"Don't be ridiculous. Run with me."

"Um, let's talk a little bit."

"Do you have anything to say?"

It seems that he already knows the situation, and Neune felt like that the most open.

"Well, you know our situation, don't you?"

"Yes, I can only think of something stupid when I think about it."

There is no island to follow.

I thought this would rebake the rye, but Neune was staring at the swiss.

There, I could not feel the will to deny it, and the color of giving up seemed dark somewhere.

"Sweetie, you really look like Talia at its roots.She didn't hesitate to sacrifice herself for many reasons.I could never stop it.So whatever I say is useless? "

"Yeah."

"Well, there's nothing to talk about from the beginning.I keep telling you not to do anything stupid, and if you lose it, you'll regret it again.But if you don't, you'll regret it, won't you? "

"Yeah."

"Then do as you please. This old man only prays for the safety of my lovely grandson."

Neune has no intention of admitting our actions, but he has no intention of stopping them.

From the many words toward Switzerland, I certainly felt her irreplaceable things.

"Total. I will not leave you to the Swiss.I used to do that and punish you for losing Talia. "

"Yes"

"But that's what it is."

Ha, and there's a big sigh.

Then Neune looked at me with cool and gentle eyes.

"It doesn't change that you are an apprentice of mine and a cocktail teacher at the same time.Therefore, I will be worried about you because of the relationship. "

"... yes"

Neune smiled.

Her words seemed to have a deeper meaning.

For her, she was an unparalleled disciple of drunken wine, and at the same time the teacher should have been her mother.

I mean, they're worried about me like family, too.

Mr. Oyaji and Neuine are not close, but I think these parts that are not honest are really similar.

Alternatively, Oyaji and Talia may have been attracted to each other because they resemble Neuine.

"Well, then, go."

"What are you going to do now?"

"It's a good opportunity, so I'm thinking about leaving town and going back home."

"That's... quite sudden."

Nevertheless, Neune's proposal is not so sudden.

Originally, she came to this city to gain the power to counter the powerful monsters that appeared in the elf's hideout.

Although there was an afterthought, she was already able to use "cocktails" as a force, almost to the practical stage.

To tell the truth, there is hardly any reason to stay in this city anymore.I still stayed because I'm sure this city and this house were comfortable.

But from her point of view, I can't deny that she stayed a long time.

"Nevertheless, depending on the demon king's convenience, his plans may change."

Neune asks me to add, "Did you see how I felt?"

"What do you mean?"

"It's simple. If the monsters who came out of the village were also influenced by the Demon King, they might return to their original village if the Demon King left."

"Oh, I see."

The original purpose was to fight in self-defense, but if that self-defense was no longer necessary, it would no longer be necessary.It was a simple story.

Well then, I'll have to put my heart together for Mr. Neuine and the Vermut family.

"Don't be ridiculous.I'm telling you to stop from the beginning. "

That's right.

When I renewed my mind, I was again embarrassed.

Once again, Nene sighs greatly, and then pushes me away with her hands.

I felt a sense of sight and accidentally zeroed out.

"You look just like Mr. Oyaji."

…………

Neune distorted his face in disgust.

The reaction made me and Swiss laugh a little bit again.

"Well, Phil and Sally are on the participating side.Store staff will be available later. "

"Bergamo and Corsica are evacuated.Iberis hasn't asked me about it, but I'll follow up with you.Litro is missing. Kamui and Megli are at home, and they may not have heard from us yet. "

Kamui and Megli are unloading glasses to us, but basically we have all the glasses we need, and now we only exchange potion bottles regularly.But I know where he is, so I'll be in touch soon.

But the newly hired bard Lito...

"Litro hasn't come back to the dorm since he heard about the Devil King...."

When I explained the circumstances of the Demon King, he was certainly there, but he disappeared and hasn't seen him since.

After all, it seems that they are running around the city leaving a note saying, "This is impossible," but the details are unknown.

"I'm worried, so I hope you evacuate early."

Swiss nods to my words. [M]Maybe I'm not very interested in retro.

Is it because the first impression was so bad?

Then we decided to go to the dorm first.I also wanted to talk to Bergamo and Corsica briefly.

Phil and Sally aren't in the dorm.Now you're teaching knight apprentices "cocktails" and "guns" instead of me.

When I arrived at the dorm, Corsica, who was the manager, rushed over without hiding her anxious expression.

"Welcome back, Mr. Sui."

"Hello, Bergamo and Lito?"

"Niisan said to Hatake, 'I can't sit still.'Litro hasn't seen it yet. "

Okay, thank you.

Let Bergamo stay close.

I set aside the swiss and turned to the test farm where Bergamo was supposed to be.

You'll soon find Bergamo growing enough vegetables to eat in the dormitory.

Before I called, Bergamo noticed me better.

"Hey, total"

"Hello."

After I gently raised my hand and answered the greeting, I quietly lined up next to Bergamo.

The current season is the beginning of spring.From seeds that had been sown while it was still cold, new buds for the future had already begun to blow.

The same applies to compartments where magic plants are cultivated on an experimental basis.

"What was Bergamo doing?"

"Nothing. I was just watching the field."

Bergamo's voice resonated somewhere in the open ocean.It's not like you're in trouble, it's like you're just embracing it.

I follow Bergamo's gaze, but, as he says, he just looks at the field.

Bergamo must be evacuating.

"Oh, just leave them alone."

"That can't be helped."

If you escape the threat of dragon zombies, you can't take the field.

In the meantime, the management here will be put aside.

The nearby drinks factory is still in operation, but the bulk of large-scale production has already shifted to the Saffina Chamber of Commerce factory.

In that case, there is no problem even if it is stopped in case of emergency.Without control, there is no one inevitable to remain in this place.

Someone will not take care of the field at their free time, and probably not at that time.

It must be painful to leave the salted fields to the wilderness.

Bergamo looked back at me from the field and smiled ambiguously.

"I don't want to waste anything else.Besides, I'm used to leaving something behind and running away. "

Speaking of which, yes.

"... oh, I think I've been here a long time."

Bergamo says he turned his sister Corsica and the land around.

It is for war or persecution for a variety of reasons.However, especially when Mr. Oyaji told me to stay here, he was weeping.

Even though I am used to it, the situation is different from before.

Bergamo says, leaving an unreadable look on my face.

"Well, good. Let's go back to the dorm.You're here to say hi, aren't you? "

Ah.

"If you keep talking to me here, the owner will be jealous."

"Ha ha, no way"

Even a swim of boulders is not jealous of two men talking.

I don't think so.

Nevertheless, we know that the longer we leave it, the more we get upset, so that's where we went back to the dorm.

"There's nothing I can tell you.Oyaji-san and Rei-chan will protect each other, so I'm just relieved. "

"Please."

Leave it to me.

When we got back to the dorm and gathered at the dining room desk, we spoke lightly.

Bergamo puts his hand on his chest and says confidently.

Corsica, sitting next to her, also nodded very forcefully.

"I am also a beast.We will try to help others evacuate.And I'm sorry, I can't join the front. "

"Absolutely not. It would be helpful if you two followed the evacuees."

I said that to Corsica, who lay face to face with regret.

War in this world also speaks of numbers without fail.However, this time it is assumed that the improvised magic cannon users will shoot at each other simultaneously.It is not a simple collision of forces.

Rather than recruiting a powerful beast as a brave soldier, it is also true that I want you to accompany the evacuees.

I've heard that Rosemary's private soldiers will be there to guard us, but there are tens of thousands of people evacuating.The streets are basically safe, but no matter how many hands they have, they are not enough.

"I'm sorry, Corsica. We'll protect this place instead."

"Yes, but Swiss. This is not the place I want you to protect most.It's you and So-san. "

"I know."

Corsica told her to entrust her thoughts to Sui, who had decided to stay.

Sui still smiles slightly at her face, which is still scarce of facial changes.

"Instead, I want you to take a good look at Rye and your father."

"Yes, it is."

"Especially if you don't rub around."

Corsica only replies with a bitter smile to Switzerland's joking request.

I knew these two were talking to each other as information, but I never actually saw them.However, the cheap interaction between the two did not look like the girl who was going to fight and the girl who was dropping it off.

I found that either or both of them were intentionally pretending to be nothing.

Corsica

Yes, what is it, So-san?

And Bergamo.

Corsica and then Bergamo.

They listen to what I'm about to say.

"The two of us are already here.I will protect you. Please come back. "

A little wind blew through the window, and warm signs flowed.

Corsica has a very slight face, in contrast to her previous interaction with Swiss.

In contrast, Bergamo once smiled with his nose and twisted his cheeks.

"Don't die, total. Even if this place is protected, it won't be a place without you."

"Okay."

I just said one word back to Bergamo.

He didn't need any more words.
