"It's easier to match standards."

I finished my meal and the Gras lair that Citrie showed me was mostly with what I stayed at Elan.

Exactly a little different in appearance, but the interior, room structure, etc. are amazingly consistent with Elan's room.

For a long time, Citrie had a strange obsession.

But that bundle of keys... it's not just the number of keys that have a safe house, is it?

Just a look, but it wasn't ten or there. It's only been about five years since I became a hunter. If we had so many safe houses in five years, Citrine's hands-on would be unusual. And worrying is also abnormal.

The brand new lair is still like Elan, with no signs of routine use. Liz tells me like she's stunned.

"Bad taste... Sito, are you doing something you have to hide so badly?

... Well, I don't want to hear more about it. It's about Citrine, I'm sure you've got it all figured out for everyone.

So this is how it's helping me now...

Citrie winds into the house in a tight motion when she brings in her luggage and checks the room. When she moves, all I can do is sit down. [M]

Tell Citrie to make some tea and talk to the public.

"Twice in four and a half days, or... same pace"

"Pace is... well, there's plenty of danger in saying it's a big country"

Regardless of the emergence of thunder elves, every country is plagued by demons in this day and age. Zebuldia regularly mistakes the surrounding demons in the big countries, but still also patterns like Elan.

One of the reasons treasure hunters with force were developing, as was the adventure of The Mourning Ghost, about half of which was fighting demons.

"So-so. Klee, I'm bored because there aren't many demons out there when you're gone..."

"... it's a coincidence"

I have trouble being told like that is my fault. [M] I'm not purposefully storming for danger.

"Yeah! Gu-tin! What the hell!

But this trip is going pretty well. Liz's in a good mood and Luke's absence is working in a good direction.

If Luke and Liz were all there, they would undoubtedly have tried to go hunting a bunch of thunder elves and oaks with the feeling that they couldn't contain them and even go for a walk.

Liz hips down next to the sofa in momentum, turning her arm around her neck. Sticking together is a sign of stress. The intensity of the skinship is a problem, but I think it's better than coming back with blood back.

I want Liz to feel the beauty of peace on this trip.

But more than that, it was about Tino.

The master doesn't seem to care, but he doesn't seem well enough. You're not sleeping. There's a much darker neighborhood under your eyes, and you look pale. My eyes are also congested.

Consciousness is much more scattered. When I had lunch at the right place earlier, it was slow.

I am in a serious condition in a solo hunter who needs to be careful when managing his physical condition. Even now, I'm staring out the window standing, not lowering my hips.

I should be stopping training and always keeping my tough Liz down, but I don't seem to enjoy vacation very much.

... Well, because the members are Citrie, me and Liz, I don't have to wonder, but the vacation is just beginning, if the current situation continues like this, it could fall.

This would be where I, the master of the clan, would take my skin off.

"All right, Tino. Let's go eat something sweet together."

"... Huh?

Tino looks back at this one and opens his eyes. The movement is also considerably slower than usual.

My prediction is that Tino's ill health is caused by tension. Twenty-four hours. Horrible sister and (in a way) horrible citrie. If you're surrounded by your sister, you won't have time to rest.

Otherwise, there's no way a hunter used to wildlife is going to be sleepless to the point where he can't rent a bed. I can't be poor.

Let one end Liz and Citrie go and get some rest. It might be a good idea to hear your troubles at last. It's rather suspicious if I can come up with a solution, but I can introduce someone who can.

Listening to my words, Liz, who was stuck in a good mood, clearly fades away. The look on Citrie's face was also cloudy for a moment, returning to her usual grin.

Both Citrie and Liz didn't like sweet things.

"... erm... the..."

Tino alternates between your sister and me with an uneasy look. Your sister held me in silence as if in protest. [M]

Liz and Citrie don't like sweet things. I don't just like that either. I don't like it.

He has the same look when he really needs to eat, so when I go out with Liz and the others, I don't have to go out for sweets. I drink the fucking unsavory potion fine, so my taste is probably developing in a strange direction.

Liz protested for a moment, but when she made sure I couldn't break it, she flipped over and turned away.

"........................... why don't you go?

"!? Um... your sister..."

"............................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................. That's about it, you know."

Tino opens his mouth and is surprised that only a young, deserted master knows.

Liz said something nice with her mouth, but she had a slight glance over here. I won't stop going with those eyes...

"Um... Citrie, your sister..."

Then Tino peeps at Citrie.

Citrie had the same grin on that little animal-like gaze as usual.

§

"Well, kids like Tee, Klee's not interested either... it's not a date, it's just an escort. Tee, I know you do, but don't get me wrong because Klee is sweet. Because I'll work you up physically and mentally so you won't be in that state again when I get home."

"I'll coordinate it for you. Because even though you're an escort, the same outfit as usual can hinder you...... because it's a disgrace to Klee, who's taking you when there's not much difference between Klee's outfit - it's not good for Klee or Tee to have legs out. Regardless of their perception, their gaze around them..."

I can be ready while I say goodbye. Tino's appearance as he came out of the bedroom had changed.

A long grey coat that I don't think is a bandit, with a short sword that sneaks down to my waist to hide from it. The usual outfit with exposed legs and shoulders only looks like a bandit, but what a hard way to describe this outfit. For some reason, the ribbon that binds my hair has also changed from red to white, and the neighborhood that was under my eyes for what I did has disappeared beautifully.

I laugh at my gaze like Citrie's just a little troubled.

"This area was the limit in terms of guarding and concealing identities. Because if you make it into personal clothes or skirts, it's like a date. I'm sorry, but just as discreet as Mr. Klee's treasure trove, there are few pieces of equipment... and the gear is minimal. If you can follow me..."

"It's okay. I'll be back as soon as there's a problem."

On the other hand, unlike Tino, who needed to be ready, I'm dressed as usual - fully armed.

From the toe to the top of his head, he is armed with treasure pieces that the Clan's Magic Instructor powdered and recharged himself with. Not yet, but even if something were to happen, I would be able to protect Tino and come back here.

"Mr. Klee, I know you're okay...... you can't get your hands on my tee because of how cute she is, right?

Say it in a tone that Citrie joked about.

I don't know what you think I am... I guess it's just a joke, but if I say that, Tino might shrink.

Then Citrie changed her gaze from me to Tino's, frowning, and said with a smile.

"Tee, listen carefully? If you get your hands on my Klee... I'll make sure you never think of anything unnecessary like that again."

Tino trembles as surprised by Citrine's imminent act.

It's impossible for me to get my hands on it, but vice versa. What are you thinking?

"Klee, come back as soon as you eat, okay? And then we can start over a date together?

"I will prepare dinner and refill the food. I'll make sure Tee sleeps well. Come back soon, please?

My two anxious sisters dropped me off, took Tino, who was unreliable at what time, and I rolled out to some frivolous town.
