In "Anemone of the Sea," Nick was rarely drinking.

He drinks up the ale poured on the wooden jock and wraps it around Zem even rarer.

"The Tiana one, this will make it a battle! What a confident thing to say, Gooska. I fell asleep. I haven't even had my last meeting..."

"Ha ha, she's the freest of us all."

"Well, I do, but I want you to be more worried."

"I'm grateful, and so is she"

Zem laughs slightly and sips a little quietly ale.

The liquor offering is grain porridge in the qualities. Nevertheless, chopped green vegetables and stir-fried ground beef are on board and not so much as coarse meals. The ground beef was also seasoned with a sweet spicy seasoning with fermented beans, which was perfect for eating while grinding the ale.

"I said miso or something. Not bad when you get used to it."

"I hear you're from the South. Something other than beans that uses wheat."

"This isn't a bad idea either. Next time, why don't you use it in a camping meal?

Nick drinks deliciously as he says so.

I've already drunk more than twice as much than Zem.

"You're moving fast today, aren't you?

"Even I drink sometimes. I'm not even very strong, so I'll leave it at this..."

"It's just about Mr. Tiana, is that what's happening?

Nick smiles bitterly at the words and smiles of Zem.

"You're gonna get spotted by boulders."

"It's an old pestle."

"Any concerns?

Ugh, Nick breathed, putting an empty jock on his desk.

"... Olivia's homework, that one never solves."

"Oh, speaking of which, you had. Was everything sticking to the wall like a lizard?

"No, you're not. I'd love to see that sight. He's upright on the wall."

"It's a little hard to imagine..."

"So, I touched my forehead from that state, and suddenly it blew away at that moment. He said he stabbed most of the white masks with it."

"Ho."

I just don't know.

"You wouldn't know that."

Zem says it naturally.

"It's called genius that reaches a first-rate range with appearance imitation. Well, I know Nick is a genius type, but it's not even a month later, and I can't remember it."

"... no, well, it sure is"

"Inspired by Mr. Tiana? But those two are inspired by you. I don't think you need to rush."

"Really...?

"Finally, so am I. I've been tickling some nice things while you've been thinking a lot."

"Tickled? What?"

"Give me Mr. Nargarva's personal belongings. It wasn't just medicine, it was a lot of magic tangled stuff, so I snuck it up."

So Zem took something out of his nostalgia.

It's an old note.

"It's..."

"This is Mr. Nargarva's study note on witchcraft. No, it's really easy to understand. I also learned a little earthly magic. [M] All I've learned now is a really initial step, but I was able to remember for free what I had to study for with less money. I gave away a few other magic tricks."

"No."

"No?"

"Shiru......!

Seeing Nick's stunned expression, Zem laughed at the pieces.

"No, that tickled was a somewhat misleading expression. It's a proper concession."

"Is that true?

"He said someone who was organizing the artifacts in his room was having trouble disposing of them. If you give it to the Knights as it is, it will only be confiscated, and it seems that magic items are easy for amateurs to get to the market. So, they want me to use it anyway."

"Demonic props are... not the ones you used to grab people, right? Wouldn't it be a bad idea if I used something on my own that was going to be an evidentiary property?

"I thought you'd be okay there. There didn't seem to be many signs of it being stored and released outside. How can I help you?

"Well, it does seem useful to be what's left of that Nargarva..."

Nick nodded with a serious face.

But Zem wondered if Nick looked serious.

"Still think you might lose the battle?

"Mm, well, I don't know about the battle until I wear waste. Unlike the previous duel with the [Iron Tigers], power is purely questioned."

"But I think we can handle losing this time. I mean, it would be like both Tiana and Karan have already settled with their respective duelists. I was wondering if it would be more important work in a sense to defeat the bovine walrus and bring the labyrinth back to normal."

"Yes, there it is."

"There...? Is it caught where we reconciled?

"Think they're getting awesome... and Karan was getting stronger without realizing it"

"Humans, you can't help but change."

Zem's words had weight.

He's a man who's been swept away by human transitions and transformations.

Nick felt the squinting.

"Right...... I should have told Olivia more, too."

"Don't you not like her?

"Well, it's hard to do... I think I've learned to listen properly before I suddenly go away."

"It's okay. Mr. Nick is born on a star that strange people come to."

"That's not funny."

Nick was laughing, saying things like that.

"Often these days, weird eaters like Olivia and Alice come by. Give me a break. Even though the old party is getting weird."

"Weird thing?

"Uh... maybe we should talk"

Nick said as he tried to stay calm.

"Previous party member may have killed someone."

"Murderer, is it"

"They say the knights of the Sun Knights were slaughtered in Katana and died chasing a human being who would spill stolen goods"

"It's..."

"[Martial Arts Hundreds] Algas the leader and Garroso the swordsman. Both can use katana. We're both skilled. Alice, the Knights of the Sun, has obviously suspected and asked me for information."

To Nick with a strong expression, Zem answered the residence correctly and with a serious face.

"Mr. Nick. We don't know if that suspicion is true. And there's nothing I can do about it where I found out. It's not about us."

"That's right..."

"I'll make sure, do you want to defend it? Or do you want to stick him out if you get a chance?

"Neither."

"So..."

Zem puts his hand on his chin and often worries.

Nick also remained silent and drank out the remaining ale on the jock.

While Zem succeeded Nick in the alternate ale, he let go of his pompous words.

"I want to know, is that what you mean?

"Mmm..."

"Sounds like it."

It was a picture star.

I wasn't told what I thought. You would be right to say that you have been given a shape by something that has not been shaped in your head or mind. Nick thought so.

"Why did you think that?

"That's what I've always thought. Why did I have to be expelled from the temple? How can you just look at yourself like this? How is it that the innocent suffer, and those who take something away from men will be the ultimate in prosperity"

On Zem's face, something frightening runs unnameable.

That's not just my experience. He touched the truth by playing with the city at night, interacting with a woman, or talking to a man, heating and stirring in a pot what he had gained in dialogue with a sinful human being. Something made me think so. If you're this guy, you might know some kind of life answer. I may find my own shameful sins just because this man sees me. Humans sitting in the front of Zem, not next to Zem, are always forced to expect and be nervous about it.

But Nick also thinks he shouldn't be drunk and flushed by it.

Because I don't expect Zem to save me, I'm Zem's buddy.

"I don't know how hard that is. But there's only one thing I can say."

"What is it?

"I just asked a hater why I had eyes like shit, and that means I only get answers like shit"

"Haha......! No, you're absolutely right."

"So I think it's the right thing to forget and live without caring at times like this. I did that until a few days ago. But even if it's a shitty answer, it's a bad idea to leave it alone without knowing."

"That's... yeah, I agree"

"So I want to know the truth. I don't want to convince you. But don't beat the crap out of me when I'm not convinced."

"Then let's do it."

"Do you?

"You should go see that [Martial Arts Hundred]. We're going up to class D and C parties, so we're gonna see each other eventually. If so, shouldn't Nick just show them who he is and say what he wants to say? What can we fear now?"

To Zem's words, Nick felt that what he had grabbed on his chest had fallen.

"... right. No, honestly, it doesn't matter if you think those guys are suspected. If you're going to be tried for sin, it's already the Knights' job. I'm not even talking about my troubled muscles."
