I'm going to King's Landing to study in a frontier city.
　Tomorrow, I'm finally going to leave for King's Landing.

　So tonight, everyone has agreed to hold a pep rally for me.

　The venue is an inn in a familiar hot spring village.
　There were quite a few guests that day as well, but the young proprietress of the Elves had managed to get a large hall reserved for the party.

　While the host, Erdena, was the hostess of the event.
　I sat alone in the upper section of the room and everyone else was lined up in front of me.


　This hot spring village will be a very memorable place.
　It's the first place where I ended up after the Greed family was disowned and I had nowhere else to go.

　At that time, there was only an abandoned town, and we all worked hard to repair it and make it livable.

　Me, Erdena, and Unja.
　And that Black who sent us home.

　The history of Liberty, which began here, is about to be traced back to a frontier city...I can't help but get excited just thinking about it.

　Just when you think you can draw a hot spring, the Fordente will settle in.

　At first I thought Korok was just a bear.

　I got to know everyone in the village at the foot of Mt. Gorun because of the medicine.
　You met Yorme and Googus here, too.

　I'm helping Aura and Ella.

　I don't remember having to fight Sarah the Salamander after that.
　And then I hooked up with Sara afterwards.

　Jambalea said, "Do you want the underground maze? I don't remember the last time a salesperson came to me and said, "You know what?

　So Lil Pop came to this world by accident.
　Now she's Googs' common-law wife with three kids and....

　Siyaka and Ten continue to practice Bunnism at their own pace, as usual.
　But in the case of the two of them, they're more famous now as sweetmeats.


　They were all staring at each one of their faces, and yes, they were soaking up the memories.
So, let me just say that Safate...
　Erdena talked to me.

　For me, I had so much to tell everyone.
　I was so caught up in the memories I was having while looking at the faces of the people I was with that I was feeling a little teary.
Anyway, good luck and I'll be back in a month.
　And that's why I could barely say that...

You could use a little wittier greeting, couldn't you?
Just like a little girl.
　But I thought it was better than the damp one....

　The pep rally started rather early, and on the way to the hot springs, we were allowed to take a dip in the hot springs as we pleased, but no one went to the hot springs, and everyone was hanging out around me.

'Sorry I'm late, sorry I'm late,'
　And even Gerther, the Lord of Batcombe, Gerther, who should not have been speaking to me, showed his face.

　Gelter took me in his arms and held me by the shoulders.
Before I tell you to go for it, I'm going to tell you two things.
　He looked into my face as he said this.
''First of all, a frontier city is important after you become one................keep this in mind.
　When I said that, Gelter pushed my chest area with his fist.
　The reason why the fist felt so heavy is because he knows the hardships we've gone through since we became a frontier city, I thought.

　Come to think of it, I experienced a lot of things with Geltar.
　I was really worried when I heard that he had been mortally wounded during the Chimera Pseudo Riot.
　After that incident, Geltar's Batcombe, which had successfully wiped out the military faction, was no longer seen as a threat by the surrounding cities as it used to be.

　In front of me as I was remembering that, Gelter made a two with his finger.
And secondly you should be good to Vibrina.
　As I said this, she took Biblina, who was nearby, into her arms and pushed her into my chest.
''Hey, hey father, what are you doing, all of a sudden!
　Biblina becomes angry as she turns red in the face towards Gelter.

　........But maybe it's my imagination, I don't feel any sign of her trying to get out of my chest, but......

　Gelter laughed at Vibrina and laughed at her.
''You're going to the capital as a lord to receive training in a frontier city. You'll be able to use your position to make various connections.
　Those things can be very useful for the city later on.
　He said that and held a glass of liquor to me.
　I'm not going to let that happen.
I'll do my best to include that.
　As he replied that, he turned his own cup to Geltor and went.

◇ ◇ ◇.

　Later, when the date was about to change, as expected, some of them started to sleep.
　However, since the room wasn't open separately, they had no choice but to sleep here for the day, so whenever someone fell asleep, Unja or Yorme would immediately carry them to the side of the room and put them in the futon they were laying on.
　
　Incidentally, Unya has been trying her best to fix her slimmer, more beautiful cat person appearance by means of the shape transformation example.
　I'm not quite used to it either, since Unna usually has a cute face.
I'm going to be your chaperone, so I'll be dressed for anyone who wants to see me.
　So I'm stubbornly insisting on that.

　I was starting to feel a little sleepy too, so I decided to take a dip in the hot spring and then head to the hot spring to sleep.
　As expected, no one was in at this time of day, and it was completely rented out.

　This hot spring where you can look out the window and see the mountain canyon is really comfortable.



　I was muttering about that.
Well, it's really nice, isn't it?

　and

　Before I knew it, Foldente had appeared next to me.
　As a contemplative body, sneaking into a man's bath would be a piece of cake for her, but as expected, this is something she'll never get used to.
'I can't get used to it, I can't enjoy it!
　Then, with a chuckle, Foldente deliberately emphasizes those breasts towards me.
　
　And then

There you are, Foldente.
　As he said this, Erdena, who had just wrapped a towel around her body, came in shamelessly.

'Excuse me?　Foldente is milking Safate, is he not?
　As I said that, I ran to the hot spring, but Biblina seemed to be in quite a hurry, and the bath towel she had wrapped around her body fell off as soon as she came into the hot spring....
"Wow, come on, Safate, not now!　You can't turn your back on me now.
　As I said that, I went back to the changing room once.

　I noticed that Foldente and Erdena were hanging out together on either side of me with a look on their faces as if it were natural.

　I even remembered a strange memory of this scene that used to happen a long time ago...

◇ ◇.

　The next morning.
　After having breakfast at an inn, we left the hot spring village and headed for our respective workplaces.
Good luck.
I'm rooting for you.
You should come home once in a while.
　They all say a few words to me.

　I stood at the entrance of the hot spring inn until the end and saw everyone off.

　After that, once I returned to the lord's mansion, I went to my room and put my luggage into the magic bag.
　As I was displaying the list of contents and checking to see if I had forgotten anything, Erdena came in.

　As soon as she entered the room, Eldena hugged me and put her lips on mine.
　I let go of her lips.
You don't have to worry about this.
　Then, Erdena smiles at me.

　I gave Eldena a hug, this time from me.
"I can focus on what's going on over there now that Eldena's here.
　Then he said that and put his lips on mine.

◇ ◇ ◇.

　Shortly after, I received word that a small magician's boat for the royal capital was ready to go, so I headed to the boarding area by the town hall.

　Everyone from the town hall had gathered there.
　As I boarded the magic ship with encouragement from everyone.
　Unja was already on board, and Dorun was taking the helm.

'Come on, Botchan, let's go.
　I nodded to Unja as she said that.

　And then the small magician's boat with us on board slowly left the landing and flew up into the sky.

　We were headed for the royal capital.
