Vol 8 Chapter 120 (2/2)

A sant lives, but it wasn’t too rare for a large party to rent out a building either

“This is the place”

I approached the door, and was about to knock it, when the slider covering the wide peephole in the door suddenly slid open

Fro were like the eyes of a beast that had found its prey Those violet eyes looked a little scary

“Whah!”

They’d likely sensed ht to deal withdealt with

(I should have prepared my heart a bit more)

Is what I thought, but the door opened before my mouth could

“H-huh?”

While the events had left me in shock, the one to come out the wo her shoulders Her age looked to be just around the range you could include in the twenties, or higher, or not

And walking out, she expanded her arms…

“Welcome, pretty boy! And jump into n these forms? Me and my assets: a limited time offer! Oh, even if you call hter However, you’ll never be bothered withends meet, I assure you! What’s more, I’ve not even been used ye…”

I won’t let you escape! She said, as she sent me a wink While she did have soave off a bit of an unfortunate i the papers in her hand with the word e written over the top

Fro her back

“Captain Alette! I beg of you, please don’t go outside! We’ll take care of this, so don’t show yourself in public any to feel embarrassed here!”

“Stop it, won’t you? Don’t get in the way of e! Even like this, I still search for my prince on a white horse I’m a pure maiden inside! By the way, outside, I’m also a pure mai…”

“Yes, enough of that! Even if you’re a eable age! Just get back inside already… and wait, who the hell was it!? Who let the captain out of her room!”

The wo pulled back by a nu smile

“Ain’t no one in this world who can bind , I highly welcome it”

Her comrades spoke to me

“… Normally, she’s a splendid captain I assure you”

I dropped the three wine bottles I had brought along as a gift onto the ground, and covered my face with both hands

“A wo my heart”

From the Jewel, the Third let out an uninterested voice

『Hmm, our mr lyle must surpass that one day Look up to the pros; ourfor the top』

The Seventh

『Even the Walt House’s Wonder Child would be hard pressed to surpass that one through ordinary means』

These guys are enjoying it… this is the worst

My instincts understood

That this person was yet another victim of after-Growth syndrome

Her coed her into the building I heard they were knights froarments

The knight to co his brow and getting his hair in order as he patted down his clothing

“P-please to ht?”

I decided to pretend none of that ever happened, and deal with him normally

“Yes The coht it best I gave ift”

“… Thank you”

I couldn’t really deterratitude was directed at the wine, or atthe previous scene slide

But I could definitely understand that I came at a bad time

“U, so if Imy leave”

“Ah, of course Uh, if possible, could you…”

I could understand what he wanted to say So I silently nodded

“I haven’t seen a thing I haven’t heard a thing”

The man to me

“Thank you Truly, thank you”

And said that

The Fourth in a subdued voice

『So you really did just end it at getting to know each other’s faces Even when you prepared the finest of wines』

The Sixth

『Well, you got to see an eetting acquainted It wasn’t all negatives No, 』

The Third too

『It was the best of tioes around carrying that docu before!』

The Fifth

『Looks like e has extended beyond e to boot, in to suspect defective merchandise』

The Seventh as well

『Luck wasn’t with her, is one thing But she’s a holder of competency to put her up at future vice-head? Is that so… isn’t that fine, then?』

The Sixth agreed

『Splendid Truly wonderful Now then, the problem is how to make use of this, but…』

They sounded to be plotting so sinister My ancestors

(These guys are scary)

After having successfully (?) co inhabited by Alette Baillet’s party, and looked around the area as I walked

It wasn’t rare for successful adventurers to have a stronghold in Beim I there were adventurers that owned mansion-like complexes, there were also parties that preferred the functionality of an inn

(It increases our expenses, so I’ll have sohold so, it would be nice to have a warehouse where we could do so about the sound)

Our currentan apart there would be fine, but I’m not really sure what to think of that

(Perhaps it would be best to make it as showy as possible And wait, that would cost money by definition… Labyrinth missionss have a nice prospect of profit, and I’ll be able to find out just how they work this time around)

As a leader, there was much I had to think about

At times like this, I think it would be easier if I could just le party member And at the same time…

(That Nove on me? Or perhaps…)

She used to be s for my sake, but after that case with Celes, I felt a distance had been created

I could think of it as being recognized, and my decisions trusted, but it did feel a little lonely

(… It’s best I went and spoke with Novem about it She does do quite a bit or my sake)

The reason I didn’t press her too hard may have been that I didn’t want to be hated by her

And it’s not like I was the only one stretching things out The ancestors… especially the Third, and Fourth were particularly for it

The other ancestors did more or less have their doubts about Novem of the Forxuz House, but they didn’t tell me to try any press her for answers

That must be just how deeply they were intertwined with the Walt House Even those that treated theht they would ever turn coat

(Coe one The first did say they used to be neighbors or so)

The Second, and the Third, and even the Fourth had relied on theh that it’s been said it was never the throne, but to the Walt House the Forxuzes had sworn loyalty to

(I really do have to have a proper talk with her…)

On the way ho I shouldn’t be asking? I felt a sense of unease in my chest
