Rise of the Bow Heroine

The next morning, I woke up from a knock on the door, carefully moving Raphtalia so as not to wake her up, I still sleepy headed to the door.

Opening it, I was met by several people in armor, and I already thought they wanted to attack me, until the man who was at the head of the knights handed me an envelope and said in a trembling voice.

"The king… is holding a banquet tonight, and invites you." - he said and quickly ran away.

I stood at the front door for a while trying to figure out why the king would invite me? Even if I am a heroine, I still killed many of his guards, he should be afraid of me, and not invite me to a banquet, where there will be a lot of bastards from noble houses.

Having closed the door, I was about to go to bed, when I saw that Raphtalia got up and sleepily rubbed her eyes.

"Sis, who was that?" - she asked yawning.

"Well, we were invited to a banquet." - I saw how pale she was and couldn't laugh.

"Don't be afraid, I won't make you wear a dress, not when the King is in power, and I don't want the bastards from noble houses to look at you with lustful eyes." - I told her, to which she simply sighed.

"Okay, let's go sleep a little more." - I said to her, taking her hand, and we lay down on the bed again, where Raphtalia settled comfortably in my arms.

"Sister?" - I heard Raphtalia's voice

"Hm?" - I mumbled, asking her.

"Will you also have to get married someday?" - Raphtalia asked me in a sad tone.

"Huh? Why are you asking?" - I was surprised by her question.

"Well, noble families get married all the time, and heroes are on the same level or even higher than noble ladies. When this is all over, you should officially be given titles!" she said.

I didn't know what to tell her, since she wasn't entirely right. But I don't think I'll be given any noble title because of my actions. Although they might do it to tie me down as a weirdo because of my strength. But I don't think I'll let them!

"Don't worry, I'm not going to marry anyone!" I told her, making her sigh in relief.

"I wouldn't know what I'd do if you married some guy!" my sister said.

I laughed at her actions.

"It's not the guys you need to worry about! I'm not interested in them, if I ever get married, it'll be to a girl! I'm a lesbian!" I told her, smiling.

She was shocked by this news, but I thought she noticed how I sometimes openly stared at beautiful girls, or she heard a rumor about my orientation. I told her straight back then in the king's castle! Apparently she didn't know anything about it!

"Well then, when you find yourself a wife, first I have to check her, is she worthy of you!" she said.

I laughed and answered!

"Yes, yes, and now sleep," I said, covering her with a blanket.

The next time we woke up for lunch, had a quick breakfast, well, it was a late breakfast.

We left the hotel at seven o'clock in the evening and headed to the castle, not bothering to put on special clothes for a noble banquet, because we didn't care!

Having reached the castle, we showed the invitation to the guard, after which we were taken to the place of the banquet.

When we entered, all the people were dressed in different expensive suits and dresses, but I didn't care about them. A couple of guys who noticed me flashed eyes filled with lust, but they didn't dare to approach me because they were afraid of me.

I didn't pay attention to those around me and just went to the table with snacks, Raphtalia was with me as always, and Naofumi decided to sit on the windowsill by the window.

We actually didn't come here just for the food, we were also promised a reward in the invitation, which we would gladly accept, because Raphtalia has been eating a lot lately, and it costs a lot of money.

I could have limited her in what she eats, but I was an absolute realist! I loved my sister very much. This tanuki girl reminds me of my old sister! Is there a chance to see her again? I hope so!

By and large, the banquet was a complete bummer! It was boring here and they usually discussed who would marry whom, which faction they would vote for, and so on.

This pedophile with his red-haired slut was surrounded by girls in elegant dresses.

Speaking of girls, some of them looked at me blushing, and clearly sent some hints in my direction.

Which got me thinking! Shouldn't they want to marry a man and have children? Especially in a time where same-sex relationships are accepted! They can't touch me because of my strength, and the fact that I'm a heroine from another world. But they are locals of this world, they can be branded or something. But I think the answer to this question is easy to get! Their family entered into an arranged marriage that they didn't want, I could be a lifeline for them if they seduced me. But what would they do next? Continue playing my "wife"? Because knowing myself, I would take such a lie badly and would kill such a person!

Sigh.

You just need to relax and eat your fill!

Raphtalia was already going wild eating, not caring about the etiquette that we taught her, well, I told her not to do that at a banquet hosted by the king.

"Raphtali, grab a plate of food." I said and headed towards the sullen guy.

"Hey, why are you so sad? Don't eat!" I said, walking up to him and handing him the plate that the tanuki girl had brought.

"I don't want any!" the guy said.

"Oh, come on! Relax, go eat, maybe you'll pick up some girl who'll be happy to meet the hero!" I said smiling at him.

And finally got a smile from him.

"See, it's not that hard to smile, really?" I said, happy that I was able to soften his sullenness a little.

Until we were interrupted and a gauntlet was thrown at Naofumi. I wanted to break loose and smear the blond again, but Naofumi put his hand on my shoulder.

If it had been some other guy, I would have killed him long ago, but I knew that Naofumi didn't want anything bad.

"This is a duel!" said the blond pedophile, behind whom stood the red-haired slut.

"I know everything, your companion Raphtalia is a slave, I know that you bought her from a slave trader!" said the pedophile.

I laughed, because he didn't know that by and large Raphtalia is my companion and sister, and no longer a slave.

Naofumi looked at him and answered.

"So what!" I knew that he wanted to play a game, I hope he will become a good actor!

"Oh you!"

"Yes, Raphtalia is a slave, so what?" Naofumi said, still in the same tone of incomprehension.

"Remember, one people should not enslave another!" the blond still did not give up.

"What are you talking about? I hope you know that slavery is not prohibited in this world!" the shield hero replied.

"But you and I are heroes!" is he stupid, has he forgotten about me already? Or did my blows knock his brains out?

In the end, the blond wanted to provoke Naofumi into a duel, but he did not agree and simply began to leave.

"For a famous hero to hold a non-human in his arms? It seems he really is a criminal who conspired with a demon who pretends to be a hero." I heard the king's voice, and began to laugh.

Seriously? A demon? What kind of stereotypes are these? If you have horns, it doesn't mean you're a demon, different races and subspecies have horns, and lumping them all together is low.

But something's wrong here! The king is acting boldly, even though he's seen my strength.

That's when a circle formed under me and erected a barrier

"This is the barrier that will hold you, demon spawn!" the king said.

I just looked at him with disdain as if he were an ant and put my hand on the barrier, using a little cryo energy.

The barrier immediately cracked, with the sound of breaking glass!

Everyone was shocked, staring at me, especially the king, who turned pale.

"Impossible..."-I interrupted him with a laugh.

"Well, why is that? Your barrier would work on a demon, but since I'm not a demon, it's useless to me."-although even if I were a demon, I don't think this barrier would stop me.

I saw some guard take Raphtalia to take her away, it made me angry and a second later my icicle blew off the guard's head, from which blood flowed like a fountain, of course I erected a cryo barrier so that the girl did not get dirty with blood.

She immediately ran up to me, but only smirked, watching the pale king and his guards.

Is this what they call slaps? I even like it.

"Naofumi, if he wants a duel, then just wipe the floor with it." - I said to the shield hero, hugging Raphtalia.

He looked at me and sighed.

"Okay, I accept your challenge, pedophile!" - I began to laugh wildly, from the fact that he accepted it from me, the pedophile's face turned red with anger and he was ready to attack Naofumi.

When they came down to the arena, I just watched from the stands, knowing that the shield hero wouldn't lose, I had already changed him from the canon.

The fight started just as quickly and ended when Naofumi dodged the barrage of attacks from the pedophile, and hit him in the neck with his shield, causing him to lose consciousness.

Everyone in the stands went silent, and I just stood up and started clapping loudly and whistling, then Raphtalia joined me, but the rest just watched us silently.

I saw this old fart dad what's his name, well, basically just an old fart, who was angrily looking at me as if I was a demon.

I knew that I changed the course of history and he did not get his abilities related to rage, but I did not pay much attention to it, since I was in this world, perhaps the strongest and traveling with the shield hero.

"Well, it's time for us to meet you again, but we have to go, I hope I won't see any of you again!" I said as I left, but before that I stole money from the king himself.

Raftilia and Naofumi followed me, we didn't go long as people in white robes blocked our way.

"Stop demon! We will cleanse this world of your evil deeds, in the name of the church and God!" said the game leader

A second of silence!

"AHAHAHA" (3X)-the three of us laughed at his dramatic nature.

He blushed and sent his people to kill us.

I simply waved my hand and all the people around me were stretched by my ice,

Only one chief priest remained.

I smiled at him and said.

"Oh, what a misfortune, your people are tired and went to sleep! They must have already met the god, it's time for you to go to him! And tell him that he's next!" - and with a wave of my hand, my ice blew off the head priest's head.

Raphtalia and Naofumi didn't care about my actions and simply shrugged their shoulders, I smiled and we walked past the corpses with light to finally return to the city and finish today with a delicious dinner and a bath with Raphtalia!

We returned to the hotel, where we still had rooms paid for for a few days, and went to our rooms.

Raphtalilia and I were eating dinner, which was brought in about thirty minutes, and in the meantime I was just combing her tail.

"M… like that!" she moaned, to which I simply shook my head at her reaction.

"Sis, you're not a demon, are you?" the Tonuki girl asked me.

I smiled at her and asked slyly.

"And what if I were a demon, would you be scared?" - at my words she jumped up from my lap and hugged me.

"Never." - she said, with tears, which made me feel a pang of guilt.

"Okay, okay, I was just teasing you! In fact, I'm not a demon! My race is Qilin, something like a mythical creature that has the blood of a divine beast.

She stared at me in shock, but then smiled.

"So you're a goddess?" I groaned when she called me that.

"You little pest, haven't been punished for a long time?" I said and began to tickle her mercilessly.

"Ahahaha, mercy!" she laughed, but I didn't stop until she couldn't stand my tickling anymore.

"Meanie!" Raphtalia said all red.

"Yeah, now come here, I want to hug my pillow!" I told her and hugged her, to which she didn't object.

Afterwards, they brought us dinner, which I didn't really eat, but simply watched with satisfaction as my sweet sister ate, after which we took a bath, I now completely perceived her as my sister, so I didn't blush so much anymore, from the sight of her naked body. And she didn't mind, even after she found out that I liked girls.

After the bath, I dried Raphtalia's tail, as well as my long hair, which I couldn't stop admiring, it was very beautiful and soft. I also wiped my horns, before I couldn't get used to them completely, but over time, I no longer feel them.

I also finally got used to my boobs, and even touched them when I was alone, and it was an unforgettable feeling.

I even wanted to find a girl who would touch me, but I was able to suppress my excitement, because I didn't want to lose my virginity in some brothel with a prostitute. Because I had such a thought!

In the end, Raphtalia curled up in my arms and fell asleep. and I followed her.
