"Okay, let's talk. But it's not a big deal. I just didn't tell you because it's an extremely personal history. Don't expect me to get excited."

After repeating the preposition in mind, Travis finally began to talk about his own past.

I don't even know who I've been with for fifteen years, an old story before I became an adventurer.

"I was born in a house in Kikori where I make lumber at the foot of Black Sword Mountain... oh, I don't care what my parents do. Because I was born that way, I had the skills to strengthen my flesh early in life."

Physical enhancement skills are fundamental that can be imparted in many professions.

It is said that there is a wide variety of properties and performances, most of which are possible in occupations classified as manual labour.

"Back then, there were some friendly daughters in the crowd. It's commonly known as childhood taming. But at one point, the horse who was carrying Marutai came out excited and threatened his daughter. Sometimes, in front of me."

"It's about you, so I guess I tried to protect you before I thought about it"

"But it didn't work."

Travis shook his head small to the side.

As if to repent (annoying) the events of the distant past.

"In short, I misapplied force. Though I could have thrust it to help out of a rampage horse, I crushed some bones the other way because of it. Maybe it's because I've always been in contact with my sturdy body... but I still can't forget that feeling and that sound."

I guess it was better than being trampled by a horse, but Travis continued, but I still have no hegemony for that voice.

"Nobody blamed me, but I couldn't stand the guilt of leaving my hometown in the name of 'flying a flag in the city'... and then you know it too"

"I see, that's why only young women didn't like it"

I don't know how to handle it, what if I break it - this reason Travis was saying it like a cliche was not the exact one that wasn't wrong.

The book (...) When (...) breaks (...) and (...) and (...) stays (...) and (...) I fear contact because I'm the person whose memory comes back to life, and I don't know how to deal with it again.

"You haven't been home since you became an adventurer?

"No, I'm back once as soon as I'm promoted to A-rank. That girl was young and a good mother, too. I thought it would improve somewhat if I made sure of it, but in the end, nothing changed."

You mean, contrary to me, who couldn't go home until the problem was solved, but it didn't go as expected, though I went home to solve the problem?

Travis exhaled for a long time, leaving his large body behind his chair.

"I thought I'd have to do something someday. But it's easier for me to be conscious. If you realize it, it's not like this."

"Are you going to take advantage of this to get used to it?

"You can't let your strange daughter hang out with that. I'm sorry, but under these circumstances, the load is too much for me... Tell him. I can reveal everything I told you."

Damn, he's still a weird, responsible guy.

He sees it as dishonest to even think about taking advantage of this opportunity to overcome his bad.

My consciousness is easier said than done, but I wonder if I could ever get used to it because of this.

"Okay, I'll tell him that."

"I'm sorry. Still, I'm glad you're in the brokerage. If he came to see me all of a sudden, he might not have been able to respond calmly."

"Maybe not, no doubt about it"

The sight seems to come to my attention.

There was no Layla here because she realized she was scared, but even if she said she wanted to be present, maybe she should have stopped at my discretion.

Well, that didn't happen in real life, so it's just a story of overlapping assumptions into assumptions.

"Not in a bad way, but I guess if I was used to women as much as you, I wouldn't have bothered you with this either"

Travis has a look on his face that looks like he's tired a lot or neat to say it all out.

"Bad listening. I'm not playing that much. Especially in the last few years."

"It means relative to me. But to be honest, I'm surprised you're still single. Unlike me, I thought I'd harden myself sooner."

"... don't be impotent with him because he doesn't have any outstanding skills."

Suddenly the talking spearhead turned to me, so I clouded my words.

(...) or (...), and (...).

Both are in the past.

There was only one skill that went through an unparalleled change, and now that I've changed my main business, my rank as an adventurer makes no sense.

And above all...

"... uh, yeah... I heard what you were hiding, and you've known each other for the longest time except for the folks back home..."

"Hey, what's the matter, what's the profound thing about it? No way Luke, you..."

Travis opens his eyes and embarks on himself.

It was something that would still have to be kept secret, but I can deduct as much as I want from continuing to hide it without saying anything in this situation.

"I can't tell you the details yet, and I want you to keep it a secret, but there's a guy I'm dating who assumes he's going to consolidate himself in the future."

"What...!

I almost screamed out loud by accident, Travis, but I swallow my voice at you.

And he shook his shoulders for about a few seconds like this to indulge in surprise revelations, regaining as much calm as possible, before again showing modest reactions.

"... is that true!? That's my first ear...!

'Cause we haven't revealed anything but each other yet.'

"I don't think so, but who are the daughters of the weapons store?

"No, at least they're not the ones you think of."

I'm never lying. Because Garnett isn't supposed to be included in the face that Travis thinks of as the daughters of the arms dealer.

"There are all kinds of situations, and I still can't tell you who they are. Still, it's just that I keep my mouth shut to you in this flow... huh?

"... right"

Travis put his arms together and thought about it for a while, eventually looking straight at me with a serious face.

"If you cared about me, trusted me, and revealed a secret, it was that if you didn't respond, the man would have abandoned it. Let's promise never to say anything else. And let me bless you with all my might at dawn."

"Hi, can you help me bless that hand someday?

"Mm, gu... don't expect me to wait too long"

Travis is said to be poked at the weak spot.

Seeing that same reaction, I couldn't help but leak my voice and laugh.
