"... I can't believe the brave men the adventurers were talking about were Lynn"

Lynn, who was not well, was given a break in her room for the first time.

I was in my room with my stepfather now.

"... I didn't expect this to happen. Well, I was thinking about Lelius becoming an adventurer and a knight."

"... by the way, I was a 'blacksmith'"

To tell you the truth, I was pretty depressed, too.

There's no need for a blacksmith who can manufacture more weapons than all humans have the perfect artifact for each of them.

So famous as one of the hazy professions, the profession has never been awarded in the last few decades.

The only good profession in this world is me and Lynn.

Although its value is very different.

"Well... as a parent, I feel safer that way."

"... eh?"

"You don't want to bother us, you're just trying to be an adventurer all the time?"

"Oh, yeah..."

This house is not about being wealthy.

So I didn't want to bother them and I helped the inn every day.

Still, he had the day off ready for me like he did today about once a week. Even that, I didn't think it was necessary.

"... I don't want you to get hurt or anything. He's a dear friend's child, and he's my son."

My father-in-law loosened his mouth all the time.

I don't want you to be too embarrassed.

"So I'm a little ho, not much of a fightable profession.... when you have the power, you tell them to do their part."

... Maybe you even think about my parents.

The two were quite strong artifacts and professions, adventurers.

For me, it was an admiration.

That's why I had to take a high-difficulty request, and that's why I lost my life.

"It's Lynn now, isn't it?... but it's hard to say no."

"... don't think so"

When I say, my father-in-law looks at you and Lynn's room.

"If he's into it, I'm worried about him as a parent, but I can send him out... I don't know what to do"

What should I do?

My father-in-law is right, that's best if he's willing to ride.

In fact, if I were the same artifact, profession as Lynn, I wouldn't have bothered you so much.

"In the meantime, I'm gonna have to give you a day off and talk to you later."

"... yes, I think so"

"All right. Take a rest today, too, Lelius."

So my father-in-law left the room.

Artifacts and professions, huh?

I wish I had something nice! What an idea, but that doesn't necessarily make you happy for that person...

I'm terribly jealous, but you wouldn't hate to say this to Lynn.

... We need to try not to hurt her.

The door to my room is knocked. An understated knock.

"... Lynn?"

"... yeah"

The door slowly opened.

Lynn, who is not well, was there, looking at this one.

"I'm sorry. Maybe I don't like Relius, but I just want to talk to you..."

"Oh, I don't mind."

Lynn's foreboding, and I found out he was trying to talk about his profession.

Lynn sat next to the bed where I was sitting.

"... I honestly don't like brave people"

I guess, I guess.

I used to walk with my parents and go monster hunting.

Fighting demons has always been normal, and I thought that would be my future job.

But Lynn... has always grown up in this city as the only daughter of an innkeeper.

Ever since I was my age, I've been helping the inn.

I might also have thought about taking over the house in the future.

So, from Lynn, we defeat the demons - and I guess I can't imagine fighting ahead of anyone else either.

"I thought it was scary and absolutely impossible to fight demons. I don't know if I'll ever get used to it again."

……

"But I... do I have to be a knight or an adventurer?"

"... Probably. I want the country to be a knight. But they should also recommend adventurers who can fundamentally reduce demons."

"... right? Brave people are amazing, aren't they?"

"It seems that the brave men who used to take the initiative to destroy the labyrinth were around. Destroying the labyrinth will prevent demons from spreading around you.... so they were saving a lot of villages and towns around the region"

"... yes, what. Do I have to do that, too?"

"Right, right. It seems that the brave man lived that life all the time until his strength faded."

"... well"

Lynn exhaled small.

I held her hand gently, which was trembling.

Lynn moved to make sure of my hand once, and then she gave it a lot of strength.

"Do I have to live like that, too?"

"... maybe."

"I just wanted to live as a lodger girl."

"Yeah... right"

"Yeah. That would be best if you inherited this house. He said he was going to live while joking with all kinds of customers. Listen to adventurers, listen to merchants."

"Oh."

"I thought that kind of normal life was waiting for me..."

All I could do was stare at Lynn with her puffy cheeks on.

Lynn had closed her eyes for a while, but eventually smiled slowly.

"Relius. Me, brave man, I'm going to try my best"

"Are you okay?"

"'Cause if you think someone might still be out there somewhere in need of a demon attack... I need to help you"

……

I guess that's how Lynn thinks because the root part is gentle.

"... good luck"

"Yeah, I'll do my best"

That's how Lynn smiled.

Where she left the room, I was thinking alone.

"Blacksmith," huh.

I don't know, if I had a profession and artifacts that I could fight, I could have chosen the same path as Lynn.

... God is unequal.

Still.

When Lynn said she wanted some help, she also wanted a little help.

I don't know what 'blacksmith' can do.

Still, believe me, this given profession and artifact must make sense, and I'll do my best.

With determination in my chest, I slowly closed my eyes.
