How a Realist Hero Rebuilt The Kingdom

Book 1: Chapter SS6



What They Wanted to Be

Liscia: Souma, was there something you wanted to become?

Souma: What’s this, all of a sudden?

Liscia: Well, we forced you to become the king for our own sakes, right? That’s why I thought I’d at least ask. Well?

Souma: Hmm... a public servant. Basically, I was aiming for a bureaucratic job. Though, if you ask if I actually wanted to become one, maybe not so much. I just wanted the stable employment... Ah! But when I was little, I wanted to become a nursery school teacher. You know, like what Tomoe’s mother does at the castle.

Liscia: Wow, I didn’t expect that. Do you like kids?

Souma: It just makes me smile seeing the things little kids will do and say, you know? Though teachers look after other people’s children, so I’m sure it would have been a hard job... What did you want to be when you were little, Liscia? Did you want to be a soldier instead of a princess?

Liscia: Me? When I was little, I wanted to be... a bride.

Souma: R-Right...

Souma & Liscia: ...W-Well, this got strangely embarrassing...
