"Good morning, Sylphy!"

"Good morning, Yuta. I know you're excited, but calm down a little. Those belles who are clinging to Yuta are missing you.

Sylphy scolds me lightly with a look that says I'm a good-for-nothing girl. Yeah, well, she's certainly clinging to me more tightly than her usual morning greeting. ......She seems to have been too excited because of the departure today.

"I'll miss you!" "Coo-coo!" "I'll be patient!" "Coo-coo!" "I'll be fine!" "............"

Ugh, I feel guilty about the healthy words of Belle and her friends. ....... Am I allowed to go out and play with these lovely girls?

Is that what this is? Maybe it is similar to the feeling of a wife who is tired of raising her children and is given the gift of a relaxing trip to take off. Well, in my case, it's spontaneous. .......

Well, I'm backed up, but if I hold back here, something inside of me will ...... explode, mainly the lower part of me. I've done a lot of thinking and preparation for today's departure. I'll just have to get Bell and the others in a good mood and then we'll be on our way.

"Hey guys, I'm sorry I'm the only one who has to leave. But I'm going to pick up some souvenirs, so please bear with me a little bit.

One by one, I pat each of them on the head and try to persuade them. I try to catch them with something ......, my father used to buy me souvenirs whenever there was something awkward. It's strange to feel a blood connection here.

"Souvenirs?"

Belles cocking their heads. Well, Moon, whose head is stuck to the wall, can't be seen from his blind spot, and even if he could, he can't tell where his head is.

"Yes, a souvenir. I'm going to get something delicious or fun for everyone who's going to be staying with us, so look forward to it.

The belles are mulling over my words. I guess they have never received a gift before, so they can't imagine what it would be like. At least we will be able to get some eels, so even if we can't make kabayaki, we should be able to make them happy. This is the part where we have to convince them that souvenirs are fun.

"What kind of souvenirs would you guys like?"

Tasty... cue... fluffy? Cooooooooooo, it's sake! ......"

The Belles answer cheerfully: ...... Huh? I'll ask Belle to translate Rain's, Tamamo's and Moon's requests later, but Tulu's request seems to be difficult. I'm happy to get more mofos, but it's hard for me to go out to catch animals when I'm on vacation.

Also, I think that Flare's request is just a reflection of ifs, so I'm going to reject it. Anyway, the souvenir for the Great Spirits is alcohol, so it's not a problem. In a different country, the taste of the same kind of alcohol would be different, and there should be no complaints. On the other hand, they will be disappointed if you give them something other than sake as a souvenir.

"Well, well, I don't know what I have in store for you, but I'll find something that will please everyone, so look forward to it. But I don't plan on going out to catch animals, so it's going to be a little difficult to get Tulu's fluffy hair. Sorry."

"...... is fine."

Tulu nodded, looking a little disappointed. It was a little heartbreaking, but it was better than expecting a fluffy souvenir and going home with something completely different. Now that Belle and the others have turned their attention to the souvenirs, let's eat breakfast and get going while we still can.

**

"Okay, guys, we're going to stay here for three days and two nights, but I'm counting on you to take care of paradise for us. Also, take care of the guests who are coming to the village of spirits. Oh, Gina, Sara, Marco, Kikka, there's no need to rush this assignment. Please consult with Sylphy, Belle and the others and do your best with Fuku-chan and the others. Don't do anything dangerous.

"Master, don't worry. We won't try it out of the blue, and when we do, Sylphy and the others will be with us. Besides, I will only partially test it at first.

It's okay because Gina has undertaken it well. Well, I don't think I made a mistake in telling you the assignment at the wrong time. I should have done it after we got back from the trip, since it wasn't urgent. I'm a little worried that I gave Gina and the others an assignment in a different direction because I couldn't think of what I wanted them to cook.

Breakfast is over and it's time for me to leave for my solo trip. ...... I suddenly feel uneasy. It's the feeling I get when I'm excited but I'm not sure if I've really locked the door of my house.

"Yuta, don't worry so much, Gina and the others will be fine in the village of spirits. Especially in the village of spirits, you made sure that there were enough people last time.

Sylphy looks at me as if she's taken aback when I warn Bell, Gina, and the others about some minor details. Well, it's true that the last time the spirits visited the village of the spirits was very easy. Not to mention the fact that there were five more chaperones, the children of the middle class spirits took good care of the children of the floating spirits and the children of the lower class spirits, so the time passed peacefully.

We were divided into five groups, and each group had one chaperone and one intermediate level spirit, and the rest were floating spirits and lower level spirits, which was a good feeling. I thought it might be a little too much work for the intermediate level spirits, but they seemed to be enjoying themselves even with the little ones in tow, so I guess there was no problem.

I know, the village of spirits and paradise will be fine. It would not be a bad thing if I enjoy my trip alone and come back refreshed and full of energy to work. Yeah, it's okay.

Sylphy is right. "Sylphie's right... we'd better get going."

If we don't, we won't be able to make a decision anytime soon. Finally, he pats Bell and the others and tells Sylphy that he is leaving.

"Why are you acting like we're going to fight for our lives when we're just going on a trip? Let's get the hell out of here!

Sylphy wraps me in a cocoon of wind, looking a little annoyed. I know what you mean. Well, I'm sure it'll be fine next time, so give me a break this time. I wave goodbye to Belle, Gina, and Fukuchan, who send me off, and depart.

I'll be fine this time.

"Yuta, I see it, that's the capital of the Kingdom of Beryl.

Oh, it's true. Sylphy was right, there is a castle next to the lake. And the castle, the town, and the lake are much bigger than I imagined!

The royal city is still far away, but it is clearly visible. The lake is also much larger and clearer than I had imagined. And I can see proper ships coming and going. ...... that's a sailing ship, isn't it? I see, the lake is big enough to need sailboats. I have never seen Lake Biwa from the sky, but it might have looked like this.

"You must be surprised."

"Yes, I'm surprised. The Kingdom of Beryl is amazing.

Sylphy nods in satisfaction. I had asked her a lot of questions during the flight here, but she had been slightly distracted. Maybe he wanted to surprise me by showing me this view out of the blue.

"Yuta, we're going to walk a little bit, but is it okay if we go down by that forest?"

While I was observing the royal city in a daze, Sylphy asked me where we were going to go down. Right, I've come to visit the royal city, so I have to go down there. Of course I can't go down in front of the gate while flying, since I have to hide the fact that I'm a genie magician.

The place Sylphy had indicated was a little far from the capital, but it was far from the road and seemed to be secluded. I nod my head, and we slowly drop down to land at the desired location.

"Thank you, Sylphy."

You're welcome. So, Yuta, shall we part here? Or do you want to go with me to King's Landing?"

"Hmm, you don't think there will be bandits all of a sudden, do you?"

I'm traveling alone. I don't want to be attacked by bandits too soon. I don't think I'd lose to a bandit now, but I'd probably kill him by accident. I don't want to spend two or three days in a depressed mood. I've killed a lot of demons ...... and I've fought zombies and skeletons, so I think I'll be okay, but there's no need to try now.

"Before we went down, I checked the area around here and didn't see anyone. It's not that far from the capital, so I doubt there will be any bandits.

You did your research. Thank you.

"Then I'll go alone from here. It's a short distance to travel, but it's better to walk alone for a while to give the impression of traveling alone. What about Sylphy?"

"Well, ...... I'm worried about the barrel of sake Yuta left for me, so please repatriate it."

Sylphy answers my question with a straight face. I left about ten barrels in the living room because I didn't feel comfortable going alone. I made her promise not to drink until Sylphy comes back, but she's still worried about me.

I'm going to send you home. Give my regards to everyone."

"Yes, Yuta, feel free to summon me if you need anything. Don't be too hard on yourself.

I nod in agreement and repatriate Sylphy. I don't plan to go to the Adventurers' Guild, and the only place I'm likely to get into trouble is the nightlife district. If I get ripped off at night, I'll just have to make do on my own. Well, it's the capital of the king and you have money, so you should be able to avoid getting into trouble if you go to the high-class restaurants.

However, I also like the atmosphere of the city, so I'll go to see some cheaper places too. With a light footstep, we head for the gate of the castle, thinking about our plans. It was hard to be away from Belle and the others before we left, but now that I am alone, I feel a sense of freedom.

I feel a little sorry, but as an adult man, I can't stop this excitement. I suppress the feeling of skipping and speed toward the gate. Since we have only three days and two nights, we only have two chances to have the nightlife we want. We have to move efficiently.

**

"You traveled all the way dressed like that? Are you alone?"

After waiting in a long line, we finally reached the gate, and the gatekeeper looked at us curiously. Yeah, I felt like a bit of a failure while waiting in line too. I wasn't planning to fight, and I was dressed in plain clothes. Obviously, I'm not a floater.

I thought about pulling out my magic bag and putting on my gear, but since I'm going to enter King's Landing as a naive countryman, I can't help but feel a bit uncomfortable with my magic bag and all my gear.

"I'm alone, is something strange? I just got out of the village, so I don't really know what's going on. ......"

I got a sermon. If you're going to travel, country boy or not, you'd better have a weapon to protect yourself! He says. He is so right that all I can do is nod. I bow my head and tell him that I have no ID. We pay the entrance fee after checking with our crystals that we are not criminals, despite the mumbling.

The admission card is valid for three days. If you don't have your ID by then, or if you don't leave the capital, you will be put on the wanted list. Be careful. If you don't have any guesses, go to the Adventurers' Guild. Okay?"

"Oh, yes. Um, I'll be fine. I'll just go back to the village after I do my shopping. Thank you very much."

Bowing again, we finally enter the capital. It might have been easier if I had prepared a fake ID. But first, I should at least equip myself with a weapon next time. Okay, my reflection is over. Now all we can do is enjoy ourselves as much as we can.
