I think we won’t be that close even though we do adventure together.”

 

“Really? If you have same skills and stuff, you’ll get along well, right?”

 

“Well, that’s also correct.”

 

Meira-san tried to evade the subject.

As I thought, there is something odd about relationship between Meira-san and Louiselia-san.

We put out our orders after Kalua-san returned.

We ordered 5 of their new menu plus the dessert Rattlua-san always gets.

After a while, a plate of fluffy, jellylike dessert and fruit juice are served in front of me.

 

“Let’s dig in.”

 

All of us took our spoons and ate our desserts.

We are healed instantly as the gentle taste of the desserts spread in our mouths.

Delicious.

 

“Delicious, isn’t it?”

 

I nodded, and ate another mouthful.

I drank my juice after I finished my dessert.

I felt refreshed.

 

“This is so delicious, Rattlua-san.”

 

“Hey, Ivy.”

 

“Yes?”

 

“Um, I want to pick some tea leaves.
Will you accompany me to the forest?”

 

Going to the forest together…this has to be a trap.

How do I refuse?

It’s complicated.

 

“What do you mean by tea leaves? The one I drink?”

 

“Yeah, I think it would be perfect for after meal.
I want to get some, but I don’t know which tree to pick.”

 

It’s kinda hard to refuse her request.

 

“I don’t know if we can find them in the forest around here.
I walked around the forest from the subjugation place to this town, but I didn’t find any.”

 

“I see.
Do you think we can find some if we go a bit further?”

 

“I’m not sure about that.”

 

“Then let’s look for them together?”

 

Louiselia-san also jumped in to the conversation.

 

“I’m coming with you guys.”

 

“You have work, right, Rattlua? I’m having days off so I can go.”

 

Days off?

 

“Ah, Marma and Tort are training together for a few days, so the rest are having days off, huh?”

 

“Yup.
I know you’re being targeted, so I’ll protect you.”

 

“I heard the gist of it.
I’ll also protect Ivy, so no problem, right?”

 

Louiselia-san gave her support to Meira-san.

I have no other reason to refuse anymore.

 

“Then it’s all good.
Saizerg said we aren’t accepting any mission for the time being.”

 

“Eh? Why?”

 

“Oh, because it’s an important time period for Cival.”

 

Rattlua-san boldly answered all Meira-san questions.

I couldn’t tell if he’s telling the truth or not.

But nobody said anything about that yesterday.

Then again, I don’t know anything about Cival-san’s situation.

Is it the truth or not?

 

“Then, why don’t we all go together?”

 

Louiselia-san frowned at Kalua-san’s suggestion.

She seemed to be somewhat unwilling to do so.

She quickly changed her expression when she noticed that I was looking at her.

 

“Kalua, so you also like tea?”

 

I can see that Louiselia-san and Meira-san were baffled at Kalua-san’s action.

Perhaps Kalua-san isn’t related to the organization after all?

 

“I liked it since I drank Ivy’s tea.
Also, can I also bring my friends?”

 

“Who’s that friend of yours?”

 

Kalua-san pointed towards the group of 3 men in the shop.

The one he pointed at looked a bit flustered.

 

“It doesn’t have to be today, you know.”

 

Meira-san’s slightly loud voice echoed through the store.

We were all shocked and looked towards Meira-san.
She looked flustered.

 

“Hey, what do you mean by that, Meira?”

 

Louiselia-san quickly covered for her, but she’s quite confused herself.

No matter how you look at it, I don’t think this organization is that sophisticated.

Perhaps they have some internal problem?

I wonder if they haven’t realized yet?
