370 Outside, Mr. Druid's decision.

"Don't drink too much, Mr. Druid."

I don't mean to, but I have a few priors.

"Be careful"

"No more. Be careful not to drink too much Lord Foronda,"

"I get it. It's okay."

Ivy smiles and answers Foronda Lords a little frowning.

Really, Ivy, don't be scared.

'Cause I've never had too much to drink and expose myself to ugliness.'

Lord Foronda seems happy with Ivy's attitude.

"That means you've had a lot of experience, right? No, you can't."

"Haha, okay. I'll make sure you don't drink too much."

Ivy leaves the room looking worried.

"Well, I've been buying the best liquor in this village. You can still drink, can't you?

"Yes."

Still, why did the aristocrats and I decide to drink?

Is there something we can talk about?

"Ivy is adorable. I only have a son, so the girl's reaction is fresh."

With that said, Lord Foronda had a son.

Was that two of us?

Is that it?

Were there any rumors that the princess was forcing me to marry her?

"Hmm? What's up?

"No, it smells good."

Enjoy the incense of liquor poured into the glass.

That's definitely expensive. This booze.

Because of this, and let's have some fun.

"I need to talk to you for a second."

Is it still true?

"Yes. What is it?

"No, you don't have to. It's about Ivy's birth village, you know?

"Yes, the village chief and the villagers have fallen into slavery"

"Right. And Ivy?"

Lord Foronda stirs up a glass of liquor at once.

The expression is almost faceless.

"I know."

"Was she okay?

"I was a little shocked, but I'm probably fine..."

No, are you sure you're okay?

Ivy was flat when she heard that rumor.

And things were all wrong that day.

I was back to my usual Ivy the next day, so I thought I'd be fine.

You sure about that?

"Excuse me. I don't know"

"Right."

Stir the liquor in the glass.

My throat gets hot so I can burn it.

"The mayor of the village who tormented her and her parents will never be freed from slavery alive. Well, as late as the village chief died, he said he was worn out."

Worn out?

The villagers did this to you?

Well, you deserve it.

"Really?"

Still, how do you know so much about it?

You checked it out?

As I lean my neck, Lord Foronda, with a slight gaze, laughs out loud.

"Worrying self-proclaimed brothers are in Otrewa town. You know who that is?

"Ah, yes."

Mr. Ratlua or Mr. Sifal.

"They were looking into it"

I see.

"Fluffing" from them was a brother's or father's point of view.

Lord Foronda, who sometimes arrives, is one of them.

"Ivy's brother fell into slavery for a long time. My sister..."

What the fuck?

You got something for my sister?

"Admittedly, I've uncovered a crime, and I've had my sentence commuted to eight years of slavery. Depending on your attitude, you'll be shorter."

Indeed, that village heard that a villager who opposed the village chief had been killed.

With a commutation in eight years, does that mean he wasn't involved in the killing?

"Really?"

"Now she is deposited with Captain Oguto of the village of Latme"

"What? Captain Ogt?

He is Ivy's guarantor.

How could he?

"She gave Captain Ogt evidence of the village's crimes. He took it on because he had an edge in that relationship."

Evidence of a crime. Ivy's sister?

"Was it? Are you with him?

"I work for the vigilante. I wanted to talk to Ivy about this. Captain Ogt said he doesn't know what Ivy's doing right now, so we'll leave it to him."

"Are you in touch with Captain Ogt?

"No, I went to see him. I wanted to see Ivy's sister. It was from a distance, but it didn't look very similar. Captain Ogt said they were alike."

To see you?

Somehow, you're a man of action.

But why do you care so much about Ivy?

"Hmm? Strange? That I move."

"Yeah, a little."

"She is the benefactor of my life. If she hadn't noticed Faltria's evil, I would have been killed. I've asked my enemies for help. I learned later that my sons were being targeted, too. So she's a benefactor to our family."

"Was it? I didn't know."

So does it work for Ivy so far?

"I'm telling my boys about Ivy, too. I want you to meet me someday."

It's about Ivy, I'm sure the folks around Lord Foronda will like it too.

"So let's get back to it, what do you think? Should we talk about this?

"Right. Is your sister saying something?

If you brightened up the crime, you must be quite a decent person.

If Ivy wants to see you, she'll have to think about seeing you soon.

But I honestly don't want you to see Ivy if there's any chance he might hurt her.

"When I started working for Captain Ogt, he asked me something. He did. But he's working hard on the job he's been given without asking."

Don't you have the nerve to ask?

Or do you want to forget about Ivy?

"Once a month, they're offering flowers where Ivy's supposed to be dead."

"Really...... hmm? Dead?

"That? Didn't you know? Captain Ogt decided to die thinking about Ivy having a chase."

".................. ha"

Was that what happened?

"Haha, you're surprised. The first time I heard about it, I was flattered."

I don't think it's funny.

"Captain Ogt said," It's a life-saving procedure. "

I guess it's a good way to make Ivy's journey a little safer.

But you didn't often disagree with the head of the vigilante.

"Back to my sister, she says you can decide she's reflecting. However, she's not going to talk to me unless she has Ivy's permission. Well, of course."

"Right."

With that said, the way Lord Foronda talks is shattered.

Are you drunk?

Looking on the desk, two bottles of liquor are empty and the third is empty.

... when.

"So, what do you think of Druid?

"It's a story that could be a burden, so it's hard"

"That's right. The Boroldas also said they didn't know what to do. It's just that there might be rumors about my sister."

Sure, it's pretty rare for a criminal slave to be deposited with a vigilante, so it could be a rumor.

I'm pretty sure you'd rather talk about it than find out about the rumors.

Besides, it could be just the right cut.

I wanted to suggest that story to Ivy.

It would be pretty hard if they refused... that's Ivy's decision too.

Am I ready to talk too?

"Druid? What's up?

"I'll talk to you from me. I wanted to talk to Ivy, too."

"... what are we talking about?

When you look at Lord Foronda, it fits with a serious gaze.

Maybe they're feeling what I'm going to say.

"I'm going to suggest Ivy not to be a real parent or child"

"Phew..."

Will they disagree?

But this is something I've been thinking about.

I was lost because I couldn't protect Ivy with one arm, but I realized it was rude for Ivy to think that.

"Good. We wanted it."

"What?"

Lord Foronda's gaze becomes fluffy and gentle.

"I was able to get some idea of who you are in" Fluffy. "I also know that the two of them have a very good bond in" Fluffy "where Ivy gives it to me. That's why we were talking about the two of us being parents and kids. I just didn't say it because it's not a matter of third parties clapping their mouths. I've been reading Rutlua, Sifal, and Nuga from two people."

Yakiki

"Ah. Like parents and kids we believe in each other, why not be real"

Was it?

With that said, Mr. Sifal had asked me if I had any reports, but did you mean that?
