A week after that.

Roger won't return to his report.

Roger, who can use the [Gate], doesn't think he's taking the time to get around.

There was no sign of him coming to my house.

"What is that stupid elf doing?"

Sleigh and stupidity came out of my mouth.Even if it was an empty gesture, I would be able to report on the progress.

Stupid elf?

When I raised my gaze to my voice, there was Orlando who had been temporarily throwing a party with me.

Ah, Orlando-san, you're here.

"Meet Iris and Roland."

Thank you for your time.

Among the guilds, Orlando stood out.

The same was true of the great sword that I carried, and I didn't see many elves in a town in the countryside.

Shall I call the branch manager?

"Yeah. More than that, Elf?" Who are you talking about? "

"Give me your name, do you understand?"

Perhaps, Orlando shook his head vertically.

My name is Roger Sandsong.

It was the name of the Demon King's army, so I don't know if I could tell, but it seemed to be pinning down.

Sun-chan...

Sanchan?

"I was a friend..."

Do you know each other?

No, isn't it now?You said you were friends.

"I didn't think he was alive."

Roger was originally an Elf, but because he was being licked, he belonged to the Demon King army as a Dark Elf.I don't know anything before that.

I could see the female adventurers waiting behind Orlando listening.

I wonder if you know this big sword elf, Argan-san.

"This person is also an Orlando-san of the S-rank [Sword]......"

Complete the queue of adventurers.

It may be a bit long talking with Orlando.

I decided to meet at the designated tavern after work.

"Sun-chan and her sister Marion, Aura, were very close."... the trees in my hometown forest are special.The humans, knowing that it would be a material of some kind, cut it down a lot. "

Orlando had already swallowed at the end-of-work tavern.

When I got to the opposite seat, I started talking nostalgic.

"This is a good story."

The Elf Forest is often an untouched forest.

Unusual trees grow and rare ore is buried in the soil.

It is said that the Rogers fought against the humans when they saw the greedy.

"San-chan, the daughter of the chief. She fought."My sister Marion and Aura.But it didn't work. A lot of my people have been killed.neither Marion nor the sheikh.... "

Roger entered the Demon King's army because of revenge...

Orlando managed to survive and start earning a living as an adventurer.

How are you, Sun-chan?

I think so.

I have requested an investigation into the Kingdom of Jørvensen.

Knowing that his beloved Lyra might be there, Roger left the house with joy and courage.

If the angle is off, it seems like even one of the complaints will come to me, but for now, there is no such thing.

If Roger's goal is just to find Lila, he can nod if he doesn't bother reporting what he found to me.It's no wonder my husband thinks he's where he belongs.

"Sun-chan, I miss you..."

Almost ready, Orlando began to share his childhood memories.

It seems that Roger and his sister are familiar with childhood.

If you're a friend of Takema's, I'd like to contact you, but I don't know where Roger is right now.

Maybe Dee would have been better off investigating.I'm busy with quests, so I'm afraid not.

"--No, really, seriously"

"You're lying. You saw it wrong, didn't you?"

In the hustle and bustle of the tavern, I heard the voices of two adventurer-style men at the counter next to each other.

"No, no, this is serious.He was a former king. You can't go wrong. "

Orlando seemed to be hearing it, and began to talk about it.At the same time, I asked for a refill by opening the glass.

"Recent Topics"

Is it a topic?

“Yes, there is a place where you may meet the dead.”

I can't think of anyone I'd like to meet who's dead.

"I'm sorry, I was just talking about that."

I spoke to the two guys at the counter.

Where was it witnessed?

The two immediately realized that they were Argan-san, the staff member, and they told me without asking.

"I saw it near the Demon King Realm."Oh, it's different now, isn't it? "

It is called the kingdom of demons, and it is located between the Duchy of Badenhark and Jørvensen.I know exactly what's going on with the former.

When it comes to that...

"Roger, I don't know where Lyla is anymore..."

I thanked the two of them and went back to my seat.

I thought my hands were stopping and I fell asleep with my cheek stick on.

You'll catch a cold.

I put my jacket on Orlando, and I finished the accounting and went out.
