It had been a while since Phil, who called himself the Sword Saint, left.

　I had gone to the guild.

　It was to complete the request and report on the demon race's mutant-like constitution.

　I reach the first floor.

　However, we don't do this at the usual reception area. This time it's a request directly from Riff.

　If Riff isn't there, it doesn't matter if you just go to the reception desk, so I'll knock on the door of the guildmaster's room first. If he's not there, I'll come back to the first floor again, but for now, I'll walk upstairs and aim for it.

''Jeed!''

　Suddenly, I heard such a voice.

　When I looked at the owner of the voice, I saw Sheila with a smiling smile and Kåñëa beside her.

You're back. I just came back from a long way too, so that's odd.

What are you talking about? You were asked to cover the border. That's why you're giving us some slack.

　Kuena says, putting her hands on her hips.

　'Apparently they've been misplaced or in the vicinity.

'What? Seriously?　It was as far as I thought it wouldn't affect me too much: ......

'That local area was just a fierce battle, but the rest of it was mostly contained. Sometimes it's better to look at parts of it rather than areas.

But that's Jide!　We weren't fighting the demon tribe, but I was told that several pretty famous mercenary groups were crushed in their entirety!

　While Kuena pointed out that Sheila was no longer so excited that she was about to grow a dog's tail and ears.

　That's not all. She hugged me with all the energy she could muster.

　Soft touches stimulated her entire body from her torso ......!

She's got a lot of love interest built up since she hasn't seen Zid.

Oh, really? But you can't be too direct with your skin. Especially since I'm a guy.

　Sheila's breasts are well above the average for a woman.

　It's so stimulating that if she gets this close to me, I feel like I'm going to go out of control.

The 'favor' you're referring to is that kind of thing. The favors I'm talking about are gender-specific.

...... You don't say?

　Silly .......

　I know what a relationship between a man and a woman is. I heard about it half the time from my colleagues in the old Order of Kuzela. It exists as knowledge.

　But I never thought that such a story existed in my neighborhood.

''Mm-hmm. I can hear Jeed-san's heartbeat, can't I?

　Sheila says provocatively while looking at me with a superior look.

　But anyway, I, too, can feel the heartbeat - or shaking - through Sheila's large chest: ......!

　Sheila's blushing face was also strangely agitated, and the part of her that had previously only been used for the toilet was starting to react.

''Um, since this is a public place, if we're going to make out, could the three of you go to the inn?''

　Suddenly, the receptionist called out to me as I was looking at her with zit eyes as if to blame her.

　With a huff, I looked around and saw the adventurers looking awkward.

　Some of them were staring at you with murderous intent.

''Wait a minute!　Why am I included in this?!''

　Kuena protested the receptionist's words.

'Again, I'm not hiding it. You were looking at Lady Sheila with envy.

What are you talking about? ......!

　My eyes meet with Kåñëa's as the receptionist tells me.

　Her face turns bright red and she turns over.



　What is this?



　I'm speechless after witnessing a scene I've never seen before.

　Am I going to die like this ......?

　The events of the past run like running lights.

　All memories of a time when I fought so hard to live--

　Don't. Don't die.

　You're alive to pay for all the negative things you've done.

　Don't die.

　You're running on a positive trajectory, but you're running too fast. I'm running out of breath. My head is about to explode. Let's just leave it at that.

　Something... ...... something... ......

　Suddenly, I saw the dust on Kåñëa and Sheila.

'There's dust on them. Did you leave straight from your request?

...... ugh.

　Kåñëa looked away, looking uncomfortable.

　But after a slight hesitation, he lowered his head.

''I'm sorry. I got tangled up with some strange woman and I lost.'

Who are you to lose? More importantly, why are you apologizing to me?

It's just that, Jide. It's like he overheard our conversation about wanting to be part of Jade's party, and somehow he misunderstood and thought we were potential party members.

　Sheila also looks down, apologetically.

　Ah ...... I see.

　Apparently, you've taken my name on without permission. That's why he feels like he's hurt my name because he's lost.

'Don't worry about it. It's a good thing you got mixed up in that stuff. I'm glad you guys are okay.

　There's no such thing as a hurtful name for me.

　I do the requests I get even with an F-grade, and there's a section where I'm treated like some kind of a disaster: .......

　My name is not a good one.

"Zeedo oh ............!

　An impressed Sheila looks like she's about to cry.

'I will definitely be a worthy member ......!

I won't let that one get me down either. Never.

　There was a firmness of will in their eyes. It wasn't all bad, it seemed.　

'Well, I'll go to Riff's then. Good luck.

Agh!

　I walk up the stairs, peeling off the adhesive surface with Sheila, who moans prettily as if she's going to miss it.

　But have I been getting tangled up with the odd one lately?

　I also had a strange woman come to the inn.

　Is it because we are in these times of confusion and confusion?
