“This is the first time I’ve spoken leisurely with Ruti like this . ”
“Mmhm . ”
Ruti sat beside me and was conversing with Yarandorara .
We had finished our main dishes and were now having dessert, cupcakes and café au lait .
We spent our time after the meal comfortably .
“When I was a 『Hero』, I didn’t want to be bothered with anything unnecessary . I didn’t feel a need to know about my companions and I didn’t see a reason to talk about myself either . At that time, apart from Onii-chan, everyone else didn’t matter . ”
“I see … but it is different now?”
“Yup, Tise is my important friend . Ugeuge-san is a reliable spider . Lit is kind and understands the good points of Onii-chan . ”
Ruti spoke like an ordinary girl stuffing her cheeks with a cupcake, without her sword or armor on .
Ruti’s expression relaxed, showing that she found it delicious .
Yarandorara looked over her with smiling eyes .
“So that is your true self . A cute girl just like Red described . I couldn’t tell when we were traveling together . ”
“I don’t know anything about Yarandorara so it is natural that Yarandorara doesn’t know anything about me . ”
“I am a florist working in the Imperial Capital . A friend of Red when he first came to the Imperial Capital as a child . A 『Tree Singer』 who was angry that my Hero companion Red was chased out of the party and left, and now a person who came in search of her missing important friend . ”
Yarandorara glanced in my direction for a moment .
“Ruti, let’s talk about all kinds of things from now on . About myself, about you, about what kinds of food you like, what songs you like, what flowers you like . All kinds of topics . ”
“Yup, I don’t mind being friends with Yarandorara . ”
Ruti had changed .

In the past, she was constrained by 『Hero』 and could not make friends freely .
Now it was different . She had Tise, Lit, and Yarandorara .
In Zoltan, she also had Oparara and her board game kid friends .
There were people in town who would greet Ruti in a friendly manner when they see her .
I believe the gods were mistaken when they created the 『Hero』 divine protection .
When Ruti was alone in the past, she probably didn’t think of protecting the world .
She was only forced to save the world .
“By the way, Tise . ”
“What is it Red-san?”
“What are you hiding in a corner today?”
I had been curious the entire time as Tise didn’t seem her usual self .
Ugeuge-san was also anxiously moving its legs .
“Erm, that’s because …”
“Oh that . ”
Yarandorara cut into our conversation .
“It’s because in the past Tise and I tried to kill each other . ”
““Eh?””
Lit and I blurted out in shock .
Cupcake spilled from the spoon in my hand from the shock and Ruti caught it from mid-air without a moment’s delay .

“Onii-chan, ahhn~”
“Ah, thank you . ”
As expected from a cupcake I made .
It was perfectly sweet and delicious .
“Wait wait, what do you mean by tried to killed each other!?”
Lit caught hold of herself and asked .
Tise placed the cup with café au lait down and answered .
“It isn’t a complicated story … at that time, I took on the job to assassinate a slave merchant . ”
“Fumu fumu . ”
“So I tried to assassinate him at the place where he was staying . ”
Ugeuge-san leaped up with a pyon .
“Yes, Ugeuge-san was with me too . ”
Tise is an assassin from the Assassins Guild .
Tise rarely spoke about her work but naturally, she must have done a lot of jobs until now .
“And what about Yarandorara? Was she guarding the slave merchant?”
“I, guard a slave merchant? No way! At that time I was working as a bouncer in that inn to earn my lodgings . ”
“Ah~ I see . ”
Murderous intent that usually would be unnoticeable .
But Yarandorara noticed it .

“As a bouncer, I had to stop any fight that happens in the inn . Furthermore, I didn’t know at that time that the customer staying there was a slave merchant . ”
“Since I was noticed, I tried to withdraw but Yarandorarsan was persistent . ”
“It’s a good memory as I remember breaking the road a little due to my momentum . ”
Ugeuge-san raised both its front legs in protest .
“It wasn’t just a little, because of the ancient flower spirits you summoned in the middle of town, the roads were messed up, the buildings were tilted and Yarandorara was chased out of town . ”
“The same for you too . An assassin getting chased out of town was so hilarious that I ended up laughing at the person I was fighting with . ”
“No, it wasn’t a laughing matter . I was ended up gathering so much attention when I was supposed to perform my work in the shadows that my reputation in the guild dropped just because of that one case . ”
It seemed that quite a lot happened between the two .
“ … Not just ordinary matters, but spectacular happenings . ”
Tise laughed bitterly at my words .
“That’s why I took some distance to survey the situation . ”
“I didn’t expect the Swordsman who flew around that time using a spider would become Ruti’s friend . ”
“I was also very surprised to find out that the High-Elf at that time was Yarandorara . ”
Yarandorara extended her right hand to Tise .
“That time we fought because of our jobs so I hope we can put it in the past . ”
“Of course, I am an assassin who can separate my work and private matters . ”
Tise took Yarandorara’s extended right hand and exchanged a handshake .
“Nice to meet you, Tise . ”
“The same goes for me, I’ll be in your care, Yarandorarsan . ”
“Nice to meet you too, Ugeuge-san . ”
Ugeuge-san who was called out to offer its small front leg to Yarandorara .
Yarandorara shook hands with Ugeuge-san with her fingertips .
“Now then, we’ve finished our meals and everyone had finished their greetings . ”
“Yeah, that seems to be the case . ”
The lunch box I brought was empty .
We were immersed in the feeling of content as we enjoyed the pleasant forest air .
“Now, I’ll take about my aim . ”
“Aim?”
What was this about?
“Hey Gideon, Lit, Ruti, and Tise and Ugeuge-san . ”
Yarandorara looked at us .
Her silver hair wayed .
“I want to bring you guys to the High-Elf country, Kiramin Kingdom . There, nobody will betray you and you can live in peace . ”
“Migrate to the Kiramin Kingdom!?”
Yarandorara’s suggestion was something completely outside our expectations .
