"Hick, hick -"

Elmir was rescued safely by Steel's hand, but he was so scared or out of the relief he helped.

Either way, I cried out like I cut a weir.

Steel will also give me the look.

Steel is a dwarf and looks like a middle-aged old man.

As far as Elmir is concerned, she is a girl who remains young in appearance anyway - a situation that can create strange misunderstandings when seen by people.

"Hick, I'm sorry - me, me"

"Yes, that's okay! I was scared, you bastard. But I'm glad you're okay."

"... Yes, thanks to Mr. Steel. Thank you so much."

I bowed deeply, wiping my tears, feeling a little calmer.

She thanked me. Now it looks like some kind of illuminated steel, but I tried her again.

"But. It's like a good thing I happened to, uh, want to pass by by chance, but if this were the case, Nagare would have said (...) to be careful, too, wouldn't she? Yet you walk, and really, if anything happens to you with this, I, yes, no, the people of the city will grieve, too. Take care of yourself a little bit."

Steel, who would not have wanted to say too much to her, but this time I dare speak to her to complain.

Then Elmir leaned down with her ears and face softly.

That's too good for you! And steel, no! That - and say it like it's weak.

"I'm sorry... I ended up annoying Mr. Steel as well -"

"Then don't be silly! There's no way you think I'm annoying you! I just don't care if something happens to you!

Unexpectedly raise your voice. And Elmir, huh? and he glances at me, but is it embarrassing to be stared at by those big eyes, he turned that way and scratched his jaw.

"... and anyway. I think you're worried about the residents of the city when you see them carrying medicine, but you should think about yourself a little more. Anyway, to the store..."

"Then..."

It was a steel that kept the words out of sight, but along the way Elmir pinched the words.

"May I say a little selfishness?

and keep staring at his face.

Steel turns his cheeks slightly red, but he gazes at Elmir and returns it if I can do it.

"... may I stay beside Mr. Steel for a while? If you're with Mr. Steel, I'm relieved."

Huh!? and eye-catching steel.

Oh, you want to be beside me.

Thoroughly steel to avoid appearing on the face as much as possible, but the heart is Bakumbakun.

Then Elmir took his arm so that it would clasp, couldn't you? and asked with moist eyes.

Steel is no longer on the verge of going down, but I'll just tell him that I managed to step on it, or I don't mind.

Good ~, and Elmir stroking his chest down.

And...

"I, I knew I was worried about everyone in the city. If Mr. Steel will stay with me - I can safely see that there may be no injured person around..."

"... Oh, well. Right."

It is steel with a slightly disappointing look when I hear this story and I think about it.

However, she smiled slightly as if it were Elmir as well.

"Then stick with me so you don't get in danger."

"Yes! Here's the deal?

"Huh!?"

From the steel, it was a word I conveyed in a way that made me feel like walking next door. Is Elmir honest or natural, he leaned against the steel and turned his thin arm around.

Steel's head is on the verge of boiling.

"Um, could this be hard to walk?

"No! That's what I did! That's fine as it is!

"Huh? Ah, yes"

This was the steel that was supposed to take Elmir, but he wanted to thank me just a little for the black outfit that he had appropriately tied up and rolled in for this role.

◇ ◆ ◇

"... heh, you surprise me. I thought you'd panic a little more, but it's like the movement's been read from the beginning."

He stood on the roof of a stone collective dwelling and solitary about such a thing.

But I don't feel much of a response to him.

With his blonde, blue-eyed face, he even seemed to have some fun.

Then there - thunder poured out of heaven and struck him directly.

It was an unforgiving blow inside.

"It's terrible. How much is anything too sudden? If it wasn't for me, I'd be dead."

"... you, who?

"Ha, isn't that strange in some order? You usually ask someone first. Well, either way, I think thunder shooting is a funny story."

That's what he said. He looked up at her, Merle, floating in the air.

With the magic of the flight she keeps riding in the wind over his head even more.

"But it was delicious magic inside. Dear treat, but why are you doing this to me?

"... I was fucking laughing here. suspicious."

haha, and spills a grin while gently wandering.

And once again, I spread my hands and advertised them so that I could appeal to her.

"With that? It's a terrible crime. First of all, I look like an S-rank adventurer, don't I?

Show Merle the tag he was wearing around his neck and he appeals to him that he has nothing to do with this (...).

But it's not that serious.

"... Ares, S-Rank -"

"Yes, yes. That's why I'm not who you think I am. Better yet, why don't we go on a date next time? Blah, blah. You're quite the type, aren't you? Erotic."

"- Open the door of the Fourth Gate of Magic, activate the Flaming Ceremony [Heat Illusion]"

But Merle still exercises his magic without listening to his words.

Then his feet stained red, and a giant pillar of twilight swallowed Ares and thrust him through heaven.

It is the magic of flames that are initially terrified of the effects on the surroundings when used poorly, but if this is the case, it is also impeccable to have superior power without the risk of secondary disasters.

"... If you're an S-rank, it's weird that you're not in a fight outside -"

And with that said, I looked down at him wrapped in scorching heat.

Of course it is only Merle's idea, and it is not conclusive evidence - yet she believed in her intuition.

And then the magic subsides and Merle looks to where he is. There was nothing there already.

Normally, I'd assume Merle's magic burned his entire body.

"... he disappeared -"

Merle groans so, looking around.

She could see it. Shortly before he wrapped Ares up, he was completely gone.

◇ ◆ ◇

"Absolutely, you're a radical kid even though you have a horny body. No, I wonder if that's why..."

As she moved herself into the woods, far from the city of Hamma, Ares shrugged as she scratched her head.

As a single nigga, I can also feel strange disgust.

"... what. Are we done yet?

Then, some voice is dropped from the perimeter to wither.

Ares then praised his shoulder while acknowledging his presence on the branch.

"No, no, this one's a failure. Thank you. Looks like I lost my operation."

- You failed, but you're too light.

"Uh-huh, 'cause this time I'm like an asshole, right? The main thing is your dog, Inki. Plus, he looks pretty good, and I'm sure he's the only one who can handle that city."

I hope Ares still tells me that at some mild pace, but the presence of it is spoken of.

"So, what's your owner?

"Master Apertia is the same. I seem happy to deliver my meals every once in a while."

"You're really the same, that fat guy"

Ha, and I smiled bitterly at Ares, but then I left the scene, saying that then I would move appropriately.

"Well, if we leave this one to Inki later, it looks fine. You can't be safe surrounded by all those mutants."

Then its presence also disappeared to mist when one was convinced again.

And as the word goes - the defensive line of the city of Hamma is definitely being broken.

It was the problem of the city that was solved, but the crisis on the outside has not yet left, and things are going through a moment and a journey of deterioration.

And - by then Nagare...
