Now that we’re in front of the bulletin board, we track down the list of missions we can carry. And if I remember what Julie has mentioned, we can carry as many missions as we want… Of course, that is a hyperbole.“We can grab around ten C=Rank missions, twenty B=Rank missions, and thirty D=Rank missions, I think.”“Yeah. I think so too,” Choe seconds. As well as Prince Faelar, who is beside us.Even though he will not join us for our next adventure, he is glad to come along and view the tasks as if he’s part of the gang… which he is. Although we can carry dozens of missions in our list, it doesn’t mean we can accept them all. We have to put it in mind that being unable to fulfil the missions or failing it will lead to disastrous consequences… such as lowering guild points and paying for reimbursement. I remind Chloe and Prince Faelar about it. They acknowledge my advice and proceed thinking how we can do this.“I think it’s better if we can grab the missions that will lead us toward
[Today is Chloe’s Birthday!]The system was also announced. Much to our surprise, Chloe has turned nineteen years old based on my system. And when Prince Faelar and I found out, we immediately got up from our seats and hurriedly towards the busy streets.Luckily, even this world has that kind of culture as well… celebrating birthdays and having a feast of a lifetime! This is a memorable event. Even Prince Faelar knows exactly what must be done, considering it is the day when Chloe is born.When I check for my birthday, it appears that - excluding the jumble days of the calendar in this world - my birthday is still a few days ahead of me. I don’t have any spare time to mark it. And even if I do, I’m not the one with the spotlight. Chloe is.And besides, this is also a different pace from the usual ones we have experienced. We have been fighting for our lives and protecting our dreams. The best thing we can do is to have fun and relax.Right now there isn't anyone out there planning to
After purchasing and placing it in an extravagant-looking gift box with a red bow, I ask Chloe about it. This should happen first. But since a lot has happened, and I don’t want to ruin Chloe’s enthusiasm, it’s better if I ask her afterward, which is right now, to avoid any moodswing… I have heard girls have this kind of thing. Not everyone!... But it’s a scary thing, and I’m a guy who’s careful at everything. “Why did you focus on buying Prince Faelar gifts rather than purchasing one for yourself? I’m sorry for asking, Chloe. I just… can’t help it, you know? We have all the money right here. There are a lot of clothes that are appealing to girls , right? Maybe…” I cut off my own sentences and refuse to continue my words. I know I have said enough… And I know what I have said has already reached Chloe, despite regretting everything I’ve said. I know that the war and what has happened to her robbed life. Chloe should’ve been just a regular teenage girl, fantasising to have a charmin
After purchasing the Japanese book, we go to the rendezvous place and wait for Prince Faelar. As soon as we have arrived, Prince Faelar is still nowhere to be found. Since it has come to this, Chloe and I have decided that we should browse whatever we can read from the manuscript and see the life of this… legendary adventurer who was also reincarnated in this world, but died due to… unforeseen events.According to the book, this person right here is somewhat called…. Aratatatat. He might have misspelled his name. Aratatatata has ritten on this book that he has been a pirate for so long, but was a college student before he got reincarnated. Why a pirate? Chloe and I both asks the same question.Thankfully, Aratatatat says here that people back in his world, which was also mine, could fly above the clouds and so on. He valued the peace of his world. So when he became a pirate, Aratatatat did everything he could to protect his sister… and live a normal life as much as possible. Aratatata
As soon as the two show off their accessories, the three of us continue talking to each other, find a restaurant, fill our stomachs, and… end the journey right here.We continue the conversation until the three of us have reached the castle’s gates. It is a long walk. Fortunately, the sun is still out, and we still have a few minutes before the moon can rise again. There is a debate where we can meet with Prince Faelar’s parents tomorrow, but… we’re already here. Our group might as well talk to the King and Queen and get this over with.Besides, Chloe already knows what she wants to say. And so does Prince Faelar. Prince Faelar’s only request is that… he doesn’t want to be involved with this. And even if he does, he knows that this will just anger his parents. Chloe and I understand his circumstances, since in the beginning of this mission, we just asked Prince Faelar if we could meet his parents. And that’s going to be taken care of a few minutes later…“I guess… this is it, huh?” Pr
We are invited inside the castle. There are guards standing on their post, watching Chloe’s every move. They still suspect Chloe as someone else besides being a guest with Prince Faelar. These elven soldiers thought that Chloe is some kind of individual who would take advantage of the situation… or end up killing the royal family.“Why is Prince Faelar friends with… such a total stranger?”“Maybe he’s under a spell? That is likely the case… I think.”“Or maybe it has something to do with a bribe or forced deal that Prince Faelar had made… Maybe he has fucked up? I don’t know.”Those are the baseless rumours the soldiers have presented. But none of them are real. In fact, Prince Faelar is the one who made the request. And Chloe right here just accepted it. If it weren’t for Prince Faelar wanting to visit the Sanctum of Ugmjir, he wouldn’t be with the topic.But these royal members of the Elven Republic do not know a thing. And besides, Prince Faelar had a blast with us. Between Prince
Throughout the meal, Dilya has striked a conversation with Prince Faelar and Chloe, asking about random things such as where he has been and what kind of event he has done. It’s not because Dilya is curious and worried about Prince Faelar. It’s about gauging and putting up the pieces if she trusts us or makes a mistake where our stories don't collide.But there’s nothing for us to hide besides me and the conversation Chloe has to do to build an alliance. Besides that, we disclose everything. Much to Dilya’s surprise, she believes it at the end of the day. However, she isn’t happy about it. As soon as Dilya is finished with her meal, she stands up, lets the servant take her plates, and leaves the room without a single word. But before she leaves the place, Dilya turns around and meets Chloe’s eyes. And then to Prince Faelar.“After what my brother has explained, I do not apologise for attacking you… since you’ve eaten our food and I believe you can stay for tonight… It’s not like ever
We don’t go through any meetings with Prince Faelar’s parents. Prince Faelar already knows Chloe has met dozens of nobles and leaders during her young age, so she shouldn’t be nervous at all. And if she is, Chloe is anxious not from the rulers but for what they are going to say.Prince Faelar also knows that I will be here with Chloe, suggesting the right thing to say. And even without my help, I too know Chloe. And she will not say anything rash, not unless the rulers of the Republic wish to provoke Chloe. This is the time we have been waiting for. The moment of truth is now in front of us. And the only thing for us to do right now is to let the guards know Prince Faelar and his guests, Chloe and I, would like to speak with the King and Queen. Usually, we need an appointment to meet the leaders of the Republic or Kingdom. But since we know Prince Faelar, we don’t have to go through that process.The only people standing before us are the pair of elven soldiers guarding their post. B
