“How about doing this?”

From noble mtl dot com.

“It’s ambiguous. Wouldn’t that just make you angry?”

The three returned to their original room and put their heads together about what to do, but couldn’t come up with a reasonable answer.

In the end, the conclusion that came out was a kind of makeshift plan to stay and watch for a while.

The most important thing to keep in mind is not to go against the planting of Taeho, the owner of this place, as much as possible.

“Your status as a patient might be helpful.”

“…Actually, it’s not that painful.”

Anyway, Sean was injured on the way up, and it was true that it hindered his movement. So the excuse to stay here until his leg healed was quite plausible.

“By the way, does Tae Ho sleep here too?”

“This is the guest room. Although it is small, it is fortunate that it is divided.”

“Aha.”

Shooting his curiosity, Shaun sneakily looked around the room. It’s hard to say that it’s spacious even with empty words, but the fact that there is a guest room itself is really fortunate for them.

“Shaun. Lie down in bed and get some rest.”

“It’s okay. Okay.”

Ignoring Levy’s suggestion, Shawn climbed onto the bed and raised his upper body.

“Ah, come to think of it, I must have seen a wolf at the end.”

“Wolves…”

At Elsa’s reaction, Sean made a questionable expression. Levi saw him.

“We didn’t see anything.”

“····What? Didn’t you see?”

“When I found you after you collapsed, there was only Cyclops’ corpse.”

“Instead, I guessed that there was something by looking at the traces around and the wounds on the monsters.”

In other words, Levi and Elsa did not see the huge white wolf.

What was the wolf that vanished after slaying Cyclops in an instant before they even arrived?

“Anyway, don’t overcomplicate things and take a break.”

“I’m fine?”

“There is no need to overdo it. Do you know how you were when I first saw you?”

How are you? It was such an unexpected question that Sean couldn’t even answer right away.

Elsa didn’t even wait for his words.

“Levy shed tears when he saw you. How much blood was splattered everywhere.”

“・・・・Yes?”

“At first, I thought I would never be able to use my left leg. But luckily it got better.”

You mean the condition was that serious?

But Shawn wasn’t aware that he was that sick. He was actually able to move on his own, albeit with a limp.

Levi spoke in a distinctly subdued tone, as if the emotions at that time had risen.

“Shaun. It’s been four days since Sean passed out.”

“····Time has passed like that? Are you kidding?”

“Why would Levy joke with you like that? Do you know how much I struggled to climb to the top carrying you on my back?”

Saying that, Sean had no choice but to admit it.

He knew that he was facing a very dangerous situation.

Shaun folded and opened his hands, deep in thought. Seeing that, Elsa whispered softly to Levi.

“I think it would be nice to have some alone time for now. Let’s go to my room.”

“Yes… Sean. We’ll be resting for a while in the room over there!”

Sean fell into a deep trance to the point where he didn’t even answer Levy’s call.

Even though four long days had already passed, to Sean it felt as short as it had happened just a moment ago.

Sean slowly recalled the memories and sensations of that time.

There is only one reason why my leg was completely damaged.

This is because he instantly surpassed his limits in response to Sean’s earnest will.

Shaun closed his eyes and focused to sharpen the lingering senses.

He was similar to the last time he accepted the power of God in Ellie Orden. A memory that raises his level even more just by the fact that he experienced it.

But Shaun soon realized that there was something far more important than that leap.

The moment when the rock splits in two.

Sean stood still for a while, then slowly opened his eyes.

Then he carefully picked up the sword lying beside him.

Now I look at it without hesitation even calling it a sword.

As for the blade, only the base of the sword was sadly attached, and in fact, only the hilt was left.

Sean grabs his sack and slows down.

From left to right. He cut through the air horizontally.

I remember the day I stabbed a meteorite through. Shawn at that moment was stronger than ever.

And he recalls the moment he cut the flying rock. Sean at that time was obviously weaker than Sean who had penetrated the meteorite.

But he was better than he was back then.

A higher level.

The greatest sword in Sean’s world is by far Wilhelm. The thrill that ran through his body the moment he saw the power of the old man still vividly remained and was imprinted.

The moment he cut the rock. If the dangerously rattling blade really had power.

If it’s not just an illusion, but what you actually did is correct.

So, Sean saw the extreme dirt that Wilhelm showed.

Wilhelm’s words come to mind.

“Shaun. This is the way you must go.”

Sean was at a loss.

He understood that he was still far away.

And there was laughter.

Because he realized he could become much stronger.

“Of course I need to talk to Taeho to get information.”

“So you’re saying we want to have dinner together?”

At Sean’s question, Elsa nodded her head. She made sure she had no contact and there was no way she would find out any information about him. There was no one else in this forge.

But for some reason Sean was a bit uneasy about the old man. It doesn’t mean he’s a bad person or anything, but it’s because he can’t shake the feeling that he’s a group figure that doesn’t fit Young himself.

“Would he allow it?”

“He thinks he has a good chance. That’s because we have a secret weapon!”

Sean and Levy were shocked by Elsa’s confident assertion.

Maybe they were hiding a secret weapon they didn’t know about!

As expected, he was an exhibitionist adventurer with many secrets. And Sean and Levy came to expect.

I wonder what the secret weapon she prepared will be.

“I don’t think it will work.”

“Have confidence. I vouch for it.”

However, the exhibitionist’s guarantee did not reassure me at all.

“The elderly.”

“I must have told you not to disturb me.”

He was still engrossed in his work and did not raise his head once.

“Aren’t you hungry? We have prepared dinner for you.”

“····Hooh. I’ll tell you in advance, because I’m very picky.”

“You can look forward to it.”

Taeho stopped his hand for a moment and stood still, then raised his body and said.

“Good. Do not decline.”

Elsa nodded his head with a proud expression when everything went according to plan.

Only Sean, who was watching the scene from behind, sighed heavily and scratched his head.

The secret weapon was simple.

First of all, fresh and good food ingredients that Levy airlifted and maintained magically.

And the excellent cooking skills that Elsa highly praised.

Of course, it wasn’t Levy who received the praise.

“If your plan fails, don’t leave it to me.”

“Don’t worry. Didn’t I say that I would guarantee the completion of the plan?”

Emphasized, but the exhibitionist adventurer’s endorsement doesn’t help much.

Anyway, it was Sean who was in charge of this evening.

Elsa, who had a phobia of Levy’s cooking, begged her Sean on her knees from that day on, and after eating Sean’s food, she wept.

Elsa is said to have raised her thumb to the bewildered Sean and said she said,

“····Mimi!”

Levy stayed next to Sean and chatted.

“What are you going to cook today?”

“I’m just going to make it simple and centered on pork.”

“Meat! I like meat! hehehe.”

Levi, who was drooling as if he had already fallen in love with the idea of eating meat, immediately asked Sean.

“Can I help you?”

“Um… No. Just waiting.”

Sean likes Levi’s cooking, but most people, including Elsa, don’t seem to like it very much.

Because before, Levi secretly served food to the coachman, and he vomited it all up.

On the other hand, Sean rated his dish as acceptable, but to others, it tasted like a top-notch dish. It’s ironic indeed.

After a while, Shawn was able to prepare dinner.

Taeho looked at the dishes slowly and gave a short comment.

“That’s pretty fast.”

“I had all the ingredients ready.”

“Huh. Even so, if it doesn’t taste good, it’s just garbage.”

The fact that they were quite brusque seemed to make them feel that they were not very welcome.

Soon, the four of them sat around a small table and started eating.

“Mimi!”

“Delicious! hehehehe!”

The reactions of the two women were consistent. Sean looked into Taeho’s eyes.

He took a bite, savored the taste, then opened his mouth and said:

“····Not bad.”

After the old man spat out those words, he focused on his meal in silence. Knowing that the calm reaction was true recognition, Sean relieved his inner worries.

“We will continue to prepare meals for you during our stay.”

“Why do I have to eat with you guys?”

“This is because there are too many ingredients, so please join us.”

“····Hung. Well, if you’re going to keep getting stuck in my forge, you’ll have to do that.”

After successfully setting up a table for periodic conversation, Elsa winked at Sean.

She thought that the exhibitionist adventurer’s guarantee was useless, but why did she think that it might be useful unexpectedly?

As he continued his meal, Shawn asked a sneaky question with the utmost caution.

“Is it okay if I ask why you are not accepting requests?”

“What are you going to do with that? And just because I accept a request, do you think I’ll make your equipment? Do you have to do that just because you’re pretty?”

Apart from being satisfied with the meal, Taeho’s stubbornness was still stubborn.

From noble mtl dot com.

“To be honest, I don’t know anything about you guys. You there.”

The old man suddenly pointed at Shawn.

“Uh, me?”

“Yes. Stupid guy Who the hell are you?”

“What is it…? Hmm····. This is Shawn.”

“I’m so frustrated I’m going crazy. When did I ask your name? Who are you other than your name!”

Who are you? Sean was at a loss as to what to answer to such an ambiguous question.

When Sean didn’t answer easily, the old man let out a deep sigh and lamented.

“A guy who can’t speak properly is asking me for equipment… Then I’ll ask you another question that’s easier for you to understand. Whose son are you?”

“····My parents don’t know. He died right after giving birth to me.”

“Hmm. Then who raised you?”

“I grew up with my grandmother. Although now her grandmother has passed away as well.”

Taeho, who was listening to Sean with his arms folded, immediately asked a question.

“What is the grandmother’s name?”

“Grandma…? It’s Yennefer. That’s why she called her Grandma Yan.”

“… Yennefer!?”

Hearing her name, Taeho raised his eyes wide and repeated the name.

The sudden response startled Sean, then he asked a question.

“Do you know each other?”

“No. It’s a name I’ve never heard before.”

In that moment, Sean realized that the old man in front of him was quite an eccentric.

He obviously put on a performance that wasn’t meant to make fun of himself. Thinking that way made him feel pretty bad, but he couldn’t complain.

Soon the old man looked away and said, keeping his arms folded.

“You know anyway, so let’s move on…. You this time.”

“Me?”

The target of the old man this time was Levi.

“Yes. Who is your father?”

“My father is Paul!”

“····Paul?”

Is it a start again? Sean couldn’t understand why Taeho asked such a question.

“Do you know my father?”

“Yes. He was an adventurer who came looking for me long ago.”
