Dicuo, the mechanic from heaven

I greeted the woman and told her that she hadn't been there for a long time.

When it comes to this.

Al noticed that the consultant's face looked a little sad, which was rare.

"Maris and I used to come here all the time."

Downed a few glasses of wine.

Aegina began to talk to herself.

"That was the first adventurer I was responsible for. She died more than a month after entering the dungeon and starting her adventure."

"what."

Al eats his fries.

In terms of taste, the food in this tavern is average, but the signature "bright red honey wine" is really good. I can pack up some and take it back for Lord Demeter to try.

"It's a common thing for adventurers, right?"

"Ah."

Most of the adventurers in his charge would die.

It is inevitable for the job of guild consultant.

Aegina was a little surprised by El's calmness, but she had also felt similar emotions from many adventurers.

It's not about being numb to death or being callous towards others.

Instead.

Take it for granted.

An adventurer must have this kind of awareness.

This made Aina even more panicked, because adventurers who had such thoughts were usually "outstanding" guys.

That is to say, compared to most guys who have always been in the upper class and lived an mediocre "adventure life".

Will go deeper into more dangerous floors to become stronger.

And in this process.

The mortality rate will also rise sharply.

"Mr. Al is about to reach the middle level..."

56

Chapter 56: Unreliable Gods

Teenagers grow up so fast it's scary.

The huge amount of magic stones he brought back every day, and within less than a month of becoming an adventurer, he had already reached the 12th floor.

This made Aegina very worried.

That's why I suggested that Al do some commissions and take a break.

But this is not the solution.

Because there is no doubt that Al will be heading to the middle level soon.

This made Aegina feel a sense of inexplicable panic. She was very worried that the boy would end up like many of the adventurers she had been responsible for.

The woman had not yet become numb to this.

This is also the reason why she always reminds responsible adventurers not to take risks over and over again.

And to this.

Al was still used to it.

"I promised Master Demeter that I would not die."

Said softly.

Al said as he continued stuffing his mouth with honey-covered fries.

"Since Miss Aina is also worried, then I will also promise you."

"I won't die."

A reassurance for the boy's peace.

Aina was completely stunned for a moment, feeling a little funny, but also a little...

【Isn’t this even more worrying?】

The woman thought so and continued to lament in her heart.

I just want to touch the boy's head.

Tell him not to brag to girls casually!

But Al had already seen through her.

"Aegina looks a lot like her sister."

"Eh?!"

"Always worrying about this and that, like an older sister who's in charge of the household."

Well.

It really is……

The sweet wine made the woman's brain a little fuzzy.

She does have a sister.

There is also a sick mother and a father who is taking care of each other at home.

I had good grades in the [school district] back then, but to supplement my family income, I chose a job at the Adventurer's Guild in Orario...

Woohoo.

"Eru also thinks I'm not suitable to be an adventure consultant. I should be more ruthless..."

"That's not there."

Al said seriously.

"Ms. Aegina helped me a lot."

and.

Al made comments based on his experience.

"Death is inevitable, but before that, everything Ms. Aina did was not meaningless. It did help the adventurers you were responsible for. That's enough."

Soldiers will die on the battlefield, just like adventurers.

But even so.

The actions of those who guide and help others are more meaningful.

Because it's a very simple truth.

"If we don't even have this, the situation will be even worse."

"Well!"

Puffing up the little face.

Aina had a rather adorable expression while being a little embarrassed.

"El, you're so good at saying things that make girls happy!"

"be honest."

Hate!

Even happier!!

"Then have another one!!"

……

In the end, Aegina was a little drunk.

It wasn't to the point where he couldn't walk, but he was a little crooked and needed to be supported to go back.

It's already late at night here.

Happy Street in the distance seemed even more bustling.

The grand dance music could still be heard clearly even from such a distance.

Ai'er supported Aina and prepared to walk out of the alley, go to the main road outside, and then take a carriage to take the woman home.

result.

In the dark alley, I suddenly saw a dark shadow stumbling past.

Ok?

Al even felt a bit of the breath of God.

He walked over quietly and came to the place where the other person's shadow had just disappeared. Next to it was a narrow dead end alley with several trash cans as tall as a person.

Al walked forward silently and opened one of the trash cans.

"what……"

The screaming stopped abruptly.

The old man seemed to have noticed something, suddenly covered his mouth and stared at himself.

With the help of a little magic stone lamp light coming in from outside the alley.

Al could see that the guy hiding in the trash can was a godly old man wearing a white robe with gold edges and white hair.

"Eh?"

Aegina, who was a little drunk, seemed to recognize the other person.

"Isn't this Lord Dean Kate? What are you doing here?"

"Shhh!!"

Looking at the appearance of El and Aina, they didn't seem to be the scary guys chasing him.

Dean Kate cautiously poked his head out of the trash can, looked around, and then coughed lightly a few times, pretending to be a little embarrassed.

"There were some accidents, accidents..."

"Accident?"

"Boy, are you from Demeter?"

After seeing the Demeter family symbol on the side of El's shoulder, Dean Kate seemed more relieved.

after all.

A certain beautiful woman was well-known for her purity and goodness, and her family members were also known for their simplicity and honesty.

So that's the case.

"Boy, I'm in a little trouble right now and need your help. I'm telling you, you..."

Boom boom boom!

The ground suddenly shook.

But the old man who had just stuck his head out of the trash can was so scared that he shrank back inside.

And at the same time.

In the distance at night, an indescribable sound came...

"Cuckoo cuckoo..."

"Even gods can't be so excessive. Gua, you better hide well, I'm going to find you soon, gugugugugu..."
