Everyone was happy to see me back home safely. When I got home, I felt relieved and exhausted, so I said no to the three of them and left the details of my trip for tomorrow.

　The next morning, after having breakfast with the others, I went straight to explaining the events in the capital. The next morning, after breakfast with everyone, I went straight to explaining the events in the capital. I wasn't sure if I should explain Karel's end, but Deanna said I could, so I told her honestly.
So ...... you're right.
　I'm not sure if I should explain about Karel's death, but Deanna said I could tell her. I'm not sure what to say.
I'm sure you'll agree with me. He used to play with me when I was little. He was good friends with my father and brother Leon, and of course with brother Marius.
　Deanna speaks in hushed tones. We listened in silence.
"I never thought it would come to this. ......
　Deanna covers her face with her hands. Rike and Samija are comforting her. Didn't she originally have a bad relationship with her family? Was it just on the surface, or did she actually have a lot on her mind, or did something happen that made her suddenly become that way? There's no way to know now.

I'm sorry I'm so upset.
　Deanna said, calming down after a while.
"Don't worry about it. I don't think I'd get along with someone who'd be okay with being told their own brother is dead. Besides, it doesn't matter what he did before he died, once he's dead, we're all the same. When you go back to the other side, this will be kept a secret, so mourn him while you can.
"Thank you, Mr. Eizo.
　Deanna smiled. I waved my hand in the air to hide my embarrassment.

"Oh, and by the way. I'll send Deanna to the capital first thing tomorrow morning.
"What?
　Deanna said in a surprised voice. No, of course you will, now that the mess is over.
The mess is over and there's going to be a feast to celebrate the succession to the throne. How is it possible that Deanna won't be there?
That's true, but ......
Well, I'll be at the feast.
　That's right. It would be strange if the guests who are here just disappeared as if they were saying goodbye because things were over. The Marquis will be at the feast," Marius told me. If you say so, I can't not join in. I'm supposed to join the party as well as send Deanna off.
　When I said so, Deanna agreed to join me.
"So you'll be gone for a few days?
"That's right. Sorry about Samija and Rike.
No, I'm not. But if you don't come back soon, Samija might get upset.
"What are you talking about, Rike?
　Rike says with a laugh, and Camija, with a red face (I think), snaps at him. The place was filled with laughter, and the conversation ended.

　I'm going out tomorrow, so I'm going to do some blacksmithing for today. It's been a few days since I've been in my workshop, but perhaps it's because it's only been a few days since I've been here, but I haven't lost any of my skill. I was able to make the "high-end model" as usual. Rike and his friends, who must have been working together for the past few days, are making the "general model" quickly. I guess this is the last time I'll see them.
　After blacksmithing, I'm off to practice with Diana. She's not as good as she looks, but she's definitely getting better. At this rate, she may eventually become a better swordswoman than I am. It's a pity that I can't see him do so, but I hope he will continue to do well back home.
　I'm going to have a big dinner tonight. Tomorrow, Samija and Rike will not be able to see Diana. The three of them ate dinner, talking more cheerfully than ever, perhaps sensing the atmosphere, or perhaps they had become friends in my absence.

　The next morning, after completing our morning routine earlier than usual, Deanna and I were walking through the forest. I was carrying Deanna's luggage. Since it was a sudden escape, we didn't have much luggage, and my strength was light enough to carry it. We were able to get out of the forest much earlier than when we went into town.
　Not long after we left the forest, Camilo's wagon arrived. Camilo and the shopkeeper were riding in the carriage. Deanna and I climbed into the back of the stopped wagon.
"Hello?
Hey. Deanna, I know this ride is uncomfortable, but please bear with us.
No, I've been forced to ride with you. And thanks to my brother for his help. Thank you very much.
"No, no, we merchants are stingy, if there's a profit, we'll take it.
　Camilo said modestly. When I saw this, I grinned, thinking I had seen something unusual.
"You'll have to remember that later, Eizo.
　I shrug my shoulders. I shrugged my shoulders and said, "Oh, scary, scary, scary," and the carriage departed in laughter.

　The journey to the capital was uneventful. There was a checkpoint at the gate when we entered, but thanks to the bill Camilo had shown us, the check only lasted for a brief glance. I'll ask Camilo what he showed me.


"Oh, it's a merchant's tag from the House of Amur. It'll come in handy for a lot of things.
Of course.
　Oh, Camilo has the backing of the Count's family, right? I guess he's going to make good use of it in the future.

　After an hour or so, I passed through the other gate (again, the tag was very effective) and arrived at the Amur mansion, one of the few places I knew in this city.
　The carriage stops and I get out first. Holding out my hand.
"Here you are, Miss Deanna.
　"What are you talking about?
"What are you talking about?
　But she firmly took my hand and got off.
　Now, let's leave the rest to the man of the house. As I unloaded Diana's luggage from the back of the truck, I looked at her and saw that she was surrounded by the servant women I had seen before, who were happy to see her home. It's been a long time. I handed the luggage to one of the servants surrounding me and another servant led me inside.
