On the night of the rendezvous with the Krone, Ain was visiting the castle of the demon king.


    Long ago, when thend was prosperous as a king''s capital, many warriors were gathered in this ce, and now only irreceable families are gathered.


    Ain talks about what he just decided.


    "I''m ahead of schedule, but I''m going home tomorrow."


    The reason he carried his legs was to ask about the fairies and to ask if Lorraine had any idea of the monster materials he wanted.


    As it stands, I can say both of these have been resolved.


    To be precise, Ein returned the fairy to his parents, but we already have the information we need.


    (I wanted to slow down a little bit)


    Cain and Sylvia, who heard the voice earlier, look at Ain''s face and feel the emotion.


    If you put it in your mouth, it will be a waste, so don''t put it in your mouth.However, this is not a lifetime farewell, and it wasforting to think about the history of reunion.


    "Come back anytime."


    "We''re going to King''s Landing again soon."


    So, that''s it.


    I knew I''d see you soon.


    "Thank you very much.... Mr. Archer, I came all of a sudden to take care of you."


    "No."


    "I''ll see you soon..." What did you just say?


    "Nh, I said no."


    …………


    It seems that I didn''t hear you wrong.


    Archie, sitting on the throne with herp on herp, turned her head and said she was not willing to ept Ain''s objection at all.


    I know how you feel, but Sylvia mes you for this.


    "Don''t get me wrong.I didn''t just want to be with this kid, but for a good reason. "


    Say it.


    "If you''re going to a secluded valley, you''ll need local guidance."


    "--Ain, didn''t you hate it when you left?


    "I don''t know what you mean.I''m not going to miss you so easily because I''m an adult. "


    "Sylvia, it''s just an idea.That''s why there''s a contradiction in the words. "


    Seems so. If I''m going home, I think I''d at least like to go with you. "


    "... people call it evil."


    I couldn''t even reopen it before I reopened it.


    The lightly discovered Archer puts her arms around her chest, turns her back (,,,,,,,,) and closes her mouth.


    But looking at her tricks, Cain and Sylvia seem to have no choice.


    Surprisingly, it was positive.


    "When I just heard the words, I felt like it wasn''t bad."


    "Me too. I agree with the idea of guiding the way locally."


    "Well, that would help us too... but how about letting the First King show you the way?


    "Don''t worry if you want to.Use it. "


    "Let''s do it. That''s good, Archer."


    Archie was satisfied with her cheeks loosened in a delightful color that could not be hidden.


    Tighten your chest and shake your legs on the throne to cheer you up.


    "Fufu. I can''t help it, so I''ll help you."


    "Stay calm.I''ll show you the way. "


    "Nh, just leave it to me!


    Loose. How loose.


    (But)


    Will Cain and Sylviae?


    Ain turned his face when he cared.


    "Don''t worry about us.Archer alone would be enough, and I''d like to avoid it if everyone could leave the castle. "


    "Oniichan, you should take your time with the couple."


    "Hah... so don''t get on my nerves..."


    Sylvia keeps saying.


    She wasn''t going to stop Archer from taking Ain''s word, but she was worried she wouldn''t bother her instead.


    "I''ll write you a letter, so you can give it to Ain''s grandfather."


    In this way, Archer''s apaniment became full-fledged.


    ◇ ◇ ◇ ◇


    After all, it was Ain''s idea to leave the Demon King Castle.


    The next day, Ain dropped off the Royal Water Train from the Adventurer''s town of Balt to King''s Landing after another day passed and lunch passed.


    Archer, who had left Demon King Castle for the first time in a long time, seemed to enjoy himself on the water train.


    I was staring at the changing scenery from the window of the car and standing still.


    It''s Archer, but it''s the Devil King.


    As Ain said, Ishtalica''s first king, Marc, founded the country even earlier than he had been thought to be in recent years.


    In other words, from the people who live in the imperial castle, they are the biggest guests.


    "--- Somebody call Bellia-sama."


    As soon as I get back to the castle.


    I was surprised that Archer was brought here for some reason, but Martha instructed me to do so calmly.


    It''s not that the load is heavy.


    In view of history, it was decided that Archer was the castle''s best service to deal with.


    "Master Archer. Wee!"


    "Nh. I''m sorry I came suddenly."


    "Of course not.We wee our servants, Mr. Archer.Now, you must be tired from your long journey.Can I get you something sweet? "


    But Martha noticed the little creature that Archer had on her chest.


    I wonder. That little jellyfish creature.


    Because my legs are moving, I don''t think it''s a stuffed animal... but first, I talked to Archer about dealing with him first, and then I looked at Ain and left.


    Then Lloyd came to rece them.


    "By the time you came back, I thought you were feeling better."


    "I was missed by a fairy child.I think you should think about it while we''re together. "


    "Mm... what is a fairy?


    A few minutes to summarize and exin what you heard over there.Lloyd nodded in an intriguing manner, and his expression was strange or smiling.


    However, I can be surprisingly convinced that Ain is involved.


    "I didn''t expect you to bring the living."


    "After all, I hear it''s not big enough to affect the castle people.In my case, it was already influenced, so if we were together, it wouldn''t go back. "


    "Hmm, isn''t that inconvenient?


    "If I say no, it''s a lie...."


    "Well, I was wondering if I could take care of you in a ce other than a castle."


    "I also thought about the proposal.But I don''t feel the same when I think about going back to my parents. "


    "Oh, I''ll return it to my parents...?


    Given the circumstances, we must now obtain the permission.


    ... what would Silverado say?


    Father.


    Dill, who had been standing behind Ain, opened his mouth.


    "As Ain-sama just said, the adult fairy insects were heading towards the unspoiled valley.However, it is a ce with too few peopleing and going and there is still too little information.Archer was there to guide Ain. "


    "I don''t know, but your majesty--no, if it''s your recent majesty...."


    Everyone thought they would allow it.


    There is also Archer for this time.


    From day to day, it is around Ain, where Ishtalica gathers some of the most powerful fighters, but when Archer is there, the story changes again.


    If you don''t think about the quality of life...


    Even in normal times, it may be safer to be in King''s Landing if you seed.


    "I''ve never been to a secluded valley, but I''m going to be on an airship."


    "That''s right. I heard there was no water train."


    "I have just told you that I will answer your question."


    "Father, Master Krone is supposed toe to you first."


    "Ah, first of all, from Ayn-sama.Your Majesty will have less trouble than that. "


    …………


    Rust from the body.You deserve it.


    No matter how active they are, no matter what they call heroes, the personality of the Ain that unites the front and back is sometimes hidden.


    Klone would be a good candidate for getting ahead.


    "So, where''s the Krone?


    I''ve already taken Chris to your side.


    "That makes sense."


    "They''re very reliable and very helpful."


    "It is the same thing as our subordinates.Let us look forward to the future more than ever. "


    "Yes, my father is right."


    With meaningful words in his mouth, Lloyd drooped his head.


    Turn your back immediately and walk out.


    During Archer''s visit, he also intended to contact the knights, but the walking legs stopped immediately and returned to Ain without standing for a few seconds.


    "Sorry, I forgot to tell you something."


    "What happened while I was gone?


    "Yes, it''s not a particr problem, but Lorraine contacted me to tell me that she would like to meet and talk to me as soon as Ein returns.Probably about the ck Dragon ship Bahamut. "


    "Okay. I''ll get back to you."


    "I heard you coulde to theb at any time."


    (Does that mean you''re at the King''s City Institute?)


    We can''t just expose Ain.


    Then you should take the carriage.It would be better to touch the carriage as much as possible, so that Ain doesn''t think of it as a carriage.There are some carriages in the castle, just like when you get back from White Rose Station.


    "Dill"


    "Are you going now?


    "I think so.I don''t know. "


    "I wonder if it would be good.In order to exin to His Majesty, as Krone had suggested before leaving, it would be better to leave it to both Krone and Chris first, and don''t worry if Archer and Belia are around. "


    In other words, Ain has no work to do in a hurry.


    On the contrary, it would be more meaningful to deal with Rnd.


    ----Because.


    That''s why, Mr. Lloyd.


    Yes, I understand.


    I decided to go down to Lorraine first and ask him about my errands.
