I didn’t have any fighting skills.


 

I did my best to learn how to handle a small knife… but it was only for dismantling.

 

“Right, that’s why I thought of getting slaves as your guards.”

 

I think I now understand Rattler-san’s point.

 

Certainly, I may be in a lot of danger right now.

 

However, when it came to hiring someone, money…oh, I did remember that I didn’t have a problem with that.

 

I must have forgotten.

 

“I’ll think about it.”

 

I didn’t disagree with him, it’s just that I would like to avoid it.

 

Since he was seriously concerned about me, I should seriously think about it as well.

 

When I grow up, people would see me as a woman.

 

What if it was impossible to fool the people around me?


 

Ciel would draw attention when people see her.

 

It would be no good if people saw Sora, as well.

 

…Huh? 

 

Was it my imagination that somehow the problems seem to be increasing? 

 

“Well, you’ll still be in town for the time being because of the reward money and the bounty are still being processed.
Take your time to think about it.”

 

Borolda-san made me a cup of tea and handed it to me.

 

I thank him and took a sip.

 

The warmth relaxed me.

 

Yes, that’s right, I should not be in a hurry to find an answer.

 

I should take my time and think it over.

 

“Well, tomorrow, do you plan on doing anything, Ivy? Do you have any plans to go somewhere?”

 


Seizerk-san asked me as he tasted the soup for tomorrow’s breakfast.

 

“Isn’t that a lot for a taste test? I’m going to check on the traps tomorrow.”

 

“It’s delicious.
Traps? Oh, I remember you were making traps for wild rabbits.
You do some unusual hunting, don’t you?”

 

Hunting with traps was unusual, after all.

 

I had been told that before, as well.

 

“If I caught something, I’ll dismantle and sell it.”

 

“You’re going to sell it? Not going to eat it? I had a roasted hare once, it was delicious.”

 

Nouga-san asked with regret.

 

Rickbert-san looked at me with a puzzled expression.

 

“Well, if I can hunt enough, I’ll serve them for dinner.”

 

“I’m counting on it.”

 

What is this? I felt like a very heavy expectation had been placed on me.


 

I wondered if this means I should serve it for dinner tomorrow if I can hunt even a little? 

 

“Ivy, I’ll just take the surplus ones from the sale, and don’t worry about Nouga.”

 

Borolda-san said, lightly tapping Nouga-san.

 

Cival-san also scowled at Nouga-san.

 

“Understood.”

 

It would seem that selling would be a good priority.

 

Or rather, Nouga-san was being sullen.

 

Phew, he was acting cute.

 

“Ivy, tomorrow, I want you to pay attention to what’s going on in town.
If you sense any danger, I want you to evacuate to the barracks.”

 

“I’ll talk to the Guild Master as well, so you can go to the Adventurers’ Guild.”

 

Borolda-san and Seizerk-san’s words made me a little nervous.


 

Tomorrow would be a tough day for the townspeople, that’s for sure.

 

How would it go down?

 

“I understand.
If we feel it is dangerous, we will evacuate immediately.”

 

“Oh, I’d like to believe you’ll be okay.
But you know…”

 

Borolda-san shrugged.

 

They could not seem to predict how the shock of Count Faltoria’s capture would affect the townspeople.

 

“The higher adventurers seem to have noticed something unusual.”

 

At Rowcreek-san’s words, I looked at the people gathered in the plaza.

 

They must have sensed the tense atmosphere of the vigilante group.

 

More adventurers than usual had gathered in the plaza, expecting something to happen.

 

Fewer people seemed to be out drinking.

 

“Well, if the vigilantes and the rest of us are moving around, we will be able to notice if something is going on.
Anyone who didn’t notice it is no good.”
