Tauro and Aeris went to bed that day in a slightly heavy mood.

The next morning, after a good night’s sleep, Aeris felt better, ate well, and said nothing more about the previous day.

Seeing this, Tauro was about to talk to Aeris about the future of the team when he sensed the presence of Shin and Rumeya.

It seems they are coming this way.

Tauro decided to talk to Shin and Rumeya when they arrived.

When Shin and Rumeya arrived at the front of the house, Tauro opened the door before they knocked to welcome them.

“Good morning, you two.”

Tauro greeted them, and they returned his greeting with nervous faces.

They looked serious.

Tauro could see that and to a certain extent he could guess what was going on.

It seemed that the two had given their answer.

Aeris also sensed the mood of the two and her expression darkened.

“……Well, I don’t want you to stand still, so sit down, both of you.”

Tauro urged them to take a seat.

“Ummm. Yes.”

In the midst of all this, the atmosphere in the room became even heavier.

Meanwhile—

“Actually, we’ve been promoted to D-rank!”

Rumeya opened the floor and spoke up on behalf of the two of them.

“Yeah. Congratulations!”

“Eh? You knew about that? And you’re not mad about it?”

Rumeya asked, surprised.

“It’s your decision, we don’t have anything to say about it. Besides, I’m glad to see my friends promoted.”

Tauro answered, and then he looked at Aeris.

Aeris nodded at Tauro’s prompting.

“And…”

When Rumeya was having difficulty saying what he wanted to say, Shin interrupted him.

“Actually, we’re thinking of leaving the ‘Black Gold Wings’ and forming a team with Yu and Ren! I know it’s selfish, but it’s something we’ve been thinking about!”

He made a serious statement.

Aeris’s expression suddenly turned pale and she looked shocked.

“I see. You’re serious, aren’t you? I guess that means we both have something to protect.”

“Yeah. We can’t afford to cause any more trouble for you guys with our blunder and we want to take good care of them, too.”

Rumeya took over Shin’s statement.

“Yes. I think the feelings you want to cherish are important.”

“Is that okay? We owe you a debt of gratitude, and we don’t think we’ve repaid it! So…”

“We’re all friends, aren’t we? So it doesn’t matter what you owe me. If we choose to make our precious friends happy, then we ought to congratulate them for that.”

Tauro’s answer made Aeris feel as if she were about to cry.

With tears in her eyes, she came to hold Tauro’s hand under the desk.

Tauro gently squeezed her hand back.

“Thank you, you two. Actually, we’re thinking of moving to the city of Ocircus since Ren and Yu say they don’t feel comfortable staying in this village.”

Surely it was because of the trouble they had gotten into in front of the Adventurers’ Guild, and the other adventurers had smoked them out of the village. Tauro wondered, but didn’t point it out.

“I know you both liked the town of Ocircus. I hope you’ll do well there too.”

“Thanks. As a former member of the Black Gold Wings, I’ll do my best.”

“Maybe we’ll see each other again there and you’ll show us around.”

Aeris said, fighting back tears.

“Of course! You can come over anytime. I’d love to be famous over there and surprise you both.”

Shin responded to Aeris.

Shin, perhaps influenced by Aeris, also had tears in his eyes.

“Hey Shin and Aeris, you both shouldn’t cry, okay?”

Rumeya wiped the tears from his eyes as he said this.

“You’re the first one to cry!”

Aeris pointed this out and couldn’t take it anymore and began to shed tears.

Shin couldn’t hold back any longer and began to cry as well, saying, “I’m sorry”.

Tauro watched the three of them, tears streaming down his cheeks without being aware of it.

Tauro was happy that these four had formed the team “Black Gold Wings,” and although the team had originally been created in a hurry, he was filled with pride.

I’m certain everyone else felt the same way.

“Thanks to everyone. This team was great!

When Tauro told them that, they all cried a lot.

There were two pendants left on the table that Tauro had made and given them, showing “Black Gold Wings”.

Shin and Rumeya were the first to see the pendants.

“These are for the “Black Gold Wings” should have.”

Shin and Rumeya had left them behind.

I had wanted them to take it with them, but I guess they wanted to be fair, so I couldn’t force them to take them, so they accepted my offer and returned them.

Aeris was tired of crying and retreated to her room.

Tauro collected the pendant left on the table in the magic storage and went outside.

It was still noon.

Looking up at the cloudless blue sky, a ray of weather rain fell and wet Tauro’s cheeks.
