After I served the liquor to everyone, I asked the remaining customers to leave the shop and did the shopping. After one job, Verlaine comes to me and presents the ale - behind it, three women are still wrapped around the back at the counter.

"Hey, I wonder if you're interested in a woman named Dick. Do you think I'm just a friend?"

"I'm really serious about becoming more than just a friend... hiccup. I'm sorry, what... what a hiccup... hiccup"

"How does Miralka feel about Dick? I want to know how you're feeling."

"Right now... I've been talking about Dick for a long time... It's twisting, but I think you're a kind person...."

"Yeah, I think so, too. Dick was always thinking about us somehow."

Because Cody was refreshed, the lightness of hearing the truth of Miralka was somewhat neutralized.

I don't know if you should be pleased with the assessment of being gentle, but if you think so, the damage caused by your usual poisonous tongue will also be mitigated.

"... Eileen, was Dick nice?

"Eh... that's why it's different. Me and Dick are still like that at all...."

"I'm sure Dick feels very romantic, and still feels dreamy... oh, no, no. We haven't known each other for a long time....."

There was a conversation that made him want to hold his head, but Cody stood up after drinking the last glass, as he had said, and paid Verlaine for it before leaving the shop.

"All right, guys, I'll see you soon. Dick, you took care of me today."

"Oh, don't worry about it."

"Thank you... Cody, did you ask Dick for anything?

"Well, a little. Let me keep it a secret for now."

"Hmm... I feel like I could do something for you today. If you don't need it this time, that's fine. Let me repay you my debt."

Do you mean the liquor I just borrowed? I was so happy for my birthday celebration... I don't know what it is, I don't even feel like it's already subtly delicate.

"Suu... suu..."

"Oh, the princess is asleep. Miralka, can you take me home?

"It's not impossible... Dick, I wonder if there's anywhere to rest in this shop."

Is this an example of staying because it collapsed after a drinking party and I had no choice?

"Master... I hope you'll enjoy it tonight."

"What is that... you're in the same house. Eileen's close, so go home and go to bed."

"Well, I want to stay because I can't help myself. Miralka, Princess, let's sleep together."

When Eileen lifted the princess gently, she went upstairs to the Guild - my living space. Miralka would naturally follow me, and I would get a little flustered by the standing applause. I stood up reflectively and caught her body.

"Whoa, be careful." Poor Disaster couldn't beat alcohol. "

"... ah, thank you... I'm just a little fluffy, don't worry"

As soon as Miralka leaves, she tries to go up the stairs to the second floor. But my feet didn't seem to force me, so I sat on the spot.

"... what the hell did you put in your drink when you came to my feet?

"It's my first time drinking a lot of nails. You want me to detoxify you? I need to touch it from above my liver."

"No, that's fine... it doesn't mean touching your stomach. Is that what you do all the time?

"No, I didn't. I'm worried about my body, so I can do that if I have to... well, that's fine. You can lend me your shoulder, or I can take you upstairs."

"... don't give me any choice. That's as much as either....."

"Well, I'll take you there. Don't worry, demon kings and heroes are a story of the past. I'm just a maid."

"Nh... ah, I'm not asking you to follow me..."

Whatever Verlaine thought, he took Miralka with him - that's the Devil. Eileen is a group of unimaginable powers that can be carried by one person.

Miralka looked at me with resentment, but it was a pity that I was unable to confirm her development by taking a piss. I value friendship, but the words "friendship doesn't exist between men and women" also make me quite moved.

The silver water bottle pavilion is thus closed. I turned off the lantern that was illuminated by magic, checked the guests' belongings, wiped up the dishes and glasses used with the returned Demon King, and prepared for tomorrow.

And lunch two days later. I finished "making" in one day in preparation for Timmy's request, and I was waiting for her to come to the store.

The fire dragon damage was so light that residents near the forest were threatened. Threats are fine, but if the insects are in bad habitat, they can attack humans, so the forest is already restricted from intruding.

Over time, the breeding season of the firedragons ends and they return to the volcanic belt with the juveniles who can fly.

However, because there is certainly a shortage of food, the firedragons will fly to the nearby village to attack the livestock. We must deal with this before it happens.

--And the doorbell rang. A woman knight, a Tiger Beast woman, and an archer-like quiet man arrived wearing a brown tuesday coat to show that he was a 'client'.

When you see the Knight, you immediately realize that Manarina and I look alike. But wearing armor and carrying a spear, it is brave, and walking with a splendid breast makes you feel proud as a samurai.

I couldn't help but notice the tiger beast next door. She has a sword - a weapon of strength and sharpness that distinguishes itself from the mainstream sword here, made with special forging techniques in far eastern countries. The weapon indicated that her class was' Swordmaster '.

The lady knight and the Tiger Beast glanced at me sitting at the counter, but they still only recognize me as a guest. And the lady knight asked Verlaine.

"Are you sure this is a silver water bottle stand? I am the Knights of the Kingdom of Albain."

"There is no need to reveal your identity here, customer. This is just a place for you to enjoy your drink."

Unlike in Manarina, Timis takes it too seriously or tries to name it before saying 'word of mouth'. I'm magically sorting the entrances and exits so no other guests can come, so there's no problem.

"Would you like an order?

"'Milk'. Without it, please say," This is the best liquor you can drink in this shop. "

"Yes, sir. Would you like to" blend with our specialty "?

"Yes, 'My Originals'"

As the saying goes, the knight stares quietly at Verlaine. Verlaine smiled and the knight sighed with relief.

"Oh, good. I knew it was good to be here."

"... Dear Timmy, you still don't need to ask for an end-of-pipe guild like this. Fire Dragon, I will cut you down with one sword."

"Lia, I think so, too. If you and I teamed up, we wouldn't be enemies like firedragons."

Listening to the two of them, I think - this is why Cody is in trouble.

Timis has absolute confidence that he can defeat the Fire Dragon, even though he has the equivalent of a C-Rank Adventurer.

Apparently, it's also because I trust the Tiger Beast woman I'm traveling with. From my point of view, I certainly have the power equivalent to A rank - but that would be about 6,000 combat ratings.

If you have all six A ranks, and have the greatest collaborative effect, the battle rating at the party will be 12,000, and the possibility of defeating the Fire Dragon will emerge. But Rhea isn't enough. From my experience, the other archer who kept quiet seems to have only the equivalent of B rank.

I think I've seen how scary it is to be inexperienced and ignorant. Timis looks confident compared to Manarina - probably because he's ambitious enough to go up on his own.

"Did you say you were with Ryan-sama? How does she and your man relate to Mr Timis?

"Ryan and McKinley are my escorts. That's why I got a special accompaniment this time. Is there a problem?

"No problem. It's only necessary that you share information about Timmy's party in order to accept his request."

First of all, there is a sense of discomfort that the knight is guarding her, but that also means that she is the daughter of the king's side chamber. Some of the Knights would have been a hundred men long, but Timis didn't bring him in - because he wanted to keep his casualties out of the firedragon crusade.

Nevertheless, the Tiger Beast named Ryan will never stop seeing her - she is not a Tiger and a Human Half, but a completely separate species. It has tiger-like beast ears, and a portion of its body is covered in hair, but it looks almost the same as a human. Is he about twenty years old, his hair is short, his eyes are quiet at first sight, but there is a sharp light in the back.

Tiger Wesen's muscle strength is precisely that of a carnivore, and his whole body is tightened. Wearing leather chest straps, waist armor, leg ties, and even light gear in the vanguard, it will not kill speed. Using a sword to target heavy damage and take advantage of agility to disengage, that's probably her style of combat. She's got one eye covered - probably even a mercenary before she was Timmy's escort. I want my guild to think too much about it.

McKinley is about my age, he still hasn't removed the hood, and his eyes look shady. Medium flesh, medium back, and muscular, it has a weapon that resembles a weighty crossbow - the Albarest. Alvarest can fire large arrows that cannot be fired with a regular crossbow, so it is a weapon that can be used to fight firedragons that cannot be fired with just arrows.

Timith trusts them, but he overestimates them. That's why I volunteered for the Fire Dragon Crusade - it's not a bad thing to rely on my allies, but if a weak Timmy gets into the party, that's how low his combat reputation is.

"My trusted colleagues introduced me to this store. So I came to see how things were, but I don't really want your help. Not if you have any useful information on how to crush the Fire Dragon."

Timmy's trusted colleague is Cody's loyal employee. This bloody female knight, such as the Knight Commander is working for herself, has not yet noticed at all.

"In order to relieve you of your concerns, the Alliance's information is always useful. And if you want to make sure that the Fire Dragon Crusade succeeds, please make one promise. Follow our instructions faithfully."

Verlaine didn't take a step. Rhea's gaze increased sharpness, but she didn't say anything.

Timis seemed to be thinking a little too, but she wasn't too shy to go home without asking.

"... I have to hunt firedragons at all costs. To meet your father's expectations, and for your mother."

"Miss...."

Rhea is sincerely worried about her husband. Originally, she should be blaming Timmy for her indifference, but fulfilling her wishes is probably the priority in Rhea.

"If you follow us, I will guarantee the survival of Mr. Timis's three party members and the success of the Fire Dragon Crusade. You can explain about half the plan and decide there....."

"... no, if you show that kind of sincerity, I'll do the same. That's what listening to you means... information is worth it, so it can't just end there. I'm sorry for being rude."

"No, I'd be glad to hear that. Please take your seat and I'll serve you a drink."

Timith is not just overconfident, but if there is a way to increase his chances of winning, there is a sense of calm in his mind. If she can move according to my plan of assassination, she will surely win.

And Ryan's sword strike can hit the Fire Dragon with a weak spot. McKinley's Albarest will also contribute to making my plans more secure and less challenging. This was a pleasant miscalculation.

It all depends on the negotiations that are about to begin. I listened to Timis and Verlaine's conversation with a mouthful of liquor.
