When I'm ready to hunt, I leave the house and walk with Kyle to the mountains.

"They are still hot"

"Huh? Did you watch?"

"What did you see?"

Listening to Kyle's reply, he realized he had dug a grave.

Kyle laughs at her surprised expression.

"Well, I thought I was kissing."

Mmmm, I feel like I'm being an adult but I'm being played with.

I felt a little disappointed, but I looked closely and found that Kyle's smile was hard.

I'm nervous about going to the mountains, so I guess I've tried to fiddle with me.

Knowing that, this twisted child also seemed a little cute.

"What about Kyle? Isn't there a child who cares about the village?"

"I don't have it."

He asked Kyle for a counterattack, but was immediately denied.

I just said there was no room for thinking.

"No, but I'm an adult soon, and aren't you thinking about that soon?"

The general adult age is 16 years. Kyle, who is 12 years old, is about to marry.

"How old is Aldo to get married?"

"... to 27."

That being said, I realized I wasn't in a situation where I was being asked as an adult.

It is a marriage that is only once beyond adult age. It wasn't a very good situation for young people.

"But I was aiming for the top as an adventurer!"

"I'm the same, at least I can't imagine having a home until I graduate from an apprentice."

How strong a young child?

"I'm not sure."

"... I don't say that much?"

Kyle muttered as I was surprised.

"Well, when I was an adventurer, I was obsessed with trying to get higher ranks.

There was a woman who invited me while doing adventure activities, but I was obsessed with aiming for higher ranks and fighting powerful monsters.

At that time, I wasn't interested in such a general way of life-I was convinced that I was desperate to live as an orphan and had nothing to do with it.

Well, if Kyle is now in the same state as I used to be, I wouldn't need to give me any strangeness.

It's boring because I can't play with Kyle.

What a walking while talking in the wind. We approached the flower garden entrance.

The flower garden emits colorful colors today and is very beautiful.

A little dry wind blows, and at the same time, several petals color the view.

At this point you can see forests and mountains. Every time I took one step, I felt Kyle's expression was getting stronger.

As I walked worried about Kyle, purple flowers were blooming in front of me.

"Oh, it's a flan flower."

"Oh, yes, yes ..."

"This has a very good scent. It seems to calm your mind when you smell it. You can drink it on tea or black tea."

"Huh?"

When I talk about Fran's flower, Kyle replies with some confusion.

"It's a good idea to calm down a little while sniffing.

"I agree"

Kyle slowly approaches her nose when she gives the flan flower.

"It's true. It has a good scent. It's like sniffing out somewhere ..."

"Maybe it's mixed with Fonda's original tea leaves."

"Maybe that's right. I'll ask you when you return."

The fragrance of the intimate flowers seems to be cool and the look of Kyle is soft.

However, this is also a restful level. It is Kyle himself who will overcome the pre-production test.

When you cross the flower garden, you reach the entrance of the forest.

I stop my feet as Kyle stops.

Kyle stared deeply into the forest and took a deep breath.

Although the expression has softened thanks to the conversation and the flower of the franc, the trauma inscribed in the heart does not seem to disappear.

I just walk, but I can't seem to take that one step.

"... Isn't the monster scary after all?"

"I have that, but most of all, I'm scared that I'll protect me and injure me again."

Loren was injured in front of Kyle, in front of her.

The end result was no problem because of the excellent wizard, Kourne, but otherwise he might have had to retire the hunter.

Maybe Kyle knew it. That's why I fear that myself will hurt someone again.

In this case, I'm with you.

Kyle may not be able to defeat a single rabbit alone in the woods or mountains. Kyle's safety increases with the presence of someone.

However, Kyle fears that someone will be hurt because of Lauren's injury.

What should I do?

I wish Kyle had an easy-to-understand sense of security.

No, there may be. That's to say I'm a former A-rank adventurer. If you're a high-level adventurer, you don't think you'll be late for low-level demons.

Telling me that I'm a former A-rank adventurer could remove Kyle's fears.

But now I have nothing to prove it.

A-plate proof plates have already been returned to the guild through the keel.

Returning home and showing the dragonslayer sword does not guarantee that it will be rated A.

The existence of an adventurer is guaranteed by the existence of a guild.

That was something I knew on the journey, but I never thought it was inconvenient.

It would have been better to have the plate without returning it. No, but if you don't return it, you might think you're still enrolled.

"I'm sorry, let's go back. I'm sorry to Flora if I hurt Aldo for something. Aldo is close to his wedding ..."

Kyle turns her heels while I'm worried about my mind.

Oh, already! Right now I don't think about proof or anything like that, and I have no choice but to believe it.

"Kyle!"

"Yes, yes?"

Kyle is surprised, perhaps because she stopped her in a loud voice.

"Well, I don't know if you believe me, but I'm actually a former A-rank adventurer."

"... A-rank adventurer?"

"Oh, yes. So the name is Aldo, not Aldo."

"Aldread? Did you kill that dragon?"

Kyle calmly asks if she was peen for telling her real name.

Once again, it was embarrassing when told by an acquaintance, but I nodded without hesitation.

How is it Did you believe? At least, I'm stronger than ordinary people, so I'm glad I can tell you not to get hurt.

"Ahahahaha!"

Watching nervously, Kyle suddenly laughed.

It's a carefree laugh that doesn't seem like Kyle's.

Did it sound like a stupid joke?

"I'm sorry to laugh suddenly. Somehow I heard from Aldo, and I was convinced of her great hunter strength. Well, no ordinary adventurer could beat the Red Bear alone. right"

"Yes, right?"

"Yes, I thought it was strange."

By my normality, it is natural that the Red Bear could be hunted alone, but by Kyle's normality, it was far off.

Well, even the Red Bear alone has a subjugation rank of B, so is it acceptable to be recognized as such?

"By the way, what is the defeat rank of a unicorn rabbit?"

"E-rank."

One-horned rabbits are pierced by horns and have amazing jumping power, but the movement is linear and easy to see off. It is low rank due to ease of handling.

"If that were the case, Aldred, a former A-rank adventurer, would be a good opponent."

"Well, I guess he's a late person."

Things are absolutely not, but dare to be bullish to give Kyle a sense of security.

"It's so humorous that I'm worried about those people."

Kyle said, and laughed and took a very natural step.

Then walk one more step, two steps, and go into the woods. Its feet do not stop.

"It's OK to go into the forest anyway. Let's go, Aldo."

I'll follow Kyle who looks back with a bright expression somewhere.

As he walked through the woods for a while, Kyle muttered.

"... Thank you, Aldo-san, tell me to encourage me."

Kyle was able to get into the forest, but it's time to get to work. Just before saying to Kyle, you can't be hurt.

I also have to tighten my mind.
