Chapter 15: The Heroes hear Rumours about him
“Aw, my shoulders are so stiff~”
The captain of the second division of the army, Vale Kimble, stood in front of them while watching these four.
The quest had been to hunt Stinger Bats in the ≪Droke Cave≫. It was put up because their population was too big and they lately started to attack the town.
However, the four of them had a high level and a superb teamwork, so they managed to hunt over a hundred Stinger Bats. That should take care of the quest, so they returned to the castle.
When Takashi said that, everyone nodded in response.
Suzumiya Chika wiped her sweat with a towel.
They confirmed it like Vale told them.

Taishi wasn’t satisfied with his own title, because he didn’t have a single memory of ever creating a harem.
“Eh? Ah, n- nothing! Ahaha!”
“Weirdo. Anyway, we got rather strong.”
“Yep, Shuricchi is right. We have to continue like this~”
Vale also brightened up his expression happily.
“Geez, Taishi, you’re so sloppy.”
“Let me for today~ Ah, reminds me, Vale, did anything strange happen lately?”
Vale put his hand against his chin and looked musing.
“I think ‘Ames’ is a village west of here?”
“Yes.”
“Yes, the ‘Harios Brothers’. They are notorious adventurer that murdered and thieved. Though they were stripped off their adventurer title when their crimes became known. So it is more correct to call them former adventurer.”
“Indeed and the testimony of the villagers is rather garbled.”
Everyone, not just Shinobu, curiously paid attention to Vale.
“A red robe? A hero? What the?”
“Black hair… couldn‘t be?”
“Black hair and self-important?”
“Nah… not him. He said himself that he’s just an average person after all.”
“Haha, that’s going too far, Chika.”
No one knew the answer to that. Vale shook his head too.
Chika declared encouraging to everyone. Everyone responded with a nod.
“Hey, what’s the meaning of this?”
Hiiro frowned sullen, whereas Arnold next to him twitched his cheek muscles.
“M- Maybe a festival?”
“Wait, isn’t today the first day of ‘Urui’?”
By the way, ‘Urui’ referred to the month name.
February: Nunui
April: Guviris
June: Norui
August: Urui
October: Nalbress
December Grisron
“What‘s so special about today?”
“≪Raer Festival≫?”
Spring: Esuil
Autumn: Jarvas
“It’s ‘Raer’ right now. To blow off this heat, they’re holding stuff like this here and there.”
His discomfort only grew from realizing that. It was already hot to begin with, there was this obnoxious guy next to him and this crowd on top of that only added oil to the fire. It was really irritating.
“Me? Nah. I only thought you were annoying, old man.”
“That’s what’s so annoying about you.”
He clenched his trembling fist. At that time, Arnold’s vision fell onto Muir. Her face was flushed and she watched at the bustling people.
“What’s that out of the blue? You finally lost it?”
Muir blinked her eyes in puzzlement too.
On these words, Muir’s expression lit up with energy. She seemed rather delighted. Actually, she wanted to go around the festival, but was fretting as she couldn’t say it out loud.
“Wait.”
“Let go.”
“Not interested.”
“……What do you mean?”
“Listen, the ≪Raer Festival≫ here in ‘Surge’ is quite big.”
“There are tons of shops~ Moreover, there’s a super popular stall here.”
“To add to that, they’re holding a competition to see which is the most popular stall in ‘Surge’. A food stall wins every year… but see what I’m getting at?”
“I think you would be quite pleased.”
Arnold was well versed. Seemingly it wasn’t his first time at the festival in “Surge”. It didn’t seem like he was lying either, nor had he any reason to. Then came the bait in form of good food.
“H- Hey.”
“Lead the way already. What if the good stuff sells out, pervert?”
He shouted angry, but his mouth formed a small smile. Muir was thrilled from anticipation too. The three of them settled on enjoying the festival for a while.
