Renkinjutsushi Desu. Jijou wa Gomibako ni Sutete Kimashita

Just a week after Raffie and Sylvia visited Lace's store. As promised, Raffie and Lace were getting together for a date.

By the way, Lace's shop is entirely left to Rotier, who is used to the job. She looked unpleasant with a troublesome look, but unfortunately she has no right to say no.

Rather than that, Reyce's consciousness was focused on being in front of him.

Raffie was not in her usual armor, but in a feminine outfit with a long navy skirt woven with white lace tops. Her hair has also changed to ponytail and she has a black handbag on her right hand side.

Raffie's feminine part, usually hidden in armor and invisible, was slightly accentuated. Unaccustomed to Raffy's appearance, Reyce unexpectedly loses her words and becomes a tourist.

"Well, don't look too... embarrassed"

"Wow, sorry."

Reyce rushes off her gaze as she feels her cheeks get hot. Why is there so much guilt? Thinking about that calms my mind somehow.

By the way, Sylvia was in charge of the cord for this outfit. Raffie said she'd do it herself, but her sister couldn't hear me.

"Well, let's go."

"Right."

This date is only to get the fact that we had a date. That's not why, but I didn't particularly decide where to go or anything.

I guess men should lead at times like this, but there are also no shards such as knowledge of dating spots in Hate and Reyes. In the first place, the King's Capital itself has always decided where to go, so it's sappy about other places.

When I become aware of it as a date, for some reason, words do not come out in a hurry, and my heart just quickens. However, that's the same for Raffy, who has been slightly reddish on her cheeks ever since she started walking. Sometimes it's an unfamiliar outfit, but most importantly, the term date gives rise to excessive tension.

Two clumsy people, neither of whom could utter a word, had formed an indescribable space. If you see this sight around Sylvia, you'll be sighing at him for holding his temples.

- It's just not Sylvia watching those two. A little behind where Lace and Raphy walk. It's the blonde who's walking at a certain distance. Even though it is summer, she wears glasses in clothing that hides to her mouth.

"Mom, what's he doing?"

"You mustn't look"

A full suspicious outfit, but he managed to escape the surrounding human reports by the handsome look that overflowed there. Nevertheless, what I'm doing is just a stalker, so either way, it doesn't change that I'm suspicious.

Fortunately, nervous and not the other way around, Race and Raffie had not noticed the presence of the area behind them and, as always, walked like robots in silence.

"Well, I'm glad the store's thriving."

It was thought that an awkward state of silence would continue for the rest of my life, but words from Raffie would somehow break the situation. As long as there is a topic, the conversation is hard to connect.

"You knew?

"If you're an adventurer, you'll come into my ear on your own. Rayce's products are important to us in the fight against demons."

"I see. I knew it was spreading through word of mouth."

It would be the same way of spreading the word that came out when I talked to Daisy. As long as some customers can be secured, customers who experience substandard performance of the product will spread the word on their own.

When that happens, you don't have to bother spending a lot of money to advertise. Besides, the effects of roteers and mites are still significant.

Mimi in particular was visible and helpful in attracting customers. Women and men alike are popular. Well, I'd like to see a talking fox with three tails if I didn't know anything about it.

Those various elements overlapped, making it like that gathering of guests.

"I hope this momentum continues"

"Heh heh, yeah, I don't think you'll ever calm down."

Unless there's much left to do, the momentum won't lose now. The performance of the goods is undoubtedly top in Wangdu. There's no way they can leave me alone. That is why we must strive to keep the present state going.

Thinking about it makes me think of the look on Rotier's face I saw before I went out.

"I wonder if he's okay..."

"Hmm? Who are you talking about?

"I met him when he came to the store a week ago, an employee of our store. Because I'm not here today."

"Oh, is that her? You were a stranger."

Even from Lace, Rotier is a strange person. Rarely has his expression changed, and his mouth count is small. However, emotions seem abundant just because they don't appear on the face. Only when you do something unpleasant does it appear on your face.

"How did you know him?

"Hmm, does it feel similar to me and Raffie? I helped him where he was falling."

Whether voluntary rescue or not is a delicate matter, the facts that helped remain unchanged.

"Were you going down..."

"I even had trouble staying at the inn that day because I was tricked into taking the money."

"You do look alike."

Thinking back to the first time we met, Raffy smiled bitterly. I can also remember Reis as if it had happened today. Talking about things like that from when we met until now, we were free from nature and tension.

The speed of the heart is the same as always, and the margins are restored to the extent that we can check the surrounding conditions.

Therefore, I notice.

"When you're a salamander... what's wrong, Raffie"

"... look behind you so you don't get noticed"

……

Because that's what he's going to say softly. So Rayce just moves his neck a little bit, as he was told, to check his back. And I sensed what Raffie was trying to say.

"There's something..."

"Ha... you're the same, Areal is"

You don't think they'll notice, it's tailed by an area in disguise that hasn't even been disguised. Hiding in the shadows of buildings and objects in discipline every time the Reis advance, he sneaks a peek at only his face.

But it was rather noticeable because the human gaze around him was piercing as much as I could think of. It was surprisingly conspicuous. I get a little embarrassed when I think I was so nervous that I didn't notice the array.

"Is he really an S-class adventurer...?

"Well, I'm not an S-class adventurer or an assassin... strength is real. And..."

Raffie hangs up the words once and looks behind her chills. I checked the back so Race wouldn't even find out when I got caught.

"Higu... Mother..."

"Are you lost? Look, don't cry, I'll find your mother with you."

There's a figure of Elial revealing his hidden mouth and also taking off his glasses to give voice to a lost girl crying.

"No, you should report it..."

Though the people around me whisper such things with Hisohisso, even though they act from good intentions.

"As you can see, it's not that bad either. Just a pain in the ass."

"That's an easy explanation..."

It was a description packed with all the human information called Elial. When Reis is laughing empty-handedly.

"Yeah, I'm not a suspicious person!

I hear voices like that from behind. When I looked at you unexpectedly, there was an appearance of an area surrounded by guards. Someone must have called it in.

I think it's a little pathetic because it's the result of trying to help me get lost, but I don't want to get involved.

"... yeah, go"

"Right..."

The two walk out without looking back.

"I mean, at that rate, I'm not going to give up."

"Well, I guess so."

Perhaps this time he was also trying to observe how Rayce and Raffie were dating to determine if they were really dating. Well, for some reason, I've ended up failing alone.

However, it is not hard to imagine this observation still going on, although it has ended in failure. Making Elial give up quickly will require a decisive 'something' to be able to say he is a lover.

Like holding hands - kissing, you think?

Think that far, Race, who looks at Raffy's face and accidentally blushes.

"What's up?

"No, it's nothing"

For once, Reyes is an old man, too. I am somewhat interested in such contact with the opposite sex. I just can't tell Raffie that, but I'll just calm her down by myself for now.

"Yeah, hey, Ray."

"Hmm?"

"You know the story of the annual festival in Wang Du, right?

"Oh, Sylvia said that when you went to see the dragon car"

I remember promising to come with me because there is a massive annual festival.

"That's it, Sylvia said to go with me and you..."

"... Seriously?

Even just a date couldn't even talk at first, but dating the two of us in the festival is medium level for Reis.

No, as much as time can be squashed in a stall or something, maybe it's easier.

I can see Sylvia smiling and backing me up for what happened.

"So, what do we do?

"Well, surely a festival is a classic date event."

If we had gone around the festival with Sylvia and the others, Elial's suspicions would not have disappeared. Given that, Sylvia's choice is correct.... Correct, but whether you appreciate it or not is another story.

"... I'm good, but what about Raffie?

"If I don't mind Reis either..."

Neither use clear language. I just don't say it to you. I mean okay under the circumstances.

"Well, festival...... let's go together"

"Yeah......"

The two exchange promises to go to the festival safely. Once again an awkward space tries to visit, but I realize there is a fudge reis.

"... or if Elial himself gets caught, then there's no point in dating from here."

"Sure..."

I don't particularly need to keep pretending to be a lover.

The two men who then unloaded their shoulders normally enjoyed their vacation.
