Episode 158: Events in Pope Lars, Part 21

"... though?

Roy returns the words after a moment.

I thought you were wrong for a moment when they said 'Master Rodine', but that's what Roy's name was.

I totally forgot.

Could it be that for a moment Roy didn't know who it was about?

Or were you wary of being called abruptly?

... I hope it is the latter.

"Sorry for the sudden disrespect! I have called you by the life of a witch!

The guard put his right hand on his forehead when he said so correctly.

But...

"How did you know it was us?"

I ask questions.

How did you figure that out in so many people?

"Ha! It is protected by the Spirit of Light, so the hair color was different and easy to understand... Um..."

The guard looks troubled from the way in and clouds his words.

... Must be my brunette.

You probably haven't even seen it.

Well, lately, I've gotten used to everyone seeing me with strange eyes and getting my attention as a dragon killer, because I was starting to think normal.

And there's no reason to call me out.

Well, but surely if Roy, Will, Shirley and the four of us had noticeable hair colors headed by me, you know what I mean?

"Oh, okay. So, what do I do?

"Ha! Follow me!

Saying so, the guard walked out.

Then we'll go on, too.

"Right."

Roy answers my question and everyone nods.

Nonetheless, it's unusual for a female guard.

With that in mind, we walked out on the guards.
