At the garden tip of the hall full of signs of spring, Iola looked troubled with her cheeks illuminated.

I'm sitting on a bench on another day in the garden with a book in my hand. The big (...) job of drying laundry is done, and I think I'll read it in a book.

Iola stands in front of me and stares at me with a serious face.

"Life...... consultation?

I peered into the chestnut eyes of my twin brother.

"Yeah. The... you know..."

Always a boyish Iola with cheerful and zubbly things to say, but I'm trying to make it harder to say anything today.

I don't rush, Iola's hair lit by the light is just as fluffy as Riola's... I'll wait and see what I can think of.

"... too hard for my sister to like about, or something?

"Buh!? That's not a problem!

"Ho, ho...?

I don't know what you care about. I heard some amazing words, but there comes Riola, who's finished drying her laundry, and I'm busy! and hit my brother (Iola) on the back.

"What pain!?

Unexpectedly kicks Riola in the outrage of her sister (Riola).

"If you have something to say, say it. Me... because I'm with Io no matter what happens"

"Rio......"

With his face, Riola said, staring at Iola's face with her mouth tied and waiting for her words.

I guess it means that there was already some kind of discussion between the two of us to see from that short conversation interaction. Since we are together, does Riola's word include "opinion" or "no matter what"?

Iola opened her mouth like she had decided to.

"Guru! I... I want to go to higher school."

"Huh? Higher?

I rounded my eyes. Iola just entered the village school building in the fall, and the choice between going on to school or getting a job is a whole year ahead of her at least.

If you want to go now, you have to take a difficult flying entrance exam...

When I twist my neck a little and shut up, Riola flanks me in frustration.

"Too much talk already!

"Say it now."

It just looks like we're still friends, but it seems like a serious interaction for both of us.

Hemperoza grabbed a bug right next to me, brother Io. No, sister Rio! And he tried to twitch, but he read the air in an instant to the two serious faces, and changed the direction of the progression with Sister Manu's cheeks. Show off the bugs in a white manuferno with a face that the sun is hard.

Not as good as Faria, but Manu doesn't seem to like to ignore it, so he talks with his face in trouble.

"It's me... you said you wanted to be a brave man.

"Oh, you did"

That's the first time the two of you have visited here and the line that Iola screamed the most about opening.

I feel like it was a long time ago, but it was a few months ago at the end of summer, right?

"But I just made a few trips with Mr. Ergo and I figured it out.... not very much, but I can't catch up, I can't get there."

Iola spinned her words seriously, but somewhere lonely.

When I listened, Riola was also looking to her brother's side with a serious face.

"At first, I just hated the Demon King Army for taking my father and mother... And I admired the brave men, so... when I heard there was a wise man in the village, I ran in and asked him to be my disciple first."

"Io......"

"But I knew no matter how strong I got, I would never have seen Mr. Ergonote, and what a cloudy presence he is just now... Most importantly... there's no more Demon King. And already..."

- No mother, no father, no house, no time to come back.

The words Riola said before blur the back of her brain.

Iola shudders her shoulders small, with tears on the edge of her eyes that she has never shown before.

"I don't just get stronger, I study and become a knight... protect my village and country. I want to live with Rio..."

With determined eyes like that, he turned his gaze to his sister beside him (Riola) and then turned to me.

"Right."

I snap small and snort.

I'm still middle two (...) at my age, and I think I can go through my dreams and keep going, but it's a very normal sight for kids who can't get to higher school buildings in this world (Titi) to start working.

I thought Iola wanted to be a brave man just because of the momentum, but she was actually starting to think seriously about the future.

Becoming a brave man is certainly a dream story. Time like a child admiring a fairy tale makes me miss him a little when I wonder if he had come to an end at some point.

If you simply want to wave your sword and fight demons, you may have your hands on becoming a "escort," but not so much demons (...) lack (...), and in the Wang Capital, a work-busting escort can be like Gorotsuki.

Iola wants to study properly in the higher school building and become a knight whose identity is guaranteed by the King's government.

But......

Why is Iola talking to me when she says she's seriously starting to think about her future?

It's okay if you talk to me normally.

"Oh, yeah. Isn't that okay? But the higher school building is next year."

I respond so lightly and smile.

I understand Iola's hopes, but I will have to study hard in the village school building this year and take the higher school exam next year. I need a guarantee of identity for admission, but that's where I am, so it won't be a problem...

"No, you don't! Well... I had a dream that me and Riola would stay here because I wanted to be 'brave'... If we stop that, we'll see you again..."

Riola bends her brow a little anxiously and listens to her brother.

Oh, well. Did Iola care there?

Are you worried that if we give up our dream of being brave, we'll be kicked out of here?

- Not at all.

"Did you forget? I told you the day I decided to keep you, didn't I? - You've survived the Brave Men's Trial, and if you want to be brave, you can be anything."

"Ah..."

"So, as always. Don't worry about anything."

Iola and Riola looked at each other in the face with Kyoton, and let their eyes shine.

"Guru......"

Sage.

"But when you embark on your adventure, lend me Iola's sword."

"Of course you do!

I looked up at the sky after hearing the usual cheerful reply. The sun dazzles me and I put the book on my face.

Lying on the bench with Goron, the tree bench is warm in the sun and feels good on the back.

"I'm not putting it here because there's something else brave about it. I want to be with Iola and Riola... If Iola finds something she wants to be in the future, she can go for it..."

"Thank you Guru!... Really, okay?

"That's okay. That's what you decided, isn't it? Ah... are you worried about the money again? You don't have to worry about that. Whatever... you can flush my back in the bath."

Joking as she fell asleep, Iola and Riola nodded and finally had a mixed grin of relief and joy.

"Wow, I get it, Mr. Guru!

Always Iola and Riola care about money. I think it's more like a family than a residence......

By the way, I'm not "father" I'm "elder brother". Does it feel like Iola is my brother and Riola is my sister?

As I fell asleep and talked to the two of them, I was getting kind of sleepy.

I'm comfortable with the little bird chirping, and I hear Plum and Hempero in the distance, as well as Manuferno laughing. Today is... a good day.

"Sage... I have a dream, too"

Riola follows her brother and chats.

"A dream?"

"Yes. This mansion... yeah. If you can't, I want to open a bakery somewhere in the village."

"Bakery, like! Riola's bread is delicious. I'll be there for you."

I thought it was a Riola-like, cute, and lovely dream.

Riola's skill in baking bread every day is pretty good. I plant the dough at night, get up early in the morning, round it up and cook it in kamado. I wondered if it was hard for me every day, and Riola seemed to have a lot of fun without the bitter wind. Every morning, everyone in the hall bakes me bread for what I eat.

By the way, you think it's easy because Iola does the force work on the dough?

The simple bread mixed with wheat and a little rye is fragrant and delicious.

Riola dyes her cheeks and smiles happily.

"Thank you, wise man. And... I, one day, will be the sage's -"

And Riola almost said, at that time.

The sound of the world disappeared.

The first one to react was the pram. Pram, who was running around, stopped his legs and looked up at the sky, wondering beyond the sky where it could be.

The sky is still a blue sky on one side, but something was different from what it was a moment ago.

The moment the wind stopped, the birds feathered simultaneously, and I noticed other faces in The Anomalous.

... Wow, wow.

I heard something faint, groaning.

"What...?

"Sage Grecas, something (...) is coming!

I woke up and stared into the sky. He clings back to my shoulder and clings to his collar like Metius panicked. And

"- Greg! The massive Magic Grid Sensor is responding!

Lentomia screamed through the upstairs window. I deploy tactical intelligence displays (tactics) to detect enemy junctions (circles) with maximum telemetry. React to the surrounding Kilomerte in a range of enemies.

- Fast!

Co-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o! In an instant a sharp shock sound cuts through the air blushes overhead and passes.

It was an object like a metal arrow (...).

"Ah... oh, sage Grecas..."

- Six hopes, only slight peace will come to the world

Eventually the forbidder, the gatekeeper of the king's capital, the seventh key

When the heavenly god sounds the trumpet of the march,

The light will gather again.

Until he that dwelt in the starch disturbed the line

And Methius quietly wrote the poems of the old prophet.
