The southwest side of the labyrinth city is an area inhabited by many middle classes.

The southeast side of the city and near the east gate are insecure, but the west side has peaceful residential neighborhoods and economical shops, as well as workshops and factories where artisans work. It doesn't mean that drunks are sleeping on the street, or that wild dogs are rampaging.

"Suissen, let's have lunch"

"Ah, yes."

In one of the paintings, there was an armorer's workshop. Craftsman's skill is certain, and he has a good reputation because of his attentive affection for dwarves with a lot of difficulty. He runs a workshop with four people: craftsmen, craftsmen's wives and children, and widowed dragon men. I can't align the number of products because there are no other people I hire, but I have a lot of customers.

"You don't have to be so root-packed."

"No, because it's like your last service."

Swissen, who stopped his hand, rises and pulls into the back of the workshop.

Since the workshop is used in conjunction with the Lord's home, I guess I can also get a meal.

"Oh, excuse me, ma'am. My boy, were you making a good boy?

"I was sleeping quietly today. I knew you'd be relieved to have a mother."

Dwarf, the workshop owner's daughter-in-law, had a baby.

It is not a Dwarf baby. The horns are still only visible on the verge of growing, but from the elbow to the tip are covered in blue, clear scales. He was undoubtedly a dragon man's baby.

"Suissen, it's a customer."

It was the eldest son of Mr. and Mrs. Dwarf who had called.

At such ages as midway between a child and a boy, he has coal on his face that is very similar to his father's.

"Dumb, you got out in front of a customer with that face! Wash your face!

"Oh, my God, I was helping you with your job, so that's good. More customers than that! Oh, it's not my dad, it's my sister Swissen."

"Me...? Mr. Bellocchio, I think."

Walk to the entrance to the workshop as Switzerland looks surprised.

"Yes, please wait..."

"Sister."

There was the figure of a Swiss sister-in-law, whom we had just met a few days earlier.

"... Karan"

"... you've annoyed my employer."

"It's each other, Lo."

Karan was walking in the city with Switzerland.

The quiet and peaceful streets of the western labyrinth city have a completely different atmosphere than where Karan usually is. Karan wasn't supposed to really like chaotic and noisy places, but he was feeling stranger and more nostalgic about the places he usually was.

"Well, you know where I am."

"I didn't follow you, Zo."

The investigation by Hector was completed in only two days, and I had almost a grasp of my current address and my background since I came to the city. The investigation ended quickly because Switzerland itself lived as a decent citizen. I entered the labyrinth city dressed as a traveler and adventurer man and his daughter-in-law. So while helping my husband do business, I use the robustness of the Dragon Nation to be an adventurer. The dwelling was also inhabited by renting the guarantor's necessary dwelling, not the rental accommodation, etc.

But at one point my husband went into another world.

He suffered from an epidemic when he went to carry goods to the port town by himself, and when he returned to the labyrinth city he was no longer half-dead. Though I was seen by a cleric, the treatment also died somewhat.

Switzerland became a widow. Remaining in Switzerland were my newborn son, the money my husband left behind, and a handout as an adventurer. Switzerland is a Dragon Nation and has combat skills as a mundane, but there were a few other things he was good at. One of them is the tailoring of the armor. Swissen used to fix his husband's protective gear, especially the chainmail he would wear under his armor. With the strength of the dragon clan's arms, but as clever as a dwarf, Dwarf, the armorer who expected it, decided to hire Switzerland. I guess I was formerly my husband's dealer and sympathizer, but it's also true that right now, I'm building enough armor to become a reputation.

Most of what Karan wanted to know was found out in Hector's investigation. The only thing I didn't know was that I had to ask the person. Karan came all the way to Switzerland for it.

"Did someone ask you where I was?

"I mean, you asked me to find out, Ta"

"Is that what your leader owes you?

"No. I was just introduced to a detective, and it's up to me to decide what to do, ta"

"Really?"

"Un"

Swissen seemed puzzled by Karan's words.

While I wasn't sure what to ask next, Karan asked me the opposite question.

"Name of the child ha?

"It's Leica. I'll be your niece."

"It's a girl, da."

"That's right. I'll show you later."

"Un"

The two continuing the conversation sat on the street bench.

Bring a steamed bun from the stall where the Swiss sen went through.

"Eat."

"Un"

Karan wonders how many years it's been since the two of us have eaten side by side.

No, it could be the first meal for both of us itself.

"So, what are you doing here until we find out where you are?"

"I want to hear all about you, Te."

"What's all this?"

"Hmmm......"

"You, hey, you've been saying that for a long time. Think when you talk…"

"Why did you leave the house, Da? Sister, is it hard for you?

Asked frankly by Karan, Switzerland was stuck with words for a moment.

Scratch the steamed buns, chew them, swallow them, and then start talking about them pounding.

"... nothing like hating your uncle or aunt or you. It's been like family for a long time."

The Swiss parents were also in the other world.

And the Swiss were taken by my father's brother and his wife... i.e. someone who was my uncle. That's Karan's father. Karan and I are sister-in-law, as well as in a relationship between cousins. Karan himself had a faint perception of cousins because of the presence of Switzerland when he was mindful.

"But there may be one who wanted his own home"

"It's just me..."

"Now that I think about it, you can take care of me or tell me if I can make out with you... I really appreciated it. It's just, after all, every day, every day, it stuffs my breath that I can't live without thanking someone. I guess I didn't have to imitate it like I was running away."

"Oh well."

"Then we use spears to defeat demons and help our husbands with their work..."

"Now, you're an armorer while raising a child, Le?

"You've done a good job."

"Even that way, I looked into this one, Lo."

"Right."

That's what Swissen said, turning to Karan.

"Instead, you're the one, why are you still doing adventurers? In the eyes of death, the jewels are taken away."

"Why..."

"I was lucky."

"Huh?"

The words were too surprising for Karan.

I lost my own parents, I lost my husband, and I didn't think it was human language left with one child.

"My husband was kind, and he didn't even try to fool me with a kid he didn't know anything about. I came to the labyrinth city to teach all sorts of things, so I managed to get through even when I was about to be fooled or killed. Kids are fine.... There's a lot going on, but it's not like I'm unhappy."

Swiss eyes, looking far away.

It's not a strength.

Even if it is hard, it has the strength to take it and endure it.

By the time I remember, she was more gunless, and more delicate.

"That's why I thought it was time to go back to the settlement and report properly about myself. So, I thought I'd stop you from crossing the dangerous bridge anyway."

"Understood."

"Okay, so what? Stop fighting and follow me around?

"I don't think so."

Karan asked Switzerland in a badly calm voice.

"You didn't trust everyone in [Survivor], so you fought and sold it like that, Ca?

"... yes"

"You think they're using you?

In that inquiry, Switzerland expressed its affirmation with a sigh.

"A group like the Adventurer's Party, even if it's in the wrong eye or in the right position to be used in the jaw, feels guilty about falling out of their legs."

……

"But that's not because I'm grateful. There are people who are good at making you feel like you're grateful. You're geologically smart and sloppy. Even if you can't read difficult texts or complex calculations, you can somehow see where human weakness and disobedience are difficult. There are people like that. This is especially true of places where people with bad galas come together. Humans are such things."

At this time, if it had been Karan before, he would have been angry and denied it.

I thought you were calling your benefactor a bad guy.

And it would have been more inclined.

To a man named Carios.

What can I do about people who stick to important things and cloud their eyes?

Karan himself doesn't know the answer to that.

"So set up a battle the way you can't force it, Ta?

Swissen looked at Karan with his eyes like he saw something odd.

"... you, really Karan?

"To?"

The eyes of Switzerland were full of surprises.

"Something wrong, Ta?

"No, the... you, a little more of that... weren't you stupid?

"What's stupid!?

"No, you know, I'm sorry. That was a bad word. You mean a little shorter... you say you've only seen it before..."

"I'm leaving now, Zo!

"I'm sorry... I didn't, I just wanted to say I grew up. Not like old times."

Swissen stops Karan from getting up.

Karan sighs at the words of Switzerland, ha.

"... you think the eagle is getting bogged down at a party right now?

"That's right."

"Yeah, no w"

Karan quietly denied it.

"You think I'm angry about something else. Yi. Do a good job of distributing the rewards. You tell me how to calculate, how to read the books, Ta. Listen to what you don't know Le...... Nick, everyone, tell me what you don't know Le. Don't believe in the detour, doubt me Le"

"Heh."

When Swissen leaked his surprise, Karan laughed all the time.

"Weird, Lo."

"Weird one."
