"Uh... I cried. I cried for a long time."

My emotions finally settled when I was about to pass through the "3rd Sanctuary," and I took the handkerchief out of my pocket and wiped my eyes, and then I realized, oh, this is the guy who wiped the lady's tears... and I kind of felt like doing it. The handkerchief is gone.

I just entered "4th Street" using the Count's crest,

"Mr. Jelly, you're here, aren't you?

"Aha, were you aware? Boy's a bad person, too."

Coming out of the shadows of the building lukewarmly was Zelly, the gambling mad cat beast who was also my companion on the journey.

Looks like Mr. Jelly was on guard with that and this from yesterday. I'm not the kind of person who does trouble watching me all the time. I guess today was really special.

"People are worse off looking at Mr. Zelly... I mean, you don't have a hobby. I mean, you used to even put in the Third Sanctuary."

"That's about it, I'll let you in in a little bit. Exactly. 'Second Sanctuary' sucks, so I'm not going."

"Bad security system?

"It means it sucks when you find out. Getting in is well."

…………

Is this country's security system a monkey? Or is Mr. Jelly amazing?

"... what is it, boy?

Mr. Zelli, who is neatly necked....... hmm i figured the security system in this country is going to be better zal......

"Have you ever thought about being rude right now?

"I'm mostly rude when I think about Mr. Zelly."

"Nacho!? I won't listen to you! Even the boy just broke his heart, you idiot!

"Ha ha!? What a heartbreak!?"

"You must be heartbroken! He scorches himself into a fruitless love of different statuses, and ends up saying goodbye —— what an overly easy guy to be in love stories!

"Huh... it's not. The lady, like this... she's the object of her love and nurturing... no one interrupts her, she's free, she has to be saved somehow. Ah, she can't be alone, quiet, rich..."

…………

Mr. Zelly is donning!?

Exactly what's wrong with me waving a "lonely gourmet" story in this world.

"Go, Gohon. For now, that's as a joke, that's not what you do with a lady anyway. I'll see you somewhere else."

"Really? And yet, boy, why are you pushing yourself so much"

"I'm sure you haven't explained much to Mr. Jelly about the situation..."

"Don't you think Dark Hair, Dark Eyes found out and ran away?

…………

How do you know that? A woman's question?

"... Ze, this is more like a risky than Mr. Zelly thinks. So much so that the Duke of Evegne came by just to catch me with a hundred gestures."

"Gee, are you serious? Then I'll be with you. Ah, don't you suck!?"

"Right. Instead, if you leave me alone, you'll be stuck in debt, won't you?

"Daiji-busu! 'Cause next time it's easy to win!

It's a bad idea. This is scum.

While I was weak, I explained how I was today. [M]

"Huh, that's so true, boy"

"Yes."

"Uh and I'm curious... if you were willing to return the lady from the beginning, shouldn't you have brought her from the beginning?

"Oh, yes. Is that how you came?"

"I feel sorry for the Count. Listen to me now."

"In fact, I thought I had to make it hurt for once... that's fine"

"Gee. Boy, you look like a ghost..."

Mr. Zelly made an awesome face.

"I care that you may have hurt your daughter... even me"

"If you care so much about the Count, you should have stayed at the Count's."

"As I said earlier. The Counts can't beat the Dukes. His Majesty the Holy King seems to have put his shoulder in me, but darker hair than I think -- he said something like," Son of Disaster, "but in the aristocratic world, it seems taboo. Since the Count is a man full of heads about his lady, you didn't seem to think much of it until my risk. If the House of the Duke of Evegne had all that rejection, there would be other places to follow."

There's nothing else, Mr. Zelly said-- "I'm first class scared of the guy with power," he said.

You were right about that one.

"Oh. Shall we then leave the country?"

"Right."

Mr. Zelly's tone is light everywhere. Maybe it's easier to live in this world to be that light.

By the time we left to "6th Street," the night had begun to dawn white. When I went to Mr. Zelly's inn, he was so scattered to death that I asked the innkeeper to clean up and give him quite a bit more money. My personal belongings were not in the Count's residence, but only the luggage of one backpack in this room. The baggage at the Count's residence is about the untouched salary I got from the Count, and I said "give it back," so you can leave it there.

This, the clothes you gave me for the escort... I guess I'll dispose of them. He's a little flaky all over the place in the fight earlier.

"By the way, do you have anything ahead of you?

"... yeah, well"

Berserker —— Also, when I opened the leather bag that Uncle Borderline gave me, it contained 4 large gold coins and nearly 10 gold coins. Nobility usually carries so much cash? I mean, the leather bag itself is slippery and so luxurious?

4 large gold coins and 5 gold coins for the same value as 1 holy gold coin, so I would have had them colored.

The clothes I was wearing when I came to the Holy King were not long enough, but I put my sleeves through it. The clothes should be new again.

Weave a jacket and carry a backpack. The dagger I got from Uncle Borderline is a flashy sheath, so I'll keep it in my nostalgia.

"Sounds like you kind of went back four years ago"

Leaving the inn. When I say, Mr. Zelly, who was narrowing his eyes in the morning sun, looks back and laughs nicely.

"What are you talking about? I'm totally in front of you, boy!

"... then come on, stop calling me 'boy', will you?

"Boy can always be a boy ~"

Mr. Zelly reaches out and squeezes my head.

Look, I'm gonna run you through your back one day.

"Soya, boy. Are you leaving the Holy King's capital like this?

"Yeah, you're just gonna get mad when you leave with this."

I smile bitterly and tell Mr. Zelly where I'm going first.

Silver Orange Pavilion.

That "silver balance" party would still be asleep at this hour —— I felt the smoke cooking was rising from homes everywhere and the day of the Holy King's capital, Kruvagne, was about to begin.
