Anika grumped, with Wenammy, Okami, and Pearl joining her. Alex hugged them, promising to return as soon as possible.
He left with Nadyian to his room, and Anika snorted.

The bell rang in Tokyo Metropolitan Nishi High School, and Class 1-A was already in their classroom, waiting for their Mathematics Teacher. Sakamo Ryu entered, and while the students were wondering who was that young man who was going to the Teacher’s desk, he smiled at them.
Sakamo Ryu was visiting a Shrine in Tokyo following the advice of his adoptive father, Sakamo Yahei, to see the Capital and find out if he could adapt to a life there while studying in High School.As he was walking along the sidewalk of one of the several busy streets, he stopped near the gate of a Private Only Girl’s Elementary School, wondering why the need for a separation of genders so early. A girl’s scream made him look back in surprise, and he saw a big man in a dark blue suit, dragging a little girl who was kicking and fighting to get free.Sakamo frowned as he heard the girl say, “Let me go
After nearly an hour of walking, they arrived at the vicinities of the main gate of the Imperial Palace. Sakamo thought it was weird if she lived there, but probably her parents worked there. To his surprise, a group of four men ran to them as soon as they recognised the Princess, and one of them shouted to Sakamo, “Let her go! Why are you holding her hand like that? Why did you kidnap her?” Sakamo felt Hiko trembling as she hid behind him, and he whispered, “What do these guys want? Are they friends of those guys this morning?”
Alex Brim was already thirty-five, and for the last two years, he had been living permanently in Azurath because his forever-young look was making people suspicious of him on Earth. So, without informing anyone, he purchased two one-way tickets to Nepal for himself and Hangaku Mae, leaving on his kitchen counter a single note stating that they were going to live in a secluded monastery deep in the mountains for their retirement, leaving behind his stressful work at the Earthquake Institute and as a part-time teacher at Tokyo Metropolitan Nishi High School.

TheAlex Brim, Hero for Hire Curiosities and Names
Alex Brim was finishing his lunch, together with his Party for that Quest. Gabriel Dawson got up after finishing his meal and said, “Before anything else, I need to pee. I will be right back to help with tidying the campsite.” The Fairy Wenammy spoke while disguising a smile and trying to remain serious, “If you get in trouble, try not to scream like a little girl. It’s kind of embarrassing hearing such a big man scream like that.” Gabriel grunted. “I didn’t scream like a little girl when those Goblins attacked us in the morning. I made out a very virile scream because of surprise!”
Alex skilfully avoided the questions by talking the least possible about him while riding his horse next to James Macdonald. “I am used to having my employers doubting my skills in the first job, but then they realize I am way more powerful than the money they paid for my services, and they always hire me again.” “Well, I will be one of them, for sure. Your services were extremely useful, and we completed this extremely dangerous Quest with none of us dying, and… I was told that you are also a powerful Mage, but I only saw you using a sword, daggers, bow, and your shield. I noticed you glowing a little with Magic when you were running at an incredible speed to that Orc, but it was only that time.”
