The protagonist has left the country safely.
As Ballantyne and his friends joked around, the doorbell of the bar suddenly rang with a 'karari'.
Ah, Dainoji! Good night~. Luca, did you get away all right?
A tall man enters from the bar's entrance.
・・・・, I've just left the inn. I just left the inn.
Thank you for checking".
The man is a big man, but he's not a good man.
'Well, we'll go first.
Ballantyne, sprawled on the floor, greets them with a flutter of one arm.
'・・・・Why are you lying on the floor ・・・・?'
Ballantyne, who sat up and sat down again, picked up a mug and toasted it in front of Dinozi.
'Thanks for cleaning up after me.
'...
Ballantyne and Dinozi exchanged cups in silence.
We, the 'brave company', exist to make the true heroes of this story the heroes.
Nothing more, nothing less.
The important thing is to let the protagonist stand on his own as much as possible in the early stages, which is about 90% of the time. The rest of the time, as the story progresses, there will of course be some parts where we get involved.
How do we know that? What does that mean?
This is our salvation and the only way to be forgiven.
It sounds nice to say, but I think we take this role because we want to.
Hey, Dinoj.
Dinoj is always silent by default.
How long are we going to...?
You're very drunk tonight, Mr Ballantyne.
Oh, no. I was about to say something forbidden. Cold sweat trickled down my forehead. The drunkenness has suddenly sobered up.
Oh yes, that's right. I drank a bit too much.
Hey, let's go home too.
The next morning
In the dining room of the inn I met the usual members of the group.
Profession Angelica, Saint.
Profession: Grand Wizard Mirei
Occupation: Knight Dainoji
Profession Ore, a brave man, Ballantyne
Luca is usually there to greet me with a big smile and say good morning, but I can't help it. I don't usually eat because I still have a lot of alcohol from the night before, but the rest of the team are having a good breakfast. As I eat, I check today's schedule.
Luca is gone. There's not much to do before we go to King's Landing. I'm going to get some sleep and..."
Wait. This morning I saw that there were extra orders.
Angelica interrupts and reports.
The most important thing is that you get a good start in the game. I heard.
'Ehhhhh, seriously...'
Mirei booms while picking at her vegetable salad.
'It hurts to fail, and my nails and clothes get torn to shreds~~~.
Ha ha ha. The most important thing is that you can see the difference between the two.
Look at Mirei with a smug look on your face.
Haa. Why do I have to be protected by you?
