Parent.

A city developed around livestock production thanks to its vast pasture area.

However, places with such abundant resources are blessed with magic, so there are so many demons out there. That's why I need an adventurer to rid me of demons.

One of them was Ira's father.

Not only is there a place around Palento where demons appear, but there is a labyrinth, though I don't know how big it is.

They were making money in the labyrinth and crusading demons by letting them stay in the city.

That is how the palento of things that need subtle adjustment succeeded in developing.

"You've finally arrived"

"Right."

In front of me was a large city surrounded by walls ready for demonic raids.

Alistair to Parent for five days. It took me a little while to rely on Ira's memories.

"You have no choice. It was years ago."

All party members are accompanied on this journey.

Me and Ira alone didn't get permission to act, and when we recruited the hopeful, everyone was to accompany them.

As far as I'm concerned, I wish there was another...

"We are already family. Your husband is in the same position as Ira to say hello, and there's no way we won't."

Everyone was to be accompanied by that one word of Sylvia.

"It's a long and idle place."

The gates of the city show the figure of an adventurer armed with weapons as flirty, but as much outside the city as that, you can see the figure of a farmer with cattle and sheep.

The farmer's expression doesn't look nervous.

Proof that you can safely travel outside the city.

Thanks to the adventurers staying, the city was kept safe.

"How many years?

"Because I popped up when I was twelve... five years old?

Ira answering Sylvia's question.

Nothing will have changed significantly in about five years.

"Oh, wait a minute"

Ira disappears.

No one is worried because they simply [transferred] back to the mansion.

"I'm home."

Three minutes later, I was contacted, so when I summoned him out in [summons], there was Ira with Sierra.

"You... weren't you supposed to bring Sierra tomorrow?

It's already evening.

I had decided within the morning that it would be tomorrow to visit the grave.

"Yes, but I thought I'd show it to someone I knew anyway."

"I hope so."

Being a dear child, the scenery in front of me suddenly changes and there is nothing to make a scene of.

Approach the city gates ahead of Isla, a Palento native.

"Mmm, you guys don't see faces."

Four soldiers were guarding in front of the gate.

Only a limited number of people use the gates of a long idle city like Palento. Merchants traveling to another city for business, people going to the ranch to take care of animals, adventurers hunting demons.

It's no surprise that a gatekeeper remembers the faces of those who use them.

"I guess that reaction is sad."

"You..."

Among the gatekeepers, an elderly man narrows his eyes and looks at Ira.

"Long time no see, Uncle Ledo"

"No way, Isla!?

"Correct"

"How many years?

Five years.

"Right. It's been five years since that incident."

I miss the old days, Mr. Redo - Mr. Redo.

"Captain. Do you know this man?

Among the gatekeepers a young young man asked.

"You remember there was a demon sword riot a while before you became a soldier."

"Yes, I hear there's been quite a bit of damage"

"You idiot!

Mr. Redo knocks on the young gatekeeper's head.

I put my hand on my shoulder because Ira was just a little depressed when I heard the young gatekeeper say it.

The young gatekeeper, who was not a soldier at the time of the incident, did not know that Ira was the killer's daughter. Though without offense, Mr. Redo was scolding the young gatekeeper when he realized he was shocked by the words of the young gatekeeper.

"I don't care anymore, it's okay."

"Really?

"Yes."

"Maybe..."

I realized what position Ira was in from the exchange between Ira and Mr. Redo.

"Okay. I know that incident was a tragedy caused by the Devil's Sword that came out of the labyrinth. Don't imitate the time any more."

"But..."

"And Ira was a twelve-year-old girl at the time. Whatever you were involved in, it's wrong to hold Ira accountable for not knowing anything."

In fact, Ira's routine was broken down by the casual days she usually had. Ira has nothing to blame.

"Did you come back here to visit your family's grave?

"That's the place"

"I know what happened to the Devil's Sword through the Adventurer's Guild"

After Ira became one of us, we've made a number of reports.

Adventurer Alliances communicate with distant Adventurer Alliances with valuable magic tools (Magic Items). The crusade of the Demon Swordsman, who was also the prize neck, had been conveyed to the Adventurers' Guild around the world through magic tools.

"Right. Max's guy finally pays off, too."

This is how Ira came back to report it, and she thinks it's all over.

Ira's father, who was a brilliant adventurer enough to support his family, was also close to Mr. Ledo, who was the city gatekeeper.

"By the way, how did you get back after all these years? And I've been wondering for a while now, is the child you're holding someone's child in your custody?

"What are you talking about? Normally, it's a child I had."

"Eh -"

Mr. Redo loses his word to Ira's confession.

Then look at the Sierra held in Ira's arms.

"Oh, no."

Sierra raises her hand when she realizes she is being seen.

"Yeah ~ ~!"

Raise your voice and be surprised, Mr. Redo.

Surprised by that voice, Sierra pressed her face against Ira's chest.

"You've already surprised the kid."

"Shh, sorry."

"Are you so surprised?

"Oh, yeah"

Mr. Redo's gaze will now be directed at me.

"What about the others?

"Members of my Adventurer Party"

"Ho."

A party full of women.

There was nothing wrong with a party just for women, but a party of five women and one man, including Ira.

And I guess my relationship with Sierra is also predicted by the fact that I'm back in this situation.

As far as the interaction between Ira and Mr. Redo is concerned, I can ask you that we are in a pretty close relationship.

Apparently, I've been in a situation like when I've dealt with my father.

"Kuchiku."

Sierra sneezed small.

"I'm sorry. It's cold out there."

It's only September, so it's warmer, but maybe it's cold for the baby.

"I'm going to stay in Palento for a few days, so I'll talk more about it later."

"... wait, aren't you back?

"Now I work as an adventurer based elsewhere. I have kids, and I'm not going to leave them there. I'm back this time because I'm really going home."

"Right."

I'm afraid I'll drop my shoulder, Mr. Redo.

I was definitely worried about my daughter, who ran away from home as well, and it was only a temporary return home if I thought she was finally home.

I can't tell you anything more from us than that Ira herself is going to live permanently in Alistair.

A simple procedure shall then be followed.

I can guarantee my identity if I submit my adventurer card.

"What, A-rank?

"And all......!

Our identity is guaranteed by the Alliance Masters of multiple Adventurer Alliances.

I can't do bad deception or anything.

At the end of the day I was still relieved to see Noel's adventurer card in D-rank.

"Welcome to Palento"

"And - Welcome Back"

"I'm home."
