Eventually I arrived at the Inn Town.

It is a relatively large city, crowded with merchants and travellers, as it is at a point where multiple streets meet.

The sun was already falling and I was planning on staying here for the night.

"Welcome! Five, right? There are only two rooms available, are you okay?

When I entered the inn, I was only ten years old or the pretty apron girl there greeted me.

"Oh."

"What will you do with your meal?

This inn seems to be a dining room and tavern on the ground floor.

"Then why don't we ask for a meal?"

The dining room wasn't that big, but it was crowded there.

From what I've seen, it looks like this girl is the only one on the payroll, working hard as she comes and goes between tables many times with her little body.

I calmed down to the table seat at the back and asked her to order it for me as she brought the water.

When she finished taking the order, the girl was crossing the store on a small run and telling it to the kitchen behind the counter.

"Lady, please replace the water"

"Yes! Immediately!"

The guest asks for it and the girl with the water drain rushes to pour it into Kara's cup.

... That's pretty tough.

"Hih?

That's when you slipped your legs, the girl fell.

A waterfall strikes the universe and, unfortunately, to the head of a nearby guest.

"What the hell!?

A large quantity of water was caught from his head and the customer sounded angry.

He's a good adventurous man in Gatai.

Suddenly she was yelled at by such an opponent, so the girl shook her shoulder in dismay and desperately lowered her head.

"Oh, I'm sorry, I'm sorry!

Even worse luck, the guy seems pretty drunk,

"Ew! I'm sorry, huh? The world is sweet enough to just apologize."

"Shh, excuse me!

"If you think it's bad, why don't you show me that in your actions?

"Ko, act...?

"Ihihi, you look pretty cute, huh? Yeah, well, if you apologize to me physically, you can forgive me, okay?... Ew."

Whoa whoa whoa whoa whoa whoa whoa whoa whoa whoa whoa whoa whoa whoa whoa whoa whoa whoa whoa whoa whoa whoa whoa whoa whoa whoa whoa whoa whoa whoa!

"Oh, I can't do that..."

When the girl was frightened but clearly refused, the man's eyes suddenly set.

"Ahem? You can't listen to me, you little brat!

And wave your fists up. Hih, and a girl meditates her eyes.

But the man's fist never waved down.

"It's unacceptable how drunk you are to raise your hand to a girl."

Krusche grabbed the man's arm and stopped him.

"Huh!?

The two have different statures than twice.

So is the thickness of your arms.

But the man's arm didn't move.

It is clear from the exuberant muscles that we are putting a lot of effort into it.

Yet Krusche has a cooler face, squeezing up the man's arm with only a grip.

"If I were you, I'd deal with you instead of that kid?

When Krusche stares lightly, the man wakes up drunk or his blushing face turns blue this time.

"Damn!

Throw it away, the man tried to get out of the store.

"Wait. Pay properly."

"Wow, I know!

When I stood up and pointed out, I threw more money on the table nearby than I had eaten, and then the man left to run away.

... Not at all.

Because you're drunk, you're an adult with no sense in losing your mind.

"Isn't that an oversized boomerang?

"Thank you, brother"

"Oops..."

Kursche, thanked by the girl who helped him, Ugh, she pulled her cheeks.

These days she's getting the impression that she's just stretching her hair a little bit or quitting wearing a complete male outfit, which is giving her a girly look compared to before.

Especially when I'm in the dorm room. I dress like a girl of my age already.

That's why I seemed shocked to be called your brother.

Well, it's a traveling masculine outfit now, and I won't have a choice.

"Ugh... I knew it was my chest... it's because I don't have a chest... I need you to rub it more and make it bigger..."

No, I should have already rubbed it quite a bit...

Unfortunately, in the case of Krusche, I wonder if no more enlargement is expected.

And then I rubbed my butt more than my chest if I could (r y

Looks like it's past its peak, when the store has been relatively rinsed.

An earlier girl came and thanked me again.

"Yeah, fine. That's better than that. After that, help your father and mother properly."

"Because I'm the only one..."

As Krusche stroked her head, the girl lay her face down somewhere spicy, even as she looked at it.

The cooking seems to have one paragraph better, and the girl's parents are coming there.

"Thank you so much for helping my daughter. I'm understaffed right now, and I've left all the customer service to this kid... On the contrary, there are times when we in the kitchen don't even notice if we have tomorrow's problems."

"Yeah, it's not your fathers' fault."

The girl shook her head left and right as she sifted.

I try my best not to make you worry, or I smile.

To such a healthy daughter, her father dropped his loving gaze before

"Actually, we have another daughter - this kid's sister. But..."

It was only a few days ago.

When I went out to buy ingredients, they said they were missing.

She was seventeen, five years older than the girl, and until then, the store had turned smoothly, even at its most frequent times, because she had been providing customer service.

"... maybe he was stripped by bandits..."

Recently, kidnapping women and children seems to have a vicious band of bandits selling them off to slave traders.

He's making a request to the Adventurer Alliance, but you think he can't really grab his tail?

"Lucas."

"Right...... Ireira, how much longer is it going to take to get to Raas? Or does it seem okay to stop by?

"Yes! So far so good, and I was wondering if I could afford a few days!

When I nodded back, Krusche told the girl.

"Don't worry! We'll take out the bandits!

"Really?"

"True! You were watching, weren't you? I'm pretty strong when I look like this!

"Yeah, brother, he was so strong!

"Oh... Oh, and my brother over here is amazing! What a hero!

No, because you're not.

When I heard he was a hero, the girl sparkled her eyes.

"Uncle...... not, brother, you're a hero. Why are you so awesome?

I don't care about your uncle.

"Uh... well, that's the place"

I can only affirm that when I am turned to such an anticipating eye.

"Wow!"

"So leave it to us! Because I'm sure I'll get your sister back from the bad guys!
