After retreating to King's Landing to look for a property, we're coming to the Adventurer's Association.
　Since there is still quite a bit of time before the sun sets, Brunne decided to head there on the day. So we came to tell you about it before we leave the Sting.

''So I'm sorry, but I'm going to leave Sting for a bit.

''Ah, I understand........ With Okura-san and the others around, I would have been relieved if there was something sudden, but it can't be helped.

Oh, but it's just for a little while, so I'll be back here again in a bit.

　When I tell Widge-chan that I'm going to Brunne, she slumps her shoulders in a disappointed voice.
　Even though it's a C-rank, I think it's about a B-rank in terms of strength because of Nol and the others.
　They usually only hunt and come back every day, so they might have been handy compared to the other B-ranks who are often absent for a few days for escorting and such. I didn't get much of a request itself, though.
　I'm planning to come back to Sting, even if I buy a house in Brunne. There's also the labyrinth, and I still want to hunt in the cave in the north.

'You've kept me waiting. Let's get going then.

It's been a long time since I've seen you.

'I came over here as soon as I was called up, so it doesn't feel like it's been too long.

'I feel like I'm the only one who feels out of my league, but I'm kind of excited to go to a city I don't know.

　I move quickly to go outside the gate with the Nolls, who have been keeping me waiting outside.
　Only Sisha is a bit excited, moving her body subtly. At first I thought he was a bit more quiet but........he's surprisingly easy to understand.
　Or rather, all three of them are easy to understand because they all express themselves immediately with some part of their bodies.

●

　We left King's Landing and we're now on the magic carpet.
　Nol shivered that we would get in the carriage like we did when we came again, but since we can already use the map app properly, we won't get in this time.
　Even considering the speed at which we're moving, the magic carpet is much faster than the carriage, which takes nearly ten days. And I have to do certain tasks along the way.

No, after all, the magic carpet is wonderful!

'You were drunk and groggy when you came from Brunne,'

　As usual, Esther was completely in front of me, sitting on her cross-legged legs, with Noor and Sisha sitting behind her.
　She was muttering sullenly, as if she was remembering the time she came from Brunne.
　It was really bad back then..................I had to force him to sleep because he was about to vomit a lot.
　And then you woke me up by shoving the elixir in my mouth... I'm starting to feel like Noor is in a worse place than I thought.

'Now that you have Sisha, aren't you fine with drunkenness from now on in the carriage?

Come to think of it, can recovery magic cure sickness and such?

'Maybe ... it can be cured. I've never used it for drunkenness, so I can't answer whether it will cure you for sure, though.

　He said that recovery systems are not Esther's specialty, and I wonder if Sisha can even cure drunkenness.
　It seems like he can heal muscle pains as well, so it looks like he can. It's not just about healing wounds, but also colds, headaches and stomachaches, so recovery magic seems to be useful.

'I wonder how long it would take for the magic carpet to reach Brunne?

'Well this will still take more than two days, won't it?　We've got a long way to go before we see it on the map app.

　Though considerably faster than the carriage, it's still quite a distance to Brunne. Even if things went smoothly like this, it wouldn't be possible in a day.
　In the case of the carriage, there were horse breaks and such, and there were a lot of people in the carriage, so I'm sure it would be quite different, but it would take a few days. I checked the map and we're not even a third of the way through.

''Maybe I failed a bit...should I have collected the beacon from Mt. Remri?

'Considering the hassle of going back, shouldn't you have left it as is?　And if it's not enough, we can use Brunne to collect the magic stones, and then spin the mess to increase the number of beacons.

　There are currently 11 beacons in total. We have one in the vicinity of Sting, one in the north cave, and three in Mount Lemurie, so we have six left over.
　I'm planning to set up these at about the same distance, but I'm starting to worry about whether it will be enough. I thought about using the beacon to get them back from Mt.
　Beacons are convenient, but it's a pain in the ass to have to actually go to your destination and install them. Still, it's convenient, so I don't see why I should complain about it.

'Mmm, there's a demon ahead. Let's just go ahead and avoid it.

Okura-san, let's keep going!

'Eh... well, okay, but...'

　As I looked at the map and went on, I saw a demon's reaction in the direction I was going. Since they are still far away from us, we can avoid them without fighting them and pass through, but Sisha said we should go without avoiding them, so we continued on.
　And ahead, there were a few wolf-shaped demons. They are one larger type than the wolves we fought before.
　After stopping the carpet once it was in sight, Sisha leaped from her seated position and headed towards the Wolf.
　When Wolf and the others noticed her presence, they lowered their posture menacingly, and when Sisha approached them to some extent, they pounced on her in unison.
　Wolf opened his sharp, fanged mouth wide in an attempt to bite her, but his attack did not hit her.
　This was because if the Wolves that jumped at her came within range of her attack, they would smash her entire head with their wands.
　Once one head was smashed, the second and then the third would take care of them one by one with flowing movements, mixing not only the wand but also kicks.
　The few Wolves that were there were all turned into particles of light without landing on them anymore after just one jump on them.

''Huh........the demons around here don't have much endurance, do they?''

I don't think you need to bother with it, sir...

I know it's boring, though.

　There shouldn't be any strong demons around here, so I let her fight normally, but.......it's not that the demons don't have durability, it's just that Sisha has too much attack power.
　After defeating the demon, she loosened her cheeks and smiled a very satisfied smile. It's been a few hours since she started moving and she must have been bored.
　
　But still, I don't know if I can move that much without Estelle's support.

Huh, I guess that's it for today. You'll be able to force your way through at night if you want to, but what do you do?

It's better not to do that. It's better not to do that, because if you make a move, you don't know what's out there. And since Moffat is there, we're going to rest quietly today!

　It's like we were the ones who attacked them, but we moved on for a while after the demon attack and the sun started to set, so we decided to make camp today.
　There was a lot of stuff going on before we got here, including setting up beacons and Sisha attacking demons several times, but nothing particularly troubling has happened.
　If you use the magic carpet and map app together, nighttime activities are possible, but there's also a moffoot that Noor is holding, so it's best not to be too reckless.

''Mmmm, food is delicious after all.

'It's nice to know we can have good food outside. It's nice to have R for food.

We can never have enough of them.

'That's true but I'm actually quite indebted to you, but... hmmm...'

　We take out our camping set and put out food around the campfire.
　A sizzling steak, a fluffy plain omelet, and a variety of other dishes come out.
　If I could eat all the time, I would eat the food from Gacha, but if we all ate three meals every day, it would be gone immediately, so I try not to eat as much as possible when I'm in town.
　As for me, I'm glad the food is R, but it's kind of complicated to be happy with R... R and SR are all things I want more than one. Is it to soften the shock a little when the bomb goes off?

The minotaur attacked me before, but it's going to be okay this time.

'Yeah. If you look over a large area on the map app, they're there every so often, but they're far enough away that they'll be fine.

　If you look at the map app, you'll see red dots hovering all over the place, far away from here and there. Still, it's quite a long way from here, so it's unlikely they'll be coming our way.
　During the encampment, me and Noor will take turns keeping watch and sleeping. Estelle and Sisha use magic, so I'll make sure they sleep properly since anything that happens to them mentally will affect them.
　I was told to sleep in the tent as well, but as expected of the three of us sleeping together, we politely declined and slept in our sleeping bags.

●

　Three days after our departure, we arrived safely in Brunne.
　Thank God nothing happened to us this time. We set up 5 beacons, but it seems to be enough for us.
　It's been a long time since we came back, but it's still less crowded and more relaxed than the capital. Is this a better place to live?
　I've arrived in Brunne immediately, so I'm going to buy a house.......but first I'll say hello to the Adventurer's Association.
　It looks like Brunne is going to be the one I'm going to be sleeping in from now on, so I think it's best to tell them I'm back.

'Ah, Glynn-san. It's been a while.

"...Whoa!　Who the hell are you?

　I headed to the Adventurer's Association and when I entered, I saw a certain middle-aged man that I recognized. He was Glynn, the first adventurer I met when I arrived in this world.
　He was staring at the bulletin board with the request form on it, so I called out to him from behind.
　When he turned around and looked at me, he let out a surprised voice and jumped back and said who it was.
　 I thought I was an acquaintance, but they thought I wasn't, and that's how I felt when I was forgotten.
　I felt like crying.

''........hmm?　

Oh, yes, yes.

　Whoa, you remembered.
　But is that where you're going to be judged?　It's like they determined it was me with a crowbar, a pot lid, and a knoll.
　It's true that not many guys are equipped like this........

'You're too weird I didn't even recognize you like who you were. At least take that helmet off if you're going to talk to me.

'Oh, yes, indeed. But has it changed that much?

It hasn't changed in the sense that it's weird, but...

　I just realized that I was wearing a helmet when you told me that. Well, it's hard to tell. Well, I'm glad that I haven't been forgotten.

But then again, there are a lot of parties out there.

'Yes. I've had two people come in since I last saw Glynn. They are Esther the mage and Sisha the priestess.

'I've heard of mages, but you even got a priest in there!

　Mr. Glynn looked around lightly at the Nolls behind me.
　He wasn't here when we left from here on another request, so I couldn't say hello.
　Estelle had registered as an adventurer here, so Myrna must have told him.
　When I introduced the girls, they were quite surprised to hear that there was even a priestess here. So that's what happens when you have a priest in your party in addition to a mage who isn't around much.

''It's Esther. Nice to meet you, Uncle.

Oh, Uncle...

　Estelle greets Glynn-san with a smile, but her face is slightly drawn up when she is called an uncle.
　.........I thought I was middle-aged too, but could it be that I'm a little younger?

It's nice to meet you. My name is Sisha Alvi.

Oh, uh, hi...

　Next, Sisha greeted her with a soft smile.
　When she was greeted, Glynn was speechless as he stared straight ahead at her face. Then he quickly huffed and gave a short reply, and was taken towards me and away from the Nolls.
　'Your face and ears are slightly red.

'Hey, what is it?'

Oh, hey!　What's wrong with that beautiful woman!

'Eh, oh, we just know each other like normal...'

Kuhn ... partying with a beautiful woman like that ... you're a lucky guy.

　She was babbling to me so that the girls couldn't hear her. Apparently, they were blinded by Sisha's appearance.
　Even though they all had good looks, Noor couldn't see their faces and Esther was too young. But Sisha's face is visible and her age is about 20 years old.
　If I were to react to her as a man, it would definitely be her. It's true that it's a pretty tasty position to be in from someone else's point of view, and I'm blessed to be in it too.
　

"So why did you bother to come back when you went to the royal capital?

"I was thinking of buying a house. It was too expensive in King's Landing, so I thought I'd buy it here...''

　After the greetings were finished, he asked me with a curious look on his face why I had come back to Brunne.
　Maybe not many people would come back if they went to the royal capital.

''Ah, well, it's expensive. ........Hey!　A house....you don't mean to live with those girls, do you?

Yes?　I intend to, sir?

Well that's kind of awesome for a lot of reasons.

　When I told him I was buying a house, he phoned in as if he was convinced, and then yelled out in surprise.
　Hmm?　What's so amazing about living with the Noles?　

　........on second thought, it sounds like a bad idea to live in the same house as three girls. Regardless of what's really going on, I'm starting to have a bad feeling about this.
　It's not a good idea to let people know about it.
