One night later, after saying their goodbyes, the left from the Town. They continued on their way to the Town by horse-drawn carriage.
The journey was Smooth, and after returning to the Town in three days as planned, Alvin and the others were able to report back to the Adventurer’s Guild and return to the party house as soon as possible.
”I’m home!”
”Welcome back, everyone!”
Akane, dressed in a maid’s uniform, greeted Alvin and the others when they got home. She was carrying a cloth and a bucket of water, so it was easy to see that she was cleaning the house.
”It sounds like you’ve had a rough day...”
”It’s true. I never thought we’d get into that kind of trouble”
Renka had written to Akane and told her that things had changed from the original plan. She also wrote to Akane on the day Alvin was appointed as an honorary knight and told her that they would not be going to the upper-level dungeon but would be returning once. So, Akane also knows what Alvin and the others went through in Este.
Akane smiled bitterly at Renka’s disappointed expression and spoke as if she had an idea.
”That’s right. I’m sure you’re all thirsty after just getting back. I’ll get you something to drink”
”Thank you, Akane-chan”
”Since we’re all standing around, why don’t we continue our conversation in the dining room?”
Milis, who thanked Akane for her concern, walked off with Alvin, followed by Shinji and Renka.

”Phew... our house is the best after all......”
”Geez, Al-kun...”
After drinking a cup of tea made by Akane, Alvin slouched down on the table. Milis gazed at Alvin’s distracted expression with a smile on her face.
As an adventurer, Alvin is the leader of the group, and he is always on his toes. He could rest at the inn at night, but he realized once again that the best place to rest and relax was at the party house.
”Alvin, there’s a letter for you. He says to give it to you as soon as you get back”
”Hmm? A letter....”
”That coat of arms belongs to the Beltz family, doesn’t it?”
Alvin tilted his head, and Milis and Renka had no reason to disagree with him. This means that the offer from the Beltz family is very useful.
”Hmm... So, I’ll ask them?”
”That would be a good idea. To be honest, it would be a huge hassle for us to do the research ourselves”
The number of people who knew the etiquette of the castle was limited.
Shinji thought it would be better to ask the Beltz family, with whom they already had a relationship, as there was a possibility that the knowledgeable person they hired might be connected to some noble family.
”If it’s the Beltz Family, Alvin should be careful”
”Shinji...”
Shinji laughed at Alvin, who couldn’t help but stare at him.
”I just thought it would be better to stick with Beltz family now instead of getting involved with other nobles”
”That’s fine, but is it okay... Mill?”
Alvin looks at Milis, who smiles and nods at his question.
”Yes. This is also necessary. We have to make sure that Al-kun is ready for the ceremony”
”Thank you....”
If Milis was okay with it, there was no reason for Renka to object. It is Alvin that Christina is in love with, and Renka thinks that the feelings of Milis, his girlfriend, are the most important thing.
”Then, I’ll give them an answer”
”Understood”
Each of them agreed with Alvin’s words.
In this way, the began to move toward the ceremony for the appointment of honorary knights.
