"Congratulations!

When I visited the guild because we needed to talk, Natalie welcomed me with a smile.

That's the kind of smile that makes this one feel happy watching.

Was there something good going on?

But congratulations......

I wonder what that means?

"Hey, what's up? Every celebration?

"In one thing the other day, can I get paid or something?

Canade and Tania asked about that.

"No, that's not what I'm doing for the day. Oh, I get paid."

"Really?

"Of course it is. To the arrest of the evil lord, the crusade of the devil tribe. It's all about the guild's existential significance when it comes to doing nothing while achieving all this."

"Hey, Rayne. Can I get a bunch of money? Can you get enough fish to eat?

"The reward is, what, thirty gold coins!

It was quite a lot of money.

I'm happy with the unexpected income, but suddenly, so I don't really feel it.

"Is that why you were called to the guild?

"Oh, excuse me. I missed the point."

Mr. Natalie moved back once.

A little bit, I'll get the paperwork back in my hand.

"Uh, koho"

"Yeah?"

"Congratulations!

Natalie repeats the same line.

As we are all in Kyoton, I smile and tell you as I show you the paperwork with the Alliance Master's signature on it.

"This time, Mr. Rain's Adventurer Rank has been increased to C!

"Huh!?

Guys, it makes me look surprised.

I think I look something like that, too.

"Eh, Rank Up..."

I stick around and ask back the same thing.

"Before this, I think I just got an e-rank... or what's the D-rank?

"Nyah, you're flying one"

"Are you a flying class?

Canade and Sola assume that.

That's right, so Natalie smiles.

"Normally, it's impossible… this time, special provisions have been granted"

"Why again?

"It's not just about arresting lords, it's about crusading demonic tribes worth A-rank. We can't treat it like an E-rank while we accomplish all this feat... or just putting it up in the D-Rank isn't a reward worthy of merit... After all the discussion, I skipped the D-Rank as a special case and ranked it up to C."

"Oh, I don't know, Rayne, that's amazing!

"Hmm, that's my husband. I have a high nose, too."

"Would you like to celebrate, Sola suggests"

"It's a hot dog party!

"... oh, well... Rain"

Everyone celebrates to each one of us.

I'm more than happy with that word.

"Thank you. Thanks to everyone."

"Ha-ha-ha."

I'm so glad I met everyone.

What if I was alone?

What if I can't meet everyone?

... It's scary to just think about it.

I may not have been able to stand on this spot right now.

……

"Yeah?"

When I realized, Natalie was staring at Nina.

Notice that gaze, Nina hides behind me.

I hear there's something familiar about it.

"What's wrong with you?

"Also, you have more new kids..."

"Hmm? Oh... this is Nina, who was one of us the other day. Here."

Encourage Nina to step forward and say hello.

I feel a little like a father.

"Uh... here it is... Nina..."

"Oh well, cute"

"Ha..."

Nina turns red when she says she's cute.

It seems that such a trick will sow again, making Mr. Natalie even nicer.

"I mean... if you look closely, is this child, a Divine...?

"... n"

"Are you serious... Wow, I treated you like a child. Wouldn't it piss you off...?

"Oh, no... I won't, will I...?

"Huh."

Mr. Natalie gave me a tranced look.

"Or it's cute...... I want to hug you"

"I want to hug you too..."

"Ugh... that's an irregular cuteness"

I even mentioned something weird to Canade and Tania.

Is this Nina's special ability, too?

... don't you?

"Because Nina is still young... no, but if this is all cute... Mr. Rain"

"Yeah?"

"Mr. Rain, do you like little kids?

"What are you talking about?

Mr. Natalie broke.

"Ko, koho. I'm sorry, I'm asking you something weird."

"No, well, that's fine..."

Speaking of which, I didn't visit the guild just to talk about this.

I also remembered this errand.

"By the way, Mr. Natalie. Did you find out anything about the demons the other day?

Suddenly, Edgar mutated into a demon clan.

I thought the guild might be grasping something about the cause...

"Sorry...... nothing about that"

"Oh well..."

"The content alone, in collaboration with the Knights, is doing everything in its power to investigate… the suspect is unable to listen in a state of cardiac loss, and this is a difficult situation"

Later I found out...

Though Edgar took his life, he was branded a criminal and fell all the way down, which made him sick.

I deserve it, so I can't sympathize at all.

Nevertheless, it hurts not to be able to listen.

Where did you get that ring?

For once, they kept the report, but they can't get a clue.

I thought if I could hear that, I could figure out the full story of the case...

"Nevertheless, I was wondering if such incidents would ever happen that way. Even the Alliance is raising its alert level, and rest assured"

"I hope so."

Natalie is right.

It's rarely possible to be involved in a demon race.

That's supposed to be...

Also, the same thing could happen.

I might be attacked by a similar threat.

I had such a hunch.

"Nevertheless... Mr. Rain's party has been quite a crowd too"

"Kana."

Me, Canade, Tania, Sola, Luna, Nina.

Six in total.

Natalie was right, it was such a number of people.

It's time to think about the inn...

Then.

Why don't you ask Natalie?

"I need to ask you a few questions, okay?

"Yes, what is it?

"As you can see, that would be quite a number of people, wouldn't it? I was thinking about the inn, and I was wondering if there was any good way."

"I see."

Natalie does what she thinks...

A little later, I opened my mouth.

"Then why don't you buy a house?

"Home?

"Some of the parties are buying houses as their base."

"But it's expensive, isn't it? I'm saving a lot of money, but it's just..."

"I don't think renting would be a problem. If we were to have a base, we would get a grant from the guild… I was wondering if we could borrow it for a long time if we could combine the rewards of the previous case."

Adventurer parties above a certain rank often leave the city and go away.

Sometimes they settle elsewhere as they are.

In order to prevent that from happening and to stop the adventurers, the Adventurers Guild apparently decided to issue a grant.

I heard an explanation that...

"What do you think?

I can't decide on my own.

See everyone.

"Home? Our house?

"If you are based in this city, you will have the condition that"

"I think I'm good. I like this city and... the house with Rain, the fun" "

"I don't care if I'm with Rain or anything... I think I'll have a more comfortable life than Inn. I'll agree with you."

"I also agree with Sola. I think having a base helps a lot."

"Hmm. I wouldn't disagree either. Or I agree. Pick the castle I deserve!

Decided unanimously.

So...

"Then I'll try to find a home"

"" "" Ooh!

"Ooh... ooh..."

Canade, Tania, Sola and Luna scream well...

Nina followed her a little shy.
