“Mother, is there anything I could be helping with right now?”

I asked this before leaving her room

If possible, since I was back in the territory for a change, I wanted to be of help

“Let’s see ”

While Mother was in thoughtlike that?’ the sound of a knock could be heard revebrating through the room

“It’s Salie May I disturb you, Madam?” [1]

“Ara, Salie It’s fine, please enter”

Saying ‘Excuse me’ Salie entered the room

“What happened? You seem unusually flustered”

“Yes, truth be told, athat e [2] and a nuers have sustained injuries Around 20 hted, it seems”

“Near Nan villageif I’s around there for several years already The inhabitants must have been surprised since they hadn’t encountered any for so long, I’ation party As for the groups that can be ht nowthat would be Thoma’s unit”

“Mother! Please let o as well!”

I immediately requested of her

“Ririinatrue We need every single person ht now But it has been a while since you went to subjugate monsters so will you be fine?”

“Yes! Because of the fight with those rasp on hoell I can currentlyhand should be necessary I won’t forget to bring the medicine either”

“In that case I’ll ask you to act with Tho too reckless, you hear”

“Yes, understood! By the here is Thoma currently?”

Upon those words Salie answered me

“Ririina-sa called by Sana They should be arriving here any moment now”

Just as she said a knock resounded from the door

From outside the door a voice ‘It’s Thoma’ could be heard

“Come in please”, anwered Mother

“Excuse me!”

“Thoma, you have heard the story froht away Ririina will be acco you as well”

Thoma mumbled as if surprised ‘Ririinasama will?’

Towards Thoma I declared

“Thoma, you should know aboutmore people help should be better”

“That’s true, isn’t it I understand Ririina-sama, please help us out Just, please be careful not to do anything too reckless”

Why would he worry about the sa Mother did?

Being reckless or such I wouldn’t do, I’ what I can while I can

And so it’s been decided thatout straight away

When I met them it turned out that the people of his unit were all people I had previously in the past fought side by side with

So despite being surprised when they first saw me, for some reason they all went ‘after all, Ririina-saoing on this ether

Somehow I can’t accept

We quickly prepared everything we needed, mounted the horses and departed
