"You, that's..."

"Anyway, Nick. Now I guess you're keeping it a secret that you have the Holy Sword in front of you, that's the right decision to make. Keep going. Don't be targeted. If you say you don't like that, be strong enough to pay back the guy you're after. It's not just about the arm. It's about power and money."

"Tell me more about that guy you're after. You just said Carios, didn't you?

"I can tell you..."

Leon squeezed his jaw, indicating who was behind Nick.

As Nick looked back, the Sun Knight approached us with his hips up from his chair.

"Time's up."

"... well..."

"Please plug something in the next time you come. Oh, I don't need booze. Paper rolls of cigarettes or sweets don't help. I can't let it taste bad."

"Be patient with that. Weren't you comfortable?

"Beh, that's not good... that's something other than a diet"

"Damn."

Nick gets up with his tongue pounding.

The purpose we came here for was to have been accomplished, but it is closer to the outfit where we were poked at the problems to be solved than that. Exhaling a thick sigh of fatigue, Nick followed the Solar Knights' detention center.

I'm home.

"So it's not your house."

As Nick opened Tiana's apartment door, Tiana shrugged her shoulder in a frightening mood.

Behind it Kizna, Zem and Karan were giggling dull.

"You can rent a place like a rental conference room, huh? Or we could jointly rent a large apartment or a house and make it a storage and conference room."

Nick says, but it didn't even fix Tiana's mood.

"I also regret getting my monthly rent out of my joint purse! Then I'll lend you about us!

"That's what's gonna happen."

"So thank you"

"Heck, I appreciate that."

"Yes, good."

Tiana smiled in great arms when she heard the words.

"So it's Nick. How was the tail?

And Kizna asked.

Survivors were waiting for Nicks in Tiana's room.

The outcome of Nick's and Leon's discussions could determine the policy of future survivors. Everyone was intrigued to wait for Nick's words. But Nick looked a lot faint.

"No, you know what Kizna is. I told you in my letter."

"I kept my mouth shut because I didn't even think it tasted good to tell you in a message."

"Hey."

The stabbing gaze of all gathers in Kizna.

Kizna kept a cool face and laughed naggingly.

"Fair enough, isn't it good? This is not what you ask yourself. And."

Kizna sees Nick in a meaningful way.

Indeed, Nick had a story to explain directly in words.

It's loaded with boulders to make Kizna explain everything Leon's story.

"... Damn. Ma, I haven't had to find out at the moment. And the pause went well."

"Really? That's good."

Zem exhaled in a ho.

"Just, hey..."

Nick clouds his words so hard to say.

And I saw Karan.

"What's up, Ta? Eat Ca?"

Karan had shaved and skinned oranges on his cheeks.

There are many citrus fruits lined up on the market this time of year.

Apparently Karan bought it in bulk and it was piled like a mountain on the table.

"Good while you eat, we need to talk"

"Ugh, un?

Karan can't see the story and nods vaguely.

As it was, Nick began to explain to everyone the upside of his story with Leon.

Little by little, the looseness disappeared from Karan's vague face.

"I mean, we'll wrap up the story. One is that we have suspicious bandits targeting artifacts, so be careful. And the other..."

Nick sees Karan.

When I was adventurous, I looked tough, showing it only when I saw it as a strong enemy too.

chewing and swallowing oranges with a harsh face,

"Nick."

"What?"

"... that kind of serious story, after you finish eating, lo"

"Sorry."

Karan complained with a slight blush.

"Anyway...... karios clue, what na?

To Karan's whining, Nick nods.

Karios is the leader of an adventurer party that plunged Karan.

The style of blonde longswordsman is also consistent with Karan's memory.

Carrying away Karan's treasure, the "Dragon King Jewel," he was the enemy to be found at all costs.

"Oh. Apparently you've been working in a labyrinth city for years."

"Leon got the artifact stolen, didn't he, Na?

"Apparently."

Nick nods.

"So you think you made a little money, you got expensive stuff, and that's why you get away from the labyrinth city, Ka?

The man who called himself Carios stole a fairly expensive magic guide from the Leons [Silver Tigers].

Still, he continues to deceive Karan and other scams.

If so, Karan's predictions are probably correct.

"Karan. I know what you're trying to say. But I didn't find out exactly where he was right now. So..."

"Un, understand le. Mostly, that was a long time ago. Lo? It could be the same last name, and I've been using a fake name for a long time. Le. Kind of weird."

Karan was calmer than Nick expected.

Karan had the seriousness to try to carve the stories he saw and heard into his head, but there was no rush or anger.

"But just more clues to find out is enough da. Thanks, Nick."

"Oh, wow."

Nick blushed more to say too honest a thank you.

Nick keeps talking as he takes his gaze off Karan.

"... In the meantime, I'll look into that [Silver Tiger Team] thing. If having an artifact is going to get us into trouble, we're already party to it."

"Um, I was trying to keep my mind tight."

Yes, Kizna says, another stabbing glance pierces me from all of them.

"Ko, I'm not a victim of all this either!? It was sealed that there was a bandit specializing in artifacts. I don't know!

"If you don't know, don't know. Be party conscious."

"Of course, no help is spared. I hope you feel like you're on a big ship."

Kizna puts her chest up.

Nick shrugged his shoulder when he saw it.

"Whatever. Karan, let's go discreetly without haste."

"So, Na to worry about. So unexpected, Ka?

Karan makes a much more dissatisfied voice.

"No, I hope you're not offended, but I was wondering what I'd do if I flew away"

"Silly."

Karan throws the orange at Nick.

Nick took the flying orange with his right hand.

"... something, I thought I figured it out da. Duel Leon or Clodine."

"Okay, so what?

"That beating or being beaten isn't the only way to solve it"

"No, we beat each other up. The other day, it was like killing each other."

"Not so, Te!

"No, I'm sorry. Just kidding."

"Damn...... Nick, a joke in a weird place w. Anyway."

Karan really coughed up.

"Examine it properly, set up an operation and find out if there are any more holes... You know, eagle, I've never done that before, Ta. But maybe that's what smart people are for."

"... Karan"

"I can do it with my current eagle. At least not alone. Maybe that's what it takes to find Carios and take back the treasure. So this time, learn ta"

"In many ways."

"True Da! I'm just tired of solving problems, Na! Si telling you to do your homework even though the duel is over!

"This kind of thing is about daily training."

Nick laughs slightly and Karan complains about the boo-boo.

But even as he complained, Karan was taking it seriously.

Tiana, who knows that, strokes Karan's head, okay.

Something warm like sunshine flowed into Nick's heart when he saw it.

Nick's mind wasn't otherwise cleared when he defeated Leon or Clodine.

Even with the disappearance of pain like a stabbed bone in the throat, it's not comfortable.

That should please you, but the bad aftertaste and bitterness lingered.

The bitterness has now vanished from Nick's mind.

The fact that Karan was walking forward and growing step by step was giving Nick a definite sense of reality.

"... what the heck, yo, everybody laugh?

"What, don't worry"

If you notice, the other three, except Karan, had the same smile as Nick.

Karan complains shyly.

"Weird looking Na! Anyway!"

"Ooh."

"The case is finally settled, Da. I'm also tired of pulling and studying in my room! Played outside I!

Everyone nodded "Indeed" to Karan's words.

Until one incident with Leon settled down, all the survivors refrained from playing flashy.

Nor has Nick gone out to the Bard (Idol) concert.

"... right. I'm going to relieve myself of stress."

"Hey, is it finally like being comfortable or something"

"Because it's bad for your health if you're pulling it off."

Tiana, Zem and Kizna laughed in a flash.

"Right, Lo? First, Nick also sat down and took a break. Tired, Lo?

"Right, shall we make tea?"

Zem, why do you normally use the teapot in my room?

"Was I wrong to use it? I have good herbal tea."

"No, it's okay... I mean, is herbal tea delicious?

"Tsuka Tiana. Too much stuff in your room...?

"There's a lot of magic lab equipment in the magic book, and it's becoming a dirt room."

"Yes there! It's against the rules to interfere with people's privacy!

"So is that, bad"

"I think it's like, 'I'm gonna help you clean up,' or something."

"It's okay. We got this."

And Nick sips the herbal tea offered by Zem.

The sober taste stained Nick's tired body.
