The Strongest Fairy

Chapter 26 Taking a Stroll and an Emergency Request

「Arena, I think it's probably the right time to leave and aim for the capital」

「Nuh?」

「It will be a bigger city, and there will be Royals like Testania-san」

「A biggah Town! Woooah!!」

Unanimously, the journey toward the kingdom has been approved. And after all that, I am now giving a lap pillow to arena, it will be just a while more until evening.

「Unnnn...」

「Oh, are you getting sleepy?」

「Unn... sweepy~...」

Arena is already at the point where her eyes are almost closing. If I think about children around her age, then it's almost nap time now. Well I lay down Arena with a lap pillow though. When I was stroking her smooth hair she went to sleep while smiling. I also closed my eyes for a while, and later it was already sundown.

「Nuuh, My legs~」

「Heyah~」

「Uhh, please spare me~」

When I woke up, it was already evening. At that time Arena played around with my numb leg. It was torture! I also suffered from stiff neck...

We rode a cloud again when we returned to the town. I can the setting sun on a distant mountain.

The sky's gradation changes from a whitish sky to a night sky. Stars are already coming out. The moving clouds disappearing beyond the mountains are probably forming into rain clouds.

「It sure is peaceful」

「Wisdom~?」

「Oh, have you learned some difficult words?」

「Ehe~」

If possible, I would like someday to be able to make friends with more people, of course along with Arena t

「Oh, welcome come back! Aidle-san a staff from the adventurer's guild was looking for you? 」

When I entered the Inn that I stayed in, the Inn Lady's daughter said that to me, but I decided to put it on hold for today. I'll see what it is tomorrow.

「So why did you asked me to come today?」

「Eh? Ah, right, about that you see. I was getting really impatient and wanted for you to come over here sooner.」

「Did anything happen in the city today?」

「Well, there's nothing of that, It seems that the subjugation troops still haven't returned」

It doesn't seem to be a problem related to the town but is urgent. It's probably not just an ordinary request.

「Ah, you did mention about an emergency request.」

「If possible, I would like for you to accept it.」

If I don't go and refuse, there will be huge penalties for the adventurer. I guess, I can't just decline it. To follow this guild master's schemes, it doesn't really leave a good taste. I told the Inn's poster girl that I won't be coming back for a while, and then left the Inn after that. An adventurer sure feels like working for a black company.

「Though I asked for Rena-san to find you at the inn but it seems that you were absent, Just how long were you away from the Inn?」

「Is that how you ask for a person you threatened with an emergency request?」

「Oi, oi... ...」

Drew-san who was waiting for me at the entrance urges me to come in. He ask me to talk while having a drink, but that won't deceive me.
