Chapter 4-Promise to elves who are afraid of heights

(TL:By Rafael)

"Can we leave the "Colorless Darkness" alone?"(Yuki)

I ask the guildmaster on the deck of the Forneia, still floating on the lake.

"We have Mamaru-san for that and now it's stable. The problem is that the ancient labyrinth that has been sealed up is being activated."(Benwood)

"If anything, this kind of thing is more suited to Mamaru-san, isn't it?"(Yuki)

"If it's a stampede, I'll last longer. I have to buy you time to escape."(Yuki)

Benwood's words made a little sense to me.

If it is sealed, there is a reason why it should be sealed.

If the seal was not broken actively, but by some chance, it may be a harbinger of ...... some great calamity.

─ ─ That's exactly what is mean by "selection".

There are not many adventurers in Salmutaria.

At the very least, there is a shortage of adventurers, to the extent that Prince Mastoma is seeking adventurers outside the country.

That said, adventurers from Wellmeria cannot be sent on court-appointed missions.

Salmutaria does not have the customary ground to accept them, and on the surface, there is no such thing as a labyrinth.

In that case, it is necessary to send a small group of elite people first to solidify the ground.

The existence of the labyrinth would have to be made to look as if it were a new discovery, and the publicity would have to be made to look as if it were an accidental delivery, so that the adventurers' attention would be diverted to Salmutaria.

This would be just the thing for adventurers who are frustrated by what happened to "Glad Shi-Im.

I am sure that adventurers attracted by the new labyrinth will flock there in droves.

This would be just what our king and Prince Mastoma had planned.

Prince Mastoma had planned to make his achievements by searching the labyrinth, but he should be able to gain recognition for his new projects, "the discovery of the sealed labyrinth" and "the launch of adventurers' activities.

Of course, as for us, we intend to explore the labyrinth as Prince Mastoma intended.

A familiar face pokes Benwood's side.

"Master, I didn't hear you say that, did I?"(??)

"I don't see why not, Jamie. You'll be out of the country helping me, out of  everyone's sight. You can stay with Yuki as long as you want."(Benwood)

"I can stay with Yuki as long as you want. ......?"(Jamie)

Jamie, a little red in the face, looked at me and Benwood alternately, her eyes black and white.

Is there something wrong with my face?

Well, I'm just thankful for the fact that there are familiar faces in the room, for me.

(TL:Yuki and jupiter are competing for who is denser)

"She had a tough time when you disappeared in 'Glad Shi-Im.' She kept  saying"I'm going to Duna too! I'm going to Duna too! I told her Yuki would be fine."(Benwood)

"I'm sorry to make you  worried about me, Jamie."(Yuki)

"I-I'm not worried about you!"(Jamie)

Oh, that's hurtful.

Now that we've known each other for such a long time, it would be nice to knoe she had a little concern about me.

(TL:.........)

"So what's the deal with the Nibelung? I thought you and Mamaru-san were going to take care of her?"(Yuki)

She wanted to do so. If it was because of Glad Shi-im, she was worried that she was responsible for it, and she wanted to be with you anyway.She said "I am also a 'Clover'."(Benwood)

"...... that's true too."(Yuki)

Nibelung ended up being welcomed as a member of "Clover".

But since we were out of the country this time, I asked her to stay at home,......, but she was a tomboy. 

"She's got the makings of an adventurer."(Yuki)

"Haha You'll be able to get Jamie into Clover once he's re-registered, right?"(Benwood)

"If Jamie doesn't mind."(Yuki)

"......"(Jamie)

I glanced at Jamie, but she quickly looked away.

Well I feel a little hurt after being ignored.

" We have our differences, but I owe her a debt of gratitude, and I'm looking forward to another adventure with her."

"Oh, it looks like we're about to set sail,"(Benwood)

"I'm going to go see my friends. See you later."(Yuki)

I wave to Benwood and Jamie lightly and turn to my friends who are gathered in the middle of the deck.

I'm sure Silk will freak out when the ship starts moving, so I need to be there to support her.

"Oh, you know what, Yuki?"(Jamie)

"Hmm?"(Yuki)

I turn around to see Jamie looking at me with worried eyes.

'I, can I count on you?"(Jamie)

"Of course. We're all looking forward to this adventure with Jamie."(Yuki)

"What about Yuki?"(Jamie)

"Me too."(Yuki)

Jamie gave a small nod and a small laugh at my response.

I couldn't believe she was smiling like this after all that screaming and laughing.

"I'll do my best this time, and I won't cause you any trouble."(Jamie)

"I'm your leader and supporter. You can bother me all you want."(Yuki)

"You're a ...... softy."(Yuki)

I smiled back at Jamie, who chuckled, and this time I headed for my friends.

When I arrived, Silk was already sitting up and panicking.

"Oh, Yuki! Oh my God, Silk just froze up."(Marina)

"Looks like it."(Yuki)

Silk, with her long ears folded and plugged up, was sitting down and looking down, trembling slightly.

"This is a serious problem.'(Rain)

" No, that was not the case when she was peering into the lower levels of the "Ione Ruins Labyrinth."(Yuki)

"Maybe she simply afraid of this flying ship."(Rain)

Contrary to Rain, Silk is somewhat untrusting of magical tool artifacts.

This may be the temperament of the elves who live with nature in the forest.

"Silk."(Yuki)

"What? Yuki-san ......?"(Silk)

Silk, looking up at me with teary eyes, raises a voice contrary to her usual dignity.

'I know I'm pathetic. I'm sorry. I'll be back on my feet in no time."(Silk)

"Let's see, let's do it this way."(Yuki)

I picked up Silk, who was still stiff, and sat down on the chair fixed on the deck.

" Do you trust me?"(Yuki)

"Yes"(Silk)

No, she's not calm at all.

How untrustworthy am I?

"Here we go, You don't get many opportunities like this in your life."(Yuki)

"And, and we're flying?'(Rain)

"Ah, really it's amazing?"(Yuki)

Silk squeezes my clothes and closes her eyes.

What a waste. The moment such a large magic tool artifact moves, it's a shame to miss it.

Above our heads, the pure white magic sail mana sail spread softly.

TL Note- And the adventure begins.....start already don't just pick up girls.
