A few days after meeting Iris, Takumi didn't get this kind of information, and the search for his father and gathering information back in the original world were difficult to navigate.

In the meantime, Takumi's injuries were almost completely healed today, so it was the first time in a long time that he had met Walnut at a tavern to receive a request to crusade a monster.

It had been a long time since Walnut had asked me to crusade and I was suddenly worried that I would be okay, but Takumi was barebacking her sword, which was routine every morning so that she wouldn't be too burdened with her arms even while she was injured. It is a habit that has been going on since Takumi was even a little girl in the original world.

There was no bamboo knife in this world, so Takumi was doing it with a new, re-bought long sword.

By the way, this long sword is a better material than the last one, something Walnut bought and presented to Takumi when he crusaded Giant Goblin and came back to the Holy Capital. Takumi decided to thank the younger girl for buying the boulder, as the walnut didn't convince her.

Takumi, who arrived at the tavern, looked around but did not see any walnuts. I've looked again, but apparently they haven't come yet.

"Ah I knew it was early...... I totally forgot that walnuts are weak in the morning."

Takumi came half an hour before the rendezvous because she was free. Takumi was so blurred with one small voice that she sat in an empty seat nearby trying to kill time for now.

And as Takumi searched for a clerk to order something with the menu in her hand, she found three men standing to surround one girl sitting in a seat a little further away.

(That's...)

The girl with the frightened look when she looked closely was Iris, the elf I met Takumi the other day. Something was said to the men as they watched, and Iris was shaking his head firmly with a frightened look. Eventually one man, who had cut his paralysis, pulled Iris's arm he hated and tried to force him to take him somewhere.

"Come on, come on!

"Yes, do it......!?

Takumi, who obviously thought something was wrong, immediately turned to the three men.

"What are you doing to Iris? Stop it. She hates you."

When a sharp-eyed Takumi grabbed Iris' arm pulling arm and called out, the three men turned to Takumi as he seemed to "uh-oh" depressed. Iris, who had a crying look on her face, looked at Takumi and looked open and surprised.

Drunk or slightly red-faced, the reader-like man hit Takumi with a killer temper and waved Takumi's hand away when he let go of Iris' arm.

"Who, boy? Are you with this woman? We were just trying to hang out with this girl a little bit."

"Oh, he's one of mine. Get away from Iris now."

When Takumi stared at the men, who said so without cowering at the killings of the leader's man, one of the leader-like men grabbed Takumi's chest in fury.

"Mm-hmm."

As Takumi stood up to respond, the man in front of her suddenly caught a desk or chair around her and suddenly blew it backwards.

And because of the loud noise, the people I had ignored earlier also started making noise.

"I tried to surprise Takumi early, but what are you doing in Takumi?

Takumi lost her balance behind her because of the sudden disappearance of the man who was grasping her chest, but managed to regain her position.

When Takumi looked up, he stood between the men and Takumi with the same gaze as when Walnut confronted the monster.

The man, the blown leader, stood up and stared at Takumi by looking at the walnut and pounding his tongue.

"I see. Takumi Kiryu, the runaway adventurer you've been rumoring about lately. Anyway, the giant goblins also sidetracked the 'black meteor' handles there, didn't they?

"Takumi..."

"Fine, Walnut."

As the walnut was about to burst if it stayed like this, Takumi said to the man with his hand in control of the walnut.

"So you want to give it a try?

The leader's man, who saw Takumi like that, laughed with his nose to make a fool of himself.

"Ha, fine. I don't even know who I am. Let's show the idiot the difference in power. Tomorrow at noon at the fantasy arena on the tenth floor of Arcadia Castle."

"Fine...... Take it. I'll stand you up."

"Did you say that? Don't run away. If I run away, I'll think of a lettel named Loser with only a mouth."

Notoriety and bad rumors for adventurers greatly affect. They mainly relate to trusting relationships with clients and guilds, making them unable to get a job or, if they do poorly, barring them from entering or leaving the city.

After a while Takumi and the leader's man stared at each other, the leader's man, who eventually tongued and cut his gaze, took the two men away.

Then Iris, who was sitting on the floor in fear, slowly stood up and approached me with an apologetic look.

"Oh, I'm sorry about that Takumi...... You got involved because of me. Thank you for your help."

"Ha... because the boulders couldn't see me. No more injuries than that?

"Ah, yes. It's okay."

As Takumi and Iris talked to each other that way, Walnut, who was looking at us with some grumpy face from behind, called out to Takumi.

"Hey, those guys are C-rank adventurers for once, right?

"But I'm sure you'll win. I can't beat those guys. Walnut, I'm sorry, but I'd like to do some interpersonal training in preparation for tomorrow, okay?

"Ha... well fine. I'll go out with you."

I exhaled like I couldn't help it and Walnut gave it back. Takumi laughed bitterly and turned back to Iris with words saying thank goodness it was in the walnut.

"Then we'll go."

"Ho, I'm so sorry..."

Walnut said a word to Iris, saying goodbye to Iris, and when the two of them tried to leave the tavern, the tavern keeper stood in front of Takumi and the others in some haunted shape.

((a……))

They were then forced to take their seats on the spot and scolded badly.
