Wraith's brow furrows and looks quizzical.

'You know someone in the royal family of the kingdom?'
Well, a lot of things happened a long time ago. So I got asked to do a favor for that reason.
''Come to think of it, Wills-san also said something like that about Master 'Fallen Hero' or something like that...''

　Wraith dredged up his memory of the conversation with the great nobleman and gained one. The word 'fallen hero' was a word so strong that it stuck in his memory.

　After all, it was so strong that there was no other word that could describe the characteristics of Lurimes like this. As Lace was nodding his head in agreement, suddenly there was a light bang and the table shook.

　When Wraith looked at the source of the sound to see what was going on, Sylvia was leaning forward with an unusually excited look on her face.

''Wait a minute, is that Lurimes-san, after all, that Lurimes-san!

　Her eyes were still shining as much as this, and her voice was mindlessly upbeat. Wraith saw a vision of a rabbit's ears bouncing around.

"Oh, do you feel like you know me?
'Yes, I know!　I'm famous for being a supreme mage!
By the looks of it, is Sylvia a mage too?
Yes!

　While Sylvia and Lurimes were talking, Wraith quietly tapped Raffy on the shoulder next to her.

'Raffy, is your master famous after all?'
'Hmm, well, yes. There aren't many people in this country who don't know the name Lurimes.
'Heh, so much for that. By the way, what did Master do to you?

　Wraith asks out of curiosity. I can't help but feel some vague malice in the way he says it.

It is said that he single-handedly fought off the giant dragon that attacked the kingdom. Also, I heard that you helped to rebuild the city in that case.
A giant dragon, or something like that, from the sound of the word, it sounds strong.
'I think you're actually strong. From what I've heard, I don't think even I could take it down by myself.
Well, they're certainly strong.

　As Wraith recalled the sight of Raffy fighting, he recognized the mighty existence of a giant dragon. If he was able to fight off such a creature alone, it makes sense that he would be famous.

''Heh, but for a master to do such a troublesome thing... it's a bit surprising, how can I say it's unusual.
''Well, I heard he demanded something in return when he recovered. I heard he spent some time in the taverns of King's Landing for a while.
Master, that's what you were after.

　Wraith was instantly convinced and looked at his mentor with half-lidded eyes. The Raffy next to her looked at Lurimes as well, smiling bitterly.

''Hmmm, Sylvia-chan was saved by Lei-kun!
'Yes, Mr. Wraith saved my life!

　Before he knew it, he was talking about Wraith. Hearing it in front of him, Wraith felt somewhat embarrassed and scratched his cheeks with a polish.

　The master looked at his apprentice with a smirk on his face.

''What........''

　Wraith narrows his eyes and says bluntly. Lurimes's smile, which has been curtly received, is only getting deeper.

''It's nothing, it's nothing.

　Wraith was about to utter a rebuttal at the words that were the exact opposite of Rulimes' expression, but stopped just before he thought about it. It was because for a long time, he had never tried to win an argument with this kind of talk.

　Instead, he sighed and put one arm on the table and rested his chin on it.

'So, are you going to take that royal request?'
'Hmm, well, I guess it depends on the content. Anyway, I'll listen to what you have to say.
By the way, there's a guy who came to me, too, requesting.
'Heh, I see!
'If you want, Master should take the request. Then you won't have to deal with me.
I'm not sure I can promise that.

　Wraith makes a disgusted expression. He has only studied alchemy minutely in the countryside, so he doesn't understand how to relate to powerful people, such as royalty and nobility.

　Or rather, he really does not want to get involved as much as possible. I'm not sure if this is a request for human life, so I'm going to go talk to him.

''I mean, by the looks of it, doesn't Master know what the request is yet?
'The letter only said to come over...' Well, I guess calling me and Mr. Ray would definitely have to involve alchemy first.
Well, of course you do.

　Wraith gulped down the juice he had ordered with a zoo and blurted out languidly. He hadn't had much time to rest since he came to King's Landing, so he was feeling a bit distracted.

　As he remained in a daze for a few seconds, he suddenly remembered a question he had forgotten.

'Come to think of it, how did Master know where I was?
'I'm here because I sensed Ray-kun's magic - so it's as easy as finding out where he is!
"What? I've never heard of that. f*ck.

　It's the first time I've learned this fact after years of being an apprentice.

　Wraith hugs his body and turns blue. It means that no matter whether he ran away or not, it was only a matter of time before he was eventually found.

　Having completely given up on his escape, Wraith indulges in some banter. In the middle of it all, Lurimes clapped his hands, seemingly having come up with a good idea.

''That's right, Sylvia!　Now that we've gotten to know each other like this, why don't I teach you some magic?
What? Really?

　Sylvia's eyes sparkled at Lurimes' suggestion, as if this was still a good idea. However, Wraith turned his eyes to Lurimes as if he was seeing something unbelievable.

'Wait, wait, wait, wait. Sylvia, think again. I don't want Sylvia to go through hell.'

　Wraith admonished Sylvia with a fatherly expression of concern for his daughter. Those words, based on actual experience, had a certain weight to them.

''Eh, that's a terrible thing to say...''
'Master, think back on what you've done before and then say those words.
That's what I'm talking about, letting the pretty ones travel, or something like that.
'A trip to hell, that's not funny!

　Wraith says that with a big smile. However, his eyes are dark and cloudy, which really conveys his feelings.

　Rulimes swept his gaze as if he was in an awkward mood.

''Well, I won't do anything reckless, so it's okay!
It must be true...
Really, really.

　It's a word that doesn't have any credibility at all. Nevertheless, Sylvia is an S-class adventurer. Even if Wraith doesn't worry about her, she's competent enough to protect herself by herself.

　Therefore, her sister, Raffy, is watching the course of events without interrupting her in particular. Right now, she was looking at Wraith with warm eyes.

''Then when do you want to do it!
Hmm, how about tomorrow?
I understand!

　The story is wrapped up and Sylvia's motivation seems to be sufficient. The Wraiths gradually check the passage of time.

''Hmm, I think it's time for me to go.
It's time for me and Sylvia to make a request too, so that's perfect.
What about the Master?
Me?　Hmmm, I don't have anything to do, so I guess I'll just follow Ray-kun.

　Wraith is now going to ask for help at Daisy's place. So I should normally go alone, but I knew my master would not listen to me.

　So, I'm going to do my best to help you out anyway.

I'll see you later.
'Bye, Sylvia, Raffy!

　Sylvia with a smile and Raffy with a wry smile. After seeing the contrasting expressions on the sisters' faces, Wraith and Lurimes headed to Daisy's.
