Riot Grasper

"- Me too...?

Rim's cat ears shake fuzzily by taking a trick to tilt his neck.

The figure already appears to be in good physical shape, but Mr. Arnold is in bed, lying down in a sleeping roll.

- I went back to the full Oyaji Pavilion once after passing the exam and was visiting the room where the rims were staying.

To convey what Marita told me to come to the Lordship Hall.

By the way, I'm not exposed to this kind of appearance by eating big booze about Mr. Arnold still sleeping.

At the booze table in the past, he leaked that Rim was still doing things around the side sometimes to be done at night.

I'm sure you didn't sleep around till this morning, did you? It's okay... I know.

"Guuuuuuuuuuuu..."

………

... Well, I can't even take Rim on my own, but it would be pathetic to wake him up.

Eventually, we asked Mr. Frois, who was on the ground floor, to give us a message and we took him to the Lordship Hall.

It is possible to get around Luke even in the whole city, but since there are so many people and I can't get out of speed, I decide to head there on foot.

"- Looking up close, it's still splendid ~"

"Beautiful."

Built near the center of the city, the Lordship Hall is built on a white tone and serves as a gateway to a number of white Asian columns like those found in the palace.

On both sides of the main door, which serves as the front door, there was also the appearance of a guard, who was called off as a matter of course as he approached him with a slightly nervous face.

When I give Marita's name, one of the guards pulls into the hall for confirmation.

Waiting all the time... it was the butler of all times who showed his face - Mr. Loggins.

"Please come inside."

Follow the directions and we'll go inside the hall.

You know, it's amazing the house the lord lives in after all.

The floor is polished marble......? carpets are laid over, and in the hallway you can see paintings that are spaced apart and at a glance are expensive, figurines with beautiful finishes, etc.

It is an incredibly stunning space to think of carelessness, assuming you cut out marble with earth magic and bring back a few figurines… etc.

Seeing that the inside of the building is patrolled by guards as well, they seem to be putting a lot of effort into security.

Mr. Loggins greeted those who stood by the door they had reached and went inside the room.

... I described Marita as a French doll living and moving, but all the conditioning and furniture that colors this room is good as if it matched a beautiful doll.

Light peach curtains on the covered bed flutter and shake in the wind from the open windows.

When I saw the wind-blown window, I sat properly in a chair in front of a calm brown desk and caught sight of the girl reading some sort of book.

"- Oh, that was faster than I thought. I heard you were in the middle of an exam."

Marita closes the book she's reading, looks back at this one and says that.

"Yeah, I came after the exam."

"... Could it have fallen?

"We did finish early this time, but we got it right, didn't we? It's still C-ranked."

"Heh, congratulations. By the way... do you know why they called me today?"

I know I'm going to... then.

Anyway, there's a pendant with a familiar rainbow around Marita's chest.

Oh...... a few days free I guess I should have heard the wording of the activation at a time when this was finished as a jewelry.

"So... can you tell me? I like this beautiful rainbow color, so it's okay."

"Dear Marita, that won't protect you."

"... I know."

Since this is entirely my accident, I shall honestly convey the wording of the activation.

I'm very embarrassed, but am I the only one in this world where magic exists to have this kind of shame?

"It's not weird, is it? Sinfo -"

"You don't have to say."

"... it doesn't activate when you put it in your mouth, does it? Unless you're thinking about activating it."

"No, that's not what I meant"

I forcefully block the words that Marita was saying.

"Eh, what the hell is this magic?

"I... can handle ex-magics, so if you think of them as attack magic using them"

As soon as I heard it, the two people were stunned - not that they nodded "I see..."

Is that...? I'm less responsive than I thought.

Wouldn't it be okay if something happened some more?

"No, I'm surprised. There are very few people who can handle ex-magics, and only very rarely do they exist among those who also possess magical qualities. However, I have heard that former magic can be devised by combining attributes because it takes time to improve compared to other magic. I see this..."

You cared about me being a shovon, and Mr. Loggins gives me such a follow up.

It's rare, but isn't it the realization that ex-magics are superior in everything?

Indeed, it is harder than other skills to increase your former magic proficiency.

Normally, would it be LV3 or something even if I was your grandfather? I can cry.

"Hey, how powerful is this? The magic strength of the white demon crystal crushed on the hair decoration seems pretty high..."

Marita asks, making sure to wear a pendant and see the treasure ball.

... To be precise, it was the magic of Healing Light (Light Healing) that I tried to get into my hair decorations.

"The power there..."

It won't be until it's comparable to the magic of LV3 in this rainbow's photosphere alone.

More than that.

There's something I have to tell Marita. It's extremely important.

"Er. I want to say one thing."

"What?

"That hair-decorated white demon crystal wasn't 'shattered' - it was' shattered '"

…………

- Well, it looks like the place has settled down, and I think I'll go home.

When I tried to turn my heel back, Marita would call me off again.

"Wait a minute. You didn't come all the way here to tell me what to say."

... Dude, is that a payoff?

But I say no.

"Aren't you guys willing to stop being adventurers and get hired in this house?

Is that how you came...

But I say no.

Surely connecting with great people will be important. But it must not be tied up.

I haven't enjoyed this world yet. An adventurer is a good place to move around freely.

And suddenly trying to hire an adventurer would be a little inadvertent.

... I may have overthought it, but the only time I've had a few days since then was to wash our vegetarian feelings? No way.

"I'm sorry, but I'm not going to stop being an adventurer yet. And the rim..."

When I turn my gaze, I'm swinging my full head to the side.

"Well, if there's anything else I can do for you -"

"Please wait. Dear Marita... Why don't you be honest here?"

Mr. Loggins, who has advanced swiftly in front of us, continues his words as he glimpses Marita.

"Indeed, Mr. Sage is a rare former user of magic… the sword on his waist does not seem to be a decoration either, and he can be considered very good at his youth. Even for Mr. Rim, the Beastman's fighting power can't be alarmed at a young age… but there will be others with the same degree of strength if you don't consider their age"

If you mean the power of Rank D or C adventurers, you certainly would.

"The best reason why Marita is interested in you..."

"Fine, Loggins. Because I say so myself."

When I turned back to Marita, I just blushed my cheeks a little bit and told her why and how I did it with a grunting voice.

"I've never been out of this city. I mean, I rarely go out of this house."

"Oh, but before this..."

"I asked my father to choose his own jewelry at least."

You're a very overprotective parent. From the atmosphere Marita had when she was talking about her father, it doesn't look like she hates it.

"So you don't have many close friends... well, I'm not... so you're the first to be interested in you guys who aren't too far apart..."

I see. Does that mean someone close to their age... wants a friend?

Rim's okay, but I'm six years old.

but... are you much younger than Mr. Loggins or something?

With all those age groups around, it could certainly be a little array.

"I mean, the... for something friendly?

"What. Bad?"

This is a little unexpected.

"It's not bad. But why don't you just say that from the beginning?"

"I... don't know much about the outside world. But I'm going to have learned a lot from tutors and books. I know that adventurers get paid for their requests and live with them. So... I think you should pay me to tell you a lot of things."

Oh, does it feel like I'm stretching out a lot because I just read books at home? Here's one thing, you'll need to say bish.

"You don't incur money when you're a friend."

"Yes... I'm sure you might. So... it doesn't even happen to be a salutation, does it?

Marita smiling with a dust.

Pretty good to say.

When I get on track here and stop saluting, I say, 'You disrespectful man!' Or would Mr. Loggins not slaughter you?

What do you care about this guy? He's wearing a fine sword. Even though I'm a butler.

"... I have trouble expecting an adventure like that, but it's fine as long as I come to talk to you from time to time."

"Yeah, that's enough."

"Even so... it's a lot of over-protection to say very little going out. You don't go shopping with your mother or anything?

Even though he's a lord and busy with his work, he's a mother and daughter and he's going to the city.

"My mother died when I was less than a year old... I think that's why my father cares so much about me."

What shall I do? I stepped through the mines quickly.

My legs are already scratched.

- Then, having managed to successfully change the subject, I decided to tell Marita about a handful of Adventure Tans.

What particularly attracted Marita's interest were the refreshments of riding around Luke and the views of the Powdal Wetlands?

Speaking of rims, I or Mr. Arnold... I rarely move on from myself to talk about anything other than Mr. and Mrs. Dario, but I was seen trying to walk away properly.

Did the common denominator that he was losing his mother make him do so, or did Rim start to recover from the shock of being raided the village, albeit slowly?

It is a pleasure.

The fish I ate in the port town of Pascum was delicious, so I taught Mr. Dario fish dishes, but they don't work very well - and so on, and so on and so on.

It's not Adventure Tan, but I think this is more normal for conversations that a near-age girl does.

Marita seems to be enjoying herself, too, so above all.

Loggins, who is brewing the tea that the maid brought to the room, is also snorting with satisfaction.

By the way, Mr. Loggins has been working for the Lordship Hall for over a decade now, and he says Marita has been taking care of something since she was a baby.

I also serve as an escort because I stand on my arm, and I trust my father next - that's Marita's word.

I wonder if getting along is beautiful - I was thinking of that as I sipped tea with extracted flavor at the right temperature.
