I Played the Role of a Hated Hero, but for Some Reason, I'm Loved by the Last Boss and Living W

Grumpy Companion and Tense Kitten (Part 2)

Translated by AmaLynne

It was the body heat of Demiurge and Behemoth.

Aware of what was being done to me, my cheeks at once became hot as I imagined myself objectively looking at them. 

「Wait, what are you guys doing out of the blue?!」

「Don’t move. I can’t pat it very well, okay?」

「Don’t worry…I’m squeezing it tight…」

「Yes, I’m sure you’re right. Then continue to squeeze husband even more.」

「Gyuuuu~」

No, not「Gyuuuu~」

Even though this is at the end of the park, people are passing by.

The way they have been staring at me since a while ago has been extremely painful!

「As I recall, this is what people do when they want to comfort someone who is depressed, right?」

「No, that’s for little kids! It’s not something a grown man would enjoy!」

Unless you have some special proclivity for it, this is nothing more than public shaming!

「Fufu, then there is no problem. My husband is my good man, but our ages are too far apart to be counted. Husband is nothing more than an infant. Therefore, why don’t you lean your head a little closer to me? I can’t stroke you well if you turn your head away like that.」

「When did I become so depressed in the first place?」

「I saw that husband looked somewhat sad while we were talking earlier. Didn’t Behemoth feel the same way?」

「Yes…eyes, a little sad…gyuu~」

As she says this, Behemoth comes more attached to me, rubbing her cheek against my chest. Demiurge, too, presses her head against my chest and tries to envelop me with her body.

I feel the soft and fluffy touch of a woman all over my body, and the slight thumping of my heartbeat coming from both sides is somewhat comforting.

Ah…I see. I didn’t seem to be as clear as I thought about breaking up with my loved ones.

It must have been so obvious and in-your-face that Demiurge and Behemoth told me I looked depressed and sad.

I almost chuckle at my inadequacy.

「I don’t know what happened. But I do know that he sacrificed himself to protect what was important to him.」

「I’ve put my feelings and values ahead of my own, I’ve hurt people I had nothing to do with, and I’ve caused discomfort to the people I wanted to protect for a long time.」

It must have been unbearable for those who have been pushed around.

But I didn’t want Martina and the others to die. Even if I had given them wounds, I had pushed my ego, believing that as long as they were alive, they would one day be healed.

There is nothing praiseworthy about that.

「Husband, people are selfish, aren’t they? Everyone sees the world only for his convenience. Self-sacrifice is ultimately an act of self-satisfaction. But what is wrong with that?」

「………」

「Husband wanted to protect something. And whatever the result of his actions, he achieved it. Then husband should be proud. No matter what anyone says, you should have confidence in what you have done. I forgive you. Demiurge, the creator god, will forgive you everything.」

「The nature of creatures is selfish…and worrying about it is futile…so do what you want…and I will too! …*suri suri*」

「Be proud, husband. Husband is the greatest and strongest hero of all time who has defeated me.」

「…………」

Oh…that’s somewhat cool.

I rest my head completely on my wife’s chest, relaxing my shoulders and surrendering myself to her.

It’s not fair…I thought.

Demiurge, Behemoth, and me.

They are all cunning.

Because they are not human, they accepted me from an objective point of view, not with morality there, but with a bird’s eye view of what it means to be human.

I felt a little distant from them the other day because of their different ways of being a creature, but now I want to be spoiled by the comfort of their differences.

Really, it’s not fair.

But,

「Thank you. Demiurge, Behemoth.」

「Fufu. It is rare to have a weak husband. Good boy, good boy. Go ahead and spoil more. As a wife, I want to wrap you up in his shame. Here, here, squeeze, squeeze, squeeze.」

「Mmm~……Lord, I want to stroke the head, too…」

「No, you can’t. I can’t give up this seat.」

「Stingy~……」

The girls’ bodies and the not-too-heavy atmosphere seemed to slow me down.

I am sure that even after all this, the guilt nestled inside me will never go away.

Still, as long as they are with me, I will never be alone.

I vowed once again to cherish my encounters with these women.

―――Incidentally, later on, I told them about a trip I used to take.

I told them that the party I was in had no other men in it, and I had to work hard to comfort the Demiurge who became unhappy, but that’s another story.
