Chapter 206: Zect's Side, Responsibility

Zect's POV

"It was right under our noses all along, huh?" I said.

"Yeah... but I'm sure Lida will be fine with this... it's her true calling," said Maria.

"Definitely, she's really suited for it and seems to enjoy it," said Mel with agreement.

Since then, Lida and I have experienced several different jobs together.

And she ended up as a 'nanny (daycare workers)'.

Come to think of it, Lida liked to play a lot and was popular with the kids.

This is truly her calling.

'Play around with children and protect them from danger.'

Lida, the sword saint, can easily protect children by using his ability to sense danger...and she's happy to play with them since he enjoys it so much.

Well, well... this is definitely the right job for her.

"Zect..." called Luna.

"Hey, Luna, you wanna play too? You can go ahead," I ask.

"Yeah... I'll go now," replied Luna.

Today, Marin is hanging out with my mom and the others.

So, it's just Maria, Lida, Mel, and Luna in this place.

"Ahaha, it's funny, I used to think of Ceres as 'motherly', but Zect, you're like a mother too," Maria said, laughing.

"Do you really think so? I wonder why he's surrounded by so many men with girl power." Mel asked.

"Maria, Mel... it's because you two are not very feminine. I and Ceres are plenty manly, but you two can't do anything, so we end up 'doing' it. I don't mind it, but you owe Ceres an apology," I replied.

"But you've changed so much, the old Zect would have been angry not at Ceres, but at himself..." Maria added.

"Yeah, yeah, I wouldn't say apologize to Ceres! Besides, you've taken good care of Lida, haven't you?" Mel asked.

"I didn't think I could do so much... But I'm glad she finally got a job, and I'm sure Maria will feel better knowing that the church is looking out for her in the day care center," I replied.

Indeed, I... was that kind of person.

Looking back, I didn't cross that line because I'm a Hero.

Still, I did... do that.

And the reason why I did those things was because of what I heard from Ceres before...

A woman who's been touched by another man.

That would certainly dampen any chance of a marriage...

So, I'll have to take responsibility.

After all, my best friend Ceres is taking full responsibility.

"I understand. If both of you say it's okay with me, I'll take responsibility! But are you sure you want me... hey!" I said, determined to make things right.

"Lidaaaaa! Zect's going to take responsibility!" Maria exclaimed, excitedly.

"Our future husband! Our future husband!" Mel also exclaimed.

Then, Lida came running.

At this, her eyes widened with hope and anticipation, "Is it true... you'll make me your wife? Then I don't have to work anymore..."

Zect chuckled nervously, "I'll take responsibility... but we have to talk about this with Marin too, so please wait a while... and Lida, even after we're married, you still have to work."

""Zect... you're good"" Mel and Maria exchanged a look and said in unison.

"No... way" Lida stammered.

“Of course (sweat)”

When I thought about it carefully... I couldn't just run away after going that far.

I used to think "I'm not the bad guy."

but when it comes to men and women, I certainly did... things.

Mom used to say with a smile, 'I bet you're trying to be like Ceres-kun, aren't you?' But I never imagined... even she wouldn't have guessed this.
