It's been that long already!　It's a shame, because I have a lot more research to do. ....... I'm so sorry.


　Lan was particularly disappointed that they were going back to the village.


But then there's ...... Mr. Ware!　I'm looking forward to hearing many stories from Mr. Ware back in the village.
I can't wait to hear many stories from Mr. Ware when I get back to the village. ...... This human is really strange. I'm sure he can't see me, but he's looking right at me.

　Ware was horrified to see Mr. Lan staring at him.
　He was not a fighter, and Ware could do whatever he wanted with him, but he couldn't help but laugh at how afraid he seemed to be of Ran.




"You have more enthusiasm than you do for me. I knew you were concerned about Ware, the spirit of the past.
Fresne: ....... I'll take your place. I don't want to be assaulted by that thing.
No, you can't. It's Ware that Mr. Lan is interested in.



　Freneh and Ware are having a sneaky conversation.
　Ware is a little bit bigger than Fresne, so it looks like Ware is the older sister and Fresne is the younger sister.


　By the way, Ran seems to be having more fun since she came to this site. I was happy to see her smiling happily, saying that she really loves to learn things like this.




I wonder how the village is doing.
"Well... Maybe it's changed.
Maybe that children's playground will be bigger.
Yeah. I can't wait to see what Kayu and his friends do with it.


　I'm looking forward to seeing how Kayu and the others are doing." Gaius and I have a conversation about how the village will look like.


　Even though I was away from the village for a while, the village would change. I felt sad that I couldn't see the changes, but at the same time, I was looking forward to seeing how the village would change while we were at the ruins.


　The only changes I can imagine in the village are that the playground will be bigger and the stores will have more goods.
　But there may be more changes waiting for us when we return. When I think about it, I'm excited to see what's going to happen.


"I wonder how Lumiha is doing.
"Gururururururu (I wonder if Rumiha is doing well)" "Gururururururu (I wonder if Rumiha is doing well)


　That's how Rilha and Kamiha talked about their daughter, Rumiha.


　This is probably the first time I've been away from my gryphons for so long. The more I thought about it, the more I wanted to see everyone right away.



"Mr. Lan, let's hurry up and go home.
"Hmm?　What's the matter? Do you want to go home so badly?
"Yes. When I thought about ...... village, I wanted to go home soon and see everyone. The ruins are fun, but I still want to go back to the village.


　When I told her that, she laughed and gently patted my head.



For Lerunda, the village has become a place to return to, hasn't it? I'm glad to see that the village has become a place for all of us to return to - a place we can call home. My hometown is the Kingdom of Fairytlov, but the village has become a place for me to return to.

　I'm happy that it has become a place for me to return to," she said.


　It's good to have a place to go back to, a place I want to go back to, I thought to myself as I talked with Ran.





"Let's go home. Everyone.
"Hey, why is the guy who was the most reluctant to go home just now talking so much as if nothing had happened?
...... You're bothering me. Nilusi. It's a good idea to take a look at the website to see if there is anything you can do to help. You can come back to these ruins as often as you like, and you can hear as many stories as you like from Lord Ware.


　Ran-san looked around at everyone and said, "Let's go home," and then he and Nilshi started arguing again.
　They all looked at her as if they couldn't help it and laughed.



　After Ran and Nilsi calmed down, we started to walk towards the village.


　I wanted to get back home as soon as possible, but I and the others couldn't rush home like that.
　Riding gryphons, making magical wings to fly, and using body-enhancing magic - not all of us could do that, and we had to return at the same pace as before.



　I slowly made my way back to the village, talking with Gaius and the others.






"I'm home!


　And then we would return to the village and say in a loud voice, "I'm home!
　And then everyone in the village would smile at us and say, "Welcome home.



　--The girl returns to the village.
