20. Mr. Elena

On the way back to the inn after the orphanage, I discovered Mr. Elena.

"Ah, Mr. Elena"

When I spoke to Elena, Elena looked around a little bit as a vic. And when he turned his gaze to me, he called out to confirm.

"Lena?

"Yes, are you home now?

As I nodded, Mr. Elena nodded with a slight relief.

"... yeah"

There was such discomfort in Elena's condition.

"... Was it also something troubling?

"Oh, that's..."

That's what Mr. Elena said and let her gaze wander. He told me that there was absolutely something going on. He showed me how Elena had given up looking at Elena all the time.

"Recently, Mr. Aldin has been able to follow me a lot..."

Does that mean they're stalking you?

"Did they do something?

"That's not true, but, you know, it's a little disgusting..."

With that said, Mr. Elena was asking what was going on around her. I see, that you're so wary of Aldin that you're concerned about what's going on around you... Maybe Elena doesn't have much time to rest if she's supposed to be tired at work and even cares about this.

"... in the meantime, should I give you a lift home?

"Huh? Are you sure?

"Yes, because I said I'd do what I could."

"Thanks"

That's how I was supposed to give Mr. Elena a lift home. I was walking around worried about what was going on on on the road, but I didn't see any suspicious people coming to see us.

Did you just happen to be away today? And with that in mind, I was asking Elena how the guild was.

According to Elena's story, Aldin still seems to be dictating about Elena, but he hasn't done anything more inside the guild. But they've had more and more persistence before, and every time they get help from officials nearby. He can't live without working because he's an adventurer, so maybe the only salvation is that he doesn't stay with Mr. Elena all day...

That's how I broke up with Elena when I arrived in front of her house. In the meantime, I found Mr. Elena quite in trouble, and I was walking to the inn thinking if there was anything I could do either.
