The carriage arrived safely in the village of Elf without even one wounded.

A merchant man - Debri said to us.

"Because we're going to sell the goods to the elves. All escorts, while you're at it, take your time touring the village."

Leaving it at that, the merchants walked away.

For us it's time to rest, but for them it's time to get real. Their face to the battlefield of business negotiations was serious.

I've come a long way at the risk. I hope it works out for you.

"Well. Suppose I sweeten up to your words and look around the village? What about you two?

"I forbid. Because today's routine is still here."

"What's the routine... another workout?

"Yes, we need to brush the arms of the sword more and aim for further heights"

"Well done. Don't be a jerk, okay?... That's different. If you're going to be strong, you're going to have to be a little impotent."

Just doing the same amount of workouts as others can't push you through. I knew all too well about the area.

Elsa nodded, then looked toward Regina.

"Um. Mr. Regina. Can't you make out with me?"

"... what?

"Play one-on-one with me"

"We would have settled before"

"At that time, it was a battle from a situation close to Mr. Regina's surprise attack. This time we fight each other under the same conditions."

Regina has an awesome attitude in front of Elsa's challenging eyes.

"Waste. You can't beat me. All the more so on equal terms."

"I wouldn't know if I didn't try."

"Why don't you hang out with him"

And I spoke.

"If I could meet with as many swordsmen as Regina, it would be a good experience for Elsa. I thought I'd lend you one."

"Father..."

Regina, who was snotty, eventually shrugged to throw up.

"You can't be responsible for breaking your heart."

"Don't worry about that. My daughter isn't that nasty," Regina snorted boringly when I said.

"It would be good. Little girl. I'll deal with you."

"Thank you"

"I'll do it. I'll do my best. You've got to be ready."

"Absolutely."

"I guess even if I stay here, I'll get in the way. I'll be walking around the village for a while."

When I turned my heels back, I left them.

The village of Elves at the foot of the great tree was busy. Everyone has a tolerance for loving me, too, who has come from somewhere else.

I bought a lot of things because of it. I felt comfortable shopping.

After walking around, I went back to Elsa and the others.

Would it be time for a settlement?

Elsa seemed to have torn to Regina. I could see him kneeling on the ground and squeezing his lips in remorse.

"... hmm"

Regina put the great sword on her back and walked over here as she cut her gaze from Elsa. The look was unsafe and cool.

"Looks like you were just finishing up."

I handed Regina the water I bought.

"What is this?"

"They say it's a special water that could have been taken in an elf village. It seems nutritious and good for beauty. Thanks for hanging out with Elsa."

"Mmm."

When Regina received the water from my hand, she drank it.

"I knew from your eyes, Elsa still there?

"Oh. I don't really feel like losing. But..."

"But?"

"Previously, there was an extraordinary increase in body cleanliness than when I exchanged swords. It is commendable that we have made this eye-catching leap in this short period of time"

"Heh. That's unusual. I didn't know Regina praised others."

"I didn't decide not to praise anyone else. Just no one worthy of recognition. You say good things are good."

When Regina drank the water off the elf, she walked out.

"Where are you going?

"I look around the village too. I saw something earlier that bothered the store. I'm telling you, don't follow me."

What the hell are you going to buy?

Well, I'm not going to pry.

I walked over to Elsa after I dropped Regina off.

"Elsa. Tired. Here, plug it in."

To Elsa, kneeling on the ground, he handed Elf's water.

"Father, I had no power over Regina again."

"As I said before, he's one of the best swordsmen in the world. Don't worry so much. Besides, he was praising Elsa, right?

"Is Mr. Regina here?

"Oh. He said it's a big deal that you've been raising your arms so much in this short period of time."

…………

"What's going on? Shut up."

"No. I thought you'd regret it."

"Regret?"

"Praise means it's not seen as reciprocal. If you're looking at someone on an equal footing, you're under threat."

Oh...

I did think Elsa might be right.

Praise the opponents you fought for because you still have room. If you're really feeling in crisis, you shouldn't be able to afford to praise them.

For Elsa, it would be disgusting to be praised.

"Still, you've been working out more and more these days than ever before"

"I really want to beat Regina."

"To prove the correctness of your sword?

"No. There's that too..."

Elsa, after a mouthful,

"It's not Mr. Regina who lines up next to your father, it's me who wants to be. … I don't want to give it to anyone else"

That's what I've been telling you, looking straight into my eyes.

After I finished, Elsa blushed, returning to me like she was angry. I shyly leaned down and squeaked.

"Shh, sorry...... Be thick..."

"No, I didn't know Elsa thought so. Glad to hear it."

When I laughed at Elsa, I stroked her head.

"But then I have to work hard, too. When you stand alongside Elsa, you have to work out so you don't look inferior."

I can't let it get to my daughter's feet.

"Let's work together, each other"

When they met up with the merchants in front of the carriage, they looked limp. They got a very good deal on everything.

"Hey. Thanks to you, I was able to make a lot of profit. You'll get enough change minus your escorts. Ha ha."

"That was good. I'm happy to be us."

It would be too pitiful if I ended up just coming this far and damaging it.

We get paid for escort duty even if we don't have a good deal, but it doesn't make sense if the client doesn't take pleasure in it.

It's not for the money, it's for the mission.

"Well, thank you for escorting me on my return trip."

"Leave it to me"

The carriage after the village of Elf runs out towards the king's capital.

Compared to going, the return itinerary was peaceful itself. As planned, I was able to come back to the Adventurers Guild before sundown.

Anna welcomes us.

"Dad. Elsa. Good day, Regina. Looks like this mission went well, too. The merchants were very happy."

The merchants told me that they would pay extra when they returned to King's Capital. You've done your part. [M]

But we declined. Because I already got paid enough.

"- Oh, yeah. Dad."

"Hmm?"

"Daddy's been on a high-ranking mission lately, hasn't he?

"Oh. Right."

Ever since he came to Wang Capital, he had accomplished a high ranking mission to continue standing.

"If you keep going like this, maybe you can get promoted to S-rank"

"What, I'm in S-rank?

"Not sure yet, though."

…………

Anna told me a story, and I accidentally froze it.

I'm the S-Rank Adventurer?

A dream I've been chasing ever since I left the village and became an adventurer. I gave up once. That could come true......

"Mr. Regina's eligible for promotion, but you've been giving her a hard time, haven't you?

and Anna said to Regina.

"It's this time, and why don't I get promoted with my dad?

"... right"

Regina shrugged in the sense that it wasn't even a bad idea.

Anna, who was watching how it went, told the receptionist to tear it up while poking her cheek cane.

"Or maybe Regina wasn't promoted because she wanted to be promoted with her dad"

…………

Regina got Anna's word and the bat looked badly out of sight.

"Huh? Could it have been a star?

"Heh, heh!

Regina made no affirmation or denial and was about to delude herself when she rang her nose. I turned away, but my ears were red and ripe.

... right. Am I an S-rank adventurer?
