Today, I had been called to Crane’s office It’s been a week since Max said he would speak with his client. Either the meeting has finally been set or Crane has discovered their client’s identity. With this thought in mind, I made my way to his office. When I arrived, Crane spoke to me with a rather annoyed tone. “There’s …

Max told us it would take around a week to contact their client. We decided to spend the next few days impatiently waiting in Crane’s mansion. However, I didn’t waste this free time during the wait. First off, I decided to write Claire a letter. Among other things, I asked her to begin a search for a new Lyk Skull …

Without the liver of a Lyk Skull Bear, Elyse will die. However, our one opportunity at getting this liver has been taken by someone else. What exactly should I do in this situation? I looked back at Max to find my answer. “I…treasure Sophia with all my heart. I will do anything to protect her.” “Does that mean…you’re declaring war …

“ — Oi, what’s going on!?” Shortly after Daniel woke up, he realized he was tied up. “We should be asking you that. Why were you following us?” “Wha -!? You noticed us!?” “So you admit you were following us.” “…no, that’s….” Daniel couldn’t look me in the eye. That’s as good as admitting his guilt. Remy looked shocked after …

I returned to the campsite with Remy. Although it was just a simple clearing minutes ago, it was now surrounded by earth walls and had a hut built in the centre.

I looked down at my clothes. I was wearing a pair of long pants and …

Starting tomorrow, we’ll be spending a few weeks out in the forest. We have a lot of preparations to make, but Crane’s servants are taking care of that. So, I was relaxing in the Marquis of Gramps’ drawing room. I was enjoying tea time for the first time in a while. “It’s been a while since it was just the …

“Okay, okay, time to stop.” I placed my hand on Rick’s head and held him there so he couldn’t reach me. When he heard my voice he stopped. “…eh, that voice, you’re that guy from earlier!? What are you doing here?” “Don’t worry about why I’m here. Why are you suddenly hitting people that come in?” “I heard Daniel oji-san …

“I’m sorry, Leo-san.” Sarah, who previously seemed enthusiastic about finding us a guide, entered the room alone with a sullen expression on her face. “You couldn’t find us a guide?” “Actually…Daniel heard about it and told any guide interested that he doesn’t believe you deserve to be rank A.” The moment she said his name I remembered the face of …

Leaves of the World Tree can be found behind the academy and an earth dragon’s claw is in Crane’s possession, so the ingredient I was most worried about getting was the liver of the rare Lyk Skull Bear.
