The three of us, Hurst-san, the pretty boy and the me, who has lost the light moved to my room .
And the pretty boy didn't stop scraping the innermost part of my heart .
STOP .
I don't have any more HP left .
We did a simple greeting as soon as we arrived in my room
" Isarai-sama, he is Larry Grant Surge" ( eunie: Okay so his full name in Japanese is Reri Grand (Grant) Surge . Any suggestion or should I just go for Larry Grant Surge)
"My name is Larry Grant . Please call me Larry"
"Lary, this is Shina Isarai-sama . The person I am escorting . "
"I'm Isarai"
Hurst-san easily introduces us to each other . As I sat on the sofa, the pretty boy who is sitting beside me is sticking way close to me while Hurst-san is standing in front of us while holding the glass jar with detox water inside and then I gave a rough explanation of the current situation .
About how Larry-kun was sitting on the hallway and how I suddenly called out to him and how I couldn't help but try to help him who was having a fever and looks like he was in so much pain . And the reason why I left the training grounds for a bit to make refreshment for Hurst-san and how I just happened to give it to Larry-kun . Then there was some black stuff that came out ―― .
"Hurst-san?"
Well, for now, I was somehow able to explain most of it to him . Hurst-san did look like he was able to understand everything immediately but I still thought it's important to explain everything to him because he might also be bewildered with the flow of events that happened .
But somehow, Hurst-san's mouth seems to loosen . . . . . . .
. . . . . . But for some reason, it seems like Hurst-san is smiling .
" . . . . . . . Refreshments"
And then as if he was sighing he muttered, as he stares happily at the glass jar he was holding .
Eh? That one?
More than the black cloud looking things, it's the refreshment?
. . . . . . Was he that hungry?
Or could it be because he was quite thirsty because of the training?
I think it would have been better if I prepared some tea . It seems like Hurst-san realize that I was staring at him and then he cleared his throat once and returned to the usual expression he always has .
"In short, Isarai-sama who was passing by the corridor you found the collapsed Larry and since you were carrying a glass jar with a drink inside so you gave it to him . "
"Ah, yes . "
"What onee-san gave me is extremely pretty and it was cold . . . . . . . I kinda didn't want to drink something that was given by a person I didn't know but I really wanted to drink it"
"I see . Normally I'd get mad and tell you not to do anything dangerous, but since it is something that Isarai-sama made then it couldn't be helped"
It couldn't be helped if you want to drink it after seeing it .
'I extremely understand' Hurst-san said as he nodded in understanding .
"And then after drinking it, some black stuff appeared and after that, your body started to feel light?"
"Yup . My chest that was hurting so bad and my feverish body seems to have disappeared and I felt at ease"
"I see . "
Hurst-san and Larry-kun continued their conversation and for the meantime, the me who was beside them was just listening to their conversation as I faced head on Hurst-san's light blue eyes .
" . . . . . . . Isarai-sama, from the day he was born Larry's constitution isn't that strong . He holds a strong skill however he was suffering from it . "
" . . . . . . I see . "
"My skill is 'Fire magic' . I couldn't really control it and I was always one step away from death"
And then Larry looked straight at me with those light green eyes of his .
"It was still alright when I was still a kid . I have a weak but at the same time the skill was also still weak . So there was still some balance between the two . But as my body grows, my skill also got stronger . . . . . . . For me to contain it, I have to conserve my physical strength and to seal it away I have to wear a lot of magic equipment ――But I did think it was reaching it's limit"
And then Larry-kun showed me the silver necklace he was wearing, the bracelet he was wearing on his wrist . I'm sure these are the magic equipments he was talking about that he was using to contain his strong skill and to prolong his life"
"A, but . . . . didn't I just do something really bad . . . . . . . "
All this time I had Hurst-san eat my food and the people who always eats it gets influenced and that is by 'eating it you'll get stronger' . The physical abilities increases and the skill gets stronger .
For Larry-kun isn't it bad to make his skill 'stronger' . It seems like depending on the power of his skill, isn't it like making the 'poison' inside his body also get stronger . . . . . . ?
Feeling anxious, I looked over at Hurst-san and as if to wipe away my worries he nodded his head and looked at Larry-kun and with a strong voice he continued explaining .
"Larry since you've eaten Isarai-sama's dish, I know you have understand that Isarai-sama has a mysterious skill"
"Yup"
"Isarai-sama's dish is . . . . . . "
"Onee-san's dish is . . ?"
"If you eat it you'll get stronger"
"If you eat it you'll get stronger"
A, that one, from before .
"And after looking at the change that happened to Larry, I was able to confirm another thing and that is . . . . . . "
"That is . . . . . . "
"If you eat it you'll get stronger"
" 'If you eat it you'll get stronger' "
A new one appeared .
What's with that sennin sounding like beans .
It's like raising a cat .
"I've always been thinking about this that there might be an effect to recover from fatigue or cure illness . But I've never really felt any fatigue, got sick or injured . And if I did it will just immediately heal, so I wasn't able to confirm it . "
"Yup, Vol-san has always been strong"
" . . . . . . You're quite healthy"
As expected of the polar bear Hurst-san . He doesn't get tired, doesn't get injured and can immediately recover!
"I think, the increase in the physical ability, fatigue restoration and injury and illness recovery made some changes inside Larry's body . It's not bad to have a strong body . It's just that Larry's body is just like a cup that cracked, it's small but the amount inside of that cup is way too many . Even if you try to fix the cup, there's still way too much inside that's why it's useless to fix it . "
"Un . I did thought of making my body stronger by exercising outside, or training my magic in able to properly control it but I still couldn't do it and if I don't have enough stamina my life is in danger"
"But because of Isarai-sama, the cup was able to be restored and what's more I think it became a bigger cup . Isarai-sama was able to increase the size inside the cup . And by just making the cup bigger then there's nothing to worry about"
I see . In other words if you eat it you'll become healthy, and since you become stronger the skill wouldn't have to go on a rampage .
That's why Larry-kun is ―― .
" . . . . . . Then the thing I was always worried about with my skill . . . . . . whether I'll still be able to live for another day . . . . . . "
―― There's nothing to worry about anymore .
What a sad sounding voice .
And then I felt my left arm being hugged tightly .
"Thank you . . . . . . . Tha,nk . . . . . . "
"Un"
"I, . . . . . . I, really . . . . . . for a long time . . . . . . "
"Un"
"I, I'm always scared . . . . . . "
"Un"
"Always in pain . . . . . . "
"Un"
This is just a sudden turn of events .
I don't think I did something I should be thanked for, even my power isn't something to be proud off . But . . . But still . . . after learning that he's been enduring it with his small body . . . . . .
"I'm glad I was able to meet you, Larry-kun and I'm really glad that I was able to help you"
While he was still hugging my arm and his head still looking down, I patted his blue hair in a 'yoshi-yoshi' manner and then Hurst-san also came near us and kneeled in one knee and said, "I know that Larry has been suffering . I thought maybe Isarai-sama has the power to help you but I didn't let the two of you meet"
"U, un . . . . . . un . It's fine . It's not Vol-san's fault that my body is like this . I also know that Vol-san has defeated a lot of of demon beasts to use it in making this magic equipments . I have nothing but thanks to Vol-san"
Hearing Hurst-san's sincerity, Larry-kun who was feeling down immediately raised his face and then he smiled and with his tear-streaked face, his light green eyes looked at me .
" And I also understand Vol-san's feelings ―― that we have to properly protect (it/her) . "
" … … Ah"
Hurst-san's light blue eyes looked at me and being stared at by these two pair of eyes is somehow making my heart feel weird . . . . . . . . .
"MY! MY LARRY IS!!"
Then we suddenly heard a large voice echoing outside and then the door slammed open and the one who appeared is a guy with blue hair .
Upon seeing the Larry-kun who was clinging to me, he screamed .
"Ah! Aaaaaaaaaah! My cute bunny/rabbit is . . . . . . !
