’t have a problem without me.

Since they can’t pinpoint where I’m staying, they sent the same advertisement on various places and various medium.

It’s not just that. Feeling that, I decided to return home immediately.

The sword is as light as a feather because it’s made of special metal, the armor set has a moderate defensive power, it can be converted to a lightweight ring due to magic, the shield is light and small, I chose a hard buckler.

My luggage is proof of identity, traveling expense, mobile food and water bottle and a magic back that’s packed with fast acting recovery magic.

I can use wagons as much as possible in a wagon locations, I’ll walk on dangerous places where wagons can’t pass, I feel reluctant to give up and advance on foot to home.

I finally reached Braidea Kingdom’s castle, my home.

I changed the armor set into a ring and shoulder the shield and the sword is just there.

I slowly advanced and the gate soldier called me.

When I told them, the two looked at me with suspicious eyes.

「I know about it but even if you told me, such a prince dressed like that…」

「I have a proof of royalty, would you mind me taking it out from my bosom?」

「It’s certainly a royal coat of arms. But that’s not…」

My face isn’t well known compared to the other princes, people with high social position suits itself with garments but it’s not necessary if it’s usual.

「It lights up when a blood of a relative is dripped on the blade, is it no good even if I show it?」

The aforementioned proof now turned to be a mere façade.

「Then, can you call out Claude-sama’s wife, Nine-sama? She can Identify me for you」

He also dropped out of the race for power like me as well, he’s close to my age compared to my other brothers so we get along.

She’s one of the person who’d be glad and rush when she heard my name.

‘Person of doubtful origin’ came

「I don’t mind you putting me on bars. If she saw my face she’d immediately know that I’m Yusharurushu」

「I can’t just imprison you but it can’t be helped…」

「It’s work after all. Don’t think badly of us okay?」

「It’s better than a guard that’s a drinker. Though I don’t have much influence, I’ll tell the king about your eager work」

「You’re not like a prince at all. Royalty should’ve been more bossy」

While we’re having such a silly conversation, an expected person came.

As soon as my face is seen on the bars, the gate was opened and she rushed.

She said while clinging into me.

「You’ll get dirty, Elder Sister Nine」1

「I’m being reunited with my cute brother in law. I don’t mind such things」

「You didn’t come back at all. I was worried」

The gate soldier who watched our exchange called out fearfully.

「Yes, he’s definitely Yusharurushu, My brother in law」

「Thank you for your works. You can return to your duties」

「Didn’t you say that it’s work? Don’t mind it」

「Long time no see. How is elder brother and Dia?」

「Dia is healthy. …that person…you still know nothing right?…」2

「…Father in law is waiting for you. …Let’s go and meet him」

The vassals who saw my appearance whispered to each other.

「Yusharurushu had just returned」

「I’m sorry for being late and having such an appearance」

「What is to apologize for. I understand that you hastened wholeheartedly from your figure. You did well」

My father had respected my intention.

Thinking so, I decided to ask.

「Yes」

Brave Road house is a blood of Heroes. The world now is underdeveloped so humans desire to exterminate demons in order to expand human territory.

「With all due respect Your Majesty」

「My rank should be the most under. Isn’t there other people who’s much more qualified?」

Towards those who are higher in rank, I can’t be said good as a lineage.

「None, you mean to say?」

I haven’t understood the meaning.

「All of my elder brothers!?」

There’s no problem if one, two or five died when it comes to the heir, it’s usual for a royal family to have six children.

It’s too much to think if it’s normal.

「It’s no wonder that you’re surprised. I can’t believe it yet either」

「Let’s continue」

「Though I don’t object, there are a lot of people who don’t know you well. There’s also more that are skeptical about your ability. To convince those people, you would have a trial to keep in your mind」

Afterwards, I told the king about the gate soldier that I admired for his enthusiasm and ended the conversation.

When the King ordered, a maid appeared with a drink without making me wait.

Such luxury is also a privilege of a royalty

「…」

「Rude! Are you trampling the kindness of His Majesty?!」

「It’s fine. Yusharurushu is probably thinking of something」

「Didn’t you hear me? I said that it’s fine」

As expected of a previous hero.

That vassal couldn’t help but shrink on the spot.

Saying that, the king cleared out everyone.

Confirming that all of them are gone, the king began to speak.

「Yes?」

「With all due respect, Majesty」

「I wish to express my gratitude for your thoughtfulness. However, I don’t need escorts. I’ll be really sorry if you have to cut off the precious staff for such a thing」

「I think there’s none who think of me as pleasant, that said, is Fassone-sama around?」3

「I looked it up and can’t find any words to return」

「You’re too kind」

「Yes. Fassone-sama is a honest person. He isn’t sly to harm me stealthily」

「The other widows would be no problem I guess. Since other than Nine-sama, there’s no one that’s thinking about me for better or for worse」

There’s no one higher in me in place for candidacy, there should be no reason for the widow to dislike my existence.

Well, Fassone is the only one who wouldn’t treat me differently, but it seems that she’s convinced when from the point when the king trusts me and chose me as a successor.

「Even if I’m gone, I think there’s nothing to benefit. If I must say, it’s on the level of a mentally offensive person disappearing」

There’s no one who’d be gloomy if I’m not here but more than what’s obtained, they won’t be harmed it seems, that’s mine and the King’s conclusion.

「I know your competence. If you say so, it won’t be necessary to use unneeded expenses without regret. Do as you like」

「Instead of being escorted, you’re giving thanks for having escorts removed. You really are strange」

「Let’s end our conversation. You must be tired from a long journey. There’s a room prepared so clean off the dirt and relax」
