Reborn as the Hero’s Daughter! Time to Become the Hero Once More!

Chapter 336

Unlike the dinner, we headed to the inns cafeteria to eat breakfast. When we showed our faces there the next morning, the place was filled with strange rustling.

Whats going on?

Lyell promptly sensed the strange mood and quickly went to ask people about it. It was probably my imagination that his walking looked a bit unsteady.

I wanted to think that it wasnt the after-effects of Marias punishment. I didnt want to imagine the kind of punishment thatd leave damage on THAT Lyell.

Meanwhile, Maria left the seat and quickly ordered meals for everyone. The harmony of their actions could be said to have come from their long time spent together. Cortina looked at those two with a somewhat envious expression.

Envious?

Huh? Well, yeah. A bit. I cant imagine myself becoming like that.

Really?

I agree with Nicole. You can be unexpectedly devoted.

Get off my case!

The topic seemed to have been embarrassing for her, her face was beet-red. She was quite prone to get shy when dealing with her comrades. She was extremely adorable like that from my perspective.

Nhehe.

She quickly picked up Kabby who had reached her feet and put it on my head. Kabby had been growing lately, so it was a bit tough to keep it on my head.

Fugyu.

Kyahaha, daauu.

Fina started hitting me as I was being crushed next to where Maria sat. Her hands were covered with drool and made my cheeks all sticky.

Ugh, youre so mean Fina.

Youre the big sister here, so you should handle that much.

Maria offered me a handkerchief while laughing. I took it and wiped the drool, but now Kabby started licking me. It was probably trying to clean the drool from me, but it was having the opposite effect.

While doing that, Lyell came back. His expression wasnt severe, but instead a quizzical one as if he had heard something strange.

Welcome back. So whats going on?

Well, it seems like there was a big rocky mountain to the northwest from here, but it had collapsed in one night.

According to what he said, it turned out that it was the mountain where Den used to live. Besides, Den had been witnessed there sometimes, so people rarely approached it.

But it was so big that it was a good landmark inside the deep forest so it had been quite discussed. A large boulder inside a deep forest that could serve as a landmark was quite a valuable thing.

And such a huge boulder crumbling down soundlessly overnight had become a hot topic.

Soundlessly, huh? This is clearly someones doing.

Among us, Maxwell is most likely the one that could do it.

But hes been busy with the settlement of the city affairs. I dont think hed be able to have time for that now.

Though we managed to keep the harm from the Goblin raid to the minimum, the residential area had been damaged and the barricades needed to be disposed of and so did the corpses.

Maxwell had been tasked with dealing with that and commanding the situation. Nobles might have nominated Cortina, but part of the nobles have given tyrannical orders, so they couldnt butt in so much considering their standpoint.

Then, though it depends on the size of the mountain, maybe you could do it, Dear?

Itd be impossible even for me to soundlessly destroy a big enough boulder that served as a landmark. Maybe Reid has some ace up his sleeve.

No way.

Huh?

Its nothing.

I ended up retorting to Lyells overestimation of me. I was certainly more versatile compared to him, but I havent abandoned my humanity yet.

As I sat prostrated due to Kabbys weight, Fina energetically reached out to me. She was probably aiming to hug Kabby who was on my head.

Maria put her on top of Kabby, squashing me even more.

Gugyu.

Aauh! Dauu!

She hugged Kabby with all her strength and started flapping her legs in happiness. That meant she was kicking me in the neck and shoulders.

Ah, that actually feels good. Keep going, Fina.

Nicole, you sound like an old woman, you know?

Kabby misunderstood my happiness from Finas movements and started kicking my head. Sorry, but you got it wrong. That part isnt stiff.

Leaving that aside. The collapsed site is so tough that you cant dig a hole there with shovels even if you tried.

Oh?

Not just that, you cant even drill a hole with a Tunnel spell, and even acid cant melt it.

What the, sounds scary.

But hearing that much, I could already imagine whose deed it was.

It was definitely Whiteys doing. She probably found out that place was the source of the Goblin Lord and sealed it as a preventive measure. But I couldnt help but point out that her flashy way of dealing with it had ended the whole thing on a poor endgame.

Still, that Whitey did some work this time.

As I mumbled to myself, I pinned Kabbys paws that were still hitting my head. Maria pulled Fina away next and Kabby was taken along with her.

Conveniently, the food arrived just then.

While feigning ignorance at Whiteys deed, we enjoyed a relaxing breakfast for the first time in a while.
