"Mr. Al......"

"Linnea, are you hurt or something?

"It's okay. Thank you. … and"

With a somewhat dark look, the approaching linea bowed her head as she came before me.

"Excuse me! I've imitated Mr. Al to deceive him...!

"Huh!? Hey! You don't have to apologize that much...!

I can forgive you, but Linnea didn't move in that position.

"No. I'm sorry if I don't apologize. I was trying to give it back to Al in good faith."

"Linea......"

"I don't expect you to forgive me for doing this. But I wanted to apologize... Really... please..."

I can't see the look on Linea's face because she's bowing her head, but it was easy to guess the look on Linea's face saying that in a trembling voice.

"Linea, just put your face up"

"Yes......"

Slowly raised her face, Linnea's eyes were dyed red, as expected, and tears were transmitting her cheeks.

I wore such a linear forehead and a light decopin.

"Hey."

"Hih!?

After holding down the decopined part for a moment, I was looking at this one like I said I didn't know why.

"Now you're welcome."

"Heh?... No, but..."

"Sure, what Linea did wasn't a compliment, but if you had taken your parents and the city people hostage, you'd have no choice. I'm not going to blame you for that."

"Wah, I... hi-ha!?

Again, I've seen Decopin again, as opposed to Linnea, who's eating away.

"He said he'd forgive me, so don't say it anyway."

"... is that okay...? I might say something awful again, don't I?

"Oh."

"Because it annoys you...?

"It's easier than saving one city."

"Me..., can I talk to Al again or spend time with him...?

"Oh, that's good. I'd rather have it over here. Let's talk about all sorts of things together again.... I'd like you to curb cursing me if you can."

When I add that at the end of the day, Linnea laughs cuckoo.

"Pfft...... If they say so much, you have no choice. I'll deal with you again."

"You suddenly reversed the situation, Oi."

I hope so. Now it seems to be Linea.

"Mr. Al."

"What?"

A curse, or a curse? thought, but Linnea didn't curse or anything,

"You forgive me... Don't hate me...... Thank you."

They said it in a voice that I really sincerely appreciate, and I accidentally blew it out.

"... Mm. What's wrong......?

"No, you've been scolding me, and I don't think I can hate you anymore."

"... heh. Then shall we raise the level of curse more?

"Give me a break"

"Just kidding."

Still hard to tell if it's a joke or not...... But he's laughing at me like he's having fun, and now I guess this is everything ok......

"Ugh..., ugh..."

I heard a groan from behind, so I looked back and the lord was just about to wake up.

"Ko, this is... my lord's residence...?

"Exactly."

When I said that, the lord looked at me and softened his expression.

"Right. Thanks to you, I was freed from that demon tribe. I sincerely appreciate it. Thanks."

"You don't have to thank me for anything else - how could you...? Weren't you sure they were taking over...?

"It did take over, but I was conscious of myself, and I know everything I was doing. Really, I'm sorry for what I did to you and the people of the city. I'm sorry..."

Linea opened her mouth to the lord who bowed her head deeply and apologized.

"No, Lord is nothing wrong......!

"No, it's my fault. Anyway, I'm the one who caused this. I shouldn't have gone on, like a nasty fight. That's what I would have done if I had apologized."

"My lord...?

The lord laughed with self-derision and continued the conversation.

"Ha, pity. They asked me to apologize for something, so I got dressed up at a tea party. Looks like they've taken over that gap."

I see. So you're saying that the other guy is the collaborator the Demon Clan was talking about? Then as a candidate, there's only one person I can think of.

Linea also seemed to have guessed, making a stiff face,

"Lord, could that be..."

"Oh, it's Mr. Gottley Nair, Lord of Tezil Street"

Tezil Street. This is the city we stopped by once when we were going to this Gale Street.

I can't believe the Lords didn't care about the Lords of Gale Street by the time they said Gale Street was a neighborhood, though the carriages between the two cities had been scrapped because the Lords had gotten along.

"If this thing turns out to be shabby, he'll be taken responsibility. But I'm going to take responsibility as well as him. I also want to start over with him 1"

"... Really?"

I don't know what happened between them. But this guy who understands his mistakes can do it absolutely well. I felt that way.

"Well, then we have to start moving quickly. and before that. Mr. Linnea, may I have this amulet, if you don't mind?

"Huh?"

against a proper linear, the lord did his hand on the amulet placed on his neck,

"The moment he put this amulet on me there, it felt like he dragged me out of the darkness. I'm sure, with this, I will never repeat the same mistake again. I feel that way."

"If that's what you're going to say... go ahead"

"Thank you. But is that boy's share good?

"Don't worry. I gave Al about 10 spares."

"No, the... that's it. I gave it all to my collaborators..."

"... Mr. Al?

Linnea turning this way with a smile, but I couldn't feel the smile from that smile enough to say at all, and it only conveyed anger.

"Um... Um... I had no choice. If we don't put this on, we're all going crazy, so I have to give it to you..."

Describing as he wandered, Linea sighed as if she were frightened.

"... ha, you have no choice. I'll give you another one later."

"... okay?

"That's okay. In the first place, because you saved the city and you paid too little for your success. Don't hesitate to have one of our amulets"

"... well. Well, I'd appreciate it. Thanks."

"Yes."

When the story came to a paragraph, the lord slapped his hand punched.

"Well, that's the end of the story, and I have to go and free your parents first, Linnea. Other than that, there is still a lot to do. But I'm on my own. I'm sorry, can you help me?

Me and Linnea nodded at each other face-to-face, turning our gaze back to the lord.

"" Of course!

"Thanks. Shall we go then?"

Now I just defeated the mastermind, and there was still a pile to do. But it didn't take that long for the city to get back to normal.
