"Who?"

Roa, who won't let his guard down. Taura keeps her sword at the ready.

"Oh, uh... This is Master Har-hammer. He's been a great help to me since I joined the Alchemy Society..."

"This is Halhammer. Nice to meet you, my little beauties. Rust is a good man, a simpleton and a research idiot," says Halhammer, pointing at me.

"...... you misunderstand something, don't you, Master Halhammer?"

"What are you talking about? What's wrong with the fact that you are a simple-minded research idiot who has never had a woman's heart before? Well, that part about my lack of feminine charm seems to have changed a lot since I left my new job!

"What, did Reb Hulhammer quit too?

I was surprised more than I could argue with him.

"Oh, it's been a year since I left. I don't want to be kept in a place like that. What, did Rust quit the association too?

Yes, a friend from school invited me to work with him. I'm sorry. I didn't contact you.

"It's okay, it's okay. I'm the one who didn't call. Besides, it's much better to be grateful to me than to be rotting in that place for nothing."

"Thank you very much. It is a great relief to hear you say that. I really wanted to protect the basic research department that Dr. Halhammer left to us, but we were not strong enough and the department was eventually dismantled.

"Well, that sounds like a lot of work. You know. What matters is people. An organization is only as good as its people. They're just vessels. So don't worry about it. What about your research? What happened after you left?"

"Yes, in fact, I have made more progress in my research since I left."

Well, I'd love to know more about that...

"Gohon. Rabbi Rust? Is it going to be a long story?

And Taura coughed.

"No. It's going to be a little bit...?"

Taura stared at me with a smile in response to my reply.

A silent smile.

His face is so well formed that it is powerful.

I involuntarily avert my gaze and see Rohr, who is also expressionless. Her eyes are cold as she stares at me through her glasses.

Haruhammer pats me on the shoulder and laughs at me.

"Ha, ha, ha! Hilarious. Good luck, Wakodo! Come on, we can't stand around talking. Let me buy you a cup of tea. And I'll explain to you why I'm here," he said the last line to Roa and Taura.

I take him up on his offer and run after him, trying to get away from the place.

Roa and Taura followed us, looking the same as usual.
