36 Lesson 35
"Yes, leave it to me. It\'s what I\'ve always done, so there\'s no clue."
Hula signs the master of it for each other, and Ethereum holds the refrain.
"Then please start after noon tomorrow. As far as crime prevention is concerned, they\'re not supposed to work if they\'re officially locked in."
When I say that, I hand Hula the gold coin.
"Okay. But I\'m going to the mansion tomorrow morning just in case, so it\'ll be helpful if you explain it to me again then."
"Oh, I\'m not going out in such a hurry, so don\'t rush over there either."
"Rikai"
Hula salutes him to make a joke and sends Ethereum out.
It\'s getting late at night, but as I told Hula, Aeta, who is due out of this city tomorrow, goes to greet the rest of us.
We take the skewers out of the bag and head to the inn to eat them.
There are fewer people, and most of the stalls that were out on the street are closing shops.
I also thought I would go first to the Easy Pavilion of the Chick Birds, close to where I am now, but I headed to the Lords\' Hall before thinking that I would not be able to see the Lords too late.
It\'s getting dark and the number of different people is decreasing, so Ethereum runs through with a little force.
When the Lords\' Hall was seen, it slowed down gradually, and by the time it reached the front of the gate, it had returned to its normal walking speed.
When one of the guards notices Ethereum, he calls out.
"Oh, isn\'t that Lord Sota? What can I do for you at this hour?
A benefactor of the life of his own serving family, who treats Ethereum in a favorable manner.
"Oh, I thought I\'d say hello for once because I\'m leaving this city... it\'s too late, so I hope that\'s all you have to tell me"
"Please wait a moment. I will tell Master Elbas. Whatever. Please wait."
When the guards say so, they run and go inside.
Aotearoa sees the other guard left wondering what\'s going on.
"I\'m sure you\'ll be back soon, so please wait. We will be scolded if we return to Lord Sota."
"Really?
Doesn\'t seem like an angry person. That\'s what I thought. Aeta tilted her neck.
"I don\'t think there\'s anything harshly angry about it, but I still think it\'s cautious why you didn\'t pull it off"
Talking about it like that, I hear a doozy run, and the door opens with momentum.
It was Elina who was ahead of me when I opened it. Behind it was also followed by Elbus, who had let his earlier guards and breath out.
Having confirmed Ethereum at the end of her gaze, Elina runs over to Ethereum.
"Master Sota, are you leaving this city?
Elina looks up at Ethereum with a sad face.
"Lord Sota, I wonder what you mean. They just bought a house."
Elbus also follows Elina\'s words.
"No, I\'m not leaving, I\'m just going away. It might be a while before I go home."
"I was relieved to hear that I was coming back, but I\'d like to hear a little more about it if I\'m going to be available for a long time. Can I ask you to come up, please?
"... ok, let me go up"
Now. I can\'t leave Erina alone with a sad look on her face, and the Lord himself invites me not to say no, followed by the two of us into the house.
In the usual reception room, they sit across the table, with Elbus and Elina, and Ethereum facing each other.
"So, can you let me ask you where you\'re going?
Elina is nodding yeah next door too.
"How many times a day do we have to talk about this story... in short, yes. I\'m leaving for Elf country about noon tomorrow. Sometimes the place is far away, and the time to come back thinking about the possibility of taking time to enter the country in the first place is unknown for now."
Elbus wrinkles between his eyebrows.
"Elf country...... that\'s far away again. Thinking about immigration screening, is it as early as a few months? May I ask what you\'re going to do?
"Well, I can only say it\'s personal business. It\'s not something we can talk about."
"Really? Well, you can\'t tie adventurers to us or your guild for any reason, so I won\'t do anything to stop you. But be sure to come home. I still can\'t thank you enough."
"Yes, absolutely, I want to go. Please come home. I haven\'t been able to repay Master Sota either!
Elina, who had tilted down until earlier, said with a resolute look.
"Well, I\'m looking forward to it. Seeing you run all the way to your doorstep today seems fine, but you need to get back in shape by the time I get back."
Elina, blush her cheeks a little and look down.
"Master Sota is already messing with you."
Elbas was smiling at the interaction between the two like that.
"Oh, yeah. Lord Sota, I don\'t know how effective it is, but I\'ll write you a letter of introduction to help you get into the country. This city is relatively better off interacting with elves, so maybe some help."
"Helpful, for once Karena even wrote it, because from the nobility, I wouldn\'t even be able to be evil."
"Um, I\'ll write it up by the end of the day and have it delivered to the Mansion tomorrow morning. Please wait until then."
Elbus stands up to prepare.
"Then I\'ll let you have some free time, too. I\'m worried about the horses at home."
"Well, I\'ll drop you off"
Both Aotearoa and Elina then rise.
Elvas and Elina, and the servants of the mansion, will be escorted to the Lords\' Hall.
Aotea was going to stop by the inn as well, but as I told Elina late in the day, I was concerned about Ed, so I decided to head straight back to my house.
