Apparently, I’m a Childhood Friend of a Saint in the World of Light Novels, and When We Meet Again After a Few Years at School, She’s Turned into Some Kind of Yandere?
A few days had passed since I met Charlotte chan.
I was beginning to sort through the memories of another world that had suddenly poured into my head.
I sat cross-legged on my bed, crossed my arms and thought.
I want to be friends with Charlotte chan forever.
If my memories are correct, when we were 10 years old, Charlotte chan was adopted by a noble family and we were separated.
So we meet again at Nobilitas Academy. ……
Ten years later, when I was 15, I happened to be at the scene where the prince was about to be assassinated during the entrance exam of the school, and I died defending the prince.
“I’m going to die protecting the prince. …… I’d like to die protecting Charlotte chan in any case. ……”
I have heard that there is indeed a prince of the same age as me in this country.
In the light novel, it seems that the demon lord who is trying to destroy this world has unleashed a powerful monster among the demon lord’s army during the school’s entrance exam in order to assassinate the prince.
It was a demon so strong that Charlotte chan and the princes, who had become stronger towards the end of the story, managed to defeat it by joining forces.
So I was trying to protect the prince when I was killed by the demon.
I think I’m a bit of a softy, but when Charlotte chan was being bullied the other day, I didn’t hesitate to run into a couple of boys, and I think I might have done it myself.
By the way, the prince was targeted because he had the highest chance of becoming a hero
The man whom the saint loved was chosen to become a hero and become so powerful that he could defeat the Demon King.
I heard that successive generations of saints have been intermarried with royalty for generations.
So the prince was targeted and I had to die. ……
“So that means …… I won’t have to die if I’m strong …….”
If I abandon the prince, the world may be destroyed by the Demon King.
In the end, it seemed like the best way was to become stronger.
Even if it’s impossible to defeat him, I can at least protect myself and the prince’s life.
If I could become that strong, I wouldn’t have to die.
“Yes! I’ll be strong after all! So that I don’t have to die, so that I can protect …… Charlotte-chan!”
I clenched my fists tightly and promised myself to do so.
The look on my face was that of a man who had already made up his mind.
And from that day on, my training began.
◇◆◇
I started out by building my physical strength and begging my parents for a wooden sword.
They confiscated my allowance for a few years because I had to pay for the wooden sword in advance.
Sad ……
Someday I want to be strong enough to defeat demons, earn money and buy myself a good sword.
So now I spend my days playing and training with Charlotte chan.
“Why are you taking so many lessons, Alan kun?”
“Because I want to get better.”
“Why?”
“Because I want to protect …… Charlotte chan.”
I couldn’t say that I didn’t want to die.
That is the willpower of a small man to a girl.
Charlotte-chan laughed a little at my words.
“Aaa, you laughed! That’s terrible…I’m being serious…”
“I’m sorry, I’m sorry. Alan kun, you are really cool.”
“…… really?”
“Yeah. I’m glad you’re going to protect me, Alan kun.”
After saying that, Charlotte-chan showed a smile that seemed even more fun than before.
Seeing that smile made me feel like the fatigue from swinging the wooden sword was relaxing from my tired arms and body.
If Charlotte chan is smiling, I can do my best again.
“Today, we can’t play because you have to take a lesson, right?”
“Yeah….Sorry about that.”
The bright expression on her face changed to one of disappointment.
Today was a special training day and I wasn’t planning on playing with Charlotte chan, but I happened to run into her while walking around town with my mom.
Charlotte chan’s mother is now chatting happily with my mother.
“No. Even if we couldn’t play, it was fun talking with Alan kun.”
“Let’s play together tomorrow.”
“Yes! promise!”
“Okay. Promise”
We parted with a promise to play together next time.
We continued to spend peaceful and happy days like this.
But…
Two years later.
I had been buried under the overwhelming amount of information that had suddenly poured into my head and had not noticed it.
It was the year we turned 7 years old.
A major event was about to occur that would greatly affect Charlotte chan’s destiny.
“What!? Charlotte was …… kidnapped ……?”
