It's probably been a long time since I've been this nervous to walk through a gate.

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

I know I shouldn't behave in a suspicious manner, but I just can't help feeling nervous.

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

"Both of you said I don't need to be so nervous."

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

I know I am, but ......

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

When I look at my sister, she looks pale.

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

The two of them would stand out if they were behaving strangely.

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

All right, I'll calm down, even if I mean to.

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

I took a small deep breath and went to the gatekeeper.

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

Hello.

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

The father bows a small bow to the gatekeeper.

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

Oh?　Are you sick?

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

The gatekeeper saw her sister and took a step closer to her, and the sister shivered.

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

Just before we arrived at this village, we were attacked by a demon. This was the first time for Marya to travel, so she is still scared. She says she's fine now, but..."

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

When the father answered, the gatekeeper hurriedly took two steps back.

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

The gatekeeper bowed his head to the sister with an apologetic expression, perhaps thinking he had frightened her.

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

I'm sorry. You are safe in this village, so please take your time and rest."

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

The gatekeeper must have been very kind.

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

He quickly arranged for us to enter the village.

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

It was a disaster, wasn't it? I can't believe that the demon that attacked you took my bag. Please wait a moment. Let's see, here it is. It's a list of cheap but good quality stores in this village. It must be hard to get them all. Here you go."

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

I decided to do that as an explanation for not having any luggage, but it hurt my heart a little.

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

This gatekeeper is too nice.

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

Thank you."

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

When the sister smiled a little and thanked him, the gatekeeper wrinkled his eyes and smiled.

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

I am glad we came here when this man is the gatekeeper.

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

We enter the village safely and decide to sell the magic stone at the commercial guild first.

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

I don't make my sister's card now because I haven't decided what I'm going to do yet.

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

'Lively, isn't it?

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

The number of adventurers is a little low, but the villagers are working with smiles on their faces.

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

'We're going to make some money from this. It'll bring a smile to their faces."

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

I nod my head at my father's words.

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

Earning money?

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

Because they found an underground cave?

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

Yes. Adventurers from all over the country will gather here. This village will be crowded from now on.

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

I see. That's why all the people are smiling.

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

Come to think of it, there are more people remodeling their stores than in other villages.

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

But it's only the second day since I found them again.

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

''I'll go to the commercial guild alone.

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

Eh?"

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

I think you should go with me, don't you?

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

Because there's no guarantee that there aren't any bribed employees there.

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

Could there be?

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

'I can't say there isn't. Ivy and the others are ......"

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

We stopped once we saw the commercial guild building and looked around.

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

The adventurers' guild is also nearby, so there are some adventurers, but still few.

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

Perhaps they are going to the underground caves?

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

I thought to myself, "Before I go look at clothes and shoes, can I get something to eat? Can you go get me something suitable?"

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

I don't mind. What do you want?"

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

I looked toward the food stalls. It was a little past noon, so some of the stalls had people lined up.

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

Meat?

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

It's always meat, isn't it?

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

I understand. Have some vegetables, too."

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

Dad smiles at my words.

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

After seeing him off to the commercial guild, my sister and I look around the stalls.

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

There are many dalu stalls, but the next most common are skewers of garga meat.

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

There are many kinds of seasonings and they all look delicious.

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

I ask her, "I'm going to buy some garga meat skewers for my dad, how many do you think you can eat, sis?"

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

In response to my question, my sister looks at the garga meat skewers.

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

The chunks of meat are grilled in a delicious way.

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

I think one skewer will fill you up.

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

It is true that the garga meat skewers are large in size.

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

I think I'd be pretty full on one too.

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

'Sis...shall we both have one, and then we can have something else?'

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

I think so. Let's do that."

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

We look around at the garga meat skewer stalls.

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

We should stop at the ones that boast about the size of their meat.

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

My sister nodded at my words.

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

Even if the two of us ate together, one skewer would fill us up.

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

We find a place that serves slightly smaller garga skewers and order 11 skewers for dad and ourselves.

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

We find a store right next door that serves soup with vegetables in it, so we buy some of that too.

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

Looks delicious.

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

My sister smiles happily when she sees the garga meat skewers.

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

I was glad to see that the fear I felt at the gate seemed to have faded.

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

When we returned to the street where the commercial guild was located, my father came out just in time.

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

He was with someone.　He's with someone.

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

I looked at him and saw that he was with two men who looked like adventurers.

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

I wasn't sure if I should approach him, so I looked at him from a little distance.

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

"Do you know them?"

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

I shook my head at her question.

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

I had never seen him before.

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

Come to think of it, I've never paid attention to my father's friendships.

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

He doesn't talk much about his past.

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

He seems close.

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

"Yeah."

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

He turned to me unexpectedly.

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

While I was wondering how to react, I saw him coming toward me.

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

Two men were with him.

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

If the father decided it was okay, then it must be okay.

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

Ivy, did I keep you waiting?　It was kind of crowded.

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

"No, I'm fine. I'm fine. ......

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

Is it okay if I introduce myself?

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

I looked at my dad, anxious.

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

Ranj, this is Ivy, my daughter I told you about. Isn't she cute?　These two are Ranj and Ega. We've known each other for a long time."

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

Dad, that's a lot of words for an introduction.

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

I can feel my cheeks getting a little hot, but I bow my head toward Ranzi and Ega in a small way.

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

'Nice to meet you, Ivy.

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

Up close, I can tell that she is older than her father.

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

I guess they are both in their late fifties or so.

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

And this is Marya, who joined us on the trip from here.

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

Nice to meet you.

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

Nice to meet you." "Oh, nice to meet you."

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

Ranj responds to her sister's small voice with a smile.

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

She seems to be in a calm mood.

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

I'm Ega. It's nice to meet you.

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

He's a gentle man, but I sense a little bit of severity in him.

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

We haven't seen each other in the commercial guild for a long time.

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

Ranj and Ega nodded at their father's words.

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

I'm glad to see you," he said. I was so happy to see him after a long time that I called out to him, but he gave me a big stare.

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

Mr. Lanzi looked a little sad.

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

I'm sorry," he said. I didn't realize who it was for a moment.

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

It seems that you and your father are quite close.

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

The father's attitude shows that he is very friendly with him.

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

Ivy, is the druid nice to you? Ivy, is the druid kind?

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

Ivy: "Yes, he is. Yes, they are very kind.

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

When I answered Mr. Runge's question with a smile, he looked very happy.

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

I wonder if he was worried about me.

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

'Yes,' she said. Mons is relieved too. Oh, does Mons know?"

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

Mr. Mons?

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

Where have I heard of him before, or ...... haven't I?

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

Ivy, Mons is my mentor's name."

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

Oh, that's right.

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

'My mentor has been very good to me, and I am grateful to him.'

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

Ega-san looked a little surprised at my words and then smiled happily.

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

I see, you also know Mons?

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

'Yes.

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

I've never heard anyone say Master's name in such a friendly manner.

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

''Lunch is coming up now, isn't it?''

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

Mr. Lanzi looks at the luggage that my sister and I are carrying.

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

'Oh, do you know a place where we can settle down and eat?'

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

At my father's words, Mr. Ega tells me about a park where we can settle down, though it is a bit of a walk.

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

Mr. Lanzi and Ega still have things to do, so they said goodbye to us here.

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

I'd like to talk to you again when we have more time."

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

Dad nodded at Mr. Lanzi's words.

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

I felt that the atmosphere of the father was similar to that of when he was with his master.

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

Both Ranzi and Ega knew their mentor, and they must have an easygoing relationship.
