The title of this chapter has been revised from "Hero's Mother" to "Hero's Drop".

On our way back to the capital, we decided to stop by Count Uranus, Leon's hometown.

The purpose was to meet with Leon and Monica's mother... the siblings' mother, explain the situation, and ask for Monica's permission to accompany me.

"I don't mind that, but... why are you guys here?"

"It's not big deal. Baskerville-san."

The one who said this in a ridiculing tone was a plain-looking girl with pigtails and glasses... Leon's party member, Melia Sue.

The carriage of the Marquis Baskerville not only carried my companions and Monica, but also Melia, Ruffie, and Ciel.

The carriage is a fairly spacious one, but it is very narrow when so many people are riding in it. Aeris and Nagisa were close to me from both sides, and with Urza on my lap, all of us were finally able to ride in the carriage.

As we were leaving Alteriore, we went to greet Leon's party.

It was also to visit Ciel, who had been discouraged by Leon's transformation into a monster.

We exchanged a few words with them lightly and intended to part from them, but before we knew it, we were told that they would accompany us to the royal capital.

"Hmm, it's a bit cramped, isn't it?"

"Umu, I can't help but stick close to each other..."

Aeris and Nagisa, who are on either side of me, seem to be in a strangely good mood, and they press their chests against my chest tightly. The softness was nice, but it was too hot.

On the other side of the seat, I was glared by Melia with an angry look on her face.

"If you guys are going home too, why don't you at least take another carriage? Why are you getting into our carriage?"

"Well, I'm sorry about that. But we couldn't get a carriage at short notice. I hope you'll forgive me for taking us along on this journey, and for being merciful in this world..."

Melia says, not feeling sorry in the least.

On the opposite seat, Melia, Ruffie, Ciel, and Monica are sitting shoulder to shoulder. They too look quite cramped.

"And I also wanted to apologize to Leon's mother. I'm sorry I couldn't protect his son."

"Yes... I have to tell my mother-in-law what happened..."

Ciel nodded darkly at Melia's words.

She had been in bed until this morning and had not eaten, and her complexion was pale.

Even so, she is probably trying to explain the situation out of a sense of responsibility, since she is acquainted with Leon's mother.

"...Well, I guess she will trust you more than if I explain the situation to her. It helps if you say so."

A bad-looking man like me coming to the house suddenly would frighten Leon's mother in a strange way.

It would be better if Ciel, who knows her and is close to her, explained it to her.

"Wouldn't it be nice if Ciel-oneechan were here? I would be happy if she could apologize with me for running away from home..."

"Monica... you should apologize for that yourself. I won't cover for you."

"Ah, it can't be..."

Monica's shoulders slumped and she held her head with her hands.

It seems that she relied on her childhood friend's older sister with a glimmer of hope, but it seems that she was brushed off..

Anyway, we headed for Count Uranus, though we were in a larger group than I had originally planned.

The carriage went on without any particular accident on the way, and we arrived at our destination a few days later.

"This is my home... Coraggio village!"

Monica shouts as soon as we arrives at the village.

She had been depressed because her mother had been angry with her, but in the past few days she seems to have changed her mind. Her voice is filled with desperate emotion.

"It's an empty village, but please relax! My house is over there!"

"Yes.... I know. Though I hate it."

A village with an easygoing atmosphere spreads out in front of me.

There were small houses, fields here and there, and sheep and cows were walking around.

The Coraggio village is a small village with less than a hundred inhabitants, but it had appeared several times in the game.

It is the place depicted in the beginning of the journey, in the opening scene... and is the tragic village that was eventually burned down by Zenon Baskerville in the depressing twist of 'DunBrave 2'.

The village is burned to the ground and all the inhabitants are killed, disguised as the work of bandits. The only exceptions are Leon's sister Monica and his mother.

The kidnapped girls are locked in a cellar, drugged and sexually trained by Zenon. As I am not a fan of depressing stories, this is a traumatizing village for me.

"So this is Coraggio... The village where the first hero was born and died?"

Aeris looks around the village and says with deep emotion.

"I heard that the tomb of the hero is here... but it hasn't become a tourist attraction, has it?"

"Yes, even though there is a grave, it is not a tourist attraction. They are in the same place as the graves of other villagers, and I think it would be boring to see them."

"Is that so? By the way... I heard that the legendary hero refused to accept the title because he didn't want to be treated specially. He even gave up his achievement of defeating the Demon King and spent his whole life in this village."

"Come on, come on, let's go to my house! I have to finish unpleasant things quickly!"

"What's so bad about seeing your mother?"

I sighed in exasperation.

She had been a brilliant girl in the dungeon, but she was just another child who was afraid of being scolded by her mother.

Anyway, we dragged Monica home.

A small house with a blue roof, a short distance from the other houses. This is the house where Leon and Monica were born and raised.

In front of the house a woman was carrying a broom and sweeping leaves from the trees in front of the house.

"M-mom..."

"Monica...!"

The woman notices her and shouts in surprise.

She had long blonde hair braided into pigtails, and although her clothes were simple and unadorned, even over her clothes I could see that she had an ample figure.

She looked so young that it was hard to believe that she was a mother of two children. Rather than a mature woman or an old lady, she looks more like a beautiful sister or a young wife.

"Monica! Monica!"

"Mom...!"

Her mother throws away her broomstick and runs up to her.

Monica, who had been reluctant to see her mother until a few minutes ago, also starts to run, as if overcome with emotion.

"An emotional reunion, isn't it..."

"Yes, it's a very nice scene."

Aeris, who lost her mother when she was a child, was in tears.

Monica and her mother embrace in front of us.

The mother and daughter, who look so much alike, hold each other tightly and are happy to be reunited, but...

"Haaa!"

"Aaah!?"

"Ah..."

The mother takes Monica's body in her arms... and with a great effort, she slams her daughter to the ground.

"I'm sorry, Monica. I have to punish the bad girl who runs away from home. Children who misbehave are punished."

"Uuu..."

It's a surprise bag drop.

The mother lifted up her long skirt and assumed a bridging position, delivering a wrestling move to Monica.

"I-I haven't seen this in a while. Auntie's 'Hero's Drop'..."

"'Hero's drop'...?"

I ask Ciel, whose face is drawn tight, and she explains to me with a trembling body.

"It is a technique that has been handed down in the Hero's family from generation to generation. The legendary hero who once sealed the Demon King... the woman who married him is said to have developed this technique in order to beat up the hero who had an affair with another woman. It's a great technique for killing heroes that's been passed down from generation to generation to women who marry into the Brave family..."

"...What's that, scary."

Such a technique did not even appear in the game.

In 'DunBrave2', she was supposed to be devoured by Zenon, but it seems that she is not a weak widow.

If I had been mistaken, I might have suffered the same fate.

No way, I must shake my head slowly, shaking off the unpleasant vision of the future.
