After the Waves receded, Ye Uchiha and Naofumi Iwatani chatted about the little things that had happened over the past few days.
"What are your plans?"
"I'll keep traveling and adventuring with Raphtalia and Filo. Being a hero really isn't for me." Naofumi Iwatani stroked Filo's little head, looking relaxed.
Ultimately, from the moment he had been summoned through everything he had experienced since, Naofumi Iwatani had never felt that saving the world had anything to do with him. If not for the friends and acquaintances he had made here, and the fact that he could not return home without saving the world, he would have quit long ago.
Now that someone else was handling the task of saving the world, he was happy to take it easy. He might as well take this opportunity to keep traveling with Filo and Raphtalia, trading and practicing medicine, discovering the wonders of this world while lending a hand to those in need. That was the life he wanted.
Filo basked in the touch of her master's large hand. Beside her, Raphtalia puffed out her cheeks and glared at Filo with envy and jealousy.
Hearing Naofumi Iwatani's plans, Ye Uchiha fell silent for a moment before saying, "You could actually join Chaldea. You wouldn't have to take part in any wars. I could arrange for you to become the lord of a peaceful territory."
Naofumi Iwatani waved his hands and firmly refused. "No, no, no. I'm not cut out to be a local official. A leisurely life where I can sleep until I wake up naturally is what I want."
"Also, those three guys might be a little stupid and have somewhat twisted personalities, but they're actually decent at heart. They were our companions once, after all. I hope you can spare them,"
