"---- is peaceful. ......

What an uneventful holiday.

Ein was visiting a garden in a corner of the royal capital. The lush foliage that adorns the trees in summer and the sunshine that pours through the intervals.

Ayn wiping the sweat from her forehead.

Small children playing and adults sitting on benches scattered about.

Ayn, also sitting on a bench, looked up at the sky.

'What are you doing?'

Then I formed a shape that looked up at Chris, who was peeking out from behind the bench.

I thought, "Hey, it's peaceful.

It's true that ...... seems to have calmed down recently with the Chuzeid case, and it certainly feels peaceful. ---- Oh, I got you a drink!

She then sat down next to me and handed Ayn a drink she had bought from the stall.

It's a cold fruit water inside.

It was perfect for drinking on such a hot day.

Ayn took a sip of it, exhaled and turned to look at Chris, who was sitting next to her without a second thought.

It's a holiday, and she's not wearing her usual knight's uniform.

The white skin peeking out of the off-the-shoulder clothing is dazzling. The skirt, which reaches below the knee, hides a few thin feet.

You should be able to get a good idea of what you're looking for.

I'm sure you'll be able to find out more about it.

---- They stayed there for a little while without exchanging a word.

The next time they opened their mouths was when they were almost out of drinks.

It's been a month since then.

The recovery is going well, says a letter I received from Rajd.

It is said that recently there have been many fishing trips, and the lack of demons means that the fishing continues to be great.

It is said that the main street will soon finish its reconstruction ahead of the other areas.

It was surprisingly quick, Ein remembered well.

Ah, yes!　I wonder if Rajd is really going to open a second store: ......!

It says it's not finalized yet. But they've already bought the land in King's Land.

Huh. That's kind of a definite thing, isn't it?

I agree. ...... All right, let's get going.

When the drinks ran out, Ayn stood on the bench and offered his hand to Chris.

They dumped the container into the wastepaper basket placed in the gardeners and walked out hand in hand.

The ...... is unconcerned, but that doesn't mean that their identities are not exposed.

You'll be able to see the quality of the fabric of the clothes you're wrapping yourself in as you get closer.

But the design was unobtrusive and blended in with the castle town.

If you notice, you may be attracted by the presence they radiate.

The other time was when someone who had admired Ein or Chris as they passed each other would huff and puff at the look on their faces.

(Surprisingly, it can be anything you want it to be. ......)

This is because this is how we go about the castle town.

It's not possible in the past, but in fact, it seems that the range of freedom has expanded, especially after the Shuzeid fiasco.

All of this is also because Silverado has decided that it's not a problem.

Besides, there was some talk about whether there would be any problem when Ayn went out to the castle town with Krone, Chris, and other times Olivia, but there was also talk about whether or not there would be any apparent problems when he went out with them.

The relationship has already spread openly, and to say it's an open secret is still the same as it always has been.

Nowadays, it seems that you and Chris are closer than ever before ---- and it is only a secret story that is told in secret.

'I'm starting to feel like nothing is more normal,'

"Can you not say something disturbing at ............ abruptly?

Because, you see, it's been like that lately: ....... Just in case you captured it, I'm not looking for anything to happen.

Of course. If I'd thought it, I wouldn't have let you get away with it, I'd have gone back to the castle.

Chris intertwined his fingers to build up the conversation.

As it was, he extended his other arm as well. I surrendered my body to Ayn's hand and started to walk again, keeping a little closer to the distance.

It's probably because of the summer heat, but the closer you are, the more heat you feel.

However, it does not feel uncomfortable.

On the contrary, it's more comfortable.

What shall we do for lunch?

"Is the store?

When Ayn nodded in return, Chris said, "Hmm ......" and started to worry aloud.

But he couldn't think of anything, so he scratched his cheeks and looked at Ayn.

'How about we buy it somewhere and go to the beach and eat it?

"Oh, I agree!　And the weather is good, too.

Yes, yes. So, if you decide to do so, what to buy: ----

They soon stepped into the main street.

The area is crowded with many stalls, which can be very distressing. Moreover, if you have a takeaway, you're even more confused.

But it's a fun problem to have.

The two of us walk down the main street, chatting about nothing at all.

For a while, they continue walking.

Eventually, they decide to return to the store they saw on the way.

I'm sure you'll be able to find a way to make it work for you.

"Master Ayn, Master Ayn,

Stopping, Chris removed her arm from her entanglement and poked Ayn's arm.

She looked puzzled and seemed to say, prompting her to look in a certain direction, and turned her eyes to Ein, "Huh? And blinked repeatedly.

'You're not mistaken, are you?

Yeah. Definitely Roland, but what's up with ......?

There was a werewolf, Roland.

Of course, you've seen him around. But what they were concerned about was the appearance of Roland.

He sat down on a bench at the end of the avenue and was, to put it succinctly, drooping.

He was the only one who looked depressed on the bench.

...... Have you had a fight with Sierra?

I've only heard rumors that Chris's childhood friend Sierra and Roland get along surprisingly well with each other.

Chris told me that he used to go there as an advisor when the black dragon's materials were brought in, and he has been coming to King's Landing ---- frequently since then.

---- it aside.

To be honest, the atmosphere is too grim to overlook.

"Huh ............ how to ............

The two people with good hearing heard the murmur.

They were wondering if they should call out to him or not.

Then Roland stood up.

'I'll have to try my best to find ---- ah, that!

Eyes widened to find Ayn.

He ran towards Ayn unexpectedly, tears flowing from his unreliable eyes.

"Eh, hey ...... hey!

"Mr. Ayn!　I'm sure you're on vacation!　Oh but sorry!　I really need to talk to you!　I'd like to have a word with His Majesty if possible ----, but that was an impolite remark. ...... Sorry... ...ugh!

"Yo ...... I'm not sure, but I think your grandfather had plenty of time to spare in the evening.

"Really!　I don't know if I should be allowed to meet you!

What's the point now? How many times have we met before?

I'll be fine. I'll ask my grandfather to do the same for me, so if you want to come over later in the evening, you can visit me at ----.

Especially when it comes to Roland, Silverado does not take it lightly.

Roland's achievements are obvious, especially considering the plans he is involved in.

'Okay, thank you!　I'll go with Sierra later!

He finishes saying it like a storm and leaves in a flash.

The remaining Ein and Chris are stunned, and they laugh at the fact that Roland's hasty behavior earlier had attracted their attention.

I couldn't ask them why they were in a hurry, but I heard they'd be coming in the late evening, so you can ask them there.

'Chris,'

"Yes, yes!

It's just a prediction, but I don't think he had a fight with Sierra.

............ Actually, I was thinking the same thing.

Once they regained their composure, they began to walk as they had done earlier.

As Ayn escorted Chris.

'Let's play until the evening and then feel like we're going home.

Hearing that, Chris's cheeks broke out in a smile.

'We'll have lunch and then we'll figure out what to do afterwards together.

And then he said in a good mood.
