Cracks leading to ruins in the woods.

Ahead may be the Divine Beast, the great book of power that dwells in Reefa and Near.

When Sheena told us about it last night, we decided to get ready for it earlier today.

First of all, the mindset when heading to a place where you don't know what's in the ruins, what to do when you're trapped, etc.

I also practiced roping with them in the morning, so it was a pretty intense schedule.

"Reefa, are you sure you want to follow me?"

"Mmm."

Mr. Sheena asked us to shop this afternoon, and we were supposed to leave for the city, but I didn't expect Reefa to follow us either.

I think that as I look sideways at the reefer wearing the hood on the black coat.

"After all, you seem to know a lot about me."

"Um, well, that's something I can't help it with"

I feel my gaze when I walk through the city.

I guess that rumor is already quite widespread because I revealed myself the other day as a valiant squire.

"Should I still have disguised myself..."

"I'm not returning the mask, am I? Instead, if you wear that one, it will stand out evil."

Muggle, Reefa's stubborn when it comes to masks.

"Rather, I take it for granted. I can't believe it, but it seems that there are people here who know more about Hendill masks than you do as squire."

"You're lying...? What do you mean...?"

"I saw it with these eyes... haha"

Stunning faceted reefa and sif how he gave up somewhere.

Someone who spoke to me yesterday.

I regret that there really wasn't a mask.

"Speaking of which, it looks like I was talking to Chisato yesterday with my demon gear, how was it?"

"How was it?"

"Me and my sister, I fell asleep right after that."

Suddenly Reefa asks me that.

Suddenly, as she leans her neck toward changing the subject, she goes on to utter words.

"You had a mother, didn't you? Something's wrong."

"I don't think it was as good as anything... hmm"

I was just asking about Mr. Sheena and the adventures her clan went through.

But I'm glad I heard so much interesting stuff.

"That sounds like Chisato was nervous at first, too. Because they're your mother."

"Heh, a little surprised"

"While we were talking, I was suddenly confused when I said," What's this tripartite meeting with no relatives? "

"Isn't that the usual Chisato thing?"

It was a bad way to introduce me.

I should have just told you about Ms. Sheena instead of letting her talk to me all of a sudden.

I became too aware of the sense of surprise.

"Oh, but while I was out of my seat, we were kind of getting along."

"Why weren't you on the spot...!!"

"Oh, my God, I liked Chisato so much that I joked about her."

"My daughter's position is about to be taken away before I know it...!"

Though I don't think so.

Anyway, I enjoyed talking about turning in Chisato last night.

"... Reefa, is that the store?"

"Oh, yeah. I haven't changed at all."

Find the building, the same features of the store described on the note form given to Sheena.

I'm narrowing my eyes to nostalgia to see if it's a familiar store for Reefa as well.

What I buy is ingredients.

Just the vegetables we grow in the backyard couldn't possibly cover the reefers' meals, so they asked us to shop.

Quickly, when I visit a store that feels like 800 shops, the shopkeeper looks at my face and gives me a surprise look.

"Oh, aren't you a squire? We're shopping?"

"Yes, so I want the ingredients written on this note..."

Rumors are spreading fast, I show my note paper thinking.

As soon as the owner sees the note, he packs the ingredients in the bag and gives them to me.

"But you're in trouble, too. I can't believe I got caught up in all that noise yesterday."

"Ha..."

"I've been watching along the way, too, but you didn't get your hands on it very well. It would have been a twist if you had as much power, wouldn't it?"

For a moment, I left it to my anger to try to hit me......

I still don't think I crossed the line because I'm in a squire position.

"And you were amazing, too. I crushed the ground with my feet, alle."

"... Oh, that's public, isn't it? Should I make amends after all?"

I've crushed it for intimidation, but if you think about it, it's something in the city.

The shopkeeper, who turned his eyes to me in a panic, laughed luxuriously.

"Don't you have to worry about it?"

"Oh, yeah?"

"If he's the other guy, he's still not talking about it if his squire did it. Wouldn't that make it a tourist destination?"

"Yep..."

That's a lot of tourist destinations and stuff just with the footprints carved out.

But I'm afraid it wouldn't be strange if I thought about the thriving of this city.

"Besides, I need to ask you something, okay?"

"Do you mind?"

"Master Brave... No, Reefa, why now?"

I'm a little uncomfortable with the store owner's questions.

When I look at Reefa outside the subtle store, she kicks the pebble at her feet in her spare time.

No, it's the kid that does it, that kid.

"... how are you?"

"Well, that's good. This is what this city does now, but it wasn't very nice to her."

"... is that right?"

"He's coming back here, isn't he? Well, I know the black behind it is..."

"Yep..."

"When Sheena came shopping for us, she looked just like she was waiting outside the store in her spare time."

How long has it been the same, that kid...

Is the only thing that has changed is your height...?

But I knew you knew Reefa.

Around the time Sheena designates it as a shopping place, I guess this is the store she has been using for a long time.

"I've just wanted to see your face for a long time, but I know you can't even show your face here. If you know you're fine, that's fine."

"... I'll tell you"

"Oh......"

With a handbag with ingredients in it, I gently bow my head after saying goodbye to the store owner before leaving the store.

Talk about what I talked to the store owner after rendezvous with Reefa as it is.

"You haven't changed, that guy"

"I knew you knew him?"

"Yeah. Someone who treated us like we were creeps."

Reefa, who put it that way, wears a hood deep in her eyes.

"Wanna go see where Kate put her footprints before she left?"

"Oh, why?"

"Because I wonder what's going on"

... I care, but at the same time I get scared.

'Cause that's where I caught the giant fish and carved my footprints, right?

"... no, rather, we're going to make a name for ourselves as Demon Fishing Tamers...!?"

"That's all right. Let's go."

"Oh, yeah......"

"Reefa's treating Kite better too..."

Trying to get to the harbor with such an exchange -,

"--- Ha, ha, totally, finally arrived..."

One man comes out of the alley at the end of the road about to head, looking slightly tired.

A big man with a big bag on his back.

Blonde hair that wants to be cut short, with slightly wild glasses.

A man with so much luggage that he wonders if he's going to climb or even camp now walks over here with his eyes only round for a moment when he realizes what Reefa and I look like.

"Also, I'm sorry. Can you tell me where the inn is closest to here?"

"Is it an inn?... Reefa, you know?"

"Maybe I think it was that way"

A roaring Reefa points in the direction of the city.

"Thanks...! I was in trouble because this is my first place to come...!"

"Yeah, more than that...?"

"Oh, this one. This is my work tool!"

The man, who laughed slightly when he said so, went to the place where there was an inn after saying thank you.

You were kind of a strange person.

It felt like a traveler, but did you come here to work?

"Sa, go. Kite."

"Oh, yeah. Right."

Reefa rushes me and moves me to the port.

We arrived at the harbor immediately, but a sign was erected where I stamped my footprints, as if I were off-limits.

I thought it meant don't go in there because it's usually dangerous, and there's...

"Subordinates! Footprints of Master Alihara Kite!!"

And it was written in masterful letters in vain.

Isn't it too soon to make it a tourist destination...?

Seeing the sight of other equally sized demon fish hanging from the wooden planks, I felt so full of things already.
