Leaving the house where I spent eighteen years.

I was happy when my parents were there.

It's been hard the last few years, but now I'm happy again.

Put your hands on the door and say goodbye to your parents once.

I resented you for being honest.

But you left me this house so I could live.

Most importantly, now I'm happy only because my parents raised me.

Now I'm just thankful.

I made you worry, but you're okay now.

Get your hands off the door and exhale.

Determination is at last made.

All you have to do is shape it later.

"Okay, let's go."

"Yes, Lord"

We packed the big backpack with what we needed, and we left the house behind.

Walk the dim path while the sun is not yet completely up.

It was a little foggy and kind of fantastic.

Sleep like mud, wake up every day working repeatedly.

I couldn't afford to worry about the landscape.

Walking around, I still think it's a beautiful town.

I haven't told anyone in town I'm going on a journey in particular.

I asked you not to tell Mr. Gagan either.

I left a note on the door for once, so it will be fine.

I would not return for the time being, but I had decided that I would definitely return again.

We just got to know each other because we're a little lonely, but we can't even relax.

Because there must be someone who wants help.

Far away, I saw a shadow at the entrance to town.

I didn't know anyone was up so early.

Maybe the delivery guy who delivers the information magazine.

I wanted to travel quietly if I could.

I'm sure everyone must be mistaken and apologized for.

We're leaving because of ourselves.

I've left my thoughts behind.

Besides, it's not a lifetime goodbye.

I'm sure we'll laugh and see each other again.

Well, let's meet lightly and do it.

We don't stop, we head straight to the town entrance.

The cobblestone makes a knack and sound.

For the time being, Shiraku is also saying goodbye to this sound.

At that time the wind suddenly blew hard and the fog cleared up.

"What..."

The fog clears and at the same time the sunlight illuminates the path.

At the end of the road, there was a large number of people.

More than a thousand people split left and right, and they were all staring at me.

I get goosebumps on my own and my eyeballs get hot.

Still, I don't stop walking, I walk firmly forward.

Levi was perfectly beside me, too.

When we get to the entrance to town, Mr. Gagan shows up all the time in his usual condition.

I told you not to tell...

"Bad Lord. I wouldn't have shut up."

That's what Mr. Gagan says and laughs nicely.

"Don't tell me... Didn't I tell you"

"Ha! Is that why you apologized? We're all still short. I haven't given it back to you. This town would have sucked if it hadn't been for the extermination of Warwolf. Honestly, I might not have been able to protect this town with just me and the other adventurers. You saved this town as well as your parents. This town has done terrible things to you, including me..."

"No... you've returned enough. It's been hard for me for the past three years for sure... but it's okay because I'm happy now. So I don't resent or hate you anymore. I like this town. I'm sure I'll be back."

"That's why you're so cool."

When I overheard the applause someone inadvertently started, it became a performance that echoed into town in an instant.

There were no more words, and I felt like I had all my thoughts in the sound of pounding with those hands.

I've been slapped in the heart and body before.

That's a negative emotion that denies everything about me.

But slapping me now is a vibration of gratitude.

I held my fist to the sound of my chest trembling.

"Whatever we do, we can't give you everything back. I did something that heavy. So at least I want to help your future. Take it."

When Mr. Gagan signaled, a fine carriage pulled by a successful horse appeared.

If I were to buy it, the two together would look like 5 or 6 million gold wouldn't go down.

"Uh... this..."

"It's from everyone in town. If I could be your leg, I wouldn't be so happy. Please, use it."

That being said, when Mr. Gagan lowered his head, everyone in town lowered their heads simultaneously.

I'll stop it in a hurry, but nobody's going to get one head up.

"Wow, I get it! Okay, so I'm going to take your head...!

"All right! Everybody succeed! I wondered what I would do if they refused. Hey guys!"

Haha, and the laughter wraps around.

Good. Better this way.

I'd be happier if you laughed.

"Damn... they did it"

"Ha! But... feelings are real."

"Yes, I know. Let me use it."

"Oh, by the way, the horse's name is" Vandemion. "It is the name of the legendary country that once lived in this land. Isn't that cool?"

Me and Levi face each other.

And I laughed out at the same time.

"Hey, what is it? No...?

"Haha...... no, the other way around. It was my best name, so thank you."

"Really...... I got a horse with a great name. Thank you, Master Gagan."

"Ooh! Good for you!

Pack your bags in the carriage, and we'll both get in.

The sun is already completely facetious and illuminating the world.

Really... made the best trip.

"Thank you all. I will definitely go back. Just one more favor."

The people of town listen to me in silence.

Will you fulfill it and ask me in a true sense?

That's how I get a little nervous. Levi gently wrapped my hands around me.

Thanks to you, I get courage.

I made up my mind and I opened my mouth.

"If someone called incompetent comes to this town... please help him. The man must have suffered. So..."

"You may not deserve to tell us... but I'll take care of it, Lord!

"I will keep that promise! I'm so sorry so far! And...... thank you so much!

"Lord, leave it to me! Because I don't want to think like this again!

"It doesn't matter about incompetence! I'll definitely try to help you!

"If we meet on a trip, here we are! This is the time... we can't go wrong anymore!

"The tender feelings you taught me...... because I will never forget it! Thanks!"

That's what everyone called me one after another.

Good......

The world can change.

"Gentlemen...... thank you......! Then...... I'm coming!!

We run the carriage in great cheer.

The journey to change the world began now.
