... live free!

After the Adventurer's Guild, I thought about what to do with Rumia and the others as I headed to the inn.

"For now, what should I do after living in an inn for a while..."

I don't have any problem paying for Rumia's lodging, but don't they care? I am a little worried about it.

"... let's tell Lana about the orphanage and let her know that she will be taking care of you for a while."

I was walking towards the inn thinking that.

When I arrived at the inn, I went to the cafeteria where Lana would be. When I arrived at the cafeteria, it seemed that it was past noon and that the customers were sporadic. Then Lana-san came out from the back.

"Oh, Lena. I thought I ate lunch, but what happened?"

"Well, that's how it is." I have something I want to ask Lana-san, so can I talk to you about it after a while? "

All right, Lena, just sit back and wait.

I was cleaning up the dishes left on the desk.

After a while, the customer was gone and Lana came back with a drink.

Here you go.

Thank you very much.

You said that. Lana looked at me as she drank and took a breath as I did.

So, what does Lena want to tell me?

It's about Rumia and the others.

"It's about the girls..."

“Yes, I went to the orphanage just now to see how things were going, and people I didn't know were checking things out, and I asked them what they were doing, and they said they were coming to see me because I was going to rebuild the building.”

Is that so?

"Yes, so what do we do about them..." I think I'll be staying here for a while. ”

I don't think you need to worry about it.

"... what do you mean?"

“Do you know that they're helping you with the store?”

“Yes, I heard that when I was having lunch.”

I think it's not good for Lena to continue to take care of you, so you said you wanted me to help you.

Huh?

When I asked you earlier, you said you were free, so you asked Lana to help you, but you didn't mind me?

"Isn't there a part of us that wants to do something with our own power?" "Lara-chan and Lili-chan are small, so I'll take care of the simple cleaning, but Rumia is amazing..." Even my daughter can't do a lot of things over there. "

Ahh, she might be able to do a lot of things

Honestly, I feel stronger than Yua.

"But I'm worried it won't be impossible..."

"Leave it to me." There is nothing to be troubled by their continued stay. Everyone is serious, so if you grow up, you might be able to hire someone to live in. "

Is that so?

"Yeah, so if they seem to care a lot, you can work a little as a help." It may be difficult to pay for an inn, but I can give you a little pocket money for lunch. "

I was surprised that Lana was so fond of them, but I thanked Lana that I felt that their concerns could be largely resolved.

Thank you very much.

"You don't have to worry about it." Children who work hard over there. It's unusual around here. In the meantime, I hope you'll finish talking to them. "

Yes!

I thanked Lana again and went back to the room where Yua and the others were waiting.
