Itâs been a week since Noelia did Magic Power Synchronization as she likes.
Because I made a daughter of the frontier count who ruled Youg Hannotes faint, I thought I was in trouble, but when she woke up, Noelia didnât say anything and only glared at me, then she stood up and left that place.
Since then, I have been staying in an inn that Rebecca introduced to me while living the adventurerâs life in Youg Hannotes without any problemäžäž
I want to think that thereâs no problem.
I want to, butâŠ
When I was waiting for the payment of yesterdayâs reward while looking at the counter for accepting todayâs work, I felt a hot gaze from behind me.
Itâs not like the sharpness of killing intent, and the gaze didnât felt like of kindness as well.
I could only describe it as hot gaze that made my back tingling.
âYes, hereâs the 400 oz of yesterdayâs request completion reward. It seems like Frick-sama knew the requests to earn solid income for a beginner adventurer, right.â
The one who placed the reward for the request that I had completed yesterday was Rebecca, who was appointed as my exclusive receptionist after Noeliaâs case.
Despite changing to a new name, I was an adventurer from the start, so Iâm familiar with the monsters that can be easily subjugated alone and the profitable requests.
Although I heard that the monsters at the frontier were strong, there were no strong monster in the subjugation requests for iron rank.
âIs that so? I just pick what I think I can do alone.â
âEven so, they are solid reliable thoughâŠâ
Rebecca look at the list of the requests I had took and tilt her head.
If I continue to complete requests as planned, next month, I will be able to clear the achievements required to promote to bronze rank and be able hear about the promotion then.
The higher the rank, the higher the difficulty and rewards of the requests that can be taken.
Therefore, living in the frontier, where prices are cheaper than the capital, was supposed to be more stable.
The problem is not that⊠itâs related to the treatment of the person who is sending a hot gaze on my back right now.
âRather than that, can you do something about that⊠Iâm troubled because Iâm being watched around the clock. Yesterday, she even followed me to the inn and stayed in the next room.'(TLN : I used â â because they are whispering)
I looked at the list of requests I completed and begs in low voice to RebeccaăŒwho tilted her headăŒ to do something about the owner of the gaze.
âAah~, thatâs impossible. Noelia Ojou-sama had never lost to anyone in Magic Power Synchronization. Besides, she is the one who was declared as the person who can handle anything related to magic better than anyone. Surely, itâs not weird for her to be curious about Frick-sama who has bigger amount of magic power than her. There is no real harm yâknow, and there is a directive from the Frontier Count-sama to the Guild Master that said, âIgnore my daughterâs actionsâ, so we are unable to do anything to her yâknow.â
âBut, it canât be helped that I would feel bothered if Iâm always being watched around the clock.â
When I turned my face toward NoeliaăŒwho sent me the hot gazeăŒ,she suddenly disappeared behind the pillar.
Then, the hot gaze pierced my back again.
The day after the Magic Power Synchronization, Noelia started to watching me.
At the beginning, she just kept staring at me in the waiting room and reception desk of the Adventurerâs Guild.
That watching time increases gradually to when Iâm walking around the city and while Iâm subjugating monsters, and yesterday, she even followed me till the inn.
I thought that she wanted to tell me something about the Magic Power Synchronization, but she escaped when I tried to talk to her, and she even hid when I turned my line of sight toward her now.
Itâs only because I, who had unusual life with the selfish tyrant Alfine, became more sensitive to gaze and presence.
For such me, it canât be helped that I had felt the presence who keep monitoring me around the clock.
âCanât I depend on you to ask her? She will run away if I try talking to her, if itâs Rebecca who is also a woman, maybe you can persuade her to stop?â
âItâs impossible. As long as Frick-sama outstripped Noelia-samaâs amount of magic power, she will continue to watching you until she gets tired.â
Rebecca laughed grinningly and refused to persuade Noelia.
Even though she told me to counsult to her if I have a problemâŠ
At this rate, Iâll have to live under the same tension as when I was living with Alfine.
I turned my face toward Noelia again, but she hid behind and stopped gazing as expected.
âHuuăŒ, it canât be helped⊠It means she will stop looking when she wanted to stop, huh.â
I sighed, and decided to give up persuading Noelia for the time being.
âI think thatâs better. I donât think even Noelia Ojou-sama can continue for months. So, have you decided which request to take today?â
I decided to postpone the measure against Noelia, and to earn todayâs food money and accomplishments, I pick some monster subjugation from the request labels that Rebecca brought over.
âIâve decided. Todayâs request is this, this and this, please.â
âI understand. This is the proof of acceptance. But as expected, it is solid today as well, you took requests that has high promotion assessment from the Adventurerâs Guild. By any chance, are you experienced?â
Rebeccaâs gaze that was appraising me changed.
I canât say that I was platinum rank in the Adventurerâs Guild in the royal capital.
Speaking of that kind of thing will expose Finnâs location, and I couldnât give up on the possibility that Alfine, who found where I was, would rushed here.
For me to live a peaceful adventurer life at the frontier, there is no choice but to act as the beginner adventurer Frick.
âThereâs no way, right. Then, Iâm going.â
âAh! You are going now? Frick-sama, be safe!â
Before receiving more questioning from Rebecca, I decided to leave counter and head to the forest on the outskirts of Youg Hannotes where the monsters to be subjugated were located.
