Even if you succeed in jobless reincarnation and time magic, you must live life to the fullest.

"And so, he wandered the world his whole life, living the life of an adventurer."

"And then be with Rudius forever."

"I always felt that this suited me better."

"Hey, Rudeus?"

"Shall we run away together?"

"Like Uncle Paul and Aunt Janice, they'll never... come back."

Alice looked at her hometown, which was so close at hand.

That's what they said.

I silently walked forward and hugged her.

I casually gave her a rub.

"Rudius, you're such a pervert."

Alice said, pursing her lips.

"Yes, that's why I like Alice a lot too."

"Rudy..."

"Don't worry, Alice, I understand what you mean."

"What should I do?"

Alice's tears flowed down her cheeks without her realizing it.

Yale yale...

"Alice, leave everything to me."

I smiled as I looked at Alice.

……

……

This long journey has finally come to an end.

It spans across the entire Demon Continent, the Milis Continent, and most of the Central Continent.

We have finally arrived in the territory of Fituia.

Alice and I entered the refugee camp.

In terms of size, a refugee camp is equivalent to a village.

The entire refugee camp lacked vitality, and a quiet atmosphere permeated the air.

It's small in scale and has few people.

Everywhere there were wooden houses that looked like they had been hastily built, and although people could be heard moving inside, the atmosphere was deathly still.

In the center of the refugee camp.

There are places similar to adventurers' guilds.

Upon approaching, one would find that the entrance was marked "Refugee Camp Headquarters".

"let's go."

I said.

"Ah."

Alice nodded gently, gripped my hand tightly, and walked forward.

We passed a notice board with a list of missing persons.

At the very top of the notice board, there was a sentence written on it.

"In the name of James Boreas Grellat, Lord of the territory of Fituia, we are seeking information on the missing and the dead."

It's not Sholos.

I had expected this.

If the Great Transfer occurs, Sholos will undoubtedly die.

But I could have stopped the Great Transfer.

In other words.

It wouldn't be an exaggeration to say that I killed Sauros.

Alice seemed to have noticed this as well.

But she said nothing.

We walked straight ahead, deeper into the building.

After we reported our identities to the counter staff, the person in charge immediately ran inside.

soon.

Two familiar figures appeared before us.

The man walking in front was dressed in standard aristocratic attire, his half-closed eyes looking as if he were dozing off.

The woman walking behind had chocolate-colored skin and fluffy ears.

"Father! Gilead!"

Alice's tears welled up instantly.

She rushed forward and hugged Philip and Gilead tightly.

"It's so good to be back alive."

Philip said with a smile.

That being said.

I couldn't sense much joy in his tone.

On the contrary, Gilead smiled from the bottom of his heart.

“Alice…no, Lady Alice, it’s so good that you’re safe and sound…”

"Oh, please, just call me Alice!"

Alice was more excited than ever before.

Although I just said I didn't want to come back.

But when he actually met Philip and Girenouil, he was as happy as a child.

Yes, it's just similar.

Just today.

Alice's adventurer card suddenly showed her age as 15.

She's an adult now.

93. Decision

The joy of the reunion quickly faded.

soon.

We are forced to face reality.

"Alice's mother, my wife Hilda, has passed away."

Philip said in a flat tone.

I was speechless.

Yeah……

It seems that Gilead has already rushed there as quickly as possible.

But they only managed to save Philip...

“In addition, my father, Lord Sauros, has also passed away.”

Philip continued.

Alice gripped my hand tightly.

A sharp pain swept over me, but I didn't make a sound.

At least.

Right now.

Let Alice rely on me.

"No... there must be a mistake?"

Alice said through gritted teeth.

“Hilda and I were transferred to the Warring States together. During the escape, Hilda was killed due to exhaustion.”

Philip said calmly.

"After that, Girenu came and rescued me from the soldiers."

Kyrie Irvine turned to look at me.

I sighed silently.

All I can say is: I have done my best.

I can't do anything else besides that.

"As for Father... he was forced to take responsibility for the transfer of the Fituia territory and was executed."
