The request was switched from checking the status of the Kingdom of Illegalia to escorting Maribel.

Rayphone is the one who gets the request.

There are three people on their way to the Kingdom of Ilgaria, paired with Maribel and Eliza.

They keep it a secret from the two remaining escorts.

I don't know about God.

And...

"- I got the story. Maribel was actually the princess and Eliza was the escort."

Maribel and the others lightly revealed their identity to Rayphone.

"... you're surprised, aren't you?

"... well"

It is a lie.

Rayphone knew.

"So, I don't care if Maribel is a princess, as long as I get paid to be alone or whatever."

It is true.

"It helps."

"But Maribel doesn't know what I'm capable of, okay?

"That's probably... okay"

For some reason, Maribel felt that way.

"Oh, please, if anything happens, I'll protect you."

"What... is that..."

Maribel blushed at Rayphone's words.

"Is that a triple strand?!?"

"Why does that happen!

"Yes, because Mr. Rayphone likes women... no way!? Aim to Eliza... four strands..."

"What's going on with your head! Who likes women, asshole?

"Chi, aren't you!?"

Maribel gave me the most amazing look of the day.

"No! Huh... Mr. Eliza? What's going on with this princess? It's about the head."

After sighing, Rayphone spoke with a tired look on Eliza's face.

"hehe."

But Eliza just laughed with a pleasant look.

"No, no, no, don't laugh. Answer me, Mr. Eliza!

"Phew, I think that's good if the princess looks like she's having fun."

"... it's not the answer?

"Hey, then... Mr. Rayphone likes men, doesn't he?

"How can that be! I'm normal!

Maribel, who had made me include a different imagination if I thought she was dear.

By the way, Maribel is just saying what she purely thought.

No offense...... probably not.

"... for now, you're good to leave tomorrow morning, right?

"What? What are you talking about, Mr. Rayphone?

"It's a request you made!

"Oh yes... sorry... if I... follow"

Maribel holds her reddish face in shame with both hands.

(It's on. Are you sure you're okay with this guy... and Eliza is still laughing...)

I thought it was easy. I'm beginning to think the request has become a cumbersome one, Rayphone.

"So, can we meet at the gate tomorrow morning? Well, I'm gonna go now, right?

"Ah, yes. Tomorrow," for a little while, "please, Mr. Rayfon."

"Heh heh, nice to meet you, Mr. Rayphone."

After word returned from the two, Rayphone left the guild.

And I thought.

(For a little while?

"Right! The fact that you two are traveling together doesn't mean I can't just go and come home by myself... Shit..."

I hadn't thought about it in depth, Rayphone.

"That's a hassle... I'll have to go back and explain it to Ash once... and he (Milibears) will probably still be there..."

Nonetheless, Rayphone has no choice but to do what he asks.

The footsteps back to Rayphone's inn are heavy.

There is no doubt that Ashley is saying something to Rayphone.

Even though it's a request, it's going to be a little trip with two women.
