"We know that it's a good story about insects.I'm sorry I initially hid half my purpose. ”

Karen said with her head down.

“I won't say it right away.I can't even tell you... "

Karen raised her face. I don't have any more vague feelings.Though it is crisp and tight, there is also a danger of crying.

I looked around my family.Everyone nods small when their eyes meet mine."I'll leave the decision to you."

Speaking of emotions, including mentees, you can also refuse and yell at them.Probably, it's acceptable. There is no urge to do so.

However, calmly thinking about the future, it is effective to have one person who can understand the movement.The most frightening is the blow from the darkness.

If we avoid that, it would be useful to keep her here in the Kingdom.She may have already told others, but she's not a hearsay, she's a person who knows how to get to us.

Then I think it's okay to accept the story itself.I am aware that I cannot say that there is no side tied to my feelings by throwing out the finishing touches.

However, I am saying that I can be a disciple for many years, and if I can really trust her, I can just welcome her into my home at that time.

If she gives up by then, that's it.At that time, I might have to fortify the area around my house or find some magical land.

And, well, if you ask me if I have any imperfections at all, that's fine."Because I can't understand it anyway" and "the truth of what I call being from the north" are not revealed to anyone, and I still hold a secret.

Silence flows. It even feels like time itself has stopped.

I opened my mouth slowly.

Got it.

That's the word that came out of my mouth.Karen's face turns bright.

“But”

But I won't forget to add it.

“Just this one, think not next time.If there's anything I can do, I can move somewhere. ”

I found Karen breathing.Marius must be laughing bitterly because he thought that the second stage would also include holding him back.Even if I didn't hit it, it was from a distance.

A friend is not an unconditional friend.Interests can arise there, and it doesn't always get to prammi zero.I think how much you care about it is the difference between family, friends and others.

Got it.

Karen bows her head deeply again.

No, thank you very much.

I bow my head like her, too.It may be on top of the position, but it is not a head that can be lowered and reduced.

I wonder if it's all together now.

Marius sighed so small that he couldn't tell if he wasn't careful.

I don't know.

When I raised my face, I laughed.Unlike Marius, I didn't want to be a charmer.

"I've got a lot of misunderstandings, but let's proceed from scratch."You and me, too. "

I held out my right hand to Karen, who raised her face.It's "Southern".

"... yes!"

Karen took my hand when she regained the brightness.Let's start a new relationship from here.I don't know what lies ahead of that relationship, but maybe my family and I can manage.

Marius went back with Karen.There's Camilo and our family in the room.When I was talking to Camilo, Mr. Gozu came back, so we decided to come too.

My heart is clearer than when I came.I didn't go as far as my footsteps, but I tried to leave the room lightly, and Camilo was the only one who could stop me.

Everyone goes first, and only me and Camilo remain in the trading room.

Camilo said after a breath.

"I won't tell you personally, so I'll tell you for now..."

A momentary hint.

It was Marius who managed to sum it up on these terms as a concession.

What do you mean by that?

I can imagine it, but if you know it properly, you should ask Camilo.

"Your skill is known by the Count and the Marquis."Of course, that's why I don't want to let you go as a "mainstream". "

Hmmm.

It's information that I can't leave alone to relax, but it's a good thing.

"But don't let the people from the north come flashy."I couldn't help but find myself in the eyes of the "duke". "

"I don't think it's a 'mainstream'."

Camilo nodded. He keeps teasing his mustache with his fingertips.

"I lived in the" Black Forest ", and I was able to hide most of the names and entrances to the city of Amur, but then you were just a blacksmith with a little skill."

Actually, yes.

Camilo smiles bitterly at my words.

"'The North just picked up the blacksmith? It wouldn't be strange to hear you say 'hand it over before you get mad'. "

Oh, well, that's it.

Now it was my turn to smile bitterly.Except for being a cheat at the moment, I'm just a blacksmith.There is no reason why such a thing should be defended at risk.

If you try to protect it, it's like proving that you're “more important than you're saying.”

Marius is the one who set the conditions for you to be in your city and Miss Karen to stay in the city.

"I see..."

I thought it was a bit of a strange condition, but my friend seemed to be cutting himself more than I thought.

I say it with a smile.

I'll make it up to you so you don't know it next time.

"Just do it."

In the same way, Camilo laughed.

Camilo dropped me off and said, "See you later."

Thus, I returned to the "always" that changed the shape.
