It was an unexpected person who came to visit me.

"Hello"

Pepper and head down are the people who just broke up yesterday.

The daughter of Rencia's village chief - but I told you, Mr. Renge.

"Mr. Renge, right? What's wrong with you?

"Oh, no, I need to talk to you for a second..."

"Oh, no, is that Girls Talk? Then Satsuki will just serve the tea and pull it in so you don't get in the way, so put it on the right table."

"Excuse me, Mr. Satsuki"

"No. No. Honey from your place is always of good quality. This much is a service. Bye ~"

As I said, Mr. Satsuki returned to the store's kitchen once he had prepared his tea and then arranged it on the table, and immediately returned to the residence area.

It was me and Mr. Renge who were left behind. And those are the three Kuzha-chans who have followed nature.

Mr. Renge has a strange face, staring at himself as reflected in his tea. It feels like I'm worried.

Don't rush because you're not even in a particular hurry, take your time drinking tea and wait for words. Mr. Satsuki's arm didn't have to be questioned, and this was also a delicious cup of tea.

Lose as much and your opponent slowly opens his mouth.

"Actually...... Again, I thought you might come to Lencia and this is how I came to ask you"

"Again? I just got back yesterday?

"Yes......"

On Kuzha-chan's question mark, Mr. Renge lowers his eyebrow butt sorry and nods.

She keeps talking as she sends a peep at this one.

"... Well, it's about yesterday's honey eating, but it doesn't look like it happened naturally."

"Oh, really?"

I was never surprised by the words I was told.

Yesterday is the first time I've seen a creature called Honey Eaters, because Kuzha and the others were uncomfortable with their behavior.

If the unusual behavior of the honey eaters were designed to do so with some kind of magic or skill capable of manipulating creatures just like my blood contract, I can be convinced.

"There were bandits after honey... and they were magically manipulating and ramming honey eaters, multiplying that mess, stealing honey. I noticed yesterday…"

"Bandit..."

They called me a bandit, and a thick threesome blurred the corner of my head, but probably not.

I don't think Terriers would use any more of the right methods, or any more of their hands.

Those artists have a much more disciplined personality than they look. Hit the grand surprise from the front if you want to. Those are the people.

So it would mean the work of another bandit... I wonder.

"Please, to Rencia again... help us"

"Yes, I refuse"

"... Huh?

"So I said no."

I care, but that's why I'm sorry it's such a pain in the ass.

Why should I do that when I'm not grateful? [M]

I just got home and I haven't even taken a nap yet. It would be natural to say no. I have trouble getting a face like that "unexpectedly turned down".

"Hey, hey Mr. Alger!?

"I think you should ask Mr. Akisame to do that. Some of them seem to be mercenary systems, so you can have them."

"... if you ask me, you really are"

Kuzha, who stood up in a hurry, calms down in my words.

Yes, if something goes wrong, you can ask a professional to do it, and you can report it to your country's administration in a decent way.

We just met yesterday, and I don't know why I asked you to do that. And a pain in the ass.

"Ugh, that's... if you ask Master Akisame, it's really going to be a big problem, and we're a small village, and we can't afford to hire Rantz Kunecht..."

"I see. But it's none of my business."

"Oh, shit! Please, I will thank you......!

"I don't really want anything to thank you for."

... you eat it down, this guy.

Something catches on.

The trigger has changed from "how did you get here" to "why should it be me" question.

Something's wrong with her.

What I said does not seem to be a lie in itself. It is understandable that relying on Mr. Akisame for a larger story can scratch the product value of honey, and that there is not that much money in a small village.

But something's wrong.

If that means there's a connection, then you can rely on Mr. Satsuki.

It would be easy to ask because we seem to know each other, and Mr. Satsuki is a good man, so he wouldn't turn down every favor like that.

It's like it has to be me, all you think about is bringing me in. I feel that uncomfortable.

It looks serious, but it also looks like something is missing, odd discomfort.

Perhaps you want to stay down with Mr. Akisame and his business partners - and conveniently use us to solve it.

"... Um, Mr. Alger"

"What is it?

"I don't know... I'm asking you to go this far, so I think I can ask you, okay? If we settle this right away, I think we can meet with Mr. Alger's waiting list."

Apparently Kuzha mistakenly thinks I care about time to meet Xeno-kun.

Actually, it's purely because it's a pain in the ass. What, but it's also a hassle to correct a mistake, so let it go.

However, if it stays like this, Kuzha is going to go to Lencia alone.

I know how combative she is, so I don't think it's a problem to let her go, but I'm concerned about Mr. Renge's condition.

I'm anxious to let my child go alone where maybe trouble awaits me. I admit Kuzha has a lot of fighting power, but it's pretty suspicious when it comes to attention.

"... right. I said thank you, but what exactly?

"Me and anything the village can do"

"Really? Well then...... can we have this store wholesale honey for cheaper in the future?

"... ok. I don't think your father would say no if the village helped."

Mr. Satsuki has been very helpful so far, including inns, meals, and city guides.

I guess he and his employees say they don't have to worry about it, but it's already enough for me to call it a thank you.

If she's Mr. Satsuki's business partner, she should be able to say enough to repay you for letting her favor it in the future.

It's troublesome, and there's some uncertainty about whether it's a concern or not, but I'm more anxious to let Kuzha go alone, and if I can repay you, is that it?

If it's any trouble, you and Kuzha will be able to solve it without difficulty. Just get it done and go back.

You can eat me down forever, and that's a hassle.

"Okay, then, let's go to Rencia again"

"Mr. Alger......!

"Ah...... thank you!!

"Mr. Renge. Did you come all the way here with a horse?

"Yes, fly the earliest child in the village... if Mr. Crowe is with you, I'm sure he'll be here"

"That was good. We'll use the horses, too, so I need directions."

Getting around in the carriage was a long day, but it was a pretty relaxing trip then. Probably a care for Mr. Akisame.

If you go light on Neguseau, you can travel much faster than the other day. From now on, we might get there before the date changes.

"For once, shall we ask Mr. Satsuki to tell the commercial guild before we go, Kuzha?"

"Copy that!

I don't think it will prolong, but it's also possible that Xeno-kun is back early.

Mr. Satsuki said he needed help with the commercial guild, and I'll let him know where we're headed.

"Hehe. I knew Mr. Alger was sweet!

"... I don't think so."

It's nothing. I'm not acting for Mr. Renge, so I feel different from being nice.

My purpose is to thank Satsuki and I am anxious to let my friends go alone.

I changed what I say for my own reasons, so I think it's a good place to be selfish, but Kuzha seems kind of happy.

While wondering about my friend's attitude, I decided not to say anything more.
