Chapter 149: Aina Appears

Today is the day I go out to patrol with Snow. The two of us walk around the designated patrol course side by side.

The people of the city seem to have gotten used to it, and when they see us, they make a nod, raise their hands lightly, and call us out.

Members of the Order of the New Pure Maidens also said that more and more people are taking such a friendly attitude. Little by little, everyone seems to be moving forward.

While watching such a scene, Snow and I continue to patrol.

“Merchant Guild, ‘Guild…'”

“Guild, Guild… of adventurer ‘re’”

We were patrolling while doing a chained words game. We’re not skipping it. There are no thefts, quarrels, or conflicts, so I’m just trying to distract us. In other words, in a sense, this is a very peaceful sight.

It’s Snow’s turn and she frowns.

“Well, I can’t think of a ‘re’.”

“Are you sure? ‘re’ is fine.”

“Re? Huh, Restroom! Restroom!”

How about a woman of her age firing “restroom” outside? However, Snow has a pleasant expression, so I can’t dig in.

She is a magician of the A-minus class, the “Ice and Snow witch” but her words and deeds are of a stupid child, so the world is unknown.

I continue the game with “Re”.

“Re? Re, Reiki, ” ki “!”

“Ki? Ki, Ki, Ki … Ki, kiss me.”

Snow dyes her cheeks red and tells me with a shy smile.

“” Me”, Milady I’ll do it night and day.”

“Day and even tonight …?”

“‘Tonight of course! But I want to do it right now.'”

When I approach with a decisive face, Snow’s face became redder with moist eyes. Keeping an eye on each other, we create a space for two people despite the outside.

“Snow……”

“Lute-kun …”

“What! Snow-chan! What are you doing in front of such a public!?”

The voice was unfamiliar, but Snow responded and looked back, causing the world of the two to collapse.

When Snow saw the girl calling out, she made a surprised expression.

“Aina-chan! Why are you in this city!”

“Of course, I came to see Snow-chan.”

A girl called Aina smiled at us. She had long dark red hair, slightly quirky. With sharp elf ears, she was a little taller than Snow. She had almost no breasts, but her face was in order. She looked like a cheerful beautiful girl.

She wore a complete travel outfit carrying a backpack. It felt like she had just arrived in this city because of how dirty she was.

The girl stood next to Snow and looked sideways at me in the same uniform. Then she introduced herself with a smile like a sun.

“Nice to meet you! I am Aina, Snow’s friend a half human and half elf, I was in the same room as Snow in the magic school. My rank is magician B minus.”

A girl from Snow’s same room in the magician school came to visit.

A friend of Snow’s magician school visited us, so we quickly rounded up the patrol and returned to the headquarters.

Aina was asked to take a bath to wash away the tiredness of the trip. As her change clothes were used in the trip, I borrowed Meiya’s plain clothes, which were not very beautiful but had a similar physique.

Meanwhile, the escort maid apprentices washed Aina’s clothes. Aina got out of the bath and sank into the sofa in a dragon dress, which was traditional dragonkin clothing.

“Thank you very much. Not only did you get hot water, but you also lent me a change of clothes.”

Her hair was moist and wet, and her bare feet peeking through her dragon dress are glossy.

“Excuse me”

“Oh, thank you.”

The sound of Shia placing cold tea distracted my eyes from Aina’s bare feet. Dangerous, dangerous. I was about to be found if I watched a little more.

There were four people in the guest room: Snow, Shia, Aina, and I. Chris, Liz, and Meiya were out of their seats because she was Snow’s friend. Because there would be stories to tell. They said they would say hello later.

Snow asked me to attend as my husband to introduce me to her friend. Shia was present to take care of her as a maid. It seemed that the reason why we were not left to an escort maid apprentice was that they were still immature. If I made such an immature maid deal with Snow’s friend and there was a blunder, she emphasized that I would be in trouble.

Shia treats my wife Snow and Chris equally, just like Liz. Thank you.

She politely bowed and left the room. This left three people in the room. Then, we exchange self-introductions again.

“I’m Snow’s husband, Lute Gunsmith. Please to meet you.”

“Half human and half elf, Aina. My rank is magician B minus. I listened to Snow-chan talked about Lute so much that it hurt my ears.”

Snow, what on earth did you talk about?

We shook hands with each other and sit back on the sofa.

I asked what I was interested in.

“What does half human half elf mean?”

” My father is human, and my mother is an elf. Elves rarely marry other races and give birth to children, so there is no half-elf race, so my parents tried to say both races.”

By the way, the elf tribe has blonde hair, and the black elf tribe has silver hair and brown skin.

When the blood of other races is mixed, half-children with blond hair, silver hair, and brown skin are born.

Therefore, half-elves who are not of the same color as the clan tend to be seen by the elves with a slightly discriminatory eye.

Aina alternates between me and Snow sitting in front of her.

“But I was really surprised that Snow-chan would get married. Moreover, he was an aristocrat.”

“Huh? Why do you know I got married, Aina-chan?”

“It was a rumor of the wind that came to the magician school. The schoolboys and some girls are making a fuss.”

I was surprised that the boys and some girls in the school were making a fuss, was Snow popular at school?

While I was wondering if I should ask, Snow turned to me and proceeded.

“I was in the same room with Aina since my first year at the Magician School. Thanks to that, I caused a lot of trouble.”

“It’s annoying… But that’s really true.”

“Yeah!?”

At first, Aina was humbled by Snow’s words, but perhaps she remembered something, she covered her face with her hand and let out a deep sigh. Snow was surprised at the attitude of such a friend. Aina raised her face and speaks with a tired voice.

“I don’t know what to say to her husband, but Snow has been popular with the schoolboys since she was in the first grade. That’s right, from classmates to senior students, to junior students when the grade went up.”

“Is she so popular?”

“That’s right. You can tell that Snow has a fiancé just by looking at the bracelet on her left arm. However, it did not stop any beautiful boy, the upper aristocracy, and the boys from wealthy families. It was hard because she became so popular. They want to connect and showed their faces in the same room many times. For some reason, I was chasing other girls, teachers and even merchants from Snow-chan in the second half. “

Aina remembered the old days and sighed again. But why did merchants chase after Snow?

“There was one particularly obsessed, Am-kun, an upper-class aristocrat who governs the North Continent, he was a classmate of ours. Because Snow studied under the “Freezing Witch” and became an A minus class magician, he wanted to be suitable so, after graduating from school he went to train as a warrior without returning to his parents’ house. How many times has he came to approach? “

“Am-kun? Was there such a person?”

Snow, who sat next to me, tilted her head and asked the question.

Her voice was not joking or lying, it was telling you that she did not understand seriously. Aina smiled with a tense smile.

“Hey, you don’t hold your mouth, right? Snow-chan wasn’t interested in him. I said many times that she should remember his face and name! Because when we were in 2°, I think we angered a freshman and had to fight against 100 private soldiers he called in! “

“Snow, did you fight 100 private soldiers!?”

“Because she defeated 100 private soldiers unharmed, the Freezing Witch told me to call her the “witch of ice and snow”. “

“Ehehehe, I’ll be shy if you give me such a compliment, Aina-chan.”

“I’m not complimenting you; I’m not complimenting you. It was really hard to wipe your butt after that!”

In other words, Snow was popular at the magician school, and Aina, who was sitting in front of her after causing various incidents, Aina was wiping Snow’s ass.

“It looks like my wife was really under your care…”

“No, I’m used to it …”

“Auuuu …”

Snow’s student life in the magician school was destroyed, and she shyly turned her ears and face down. She talked to her friend to change the topic.

“So, Aina-chan, why did you come to Kokori town? Are you sightseeing? Your place of employment is in the inner part of the Beastman Continent, isn’t it?”

“No. I heard that Snow chan was here, the school asked me to give her the diploma.”

“I put my diploma in my backpack,” she added.

Snow became a special student of the magician A-minus class, and graduation was automatically decided.

“Snow-chan jumped out of the magician school, uh … I was 12 years old, so it’s been about 3 years? I didn’t know where to write you, so I asked the teachers to rent a corner of a warehouse and push in the personal belongings you left at the school, so please go back someday to get them. “

“Hmm, my wife is really indebted to you.”

“No, I’m really used to it, so it’s okay.”

“Auuuu …”

About three years ago, I was still Chris’ slave and butler apprentice, making a sniper rifle to rescue Madam. (TN: okusama, is the way the MC referred to Chris’ mother.)

At that time, it would have been difficult to rescue Madam if Snow hadn’t come to the dragon continent with superhuman intuition.

While Aina was staying we would give her the highest level of hospitality.

Aina picked up a cookie drank Incense tea. After drinking she changed the topic.

“So, have you met your parents yet? It’s been a long time since then, and you’ve already been to the North Continent, right?”

“Well…… I was busy with a lot of things, so I haven’t been able to go for a while yet, I guess.”

“If you’re busy, maybe you have a clue about your parents. it is a family clue. Even so, you said you were busy…”

Snow excused while squeezing words. Aina muttered a little dismayed.

This exchange reminded me of past conversations with Snow.

After resolving the vampire case, she proposed to go to the North Continent for clues in search of Snow’s parents. She said she dreamed of finding her parents and living with them when she was in an orphanage.

However, Snow herself…

“Of course, it would be wonderful to go, but……if it is us now, the Northern continent will be a little tough” she pointed out.

As soon as Snow entered the magician school, she examined various things about the “North Continent” and the “White Wolf tribe” in search of clues of her parents.

The North Continent is at “12” in terms of clock numbers. It’s a continent where it’s snowing all year round. The White Wolf is an ethnic minority living in the hinterland of the North Continent. However, there are many dangerous monsters in the hinterland of the North Continent. Typical examples are the white dragon and the giants.

The white dragon can spit out a snowstorm that freezes the opponent from its mouth. It’s rarely visible because it’s so far away on the North Continent.

Giants are giant walking stone statues that are constantly moving in groups. It seems to be a dangerous monster alongside a dragon.

I put it off because we couldn’t stand them with the equipment at that time. It’s been almost two years since then.

Now, I think we can go by combining the weapons we have developed in the past and the weapons we are currently developing.

I apologized to Snow sitting next to me.

“Sorry, Snow! I’m sorry! It’s not a problem to apologize for, but I’ve put it off forever!”

“It’s okay, I don’t care. And we’ve been really busy until now, and it was a suicide act to go to the hinterland of the North Continent with the strength of that time.”

Snow laughed, but I couldn’t forgive myself.

I promise again.

“The new pure maiden Knights have become accustomed to work and the security of the city has settled down, and if you take in count all the weapons including the equipment we are developing now, we can fight whether it is a White Dragon or a giant tribe in the hinterland of the Northern continent! So, let’s go find Snow’s … no, our parents!”

“Thank you, Lute, but only after getting permission from Chris and Liz.”

“Of course!”

Chris and Reese wouldn’t object to it, and they would go to the North Continent together with great support.

By the way, Snow didn’t ask if Meiya would go, naturally…

Thus, the north continent going was decided by a single talk to Aina.
