“I’ve heard that’s true… but I’ve never seen you do this before.”

"After all, I've now returned to the great forest."

Kyrie Irvine casually tossed the wild boar to the ground, leaned against it, and started chatting with me.

Perhaps it was because life in the Golden Knights was too boring, or perhaps it was because he was getting old and wanted to travel around while he was still able to walk.

Not long ago, Gilead resigned from his job with the Golden Knights and returned to the Great Forest.

Actually, she hadn't originally planned to stay in the great forest for long; she just wanted to go back and take a look after a long time... After all, if she didn't go back this time, she would never have a reason to go back again.

however.

When Gilead returned, it was the rainy season in the great forest.

Then, quite coincidentally, due to Linia's various mistakes, this year's rainy season disaster was particularly severe, and the village was severely short of manpower.

Gilead couldn't let it go unchecked.

So she chose to stay and began working tirelessly for the village.

"I just wanted to lend a hand."

Kyrie Irvine wagged its tail and said with a wry smile, "As a result, if I just leave it alone, the village will be in chaos, and it won't be possible to just leave whenever I want."

Seeing Gilead's appearance.

I couldn't help but laugh.

"So, what are your plans after the rainy season ends?"

"Well……"

Kyrie I lowered his head slightly in thought.

"I originally planned to travel around, and there wasn't anywhere I absolutely had to go... but if the village still wants me to stay, I'd be willing..."

"Definitely."

I patted Gilead on the shoulder.

"Wow, what a huge wild boar! This is really something!"

Some leisurely sounds came from behind the wild boar.

I peeked out and saw that someone else had arrived.

Leading the way was a middle-aged man wearing round-framed glasses.

Following closely behind was a girl with long, light blue hair, wearing a flowing princess dress.

It's Zanoba and Benedict.

“Zanobah! Benedict!”

This really surprised me.

I had thought that Zanoba's arrival would be difficult because of his princely status, but I didn't expect him to come so readily.

Benedict was following behind.

"Teacher, it's so great to see you looking so energetic today."

Benedict said with a smile.

"After all, today is a day worth looking forward to."

As I said this, I continued to look behind me.

Zanaba was accompanied not only by Benedict, but also by a tall, thin man with slightly dark skin wearing an eye patch, and a slender young girl.

"Lord Rudius, it is a pleasure to see you again."

The somewhat creepy-looking guy, Randolph the Grim Reaper.

Unexpectedly, he came along too.

"Randolph...long time no see, how have you been?"

"Yes, yes. I serve as a bodyguard for the prince and princess, and I also work part-time as a chef!"

Randolph smiled and said, "If you have time, would you like to try my cooking?"

"Ha, haha... if there's a chance..."

I said that, but what I really thought was that it would be best if there was absolutely no chance.

Randolph's nickname is Death.

Death and chefs are linked...

It's just weird no matter what.

Then, my gaze continued to fall on the girl behind Randolph.

Julie.

"Grand master..."

It's been a while since we last saw her, and Jolie has developed quite beautifully. Saying she's petite is only relative; in reality, by normal proportions, Jolie has a very good figure.

Although she is somewhat short due to her Mine Clan bloodline, she is still a top-tier beauty.

Seeing Julie like this, my heart couldn't help but clench.

This reminds me of some bad memories.

In previous lives.

While I was still grieving the loss of my wife, I had thought about taking my desires out on someone like Julie...

I took a deep breath, calmed myself down, and reached out to pat Julie's head.

Julie.

"Yes!"

Julie answered nervously.

"Is the work too strenuous?"

"Eh?"

Chapter Twenty-Seven: Guests (Part Two)

Julie's body trembled slightly.

He looks a little nervous.

Perhaps it's because I know everything I do that I'm afraid of being scolded by you.

They may have already made up their minds.

But how could I possibly do such a thing?

“Julie, work is important, but you also need to take breaks from work sometimes.”

I gently patted Julie's head and said as gently as ever, "Don't accumulate too much pressure. If you encounter difficulties, asking for help from those around you is a good option."

"...Yes, Grand Master."

"As long as you know."

I patted Julie on the shoulder and laughed, "Alright, let's go in, almost everyone's here."

"Then let this prince lend a hand."

As he spoke, Zanoba swung his arm and hoisted the enormous wild boar onto his shoulder.

His movements were understated.

It was as if it wasn't a wild boar, but a piece of styrofoam.

"Oh, oh, oh, this is really..."

Kyrie I clapped in surprise.

The two walked toward the mansion's courtyard, with Randolph leading the way and Julie following closely behind.

Benedict did not follow me inside, but stayed a step behind, remaining beside me.

"teacher."

Benedict lowered his voice slightly.

"I am so happy to be here to attend your wedding and offer my blessings... I really envy your wife."

"They are the people who have supported me all the way, and I must thank them."

I changed the subject and asked, "Has that matter already been discussed?"

The so-called "that matter".

This naturally refers to the sound heard outside Julie's room on the day of her visit to the Kingdom of Siron.

"Yes."

Benedict nodded slightly.

“I have spoken with Julie and Parkus separately and I understand their feelings.”

"...How exactly is it?"

"They are truly in love."

Benedict said, "It may sound like I'm bragging, but Parkus is a smart and sensible boy with excellent qualities that will attract his peers without them even realizing it."

"I think Julie was attracted to him without even realizing it."

"Perhaps Julie was also alone for too long and needed someone to keep her company occasionally."

"The two gradually developed feelings for each other while spending time together."

"Once, Julie took sick leave, and Parkus..."
