Legend

From the day Ilse's revenge ended, a few days...... that morning, a little earlier than usual, Ray one line had come in front of Gilm's main gate.

There's also the figure of Elaine and Arla who don't go out of the marina's house because it's troublesome who they usually ask to see.

"Thank you, gentlemen"

That being said, it is Ilse who bows his head deeply.

To Ilse like that, Ara sounds worried.

"Ilse, are you sure you want to go? If it's good, I can recommend it to Elaine's Knights of Escorts..."

"No, I'll stop it. I'm not very good right now, but I don't have the strength to join the Knights... and most importantly, I want to think about what I really want to do."

With a grin, Ilse tells him so.

A few days ago, I was feeling much better compared to the day after I discussed Ajas with my own hands.

If Ilse had been amazing these past few days alone, she wouldn't have gotten better so far.

That made me feel so much better because my friend who can still forgive my heart...... Ara's presence was huge.

Instead of Ilse unilaterally feeling friendship towards Ara, Ara also values her time with Ilse.

That's why I even invited Elaine's Knights of Escorts to spend some time with her friends.

Arla's position is just that she is the Knights Commander of the Guardian Knights, and it's not a hard story to recommend a rookie to the Knights.

Of course that would be joining the group by Conne, but it's not particularly unusual in Elgin.

But Ilse refused such an invitation from Ara.

He wants to determine exactly what he really wants to do.

I guess that's how Ilse decided to leave the guild in search of what she wanted to do.

"Be careful. I took my revenge because of it. You got hit by bandits and monsters along the way, it's not even a joke. It's a shame Ara lost a friend who was able to make a corner."

Elaine also speaks to Ilse, who exchanged words with Ara.

In the beginning I was a little hesitant to speak from the front with Elaine with the alias of General Princess, but I used to live in the same house for days, gradually but unraveling.

It can be said that only Ilse, who was the cause of this one case, may have retaliation from the back society, has paid off the inn he used to stay in early.

... Ilse had no hesitation about it, just the inn that was with Melan.

It's not that the inn itself was bad, but I guess the biggest bad impression was that there was still Melan.

But there's no such thing as having trouble with the inn.

The guard contacted me that Melan was dead, and the baggage that was already in the room has been sold off and another guest is in.

The room where Ilse was staying also had another guest already staying the day Ilse pulled out of the inn.

Seeking work on additional construction, Gilm is still gathering a lot of people.

For these people, they are very fortunate to be able to sleep in the inn.

Due to the lack of accommodation, there are many people in the Guild who still live in the wilderness, and the area was a problem until not long ago.

Now, several larger huts are to be built near the construction site, where those who have no place to stay are to sleep.

But naturally, there is no reason to have a comfortable night like an inn in such a place, and a large number of people sleep directly on the floor in miscellaneous fish.

You have to prepare your own blankets, and you deserve to eat and do whatever you want.

Most importantly, considering the possibility of someone stealing my personal belongings, it would be a very risky bunk.

But many now even used it, better than it was not even such a place.

Compared to sleeping in such a place, the inn where Ilse was staying can be described as exactly heaven.

"Thank you.... other people, thank you for your help in my hatred"

"Hey, Mr. Ilse! It's time to go, so get ready!

A merchant man, who had various meetings with an escort adventurer a short distance away, waves toward Ilse.

If you're going out of the guild, you can't be alone, naturally.

No, if you're an adventurer with more than a certain amount of skill, it wasn't hard to travel outside the guild by yourself now.

Many have come to or left the Guild due to the impact of the additions, so many of the monsters near the streets have already been defeated.

... So while I'm at it, I can't say I defeated him completely because, like every night, monsters come together from nowhere, in a way that replenishes the force.

Of course the monsters that come are many of them low ranked monsters...... that's what many of them are like goblins and cobolts but some of them are high ranked monsters.

This is why death would not be spared if there were such things as solo adventurers encountering high-ranking monsters, although they are able to move alone.

Even adventurers with more than a certain amount of skill do, so it was too dangerous for Ilse to travel such a place by herself, who had barely experienced battle-like combat since becoming an adventurer.

So Ara asked Elaine for a friend, and Elaine introduced Dasker to the merchant of conscience.

Although Ilse, who had the least experience in combat, could not be hired as an escort and was treated as a guest.

It's not a bad thing that the merchants, though I think Dusker pushed their troublesome opponents......, had quite a bit of an edge with Dusker in one of Ilse's cases.

"Yes, I understand! I'll be right there."

Ilse returns that word to the merchants... and finally bows his head deeply towards the Rays again, leaving the spot.

When I looked back, I exchanged my gaze with my friend Ara only for a moment, but was convinced that I would see her again if she were alive.

That's the same with Ara, waving gently at Ilse leaving, leaving her feeling a little lonely, but ending her farewell to her friend.

That's how the merchant, who put Ilse in the carriage, let the carriage leave when he thanked the Rays.

The adventurers defending the carriage are also a little nervous knowing that it is Ray's acquaintance they escort.

I guess that's what you're thinking, even if you're wrong, you can't hurt someone Ray knows.

If Ilse was acting with the merchant as an adventurer for the escort, it would have been different, but this time it was treated purely as a guest.

And so, you must be nervous.

(I think my friend Ara is more angry than I am if Ilse gets hurt)

Ray also helped Ilse a lot, but he doesn't feel that familiar.

It would still be Ara who feels a strong familiarity with Ilse.

Also, Elaine, Lord of Ara and trapped in the marina's house during the day, talks to nature and Ilse more often and feels quite familiar.

"You're gone."

Elaine squeaks when she sees the carriage headed to the other side of the main gate.

Ara nods sadly at the words.

At the end of the day, I smiled and dropped off Ilse, but I guess it was a shame to break up with a friend.

Originally, Ara's personality is not so easy to make friends with.

It's only Ara's top priority is Elaine, so I guess that's natural, too.

So, Ilse was definitely an obtainable friend to Ara.

You broke up with such a friend, so it would be natural for Ara to miss you.

"Right. But... if you're alive, you'll see me again. Plus, one of these days, Ilse might change her mind and join the Knights of Guardians."

That's what Arla said, but Elaine's Knights of Escorts basically got it all together.

In today's Ilse without combat skills, if you join the Guardian Knights, you won't be considered a combat personnel.

Something like clerical personnel?

Most importantly, the Knights of Escorts lack the human resources in their hands, so maybe it's just fine.

"Right. If he's alive, I'm sure he'll see you again."

Yes, it was the marina who lived for years as a dark elf that told Arla.

In that long experience, Marina's words were strongly persuasive only as a goodbye when she met a number of friends.

"I'm done dropping off Ilse for now... maybe I should get to work. If Elaine and Arla stay here, we're gonna have a lot of trouble, okay? Shouldn't we get back to the marina's as soon as possible?

Vihera, who has no idea what she thinks of Ilse as much as Ara or Elaine, says so and encourages everyone.

In fact, those who pass by the gate are already quite numerous.

Sometimes not so much time has passed since the gate was originally opened, and many people come into or leave the guild.

This is usually the case, so the number of people is even higher now that the construction of the Guild is under way.

If there are celebrities like the Rays in that, it would be natural for those who want to see it at first sight, and most importantly for those who want to be close to them.

Especially now, there's Elaine, a princess general with radiant beauty.

The opportunity to get acquainted with someone who can also be called a symbol of the aristocracy is not.

So many were watching the opportunity to talk.

… Still, I seem to have a degree of separation between waiting to talk until I have an errand to drop you off.

But now that Ilse's drop-off is over, it wasn't strange when those who were watching the opportunity to talk to Elaine and the others were in action. And...

"Oh, isn't that Ray there? And the Vihelas... it's been a while."

Unexpectedly, I can call you that.

Those who peered around for opportunities and held others in captivity try to gaze sharply at the person they spoke to Rays when they were overtaken by such a voice... but the moment they see the person, they will be stunned and open their eyes.

Because the person was a big, muscular man... and for some reason he was wearing thin makeup.

Not very much, but not the kind of person you like to talk to.

Those who have not seen the person for the first time wonder if the Rays will immediately eliminate the man and ignore him.

But those who knew who the person was gave a bitter look.

Why are those around those with that look on their faces? and question.

But the question is resolved at the next moment.

"Hey, Bistol. Long time no see."

"That's right. Thanks for your help before. Thanks to you, I was able to come back to Gilm again."

Those around me give a look like wow... to a guy who closes one eye while saying that.

A man dressed as a woman or a woman dressed as a man is not uncommon but none.

But being like this man was very rare.

"Ray, do you know him?

Normally it wasn't strange how Bistol looked to be pulled, but Elaine asks Ray plainly, without looking particularly concerned.

How strange that is, that's what everyone understood when they saw Ara next door to Elaine with a stunned look on her face.

(Well, I saw someone like Bistol up close right after I went through a breakup with a friend. Maybe it's no wonder this happens)

Ray nods back toward Elaine as she sees how Arla thinks so.

"Oh. That's the guy I met a while ago."

"Alas, the beauty over here... the beauty... eh? Could it be..."

You must have seen Elaine and understood who that person was.

Even Bistol gives me a startled look as to why the person is here.

"Oh, I guess it's just what Bistol expected"

"... oh well"

I guess it was unexpected to encounter Elaine, even a hundred warfare smelling bistols.

Look at Elaine's beauty with amazement.

"Mr. Bistol, it's time to go!?

Speaking up to the stunned Bistol was someone who also looked familiar to Ray.

He's someone I've seen face to face several times about his previous involvement with Bistol.

The other side noticed the Rays and thanked them deeply.

"Ah, alas. Yeah, I'm in a bit of a hurry. … We'll make time again, so let's eat together."

"Uh... right"

Ray nods toward Bistol, and Hugh Ray opens his mouth feeling good.

"You know what a Labourina country is?

"Huh? Yeah, it's one of the subordinate countries of this country, isn't it?

"... right"

To the words, Ray decides to listen to the story later when he meets with Bistol.

What does Ajas think… and the organization to which Ajas belonged?

That's because I really cared.
