165 It's still a long way to rest.




 What Allen thought at first sight was nostalgia.
 It's not like he or she has returned after several years, but to feel nostalgic for my home, this time was also a very strong one.
 Or maybe it's because I came back from the empire and decided to leave rather quickly.

 While thinking about this, Allen let out a breath of relief as he looked at his home in a remote area.

You can't just relax here, though ......," he said.
There's a lot of things to do, you know.
"...... first, a report on the devil's case?
I know. The jurisdiction of that forest is separate from this area, so Leeds' absence is not a problem, and the man who rules there is ......, I think it's the Ray Graff frontier lord? Originally, I would have to report to the country as well, but I don't think it's necessary, because I'm sure the Reigraf frontier count will report to the country after the investigation.

 You just have to report all the other details and they will take care of it for you.

 The only problem is if the report itself is unbelievable. ...... I've heard of the Ray Graff frontier earl as a personality, although I've never met him directly, but I've heard of him as a person.
 At least it's not insulated.

The problem is the Amazons, after all.
I'm sure there's no problem if you live here, but if you're going somewhere else, you'll need to go through the proper procedures. Otherwise, I'm going to inform you about it.
...... Some of you said you wanted to live here.
I'm going to have to say no to that. There's still room to spare, but I'm afraid ...... is going to be a daily grind.
"Well, it looks like I'm going to be challenged every day again.
"People who don't live at ...... are likely to come too?
And that's exactly what I'm concerned about.

 Although they are supposed to live together as a result of this, Allen did not intend for them to do so.
 You will be able to find out the best way to get to know each other better, and since we have a surplus of land and houses, we can each live wherever we want.

By the way, do you have any idea how much land you have left or anything like that?
"...... depends on Isabelle? Maybe if Isabelle says she's going to stay, most of them will stay, and if she says she's going somewhere, they'll go with her.
Oh, they certainly adored you, or respected you, or something like that.
Hmm. Well, I guess I should ask Isabelle's opinion first, rather than everyone else's. I mean, this is something we can do a little at a time. Well, this is something we can work on little by little.

 It would be better to be able to report back what you have put together when Leeds comes back, but if you were able to go to King's Landing as planned, you should still be in King's Landing by now.
 There will be a reunion with your family, and you'll be back a little later.

 It shouldn't be a problem if you take it a little slower.

"Oh, speaking of which, is Milene good?
"...... what?
"So the people back home were rescued safely, right? It seems like they're all in one place together, but I'm wondering if Milene doesn't need to go there.
"...... Milene, disturbed?

 I'm sure you'll be able to find the right one for you.
 It's not that kind of thing, of course, so you can shake your head with a bitter smile.

It's not that I'm in your way or that I want you to leave, I'm just thinking that if the people who originally lived in your village were doing this, then maybe Milene would want to go there too.
If you want to stay at ......, I'd like to. And ...... probably won't be welcomed by Milene if she goes.
What do you mean? It looked like we were getting along well on the road. ......?
...... people think that maybe Milene is no longer part of the village because she is no longer considered a member of ....... In a way, she is no longer part of the village.

 It's a good idea to have a good idea of what you're going to do with it.
 If you think of the frontier area as a large community, it might mean that both Milene and Isabelle are part of the same community: ...... Well, that might be unique to Amazoness.

"Hmm, if Milene wants to come back, I'll dictate to her?
"...... is not necessary. It's more of a problem.
"Oh, you're in trouble. ...... So I'll just stop being honest about it.

 I'm not trying to annoy Milene, but I'm trying to help her.
 There's no point in getting her in trouble.

...... I'm going to go to ...... and let Noel know what's going on. I'll check in with Noel and see how he's doing.
"Uh, yeah, I guess so. You didn't seem happy when you went, but thank goodness you might be cooped up on your own.
"...... asked for,

 Nodding, he watched Milene leave the mansion somehow, and as the door closed, her figure disappeared.
 Then, well," he muttered.

I'll see what I can do: ......
I thought we were going to go to Isabel and her friends first. It's going to take the longest time, and since it's past noon, they're not going to carry the report on the demons right now,
"I was thinking about it at first. But then I heard Isabelle's story and I thought it would be easier and they would want to rest.
"Do they need a break? It only looks like you've been in good health all along.

 Indeed, the Amazons were in good spirits along the way.
 Even a child could walk all day long, and if you prepared a bath for them, they would come in with cheers.
 Considering that they had challenged Allen to join forces with them, they had more energy than they could handle.

"I wouldn't say she had a lot of energy, in fact she had a lot of energy. But that doesn't mean she wasn't tired, does it?
Ah, ...... If you ask me, you're one of those people who are physically fit but tired.

 I don't deny the word, but that doesn't mean I wanted to take a break.
 In fact, the mental fatigue is still there, but not to that extent.

 But the girls had been attacked in their homeland, captured by demons and forced to use them.
 I don't know if they are aware of it, but it must have been very hard on their minds.
 He needs a few days of rest, not just today.
 It's a good idea to be able to have a good time with your friends and family.



 Well, anyhow, you should give them a good rest if you can.

Then why don't you take a break too?
"No, so I told you I was ......
It's true that you're stronger in many ways than the rest of us. You're not tired, either. It's just easy to get into trouble, so I'll take a break when I can,
Hmm ...... Well, if Henriette said that much to you, I don't blame you.

 After all, Henriette is the one who knows Allen best.
 It was Henriette who told you to take a break.
 Then you should rest quietly for now.

"--What?

 The moment I decided to do so, I felt a strange feeling in my pocket.
 However, not in a physical sense, but by digging in his bosom, he pulled out something that looked like an ornament.
 You will find a red stone embedded in the end of a silver chain, and as you look at the stone, you can't help but squint.

...... Allen, that's ......
Yes. ...... It's an emergency contact grimoire. I kept one of them just in case. ......

 The reaction to this means that something could have happened to Leeds and the others.
 I hesitated for just a moment.
 I immediately touched the stone, and instantly someone's will flowed into me.

 It's for emergency contact, so it can't be used to communicate with both parties.
 You'll just be fed information about the other party one-sidedly.

 But it was enough to know it was an emergency.

 --They've taken Leeds.

 As he listened to the information Beatrice had given him, Allen let out a long, deep breath, being careful not to break the stone in his hand, as he relaxed his hand just a little bit.
