My childhood friend, who I promised to marry in the future, came back as a swordsman

 
Chapter 94: Dad and Mom


{TL: By Creed}


"......So, starting today, Aisha-chan is our daughter!"

Sofia and the others suddenly came into my room... and said this.

Seeing me in a daze, Sofia looked worried.

"Could it be that you are against this, Fate?"

"No, it's not that..."

It was just so sudden that I was a bit surprised.

After organizing the information for a moment, I looked at Aisha. I crouched down to meet her eyes.

"Aisha, do you want to be our child?"

"...Yes."

Without hesitation, Aisha nodded firmly, looking at me as if clinging to hope.

"...I want to be together..."

I felt a strong urge to protect her. I also wanted to be together with her.

This is bad. I might end up agreeing unconditionally to whatever Aisha says.

But before that, I needed to confirm something.

"I'm going to ask you something difficult. What about your... real parents, Aisha?"

"......"

Aisha silently shook her head.

"I see... I was thinking of finding your village and sending you back there, but what about your village?"

"......"

Again, she silently shook her head.

So, Aisha has nothing... at the moment.

"Poor thing..."

"You've been through so much..."

Behind me, Sofia and Licorice were crying. I understand how they feel, but their tears are ruining the atmosphere, especially when we're having such an important conversation... hmm.

But maybe this is just how we are. Thinking about the other person, staying close to their heart, sharing the same feelings. Being together like this is probably very important.

"I'm sorry for making you remember something painful."

"...It's okay."

"But if that's the case, then I welcome you."

"Oh...!"

Aisha's face brightened up.

"It's just that I'm a bit worried... is it okay for someone like me to be your parent?"

"Yes."

Another immediate response. I'm a little happy.

"I see. Then... come here."

"Okay!"

I spread my arms wide, and Aisha jumped into them energetically. She probably intended to be affectionate, but she didn't quite know her own strength.

I got pushed a bit... but I'm not so weak that I would fall over from just this.

Sofia has been training me regularly... and more importantly, if I fell, Aisha might get hurt.

I hugged Aisha tightly in my arms and then patted her head. Aisha squinted her eyes in pleasure, her dog ears twitching and her tail wagging vigorously from side to side.

"Okay, from today on, Aisha is our daughter."

"Yes."

"Nice to meet you, Aisha."

"Yes!"

Aisha's face lit up with a big smile. Seeing that made me feel a strange sensation.

My heart felt warm, and I felt an endless happiness. I couldn't help but smile naturally.

"Um, um..."

"What's wrong?"

"...Daddy."

"Oof."

Aisha looked up at me with her big eyes and said that. She was incredibly cute. So cute that I felt like my heart might just give out.

"Mommy."

Next, Aisha looked at Sofia and said this...

"Wha!?"

Sofia almost fainted.

Making a sword saint almost faint... Aisha must be quite the amazing child.

"Um..."

Aisha looked at Licorice and hesitated. I'm her dad. Sofia is her mom. So what about Licorice?

"Call me Licorice Onee-chan!"

"Licorice... Onee-chan."

"Eek!"

Licorice put her hand to her chest, wobbled, and then collapsed. It seemed Aisha's cuteness worked on fairies too.

"W-What's wrong...?"

Seeing our reactions, Aisha panicked. It's understandable. Calling us caused us to fall one by one, so she must have been worried.

"It's okay... yes, it's okay. It's just that Aisha is too cute."

"That's right, there's no problem. In fact, from now on, having such a cute Aisha-chan call me mommy makes me nothing but happy."

"Heh, ufufu... Onee-chan, Licorice Onee-chan... kuh."

"Huh...?"

From an outsider's perspective, it must have been quite a strange scene...

But anyway, we became a family that day.

TL Note: Cuteness overlord.

My childhood friend, who I promised to marry in the future, came back as a swordsman.

Chapter 1: The reality that I longed for is harsh and painful {TL: By Creed} "Hey, don't stroll around leisurely, you Useless man!" Insults were flying, and the target was me. "I-I'm... sorry..." My reply came out in gasps, as it should. After all, I was carrying a load that was tens of kilos heavier than my own body. In such a state, I had been walking through the dungeon for hours without a break. It was non-stop. It was only natural that I was out of breath, my clothes drenched in sweat, as if I had been doused in water. I wondered if I was experiencing dehydration; my legs were wobbly, and I felt like I might collapse if I let my guard down. "Hurry up, you slacker! You're practically useless except for carrying stuff," Sigurd, the leader of the A-rank party 'Flarebird,' berated me. He held the title of 'Swordmaster' and was the party's main attacker, constantly in action. "Sigurd, you're such a brute. Fate is so...

  Chapter 4 Party formation {TL: By Creed} After that, we changed locations and moved to a different inn and restaurant. Since Sigurd and the others stayed behind, I'm not sure what happened to them, but... It seems like Sigurd took an incredibly powerful blow, so he probably won't wake up for a while. "Sister, I'll have orange juice and a parfait." "..." "What about Fate?" "..." "Fate, what's wrong?" "Huh!?" When asked the question, I snapped back to reality. "Oh, um, yeah. Sorry... um, I'll have coffee, please." "Okay. Orange juice and coffee. And a parfait, right? Please wait a moment." The waitress nodded and left. Alone again, I looked at Sofia once more. "It's been a while, Fate." "...Is it really you, Sofia?" "Yes, it's me. Or does Fate see someone else when Fate looks at me?" "No, it's not like that. I would never mistake my precious...

  Chapter 3 Escape from the current situation and reunion {TL By: Creed} "What's going on, you incompetent fool!!!" "Guah!?" Sigurd's angry voice was hurled at me, and then I was struck again. I was thrown to the floor. This place was an inn and dining hall, so there were other customers present. However, Sigurd had a notorious reputation as a rough adventurer, and nobody wanted to get involved. Naturally, they pretended not to notice me. However... Being a slave, even if someone with good intentions were to stand up for me, they couldn't help me. How slaves were treated was entirely up to their master. There were no human rights. "You dropped the loot we worked so hard to get, didn't you? Hey, hey, hey! What the hell are you doing? How much do you think today's earnings have decreased because of you?" "I'm sorry... Ugh!?" I was kicked hard in the abdomen. It was a powerful blow that lifted me off the ground. It hurt. I cu...
