Three days have passed since Mr. Canoco woke up.
Amako often sees herself acting with Linka, who came to Hinomoto yesterday.
Nair and Burlin are devouring their inebriation.
While I was sometimes frustrated with the owl sleeping happily on my shoulder, I helped Hinomoto rebuild with Alc.
Hinomoto was finally regaining his peaceful routine with Mr. Hayate's dedication.
"Finally, are you going"
"Yep. Thanks for your help, but because staying too long could cause you trouble"
Just the first week into the kingdom of the Beast Man.
Me and Mr. Alk... I was finally visiting Mr. Hayate's room with Nair sleeping on his shoulder.
When I told him to leave Hinomoto and return to the kingdom of Ringle, he had a lonely look on his face.
"... you don't have to worry about the sight of the soldiers?"
"I'm used to it"
"Oh, yeah..."
I thought I had done too much while I was at it when a soldier who I thought had thrown away had turned his face bright blue and kept his head down with half a cry saying "I won't do anything wrong anymore!" when it was horrible.
In the alley, they've got people telling their kids stories that if they do something bad, they can throw it to an orga.
... Me, too.
"Right, but can't you help it? You've come here on a mission."
"Yes."
"When are we leaving?"
"I've been given a lot of rest, and I hope I can leave around noon tomorrow"
Even if I stay longer than this, I will cause trouble, and most importantly, I want to let you know that I will return to the kingdom of Lingle.
There is no Hoover in Hinomoto that can be sent to human space, so we need to do something soon to be informed of our safety.
"Is Mr. Hayate okay? I'm talking about being an extraordinary chief now."
In response to Mr. Alk's question, Mr. Hayate scratched his cheek like he was in trouble.
"Currently, I am assigned an extraordinary chief who was an assistant, but for the time being, if no one were to be inferred like this, I would think that I would be assigned a chief..."
"Don't worry, Mr. Hayate."
"Ha, I wonder. As far as I'm concerned, I don't think it's the right position... But I want to do what I can."
This guy will be fine.
It's humility, but it's thanks to this guy's dedication that Hinomoto was able to rebuild right away. There's no way the people who watched him behave properly would complain.
Mr. Hayate, who was laughing like trouble, immediately darkens that look.
"I'm talking about Jinya..."
"You're talking about being held, right?"
"Yeah. I'm still holding him because he was trying to take the magic away from the mushroom and wage a battle with dangerous ideas..."
"... what's going on?"
I felt something shitty about Mr. Hayate.
"Jinya, who no longer has predictive magic, has become terribly confused. I think it's because I've been relying on predictive magic for the past two years, but I don't know anything. I've come to be afraid of the present"
"... that, of course"
"Because of course, I think. Jinya reached for it, even though she normally doesn't know what the future is. It's a terrible way to say it, but fear of the unseen, the future, is probably the punishment for Jinya today."
I can't use predictive magic, so I don't know how Jinya feels.
But I think I'm really scared that what I've seen will make me invisible. What he did was too much, but I sympathized with that part.
"... shall we change the story? Since yesterday, as an extraordinary chief, I've been thinking about the Ringle Kingdom's writ."
"Huh? No, but..."
"Of course, I can't take it. We're going to stay neutral. But..."
That said, Mr. Hayate raises his arm.
Then, through the open window, two blue birds enter and remain in his arms.
Hoobard, a bird-shaped demon that allows for long-distance contact.
"I'm wondering if I could set up a friendship with you as a friend, out of my position as a chief. Do you mind?"
Yes, of course.
"No one will complain if someone finds out about you. Ma, Amako and I also signed a contract, so I think it's mainly a letter from Linka that goes. Ha ha."
Indeed, it is impossible to enter into a cooperative relationship with Hinomoto.
Rather, it was obvious that it was not good for them or for us to involve the Beast Clan in this disturbance.
But I'd be happy to take it this way.
When I put my arms up, two Hoobards flew over to Piong. Try again, you have cute crushed eyes.
... When I put it on my shoulder, what does it look like?
"... Ha!? I have a feeling my standing is in jeopardy!?"
"What are you talking about, you?"
Surprising Nair for mouthing things that don't make sense to wake up, he trades a simple use magic contract with Hoover.
Even when it came to the contract, it was easy because it was good to just touch Hoover's head with his fingertips and whine the decided word.
Then Nair was getting rid of Hoover with his wings in a desperate manner.
"This is my mon! Look, sissy!"
Since when has my shoulder become yours? [M] Although it is definitely in a constant position.
That's how Mr. Alk finishes his contract with Hoover.
Mr. Hayate, who missed Hoover returning from the window, turned his gaze to this one as if he remembered something.
"Speaking of which, did you tell Amako about this?"
"Yeah, well... yes. That kid told me to give him some time, but maybe he'll stay here with his mother. At that time, please say hello to her."
"Of course it is. Are you sure?"
I will give Mr. Hayate a little tour of his words, but I will return the answer immediately.
"I'll leave it to Amako's choices"
"... yeah. Then I won't say anything more. Well, then, let's switch stories. I was thinking of throwing a banquet to send you guys out today, okay?"
"Huh? What's a feast... such a big deal"
Mr. Hayate, I have a great smile.
"There's been a dark atmosphere here lately, so you don't have to worry about it because it's also a reminder to get rid of it. Besides, we Beasts love banquets. Everyone will be happy to join us, so there's no need for you to shy away."
Speaking of which, that's what the feast was like in the den.
Again, they're cheerful and fun people, the Beastmen.
I'll check with Mr. Alk and then turn to Mr. Hayate.
"If that's the case, I'll be happy to join you"
"All right, it's settled! Then let's arrange for everyone to know!"
Smiling, smiling bitterly at Mr. Hayate, who gives instructions to his men, I recall my words earlier.
Will Amako go to the kingdom of Ringle, or will she remain in Hinomoto with her mother?
Normally, it would remain in a hinomoto with a mother who had been asleep the whole time. I miss goodbyes, but I won't be seeing you forever, and I can get in touch with you in Hoover.
But you have to be prepared.
Say goodbye to the people you've traveled with the whole time.
●
I was lost.
Return to the kingdom of Ringle with Usat and the others, or stay in the hinomoto where your mother is.
If I were you a long time ago, I would have said I would stay here without hesitation.
But now that I've completed a long journey, Usato and the others have become just as important to me as my mother.
When Usat and the others were to return to the kingdom of Ringle, Mr. Hayath opened a feast for sending them out. Unlike hiding places, the scale and everything became a great feast, but everyone ate, drank, and laughed.
My mother let me sit in a position where I could see the feast because I couldn't eat food that was sick and flavorful, and I looked around in the feast with Linka.
In the meantime, I saw that Usato played an arm wrestling battle with a blown out face and knocked down the Hinomoto men one after another, including Mr. Ditez, which gave the Hinomoto children the impression of Human-Usato, but I immediately decided to forget.
Anyway, it was a noisy and fun feast.
But --,
"Thank you, Usato, thank you..."
"Aha, haha"
"Mother, why couldn't you stand it?"
The morning after the feast, my mother was breaking her stomach.
I wondered what it was, and after I called Usat, I asked him why --
"'Cause it seemed delicious"
It's not a monkey, and I want you to praise me for not saying it in a Usato tone.
What is this man saying until he turns thirty-four? Only at this moment did I embarrass myself to be my daughter.
The beginning of the matter was because my mother, who could not watch the feast in silence, put her hands on the food for the feast.
According to Usato, his mother's gut, which had not eaten decent solids in two years, had been startled and hurt.
Usat's healing magic made his mother, who had managed to get him healed, bowed her head in tears, but at the time he was donning.
"Usato, I'm sorry. I'm ready to leave... Mother, oh, I can see it, it's natural, because some places are childish..."
Apologizing to Usat in front of his mother's room, he waved beside him with a bitter smile.
"Fine, fine. Because it's more important to have something happen to Mr. Cannoco. So, Amako... have you decided?"
"... Soon, I'll decide"
To the words after a little silence, he nodded slowly.
Inside, disgusted with myself for not being boiled off, I dropped off his back as I headed to prep him, and I went back to my mother's room.
As I entered the room with a sigh, my mother, sitting in the front seat on the futon, stared at me.
"Amako."
"What?"
You don't have to worry about me.
"Remember the ugliness you just said?"
"Shh, ugly..."
In a slightly spicy word, her mother is shocked to put her hand on her mouth.
I don't know what to say without ugly about what I just did. Instead, I was more ashamed of myself.
But I guess you were listening to Usat and me from what I'm saying.
But I'm still worried about my mother. I still can't walk satisfactorily, so I have to stick around.
"You've grown, Amako."
Return to me with that word and look at my mother.
The look on her mother's face had turned into something gentle with a smile on her face, not something as unconscious as earlier.
"I wasn't much taller, but my heart's growing up"
"... extra height"
"Huff, I'm sorry"
My mother strokes my head in infidelity.
I feel comfortable in those weak hands, but with peace of mind and warmth.
"But you're still a child."
"Huh."
Words that I don't even think about, I get taken aback.
It doesn't matter to me like that, my mother goes on to spin words.
"I wanted you to live free. Forget about time chants and everything and live a happy life."
……
"The prediction I saw was that you were the one with Usat. So I'm sure it's okay...... I thought so. The actual future was different."
Mother closed her eyes to regret.
"My words, on the contrary, tied you up. Without wanting a peaceful life, I did everything I could to help me. Of course, I appreciate it, but I've missed you so much for two years... and I'm disqualified as a mother."
"No. That's not true"
Clearly deny your mother's words and keep a close eye on them.
"I've certainly had some hard feelings over the past two years, but I've never been lonely. Because, like my mother said, I had a lot of people who would accept me."
Good people living in the kingdom of Ringle.
You let me live in a place I didn't intend to go, Mr. Salla.
People overflowing with both hands embraced me.
Mother held me gently after her eyes were round.
"You really want to go with Usato, don't you?"
"... yeah"
"You don't have to worry about it. Say yourself like a child and get me in trouble a lot."
Yes, tell me, and my mother grinned.
Like a child.
Until now, I never even thought about that.
To live, I couldn't be a child forever, and I wasn't of such a character that people could sweeten me.
But in my mother's words, I finally made up my mind, too.
"Mother, I... go to the kingdom of Ringle with Usat"
I still want to be with Usato and the others.
The Kingdom of Ringle is my second home, even if I am exposed to the threat of the Demon King's Army.
"That's fine. What would I do if they stayed because of me? I'm sure I can't bear to tie my daughter up all the time."
The mother who let me go stroked her appeasement chest down.
However, when he returned to his serious face to immediately squeeze his attention, he raised his index finger and opened his mouth with a serious voice color.
"Before you embark on your journey, give me one piece of advice"
"Yeah."
"Don't miss the prey."
"... what?"
Huh? What's the prey?
No, I regret who my mother says the prey refers to, but I soon found out.
But I don't think it's normal to cut this topic out in this stream...!
"He, from what I've seen, doesn't feel like he's being favored. It's the most annoying type, but if you make yourself aware of the favor, the rest will be easy. But a short-term showdown would be desirable. Maybe because there are other assassins after him."
"... hey, dude"
One word after another, I can't block my open mouth.
This guy, really, really...!
"In other words, color tricks --"
"No!"
"Koon!?"
Knock a light knife into the brain before your mother finishes the word.
Turning my back to my fallen mother as she turned her eyes with a grunting cry, I quietly try to leave the room behind.
But --,
Amako, come on in.
Stop your legs with that word.
Undescripble emotions creep up, but I manage to contain it and respond.
"Yeah. I'm coming"
A second goodbye.
The first time it was an exit in despair, but not now.
I have someone waiting for me back here. This country has become a place for me to return.
●
Amako chose to go with us to the kingdom of Ringle.
After that, I don't know what you talked about with Mr. Cannoco. But if that's Amako's choice, I'll just accept it without saying anything.
When we were ready for the journey, we exchanged farewell greetings with Mr. Hayate and the others in front of Hinomoto's exit.
"Usato, how comfortable is that coat?"
"It's the right size, and it looks good"
"That was good. It was worth choosing according to your culture as much as possible."
The ash-based coat that was to be worn instead of torn uniform was not as easy to wear as the uniform.
I was going to make it with a cape or something, so I really appreciate Mr. Hayate's courtesy.
"Breaking up is sad, but I'm really glad I met you guys. Let's hope you return safely to the kingdom of Ringle."
"Thank you. Mr. Hayate."
"Thank you for your help"
Me and Ark will shake hands with Mr. Hayate and finish our farewell greetings.
Then, from behind Mr. Hayate, Linka looked up and leaned over and walked over to Amako.
Amako put her hand on her head with a slight stretch of her back to Linca, who had her mouth covered as she put it.
"I couldn't say it before, but now I'm gonna say it right. I'll see you around, Linka."
"... yeah. I'll write to you, full. As much as Hoover falls, I'll send it!"
"Let's not do that because I feel sorry for you"
Linka wiped her eyes with a mess on her bitter Amako.
Her eyes were red and swollen with her face up, but she still smiled.
Then Linka, who also said goodbye to us, smiled with Mr. Hayate and dropped us off.
I look back at the far away hinomoto and confirm to Mr. Ark, who is pulling his horse about his plans after this, even though he feels emotional.
"Mr. Alk, we're going to go to Miarak, right?"
"Yeah. Because I have to send Hoover too. And then... Lord Norn will lend us a boat to the kingdom of Ringle, so let us take it."
"If so, it sounds easier to go home"
I'm on a boat home, and I think I can relax and go home.
I've never been on a boat much, so I'm looking forward to it. Since it's been a walk before, I'm going to see a different view than before.
I think so. When I think of my previous journey, I feel emotional.
"Our journey is over."
"You've had a lot of things."
"Yeah, really"
In the magical guiding city of Lukvis, he trained his bully's knuckles.
I fought zombies and evil dragons, and then Nair became one of them.
In Samarial, the kingdom of prayer, he restored Eva's existence by freeing his soul bound by sorcery.
In the water city of Miarak, he fought with Mr. Leona, the brave man, against Mr. Caron, who draws the blood of the dragon.
In Hinomoto, he saved Amako's mother, Mr. Canoco.
And having finished all our purposes, we can finally return to the kingdom of Ringle.
"The kingdom of Ringle. As far as I'm concerned, I'm looking forward to everything. I'd like to meet some brave men who've been summoned from different worlds."
Speaking of which, does Nair know anything about the kingdom of Ringle because he became one of us on the journey?
"I have to introduce you to the captain."
"Well, that's... I'd prefer not to"
"No, you can't. As of my demon, you are no longer a member of the lifeguard. [M] If you say no, I'll take you."
"You definitely know what I'm talking about!?"
You imagined Rose looking over magic in Miarak, laughing at Nair, who turns her face bright blue.
"Don't worry. You have me."
"If the situation changes, the dialogue changes quickly to something curious!?"
I broke my uniform, so I can't imagine what it would look like. [M]
Well, that still doesn't change my desire to go home.
In addition to Rose, the Lifeguard also has Mr. Olga and Mr. Uluru, as well as Nack and Ferm.
"I wonder if the seniors and Kazuki are safe to go home"
"Suzune seems to be feeling better."
"Ha, sure"
Amako's words remind me of a healthy senior and make me laugh bitterly.
... Well, when we meet again, yeah. I'm going to retaliate as much as this is still the case.
Inside, planning to boil down seniors, Amako, who was walking next door, suddenly pinched lightly on the hem of his coat.
"What's wrong?"
"The journey's over, but we're still together."
"... totally, naturally. I thought you were on the verge of cutting so quickly?"
I haven't traveled to save your mother just because of my brother-in-law or promise.
That's what I wanted to do, and I acted.
So even if that promise is fulfilled, I won't cut off or alienate Amako.
Amako dropped her shoulder for some reason when she came to my answer, but as soon as she looked up, she smiled somewhere frightened.
"That's why you're Usato."
"... what do you mean?"
"Oh, speaking of which, my mother said. I hear the assassins are after Usato."
"What do you mean?"
"You don't have to worry about it. Because it's not life you're after."
Amako's unintelligible advice is mundane.
What? What do you mean, an assassin even though he's not after his life!?
Is something still happening on the journey?!? I want you to give me a break when I return to the boulder.
"Uh, I see, that's not true"
"Lord Usato seems to be in trouble from now on."
"Gluer."
Nair and Mr. Alk, and for some reason Burlin nodded with a knowledgeable face.
I don't know why anymore.
A return that seemed peaceful.
But fate didn't seem to forgive me for it.
