Then Sarya and I talked for an hour or so about trivial matters...
　Then I gave a firm greeting and left the royal castle.

　Afterwards, we met up with everyone in the square...

'Huh?　Sola and Luna. And Nina and Tina?

　The four of them were nowhere to be found.
　It was just Kanade and Tania.

'They said they were going to do some sightseeing in the capital. They said they were going to have a tour of the capital.
'We can't leave Rain alone, so we've decided to split up. Oh, we've already agreed to meet up with you.

　According to Kanade, we're supposed to meet up again in this square in two hours.
　Our departure will be delayed, but....
　Well, maybe a little bit.
　I don't know when I'll be in King's Landing next, and I'll let you do what you want.

'Are Canade and Tania good for tourism?
''Nya. I don't know what to say, but I'd rather be with Rain....
I'm not ... well, I don't want Rain to be alone, do I?　And if you stay with the upside-down cat there, he might do something weird?　I'll be there with you as a chaperone.
'Upside down cat!　I don't know what that means at all, but I feel like I'm being belittled!
'Where I'm going isn't much fun, is it?　Is that what you want?
Where are you going?
The Adventurers' Guild.



----------



　I visited the Adventurer's Guild with Kanade and Tania.

''Oh, Mr. Shroud. Welcome.

　Nanalee greeted me with a smile.

'How have you been helped?　As I recall, Mr. Shroud is leaving King's Landing today, isn't he?　I don't think I'm here to take on any requests...
I just wanted to say hello. Thank you for everything you've done for me.
No, no, no, I haven't done anything...!　Please take care of my sister when we get back to Horizon.
He asked me to.

　First objective accomplished.
　What's next....

　He looked around the guild.
　Then he spotted the people he wanted in the common room.

'Axe, Cell.'

　Calling out to the two of them.
　........For some reason, Cel was stepping on Axe with a cold look in his eyes, so it was extremely hard to talk to him.

Oh, it's not Rain. And Kanade and Tania.
Hey there.
What are you doing...?
Discipline.
You're gonna discipline...?
'I'm trying to discipline them like this because Axe's mistake made me lose half of my client fee.

　It hurts to have half of the commission fee disappear, but the sight of Axe getting his head stepped on while on his knees is indeed a pity.

"Ugugu...............Yo, Rain. I'm glad to see you're doing well.
'Oh, oh. Axe is fine ... can I say that?
Yeah, this isn't as bad as it sounds.

　Wow, the ladies were pulling away.

'Also, as we're doing this the view is spectacular.
What?

　The cell turned red and hurriedly suppressed her skirt.



　Cell was kicking Axe upside down.
　However, it seems to be an everyday occurrence, and the surrounding adventurers continue to talk as if nothing is happening.

''Nya........you don't see us, do you?
I don't have to worry about my underwear being visible.
Tania's Betrayal.

　I'm afraid I've gone off on a tangent.

"Uh ... now, you got a minute?
Yes, of course.

　He sits down in the chair.
　Axe gets up and sits in the chair, wobbling, too.
　Then we all sit around the table.

'What's going on?'
"I'm leaving King's Landing today. So I just wanted to say hello and thank you to you both. Again, thank you. You two were very helpful to me that time.
Well, it's not that big of a deal. But if you say you care about it, why don't you buy me some good food and drinks?
'Don't thank me. We just did what we thought was normal.

　Cell said with a smirk on his face while hitting Axe.
　The gap between the actions and the lines is so intense that it's a bit scary.

''Nya........Cell is pretty hard on Axe, isn't he?
Is it possible that this is the flip side of love?
Stop it. Don't say those stupid words.

　Cell denied Tania's words with a straight face.
　Axe cried out sullenly.

'Well, well that's beside the point. I'm sure you've been rescued. If you want to buy me something to drink, I don't mind, okay?
Oh, my God, are you sure?
I'm leaving King's Landing today, so maybe some other time but that's fine. We'll have a leisurely drink then.
Oh, you know what I'm talking about. That's what I'm talking about.
You're in good shape.
No, that's okay. A man's got to be a man.
Oh, dear. So you don't mind that I'm a woman and can't get to know Axe, right? Isn't that right?
I'm sorry.

　Axe got down on his knees without a pause.
　No, down on his knees?

　Anyway, he apologized to Cell with all his might.
　Well, I can say that it's typical of Axe.

　

'Speaking of which, what are you two going to do now?　Still in King's Landing?
No. We'll be leaving King's Landing in a little while.
'King's Landing attracts a lot of adventurers. There's so much competition it's a pain in the ass.
'Axe would have said something like, "I'm just going to push through and not lose, no matter what opponent I have. That's a bit surprising.
You're right.
What?
'Axe said that at first, but...'
'Cell's pissed at me. What are you going to do with all that inefficiency?　I can't stay at the inn if I can't take on the request. I wonder if you'll be able to work out the kinks in that area?　Or whatever they said, and it was a mess.
"Haha.

　It was easy to picture the scene and I couldn't help but smile.

'I think I'll just try to circle around King's Landing for a while and then, when I'm ready, I'll move to Horizon.
I see. Well, I guess we'll have to wait until then to drink.
I'm looking forward to your buying me a drink.
I'll see you later.

　Cell and Axe smiled at me and....
　I smiled back at him in response.

　And then.........we shook hands, which was not possible before, and we said goodbye.
　Hoping to see each other again....
　We each go our own way.
