Good night."

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

I found Pria walking down the main street and called out to her.

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

'Ah, good night.'

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

You're tired, aren't you?"

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

The young guys will run wild a little bit," he said. How about you?"

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

Pith started training the apprentices.

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

Pria makes a disgusted face at my words.

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

Well, if Pis really trains them, half of the apprentices will be gone.

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

I understand the temptation to run away, but I wish he would try a little harder.

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

That's about the level of ...... No, that's the level of running away.

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

Maybe I should tell them to hold back a little more.

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

We don't want to lose all of our apprentices.

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

Well, Ivy and the druid are getting ready to go on their trip.

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

Oh, and I paid for the magic stone.

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

I laugh at Pria's question.

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

'Oh, it went off without a hitch. And those two guys didn't even know how many magic stones we offered them.

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

Pria stares at me next to her, perhaps surprised by my words.

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

It's weird to be stared at by this guy.

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

It's creepy, don't look at me."

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

Oh, what's that? That's not what I'm talking about. Is it true you didn't keep track?"

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

When I had the neighborhood watch come over today to give them the money, I showed them the documents and they were both surprised. I showed them the documents and they were both surprised.

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

Pria is stunned.

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

That's not surprising.

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

He had given them such a high level of magic stones, but he didn't know how many he had given them.

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

I was a little puzzled by their reaction.

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

If it were anyone other than those two, they would definitely know the number.

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

I can't rule out the possibility that they might have added to the number.

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

In the first place, who would offer such a high level of magic stone?

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

Other than those two.

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

Are Ivy and Druid okay?"

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

Looking at the two of you, you're worried that someone is going to cheat you.

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

I know, because I thought about it too.

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

They weren't worried because I was the one they gave it to."

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

Wow, what the heck is that? I'm jealous."

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

Ha ha ha, that's good."

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

Pria's face contorts in frustration.

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

This guy is a fan of Ivy's.

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

He must be really frustrated.

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

I mean, I'm a fan of Ivy's too, so when he told me, I almost screamed out of happiness.

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

I managed to hold it back so as not to make an ugly scene.

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

I was so happy to hear that, I almost screamed. I'm going to miss you.

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

Pria sighs.

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

Don't be."

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

We've been through a lot this winter, haven't we?

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

Ah."

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

When I think back to the fall and winter, it's all so embarrassing.

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

All sorts of problems came rushing in all at once, and I couldn't keep up with my feelings.

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

I was frustrated at my own inadequacy, but I couldn't stop because I was in a position where I had to move forward.

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

When the information about Snow's flower was gathered, I thought this village was finished.

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

The cave was blocked, we couldn't get the magic stone, and we didn't have enough magic stone in stock to get through the winter.

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

The more I thought about it, the more stuck I became.

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

I even foolishly thought that this village was going to collapse because I became the leader.

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

That thought made me narrow-minded and unable to see the world around me.

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

I even took it out on Ivy and the druid.

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

And yet, they offered me the magic stone.

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

They are strange people, aren't they?"

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

I think I made the worst possible impression on him. Staring at me, taking it out on me."

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

I guess I'm kind of the same way."

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

My head hurts as I remember the actions I took against Ivy and Mr. Druid.

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

That one is not there.

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

'And yet they offered me a magic stone. I was terrified at first when I saw that level of magic stone. I wondered what they were going to ask for."

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

When I heard the story, I definitely thought there was more to it than meets the eye.

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

It was really an unnecessary worry.

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

If I had looked at the two of them properly, I would have understood how ridiculous that worry was.

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

Still, in my position, I had to think about a lot of things, so I guess it was inevitable.

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

I'm thankful I met those two.

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

Yeah, we'd have gone under if we hadn't met."

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

He nodded at Pria's words.

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

I really appreciate the two of you.

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

Hey, how about going out for a drink after all these years?"

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

I like that."

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

At Pria's suggestion, we go out for a drink after a long time.

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

Winter is not over yet, but we no longer get a lot of snow.

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

I'm glad, because that alone will save me a lot of work.

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

Can we go to our usual place?"

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

This is one of the best drinking establishments in the village.

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

They have a reputation for being delicious and inexpensive.

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

The restaurant is located on the main street, so it is easy to get there.

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

Welcome."

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

A voice calls out to me as I enter the restaurant.

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

I look around and see that it seems to be thriving and crowded.

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

What?　Is that Mr. Druid?"

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

At the sound of Pria's voice, I turn my gaze.

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

Indeed, Mr. Druid is drinking alone.

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

I check around, but I don't see Ivy.

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

'It wouldn't hurt if I went over to say hello, would it?

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

Pria started to really worry.

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

Surely we're a nuisance if we're here to drink alone.

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

When we stopped in the doorway of the restaurant, we would see Mr. Druid.

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

Then Mr. Druid laughs and raises his hand.

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

I was relieved and was about to raise my hand when Pria approached the druid with great speed.

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

He seemed a little surprised by that, but he responded to Pria with a smile.

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

Moreover, he offers her a seat next to him.

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

It looks like I'm going to have a good drink today.

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

I'm sorry to interrupt.

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

The seat opposite Pria was empty, so I sat there.

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

It's us on the left and right with the druid on the other side.

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

I'm lonely when I'm alone, and when it's just the two of us, we know each other so well that we can have a good time drinking.

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

I don't know if Mr. Druid is serious or not, but I am glad.

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

Um, Ivy, you're not coming in today.

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

Sorry, I think they're already asleep at the inn today. I was tired."

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

Is something wrong?"

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

Mr. Druid shakes his head at my worried face.

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

Nothing happened, and you're tired?

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

I went to pick out some spring clothes, and I think I got tired."

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

Picking out clothes?

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

Ivy is a solid woman.

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

We both feel uncomfortable when Mr. Druid chuckles at Pria's words.

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

What is different?

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

It takes time for women to choose their clothes, though.

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

'It's a little different than what you two are thinking. Ivy isn't used to shopping for anything other than the bare necessities."

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

I tilt my head at Mr. Druid's words.

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

I don't understand what he means.

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

Ivy has had to put up with a lot in order to survive.

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

Sadness comes over Mr. Druid's face.

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

Is it to live?"

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

Pria looks a little grim.

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

'Oh, to live. That boy has been fighting to live ever since he was much younger."

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

Have you been fighting to live since you were much younger?

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

Are you an orphan?

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

But then the church and guilds would lend a hand.

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

Um, she-"

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

Pria cuts off the words.

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

I guess she doesn't know how far to go.

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

'I can't go into details without Ivy's permission, but I've been living like that for so long I can't say I want what I want.

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

You have money."

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

The money for the magic stone has come in, so they should be able to afford it.

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

Besides, there is probably some money that he got from crushing a criminal organization.

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

It's not about the money, but the feeling.

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

I see."

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

I look at Pria and see her wrinkling her brow in thought.

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

Hmph."

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

I was surprised when Mr. Druid suddenly laughed.

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

I am sure there was nothing to laugh at just now.

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

Ivy has decided to pick out and buy her own spring clothes today. I've never picked out anything so cute and well embroidered before. Well, I picked one. I hope this makes her think she doesn't have to hold back too much. It's difficult because it's something I do unconsciously. I wish you would spoil me more."

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

I've heard that you and Mr. Druid are not blood related, but it sounds like a real father and son.

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

I have also heard Mr. Ivy say that he is a proud father.

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

They have a really good relationship.
