- I want you to say no to this request.
This request.
That means turning down one of the exams that would have been chosen as a candidate for the Brave Party.
Kuena adds.
"Of course, I'll give you the money for the request. Of course, the amount of success you've achieved."
"Ho. The success of this request is high because of this decision from the Alliance. Is that good?
Riff asks instead of me.
Actually, the requisition says an amount that won't be silly.
But Queena nodded without getting lost.
"I still have enough to pay for this request. Besides, I've been working so hard... and I'm not exaggerating."
"Oh, yeah, you did"
"What do you mean?
Stop the conversation you two are going on alone.
But Queena missed my question.
"Jeed and Sheila don't have the same personality to talk without a shadow. It would be easier for you to say no."
"... right"
Queena reconfirms the requisition.
Request details.
The heart of a giant forest designated as S-ranked: contraindicated forest bottom. There is a healing water there that heals any wound or disease: a healing lake.
Securing and bringing that water. That was the request.
Same as the first request. Detective magic and metastasis make me the most advantageous request.
What's more, the contraindicated forest bottom becomes a place where I lived from childhood to boyhood. I also know where they call healing lakes.
My win will be close.
That's why Queena asked me to refuse her request.
I trembled my lips as that Queena seemed unspeakable - it opened.
"You may not believe it, but I am of the emperor of the Wayla Empire... clan"
"Wow!
Sheila shows her obvious surprise.
... Speaking of which, the news came out with an adventurer card. I thought the birth of a new empress was a great resemblance to her face, but was it just her family?
"... you're less responsive than I expected."
"No, no! I'm surprised!
Sheila leaves honest thoughts.
I just couldn't describe it very similarly.
Blah, blah, blah. I don't know how awesome you are when you say Emperor's daughter. No, should I say I know how awesome it is but I don't really feel about it?
Is this also the harm of living in the border countryside?
"But how could such a big man be in the kingdom? Besides, we're not even talking about adventurers, are we?
Sheila asked.
"I was a concubine's child. Besides, it's just a whore's. They almost never existed, and I've always been fooled because I'm a concubine."
"Oh, I see. So in return."
"That's right. If you're S-ranked or brave, you can break the nose of those guys who were fooling me and my mother. That's why I left that castle, where I couldn't breathe."
Queena's fist is gripped hard.
I'm sure you felt sorry for yourself.
"Well, if that's the case, I'm not into brave people. You don't have to say no, but you'll achieve it after the second. That's all right, right?
This request is not intended to reward only the first person to achieve it.
Pay all the achievers for their fat bellies.
It would be handy for those who have cleared this far.
"... thanks. I'm sorry."
I put my strength into the fist that Queena gripped. Stronger.
I guess it was an unintentional favor even for her. The emotion of humiliation should have outweighed gratitude.
I wish I didn't ask for it if I regret it. I suppose, but I guess it's more than that I want to give back.
The environment in which we were born is something that comes into play in our lives.
"Eh. I wanted to be a party with Jeed, so I was asking..."
Puku and Sheila swelled their cheeks and expressed their dissatisfaction.
"You should throw him a party or something."
"Ugh. I said I want you to put it together too..."
"The pace at which you take the request, the time to accomplish it, is not a problem so far. I'm not thinking about the party."
"I mean..."
I'm disappointed and overtly dismayed.
"Well, if you come with a request or something that needs to be arranged for a party, please,"
"Really!? Looking forward to it!?
Sheila puts her face so close that she breathes.
A good smell tickles my nose.
"So does it mean Sheila won't take the request? Honestly, few guilds are fit for knights. Sheila would be a candidate for a brave party."
"Yeah. So I won't take the request"
"Hmm. I can be a candidate for a brave party, so here's more: 'I want to!' Something like that..."
"Mm-hmm. Because I'm not interested"
Queena looked sorry for Sheila's condition.
"I'll give it to you for the request."
"What, why?
"Because Jeed doesn't seem to accomplish the request, so you gave it up. If I don't make it up to you, it won't be the same."
"Hmm?"
Sheila scratches the sides of her face with a bitter laugh.
Trouble, he just said.
"Queena, that's not what you're talking about. Aren't you feeling too much?
"... what does that mean?"
Stingy words return.
Say, did you have a hack. With Queena closing her eyelids vigorously,
"Sorry."
That's what I said, I left the room.
Nasty air flows.
"I'm sorry. I've been carrying that on my own for a long time. That's for this too. Forgive me."
"Oh, I know. Instead of forgiving me, I came to the guild and all I could do was help him. Now it's my turn to give it back."
Queena would say.
He said he was just doing that at the price of the battle.
But not in my interpretation.
He took care of me even if I wanted to do all this.
I want to give back what I deserve for that.
"Well, would you like to make a request?"
Take the requisition given to you by the riff.
