The Traveling Hero Won’t Let the Innkeeper’s Son Escape

"Ed, what do you mean? Because we are……………………."

As Ruth began to see the sunset, he headed with Remias to the mountains to find Ed near the dungeon and found him some time later. I was lost in the mountains when I was going to leave soon afterwards.

And after I was prepared to reveal it overnight, I found artificial lights in the distance. Following that light, the two of us arrive at this mansion and are lucky enough to be greeted by the people at the mansion and asked to deal with their only daughter, walking in the mansion looking for Tiana.

(Until now, I must have lost my memory. I don't know what you don't remember...)

In Ruth's memory, I understand that what I just gave him is a series of events.

In the meantime, I've never been asleep because I hit my head and fell. I don't even remember there being a blank in my memory.

(but...... on second thought, Ed has been doing something wrong since he came in front of the Mansion)

Something is wrong if you say something that Ruth doesn't understand, move on to behavior that Ed has never thought possible before, suddenly you seem anxious, say it when you protect it, or think about it carefully. Besides, I'm supposed to be here with Ruth, but I know more about the mansion when I do. Iban must have never even met him, but he found out he was Iban, who disappeared in the village, and he didn't look surprised, either, like Ruth.

(Ha, well, then, it's like Ed was from the beginning)

- Did you know everything about seeing and hearing in this mansion from the beginning?

"………" What do you mean, "as much as I want you to tell me… why, I..."

- Gashan.

The moment Ed tried to say something, a sound sounded like he flipped something from behind the hallway.

Shaken by the sound, Ed pulls Ruth's hand and heads to the back of the dim hallway.

"Wait, Ed, talk to me."

"Now we'll talk about that later. I think you're anxious, but follow me. Then hurry to the cooking room."

"So, but...!

"Please, Ruth.“ Now ”don't ask. I don't want to answer you............!

'I don't want to answer,' Ruth said in a strong voice, unwittingly.

Ruth is also anxious, but Ed is equally anxious because he sees his shaky eyes and realizes it.

(Calm down, I can't just push my anxiety)

If Ruth persists in asking, Ed may eventually answer. Then Ruth's anxiety would be relieved and refreshed. But if that's what he's afraid of, he shouldn't be asking right now. You shouldn't burden them to relieve your anxiety. We should at least free up time before we do.

(Plus, Ed seems to be saying he doesn't want to answer “for me"...)

I don't know what Ed is thinking at the moment.

But from the phrase "now” and “to you," I knew that when Ruth found out everything, Ed's anxiety would increase. The result must not be good for Ruth either.

I mean, Ed's holding off on what he says for Ruth. Then Ruth, who knows nothing, can only believe Ed.

Speak up again to Ed, who stopped in front of one door.

"I get it. I don't know what Ed's thinking, but I believe him. But tell me exactly what I can do, okay? Because it helps."

"Huh..."

That said, Ed frowned. The face hated Ruth's words, more like she was enjoying something. It was as if I really wanted to cry, but I also looked desperate to endure it.

"... Thank you very much, Ruth. Let's go."

With this, Leo will be able to establish himself as the fourth faction in the current three-ways succession war.

When the door was opened, there was a well-equipped cooking area close to the previous life. I thought it was extraordinarily beautiful and well calculated than the Blau family's, which was updated by Wonok.

(What rich house in the city... is this what it looks like?

Ruth hardly ever left the village, so I don't know, but Clark did say that the King's Capital equipment was much better than the village stuff. However, when all this equipment is in place, I feel that it is not very different from the previous life. Ruth thought that technology was inferior to the previous life, but maybe it was a big mistake.

And there was a sweet smell in the cooking area. Was I in the process of making something sweet?

"Ah, shit, another failure."

I heard such a voice and noticed a man standing in front of a stone kiln-like installation in the back of the room.

Ruth looked familiar on that back.

"Mr. Chester."

That's what Ed calls a man to do sooner than Ruth, and he runs over to him.

Looking at the face of the man who noticed Ed's voice and turned around, Ruth was convinced.

(After all, this guy, Mr. Chester next door......!

What was there was a little fat man dressed in urban cock clothes.

On a small, pure looking eye, a slightly larger nose, a slightly lower back than Ruth's, but about twice as soft as his body, a soft face that he seemed to like to eat - the man had been missing for a few days, he was definitely in Chester, the owner of the bakery next door.

Chester looked at Ed and Ruth's face and frowned.

"Who is it, you guys? How did you get here?

But Ruth's feelings when he found the missing man and daunted him all at once shriveled in those words. There's no way Chester doesn't know Ruth's face as he picks up the bread he was ordering every day. Same condition as Iban.

I thought I could report joy to Beverly, my wife, but she's having a difficult problem here.

"... Ruth. Nor is this man Mr. Chester, who lives next door to Ruth's known. So now."

"Yeah, I got it."

I'm sure talking about the village to Chester won't engage the conversation, as it did in Iban. Ruth stopped asking extras because she was not willing to ask the same meaningless questions twice. Now Ed's right. We shouldn't talk about it. Makes it easier to talk.

"I'm suddenly sorry. I'm Brother Blau, and I'm planning on having us stay here today."

"Brother Blau...... oh is that the lost Mr. Benno was talking about? But why are you here?

Chester also seemed to have only heard from Benno, the butler, beforehand, and when he talked, he was immediately convinced.

But he just didn't feel right coming into the cooking area on his own. Because he has a rare frowning face, he may feel rough about the workplace.

(That... was you making something?

Chester turned her gaze to worry about the big flush on her back. I can see some cookware from Ruth's angle, but I can't see what happened because Chester is standing there to hide it. Since the smell of sweetness has been spreading since earlier, I think I may have made sweets and such.

(But you hid it……… now)

I wondered if he had hidden the unsuccessful dishes, but sometimes Chester was a bakery, and he must have had the equivalent of Celine when it came to cooking. I don't think I would make such a mistake that people couldn't show me.

(Well...... speaking of shortcomings, I wonder if you have the same skill in painting as Alec...... or if your sense of modeling is amazing......)

It was a few years ago that Chester, advised by Alec, began making sweet confectionery bread for the children of the village and with nuts and such. At that time, Ruth said, "If I made it into a cute design, it would look good on girls." For that matter - Chester made the most horrible thing in the world.

'What do you say, you're cute, you're confident!

Chester was so confident. But what I was able to do was very difficult to say that it was cute.

Because they made that by imitating Rapi - the surface was black, the fangs were growing next to the round mouth, the long ears were attached to the side, and besides, there was a nose close to the two eyes - it only looked like a bal with three eyes and a long arm in the big mouth.

(That, in a way, had a strong impact...... how could a cute lapi do that......)

It should be noted that, thanks to the sweetness of the bread, the boys' reception was not bad, but of course the girl had a very bad reputation and it was the end of crying in the store. And at the end of the day, Ruth also remembers being told by his wife, Beverly, to become merely round bread. In normal form, his bread looks delicious.

(Maybe that's what Mr. Chester hid right now...)

I laugh bitterly when I remember Alec looking at that bread at the time and saying 'cool' or something.

Both of them have a high level of artistic taste, but I still thought the vector might be completely different.

"I'm looking for you because I want to talk to Tiana. Didn't you come this way?

"Miss Tiana? Oh, the lady just showed her face here and left."

Chester points to the other door, unlike Ruth and the others who came in.

They say it's a warehouse there, leading to a passage for servants. Tiana seems to pass through that aisle sometimes. Chester cautions me that it's dangerous, but he won't even listen to me these days.

"... missed it again. Thank you, Mr Chester. Ruth, let's go."

"Oh, yeah. Excuse me... Mr. Chester."

Chester waved and disappeared across the door, saying, 'Let the lady be in a good mood today'.

Passages for servants showed that the floors and walls lost a little more quality than the surface. But still, the wall was decorated with a portrait of the deceased Natasha, which was pretty creepy. Moreover, it is a little difficult to see the surroundings due to the fact that there are fewer lights than the surface.

"Right, because I was down this road... is that why I didn't always see him?"

Squeeze like Ed knows something again. But Ruth stopped asking questions about it for a moment and looked for Tiana with him.

The passage was thin and long, with several small doors. But most of them have keys to the door, and they can't be opened. I'm guessing this is Benno's private room.

Ruth and the others headed straight to the back, but eventually ran into each other.

"Tiana, you weren't there."

"It's a narrow road, and there's nowhere to hide... where the hell are you going..."

"Ah... wait, there's something here... there is"

Next to the wall at the penetration, Ruth noticed an odd dent.

Long vertically, about the size of a single index finger dent. I've hardly seen it in the village, but Ruth knew how to use it.

"Oh, I knew it was open."

"What, the door?

When Ruth applied his hand to that dent and force it to the side, it made a slight sound of a chilli and then the wall moved to the side.

Again, this door seems to have been a drawer that I don't see much of in this world.

(The village is mostly western-style architecture, so I may have never seen a drawer before. It's natural that Ed doesn't notice)

When the door was opened, a hallway with the same design appeared on the front side that had been there until just now.

When I went out to the hallway side and looked back at the open door, I noticed that the door was integrated with the wall using columns. Maybe this door was a hidden door for a servant on the back to gently come out on the front.

"It never occurred to me that there was a door in this place. Could there have been something else?

"It's quite possible. Tiana may have gone first from there."

"Right, so..."

Ed is going to regret finding out why he won't chase her. I'm sure I've gone after her many times before and lost sight of her.

"Ed, why are you chasing Tiana so far? It's not because Mr. Dorte told you, is it, for some reason?

When Ruth asked the question, Ed hesitated a little, but eventually opened his mouth.

"This is still within our expectations, but she's supposed to be holding the key to something."

"Keys?"

"Everyone in this mansion wants us to interact with her, right?

"Speaking of which..."

In addition to Rodia, Benno, Dorte and Iban, whom I spoke directly, Chester earlier also said, 'Put your daughter in a good mood today'.

And I would have advised customers/Ruth and Ed who would not otherwise have had trouble walking on their own to make contact with Tiana by walking freely through the mansion, and I was watching the behavior.

Normally, you'd be pissed off using the servant entrance or exit on your own. And yet nobody's paying attention to you two. Doesn't interfere with behavior.

"…… Indeed, it's strange to think about it."

"Yes. That's why I'm chasing you to make contact with her first...... for some reason you've been getting away with it for a long time. Even when I finally caught him, he screamed out loud and shook his hand away…"

"I see. I see. I am in trouble."

Ed doesn't know why she runs away and seems pretty confused.

But it was also strange as Ruth, why would she run away from Ruth and the others?

I know if you want to run away from the older Ruth, but Ed is close to his age with Tiana, and he's short. He doesn't have a strong face in the first place, he has a pretty face. I don't think there's an element to escape.

(But... she, she doesn't play with kids the same age?

If there was always only an adult around, would Tiana be nervous when she met her face at the same age?

Besides, he's a different boy than he is. It is also possible that if I did poorly, I would have face-to-face with a heterosexual of my age for the first time.

(And Ed...)

Though much softer, Ed is on the top of the basic Buddha. I don't get a very soft look other than Ruth unless I act. Ruth has known Ed for a few days now, and even he on the top of the Buddha thinks he's cute because the years are away in the first place.

But Ed is really chasing me.

(... Tiana may have figured out why she's running away from Ed)

Thanks to my experience of getting away from scattered girls in my previous life, I was somehow able to guess why.

"Uh... I'm sure that's Ed's -"

"- You were here. Mr. Ruth, Mr. Ed."

"…… Ah, Mr. Dorte"

I can call from behind the moment I try to talk to you. Turning around, it was the female servant Dorte who was there. She walks quietly towards Ruth and the others. Looks like there's something I need to do.
