Dividing Work

“Thanks for all the info and the arrangements as well.”

“Like I said, don’t worry about it. I am doing all this because I see the merits in doing so that’s all. And besides, I had been unable to get much info on Milworc so that guy would have been a blind spot in our strategy. But you guys already got rid of that problem by yourselves beforehand, so in a way, it’s your actions that has made my info so ‘accurate’ Chris.”

She spoke so modestly, but Charlotte also played a part in sending Milworc my way in the first place.

Of course, I was the one who actually beat him but that is not to say that Charlotte didn’t deserve any credit for the results either.

“Regardless, you’ve been a great help. And don’t worry, I won’t disappoint you and will defeat Klaus no matter what.”

“If you didn’t, I’ll resent you for the rest of your life so you better.”

I chuckled at her words, and then got up from the sofa.

At the same time, I returned a curt bow to Alexandra who bowed to me again, and then began to leave the room when…….

I noticed Gautier who was still lying on the floor unconscious.

“Hey Charlotte, should I wake up Gautier?”

“I’ll ask again but, he’s not dead right?”

“Yeah……..there, you can hear his breathing right?”

“Oh you’re right. Then leave him be. I’ll handle him on our side.”

“Got it. Well then, ——in 3 days, right?”

“I don’t know if I’ll actually be available to see you off in three days but, sure, see you then.”

With our farewells done, we finally left [Lemon Kid].

It was dark outside when we came here, but now the sun had begun to rise, and there were people already going about their daily work on the main street.

“Man that used up a lot of my brain power so I’m feeling really sleepy, but, I’m also feeling a bit worked up as well!”

“Same here………I guess we should get on with our work right away in that case. Our time’s limited anyway.”

“I agree. Where do we start?”

3 days wasn’t that much time when you really think about it. We’ll need to divide all the work and quickly get things done.

But first of all…….we need to look for a new inn to change from Isabelle’s home, and then go and pick up snow.

After talking to Charlotte I know that the matter with [Under Eye] has been completely taken care of.

While Klaus is away from the capital, I have no need to be secretive either, so we can about and do everything without being worried about getting found out.

“Let’s search for a new inn first. And then we go get Snow.”

“Oh, we’re going to get Snow already!…….but, are we really going to be taking Snow with us to [Foro Neem] as well? Worse case, it might lose its life during the fights as well no?”

“Snow can understand what we say, so I’ll try my best to properly explain the situation to it but…….I won’t force Snow to do anything it doesn’t want to do. Part of me wants to leave it inside Peixa forest for even longer but, in the off chance we lose and die against Klaus without properly even talking to Snow one last time, we’re going to get hated even in our afterlife by Snow.”

“I agree. If I was in Snow’s position I would hate not being told such important things as well. Although even I do hope that Snow chooses to say inside the forest even after we tell it everything.”

I know what Ralf wants to say but, honestly, inside my head, Ralf and Esta themselves are in the same spot for me.

Now that I have decided to trust these two, I have to trust Snow the same way.

“Well yeah, I’d be pretty mad if that happened to me as well, and I mean, we did get angry at Chris for something similar………We do need to properly explain everything to Snow after all.”

“Pretty much. Also, as for getting Snow, let’s pick one of us to go there. Time’s limited, and while I feel for Snow, it’s not efficient to have 2, 3 people going all the way to the forest just to get Snow.”

“Then I’ll go again! I did promise it that I’ll come meet Snow soon after all!”

“I see. Then I’ll leave Snow to you Ralf. Be sure to bring it back safe and sound.”

“Understood! I’ll leave right away and be back by the end of the day!”

Ralf had been with Snow until yesterday, so he probably knows exactly where Snow is living inside the forest. I’m sure he’ll bring Snow back very quickly.

“So what should I be doing then Chris-san?”

“Esta, I’ll leave searching for the inn to you. [Gilavar Hotel] will do if they allow for monster pets.”

“Understood. I’ll go check at [Gilavar Hotel] first. If that place is a no go, I’ll go look for a hotel that meets our criteria then!”

“Yeah, I’m counting on you. I’ll focus on shopping, and analyzing all the info we have gained. Also……there’s someone I have to meet by myself so I’ll go there as well.”

Both of them tilted their heads in confusion not knowing who I was talking about. I could have taken the time to explain but, I doubt they even remember him anyway so I can leave that for later if something worth talking about actually happens.

And thus, with all our next tasks set, first we returned to Isabelle’s home. From there, Ralf quickly left to Peixa forest again, and Esta left for the main street to look for the inn.

Left alone in Isabelle’s home, I focused on packing all our stuff first, and then once I was done with our shopping, I decided to go and visit a certain handsome priest that had apparently been transferred to the capital.
