804 802 Parental Relics

Fran and Nadia headed for the tomb and began digging the ground carefully using earth magic.

I gradually moved out of the dirt to avoid damaging my parents' artifacts.

So, when I dug about one meter under the tombstone, something came out of the soil.

"Leather cloak....."

Pretty good stuff. It's probably Amanda's jacket. "

"Nh"

Inside the soil, a coat made of water was buried in a rounded state. When Fran lifted it up, it seemed that there was something hard inside.

Is it wooden? He must have been careful not to corrode it with water.

As Fran carefully stripped his coat, something like a wooden board came out from inside. The size is about postcard. The thickness is about the size of a pumpkin plate.

Surfaces are coated with paint. It looks like something black has been painted.

Part of it is missing, and I don't know what it was drawn at a glance.

But Fran seemed to know. When I take the wooden board in my hand, I stroke it with love.

What's that?

"Decoration made by your father. It was on the door of the house. We helped them make it."

It was like a front door plaque. Fran's father shaved it and painted it with Fran and his mother.

Originally there were three black cats drawn.

It's a memento. I'm glad I stayed.

"Nh"

Is there anything else in there?

"And then... this!

Fran raised something red and brown. I thought it was a small wooden board, but when I looked closely, it emitted a metallic gloss.

Isn't that an Alliance Card?

"Maybe that's...."

"Rank D Adventurer Card. It says Kinan and Flamea....."

I knew it!

Nadia was also looking for two guild cards. But I couldn't find it.

Someone took the guild card that the merchant should have deposited with the guild. Moreover, he seemed to be influential in the guild and could not be taught his nature.

Amanda.

"Nh"

"You said you were a Rank A Adventurer.

"Yes."

If you're a Rank A Adventurer, you have a great reputation.

I would have been able to collect Kinan's guild cards, and it was only natural that the guild wouldn't share any information with me.

You've been promoted to Rank D.

"Nh"

It is not a common effort for the Black Cats to rank up to Rank D on their own. Moreover, Fran's parents must have been in their 20s.

I continued my training while protecting my child, and finally began to bud. I wonder if that was the time.

"... Father. Mom, look."

Fran grabbed the guild card and pressed it against his chest.

Can Fran take this? I have to give it back to the guild, okay?

"It's okay. Often families have guild cards in their possession as artifacts."

Then you'll be fine.

"Oh yeah!

Gru!

When I was talking about guild card handling, there were signs of someone breaking into the village. Well, I suppose you're fighting the devil.

They didn't realize we were here, they discovered the structure and came to scout.

"Fran is waiting here. Cleaning garbage is a grave keeper's job."

"We're coming too!

"On!"

"The number of opponents is small. I'm all I need."

"Resistance is an enemy. I will fight to protect the tomb."

"... I can't help it. Now, listen to me.

"Okay."

"On!"

If Fran had the strength, he would have decided there was no danger. Nadia admitted to accompanying me as if she was a jerk.

When I left the cemetery and headed towards the entrance of the village, I saw about five anti-magicians walking through the village.

Apparently, Fran has been spotted walking. That was rough.

"Okay, let's go. Watch here."

"You don't use weapons?

"I don't need a weapon to fight the devil that much."

That's how Nadia ran away at once.

Fast!

(Nh)

Nadia's movements were faster than she could have imagined, but she still had a high capacity for secrecy. Fran won't be able to move with little noise while stirring up the grass at that speed.

Nadia instantly kills anti-demons in front of us.

He broke the anti-demon's head with his fist, just as he said he didn't need a weapon.

I thought you were a martial arts artist, but you seem to use weapons against strong enemies, and you have various skills.

Fran greets Nadia with excitement as she returns without sound.

"Auntie, that's amazing!

"Fufu, right?

"Um, how did you run without making a sound?

"That's a covert operation skill. The higher the level, the better you'll be able to act without making a sound in the grass."

I see.

Well……

Suddenly, Nadia grabbed her left arm and moaned briefly.

"Auntie! Daisyu? Are you hurt?

"No, I'm fine... A little bit of sequelae."

Apparently, he is sometimes attacked by severe pain. The disturbance when we found her is probably due to this sequelae.

"Do you use healing magic?

"Don't hesitate. This isn't healing magic."

"That's right...."

Fran leaned on Nadia's words with regret. But unlike Fran, I couldn't just trust Nadia.

Hey, I just want you to tell me one thing.

"... what?

She understood what I wanted to ask. He looked at me like he had given up somewhere.

This moment. Nadia-san... showed signs of antidemonization. Who are you?

"Master?"

If I get caught, I can't help it.

"Auntie?

Fran, who seems anxious, alternates between me and Nadia.

In the meantime, Nadia held her hand in her pocket and dragged out her sword vigorously.

"... I didn't want you to know."
