157. Return of first love (6)
Lee Jun-woo enjoying a date with Aina at a dessert cafe.
He sat up from her seat, taking her sweetened child, and her spirited child.
And, before leaving the store, I looked at the chaotic place.
“… Calculate.”
“Yes, I can help you with the calculation!”
Lee Jun-woo handed the gold coin to the employee and said.
“… Calculate that table.”
“Yeah, but this is too much, is it okay… ?”
“It’s okay, give the rest to the store manager.”
I’m sorry for causing such a nuisance.
Lee Jun-woo handed over to the employee a much larger amount than the amount calculated.
Aina, who had been waiting for me to come out of the store first, smiled at Lee Jun-woo.
“Pu-Hup, they must think they never got caught by us, right? Aren’t they so cute?”
“It’s more annoying than cute. Those guys cost me a lot of money.”
My head hurts.
Lee Jun-woo was dizzy at the unexpected expenses.
He expected a party of warriors to follow him.
I never expected that he would follow me to the store, order countless expensive desserts, and cause such a nuisance.
Lee Jun-woo muttered in a low voice.
“… Did I just train too much? Should I have taken a lot of stores like this?”
“I don’t know about that. But it was a bit serious. They are so clumsy.”
There’s nothing clumsy about combat.
There seemed to be a lot of problems about living with people.
But, Aina shouldn’t talk like that.
“You’re clumsy too, Aina.”
“What do you mean, disciple? Master doesn’t have any clumsiness at all?”
“You made me do everything from long ago. Dealing with people is difficult.”
“Me, I am researching! I can’t help it because I’m studying magic!”
Aina’s face suddenly turns red.
She also had a lot of problems with her relationships, similar to her warrior party.
“You said you were worried because you didn’t know how to talk kindly to strangers.”
“When will I!! You, are you slandering Master right now?! This, this bastard!”
Aina told him not to say more, and she jumped and tried to cover his mouth.
However, Lee Jun-woo, who grew up differently from the past and became good at avoiding, did not win easily.
A warrior party where you can watch these two cute fights through the window at a dessert cafe.
They each started to express their feelings.
Clang-!!
“Oh, you dropped the parfait! Oh man, what are you doing! You have to dodge and attack right away like you did to me!! What are you doing!!”
Luna raised her eyes to her window and complained.
And then, Hare, who was sitting in front of her, had already put her head on her lap.
“… I hate to see it. Why are you showing that woman like that? Me, I tried so hard to see that kind of side… Why is that woman able to see the happy face of the old man so easily… ?”
I thought you were going to make the old man like that and leave for another place.
Hare crouched down and buried her head in her lap.
I wanted to see the old man’s face, but I couldn’t see her because her heart hurt.
Saten looked at Hare like that and put on a pitiful expression.
“Be patient. You should be able to wait. That woman is over soon.”
“Huh? What are you talking about? Why is it over?”
“It’s okay even if you don’t know, Estiya. Please stay still and eat more parfaits.”
“I hate it! I have no appetite!”
Estiya loses her appetite when she sees the old man.
Seeing her already putting the spoon on the table, the waiter at the dessert cafe let out a sigh of relief.
“… De, is it finally over? Will you stop eating now?”
A warrior party ate while parfait bowls filled the desk.
Although I got paid more.
The already exhausted employee wanted a break.
‘… Please, leave quickly.’
I wonder if such an employee’s prayer reached the hero’s party.
The party of warriors, who had been depressed for a while, got up from their seats and ran to the entrance.
“This is not the time to be like this! Uncle is leaving! Hurry up!”
“Walk slowly, Luna. It’s noisy.”
“Go with me! I’m slow!”
Hodadak-
A party of warriors who came like the wind and disappeared leaving behind a storm.
From noble mtl dot com
Of course, they quickly left the dessert cafe without paying.
The employee who was left muttered to himself.
“Did he know that they wouldn’t pay… ?”
Replacement.
What kind of people are those who are on the blacklist this time?
An employee looking at a table full of parfait bowls.
He never thought they would be a party of warriors who would save the world.

Aina doesn’t like walking very much. She
She is also not very physically fit, and at that time she preferred to devote herself to magic research.
However, waking up from the sealing stone was a little different.
“This park isn’t bad. Good for walking at night.”
“… Aren’t you cold?”
“It’s okay. Not cold Don’t worry about me as a disciple.”
Are you saying that a famous park in the capital is not bad?
Rose Island is a park where the admission fee is quite expensive and customers are divided according to social status.
Same-day reservations are said to be a no-choice place, but Aina and I were currently walking in this park together.
‘Honor rather than money… ‘
There are people who have more money than me.
There is no one with a higher level of adventurer than me.
Aina and I were lucky enough to walk together on Rose Island because we had a business card that read “Ruby,” An adventurer grade.
“It is also something I could not have imagined at the time.”
“What? What can you not imagine?”
“Walking here with you. I honestly can’t believe it.”
The scent of flowers rising from the roses in the park.
A cool wind blows.
Lights as bright as day at night.
I couldn’t believe I was in a space like this with Aina.
“Honestly, I never thought you would be alive.”
“Ha, what did you think of me as? Are you a bit disappointed?”
“I didn’t know you would leave a chance.”
Just before being captured by the Demon King.
Use non-attribute magic to pay the price and seal yourself.
It’s not easy to immediately bring that thought to the situation.
That’s why I didn’t leave even 1% chance that Aina would be alive.
“That’s why I think it feels like a miracle.”
“… What is it, why are you cringing? Do you just walk in the park?”
Aina answered in a sharp tone.
Then, he turned her gaze and pointed her finger towards it.
“Look over there, Junwoo! Lots of red roses!”
Wadada-
I ran hastily toward her rose.
‘… Somehow, it feels like he’s been avoiding conversation since last time.’
Rather than avoiding conversation…
You seem to be avoiding certain conversation topics.
It must be just my delusion, right?
“Walk slowly, Aina. If you run like that, you get hurt.”
I ran after Aina.
Her speed was slow, but she was already one with her rose.
“Junwoo. Where am I?”
“… Why do you say the obvious You trample the roses and stand in the park.”
“Ha, I taught you wrong. You have no emotions at all.”
“… “
What kind of emotion is that?
I couldn’t understand Aina, who has a unique sensibility.
And there was one more incomprehensible fact.
“But, Junwoo. Are you feeling it too?”
“It’s strange if you can’t feel it.”
“That’s why it’s strange. You said that this is not a place that anyone can easily come to. However… “
Aina slurred her words and slightly raised her pupils to the side.
Maybe Hare hid her presence well, but she wasn’t detected.
From the direction of Aina’s line of sight, the presence of the other three was strongly felt.
“How did they get here?”
“… That’s right. I don’t quite understand that either.”
The more famous you are, the more likely you are to be targeted for bad purposes.
So, Rose Island seduced nobles by strengthening her crime prevention and security.
For that reason, it was once called a spot for adultery.
Anyway.
‘How far do those guys intend to follow?’
I chose this place as part of it to remove it.
I chose this place to have a serious conversation with Aina.
Am I being interrupted like this again?
I looked at Aina and asked.
“Aina. What do you want to do?”
“Me? I am… The two of us are good, but I think it would be more fun if we had a warrior party.”
Aina took a step back from her and replied.
It wasn’t a convincing answer, but it felt like it was overblown.
This outing wanted to be tailored to Aina, so she decided to call them countless times.
“I’ve been following you for 5 hours, so I guess I should look after you.”
These fools.
Brush-Brush-
A rose bush that moves unnaturally even when there is no wind.
I walked slowly towards the rose bush.
The closer we got, the louder the children’s whispers grew.
“Ah, the old man is coming! Who made a loud noise! Estiya, are you!?”
“It’s not me! I stayed still!”
“… It’s noisy, could you please shut your mouth?”
“What are you all doing here?”
“Uh, aaagh-!!”
Luna fell backwards with a loud noise.
In front of such Luna were Saten and Estiya with puzzled expressions.
I looked down at them and asked seriously.
“It’s late, but he doesn’t go home. What are you doing here?”
“… “
A party of unanswered warriors.
Three seconds.
2 Seconds.
1 Second.
The moment when a total of 3 seconds passed.
Falling backwards, Luna made a calyx with her hands.
“W-Where are we?”
“Of course it is right in front of me.”
“… “
Of course, that method didn’t work for me.
‘… Aina did she wish she would call herself a rose.’
And, watching the hero’s party, I could understand what Aina wanted.
