The end of the strike was announced, and the many tents were cleared away one after another and disappeared.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

Watching this scene, I put away my own tent.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

Beside me, Mr. Nooga and Mr. Sifal are cleaning up their tents.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

From everywhere, I hear them expressing their joy at being able to return to the town and that they were able to finish the work without being injured.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

Looking at the group, it seemed that they were returning to the town one after another after they had finished their preparations for the trip.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

We didn't get a chance to talk. It's a pity.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

Meera-san approaches.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

I am a little nervous at the sight of her.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

She says, "Thank you for everything you have done for me."

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

I bow my head and thank them, careful not to behave in a strange manner.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

Mr. Sifal and Mr. Nooga are nearby.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

It's all right.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

I'll show you the town when we get to Ottorwa.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

...... if you have time, please."

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

I don't know what to do.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

When I get to Otorwa town, I will be alone.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

Should I leave town right away, after all?

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

But he said there is a possibility that someone is watching us, so what should we do?

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

Ivy plans to stay with us for a while."

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

Hm?

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

What does it mean?

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

I look at Mr. Nooga, but he is still hurriedly preparing for his trip.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

He says, "Oh, that's right. ...... Well, let me know when you have some free time. Just tell the guild."

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

Yes."

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

I hear a voice calling Meera.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

I look toward the voice and see Meera's brothers waving at me from a distance.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

See you later, Ivy.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

Yes, sir. See you."

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

I wave back at Meera, who smiles and waves.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

I am naturally relieved to see him move away from me.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

We managed to avoid being alone until today.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

Since that dinner, someone from the Sword of Fire has always been with me.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

Other than that, Mr. Lo and Mr. Maalreek were also there.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

'Here you go~'

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

Mr. Rattler, who had been forced to participate in the work of the defeat squad, returned.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

Behind him was Mr. Seiselk and, for some reason, the four members of the defeat squad.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

Thank you for your hard work."

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

What a leader, he's such a brute!"

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

You're still going strong. We've got a lot of work to do.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

No!

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

Ha ha ha, Ivy, I'll walk back to town with you, okay?"

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

Pleased to meet you."

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

It would be reassuring if the defeat squad were with us.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

I bowed my head, thinking that maybe it was for me.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

For some reason, everyone patted me on the head.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

I had combed my hair in the morning, but when I thought it would be shaggy, Mr. Lo fixed it.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

For some reason, his hands seemed familiar to me.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

Mr. Lo, you seem to be used to something, don't you?"

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

Really?"　Yeah, maybe it's because I'm doing my sons' hair."

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

I didn't know you had a family.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

Do you have a son?"

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

You two are adorable!

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

When Mr. Lo talks about his family, it somehow adds warmth to his voice.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

I kind of like that.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

Let's get going."

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

The leader's voice gets us moving.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

We are all adults, so we must keep up.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

Poor Sola, she's going to be in the bag for the time being.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

I move my hand to gently stroke her from outside the bag.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

I'm sorry, Sola.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

............

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

The two-day trip to town is going well and we are almost there.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

Ivy, that's the town of Ottoruwa where we live."

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

I follow Mr. Rattler's gaze and look in the direction of the town.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

The town, seen from the top of a slightly elevated hill, was larger than I had imagined.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

It's an amazing ...... big town."

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

Right!　I'm proud of this town."

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

With Mr. Rattler taking me by the hand, we headed for the town in a bit of a hurry.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

If we hurry, Ivy will fall over.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

I hear Seiselk's voice from behind me.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

I hear Mr. Seiselk's voice behind me, "Oh, sorry, was I early?"

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

Just a little, but I'm fine."

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

I feel as if the past two days of travel have brought our relationship a little closer again.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

Come to think of it, the leaders of the group were called the Thunder Kings.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

When I said I thought the strike team was the name, the leader was extremely unfaithful.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

He seemed to have an attachment to the name "Thunder King," and I felt very bad about it.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

The town of Otorwa also has a magnificent gate and a gatekeeper.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

When the gatekeeper saw Mr. Rattler, he raised one hand in greeting.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

He said, "Thank you for your hard work in defeating them. ...... where did you get him?"

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

Kidnapped?

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

'I wouldn't do that!　We need to go through the formalities, over here."

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

Procedure?

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

What's that about?

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

I was dragged to a small room.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

There, I was handed a piece of paper.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

I read what was written on the paper and found that there was a space to write [name, town of origin, purpose].

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

What should I do about the town I am from?

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

Come to think of it, I haven't mentioned that I escaped from Latomi village.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

Should I write it down?

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

Oh, I didn't read it. My bad."

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

No, it's all right. Do I have to write about that town I'm from?"

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

Hmm?" ...... I didn't hear you say that. Where?"

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

...... is the village of Latomi.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

Is it Latomi?"

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

I hear a voice different from Mr. Lattrua's, and I rush to look in the direction of the voice.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

There, I see a man wearing the same clothes as the gatekeeper.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

Thinking that he must be from the vigilante group, I nodded my head, making eye contact with him.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

'I see. Is anyone vouching for you?"

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

Guarantee ...... I wonder if you mean Captain Oguto?

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

But how would they prove it?

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

Let's see, to Captain Ogto of the village of Latome."

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

Did you make anything?"

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

"Accounts at the Commerce Guild."

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

Can I see that?

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

Yes, sir.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

He takes the small bag he uses as a purse from the bag around his waist and pulls out a white plate.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

'Can you bring it to me near this stone?'

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

Is ...... okay?

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

Will it show what's inside?

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

Hmm?"　Oh, it's okay. I just want to make sure it's real."

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

Yes."

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

When I brought it close to the stone, the stone glowed white and disappeared.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

"No problem."

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

Huh.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

What is going on?

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

I looked at Mr. Rattler because I was not sure.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

Then he looked a little surprised.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

Ivy was a guarantor for Captain Oguto. That's amazing."

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

What?

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

Don't you know?　Captain Oguto was a great adventurer."

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

I heard you were an adventurer.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

Yeah, a lot of people admire that.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

Sorry. Can you just write down your name and purpose?"

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

Uh, yes.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

On a piece of paper, what is your name and the purpose of your trip ...... purpose?

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

A dump?

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

I can't write that, uh, I guess I'm on a journey.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

He laughed a little when I handed him the paper.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

I wonder why?

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

I've never seen anyone write "on the road. Yes."

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

Something is handed to me.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

I looked at it and saw that it looked like a permit made of wooden sticks.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

It is needed to enter and leave the town. And give it back to me when you leave town.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

Yes, sir. Thank you.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

I wonder if a large town needs a permit because there are more people coming in and out.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

That's great.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

Are you done?

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

When I turned to look at the voice, the leader was standing at the entrance of the room.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

It's over. Let's go, Ivy.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

Yes, sir. Thank you very much."

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

"Oh."

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

For some reason, the man who gave me the permit looks at the leader with a surprised expression.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

Do I know him?

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

I'm not sure, but Mr. Rattler rushes me out of the room with one head bowed.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

Everyone was outside the room.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

Apparently I made them wait a bit.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

I said, "I'm sorry. I'm sorry I'm late.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

Ivy knew Captain Ogto from the next village over.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

Is that so?"

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

Yes, sir. He vouched for me.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

Guarantor?

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

I escaped from the village of Latomi.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

Latomi. I've heard about you. I'm sorry to hear about your troubles.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

The leader gently pats his head.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

When they hear the name of Latomi village, everyone looks a little distressed.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

I don't know what kind of condition they are in now, but it could be terrible.
