3-21 Beginning of the End 2

Walnut and Iris were alone when Morgan walked away and took their seats off when Takumi finished his lunch first and went to the bathroom.

"Mr. Walnut. Can I ask you a few questions?

Iris, who stopped his hand from eating his lunch sandwich, questioned Walnut, who was drinking juice with a happy look on his face as soon as possible after lunch.

"Mm-hmm. What's going on, Iris?

I asked back to Iris, who had spoken to me once the walnut that had taken his mouth off the straw had changed, and he put his mouth on the straw again and started drinking juice.

"What do you think of Takumi in a romantic sense?

"Buffoo!?

To a sudden unexpected question by Iris, Walnut turned back and listened with an upset look as he wiped the seeping tears with his back of his hand.

"Ho, ho... Oh, no, the... even if they say it's romantic... Because I've never thought about it before... Oh, yeah! What about Iris?

"Is that me? I like it. About Takumi."

"Huh!? Ah, ah..."

Walnut smiled and answered without any shame. He dyed his cheeks red with his mouth puckered without being able to look directly at Iris, hiding his face with his muffler.

Iris asked Walnut with a serious look again, smiling bitterly at such a walnut.

"Don't you like Mr. Walnut, too? I thought you would return it immediately..."

Walnut then lowered the muffler to his eye and lowered his gaze to ask himself a whisper and start answering him to whine.

"Ugh... I've never had this conversation before. I don't know what feelings I like as heterosexual......? I've heard of romantic feelings and stuff because I've thrown myself into battle as an adventurer before, but honestly you're not sure..."

"Ah, I see."

Iris shrugged unintentionally at Walnut's words, and Walnut continued the conversation with a bitter smile.

"Besides, Takumi says she'll look for her father and go back to her old world. When the time comes to break up, it gets extra hard, so maybe you've unconsciously tried not to think much about it before."

Walnut, with his eyes down and a lonely look on his face, finished talking and exhaled, took the straw and drank the juice left in the glass all at once and placed the glass on the table, and when he took a breath, he turned his eyes to Iris and asked back.

"Since when do you like Iris?

"Right ~"

Iris looked to the ceiling as he remembered, then nodded alone and began to look at the sandwich and talk.

"Am I about when I start throwing parties and have more chances to talk to Takumi...... I've been more aggressive since Takumi told me not to regret fighting Bundersnatch before."

"Hee ~! Takumi said that! I don't hate that idea either."

Walnut smiled with a gavel at Iris, who dyed his cheeks and spoke as he remembered that time.

And then Walnut and Iris blossomed in Girls Talk until Takumi returned for a while.

- Whoa, whoa.

Meanwhile, a line of Astrea Saint Knights, led by Morgan, vice chief of the Knights, who broke up with Takuhai Tata, had taken about three hours to arrive at Ende village in Deprafan just when the yang began to set.

Except for two members of the S-rank adventurer and Morgan, who were allowed to keep an eye on the village and organize supplies from Astrea, the three Morgans went into the inn Flower Bird Festival Moon.

When I opened the door, there were already more adventurers gathered than S-rank such as Ark and Fine.

When Morgan came in, everyone stopped talking and turned to Morgan silently.

And then Morgan sat in the most empty seat in the back and glanced at the adventurers who were paying attention to himself before starting to talk.

"You kept me waiting. I am Morgan, Deputy Knights of the St. Knights of Astrea. Quick, but we'll talk about this crusade on Goblin Road now."

After that, Morgan and the others continued to discuss this crusade on Goblin Road with their opinions until it was time for an operational decision.
