The inside of the guild is the same as usual, no particular change.
　I can only feel a glance at you.

　What are you doing standing in the doorway? What's the hurry up," he said. You don't want to let the other adventurers get to you first.
　"...and...

　They followed behind me in silence.
　I walked up to the receptionist's sister, but there's nothing to keep these guys quiet.
　I could only feel their eyes on me more than usual. Well, I guess they're all wondering what kind of quest Dragon Hunter Kakeru is going to receive.

　''Sister!　Do you have any quests today?
　Oh, Kakeru. Good morning. 　How about this?　I think you'd like that, Kakeru-san?

　Wasn't she about to say something?
　I took a piece of paper with the quest description from the lady at the reception desk and shifted my gaze to it.

　* Quest Name Hostage Rescue *

　Our village was attacked by brigands and our children were kidnapped. The brigands demanded 50 million sari if we wanted them back. We didn't have that much money in our mid-sized village and we had to ask our adventurers for help. There are about twenty bandits operating from a cave somewhere. Please help us get our children back.

　Reward 50,000 sari.　

　A child rescue mission. I hate it when they take little kids hostage.

　I said the most natural and righteous thing I could say.

　'Hey, I knew it,'
　That's what I'm talking about.
　Of course you do.

　The words were intended to be words of justice, but the whispers I heard from those around me were somehow strange.
　It's not said with praise like I thought it would be, but with disappointment....
　Considering the way I'm treated in this world, it's clear something happened last night. If that event is reflected in the attitude of these guys, then if I accept this quest with ease, misfortune is sure to come upon me.
　I handed the quest paper back to my sister.

　I'll have to talk to these guys a bit more.
　What?
　What?

　Why is he surprised?

　Oh, I'm sorry. I thought you were supposed to say no.
　''No, no, just so you know, we have to choose our quests based on these guys' opinions. They're important party members, you know.
　Oh, yeah.

　We moved to our usual table with a questioning look on the sister's face that said, "I'm convinced.

　'Something's up. Isn't it?

　I crossed my fingers in front of my face and asked, as if I were some kind of commander.

　'Actually, you know--'
　'Stella's not bad!　When I was a better man than I was then...
　What are you talking about? Aria will have done nothing wrong!
　'No!　It's my fault!
　She is a concubine!
　"I.
　"Concubine.
　Hey.
　What?
　What?

　What?　These are the same girls who were just saying they were wrong, right?　Why are you so bullheaded?

　I don't need to know which one is worse. Just tell me what happened yesterday.
　As a matter of fact...

　--- Back in time, 12 years ago...

　I am Aria. I am God. I, God, was born into this world twelve years ago. I am Zeus, the strong and noble Supreme Being...

　Hey, wait a minute.
　What is it?
　You just talk about yesterday.　Why are you going back in time for 12 years?　And your father is definitely not Zeus.　
　I thought I should explain my background to you all.
　Who the f*ck are you guys? I don't care who you are, just tell me what happened yesterday.
　"Kakeru always complains about everything!　There's no way around it,

　No choice, I guess.

　--- Back in time, one day ago...

　I am Aria. I am God. I am God, and I was born into this world for twelve years now--.

　'That's why I don't want your upbringing, man!　You said a day ago!　Well, we got off to the right start!　You want to talk about yourself like that!
　Don't tell me I was born right, that I'm not... don't be embarrassed.

　What is this guy? Why are you blushing?

　I'm done with you, Stella can talk to me.
　All right. But can you not be mad at me?
　Okay.....

　--- back in time, a day ago ---

　My concubine is Stella. She is the world's strongest and best user of celestial magic. Concubine was born one thousand five hundred years ago--

　'You too?　What!　You guys are bound to start with your upbringing when you talk about yesterday!　You've got to be kidding me!　I can't go on!
　I thought it would be better to give the impression of a mysterious beautiful girl if she has lived for 1,500 years.
　'You have a hell of a mystery when you use magic and the reaction is to become a little girl!　And don't call yourself a pretty girl.
　What?　A beautiful girl?　Kakeru's ideals are high, aren't they?

　Oh, shit. These guys are playing with me.

　"Okay, okay.　I understand why you guys don't want to talk about what happened yesterday--
　'As usual, there's a lot of noise around Kakeru!

　As I was dumbfounded, I heard a familiar voice.

　'Denver?　........why are you guys pointing at Denver?
　'This is the root of all evil!　On second thought, it wasn't my fault!
　That's right!　It's all his fault!
　No, did you guys forget that we apologized for ourselves earlier?
　"...and...

　These guys. It's okay. I'll tell you what.

　Denver, what's going on?
　Yeah, don't make me sound like a bad person.
　"Denver is bad! It is!
　So that's what I'm saying. You tell me.　What happened yesterday?

　I sat Denver down next to me and asked with the kindest smile I could muster.

　'Oh. That was yesterday. I was in town yesterday and a little Stella came up to me, right?　"You said the strawberries were worth a fortune!　I've heard it said that if you see a wet spot on a straw hat, you'll run out of steam!　You don't think so?　He came up to me and said, "I don't know what to do!　I didn't know what I was talking about and said, "Hey, that's not a dragon hunter, that's a pedophile hunter! Then Kakeru isn't a dragon hunter, he's a pedophile hunter! I mean. Well, looking back, little Stella often says things that don't make sense, so I don't take her seriously.

　I sucked in a breath. I inhaled quite a bit.

　'It's your fault, ain't it!　Hey, Alia!　I told you to take care of little Stella, didn't I?　I'm God, I'm God, and I said what's God if I can't keep one child under my watch!　You're spreading the bombshell as hard as you can!
　No, no, no!　I just took my eyes off the shop for a minute because I smelled something nice coming from it!
　Ste--
　No, you're not!　She's grown small, hasn't she?　Because what she said and did was a concubine, not a mistress, right?
　"d*mn it!　Now is not the time to condemn your people!　In the meantime, we're canceling today's quest!　And Aria. You're going to skip snacks for a week.

　I'm sorry I let this piece of shit take care of the little girl!　I failed!

　And Denver. You don't go around town telling people what to do. There are a lot of people in this town who only hear and spread the word about what's good for them, even if it's just for the sake of it.
　Hey.
　So you're gonna help me.
　'What?　But I'm on a quest now...
　Come on!

　I stopped going on the quest and spent the day running around the city with the disgraceful title spread around.
　Dammit!　How could this happen?
