I, a Holy-Attributed Healer, Am Surrounded by Beautiful, Big-Breasted Women of the Female Knight Brigade - Chapter 0 - Prologue - Parting With My Childhood Friends

Chapter 0 – Prologue – Parting With My Childhood Friends

After finishing treating my two childhood friends, the magician Cynthia spoke.

“I’ve decided to get married.”

I thought of her, with her dull yellow hair trimmed to her shoulders, as a little sister who had grown into a lovely woman.

When Cynthia announced her marriage, the thought that crossed my mind was…

Ah…this is another world.

It’s not like I was summoned here or got sucked into a game world.

And I certainly wasn’t reincarnated as a child and endowed with cheat abilities.

The moment I heard Cynthia’s marriage announcement, I realized that this was another world.

I learned that I once had a past life, and that I have memories of that time.

That was probably because I had begun to see Cynthia as a woman, and was wondering whether to confess my feelings to her.

In my previous life, I was a timid guy who watched his childhood friend get married without saying anything.

Now I’m a healer who can use holy magic, and I also play the role of a thief in our adventurer party. I’m a 25-year-old young man named Salt.

My adventurer companions are Cynthia, the magician, and Asha, the swordsman, both my childhood friends.

The three of us have been living together ever since our hometown was attacked by monsters.

We became adventurers to survive, and have somehow made it to this day, having made many connections.

Cynthia and Asha are now twenty years old and have become fine young women.

Today marks the end of my role as their guardian.

With Cynthia’s marriage announcement, our adventurer party will disband.

“I’ve been scouted by the knights too! Isn’t that amazing?!”

Asha still has a childish side to her, as she boasts with a smile and her hair swaying energetically in a ponytail.

When we became adventurers, Asha, who showed talent with a sword during the aptitude test, helped us immensely.

“Yeah, that’s amazing. You’ve secured a stable job. Well done!”

“Ehehe, it’s because Salt-nii taught me so much~”

I saw Cynthia as both a younger sister and a woman. Asha, on the other hand, I thought of as an adorable real sister.

“Salt-niisan, thank you so much for everything.”

Cynthia is an excellent magician.

There were countless times when her magic saved our lives.

She’s a petite, cute woman, and her distinctive dimples appear when she laughs.

“What are you saying? We’re like siblings, aren’t we? You two have grown into fine adults and are walking your own paths. I can’t be happier.”

To act a little tough and suppress my feelings, I stroked my two younger sisters’ heads.

I divided the money we earned as adventurers, giving a larger share to Cynthia and Asha.

Until today, I’ve been in charge of managing them as the leader, but from now on, we will have to do things on our own.

“Isn’t this too much?”

“Consider it part of the wedding gift. I don’t have the luxury to give you anything more.”

“Salt-niisan, thank you.”

Cynthia bowed deeply.

Asha, who isn’t good with numbers, didn’t seem to realize that she had received a larger share.

“What are you going to do now, Salt-nii?”

“Me? Hmm, I think I’ll leave the Capital and go to the Earldom of Corias.”

“The Earldom of Corias?”

“Yeah, I have a strong affinity for the Holy attribute. I heard rumors that miasma is spreading over there. Plus, healing skills are more appreciated in the frontier areas.”

I’ve actually been to the Earldom of Corias a few times as an adventurer.

During those times, I was able to make money just by using healing magic.

The Holy attribute not only grants purifying abilities but also healing talents, making my role as a healer a gift from the gods.

“I see, it’s going to be lonely.”

Asha’s eyes teared up a little.

Until now, the three of us have always supported each other.

But starting tomorrow, we will be going our separate ways.

“Yeah. Today’s my treat. Eat as much as you want.”

“Really?! Even sweets?”

“Yeah, eat as many sweets as you want. We’re celebrating your new beginnings!”

“Yay!!!”

“Fufu, thank you. I won’t hold back then, Salt-niisan.”

These girls love sweets, so they started happily ordering them.

This would be our last meal together as adventurers.

“Don’t hold back. Both of my sisters are setting off at the same time. It’s a bit overwhelming but also refreshing!”

“Yeaahh! But still…”

Cynthia’s face is also filled with loneliness.

“It’s only because of you, Salt-niisan, that we were able to make it this far. I’m truly grateful for all your encouragement, courage, and support.”

I guess this must be what a father feels like when giving his daughter away in marriage.

Although I have feelings for her as a woman, I also see her as my little sister.

I realized that if she’s going to be happy, it doesn’t have to be me.

“Yes, our bond is eternal. If you’re ever in trouble, come talk to me anytime.”

“Yes, Salt-niisan!”

Asha stuffed her mouth full of the celebratory meal.

Cynthia is a little more refined, but just like Asha, she has a sweet tooth.

Today is going to be the last day of our party.

“Hey, we made a good team, didn’t we?”

“Of course! Without Salt-nii, my body would be too battered to fight anymore.”

“That’s right. Salt-niisan often removed poison and curses from me too.”

“Haha, you two are exaggerating. I wasn’t asking for praise, I only asked because I thought the three of us were the best trio. I’ve seen Asha’s swordsmanship cut down monsters so many times! And Cynthia’s magic has saved our lives more times than I can count.”

We talked about our past accomplishments and memories.

Everyone faces farewells someday.

It just so happens that today is the day for us.

“Once again, Salt-niisan.”

“Salt-nii.”

The two exchanged glances and coordinated their breaths.

“Thank you very much!”

Like that, us three childhood friends announced our disband as adventurers to walk our own different paths.

♢

I informed the adventurer’s guild that we were disbanding because of Cynthia’s marriage.

Millia works as a receptionist in the Capital, and she’s one of the most beautiful women in the adventurer’s guild. She has a pair of extremely big twin mountains on her chest that is hard to ignore.

That Millia is eagerly asking me where I’m going.

“Which town are you planning to go to next?”

“I’m thinking of heading to the Earl’s territory in the frontier.”

“I see! I understand.”

I don’t know what she meant by her words, but I left the Capital and headed for the Earl’s territory.

They say that “A journey is best shared and compassion is the way of the world,” but traveling alone isn’t so bad. Monsters do appear, but if you prepare repellent items, there shouldn’t be any problems.

And if you get tired, you can rest in a town along the way.

“Ahh, it’s lonely, but I guess I’ll just have to enjoy being alone.”

While walking with this feeling, I walked for about three days before I saw something troublesome.

Just as I entered the Corias territory, I saw a carriage under attack by monsters.

What’s more, the monsters attacking them were necromancers, which must have been caused by the increasing amount of miasma.

“Compassion is the way of the world, huh!!”

Deciding to help, I readied myself.

T/N: I’ve decided to pick up another fantasy novel. This will focus more on the romance/harem with of course, pretty, cute, busty ladies. This is just the prologue, now we’re entering the main story.

I’ve translated this author’s previous work before, and I can guarantee the author will do the girls’ justice, muehehe.

I hope you’d like this novel. There will be more chapters to come~
