My second go at life // Orsted x oc (Mushoku Tensei)

"I guess so, drink up and tell me about it." Soldat accepted his fate in helping Rudeus. "Spill your guts to us, and it might help you figure something out."

"Don't actually throw up, I want your feelings, not your lunch," I added.

Rudeus agreed and he did ramble it all out and most of it was what I knew, but I learned more of how he viewed the situation and he really took it the worst way.

When we were in the Demon Continent, he was terrified of losing us, so when he had his first proper romance he let his guard down fully.

Then Eris left with his heart practically, and I think it can only really be filled with love like with Sara, but...

'Ed got in your way during sex? What's that?' I stared at Rudeus as I asked that in my mind.

"Some dude?" I asked out loud when he didn't respond.

"I will not explain that part to you! It is men's stuff you won't deal with ever!" He gagged confusing us and I didn't ask more since I rather him not puke.

"Sounds like P.e." I hummed.

'I wanted to do that, but couldn't.' I thought.

"I have the same problem with ed." Rudeus laughed then cried again.

"Am I this confusing?" I asked as I rubbed his back.

"So your girl dumped you 'cause you can't get it-" Soldat went to say and Rudeus screamed. "Ceres is only a year younger than you and has a friend she meets in the middle of the night, in the woods."

He raised his eyebrows at me as Rudeus stared at me in shock. "I said, friend." I sighed.

"Good friend." Soldat corrected me.

"Yeah...what are you hinting at?" I asked. "Easter egg or something?"

"How are you two siblings?" He let out as he poked my forehead.

"Are you making fun of me?" We both asked him and he laughed.

"I'm not trying to," Soldat informed us. "But when you are down in the dumps, you have to be clear about why."

"Huh? That's smart." I mumbled.

"But I was feeling melancholy because-" Rudeus mumbled.

"Don't be so formal, don't hide behind fancy words and be like your sister, she's the casual of causal." Soldat pointed at me.

"Big words hard," I explained.

"Is that your boyfriend's name?" He asked me with a smug smirk,

"...No focus on the non-virgin," I demanded. "Rude, just swear at him already, he deserves it."

Rudeus patted my head. "I was feeling down because of the other thing that happened before." Rudeus reminded him of the thing with Eris.

"That's the cause, right?" I asked Soldat. "But I don't know how to handle this."

"Why did Eris leave me?" Rudeus cried.
