Jobless Reincarnation: Sword, Magic Hat and Romance System

Chapter 19 She's a demon, and I'm your father.

Seeing this, Allen ignored Rudy and turned to look at the group of "children" who used their youth and so-called "justice" to mask their inner malice and bullying pleasure. He let out a heavy sigh.

He then subconsciously reached out and brushed his obedient hair off his forehead. The splashes of water from the blade cutting through the water had splattered on his hair, and given its stiff texture, it gave the impression of having hair gel on his hands.

The sharp angle made Rudy instinctively look away.

Allen had already walked up to the tallest chubby boy, who was only half a head shorter than Allen.

Although he did as Allen said, his eyes clearly showed dissatisfaction, especially after hearing that Allen was only nine years old.

"You seem to be dissatisfied?"

"You think you can bully us just because you have a knife!"

Allen smiled, lowered his head, and gently patted his face.

"You bully the weak because you have more people and are stronger, and she is powerless to do anything about it; now I'm bullying you because I have a weapon, so what are you going to do about it?"

Allen patted his face and chuckled as he leaned close to his ear, patiently and earnestly instructing him like a kind older brother.

"I am strong and you are weak, shouldn't that be a given?"

The chubby boy's face turned bright red.

"We're not bullying the weak! She's a demon!"

Allen scoffed.

"She's a demon, and I'm your father. Quick, call me father."

The chubby boy froze, he had never seen such a logical argument before, his expression twisted a few times, and then he burst into tears.

Did I make you cry?

The crying stopped abruptly.

"If I ever see you bullying her again, I'll twist your heads off and feed them to the monsters. Okay, enough crying, get out of here now."

The little brats ran off crying and peeing their pants.

Allen pursed his lips, turned his head to look at Hilfi, and prepared to examine the beautiful girl's face.

The beautiful girl's face and head were covered in mud, making it impossible to see her features. She was sitting on the ground, staring blankly at him.

Beside her, the trench that Allen had slashed with his battle aura was only half a body's distance away.

This time, Hilfi didn't get mud thrown at her by the children, but she got splattered all over Allen's face.

Allen opened his mouth helplessly and turned to look at Rudy.

Rudy also got splashed in the face. But he just stared blankly at the backs of those brats as they ran off into the distance.

Allen waved his hand in front of him and said somewhat awkwardly.

"Um, Rudy, why don't you use water magic to clean her up? And you can clean yourself up too."

Rudy turned his head, blinked, and looked at Allen in a daze.

".good."

Just then, Hilfi seemed to come to her senses. Suddenly, she jumped into the paddy field and, to the astonishment of Allen and Rudy, her small body waded through the water and laboriously dragged Allen's knife back. After getting ashore, she solemnly handed the knife back to Allen with both hands, but she didn't look at him. Instead, she looked down at her wet shoes.

The stray hairs on her forehead were still stained with mud and water, which dripped onto the ground with a pattering sound.

It trembled in rhythm with her pointed ears.

Allen blinked, sheathed the sword, and looked at Hilfi, who only reached his chest, and subconsciously touched her head.

The latter dodged, and Allen's hand missed.

His expression froze for a moment before he realized that he had been acting entirely on the resentment left over from his dream, without paying any attention to the system.

Oh no, there's no indication of the affection level yet. I hope I didn't scare the child.

After instinctively dodging, Hilfi noticed that Allen seemed a little flustered when she saw him standing there in a daze. She covered her head with her hands, glanced at Allen quickly, and then timidly and hesitantly moved her feet to stand in front of him.

He leaned his head close to Allen's hand, which was suspended in the air.

[Free Instant Quest - Gain Sylphie's Favor, Completed, Time Taken: 4:23:17. Evaluation: A champion of justice, I call you the King of the Kids!]

[The barrier magic slot has been unlocked.]

The smoke and dust, almost tangible, climbed onto the Dragon Saint Battle Qi embryonic core inside Allen's abdomen, emitting a buzzing sound that could only be heard in the soul. After a while, a new groove appeared next to the dark brown groove.

It has a white base color, like stalactites.

Allen blinked, snapping out of his daze, and realized that his hand was still on Sylphie's head. Half a moment had passed, and Sylphie had only been standing quietly in front of Allen, blinking her eyes and looking left and right at the ground, but she hadn't moved her hand away again.

Suddenly, a burning gaze fell on his face, and Allen turned his head in a daze.

Rudeus looked at Allen's hand with suspicion, then at Hilfi's face, and then at Allen's face.

And so on and on.

-

Hilfi's features were exquisite, and even though Allen was mentally prepared, he was still amazed by her beauty.

First of all, she has long eyelashes, a small but straight nose, a very smooth jawline, and long ears that twitch.

the most important is.

Her skin was so fair that you could almost see the slightly bluish veins beneath it in the sunlight.

Honestly, it's much better than anime.

Especially the reddish-brown pupils, which shimmered with a bright light.

Such pupils should not and cannot be in a state of listlessness or numbness.

The owner of the reddish-brown eyes blinked, looking down at the grass in front of her, her green hair flying in the air.

Tony, named Rudy, is styling her hair.

Rudy had already noticed that Hilfi didn't have the red demon eye on her forehead when he was washing her hair, and then confirmed that Allen was indeed playing the hero.

"Perhaps when Allen arrived in the village, he saw someone bullying this little boy, but why did he insist on dragging me along? Is it because he's afraid of losing his wages if he acts independently? So, using me as an excuse is easier to explain? But it's terrifying; he actually used a knife against a group of children. All I can say is..."

'Well done, Lord Allen! Um, it would have been even better if I weren't just a background character.'

"But it's okay, now I have another cute little boy as a companion. That means my strategy of attracting girls in reverse will be even more effective, and I'll have more handsome guys to choose from. Hmm... It's a pity he's a cute little boy and not a little girl, otherwise his timid and insecure demeanor would be perfect for my 'raising' needs, right? Ah, sorry, I gave myself away, I was just kidding. Wait, is he really a cute little boy?"

Rudy looked down and saw that Hilfi was wearing rough cloth trousers like a boy, unlike the other girls her age in the village who wore skirts.

"Could it be! That's what Allen was after! Damn, what a cunning old fox! No wonder Allen and Paul were always exchanging glances; so this is what you, with your thick eyebrows and big eyes, are actually into!"

Rudy silently swore in his mind, using the lewd tone typical of the NEETs from his previous life, but his hands were quick and decisive, and he had finished styling Sylphie's hair in no time.

Hilfi blinked and stood up.

The three were on a small hillside near the farmland, where there was only one tree, almost reaching the sky, with lush shade.

A gust of wind blew by, and the silhouettes of leaves on the ground swayed in the wind, with patches of light shimmering among them.

Hilfi curled up on her toes and murmured like a mosquito in her throat.

Thank you.

She glanced at Rudy, then slightly turned her gaze to look behind her.

Allen leaned lazily against the big tree, looking up at the canopy of shade.

A spot of light fell on the corner of his mouth, swaying along with his smile.

Gentler than the wind.
