Inside the labyrinth city, where the inns meet.

There, there was another swirl of heat different from the square.

"That, please!

"Okay!

The owners of the city lodgings giving instructions asked me, boys and girls coming and going here and there.

They work desperately to keep more than hundreds of adventurers as close as possible.

I shrugged as I watched those people working in larger numbers than I could have imagined.

"... I can't believe this is happening"

At that time, it wasn't the number of people I was blinded to, it was the working young boys and girls.

Indeed, unlike usual, I come in the same clothes as the people of the city so that I can get dirty.

But if I remember correctly, it was the adventurers who just got out of the orphanage among the adventurers who worked there.

Perhaps this is how they labor because they were judged not to rely on it to count as a force of war.

"Can someone come?

"I'm going now"

But I couldn't feel anything like dissatisfaction from them working.

On the contrary, it looks fuller than when I saw it as an adventurer, and I laugh small.

I can't put it in words clearly.

However, I felt that the precipitation of the labyrinth city, which had so far been strange, had slowly but surely begun to circulate.

... I was born into a labyrinth orphan, so there's only one way to live as an adventurer.

That was what gave birth to the scornful subject of incompetence like ours, and made other labyrinth orphans leave others to live.

Its nightmarish provisions are fading away a little bit.

That's how I understood it. I was looking for Narsena for a little while, but I was staring at them working.

Thought so about what the hell I would protect.

"Mr. Laust......!

From behind, that was when suddenly a voice rang calling me.

I didn't think someone would stop me here, and I look back a little upset.

Then it was someone I never imagined I would have been there.

"... Armia?

"Ha, good. They found me...!

Suddenly, Armia shows some relief to me.

I couldn't hide my doubts about Armia like that.

"... Something wrong? And what's that outfit?

Yes, Armia wasn't wearing her regular robe right now.

If that were all, I might not have been so surprised, but I couldn't hide the surprise in the clothes that Armia was wearing.

Whatever, Armia was dressed like every other adventurer, because she looked like a city girl.

Armia figure with long hair tied back, head bracketed in a big handkerchief cloth and slightly dirty apron.

That implied that Armia had been preparing for the inn until now, but no, I couldn't hide my surprise because I had.

As far as I can tell, every adventurer who works here is a man who can't fight this one.

That's why I ask Armia, who works without rest, even though she undoubtedly did a great job.

"For once, resting is one of my jobs. I don't think you should."

"I was just being helped in this fight by Mr. Lyla and... Besides, even though Mr. Ronald and Mr. Lyla are still working, I'm the only one off."

... My chest hurts so bad that I'm dressed to push an adventurer against Lyla.

For a moment, while I accidentally say it, Armia overlaps words.

"No, that's fine!

"It's not good..."

"There are people working who can't go without more rest than me, and that's okay!

"Huh? Who the hell..."

"Anyway, it's fine now!

I tried to open my mouth in awe of Armia, who so forcefully proclaimed... it was then that I realized that there was a rush on Armia's face.

"... really this is how it works, I was worried too"

For a moment, Armia tells me, straying into his eyes, but staring straight at me.

"I need to ask Mr. Laust something. Please come!

"... be!

The moment I said that, I was surprised by Armia, who ran away, and still managed to accompany her.

Although I was delayed by a moment's distraction, I was able to quickly catch up with Armia, who was unable to strengthen her body.

Armia keeps running without turning to me like that.

Chasing that back, I was squeaking by accident.

"... where the hell are you headed?

What Armia was passing through was a path that even I, who lived in a labyrinth city for many years, had never gone through.

Armia moved on and on through the back of the various shops and stopped behind one.

I've never seen a store in the city from a place like this, and I can only tell to some extent that this is an inn.

I step on two feet wondering if I could come to a place like this, but in the meantime, Armia just walks into the store.

"Is there..."

After a little trouble, I decided to follow Armia.

I feel bad about going into the store on my own, but I don't even know what Armia's favor is if I have to go inside.

If I'm to blame, I'll apologize.

Never will I open the door.

"It was too late just to scrub the garbage, Armia"

─ ─ It was then that I heard the human voice I was looking for.

At that moment, I forgot what I had been worried about, and I was headed back to the store.

In a store that could never be described as spacious, I immediately found Armia and the Lord of Voices.

At the same time, the Lord of the Voice slowly looks back.

"Maybe I'm lost... Huh?

At the next moment, Narsena, the Lord of voices with whom I and I met in the meantime, was to consolidate.

And oddly enough, I was solidified exactly like Narsena.

... I was in love with Narsena's outfit for too many reasons.

Narsena's outfit was always that of a different city daughter.

Of course, he's dressed much the same as Armia, even though he's different than usual.

But Narsena, dressed as if she were different than usual, was fresh.

He covered his short sapphire blue hair with a cloth and wore an apron.

While it is an apron that can never be described as beautiful, Narsena's charm is not inhibited, and when I see her, I harden.

If no one spoke like this, I might have been seen for a long time.

But I was soon to be restored to sanity. [M]

"... Huh!

─ ─ As soon as you noticed me, Narsena flipped.

Narsena runs out of the narrow store after me, not knowing what she's trying to do.

And it leaves a different entrance than the back entrance we came in, probably through the front entrance.

I stand flat on that Narsena move that I just think escaped.

"Follow me!

But the screams of Armia brought me back to sanity.

Narsena is no longer in the store.

But we haven't lost sight of it yet, we should be able to catch up.

The next moment I decided that, I was jumping out of the store following Narsena's back.

◇ ◆ ◇

I couldn't keep up with Narsena, who was running away, against expectations and strengthening her body.

It's the best we can do by chasing after it so we don't lose sight.

But there was still no rush for me in that situation.

Because I knew I'd lived in a labyrinth city before.

After Narsena runs, she says it's a dead end.

"... ah"

It wasn't until Narsena realized that her running alley was at an end, then she ran a little.

Staring at the wall in front, Narsena glanced around, looking for a way out for a little while, but stopped like she'd given up running away.

But I know Narsena can escape beyond the worst wall, and I see Narsena without breaking my guard.

To me, Narsena grinned at the loss of power.

"I'm sorry I ran away unexpectedly. I have a few things to think about by myself... But I'm not running anymore."

With that said, Narsena sits back with her back on the wall.

If you sit back, you have to stand once and you won't get away easily.

Finally, I relaxed my guard.

─ ─ It was then that I realized that I had no idea what to do now.

A muscle of sweat drips off my cheek.

Armia told me, and I didn't think about what to tell you, although it was good that I came after you.

... In the first place, I realize now that Armia's favor is not even listening.

I open my mouth, sitting beside Narsena for now, in a heartfelt hurry for my various failures.

"No, that. I'm sorry I chased you."

"That's not true. Maybe Armia didn't see me too well, so she went to get your brother."

"No, I didn't ask why they called me."

"... Really?"

With that said, Narsena will remain silent.

While I was in a great hurry, I kept talking while covering it up on the surface.

"Speaking of which, I spoke to Mr. Ronald before I got here, and he was complimenting us. It will be the key to our enduring a labyrinth outburst."

"... Mr. Ronald?

"Yeah. And Marnell and the others want to have enough fun, and it's like trying to get along better with the city people and the adventurers."

"... Really?"

Narsena smiles small at my words.

But when I saw Narsena's attitude, I was in a hurry. [M]

On the surface, I'm trying to fix it, but Narsena's attitude was obviously being taken away from me by something else.

I'm determined to look like that.

I just kept talking about it, and it never gets better.

I must apologize properly.

I decided that, and I bowed my head to Narsena.

"Sorry to bother you so much"

"... Huh?

Narsena's reaction to my apology was puzzling.

I continue to say that even though I feel a little unusual, I must sincerely apologize now.

"I'm sorry I was so impotent when I fought Fenrill. But heels didn't activate well at that time, so I didn't try to be impotent."

"Oh, well, wait!

Somewhere in a hurry, Narsena blocked my words.

When I looked up at what the hell was going on, Narsena had a more confused look than I did.

"... what's wrong with that? Suddenly."

"Oh, wasn't that why you were angry?

Unexpectedly when I ask, Narsena tells me with a troubled face.

"That surprised me a little, and I was worried, but that's not what I want you to apologize for."

"Then why are you avoiding me..."

... a little, the atmosphere of Narsena that was getting better, it was the moment I said the word back to normal.

Narsena opens her mouth with a crying smile on my face when I accidentally lose my words to the change.

"... I'm sorry I made you mistake. It's not that I was running away because I was mad at your brother. I just wanted to be alone."

Tell him so, Narsena grins.

... somewhere, with a look I felt.

"Really, it's not a big deal. Tomorrow, I'll do my best.... So can you just leave me alone today?

I laugh, I couldn't say anything to Narsena.

As the saying goes, Narsena will behave as if it had never been tomorrow.

Knowing Narsena as an adventurer, I can be sure of that.

... but I was able to leave the place.

Being believed as an adventurer...... I couldn't leave one girl I liked in this situation.

Even if it's an excuse to leave me instead of wanting to be alone.

So I go by Narsena without responding. [M]

"... uh, brother?

"Well, you can think of me as a wall right now."

... myself, I wonder what you're doing, I think so.

But with shame, I repeat my words.

"So you can go somewhere without worrying, and if you want to take a break, you can bring it back.... and I don't think it's weird to say someone's stupidity on the wall"

Trembling with tension and impatience, I tell Narsena yes.

Here, if they really go somewhere or say stupid about me, I'm honestly confident they'll drag me down for a few weeks.

... Still, I couldn't just leave these facial narcenas here.

"Hehe. What is it, it"

Seeing me like that, Narsena was small and still laughed out loud.

And squeal down small.

"... so I didn't like it"

That was a distressing word somewhere.

And Narsena asks as she leans down.

"Brother, can I ask you one thing?

I open my mouth in the guise of serenity, frightened inside out by the words.

"... I don't think you need to ask me that on the wall"

"Right. So tell me one thing."

Listening to the words, I decide to be ready inside.

Whatever stupidity you're told here, don't break your heart and try to improve the bad.

But such an idea was to disappear after seeing the face of Narsena, who raised her head... and did not even try to hide her anxiety.

Narsena tells me with a trembling voice that she looks at me unexpectedly.

"... Am I helping your brother?

That was a question I hadn't imagined.
