After that, we went to the inn vanillante once and told them about our work together.We decided to leave early tomorrow morning after discussing with our colleagues.Of course, Rammy was accompanied to the inn.Elma asked about Lamy and told her that she would rent out her room immediately, and she finished the shop early today.And that night, when everyone was asleep, I was in Elma's room.

Well, here we go.

"Please."

I've been getting tips for my future journey with Elma's fortune-telling before.I decided to use Elma's brilliant gauge to help me this time.

"Destiny Eye"

Elma closed her eyes and pointed her hand at a clear round crystal ball to reveal a pale glow.It emitted a dark light that was slightly different from the light we had seen before.

"Big tent... forest... dark... huh?... what is it?... ahh!? "

During fortune-telling, Elma suddenly turned her face away from the crystal and fell out of her chair, losing her balance.

Elma!?

I backed my torso reflectively before Elma fell and prevented her from falling.When I saw Elma's face, there was sweat on her forehead and she looked surprised at what she had seen.

"Are you okay!? Why suddenly?"

"Ohh... I'm sorry... I surprised you..."

"Did you see anything?"

"My eyes... many eyes... stared at me..."

"Eyes? Whose eyes?"

"I'm sorry... it was dark and I didn't see it well... but I was a little scared..."

Elma grabs my sleeve and buries her face.I was always so afraid of Elma, an adult woman... that I gently embraced Elma for behaving like a child like Sarah.

"Thank you, Elma. You were scared.Let's get some rest today. "

"Celtic, I'm sorry...."

"It's all right! Now rest well and have a good night."

I gently close Elma's room door.

(In the dark... many eyes... and Elma's way of frightening... must be Elma's trauma or something? So maybe there's something... we need to be very careful tomorrow)

I suddenly bumped into something from the front when I was at home thinking.Poyon and soft, squeeze-like softness touch the face. There are two feelings.

What is this? Soft?

"... Celtic?"

When I raised my face, I saw Lamy's face with long red hair.Am I sneaking around with my thoughts, or am I stuck in Rammy's majestic chest without noticing him in front of me?

"La... Lamy!? What's wrong!?"

"I'm sorry to surprise you... but I didn't sleep..."

"I'm sorry!! I looked away and didn't realize! Um...."

My ears turned red and I tried to leave Rammy in a hurry.But Rammy gently pulls me back to her chest and hugs me gently.

"La... Lamy?"

"It's okay... even if you don't dislike it..."

Lamy's arms are gently warm, and the softness of the big chest she just touched turns into comfort, as if she were in her mother's hand.

"Once upon a time... when I hated and was scared, my mother hugged me like this.I was taught this would relieve my anxiety.When my parents died and Kana came to the store, I was always nervous and unsuccessful when Kana wasn't used to customer service.Then Kana always told me to calm down. "

The words that came out of Lamy felt weighty on the back of the mouth, apart from the gentle tone.Rammy has lost his parents a long time ago.That's why Mr. Lamy taught you what my mother taught me.You treat Kana like a family.....

"Mr. Lamy, you care about Kana."

"Yes, I think Kana only looks like a little bit of a cohabitant to the people around her, but she's my friend who's been working with me for a long time, and she's like the only family."

I felt warm in Rammy's arm for a while, then I walked away from her arm and saw her face.Her eyes are a little moist.I gently touch my cheeks and smile.

"I'll definitely get Kana out.So don't look so sad!Lamy, you always said smiles are important in public. "

"Celtic...."

"I understand your anxiety... but this is the time to smile! As usual! Otherwise, I don't think good things will happen.Smiles call for luck. "

This was the line I was told by my mother in the pre-rebirth world.I haven't laughed much since I was a college student. Since I met them, I've started laughing, and it's as if my life has changed before.I thought I shouldn't underestimate the power of smiles from this feeling.I also believed in the teachings my mother gave me with Lamy, so I told Lamy what my mother taught me.Then Rammy turned down for a moment, but he got back up and showed me his usual smile.

"Thank you, Celt! Isn't it strange that I wasn't smiling when I smiled?This way, Kana will be mad at you too. "

I gently smiled at Rammy and opened the door to Rammy's room.

"Tomorrow is early. I think it's okay now, so why don't you take a rest today?"

Rammy says he understands and enters the room.

Good night, Mr. Lamy.

Yes, thank you. Good night.

I closed the door gently after I saw him wave with a smile.Then, when I went back to my room, I took a little care of the artifact and went to bed.

Early the next morning, soldiers from Liberty Moore Castle brought a carriage to the inn to pull a large load.Six of us and seven of Mr. Lamy's mobile horses came out of the big cargo bay.

"Ahhhh!? A horse!! Seriously...."

While Yushiriz was surprised, I told the soldiers about the horse.

"This horse was determined by Liberty Moore to be necessary for Lord Celt's mobility and was offered as a gift from us."

"Horses... I'm so glad we're so smart... but we've been on horses..."

As soon as she was about to say so, Mr Lamy rode lightly on a horse.

"Mr. Lamy, can you ride a horse!?"

"Yeah, I've been riding a lot.Celtic, don't you have any experience? "

"There aren't all six of them...."

"Oh, it's so easy, I'll tell you!"

An hour before we left, we practiced horseback riding, and as a result....

Skill acquired

Skill Name: [Horseback Riding: Normal]

Type: General

Effects: Grasps basic horseback riding tricks and handles horseback riding skills as well as horses.

"You can finally ride it!!"

After seeing Dan's horse grow bigger and more daring to handle it, and confirming that everyone has acquired the skills, he goes to Elma and Sarah, who were in front of the inn.

Well then, I'm going!

"Yes, take care and go ♪"

"Celtic!!!! I'm not careful!!"

After seeing Sarah and Elma drop off, I'll take the carriage again and greet the soldiers.

Well then, I'll go.

"Ha!! Celtic team, be careful!!"

The soldiers salute in a line.

"Well then, let's all go!!"

All my words signaled the sound of a tall horse and drove the horse.The destination is deep in the woods of the former lost forest, where Bandit is said to be present.Now, let's get to work.
