"Oh, there are people over there. Are they the Knights who stayed behind?"
"Yeah, you're right. Let's join them."
Upon reaching the scene, we first joined the Knight who had already started searching and proceeded to inquire about the situation.

Seeing the gun in Sekitora's hand, almost as a conditioned reflex, I shot at his hand.
"Aaaaah!"
Sekitora let out an exaggerated scream. What an annoying guy.
The people had crowded around the bed. Looking at those soldiers, Hitachimaru and Toshitane unhesitatingly shot their legs. They kicked them when they groaned and crouched down.
The two white coats were covering Naruhito. Were they protecting him? Looking closer, blood flowing from his le...

I received a rice ball. I managed to take a bite, but I couldn't swallow the seaweed. As I struggled with the first mouthful for a while, Mutsumine, who had been supporting my back, murmured something about not being able to eat rice balls. He took it from me and left.
When he returned, the rice ball, with the seaweed peeled off, had turned into a porridge in the pot, and he fed it to me. It was delicious.
"Oh, it ate."
They seemed relieved....

"Hey. It's about time you wake up."
Shaken, I opened my eyes. When did I fall asleep? I rubbed my cheek against the sensation of the futon. It feels good. I was lying face down, but my back didn't hurt. My right hand and both feet were chained, and I was still naked, but they covered me with a futon.
"Hey, can you hear me?"
Relieved, I was about to doze off again when I was shaken once more. It was the person in the white coat from earlier. ...

Diaz’s Decision
I received reports that Marie was frequently visiting a separate villa.
Then, I received reports that those two entered the Capital after a long journey at the same time.
"My goodness..."
Marie's actions were easy to understand.
That child is similar to me.
She is like me; she is willing to hurt herself to protect what is important to her.

What should I make for dinner? As I was randomly taking out ingredients in the kitchen, Rinka and Jend came in.
"Let me help you."
"I'll help too."
"Yeah, thanks. What should we have for dinner?"
"Beef and potatoes stew."

Well, they're helping, so it's fine.

Dirk’s Point of View
Tonight, we were planning on camping out, but it turned out that Rosarin had a hideout available, so we decided to use that instead. It was safer and more comfortable than camping.
Jend seemed to be cautious even with the hideout, but I was used to it since I've used it many times. Jash and Geraldin-san were inside having tea, so there wasn’t much to worry about.

Alicia-sama's uneasy demeanor made me nervous. Gradually, she furrowed her brows, and while staring at her egg sandwich, she murmured softly.
"Delicious..."
Phew, that's a relief!
I was worried about why she had such an expression, but I'm relieved that she didn't say something like, "You're truly a gluttonous noble daughter for eating such commoner-like food!" and such.
"I'm glad it suits your taste."
After smiling and moistening...

"By the way... what was today's special training in the end?"
Alicia-sama asked, glancing nervously at the shattered wall.
Ah, I see. The wall obstructed her view from where she was.
Probably, she was surprised when the wall was crushed, shocked it was suddenly gone.
"Well, um... my magic is, well, not very good. So, I thought of having special training with Cristea-sama and Ruby to improve..."
Mariel-chan explained anxiously.
I can’t compete…
After petting Ruby until satisfied, Alicia-sama, who had collapsed, stood up. However, her skirt and socks were stained with dust.
Since the training ground sometimes involves earth magic like stone walls, the ground is exposed, so commoners wear robes with dirt prevention magic, while nobles and wealthy merchants' children often have separate uniforms or practice clothes with full-body enchantments for practical use.
It seemed that Alicia-...

The day after receiving the principles of Body Strengthening from Senior Lily, I immediately headed to a secluded place to try it out, with Ulla and Shellche in tow.
Sharing the same secret, we decided to practice together as comrades.
It felt reassuring not to be alone.

After receiving the weapons we brought for repair and the reward for monsters we had dismantled, we joined Senior Lily and headed to the restaurant.
The target restaurant has been a long-time rival of my Father's.
If my Father's shop was for the masses, this place was more high-end, meaning it was not accessible to regular Black-ranked adventurers.
However, since I'm acquainted with the owner, and today we have Senior Li...

I could only eat about half of the hot chili burger...
The ginger water was spicy too.
I managed to drink all the ginger water, but the other half of the hot chili burger ended up in Ulla's stomach.
The total amount for the bill seemed reasonable for the quality.
Since I couldn't eat much, I end up buying snacks from food stalls.
Various dishes are sold in the street stalls in the city of Vardmoi.

A tremendous noise rang out, and the door was kicked open.
With a fever and a hazy head, I couldn't quite grasp the situation. Since I was lying face down, I couldn't move my head much either.
Ikumatsu, who had been carefully wiping my sweat, flinched and then stood up in front of the bed. Five military-clad individuals entered, handling their guns noisily and still wearing their shoes.

Let me be clear.
Hunting with Ulla and Shellche was easy.
Although it was hunting grounds I don't usually visit, the two of them were accustomed to it.
In the past, they used to use maces and beat them together, but now Shellche used magic to lure them out, and Ulla finished them off with a mace.
As for me, I just give orders to the Rockwolves to search the surroundings and keep watch.
