The next day.

Vigilante headquarters looked busy.

After all that feast, some complained of the symptoms of hangover, but things still need to be rushed.

The labyrinth has been discovered and we seem to be in trouble over what to do with your response.

"Is it so common to deal with a labyrinth when it's discovered?"

Nin shakes his neck.

From Nin, who lived in the Wang capital and elsewhere, the outbreak of the labyrinth is a familiar problem.

"Naturally. The labyrinth has appeared. Yes, it is. It's stranger to be convinced."

They found him once a month or so in Wang Du.

Nin, who is used to hanging up on it, has his neck clenched.

"Great, Rude! I was going to go get it!"

It was Phil who showed up from the aisle.

I guess he flew away knowing I was here to see where he showed up out of breath.

"After the labyrinth is discovered, I just need to know what to do. I'd like you both to cooperate."

"Is that what you mean? Nin, let's go."

"Right. I'm studying in a study hall today. It doesn't seem like the air."

A little too bad Nin shrugged his shoulder.

Me, too.

Sometimes I wanted to teach my children the sword.

"Have you been contacted about discovering the labyrinth?"

"Ah, oh. I heard you were going to contact the King's Guild when this happened, so there you are."

"I hope that's not all."

Did I tell you about Phil? and round your eyes.

"Where else would I contact you?"

"It's easier to keep in touch with the biggest guild closest to here. So you should also contact the town of Coulas"

Ultimately, investigators are dispatched from nearby towns.

It is more accurate and faster to contact Avancia than to tell you from the guild of the King's Capital.

That should be all, and the dispatch of investigators should be quick.

"Coolas, huh? Surely a merchant must have just stopped by. Let's ask that person. … ho, what else?"

"That should be okay for now with the response....... na, nin?"

Are you all right? Even I've never dealt with this kind of thing.

I just have the knowledge.

"As for the labyrinth, that's fine. And I'll tell you just a few good things. A labyrinth is an important time to boost the town."

"... Hmm. Sure, you do. When you make a town, it's about as bad as near the water, near the labyrinth."

"That sort of thing. Depending on the difficulty of the labyrinth, there may be more opportunities for adventurers to use this town from now on. At least there's a lot of adventurers out there looking good. Everybody's looking for the best hunting ground that's efficient for them."

"... I see. Then you'll need the Adventurers' Inn."

"Right. At a time like this, if you have the economic power to buy in homunculus, it's best to let them run the inn..."

"Hmmm... Probably hard as it is"

Feel wrinkles between his brows.

… the development of the town.

That's what I wanted to do, too.

This town is a good place to be quiet and easy to spend.

But... nothing. As a result, young people often leave for another town.

The population is dwindling, and now it's just old people.

Someday, it is said, this town will be gone.

... I don't like that either.

"Do we have to deal with the vigilantes or the people who are out of our hands?"

"Okay. Let's talk about it."

Nin snorts at my suggestion too.

"Either way, I suggest you buy some homunculus. Uneducated homunculus is relatively inexpensive to buy. I need to teach you something over here."

"I see. Thanks, Nin."

"I'm glad the knowledge I was made to remember in vain seems to have helped."

Phil laughs bitterly at Nin's words.

She's the only daughter in the Duke's house and seems familiar with those things.

Feel lowered his head big.

"Thank you, both. In the meantime, let's do what we're told."

"Tell me if you have any more problems."

Phil and Nin laugh at each other.

I was relieved that we seemed to be doing pretty well together.

Nin is softer than it used to be.

"I'll go around town and the neighborhood."

"I'm sorry, please. Tell me if you have any manpower. Let's get somebody out."

... I'd like to try not to ask for it.

I don't think we have enough people left in the vigilante.

I'm done with my errands, so I'll leave headquarters behind.

"Well, shall we go on patrol?"

"Is Nin coming too?"

He's an injured man.

Seems to be healing pretty good, but still.

"What. Are you nervous when you're alone with me?"

"I will. Be careful not to get hurt worse."

"That's all I know."

Nin lined up next to him with a teasing smile.

No, it doesn't mean I won't at all.

She's a woman, too, and sometimes she becomes aware of what's wrong.

That smile earlier, that was pretty much my preference.

I thought of Manicia's smile in order to calm her dodgy heart.

Walk through town.

Exactly yesterday today there was no sudden increase in adventurers, but familiar merchants seem to be beginning to perceive the smell of gold and prepare for things.

At the waiting area of the carriage, there was a view of the Sinanis.

One carriage stops by the country every few hours.

The time is quite appropriate, too. Sometimes demons attack me, so I don't have a choice.

Looks like the carriage will be here soon.

"Whoa, isn't that Rude?"

Sinanis was in the same tone, but not as hostile as he was at the beginning.

I've raised one hand in light condition, so I'll give it back the same way.

That was true of his party members as well.

His people have come all the way to me to thank me.

I keep my eyes sparkling and I've just never had this much obvious envy, so I distance myself one step.

"Are you going to another town?"

"Sort of."

"Aren't you going to attack the labyrinth here?"

An unknown labyrinth is a mountain of treasure.

In other labyrinths you may be able to acquire materials that are difficult to obtain, and there may also be treasures.

Exactly, the longing of many adventurers, but Sinanis shook his neck sideways.

"We're on a martial arts training journey right now. Usually, we take a month as a guide."

"Exactly, you feel like an adventurer."

Old adventurers were like that.

Each lived free.

Now some settle in one town, make a deal with the guild, and become exclusive adventurers.

After all, stability is a good thing.

"Human beings can get everywhere in one environment."

"Sure, you are"

I've been feeling a lot lately here, too.

I don't want to leave with Manicia, and this time I'm staying in town a lot longer.

"Where are we going next?"

"It's Kaylde, the city of adventurers. My favorite sword is getting tired. I'll get them to work back out there once. I got all kinds of materials."

to, and he loosened his mouth.

"Right."

When I said that, a party member woman who was beside me pushed Sinanis and brought her face closer to mine.

"Sinanis, it's just a lie. There's a delicious store in Caird, and that's just where I'm interested. Besides, it's training. I just want to eat good food everywhere for various reasons. Ah... that's me, Arica! When Fildzaurus, thank you for helping us where we are in danger!"

"Temme! Out of the way! I'm not done yet! Rude!... the next time I see you, I'll be stronger than you!"

... I don't care if they see me as a competitor.

Even I'm gonna have to work out again.

You can't lose.

The sound of a horse, and the sound of a wheel approaching.

"See you somewhere, Rude! Don't get weak!"

"Oh......"

The Cenanis went on a carriage.

Adventurers often meet and break up.

I do that a lot, especially.

There was a slight loneliness, but let's look forward to seeing you next time.

"Is it time for you to resume your activities?"

Nin, watching them leave, sliced his little neck.

"... right. There are regions that haven't been on their feet lately. There are some more labyrinths, and now I'm thinking about going that way"

"You are. I think I'll follow you."

"The church will scold you."

Well, with Nin's healing magic, my burden would be a lot less.

I'm glad you're here, but she has a position.

The Virgin, daughter of the Duke's house.

Few are free to act.

"Nothing. You can stop being the worst Virgin."

"What are you gonna do with the house?"

"You can be banished. I'm a threesome. And when it comes to following you, he'll be happy to send you out. You want strong blood."

... I guess that's the thing.

I'm just not gonna think about that until I cure Manichia.

I'm going to live unconscious.

I know they're rude.

But I'm a weak person.

Happily now, it may become sweet.

When that happens, who's gonna help Manichia? What if I find another happiness and take care of it? If I had myself to prioritize you...

So I don't think. Live dull.

"One piece of advice from me without a parent. Someday, you should leave a place where you can go home. It's like the room in your heart is different."

Somewhere, you better have a place you can count on.

It's manicure for me.

If you go home, you have a girlfriend. That's all I can do today.

"Thanks for the advice. I'll think about it. I'm going to do everything I can to the church and the house. You're not gonna get mad that I did what I wanted from now on, are you? I'm not a child anymore."

"Right. Well, okay. At the end of the day, you decide for yourself. Just don't be rude."

"Okay. Thanks, Rude."

"You'll never be thanked for anything."

"Thanks to you, I'm here now. So thank you for that."

More smiles than they used to be.

Is that because of me?

I didn't mean to get along especially with this.

If it's a big fight, I've had it many times.
