"I'm sorry, Roland. It's all my fault.”
"This isn't something worth apologizing for, and I'm not angry. Those two people didn't do anything wrong. After all, they have their own insistence, and we can't force them…Besides, Rena, do we need to apologize? I love you."
"Me too. I love you, Roland.”
Roland and Reina sat around the dining table. There were all kinds of food on the table that the two of them could never finish. Of course, Roland could never finish it alone. These foods were actually prepared for Reina.
In contrast to her slim figure, Reina Bark Inu was a real glutton. Roland only ate a little bit of the big strange bird from before, let alone the food. The rest of the meat went into Reina Bark Inu's stomach, and she was not the type to gain weight.
The two of them professing their love to each other might seem a little mushy to others, but as the two parties involved, they did not feel embarrassed. When they said the words "I love you," their facial expressions were the same as usual, without any change.
Roland was calm, while Reina was all smiles. It was impossible to tell whether they were serious or just joking when they confessed their love to each other.
After eating and drinking to their fill, under the shocked gazes of the surrounding people, the two of them came to the cashier and paid a gold coin under the dumbfounded gaze of the cashier. Then, the two of them turned around and left, leaving behind a group of frightened people.
Spending one gold coin on a meal? Was he raising a woman or a lord?!？
The two of them strolled along the bustling streets of the Imperial City. The young man and girl they had seen by the restaurant were gone. Although Roland was a little worried about the two of them, he quickly let go. After all, this was someone else's business, and he couldn't care about them one by one.
He found an open-air stall, paid for it, and sat down to rest. He bit on the straw that the boss had given him just now and drank it. Reina curled her lips and said,"According to the contents of the letter, we should be going to Night Raid, right?”
Roland nodded slightly and said," That's right. Night Raid is managed by Nagata. Actually, it's not bad to be assigned here. Nagata is a good woman. She has a strong soul, and she's very thorough.”
Hearing Roland praise another woman in front of her, Reina puffed up her cheeks and knocked Roland's head unhappily.""Roland, you idiot! Not qualified! Not qualified! Praising other women in front of Reina, what a pervert!”
"Hey, hey, hey…I'm just stating the facts. You don't have to react so strongly, do you?”
Although Reina's fists were soft and did not hurt at all, if Reina continued to make a scene like this, something unexpected might happen. It would not be good if she was noticed.
So Roland grabbed Reina's fist and comforted her a little to calm her anger. The table was filled with all kinds of desserts, which Roland had just bought from the boss to apologize to Reina.
Looking at Reina eating the dessert in big mouthfuls, Roland really wanted to dissect her and take a good look at the structure of her stomach to see how it could hold so much food, even though she had already eaten so much in the restaurant.
With so many desserts, Reina forgot all about her previous unhappiness. She scooped ice cream with a spoon and said vaguely," By the way, Roland, do you know where Night Raid's stronghold is in Hillford?”
" Night Raid is a highly secretive assassin group. They need to change their stronghold frequently, so even the headquarters doesn't have a specific address. But it doesn't matter. They will come out to do missions eventually. Just follow them when the time comes.”
"You're right…Boss! Ten more servings of this ice cream!!”
Rena raised the empty cup in her hand and turned to shout at the boss who was working at the counter. Roland was stunned when he heard that. He immediately looked at the table and realized that the pile of desserts had been wiped clean.
"Reina."
"What?" Eating the ice cream that the boss had just served, Reina looked at Roland innocently.
"Enough is enough. Eat, eat, eat. You only know how to eat all day!!”
"Hey!"
"It's useless to act cute!"
At this moment, on the other side, after Roland and Reina had left the restaurant, the young man and girl that they had met earlier were wandering on the street, thinking about how to make money first and eat their fill. At this time, someone took the initiative to find them.
It was a sweet-looking girl wearing a blue dress and white boots. She had a head of beautiful golden curly hair that fell over her shoulders. This girl walked to their side with two guards with a smile on her face. One look and one could tell that she was a noble lady.
"Hello! Um, are you guys from out of town?”
"Ah, um…may I ask who you are?"
Shayou and Illyas, who came from the countryside, were a little flustered when they heard the noble girl's question. This was the first time they had seen a real noble since they grew up in the countryside.
It was different from the two people they had met in the restaurant. After all, this blonde girl in front of them looked like a noble. It was absolutely impossible to treat nobles with the same attitude as the two people they had met before. They subconsciously thought that nobles were a very noble group.
"Ah, I'm sorry, I'm really sorry…I forgot to introduce myself. My name is Arya. If you don't have a place to stay, do you want to come to my house?”
"But, but we don't have money.”
"If you guys were rich, you wouldn't be wandering around here. To be honest, I've been watching you guys for a long time.”
"But-"
"Aiya, no buts! If you feel guilty for accepting kindness for no reason, then help my family with some housework. In this way, you can be considered to have worked hard and had enough food and clothing. How about it?”
Seeing the noble girl's sincere gaze, Shayou and Eliyas looked at each other with troubled expressions. However, since the other party had already said so, it would be a little too much if they still did not agree.
" If we can work hard in return…"
"Yes! Then, it was a happy decision!”The golden-haired girl smiled sweetly.
