"Whoa, here we go."

Looking at Mr. Ginal's voice, he ran with a wave of hands.

What's the matter with you?

I think it's still time to stay in the underground cave.

You're early.

"Ah, a little bit of a problem, and all the adventurers evacuated the underground cave."

Evacuate?

"What happened?

Oneechan's worried look caught up with Ginal.

And a little surprised, Mr. Dinal.

"It's okay. Just a few adventurers missing."

I don't think that's a problem.

Or is it common in underground caves?

Well, there are people who don't come back to the normal cave, so you're with them.

"Would you like some tea somewhere? I'm so tired and tired."

"There was a sweet shop nearby, okay?

Dinal sees how your father points.

Was it a dumpling shop?

"Oh, for now, I'd like to sit down and rest."

After your father and Mr. Ginal, you head to the dumpling shop.

The store was not so crowded that I could sit down right away

After ordering dumplings for a while, tea and dumplings came out.

It's a warm dumpling.

Oneechan happily carries it to her mouth.

Mr. Ginal liked it too, so I asked for a replacement immediately.

Early, when did you eat?

Fu ~, you ate it.

I watched Ginal drink tea satisfactorily with a smile.

That would satisfy me if I ate ten of them.

"So, what happened in the underground cave?

Ginal shrugs at your father's question.

"As I said, we don't know the whereabouts of a few adventurers who went into the underground cave. There's a fairly powerful monster in the underground cave."

He did say that there was a monster with special powers in the underground cave.

I wonder if there were monsters on guard...

Mr. Ginal. What about the other two?

I wonder what happened to Garritt and Fischer.

You're not hurt, right?

"Those two went for a drink. You can rest assured that you are safe."

That's good.

Still, I'm worried you're missing.

"I hope they find us soon."

"... that's right."

Is that it?

I feel like there was something going on right now... maybe there were some blood marks left?

If so, it's already...

"Ah, yes. Doloids and Ivy aren't adventurers, so it doesn't matter, but we're going to investigate the Adventurer Guard. So I think the whole village is going to be a little noisy."

Investigating the Adventurer Guard?

Don't ask for the first time.

"Why?

"They miraculously found all the missing person's luggage, but they found a forged Adventurer Guard among them."

Fake Adventurer Card?

Does that mean you're going to trick the magic item at the gate?

"There will probably be rumors in the village this evening. Rumor has it they found counterfeit cards in the village. So it looks like all the adventurers are going to be investigated."

Something terrible is going on.

... you're not getting involved, are you?

Still, is the fake adventurer card found in the underground cave belonging to the chaser?

That being said, why did they go to the underground cave while they were at work?

Is an underground cave that fascinating?

The more I ignore the nobility's request...

"Oh, yeah. It's a forged card from the Adventurer I found, but it contains the people I told you about."

Well, that means someone from the pursuers, right?

I... don't think I need to find it ~

"That ginal. I need to ask you something....."

I'm curious, so let me ask you something.

"What's wrong?

"Why did they go to the underground cave? Until you neglect your job."

Thanks to that, oneechan was ready, but I was worried that there might be a trap.

"To be discreet."

Father looks at Mr. Ginal and says.

Is that it?

I'm kind of stunned at your father's expression.

"I guess so. I'm sure if someone hadn't gone, they'd have made it stand out."

Did you try to stand out?

"Underground caves are a dream for adventurers. Someone got a lot of money there. However, if you don't show interest, it's strange. Of course, there are some adventurers who come to this village for work. It is only natural that there are people who cannot go to the underground cave immediately. However, it will be noticeable if the number is more than ten. Especially when they looked around, it would have looked like they had spent a few days at ease. Many adventurers have noses. It would be troublesome if I could keep an eye on you. The only way to be calm was to be as interested in the underground cave as any other adventurer."

I see.

There were a lot of chasers in the back.

But how can you make it stand out... like that?

"There's been some weird rumors since last night."

Rumor has it.

My father smiles bitterly.

"Ah, there's a fake among the adventurers."

Fake... that's why the pursuers had to pretend to be interested in the underground cave.

I can't believe I went to the underground cave to deceive you and got attacked by a monster... a little...

You deserve it.

Because I was aiming for your sister's life, I don't think she's pathetic.

Still, is that what the Dinals did to you?

"Yes, those who are sharp in the rumors may have already learned that an investigation is under way. By now, the dark men behind may be rushing out of this village. Well, there's already a special vigilante waiting at the gate, so we're going to a quick jail."

"Vigilante? It's early."

"Someone advised me on something. Someone's missing."

It was definitely the Dinals.

I went missing in an underground cave... well, I deserved it.

Mm-hmm.

Even so, Mr. Dinal smiled well.

Speaking of which, I was pretty happy when I found the underground cave.

Did you think of that at the time?

Wow.

"Ivy, Maria, it's okay to be in the village?

Dinal shouts at his father's words.

"If you ask me, I can't say for sure, but you'll be fine."

When I glanced at Mr. Dinal, he smiled.

Does that mean they're all in jail?

Well, why don't we get a place to stay?

Nod to your father's words.

If you're all right, you should get some rest.

"How about staying at the inn with us? It's a good place to have a cheap bath."

Bath!

I nodded at Mr. Ginal's words.

"Where is it?

My father is asking about the location of the hotel from Mr. Ginal.

Two boulevards into the back.

"Can I stay with the Dinars?

"Yeah, can I have your sister, too?

"Of course."

That's a decision.

Mr. Ginal stood up.

"But is the room open?

"It was open when I checked it in the morning, so it would be fine."

Were you planning on getting the hotel ready in the morning?

My father smiled bitterly.

"Is it okay to have a room for two and two?

Ah, it's the first inn I've had since onee-chan got together.

I see. Me and Ivy, maybe Maria?

Hmm?

"Doloids. Ivy and Maria will have one."

"... I see."

Are you feeling depressed, Dad?

"Don't you have a room for three?

"Yes, but...."

When Jinal sees her sister, she looks at her strangely.

"Well, yes. Would that be more reassuring?"

"Yes, because it's safer for everyone to be together."

Ginal nodded at oneechan's words and stroked Pong and oneechan's head.

"Okay. Is that okay with the druids?

As my father and I nodded, we went to the inn to take up the room.

"So, are you done shopping?

I bought clothes and shoes, so there shouldn't be anything I need.

"It's over, isn't it?

Well, no, I want Maria's magic bag.

Oh, a magic bag for oneechan.

There is only one spare, so it is not enough.

The capacity of one of them is also small.

Magic bag. There's an item store on the way to the inn, would you like to drop by?

It was decided to stop at Mr. Ginal's words before heading to the inn.
