After saying goodbye to Koga and the others, we departed from Verhazar and rode on horseback as we had come, heading for the great river that bordered the Demon Lord's territory.

The road was paved more than when I was going, so I was able to reach my destination smoothly.

And here we are, Senri-sama...... He will part ways with Nirvarna and his group.

 

"I've had a very fulfilling life over the past two months."

"No, thank you very much for helping me in various ways."

 

He responds to the handshake offered by Senri-sama.

When I came to the city, I thought he was a terrible person...... No, he's still a ridiculous person, but now that he's calmed down somewhat, he looks more intelligent.

…… Well, when Koga is involved, it gets a little out of control, but that's also charming.

 

"So, Usato Mr./Ms. I have a story to tell you......

「…… Why do you intensify the handshake?"

 

- She twitches her cheek to Senri-sama, who strengthens her handshake so that she doesn't suddenly escape.

 

"Actually, I have a younger sister, the third princess———

"Oh, no, that's ......."

 

Déjà vu!?

Also, a pattern that allows you to proceed with matchmaking without your consent!

Seeing me involuntarily stiffening, Senri-sama giggles and smiles.

 

"I'm kidding, I have a sister, but she's only 5 years old."

"And please stop because it's bad for your heart."

"It's revenge someday."

 

When you are given that, you ...... not be able to say anything.

As I stroked my chest in relief, Helena's Mr./Ms. behind Senri-sama had the same expression as me.

 

"Senri-sama, please stop because we were nervous while we were listening......"

"Uh-huh."

 

Mr./Ms. Helena shrugs her shoulders as she smiles mischievously.

With a wry smile on his face, he calls out to Mr./Ms. Helena this time.

 

"Thank you Mr./Ms. Helena."

"I'd like to thank you for your and Mr./Ms. Koga, because Senri-sama's runaway behavior was kept to a minimum."

 

Is that the minimum ......?

Maybe he was going to set up an engagement duel with whoever he wanted?

I think that's a horrible story.

 

"What are you going to do after this, Senri-sama? It's about Koga."

"Of course, I'm going to report it to your father."

 

Depending on the content, it's going to be a big deal.

Even though he has forgiven him somewhat, he feels sorry for Koga when he can proceed without asking questions, and tries to give up for the time being.

 

"That's ———."

"You don't have to tell everybody."

 

However, she interrupted me and smiled.

That's kind of ...... It was a cheerful smile that was different from the one that had made you feel the fighting spirit so far.

 

"I've already found my feelings, so I'm going to take the time to deepen our friendship."

「! Then it looks like it's going to be okay."

"Yes, now it's time for a real engagement duel!!"

 

I don't know what the decisive line is, but Koga seems to have a hard time from now on.

But on top of that, I was in a state of mind that I wanted to support Senri-sama.

 

"Now come to the Kingdom of Nirvarna, a warrior like you is welcome."

"I'm also interested in Nirvarna's national style, so please come and help me then."

"Yes, and I look forward to seeing you again."

 

He exchanged words with Master Senri and then saw her and the warriors of the kingdom of Nirvarna off.

The kingdom of Nirvarna has many physical people.

I'm very interested in what kind of training they do, so I'd like to go there someday if I have the chance.

And since it was late at night, we decided to camp at the watchtower near the taiga, and as usual, we rested around the bonfire.

At that time, Mr./Ms. Nagi was going to serve dinner, so we were waiting for dinner to be completed while helping out.

For the time being, Mr./Ms. and the others are keeping watch, but I myself emit weak healing magic waves around me to sense healing, and above all, there are two clairvoyant magic holders, so there is almost no chance of being ambushed.

 

"Alright, it's done."

 

Mr./Ms. Nagi, who stirred the soup in the pot, handed out the soup one by one.

Soup cooked with wild herbs and portable dried meat.

It also contains aromatic herbs, so it has a good flavor, and the seasoning seems to permeate the whole body from the stomach in moderation.

 

"It's sweet and sour, and it's delicious."

"I've ground up a few different kinds of nuts and I'm relieved that they seem to be getting the flavor right."

 

Mr./Ms. Nagi looks a little embarrassed, but it's really delicious.

I'll take it to Mr./Ms. Alc, who is keeping watch, later.

 

"This is my sister...... It was my sister's specialty, Mr./Ms.."

"My ancestors?"

 

Mr./Ms. Nagi nods at Amako's words.

She stared at the soup in the bowl in her hand and smiled, as if remembering the old days.

 

"My sister Mr./Ms. was a bit of a shy person, but she was a kind person, and in the end, I made her worry until the last time I saw her......

"She was like Mr./Ms.."

"Yes, he was really like Kanoko Mr./Ms.. …… As soon as you take your eyes off it, it's gone, hahaha."

 

Mr./Ms. Nagi half-laughs as if she has a lot of feeling.

However, it is clear that Mr./Ms. Nagi was an important family member Mr./Ms. his sister. …… When I think about it, I think it must have been a strange feeling for Nagi Mr./Ms. to be acting with his descendants, Amako and Kanoko Mr./Ms..

 

"Well, I hope there will be more cooking duties for me."

"Until now, it was only Alec, and the number of people in the dormitory has increased, and it would be better if there were more people who could make it."

"Oh, I don't want you to expect too much...... I don't know much about formal cooking......

 

Mr./Ms. Nea and Uluru and Nagi Mr./Ms. somewhat unnerving.

It's true that with one more dormitory and more members, the burden on Alec, who is always in charge of cooking for the rescue team, is likely to increase.

But what about the other tough guys...... Some of the bastards are never allowed to stand in the kitchen, and I can cut vegetables and prepare fish, but I can't cook.

 

"But I think he's definitely a good cook."

"You can do anything, Suzune, even though you have a bit of a weird personality."

 

He is both talented and has excellent eyebrows...... If you don't show your true personality, you're an impeccable and perfect superhuman.

Well, for me, I feel like Inugami Suzune is more of a bare senior, so now I feel uncomfortable with the perfect person.

 

"You're finally going to the Ringle Kingdom tomorrow......

 

As he thought about this, Kira, who had been quiet next to him, muttered as she dropped her gaze to the plate of soup.

Uluru Mr./Ms. hears the murmur and calls out to her in a bouncy voice.

 

"Keira-chan, are you looking forward to the Ringle Kingdom?"

"Yes, I only knew about the Demon Lord's Territory! I'm happy to get to know the outside world!!"

 

Kira nods happily at the sound of Mr./Ms.'s voice.

The townscape of the Ringle Kingdom has a different atmosphere than the Demon Lord's Domain, so Kira might be surprised by that.

 

"And I'm looking forward to meeting Mr./Ms. Ferm!!"

"Oh, Ferm would be delighted."

 

She was the one who was the closest to Kira.

…… I'm afraid they'll think I'm going to be mistaken for recruiting Keira to the rescue team and I'm going to get hit in the head.

 

「…… Hmmm."

 

But do Ferm and his seniors get along?

I'm sure the seniors are fine, but I'm really not sure what's going on with Ferm.

 

"I'm looking forward to seeing you when I get back, Usato-kun."

"Yes, I'm sure she's learning a lot from Mr./Ms. Olga."

 

Helping out at the clinic sounds simple, but it's actually about watching Olga Mr./Ms., an expert in healing magic, and watching his skills.

I can't wait to hear what he saw and learned beside Mr./Ms..

 

"I'll have to introduce Keira to Nak then."

"yes, I'm looking forward to it too.

 

They're about the same age.

I know that neither of them is the kind of person to fight, and Nak is also normal with Ferm, who is a demon race, so I think he'll be okay with that.

 

「…… Nea. Do you have a rivalry with Knack?"

"I guess it's a possessiveness that wants to be the best disciple, but it's not cute for your age."

"Should I tell Usato?"

"You don't have to tell them these things because you don't want them to know about it, it's not like we're fighting."

 

Amako and Nea are talking in a low voice.

I couldn't hear much because of the sound of the bonfire...... yes, it's not something I'm particularly interested in.

He straightens up once and then rests his back against the sleeping body of Bulllin, curled up behind him, and takes a breather.

 

"I'm sure Senpai is fine, but I'm sure he's letting Kazuki worry."

 

Senpai has joined the lifeguard, but Kazuki still lives in the castle.

I'm sure he's worried about him, so I'll have to go see him as soon as I get back to the Ringle Kingdom.

There are also Mr./Ms. stories about souvenirs.

 

"But even if you return to the Ringle Kingdom, there is nothing you can do Mr./Ms.."

 

The first thing to do is to report to the castle and submit a copy of the documents that Hannah Mr./Ms. prepared in the Demon Lord's Domain.

Next, tell Rose about Keira.

At the same time, the corpses of Rose's subordinates are returned to the bereaved families.

Check on Mr./Ms.'s request for help from Olga.

Maybe there's more to clear my thoughts, but that's all I need to do as soon as I get back.

 

「…… Now it's time to ask Mr./Ms. to teach me about magic."

"Oh, were you really going to do it...... I thought I had forgotten about it."

 

It's related to training, so you can't forget it.

I reply seriously to Nea, who has a surprised expression.

 

"As long as there are demon forces, no matter how much preparation you make, it won't be enough."

"It's the kind of nastiness that you really don't want to turn against them."

"It's scary because it's too unknown for the other person to start doing strange things even if you don't chase them down."

"Since we started working together, I've come to understand the meaning of Amako's words 'I can't take my eyes off her' in a double way......

 

Nea, Amako, and Mr./Ms. Nagi are said in that order, and it is a little dented.

I'm aware that I'm doing something weird, and I know that it might end up being meaningless, but I'm also well aware that that failure can lead to new ideas.

 

"But it's been a long time since I've been in the Ringle Kingdom, so I'm going to forget about work and go about my daily life."

"Yes, the king will forgive you...... I mean, I think you're usually overworked, so I'm going to force you to rest."

 

Is that ......?

Even though I was going to spend my daily life, I was planning to do some training in the sense that it was the daily life of the rescue team...... No way, that's not ...... good either?
