A Black Knights slave has been pulled out by the White Adventurer Guild to S-rank.

Nerim and Spi went out.

Only me and Riff are in the room.

Well, Zed, are you the one who defeated Reuters?

Well, that's what happens.

"It's so much more than that..."

Rif nodded lightly, speaking in a confident manner.

Maybe he's already figured something out.

It is not surprising that some speculation has been made about the destruction of the Divine City. So it doesn't seem like there's anything there.

"It's going to be a big deal for you, too." First of all, there will be an unbelievable number of requests for nomination "

Are you kidding me again?

I feel bitter when I think of something I don't like.

However, Sufi laughed cheerfully to deny such memories.

"Hank, that's not true." Your lord has become a hero. "

Hero?

"Hmm. You did your best in this war." And by defeating Reuters, I earned the glory of the most powerful guild in the world. There are not many nobles and royals who find value simply by sending requests to their lords. "

Probably has connotative connotations.

I don't think I'm worth it... but I'm sure it lacks the ability to see objectively.

Even though it is just a request, I feel impure motive and get distracted. Even if you ask me to bring you good luck just because I met you, I don't feel impure, but I hope you don't find too strange a value because I'm a human being...

For my part, I'd like you to ask someone who's really in trouble.....

You're thinking of something extra, aren't you?

"No, no, that's not true..."

"Very well, you know I can turn down your request." If you don't like it, you can refuse. "

It was an easy thing to say.

Even as a guild, I would like to prioritize profits.

If I refuse the request, the client may not use the guild.

I'm sure you care about us adventurers.

I'm sure I'd like to answer that question.

“No, I'm fine. Whatever you asked me to do, I can't refuse.”

Huh, I see. Well, the requests of these hands are not only good for practice.

Riff smiles as if he is plotting.

Somehow it looks like it's black and stubborn.

But that's not the point, is it?

"Did you know that?"

There is a limit to what you can say after you've bothered to let the two of you out.

It's a very important requirement.

Riff gently opened his mouth.

"Astaire is real."

"Astaire...?"

"Hmm. It's goddess Astaire." I don't care if you know it.

"Is that a fairy tale or a myth?"

Riff shook his head from side to side.

"A certain old man died the other day. It's called" Ray Nice. "

It's a name I've heard of.

Yeah, that's right.

Were you the first hero?

Precisely the second generation.

Oh, yes. History calls Raines the first champion. But it wasn't.

It is said that the real first Hero used too much power to do everything in his power. The organization for destroying such a strong individual was the "Disciple of Astaire".

Therefore, the first heroes were buried in the darkness of history.

Raines became known as the first champion.

It was actually the second generation, as Riff said.

"... erm. Did that person die the 'other day'?"

"I used magic similar to straw." Nevertheless, it must be said that it is the quality of the person who can survive to this point. It's going to be difficult even for me.

I'm not saying it's impossible.

In fact, the little girl in front of me has a personality and wisdom that doesn't match her appearance.

Was Rif an acquaintance of Ray Nice?

"No, Raines came to see you after the battle with the 'Astorians'." He wanted to see his lord, too. "

"With me?"

Surprised by the sudden nomination.

He said he was already dead, but I guess it's because I'm human that I want to see him dead.

He said, "You saved my life before, do you remember?"

"No... no, but..."

"Maybe that unconsciousness attracts people." If it weren't for you, Raines wouldn't have told me the truth. "

"The truth?"

"Zido, you are destined to be curious. I'm sure if I heard this....."

Riff says.

I wonder what it feels like to be there. I can't take it.

But we can't let this interrupt our conversation.

"It's okay. Tell me."

Hearing my unmistakable words, Rif speaks indifferently.

――

Indeed, it was such a puzzle for Riff.

This is... pretty tight.

"It's up to you to decide what to do." I'll help Zed no matter what. "

I couldn't find a response to that right now.

Riff put me on hold and I got home.

◆

Return journey to Quena's home.

Various troubles pass through my head.

I'm...

"Oh, it's Zed!"

You can hear the child's cheerful voice.

Unconsciously, I waved my hand lightly and tried to react.

Then, the child jumped to see if my reaction was pleasant.

When you see an innocent figure, it heals you.

Suddenly, I realized that the gaze of the people on the road and the voice that came were positive.

(I know you hated me, but...)

Perhaps the riffs were promoting it. That's what Sufi said.

Go to the skewer butcher and make him see your face for the first time in a long time.

"It's been a long time, hasn't it?" I thought you were dead. "

"It's pinching." Give me five skewers. "

"Oh, wait a minute."

Apparently, it was thriving and the additional meat was not yet baked.

Speaking of which, I met your son.

"Oh, he's the one. He's the one who won't show his face in the house." How are you? "

"I was fine." But it's amazing. It's like a wise man. "

"Instead, most of the money disappeared from the study fee." How much did it cost to send you to study abroad..... "

I'm foolish, but I'm proud somewhere.

You're a good kisser, aren't you?

While we're talking like that, I'm getting calls from people on the road.

Looks like I'm really a hero.

"But your popularity is back." No, more than before? "

It's like returning the palm of your hand

"Well, don't be too grumpy." They don't have a chance to know you, either. "

I was given the skewers I had made.

I'm still using a sauce with a nice smell.....

Give me the money and chew the skewer.

"I don't have any grudges." I didn't expect that much in the first place. "

It's dry.

"I just don't understand the distance from others."

That was an honest feeling.

It would be hard if I could have cold eyes, but I would be glad if I could have warm eyes.

I can only feel such honesty.

I'm sure I'm stupid.

"I don't know. It's him." There are some things I'm afraid of that seem kind. "

You look like you're wearing me. [M]

Are you scared?

Or maybe I'm too indifferent to people.

Reuters and Astaire said I was someone who could help people free of charge.

It's a strange thing.

I leave the shop while eating with MOGMOG.

You wave.

"Come again."

I'll be back.

He exchanged such greetings and headed to Quena's house.

◆

There are fewer people on the streets.

I knew I was in first class.

When I come here, I'm embarrassed to be buying and eating because of the high-end atmosphere.

It's already night.

The starry sky is beautiful.

There are fewer things than nature, but there are still some things that shine.

The hand of the one who doesn't have the skewer stretches out into the sky.

(Even if you know it won't arrive... you can't give up.)

Has it been narrated to the stars?

No, it's not.

I tried to imagine my future and make up my mind.

- Prepare to fight the goddess Astaire.
