The Hero Party’s Moms Are Obsessed With Me

Tap. Thud.

Tarhan, an elf who agilely leaped between tall trees.

He possessed the agility that was the pride of all elves.

“Hey, human.”

“Strong?”

“I’m not sure.”

He was carrying out the chief’s orders through elemental magic.

The order he received was to search for and chase away anyone who was acting strange in the forest, including approaching humans.

Although he confirmed that his comrade, the Lesser Wind Elemental Sylph, was a human, he was unsure of their strength.

‘They’re supposed to be an incredibly powerful being…’

He contemplated whether to request support from his comrade for a moment before remembering where he was and who he was.

This was the forest of the elves.

No matter how powerful a magician he might be, in a forest overflowing with potent magic and various spirits, the elves held sway over anyone.

‘Let’s go.’

“Okay.”

Upon reaching the location shown by the Sylph, he found humans and monsters locked in battle.

If there is something strange.

“Little kid?”

The human facing two wolf riders is not an adult, but a little kid.

The wolf riders are monsters that even elves avoid in direct confrontation because of their agility.

No matter how young the opponent is, even if it is a human.

Tarhan unconsciously took out two arrows from his quiver and strung them, closing one eye to aim.

He held his breath, waiting for the moment when the rope tightened.

And that moment arrived.

The goblin’s weapon hit the child’s shield.

He held his breath and tried to release the arrow but suddenly the goblin, who had been riding on the wolf’s back, fell to the ground with a thud.

“Huh?!”

Tarhan was surprised by the sudden disappearance of the target in front of him and pulled the arrow back again, adding strength to his hand.

The wolf rider fastened his belt, determined not to fall off despite the intense movement.

Did that guy suddenly fall from the wolf’s back?

And the child, as if targeting the fallen goblin, tried to approach him but dodged another goblin’s attack?

“That child… is suspicious.”

Although it changed from [an innocent child who must be saved] to [a suspicious child], it’s still a child.

What should I do? In that moment of thought, Tarhan dodged the attack of the spear goblin and caught his spear, then knocked the goblin down to the ground once again.

He thrust the torch he was holding into the goblin’s mouth.

Nonchalantly blocking the wolf’s attack with his shield, this time.

– Kkaegaeng!

“Is the wolf peeing?! What the hell!”

The child who drove away the wolves finished off the spear goblin.

He realized as he looked at the child, who had a wicked smile and was ready to face the remaining enemies.

That child is dangerous.

Although he’s not [the enemy of the World Tree] as the chieftain mentioned, he is a dangerous child.

He’s a kid who has lost his mind enough to torture goblins with fire alone in the deep forest on an ambitious night.

In battle… he’s a mad child.

If it’s an ordinary child, I can show my strength, scare them, and chase them away.

“Will that work on this child…?”

What should I do if they come at me after seeing my strength?

“There seems to be no way.”

No matter how much I think, I can’t seem to find an answer, so for now, I decided to show my strength.

I took out another arrow from the quiver and loaded three arrows onto the bow.

Aiming at the monster that stopped because of the child.

Swish!

Phew! Poof!

Poof!

– Kyreck!!

– Smash!

Dealing with three monsters at once.

Now I just need to reveal myself and chase away the child.

“Oh, where?!”

Just as I shot the arrow, a human woman emerged from a place where no sign of her presence was felt and pointed her sword directly at me.

“Who are you! Reveal your identity!”

She yelled and threw a magic spell towards me.

Although the gaze and aura felt sharp and piercing,

Tarhan’s mind was elsewhere.

“A concealment spell that not even Sylph could detect?”

Concealment with an unknown identity.

Not just hiding in the bushes, but completely concealing her appearance, scent, and even body temperature and heartbeat.

This is not something an ordinary human can do.

It is absolutely the power of a high-level magician.

It was bewildering, but

I hated myself for not calling for backup.

This is the land of the elves.

So, I put on the sharpest mask possible and confronted the child and the woman.

“Human. What are you doing here?”

While speaking forcefully, he rolled his eyes around, checking if there were any other humans nearby.

Although he couldn’t grasp Tarhan’s emotions, he didn’t feel anything for now.

“I was wandering the forest in search of a dungeon.”

“Sylph, is that right?”

[I don’t think it’s a lie.]

“Thank you. Are there no other humans around?”

[I don’t sense any.]

“I see…”

“A dungeon… It doesn’t seem like a lie.”

He let out a shallow sigh that the opponent couldn’t see, releasing his hostile stance.

He might be able to win by fighting from the start.

“Sylph, please check the girl’s condition. Come back immediately if it’s dangerous.”

[Understood.]

When Tarhan asked Sylph for a favor, a human woman opened her mouth.

“Elf! I have something I want to ask you!”

“I’m sorry, but contact with humans is prohibited by the Chieftain’s order. Both of you should stop wandering in the forest. This is not a request, but a warning.”

Leaving a strong impression as much as possible, Tarhan turned around.

“Run away! Help! Assistance!”

He quickly retreated.

After running for about five minutes, he felt a familiar energy in the distance.

Standing on a large branch, he gasped for breath, and his comrade’s sentinel climbed up the opposite branch.

“Tarhan, what’s going on?”

“Cough… cough… Kergal… right now… support…”

“Support? Is it an attack? Wait, where is Sylph? Did you come alone?”

No Sylph?

What does that mean?

When an elf reaches adulthood, they form a contract with a spirit during their coming-of-age ceremony.

That spirit is a soul companion that accompanies the elf until they grow old and die, as long as there are no major problems.

No Sylph.

Playing a prank that could receive the Curse of the World Tree… Huh?

Tarhan, who looked around at his colleague’s words.

“Hey, Silph?! Where are you?!”

He confirmed that the spirit was not by his side.

“What is this?”

A translucent light green object floating above my head suddenly.

It circled around me like a ghost and then came closer to my face.

“?!”

I unintentionally suppressed a scream and stepped back, but the unidentified creature approached faster than I could retreat.

I looked at Elly and Olivia with pleading eyes.

“That…?”

“Oh my goodness… a child…”

“Well, just wait for now.”

The two people who had fallen to the ground, looking astonished, were staring at me with curious eyes.

“Damn it, Regatta!! Are you trying to convince them with something only you know again?!”

Damn it!

It’s not that I’m scared of ghosts, but it’s creepy to approach so openly like this!!

I swung my shield towards the approaching unidentified creature.

Swish~

“Is it really a ghost?!”

The light green object easily passed through the shield.

Eventually, that object touched my head.

“…”

Huh?

Contrary to my concerns, my mind felt refreshed.

And then.

“Hello.”

…?!

A cold robotic voice of a young girl suddenly came through.

“I’m Silph. What’s your name?”

The vigilance gradually eased with the familiar voice.

“It’s Diam.”

“Oh, it’s Diam. Nice to meet you.”

“Can you hear my voice?”

“Yes.”

“It’s amazing.”

Just thinking about it, but we can communicate.

By the way, Sylph?

“Are you a spirit by any chance?”

“Yes, I am the spirit of the wind.”

“But why are you here?”

“I don’t know either.”

…?

As I tilted my head, Largatta finally approached.

“Congratulations, Diam. You’ve opened someone’s heart without permission again? And it’s the heart of the spirit of the wind.”

“…?”

What is she talking about?

Opened someone’s heart…?!

Again?!

The heart?!

Opened?!

My head started to spin as I listened to Largatta’s words.

Could it be?!

Soldiers who took care of me even though I was of no use.

The relief children who followed me suspiciously.

Elli and Olivia, who expressed an unusual fondness towards me.

And Largatta, who treated me differently, as if flipping the back of her hand, just a few days after we met.

The reason there were so many people who were unusually friendly towards me!

“Did you even open people’s hearts?!”

I found out for the first time.

I thought I knew how to treat a child who worked so hard.

I thought I was repaying their kindness.

But that wasn’t it.

The tower’s owner, Lageta, said so.

She opened other people’s hearts without permission. And she could interfere with a person’s mental state, not just open and close their heart, no matter how well she used it. She thought it would only work on locks or bladders.

Do other people liking me?

Yes.

It’s the most important ability for humans as they live.

It’s really great, but…

“This is an incredibly dangerous ability!”

When I look at Elly, Olivia, and Lageta, the intensity of their feelings goes beyond friendship to the level of love.

If I inadvertently used this on men without knowing it?

I even involuntarily tensed my buttocks, and it might have already been used.

Because it’s a usage I wasn’t aware of.

“I should be careful from now on…”

By the way, how did my heart connect with theirs?

I need physical contact to use my ability.

Even if they lived together, touched and were touched by each other.

What about Sylph?

As I pondered various questions, the vaguely greenish unidentified creature gradually transformed into a human shape.

Flap~

A girl with butterfly wings perched on my shoulder.

“I touched him, too.”

“When?!”

“A little while ago, my friend Tarhan asked me to find out who Sylph really is. I touched him then.”

“…”

Suddenly becoming a colleague due to an unexpected supply, the wind spirit Sylph.

[Hello.]

“Oh my! How adorable~ It’s my first time seeing a spirit~”

“This is my first time seeing a physical being as well.”

Apparently bored with the excessive attention, the spirit perched on my shoulder and peered into the bowl.

It felt as if a gentle breeze was tickling me.

“Stop it, it’s cold.”

[Just a little bit more. I want to do more.]

They say it feels chilly when the winter night wind brushes against your cheeks.

“Give me a lot more when spring or summer comes.”

[Fine.]

The sprite responded with a nonchalant tone and fluttered its wings, settling on top of my head.

Since its very existence was the wind itself, my hair was a mess in real-time, but it was just hair, so who cared?

“If you’re a spirit of the wind…”

As the sprite played with my hair, Lageta, with a dimension-cutting gesture, pulled out something from within.

“Diam, try feeding this to the sprite.”

When Lageta handed me the stone, I felt a similar breeze-like sensation as with the sprite.

“?”

“It’s a wind mana stone. Something good will happen if you feed it to that little one.”

I see.

Without much thought, I gave the stone I received to the sprite, saying that something good is good.

[Can I have it even if I receive it?]

This brat has manners.

I chuckled and nodded, and the corners of the stoic sprite’s mouth slightly lifted as it turned around Lageta.

[Thank you, grandma.]

“Ha, grandma?!”

“Pff!”

“She’s even the same age as Ellie, why would you tease her about her age?”

“Grr! I-I’m sorry, ma’am… Hmph! Grandma-hic!”

“Diam! Bring that back! And Ellie! Did you think you wouldn’t age?! Are these things playing around?!”

Ignoring the chaotic commotion behind, I handed the stone to the sprite, its small hands meeting the stone.
