36 Episode 36: The girls-only gathering has the scent of wine.txt





 According to the story, Rebecca came to Hetty, who had her own mercenary group, as a prospective member, and the two have been friends since then. Since the leader of the group was a woman, Rebecca naturally blended in with Hetty-san's mercenary group, which had many female warriors, and no one noticed that she was a spy until the end. I didn't expect her to have a double job as a knight and a scout," says Hetty.
 When I asked her about this, I found out that double or triple jobs are usually close to each other, and not often do they have both jobs at the same time.
 And in Rebecca's case, it's a combat job, and also - I don't know if this applies in this world as well - brave, generous, loyal... ...There is even a word for 'chivalry', and a knight is supposed to be the most 'beautiful' of all the combat professions.
 The other vocation is 'scouting' - in other words, spying, scouting, or covertly, if you want to put it crudely, 'sneaking around'.
 In fact, it doesn't seem to have a good image in this world as well, and Rebecca, who has the vocation of a knight, which is considered to be meaningless to women, had a bad feeling about it, "Not really.
 My vocation as an impostor is a bit of a misnomer, I must say that my vocation is a bit of a misnomer.


Becky joined before the Elbaste conflict and left in the middle of the conflict, saying things like 'I'm leaving because I'm pregnant' ....... They were all successfully fooled, Mr. Giraud.

 Hetty poured a handful of wine and stoked it all at once. It's really fast paced, or maybe it's just the wildness of a former mercenary .......

''You looked fishy for that.

Hmm. Well, you know. Becky suddenly said she was pregnant.

 Hetty stared at Rebecca with half-eyed eyes and poured wine into Rebecca's cup. By the way, this is already the third bottle of wine (in a decanter).

What does that mean?

'Huh, we all talked about it at the camp. You seemed like a particularly love-struck damsel among them.

 Oh ......, Rebecca had such a time ....... I don't know how long ago it was, but I think it was about 5 years ago, or maybe it was a surprisingly big love affair with Mr. Shero.

 The drinking continues.
 Deanna and Marina basically listened meekly, hardly participating in the conversation. Well, it can't be helped because this time it's meant to be like a reunion (...) for Rebecca and Hetty-san. I'm like a bonus too. ......

 Rebecca was originally a member of a different mercenary group ...... from Hetty-san, a place called the Scarlet Wedge (Scarlet Wedge), which was famous at the time. At the time of the Elbaste conflict, Hetty-san and her group were enemies in camp, but once the conflict ended, they were mercenaries with no enemies or anything else. Rebecca told Hetty that she was the only one who told her about her vocation and the fact that she was spying on him.
'As for me, I was comfortable in Hetty's place and she and I got along very well. I was comfortable with Hetty and we got along well together," says Rebecca. Well, a spy who tells people he's a spy is not worth a d*mn ....... This may be the dilemma of a vocation that requires the opposing characteristics of a knight and a scout.

 While talking, a variety of dishes were being brought in.
 Meat! Meat! Meat again!
 I don't know if it's Hetty's taste, but the meat rate is high! Oven-roasted, spit-roasted, boiled meat soup, and meat sashimi. Meat on meat, meat on meat, meat on meat! You're not even close!
 But all the dishes are really good. The taste is simpler than the food at the inn's restaurant, but the ingredients are better and the atmosphere of the restaurant helps, but the taste is intoxicating. I don't mean that I drink too much beer.
 Some of the meat was heavy, some was light, some was crunchy, some melted, and some was a bit too chewy. Japan ...... or maybe it's not as simple as the earth, where most of the meat is cows, pigs and birds. The wildlife is probably abundant, and the custom of eating wild fowl is probably strong as well.
 However, especially the sashimi of this meat is excellent. It is good to eat raw meat because restaurants do not serve Yukke or beef tern recently in Japan.
 But speaking of raw meat, it's food poisoning. I'm not sure I'd want to get food poisoning in this other world, but I would die. ...... Let's hope the sterilizing effect of wine is worth it.

 It's a good idea to be able to have a good time with them.

I'm not sure if I'm going to be able to find out what's going on in the world. I'd like to ask you ahead of time, as I have some furniture to arrange.

'What? How did you come to that conclusion? You can't live with a married woman, as you'd expect.

 I'm so surprised that I'm about to spew raw meat. Come to think of it, I wonder what kind of relationship he thinks me and Rebecca have with each other. Doesn't he even know we're married?
 No, maybe it was a surprise. A married woman? I stare at Rebecca, wondering. Rebecca lowers her eyebrows.
 Is this the kind of situation where your old friend got married at some point and didn't tell you about it?

'...... Becky, what do you mean? You were married? ...... I thought for sure I was going to remember Isaac: ......

What? Haha. Oh no, well, hey.

 Mr. Sloppy Rebecca. I wonder if Isaac is Rebecca's former lover. I've been told that the deceased leader of the mercenary group is apparently the same Isaac who has been mentioned frequently.
 I'm not sure if it's a good idea for you to be able to get a good idea of what's going on in the world, but I'm sure it's a good idea for you to have a good idea of what's going on in the world. Well, it's a common story, isn't it?

It's not a good idea. I'm sure you're not lying to Jirou-sama about something.

I'm not getting lucky! I didn't say anything.

'Hmm. Master Jiro, is Becky really married? Who is it?

Is it okay for me to answer this question? His name is Shero, and he was the deputy leader of a mercenary group. He's a very nice guy and helps me out a lot.

'Oh ......, I see, that's what I mean (・・・・・・)....... Becky, why don't you tell the truth?

'Well, no, I thought I'd notice that ......, and I didn't notice it right away, but I didn't notice it at all, so it's not like I'm cheating on ....... I didn't make it clear - ....... I'm intentionally trying to look like that (・・・・・・) to the people on the street. It's a lot of trouble when people think you're a single person.

 What is this story? Explain to me what the hell this is all about!

Shero Roth is the strongest soldier and second-in-command of the Scarlet Wedge, feared as a 'monster' (Juggernaut). He is a combat madman ...... who uses most of the spirit stones in his hands to keep him young (・・・・・). And

 Mr. Hetty smiled prankishly at me, who had a hathena mark on his head, and then spoke up to continue.

'It's Becky's real father,'







 ◇◆◆◆◇





 What does that mean?
 You mean that Shero and Rebecca, who you thought were husband and wife, are actually father and son, and they've been living in secret in there? No, ......, there's nothing wrong with that, but ....... I heard that the reason she looks so young there is because she was "rejuvenated" by using spirit stones .......
 Looking back, it doesn't seem to occur to me that it does, and I don't think Rebecca was right, and I don't think she ever explicitly stated that they were a "married couple". I was just mistaken on my own.
 According to Rebecca, though, she makes people in town think they are a married couple: ....... Why is that?

'I'm honestly surprised. All I could think of was that Shero and Rebecca are a married couple: ....... But indeed, if you think about it, they both look a lot alike. This was a blind spot, or maybe ...... I didn't realize it. But why did you try to make people in town think you were a couple, Rebecca? What can I say, I'm afraid I'm going to miss out on meeting them.

'After the Commander died, I didn't plan to fall in love or get married anymore. I was thinking that I didn't want to be alone for the rest of my life.

 I wonder if it was a sense of mourning after the death of the leader or something like that, or, in Japanese terms, like a nun becoming ....... I'm a little curious, so I'll ask about their relationship.
 By the way, this is my seventh wine decanter. That's a lot of wine.

Do you mind? What was my relationship with the Commander?

Becky is so cutesy. You have a one-sided love affair with Isaac. No, it's more accurate to say ...... that you were just a fan.

Just a ...... fan?

Isaac Mitley, the leader of the Scarlet Wedge. He is a legendary mercenary who boasts of being undefeated and has two vocation that are rarely heard of - 'Holy Knight (Paladin)' and 'General'. It's not just a matter of time before you get to the point where you'll be able to get your hands on it. He was like a character in a story called ....... It's a good thing, because there were even girls who wanted to join the team because of him. I'm sure that Becky was a member of her father's team, but she was still a maiden in love with a damsel in distress, and she fell in love at first sight with Isaac, who was like the heroic hero of a dragon-slaying play.

Hey, hey! Don't make up stories for me! That's about right, though!

It's okay if it's not.

 ...... I see.
 You're a holy knight and a handsome man who is a general's legion leader. You're in love with that. I'm in love with him too. I heard he's already deceased, but I wanted to see him once. Like a super hot guy from another world. ...... The dagger in Rebecca's house was "the Commander's gift from the Emperor," and they were a pretty powerful mercenary group, after all.

 ...... Or rather, Shero-san's explanation before that was also great. The "monster (juggernaut)" is ....... I'm sure he's a good-natured older brother, but I'm sure he's super strong in battle. I was going to ask him to teach me how to fight comfortably, but I was kind of put off by it.
 Or, if Hetty-san was around, she could teach me while she was there.

 After that, Rebecca and Hetty's fornicating talk continued, and they ended up going at it until closing time.
 It's one hell of a big tiger, both of them.
