CH 233
When Himmel-san, Basleigh-sensei’s stepbrother, appeared on the scene, we thought things were going to get confusing, but surprisingly they didn’t. When Himmel found out that Basleigh-sense was safe, he immediately started drinking with everyone.
When Roy and the other adventurers who had been talking earlier got drunk and left, I joined Makina and sat down at a suitable table to watch the commotion.
“It was just as I had planned, but thanks to Roy, I wouldn’t be underestimated by any of the adventurers around here now.”
“Yeah, I guess so. I’m sure they’re all good people and I don’t have to worry about life in the royal capital. But I was surprised that the party of adventurers that Basleigh-sensei met in the town of Oriola was also there.”
Yes, as Makina said, there was a party that gathered information when they acted separately from us in town of Oriola. They came to this royal capital of Illuminate to do requests because they want to defeat other monsters because the rewards were too low for the Treants. They saw me with Basleigh-sensei and spoke to me briefly earlier.
“Seriously …… I didn’t expect you to come at all, big brother.”
“Oh, welcome back. Are you done?”
“Yes, I had a conversation with a face I hadn’t seen in a long time, and it was a good opportunity to let people know that I’m here again.”
“Why do you make it sound like you’re a villain ……”
After Makina said this in astonishment, she asked Basleigh-sensei a question.
“Sonea-san said that Basleigh-sensei is quiet when she was little, but is that true?”
“Tch, damn that fox, saying unnecessary things …… Well, there was a time when that was true. It’s a nostalgic story.”
She laughed as she said this and tipped her glass.
“……”
“……”
We also drank our drinks and ate our snacks in silence.
“Puha! It’s good to drink for free! Oh, can I have some cheese?”
“No, no, no, no, isn’t that where you’re supposed to about you’re past!?”
“Yeah, yeah!”
“What? It’s not that interesting to listen to, though? Never mind that, let’s have a drink!”
“Ehhhhhhhhhh ……”
In the end, Basleigh-sensei didn’t tell us. Then Sonea-san came up to us with a wink.
“What’s this, you seem to care for them a lot, but you want to tell them? You’re a teacher now, aren’t you?”
“So it’s you. I’m not supposed to talk about it in this kind of situation, after all. It’ll make the alcohol taste bad.”
“…… Well, I guess that makes sense. Lars-kun and Makina-chan, that’s how it is, so let’s leave it at that today, okay?”
Then Sonea-san glanced at Himmel-san. She’s not going to talk about it in front of him, I guess that’s what she meant. If that’s the case, I’ll change the subject.
“…… Anyway, I was surprised that there were more adventurers here than the town of Gust. I didn’t go to the guild in Oriola, but I wonder what it was like there.”
“Well, it’s the royal capital, so there are many people. There are many residential areas, and the population is almost three times that of Gust, and there are many stores. Lars-kun and Makina-chan is still not very familiar here, but there are places outside the academy that teach swordsmanship and magic, you know? You’ll need to pay for it, though.”
I listened to Basleigh-sensei’s words, wondering if it was like a cram school. It’s only my second day here, and I’m looking forward to exploring at my leisure. Then I asked Sonea-san about something that was bothering me.
“How’s the Treant damage over here? The cause has been removed, but is it decreasing?”
“Oh, and by the way, when you said you solved the case, Lars-kun and the others did it? I’ve heard about it through the guild, and the mastermind was brought in, but they don’t disclose who solved it, so I’ve never heard of them before.”
“Is that so?”
Sonea-san said that even if the mastermind behind a big case is caught, the guild basically doesn’t release his name because if he actually has other friends, they might come to retaliate.
“It’s also possible they’ll use a cute girl like Makina as a hostage to manipulate Lars-kun at will …… I’m sorry, I made a mistake, it’s possible that the weak and vulnerable me will be taken hostage and Lars-kun will put an end to it …… Huh?”
“You can rest assured that the number of Treants is decreasing for now. They seem to appear in villages once in a while, so I’ve been sending subjugation requests out.”
Sonea-san smiled contentedly and tipped her mug. If it’s decreasing, then it was worth solving it. It would be good to go exterminate them once in a while.
“But Makina-chan is young and good ……”
“I know, right? By the way, does Sonea-san have a boy–……?”
“Don’t say it.”
“Ahaha ……”
As I was asking for more food while watching the three women talking happily, a large bear-like man came down the stairs next to the reception desk, yawning.
“Fuah, huh? It’s quite lively, were we supposed to be celebrating today?”
“Oh, Guildmaster, you finally woke up? I’ve been trying to wake you up, but you haven’t woken up at all, so I’ve been whispering in your ear.”
“That’s the kind of thing I never notice, you know!? …… Well, it’s my fault that I don’t wake up easily once I fall asleep. You’re taking care of your expenses, aren’t you?”
“Of course. Today is a party to welcome Lars-kun and Makina-chan here, who have moved to the royal capital from the Gust territory, so please understand. You just woke up, but would you like a drink?”
“Yeah, I’ll take it. I’ll have some cider, please.”
I thought it was strange that the guild master wasn’t here, but I didn’t realize he was asleep. If that’s the case, about half of this banquet was held at the sole discretion of Sonea-san and the adventurers, which makes me think that they are classmates of Basleigh-sensei.
“It’s nice to meet you. I’m the guild master here, and my name is Bourne. Best regards, er, Lars-kun and Makina-chan, right?”
Despite his name, Bourne-san is always smiling. He’s big, but not intimidating, so I shake his hand, thinking that he must be a very kind person, especially when it comes to the party.
“My name is Lars Irving. It’s nice to meet you ……!”
“Nice to meet you. It’s nice to have more young people around.”
Bourne-san is still smiling as he greets Makina. As I watched him, I muttered to myself.
…… People are not as they seem, so don’t let your guard down, huh. It’s true …… This guy is smiling, but he’s pretty strong ……?
“Then, once again, cheers to our new friends!”
” ” “Ohhhhhhhhhh! Cheers!” ” “
“Fufu, he seems like a nice guy.”
“Yeah, I guess I’m going to enjoy my life here?”
“Basleigh-chan, sit on your brother’s lap.”
“No!? Die, just die ……!”
“Whoaaaaaa!? Don’t use your [Fatal Wound], I’ll seriously die, okay!?”
It’ll be fun, maybe ……
Should I still go on a journey, after all? For a moment, such a thought flashed through my mind.
Basleigh’s past was put on hold for now.
Now let’s move on to the story of Makina’s master.
Thank you for reading!

“I’d like to increase the big brother’s turn.”
Because she hates him!? You have a bad personality, you know that!?
