The Hero Party’s Moms Are Obsessed With Me

In that moment,

Flash!

“Ah! What is this again!!!”

A sharp light pierced their eyes as if a flash grenade had gone off.

Tap.

Thud.

Two elves swiftly traversed the trees.

“Tarrhan! Slow down! It’s nighttime! You might fall! Besides, we need backup!”

Kergal, a member of the elven guards following from behind, shouted.

Just a moment ago, Tarrhan and Sylph were together.

But ever since they encountered that strange little child.

And then the human woman who seemed to be the enemy of that child.

“Damn those humans!! How dare they touch a Sylph!! Just wait a moment! I’m coming now!!”

Tarrhan’s ears, blazing with the fuel of anger and reason, did not hear Kergal’s words.

“This is crazy! Sylph!”

[Yes.]

“I will follow Tarrhan. You go back to the village and call for reinforcements.”

[Understood.]

Only after another Sylph flew in the opposite direction did Kergal increase his speed and catch up to Tarrhan’s side.

“Tarrhan! Who are they?”

“They’re humans! Two of them!”

“Humans? We need backup for just humans?”

“One of them is a kid, but they have some strange ability!

The other is a high-level mage that even Sylphs couldn’t detect! And it seems like they know swordsmanship too!”

“R-really?! Then even if we saw them, we wouldn’t stand a chance!”

Sylphs are elemental spirits of the wind.

If a Sylph, who can even detect subtle fluctuations, couldn’t find a mage who could also wield a sword?

At least a high-ranking magic swordsmaster, above Level 5.

No matter how agile the elves are and how skillfully they handle arrows from birth, the level of the outer guard is at 5th place.

“My companion has been captured!!”

“…I don’t know! What else can we do besides dying if we try? Tarhan! Let’s go!”

“Thank you, Kergal!! I will definitely repay this favor!”

“You better repay it, you brat! If you come back alive!!”

Tarhan landed on a large branch without stopping and raised his fist.

Kergal also landed on a neighboring tree in sync with the signal to stop.

“The little one must be that kid… but who is the magician?”

Tarhan had said there were only two of them, but Kergal’s eyes saw four humans.

The child noticed at once because they were short, but it was difficult to figure out which of the three women it was due to their similar atmospheres.

To survey the situation, they infused magic into their eyes to enhance their vision.

Then, unexpectedly, Kergal discovered a presence from the kid’s head.

“That… is a sylph?”

Not only was their true form revealed, but they were also fluttering their wings and swaying their legs.

It seemed like they were there by their own will, not forcefully kidnapped.

“Moreover, they’re in their adult form?”

Not the appearance of a child, but that of an adult.

It was a sylph who had grown by absorbing natural magic.

“Hey, Tarhan. Is that sylph real?”

Elementals were nature’s beings with whom it was difficult to establish a close relationship.

While growth was possible with just a mana stone, forming that level of bond and interaction usually required a contract of at least five to ten years.

From an ordinary person’s perspective, that sylph was not Tarhan’s elemental but the child’s elemental.

Thunk! The sound of teeth clenching so tightly it could be heard.

Intense gazes that made blood vessels burst.

Trembling fists and erratic breathing.

Tarhan was not in his right mind.

“How dare you… touch my sylph!!! I will kill you all!!!”

In the end, Tarhan, who had lost his rationality, drew two daggers hanging from his waist and stabbed the tree.

“Tarhan!! Damn it!!”

Kergal gritted his teeth and quickly drew an arrow from his quiver, ready to retaliate.

“Whom should I target?! The kid? Or one of the human women?”

A confused woman, who appeared to be a knight, drew her sword and blocked Tarhan.

The best target for protecting her comrades.

“I don’t know!”

The woman drew her sword.

As soon as she let go, the arrow flew faster than Tarhan, who had already departed.

Clang!

The knight lightly deflected the arrow with her sword.

She hoped for even a slight change in posture, so that Tarhan’s attack could land.

Bang!

“She reacted to that?!”

The knight perfectly blocked Tarhan’s attack as if she could see every trajectory.

***

I’ve never been hit by a flash grenade, but isn’t this similar? I tightly closed my eyes in the baptism of light.

“?!”

“Ah!”

“My eyes!! Damn it!”

Although it was a mixture of coldness and numbness.

“Just making a fuss over a little light.”

Rageta’s calm voice brought my vision back quickly.

“T-Thank you, Rageta.”

“…”

“Sure.”

“Hey! Rageta! Why are you still the same?!!”

“Hmph. Grandma’s hearing is not that good, didn’t you know?”

“I didn’t mean it like that! I’m sorry! I’m really sorry!”

When Ellie’s gaze returned, everyone’s eyes turned to the top of my head.

I also looked up, and the small Sylph, who had appeared to be around the same age as me until just now.

[Hehe~ Hello, Diarm~]

“Huh… is it Sylph?”

“Yeah! I grew up after consuming the power of the stone Grandma gave me!”

“That, that… went well.”

He had grown to be as honest as a rookie college student in his emotions.

Though small in stature, he had a relatively ample chest and a slender waist. Well-shaped legs.

And, with each twirl, the sky-blue, billowy dress swayed enchantingly.

And then.

“…?”

“Hmm. The spirit is going commando.”

With the unexpected arrival of someone so unapologetically bare, I found myself inexplicably dumbstruck.

“Hey, don’t stare at someone else’s panties!”

“Master!”

“Diam! Look at my panties!”

The surroundings grew noisy.

The adult fairies, with mischief in their eyes, began singing merrily and swaying their legs above my head.

I couldn’t see their actions clearly, but the two of them watched the spirit in front of them with amazement.

“The spirit is really cute!”

“Despite the cute appearance, it’s quite powerful. Even if it looks like that, it represents one of the elements.”

“Really? Impressive. Hello, spirit~ I’m Olivia, Diam’s mother~”

Thanks to them, I got a front-row view of Ellie and Olivia’s swaying chests, but as I felt the discomfort, I took a step back and cleared my throat.

“Well then, it’s getting late, so shall we return for today? Or should we look for a dungeon…”

Ellie was about to clear her throat and adjust our plans when a sharp cry cut through the air.

“I’ll kill you!!!”

Responding to the sharp scream, as fast as light, a sword was drawn in a direction.

When I turned my head to the side, just as the elf had warned us a while ago, another elf with reddened eyes, as if intoxicated, was flying towards us.

Hidden in the shadow of that elf, an arrow was coming our way.

If it were me, I definitely couldn’t have stopped it, but our Lord Elune…

Clang!

He effortlessly deflected the first arrow that arrived.

Kakang!

He perfectly blocked the elf’s dagger attack.

She kicked the elf and pulled a round magical object out of her back pocket, then threw it up into the sky.

Glint! The magical object shone and revealed the hiding elf on the tree.

“Elf. What are you up to?”

This is clearly the territory of the elves.

Ellie had intended to back away after hearing their warning and solve the situation through dialogue, rather than attacking them recklessly.

“Give me my sprite! My sprite!!!”

The opponent seemed to have no intention of doing so.

She sighed and positioned herself properly.

“Levi, I’ll leave the two of them to you.”

“Aren’t you too old for this, grandma?”

“Your heart may be big, but your intestines are narrow.”

“Hmph. Fine. Since my heart is big and my intestines are wide, I’ll take care of the two of them!”

With that, Ellie stomped on the ground.

“Die! Die!!!”

The elf lost her composure and blindly swung her dagger.

“Calm down, elf!”

Ellie focused on defense and tried to resolve the situation through dialogue.

While watching the fight between the two, the spryte that had been sitting on top of my head flapped its wings and flew around me.

“Oh? It’s Tarhan~”

“Tarhan? Someone I know… No, an elf I know?”

“I’m your contractor! Or more precisely, your former contractor!”

“Former… contractor?”

“Yeah! Since I ended the contract the moment I met Diam, I became the former contractor~”

“Uh… Um… So…”

The insane elf and the spryte next to me, giggling away, turned out to be family.

However, the spryte, who had approached me at the request of that elf, had opened my heart and cancelled the contract.

Furthermore, it had made a contract with me on its own accord.

The elf who had come worriedly found the spryte next to me, laughing.

In other words.

I’m the bad guy, aren’t I?!

My mind turned completely white at the unexpected NTL.

“Hey, Silf, what do you think?”

[What?]

“That friend… do you think there’s no chance of him returning to Tarhan?”

Elementals are extremely rare beings that even ordinary humans would have a hard time encountering in their lifetime.

Furthermore, humans who make contracts with such elementals are few and far between.

Having this opportunity is fortunate, to say the least.

But even so, going as far as to ruin someone else’s family… isn’t that a bit much?

I was actually considering letting Silf go back if he wanted to.

[No!]

“Oh, really?”

What’s a second.

My laughter came involuntarily at Silf’s response, which came as if he barely waited 0.1 seconds.

I apologize, Tarhan the Elf.

I will take good care of this friend…

Now that I’ve sorted out my relationship with Silf, it’s time to calm down this elf.

While thinking about what to do, Silf, who was sitting on top of my head, flapped his wings.

In that moment, a strong gust of wind swept through.

Whoosh!

Poof!

“?!”

A momentary distraction caused me to miss the arrow that flew by my head.

If it weren’t for the wind, it would have pierced through my defenseless head.

As I looked at the arrow stuck in the ground, Olivia, who reacted later than me, came rushing towards me in surprise.

“Are you okay, dear?! Lady Rageta!”

Why didn’t she protect the child?! Her reproachful gaze was evident.

“Why? I promised to help Diem before he died. Should I be overly protective now?”

“Wha, does that mean the child wasn’t in danger just now?!”

“Of course not. With a high-level wind elemental by our side, what could be dangerous? On the contrary.”

Rageta, who had been speaking calmly, looked up and smiled.

“Shouldn’t we be worried about the elf over there?”

“Huh? What…”

When Olivia didn’t understand Rageta’s words, an arrow that had been stuck in the ground seemed to magically float up.

[Attacking Dim! Are you crazy?!]

Silph screamed and the arrow flew at a fast speed.

Crack!

It shattered the tree branch that the elf was standing on.

The speed was so fast that even the agile elf couldn’t react.

“Oh, no!”

As the tree branch collapsed, the elf hurriedly fled to the next branch.

But our arrows did not stop.

Every time the elf ran, we broke the branch.

And again when the elf ran, we broke the branch.

After about ten repetitions, the exhausted elf, thinking that the branches were not safe, landed with a tumble behind Tarhan, gasping for breath.

Only then did the arrows stop.

“Tarhan! These guys are dangerous! We have to run away!!”

“Gasp… Gasp… But… it’s an advanced spirit, not your elf!!”

“That’s not true… gasp… I can tell… it’s an elf… my elf!!”

Yes, it’s your elf.

If there’s a problem.

“Not anymore.”
