Clo and Alice's business talks also went through a paragraph, and when I thought about going home because my long stay was there, Alice talked to me just at that time.

"... Mr. Kite, you're ready for what you asked for before."

"Ugh!? Boulder, you're working fast..."

"Huh? What?

What Alice talked to me about was the job I asked Alice to do a while ago... I also put difficult conditions on the boulder, and I thought it would take longer, but she's already done it.

Naturally, only the two of us could tell. Interested in the conversation, Crowe approached with his neck tilted.

"Crowe just wait there for a minute!

"Heh? Oh, yeah"

"... so, Alice. Where are the examples?

"It's here. You must have fulfilled all the conditions Kate gave you."

Stop the clo that was closing in and I'll pick up the little box from Alice and check inside.

... boulder, all I can say. Excellent work... you have cleared my request, which means that that anxiety element has been successfully eliminated.

"... thanks for your help. So, how much?

"I, the boulder, also had a hard time getting that material. So how about 10000 Rs?

"Okay."

I'm glad to say it's pretty expensive considering the stuff, but it's a reasonable place considering the demands I made.

That's what I thought, I handed Alice a piece of gold without worrying about it.

And I thanked Alice again, and then I left the store behind with Crowe.

"Mmmm."

"... why are your cheeks swollen?

"... Kite made me an excommunicated..."

"Don't be stubborn..."

Apparently he doesn't like how he was soaking after turning Chro into an excluder earlier, and Chro swelled his cheeks adorably and turned that way.

That said, Clo didn't seem seriously angry either, and after a few moments, he sighed and put his cheeks back together.

"... well, if you don't want to tell me, I won't ask..."

"Huh? No, it's not like I don't want to say anything..."

"Yeah?"

Seeing Cro tilting his neck at the words I told him, I took out the box I had bought from Alice earlier, aware of the tension... and offered it to Cro.

"... uh, that, cr... always, all kinds of things... thanks"

"Huh? Yeah? Or, Kite?

"Say thank you daily or whatever...... if you like, I want you to take it"

"... Oh, thank you... uh, can I open it?

"Oh."

Yes, what I was asking Alice... was a gift for Cro.

Long after I came to this other world, I wanted to thank Cro for something I really cared for, and after all I thought about it, I thought I'd give it away.

I just care about the words Crowe used to say, and I didn't think I could just give them away... so I asked Alice to rework them.

Khlo slowly opened the box he received from me, took out what was inside and gave me a surprised look.

"Could this be..."

"Yeah. Before... uh, so, when we dated, I liked Crowe's necklace. I asked Alice to make it out of a material with great elasticity... and I don't think it would break even the appearance of a warcraft."

"... kite... kun"

The necklace that Crowe took out of the box was designed with several silver stars in a row, asking if Crowe would look good on a previous date.

At that time, I didn't buy Clo because it was going to run out when it was in Warcraft mode... Actually, I was buying it sneakingly later.

And when I asked Alice if she could make it so that it wouldn't cut even if she looked big, she told me that it would be okay if I used a special material, and she asked me to get it and make it again.

Alice's technique is a brilliant one, a normal necklace from the look of the pack...... no, it is more delicate and clean for the finely crafted, but with excellent elasticity, it is made to fit the wearer.

Khlo looked at the necklace he had received from me for a while, gripping it in front of his chest, then stared at me, shaking his eyes as if he had dyed his cheeks slightly and was upset.

"... Kite... I..."

"Yeah?"

Clo shrugged something with a small voice that seemed to disappear, but the words stopped immediately... Clo gave him some glitzy look and lay down on his face.

After a little silence flows, Crowe looks up and smiles brightly.

"Sorry. Nothing...... thanks, kite. I'm so glad... I'll take care of it."

"Oh, yeah."

I didn't know what I was about to say, but apparently it wasn't a good topic to step in so easily.

At least, I could feel the real emotion telling me not to ask you anything more from some unusual smiling cro.

"That's right! Kite, I'm going out with you around the corner, and we'll have something to eat."

"Oh, if you say so, it's just noon."

"Yeah, yeah. Then let's go to my recommended store!

"Recommended? What kind of restaurant?

"Eh - I used" Stripe Frog Meat "..."

"In change"

"... Huh?

I've come to this world to eat all sorts of things.

To the meat of the dragon, to the meat of the bear, to the meat of the terrible things that make the tyrant worm... but still, I still want frog meat to give up.

No, I know there are edible toads and stuff... but I still have great courage to eat, so look at some more times...

Dear Sir, Mother, Father - Ever since I came to this world, I have exchanged the most words and the people I am closest to. But I realized what happened today. I still don't know what's in Crowe's mind.

The castle of CromEina, the underworld of demons... Zex visits CromEina, who is relaxing in his own room.

"Dear Chrome, about tomorrow's visit... oh?

"Yeah? What's going on?

"No, you seem in a much better mood. Sounds like a lot of fun."

"Haha, well, a little... I guess I feel good"

There is no denying what Zex has said, and KromeEina smiles like a girl.

"Is that... a necklace? It's unusual for Chrome to attach accessories."

"Yeah. Well, I really liked it... how about that? Suitable?"

"Yeah, it looks great on you. But it looks like you're doing some pretty powerful state preservation magic."

"... yeah. If it gets dirty, I don't like it."

ChromeEina has a brilliant silver-tone star necklace on her chest, and basically ChromeEina, who doesn't attach accessories, is wearing it all the time, which means she really likes it.

As if dealing with a treasure, Zex also smiled calmly when he saw Chromeeina stroking the necklace on his chest.

"Really... Excuse me. I'm here for tomorrow's meeting."

"Oh, right. As I wrote to you beforehand, I think you'll be all right around 10: 00."

"Then I'll send Hummingbird like that."

"Yeah, it's nice to meet you - I'll have some samples reshaped just in case."

"I'm in awe"

After a light meeting of plans to visit Lilia's mansion and seeing Zex carefully bow his head and exit, Kromeeina turns her gaze to the necklace on her chest.

The look on its cheek-dyed and smiling face is like a maiden in love...... I get the impression of being young as it seems.

"... sloppy, isn't it? I'm so glad you decided."

After whining to himself to no one, Kromeeina strokes the necklace again and then... mouths lightly on one of its stars.

"... kite kun. You think it's true... that maybe... it's my... it's... it's...

After muttering in a voice so small that it could not be heard, Kromeeina looks up at the void.

The look on her face, mixed with joy and loneliness... seemed to show the complexity of her holding, and such a first gift from a loved one was brilliant on her chest.
