After being banished by the hero, I decided to join another party – the revival of the legendary hero's team! However, the seductive heroine in her thirties clad in a bikini armor has a mysterious reason why she can't fight! - Episode 21

“Man, Fudra, life is so much easier now that we’ve quit the Demon King subjugation, huh?”

“Told you so.”

In the end, the Hero Party, Black Wing, actually disbanded.

When I mentioned that anyone with enough skill could form a harem party, Dolman proved it by gathering a crowd of applicants. Ignoring skill levels entirely, he just picked women he liked and formed a new party.

Dolman himself is S-rank, but the rest range from B-rank to F-rank.

It’s a strange mix.

Since they don’t venture into dangerous areas, he doesn’t “need” me anymore. Instead, he’s got a D-rank adventurer who’s good at cooking and a C-rank adventurer who’s pretty handy. Seems like they’re living happily ever after.

“Maybe you should just quit being a hero.”

When I said that, well… this is where it led.

The church and the kingdom tried to convince him otherwise, but Dolman was determined. In the end, this was the result.

Apparently, he’s planning to move to a more urban area soon.

As for the other three, they’ve formed a party of their own and are living together.

“Fudraaa~ Can you take care of my sword maintenance and dinner? I want hamburgers tonight!”

“Got it.”

“I’ll have omelets for dinner. Oh, and I’m out of face lotion—can you restock it for me?”

“Understood.”

“I’d like club sandwiches for dinner, please… Thank you.”

“Sure thing.”

And so, I’ve ended up working as something like a manager for them.

I get paid to handle their meals and daily needs.

Since they’re an S-rank party, all the troublesome tasks in town get sent their way.

All they really want from me is my household skills, so this arrangement works out perfectly.

And as for me…

◆◆◆

“Welcome home!”

“I’m back!”

After finishing chores for my three childhood friends, I returned home.

In the morning, I met with them to get their dinner requests, cleaned their rooms, maintained Elza’s backup sword, restocked cosmetics, and prepared meals as they requested.

Of course, I get paid for it.

“Fudra-kun, dinner’s ready!”

“I helped out, too.”

Not only do I cook, but Aisha-san and Orga-san also prepare meals for me.

That makes me incredibly happy.

Even now, the frontlines are still battling the demon tribes.

But here, far away from all that, it’s peaceful.

And even if, by some chance, humanity loses to the demon tribes, it wouldn’t affect us—Aisha-san would protect us.

“Still, today’s meal has garlic again, huh?”

“Well, we’re still newlyweds, so keep working hard, darling.”

“Let’s do our best together, as the three of us always have.”

“Yeah, let’s.”

I’m sure this happy life will continue forever.
