As Elsa and her parents and daughters continued to argue, a man came from the village on a small run.

"Hmm, looks like you're done. Oh, are you Jin?

That's what I say and smile at. He's also a dog beast, still in his late twenties and a bumpy young man.

(Is that Elsa's brother?

Elsa and the others shouted at each other at the same time before Jin tried to reply while thinking so.

"Dad!"

"You!"

"Heh heh, welcome home Elsa. Miriam shouldn't be unscrupulous either."

The gentle smiling man was not Elsa's brother but his father. He looked young, but his actual age was in his early forties, and Maxim's level is not that high, so this young making seems to be his own qualities.

"Nice to meet you again. This is Elsa's father Maxim. Greetings."

"Nice to meet you. I 'm-"

Surprised by that fact, Jin also hurried back to introduce himself, and Aria and the others finished introducing themselves, just like earlier. It still seemed surprising to me that Touka was Jin's daughter, but it was also above all to Jin that she accepted with a gentle smile.

"Pfft. Then it looks like Miriam's errands are over, and let's just move to our house"

Maxim's liver thickness also seems to be considerable as he cleans up a dueling mock battle in a word of errands.

"Yeah, right. I have to show my son-in-law to my house."

"So I'm telling you it's not!

"What!

"What the fuck!

And following Maxim's suggestion, we were first to move to Elsa's home, but you will admire the fact that Mother and Daughter's contention began again on that road.

"Wow, this is Elsa's house."

"Pretty."

Rachel and Towka whisper. The house was a cozy house in a bungalow, but the orange roof and white painted walls were bright, and the flower beds surrounding it were blooming with colorful flowers. Well maintained and overall pretty impression.

And entering the house did not change that impression, rather small items such as bright colored furniture and curtains were becoming more adorable.

"... you're adorable"

Don't you hate Aria either, say so and loosen your cheeks. And Jin also felt like he saw the roots that Elsa liked to embroider as he grinned at such a group of women and at the house.

"My Miriam likes cute things."

"Hehe, is that right? But it's not just cute, it calms me down."

Miriam, Elsa's mother, is also beautiful, but her warrior outfit makes her feel even rough. So Maxim's remarks seemed somewhat surprising to Jin, but the calm cuteness, not the flashy one in the whole house, was something I liked.

"That's not good enough. That's not true. Rather, sit down. I'll be ready for tea soon."

Was it glowing to be praised, Miriam's face slightly reddish? That's what she said. She headed to the kitchen to escape.

"Pfft. But it's also been a long time since I've welcomed so many customers. Elsa, can you bring me a chair?

"Okay, Dad."

"Oh, I'll help too"

Elsa happily follows Maxim's instructions, and Rachel follows suit to help. And Aria, one step behind, spoke to Touka's head.

"Oh.... Towka is on my lap okay?

"Yeah! Thanks, Aria sister"

"... really parents and kids"

Aria with a gentle smile and Touka answering with a full smile. And with a smile on their faces, Samantha had spoken again of the sentiments she had many times during this journey.

"Thank you."

Not just Aria, but both Elsa and Rachel adore Touka like their real daughters. In tune with Samantha, Jin was also smudging and chewing up that fact.

While doing so, Elsa and the others returned with a chair, and the tea was ready without opening so much between them. Sitting around the table, Jin and the others began to talk about each other's recent developments and so on as they mouthed the tea poured into the adorable cup.

"I wonder what you're doing here. Is this a B-rank promotion exam? It sure was D-rank about six months ago, wasn't it?...... hmmm."

That being said, Miriam turns a meaningful gaze to Elsa, and then goes on to Jin. It is true that this sudden growth of Elsa came after partying with Jin, and the cause is obvious. Because many things could not be said, Elsa opened her mouth on behalf of Jin and the others as they responded with a bitter smile.

"You sure were lucky to meet Jin. Thanks to you, Rachel and Aria were among us, and we had all sorts of experiences. I never thought the labyrinth would appear, but that was lucky too. Thanks to you, I got to the level, and I was able to ask an A-rank adventurer named Mr. Oswald to teach me.... Yep, yep. Of course I met Touka."

Elsa smiled at Aria's lap at the end of the day.

(Pfft.... but I guess I'm just curious)

It also soothes the appearance of a delightfully laughing tortoise, but Jin was only a little concerned.

I'm sure Elsa was fortunate in many ways, as she put it, but I'm also sure she kept trying to make the most of that fortune. I thought I'd mention that, Ginn, but Miriam opened her mouth before moving on to action.

"Heh, is that what the Oz guy is doing now? He got an A-rank too."

"Huh? Does your mother know about Mr. Oswald?

"Oh, you were still B-ranked when I was active. Greg and Gantz used to take care of him. I had a drink with Melinda in an expensive restaurant while they were going to the tavern."

Not only Oswald, he even came up with the names Greg, Gantz and Melinda. Elsa had also been introduced to Melinda by Miriam when she became an adventurer, and although she didn't think she was quite close, she didn't imagine she was that close.

"I heard you knew Melinda..."

"Is that it? Didn't you tell Elsa? Melinda is my best friend. I was partying with you until I quit being an adventurer. Me and Melinda. And Greg and Gantz, and the other five."

At the end of the day I had a little loneliness, but that tone is basically blatant.

(Really, I didn't know)

The facts told were shocking, but Ginn, who was both private and associated with Greg and the others, felt something convincing somewhere. And if so, there was another person on this occasion who could not be merely a bystander.

"You were. Then let me add myself again. My name is Samantha and I'm Greg's wife. Melinda, I'm making it very good for my sister."

It was no exaggeration to say that Samantha could have been Greg's wife thanks to Melinda, and if Miriam was a former companion and Melinda's best friend, she didn't have to hesitate to hold her mouth because she was an outsider.

"Oh, you said you had a pretty sister in a letter from Melinda, but you meant you. I'm sorry I didn't realize that right away by name."

Miriam had also heard that Greg had received a second wife named Samantha, but she didn't think it was herself, she just thought it was the same name. Samantha continued smiling at Miriam, who seemed so sorry.

"No, I see why your sister seemed to have fun before she left"

I guess this is another Melinda prank, too, tear-eyed.

"Haha, Melinda's the same."

I remember the old days and Miriam laughs happily too. Almost everyone on the spot smiled, but there was about one person who didn't feel that way.

"... tell me from the beginning"

I comfort Elsa, who crushes so powerlessly, with Aria beating her shoulder with a bitter smile.

Even if we had listened to this fact before Elsa came to Lienz, that would be why something would not change dramatically from the present. It's just that Elsa was so tired of crushing and so on. What a place.

And it's a Miriam bomb statement that some people have had a lot of impact on, but that didn't mean it was over.

"But well - can Melinda and the others be there? Good, good."

Miriam nodding firmly as she lowered her face. Nobody just understood why.

"What's wrong, Mother, what's good for you?

Elsa asks, having managed to regain her feelings.

"Huh? You don't get it? Obviously, you smell different. Oh, yeah, Samantha. Are you all right? Take a trip. Or are you okay now just because you're not noticeable?

"Huh? What do you mean?

Neither does Elsa's answer to the question get guidelines. Of course Elsa puts Samantha on the neck. Only Maxim, who just actually has experience as a partner, and Jin, who has a long life experience, could come up with those keywords.

"Maybe..."

The answer to that presumption was immediately told by Miriam.

"You didn't realize that, did you? Samantha, you're pregnant, right?

"" "Huh?! Yeahhh!?

In the words spoken, most of those on the spot, including Samantha, raise a shout of amazement. Not only was there a surprise, but naturally there was a joyous sound close to a whisper.

(I knew it! Wow, congratulations!

Jin also blessed the fact with a full smile.
