"You've made me look disgraceful."

"Yeah, I'm not ashamed."

"Ha ha ha. That Fran has become a lady who can take care of herself."

So did Nadia, but for Musani, who only remembers the old yancha, the current franc seems fresh.

"The letter only said Fran was alive... What the hell happened that day?

"Nh"

Fran tells Nadia more about what happened to him than he told her. I feel like I was enslaved, put on a ship, and saved by someone.

"Really... You did your best."

Mursani is a complex expression. Probably confused by the slavers' anger and the fact that Fran could have died without them.

"What about the people who helped you?

"... nn. Now, that....."

"Oh, I'm sorry. You're a man of reason."

You hesitate to tell me who I am, but you also hesitate to tell lies. I wonder if that's the mood.

Looking at Fran's mouth closed, Mursani also realized a lot. Nod with a gentle face.

If you're doing business with adventurers on this continent, you know exactly what to do with them.

I didn't push any further. You're a nice guy. It conveys my concern for Fran.

"Is your uncle a great man here?

"Yeah? Oh, yeah. Fran, you've only seen me walking around."

The Ladilla family is said to have been a chamber of commerce for generations on this continent. It is said that the first generation started with peddlers, and it is mandatory to visit the surrounding villages as peddlers.

It seems that Mursani was also engaged in a pedestrian trade as part of his training.

"We handle food and groceries, so if you need anything, we can help you.

"... then I need your help to save Nadia."

He lowered his head against Mursani with a scratchy expression.

"... she's still in the castle, isn't she?

"Nh. I'll hire a lot of adventurers and go help them!

"Really...."

Mursani dropped his gaze and thought of something, but immediately shook his head with an apologetic face.

"I'm sorry... I'm not going to be able to help either."

"Why?"

"If you ask for an escort, you will challenge a large group of anti-demons... The more adventurers who have been active on this continent for a long time, the more fearful the anti-magic season is. Few adventurers will accept that request."

"... yes"

Not only Submus, but Mursani told me the same thing. Which means it's really unlikely that the adventurers will come together.

"Of course, I will try to speak to the adventurer as well... Don't expect it."

"Okay...."

Then 3 days.

Fran was active.

He frequently appeared to the Alliance, soliciting adventurers, but he used mock fights to show his strength.

However, the results are not good. None of the adventurers promised me a favor.

And today.

There were relentless results against Fran who was heading for the guild.

"I'm sorry."

"Mmm...."

The requested adventurer offered by Fran was zero. There was no one.

As for Fran, he thought a few people would come together.

This knocker adventurer was cooler than we expected. If you think about it, Nokuta is a front-line town in Goldysia. There are few runaways and fish.

The deliciousness of the reward would have meant that there was no such thing as a strange request.

That's right, I wouldn't risk my life buying meat once.

"... Master Fran. What happens to my request? You can continue posting like this."

"... muu"

Fran is worried too. I'd like to go alone to help Nadia, but I know it's hard to ride alone.

Do you want to go back to Castle alone? Spend more time here to gather people.

I can see that Fran's conflict is in my hands.

"Please... drop your request."

"Are you sure?

Fran! Wait! You're not going alone!

(... if this happens, I can't help it)

No way!

The number of people Nadia designates is 100, but it is the number that is intended to stop the franc. I don't suppose you think there's any reason to get together.

But that's not all.

Even if Fran came back unbearably, he thought he might survive if he brought the adventurer with him. In other words, it's like insurance.

I don't even know the strength of anti-demon! It's like going to die! Nadia knows that, so she asked for 100!

But!

Yabe, Fran screamed normally.

I guess I couldn't contain my emotions. I said too much by accident.

I can see that Submus is making his eyes black and white. But Fran's emotional upset didn't go that far.

"You can wait like this! People may not get together! Then you'd better go help yourself right now!

This is what happened after all... Honestly, Fran was ready to say this.

"... franc. That Nadia is ready to die. No matter how many francs..."

"I'm sorry, but I'm going back to Castle."

It was Submus who responded to Fran's murmur. You thought it was a word for yourself.

"Master Fran... Could you reconsider? I'm not alone with the anti-demon herd....."

If so, why don't you go alone?

Suddenly a third party's voice interrupts as Submas appeals to Fran to reconsider.

I knew someone was approaching, but I thought it was a wild horse. No way, you're an adventurer who takes orders from me?

Everyone's gaze toward the Guild entrance. There were men who knew each other.

"Yargille, Commander of the Third Knights of the Kingdom of Segirusel. I came by righteousness."

It was the knights who helped him on his way to Knokta.
