Looking at some of the handicrafts and interior decorations, everyone bought what they liked. I also bought a couple of small things to put on my desk.However, I haven’t seen anyone I know since I entered the middle-level…… No, well, I guess it’s normal not to see each other in such a large venue, but I’ve seen so many people in such a short time that I feel like I’m going to see someone again.Well, though I say that, there’s no way you can just easily meet……[Ohh, if it isn’t Kaito. What a coincidence, meeting you here.][………………..][Unnn? What’s with that look on your face?][No, it’s nothing…… Did you both come here just the two of you, Acht, Eva?]While thinking about how quickly I ate my words, I exchanged a few words with Acht and Eva, whom I met by chance.[The both of us just happened to have the same day off, so we came together.][How about you, Kaito…… Ahh~~ You really came with a large group huh. Well then, my bad if we’re intruding. We’ll take our leave here……]When Acht and Eva saw everyone shopping a few distance away and were about to leave without sticking around for too long, Caraway approached.[……Miyama-sama, everyone is about to head towards the next location…… Ahh, your acquaintances?][Thank you, Caraway. Unnn, come to think of it, I’ve never introduced Caraway to the two of them, have I?] Follow current on novelenglish.net
When Acht and Eva had visited Lilia-san’s mansion before, Caraway hadn’t worked for me yet, so this should be the first time they had met.I mean, they did attend my housewarming party, but I don’t think they had the opportunity to talk……[I see. Nice to meet you, I’m Caraway, under the service of Miyama-sama.][Hi there. I’m Eval and this is Acht.][Nice to meet you…… Arehh? I feel like I’ve seen you somewhere before……][Unnn? Now that you mention it, I think I’ve seen you both somewhere……]The three of them exchanged light greetings, but halfway through, they looked at each with dubious expressions on their faces……[ [ [ Aaaaaahhhhhhh!? ] ] ]Then, for some reason, the three of them shouted almost simultaneously. As I was feeling started by the situation, Caraway pointed at the two and shouted.[The Delinquent Demons that rampaged through my territory!!!][ [ T- That Peerage-holder at that time!? ] ]Caraway looked kind of angry, while Acht and Eva looked pale and frightened…… Eh? What’s going on?[……Errr, you three know each other?]When I called out to them, all three of them turned to look at me, and glancing over at Caraway, Acht spoke. Follow current on novel-online.com
[Do you remember the story I told you at the barbecue before? I mentioned how me and Eva used to go on rampages, and we almost died because we screwed up.][U- Unnn, I remember. That’s when you met Kuro, right?][Yeah, that screw up…… It was regarding how we were almost killed by a Peerage-holder when we rampaged in their territory and incurred their wrath……][Eh? Then, could that Peerage-holder be……]From the flow of the conversation, it seems that Caraway is the Peerage-holder who almost killed Acht and Eva in the past.I see, that’s why all three of them were surprised. Feeling a little uneasy at their unexpected reunion, I looked at Caraway…… I felt some anger from her, but it doesn’t seem like she particularly wanted to hurt Acht and Eva.Acht and Eva looked at Caraway with a pale face, but after a little while, they regained their composure, looked at each other and nodded, before they deeply bowed to Caraway.[ [ We’re sorry about that time! ] ][……No, forget it. It was a long time ago, and I’m aware that I may have been overreacting.]Hearing their apologies, Caraway also relaxed and smiled. However, Acht and Eva still kept their heads deeply bowed.[……No, it may have been a coincidence that we met here, but we’ve been meaning to apologize to you when we see you.][The only thing I remember we’ve done is act violently in a bar, but if a Peerage-holder had become that angry and chased after us, then that must mean we’ve done something else wrong]Seeing the two of them earnestly apologizing, Caraway scratched her cheek, looking a little troubled, and responded.[……No, I had been too quick-tempered at that time. You got me involved in your quarrels at that time, and one of my people got hurt……. I was so mad that I went too far in what should have been a warning, so I’m sorry too. That’s why, raise your heads already.] Follow current on storynovel.net
At Caraway’s words, Acht and Eva raised their heads, looking rather apologetic.[……Caraway’s people?][Yes. I’m among the Catreid Tribe.][Catraid!? That means, you’re a Special Individual!]Hearing her race, Acht looked surprised. Since Eva also had the same look on her face, does that mean they didn’t expect Caraway’s race?As I tilted my head in wonder, Caraway, who must have sensed my question, turned to me and explained[……The Catreids are a very weak race. Even though it’s said that High-ranking Demons are born only once every few hundred years, there aren’t that many of my kind who’ve reached that level, so my kind is famous for being a weak race.][I see, that’s why the two of them were surprised……][I was the only Catreid in history to acquire a Peerage-rank, that I was called the Hero of my race…… Well, I got my just deserts and became “the disgrace of my race”……]Seeing Caraway talk about that with a slightly sad look on her face, I couldn’t help but be at a loss for words. Come to think of it, I don’t remember hearing much about the stories of her past.Looking at her like that…… If it’s possible, I wanted to know why she looked so sad.Serious-senpai : [This is!?]? ? ? : [No, I don’t really think this is a serious flag……]Serious-senpai : [No, I can see this happening! I can see a conversation about the discord within her tribe!!!]? ? ? : [I’ve heard that they’re still very close and that Caraway-san sometimes goes back to her hometown though.]Serious-senpai : [……No, couldn’t you at least break the flag in the main story…… Don’t break the serious flag here in the afterword.]
