105 Gossip: Brothers Reunion

Ain and his men returned to the king's capital one foot away.

Meanwhile Kaisel remained in Baltic with Majorica. Why I stayed on this occasion because I somehow remembered so many nostalgic things that I was immersed in sentiments.

"Mmm, this lousy booze. Long time no see. Wow."

"Hey, I know it's bad. So keep your mouth shut."

"Because it tastes extra bad, you mean?

"... you've been doing that for a long time"

Two people drinking up cheap liquor. It was a flavor that I could drink, and it's not a very tasty drink, but it was a habit.

Entering the store is a large, commonplace, and its inexpensive cuisine and liquor is a delicious dish for less earned adventurers.

"... but well. I haven't had a bad drink with you in a long time. Something that tastes better and stings better than it used to be."

"I can't believe we're soaking up memories and drinking. We're getting old too."

I don't know how many more glasses of alcohol I keep stirring up and mouthing even more subtle flavor knobs.

If they earned money, they'd be able to get into a fancy store. But it wasn't an option, because we couldn't really feel like ourselves.

"It's about time you followed me."

"What is it? I haven't had enough words for a long time."

What Kaisel was thinking, naturally, was about Ain. It was about the King Prince Ain, who left Baltic in the morning and returned to the King's capital.

"You know what I mean? Ein said it was time to go to King's Landing."

"Oh, you know what?... I'm sure. Are you safe?

One of the knobs is a thickly cut ham.

It's a luxurious looking dish, but it's crusty and low in oil. Think of it, I know exactly what you're doing with cheap meat.

But still, Kaisel loved to pour that crunchy meat into his mouth and pour it in with cheap liquor.

"Goku... Goku... Puha - still a subtle flavor"

"I like that. That. Strange how it looks delicious for a moment."

"This is my pleasure, it's the best way to stain the meat with flavorless liquor."

Values vary from person to person, but some things, like Kaisel, are more important than good taste.

There are different ways to have fun, and this is a treat for him.

"Hey there monster! Are you having fun eating such a bad taste?

"Gahaha! I wonder if you know what the monster tastes like!

"... Hey Majorica. You're being taunted."

"Nothing. Fine, just let me tell you. Because it's a mass store, it's normal to be a lot like an idiot."

This would be one festive poem, with adventurers selling fights like fools and third parties doing it. In case we're going to deal with this, it's the beginning of a fight where arms say things.

"Well, that's true."

Kaisel and Majorica, in their active years, reigned as a handful of… so-called powerful men.

What we know about ourselves doesn't come to a mass store like this. I guess that's why they sell fights like this without even thinking about it.

Think of it as a good old sight, a smiling sight that I don't feel quite right about.

"Here, take a look. You look boring."

"Oh, really, you're young."

Young adventurers with a white face.

They should be tired of making requests and dealing with demons. I envy its success the other way around because I want each of these events.

"I thought... but I'm just gonna take my seat off, okay?

"Ah? Hey, where are you going, Majorica?"

"You have a customer. I don't like to be free, and you're going to deal with those boys...... the guy from earlier, come out." Rah! I'm not gonna turn you into an ass hole Gabba. Aah!?

Majorica stood up well and walked away with nasty words in her mouth.

When Kaisel wonders about it, a well-dressed old man sits down in Majorica's seat.

"Can I sit here?

"... you're not gonna sit down and then ask, asshole"

Thank your partner for taking care of me and Kaisel glances at the man who sat in front of me.

"The Count doesn't look good in this shop."

"Whatever the store is, it's a fine town for me. There's nothing to be ashamed of."

I spoke to the store owner and placed some orders.

His name is Riselle Bart. Lord of this town and fruitful brother of Kaisel.

Naturally I was surprised to see the Count, but the Count put his hand in my mouth and sends me an autograph asking me to keep it a secret.

"Sometimes this isn't a bad vibe.... because I'm obsessed with it and they don't seem to notice it."

Kaisel was relieved to see her soft-boiled brother and not change.

Even though I left the house on my own, it's still a pleasure to see my older brother.

"I heard that. I didn't think you'd be so calm about teaching at the Royal Kingsland School."

"It's a lot of stuff. … and it's not a bad place to go."

"Ha... well, that's good"

Riselle mouths the liquor the shopkeeper brings. It's not usually the kind of booze he drinks, but still he drinks it satisfactorily.

"That's not bad. And at this price, it's going to sell pretty well."

"... right. Run out and drink this and get big."

I don't know how many years it's been, I probably haven't been face-to-face in nearly fifteen years.

Gray-haired, wrinkled face. If you look at your brother like that, you can't help but feel the flow of time.

"Oh, hey... sorry!? So no more... heh... heh, don't hit me..."

"Ah." Ah!? Stop fighting and sell. What the hell?

Seeing my partner continue to fold the cage as a delight, he seems to be doing it quite enjoyably.

He seems to be using his best sealing skills and suppressing movement from neck to bottom. In an adventurer in a tavern like this, there won't be a single one.

"Your friend looks like he's having fun."

"Don't you have to stop me? Isn't he and his brother the people to protect?"

"Oh, that's okay. The adventurers are going to learn and be strong. I guess I should be grateful for my education."

Baltic lords seem to have a demanding education.

Zero thirsty laughter, Kaisel hands on his substitute booze.

"So, how long are you in this town?"

"... I might stay another week"

Thankfully, they have rented the lodging for a while at the royal measure.

Until the end of that period, I had decided to stay in Baltic because of it.

"Then it's just fine, because of what? You should show your face to us, too."

"There's no way you can get it out, stupid brother. I'm not a Baltic anymore..."

"Are you still saying that? Totally... the owner, the account."

Riselle calls the shopkeeper, even with a frightened face on her face. I don't know. The Count is busy, I'm sure he'll have work to do.

"This is the payment for this table, and if it's not enough, charge us, okay?

"It took... awe!

I took one gold coin out of my pocket and handed it to the store owner.

Shopkeepers also panic about money they don't normally see in taverns like this.

"Oh, hey! As much as we pay... --"

"Put your brother's face up. Can we do this?... Never mind the trouble, come and show your face once. Even before your father and mother's grave, you won't be punished if you go and say a word."

Responsibility for what you've been free to do. I was going to, and I wasn't going to be in Baltic's house anymore.

But my brother Riselle has told me to show my face at home, not to worry about that at all.

"Responsibility comes out as much as it takes. It's only natural if you're alive, Kaisel. No matter what I do, I can't erase the connection between me and your blood. That's the same thing with the dead fathers, isn't it?... so show him your face. I'm sure your fathers want that too."

Such Riselle left the store without waiting for Kaisel's reply.

Say whatever you want, my own brother who doesn't wait to hear back. At least listen to the reply, and the end of saying yes resentment.

"... do I have to talk to Majorica"

Flowers to accompany my parents' graves. Kaisel, who thought he should take about that, decided to talk to Majorica about what to do.

"is refreshing wow. But you're not sloppy, the adventurer these days... Oh, what's wrong?

My partner, who came back in good time, had a refreshing look in contrast to Kaisel.

Though he was frustrated with his face, when he returned to the inn, he bowed his head with the thought of a severance and begged for teaching.
