Chapter 23: 23

As you can see from my interactions with Emilia and others, we didn’t break up the party because we didn’t get along.

The reason…well, to put it simply, it was a difference in direction. At the time, I believed that if I gained experience as an adventurer and rose through the ranks, I could become the hero I had longed for as a child.

The reason I wanted to become an adventurer was because when I was a kid, I was saved by an adventurer when I was attacked by a monster. That’s all.

It’s a very common and boring reason, but I admired the back of that adventurer who stood in front of the monsters to protect me at that time …… or, to be honest, even now.

I used to belong to a party called “One Sword”.

It consists of six members: Adras, the leader and spearman; Emilia, the swordsman; Kasha, the healer; Roy, the archer; Froimel, the wizard; and me, the magic swordsman.

All of us were countrymen, and we met when we came to a big city dreaming of being adventurers.

By the way, occupations in this world are pretty random. Your occupation is Fat. It’s not like someone is going to judge you.

We were working in another country at the time, and we were a promising mid-level party there.

If things go smoothly like this…that’s what I thought.

However, as one’s rank rises, so do the various troublesome fence ties. That is probably why Emilia and the other “war maidens” were called by the lord of this city today.

Making connections with the next S-rank adventurer.

If you think about it normally, it will be mutually beneficial. I don’t know what Emilia and Kasha will think.

…No, Emilia would be angry, no doubt.

Ever since we met, Emilia has been a strangely serious person, and she would often run wild and be stopped by Kasha. They are a good pair, those two.

Well, I have heard nothing bad about the lords of Bastok, so maybe they really wanted to ask something about the “Garden of Flowers.

I’m curious too, and I’ll let you know next time I have dinner with the kids and Kasha.

… No, but Iska and Fio will be happy, but Ariamel might be complicated.

Why did Iska and Fio want to become adventurers? What if this is because of me……

Dad is confident that he will cry.

I finish eating the lunch that Ariamel made for me and sit down to look up at the sky. I would like to lie down on the grass, but I might get dirty. Ariamel is doing most of the housework now with the help of Iska and the others, and I don’t want to add too much work.

……I’m getting sluggish, I’ve been taking on a lot of easy requests lately that can be done near the city.

And my weight is definitely increasing. I’m sure I’ll gain weight if I eat delicious meals for breakfast, lunch, and dinner every day.

…This is what I call happy fatness.

I thought about getting up and at least running to the Adventurer’s Guild, but decided against it because it would be futile.

…What’s for dinner tonight?

When I entered the Adventurers’ Guild, it seemed that Emilia and the other “war maidens” had already returned. I thought they were invited to dinner.

When my eyes meet Emilia’s eyes, she walks towards me. There is something wrong with her mood, like she can’t afford to be….

“You’re back, Gray. What kind of request did you get today?”

“It’s a resident request, exterminating monsters near the city. Right now, I want to finish it quickly and go home before the sun goes down, so I’ve only received simple requests.”

“…for those children?”

“It’s also for my own sake.Emilia, you’re the one who came back early, weren’t you invited to dinner?”

“Oh, I was invited, but I declined.”

…Wasn’t the lord of this city a count? Did you turn down the offer of a nobleman?

“…And I wasn’t invited there today to talk about the Garden of Flowers.”

I guess

“Then what was it?”

Emilia’s face turns serious when I ask her that question.

“I heard that a hero was chosen by an oracle in another country. We, the War Maidens, were asked to be sent as party members.”

Hero? Even though there is no demon king?

“Why the hell would anyone want to talk about it to an A+ party in another country?”

“…It’s probably because we’re a party of ‘all women’. The hero is manly, in other words, that’s what it means. It’s also higher in rank and less unnatural. I guess it was perfect for us. ……I’m kidding.”

“By the looks of it, you’re not even going to take it, are you?”

“Of course not! This is just a human sacrifice, no joke!”

“Emmy, calm down. You’re being a little loud.”

Saying that, Kasha speaks up.

“I’m sorry she kept you, Gray….and if you could, please pretend you didn’t hear what she just said. Come on, Emmy.”

“…Oh, I’m sorry Gray. See you later.”

“Oh”

I watch as Emilia and Kasha leave.

A high ranking party refuses a request from the country……. I hope it won’t be troublesome.
