That night, since we want something a bit fancy, we stop by Nero’s place.
And since we have a reservation, we get a room without any problem.
Iris, Till, and Sephilia just happen to be here too, so they join us at our table.
Iris seems particularly curious about director Jeru, and keeps asking her about how I was as a kid.
It’s really embarrassing to look back at my past self, so I don’t really want to hear it, but since everyone’s having fun, it doesn’t feel bad.
“Master Loyd was an airhead even back then.”
“Hey, what’s that supposed to mean?”
“I respect how you’ve always been a hard worker, sensei!”
Mars is moved by my Water Ball training, and starts talking about swinging his sword ten thousand times.
“Till, I have also made a decision.”
“No.”
“Eh!? I haven’t said it yet!”
“You’re going to say you want to be let off work while Miss Jeru is in Minerva. Absolutely not. Take responsibility for your job until the end.”
“Kuh!?”
What do you mean kuh!? Is she really looking to slack off?
She was so diligent during that month in Roland, but started slacking the moment she returned to Minerva.
People really do change depending on their environment.
“Sephilia, please admonish the lady as well.”
“Sephilia! You’re with me, right!? We’re best friends!”
“If we really were, you would not be saying that to me. Surely we are strangers.”
“Noooooooooooooooooooooo! I don’t want to work!”
The saintess is unseemly, and doesn’t care who sees it.
This… Is Iris, the proud saintess of Minerva. What a shame.
Izekiel was just pretending to be one, but the way she devotes herself to the role makes her more of a saintess than Iris.
Is it too late to swap them?
“Is there anywhere you want to go?”
Sephilia asks director Jeru.
“I want to see what Loyd is like when he works.”
“Then we should go to the adventurer guild. Friend, if you are doing a quest tomorrow, I will join you.”
Says Sephilia. Her eyes are full of motivation, and she looks more excited than usual.
I also want to show director Jeru how much I’ve grown, so I accept.
The next day, me, Sephilia, Mars, and Lela form a party and gather near a forest.
