Now then, I’m sure you’re all used to this by now considering it’s the fourth volume. Here I’ll introduce you all to the characters in the fourth volume and even tell you a little something extra about a few of them.

The sun was shining brightly today as I stood on the balcony of my room in the Sfir mansion. There wasn’t a single cloud in the sky, no wind, and the warm sunlight was gently caressing my skin. The weather was nice, but the atmosphere…didn’t match it. Amazingly, Elyse did manage to escape death. She ingested more than ten times …

“Alice, we can cleanse her stomach using spirit magic!” Elyse is unable to drink anything on her own, but Alice can use her magic to remove the poison from her stomach. But Alice looked troubled. “…that’s not possible. Leon, you know that the mana in a person’s body causes interference. It’s nearly impossible to directly affect someone’s body.” “I know, …

While dragging the tied up Seth behind us, we rushed to Elyse’s room. As we turned into the hall with Elyse’s room, a maid ran up to us when she spotted us. “Eric-sama, it’s bad. Elyse’s condition has deteriorated!” “I already know. Who’s with her now?” “Alice-sama is currently checking on her condition.” “Thank you. Wait outside her room until …

“– how is this possible!?” After Sophia finished reading the last person’s feelings she discovered that there was no traitor among the staff. “Calm down, Sophia.

It was now the night of the same day we had arrived at the Sfir mansion. I was relaxing in the room I had been given when there was a light rap on my door. Based on that knock, I doubt it’s anyone that came with me. I got up out of the chair and walked to the door. “Who’s …

Several hours passed as we travelled in the carriage. Before long, we arrived safely at the Sfir home. Besides Sophia and myself Alice, Elsa, and Milli were also here. Claire had to stay in Muhle to attend to business. It’s not like we’re on vacation or anything, but I do feel bad leaving Claire behind again. Maybe I’ll do something …

After finishing our meeting with Max and Melissa, we returned to Crane’s mansion. “Do you want to go tell Sophia?” “I probably should. I’m sure she’s worried about what happened.” “Yep, and she wouldn’t have to be had you just given your name to the Guild, otouto-kun.” “Gununu….” She’s right though. I refrained from arguing with her and turned to …

When I think about it calmly, this makes sense. If things were less hectic these past several days, I may have even considered it. So, I looked up at the girl who was laughing confidently. “Fufu~, it’s your reliable onee-chan.” She was the person that asked Melissa and Max to capture a Lyk Skull Bear alive.
