Shut-in Magician

Tsuji picked up the carriage and went to the market, and Edra just went down the carriage, wanting to walk around and see it on her own feet.

"I usually get it delivered, but I still want to see it with my own eyes and buy it. Well, fresh fish! Some fruits look delicious."

She said herbs and the like she wanted were not in the grocery store she was asking for, and she was looking forward to going shopping at the market occasionally. It's just that the housekeeper I was offering got sick and he couldn't go out these days.

"If I had a log, I would have saved you because you were also doing this chore. I'm not even willing to hire a replacement, and we're discussing waiting for him to heal."

"Really?"

"Besides, you'll notice, my house is not well on hand. I can't pay much more. Log is a really good guy, he picked up his unfamiliar self so he told me he wanted to serve beside me till he died... you were too sweet for his kindness"

"Now, what are you doing?

"I stayed in the hospital.... I'd like to visit you on the way home from the market, would you mind?

"Yes. So do you also look for sympathy items?

"Yeah, right. Lord Sioux would tell me if I had any advice."

Smile, she walked out.

I was a little uncomfortable with my feet, so I thought I might be rude to the aristocratic woman.

"Well! I can't believe you could escort me to such a lovely night. It's a long life. Hehe."

And he laughed adorably and took my hand.

Walking through the market that way, a familiar called out to me.

"Ooh, it's Siu. Oh, my God, you can't even put it in the corner! Have a date with a beautiful woman."

"Excuse me."

That said, a laugh happened. It was never something I disliked, but rather a smiling atmosphere, and Edra was also hiding her mouth and laughing cheerfully.

Then, if I knew Siu, I could get discounts everywhere. Edra was surprised because she also wore an omelet.

And I look so worried.

"May I? Wouldn't they lose money if you got so much like this?

"Merchants don't do anything to hurt you. Instead, they say it's normal to get the price on the market. They called me a duck because I didn't know it at first."

"What's a duck? I wonder about the birds. Some kind of cipher?

and started explaining from around the corner, shopping in the market became a pleasure.

Then I decided to keep all my stuff because I had a magic bag.

I noticed that because there were occasions when Edra would shy away from shopping. I'm sure he must have had more luggage while the log was there. I guess I caught my mind letting the boy Siu hold it. I thought you were a sweet woman in these places, too.

She said she could walk to the treatment center, so we walked slowly towards each other with one head.

On the way Ferres said several times against slow walking Edra, "Ride?" It was interesting that he was doing the trick.

When we talked about it, Edra turned to Ferres and said, "Next time you wear riding clothes, please."

"Nha."

Fine, answer me, I'm waving my tail. Seemed happy.

Although those roads were pleasant, Edra's face was a little tense when she arrived at the treatment center.

He stops for a moment and eventually opens the front door to squeeze his courage into it.

The smell and air specific to the hospital spread as soon as possible.

When I heard the story at the reception and then headed to the hospital room, Edra's hand was shaking as she opened the door.

Oh, that's what happened, and Siu got sad. Still doesn't put it on my face. Because Edra is patient.

She suddenly took a breath and smiled and walked into the room.

Siu waits in the hallway. She had her souvenir luggage in her hand just before, so there was no reason for Siu to go in, and Edra would want to talk to you alone again.

While waiting in the hallway, the injured children came and watched Ferres faraway.

"Brother, isn't that scary?

"I'm not scared. It's a cat-shaped horseman called Fairacing."

"Mr. Cat!

"Cat! Nyah!

I laughed properly, and it was time to come closer. A big kid is pulling the little one's hand. The little kid, who wasn't good at talking yet, had said it over and over again.

"You can touch it."

That said, roughly, each touched Ferres' ears and head.

These places are just like Aurea.

All the children, curious, have sparkling eyes.

"Nah, nah?

"Nyah!"

Oh, we're having a conversation, and I thought, an adult who was rolling the kids farther out laughed.

"Oh, we're talking. Wouldn't that kid be a tutor in the future to be able to talk to a cat?

"I don't know if my kid's gonna talk."

And so he approached me with a smile.

"I've never seen a riding beast around here before. Thank you, kid."

"No. Play him if you like. I'm fine, too."

When I said that, he wasn't the only one, but other adults came and stroked Ferres and made a noise of chatter.

An official from the treatment center came out, so when Siu apologized for the noise, he waved no.

"This is the place, so you guys really don't smile much. Laughing out loud like this is good for your body, too. This kid is very clean, and I have no particular problem with it.... or may I touch you too?

Apparently.

I nodded with a smile. Speaking of Ferres, he was glad to be popular, shaking his tail loosely with some proud face.

Edra, who came out of the hospital room, was a little surprised by what was going on in the hallway, and then smiled.

Though my eyes were red, I thought I must have been patient because there were no signs of crying.

She didn't say anything and waited for the spot to fit in.

Edra looked very satisfied, although time had passed significantly more than planned when she left the treatment center.

Tsuji, call a carriage, and when you return to the mansion, everyone is waiting in full momentum.

I guess the purpose today was a sympathy, not a buyout.

Edra smiled and nodded again and again at everyone, then looked back and said thank you to Siu and went upstairs.

The baggage was taken out to the place designated by the old butler, who also helped clean it up before signing the request.

I was about to be given a gratuity, but that was a euphemism.

Aside from the job request and the help, the old butler bowed his head deeply and dropped Siu off.

When I handed the requisition to the guild to receive the reward, I headed to the West Central District where Leon would be on that leg.

We found a stall along the way for a late lunch and found a nursing home as we hung out and walked.

"Hello -"

"Oh, what's up?

The cleric came out and responded with a smile.

"I heard you were here, Leon. My name is Siu-Aquila. It's the same class in magic school."

"Oh! Are you Leon's friend? Hey, I've never had a friend at school before. I was so alone, I was worried I might be being frustrated! Oh, good, good."

If I was suddenly surprised by the tension, behind him, I could see a number of peeping eyes.

"Oh, here, you guys! Study! I'm not skipping!

"Aah!"

"Run, you're gonna piss me off"

And it's a fuss.

"If you come with those kids at all. Oh, I'm sorry, uh, Siu, that was you. Leon's going to work right now."

"Really? Uh, actually, I got a request to talk to you here. May I speak to you?"

"Oh, okay."

and to the cleric who undertook with pleasure, Siu explained the current situation of the Adventurer Guild.

"So we don't have enough adventurer hands. Few people originally received the 10th grade rank, so the apprentice child was supposed to do it, but the Central District had a small number of children."

"Oh, that's a lot of merchants over there. A big merchant wouldn't let a kid work, and a little shop kid would make help with the house a priority."

"Leon is getting me a job in the Central District, and the guild says thank you to me for introducing him. That's all that's going on, so I was wondering if there were any other kids I could introduce you to, if you like. I thought it was rude, so I asked directly."

"Oh, well, be polite again. But why are you worried about the Alliance again?"

"... I'm more worried about my client than I am about my guild"

That's how I talked about my work today.

"Originally, the task of cleaning up warehouses and offering women tends to be alienated by adventurers and left behind. Now it's terrible to put a circle on that. It seemed like even the guild's untreated squad couldn't handle it at all, and it was pathetic. Especially if you're old enough, chores are heavy labor, and you don't have enough money to ask a housekeeping guild to hire you permanently."

"Hmm. That's all, imagine, understandable indeed. In other words, even children will be in the workforce, and if they are children, they are apprentices, so even the amount of the tenth grade rank is sufficient? Hmm. These kids have donations to make for their lives, so they can live just like the common kids, but it's a good thing that when you think about the future, you make a place to work."

The clergyman spoke as if he were talking to himself with a big gesture.
