Chapter 140 – The Fiancée Appears
The night of our return home.
Aeris helped with the guild’s report and I went through the registration process at the commercial guild. Both of us were tired and came home and of course we planned to relax, but Marches was waiting in the living room of the house.
“…Well. Marches-san, we’ve had a long trip and to be honest, I’m tired, so can we do this tomorrow?”
Tauro wanted him to give him a break today, so he told Marches without hiding it.
“Well, I’ve been waiting for you since you said we’ll talk later.”
That’s right….
“Huh… Well, I was the one who said that, so let’s talk about it. But I won’t talk about the specifics today, because if I do, I won’t be able to sleep.”
Tauro made sure, but when Marches asked for an explanation of the magic lantern and the cloth that doesn’t get wet, he answered him, and before he knew it, it was midnight. Aeris had fallen asleep early on the way, tired.

The next morning.
Tauro was asleep and hadn’t woken up.
Aeris knew that, so she left him alone without waking him up.
Then Shin and Rumeya came to check up on them, but found out that Tauro was still sleeping.
“How about the three of us go on a herb gathering quest today?”
Shin suggested to them.
“Well, if there are any other simple quests we can do while we’re at it.”
Aeris replied, making them wait a little while she got ready and the three of them decided to go to the guild without Tauro.
When the three of them arrived in front of the guild, they saw a noble-looking man and his men, three soldiers in sheet metal armor, standing in front of the guild.
“What is that?”
Rumeya shouted, noticing these people who didn’t look like they belonged in the village of Dansas.

“They look like noblemen, but what are they doing in the countryside?”
Shin also noticed and craned his neck.
“It’s true. Their bad taste in clothing looks like…”
Aeris was about to compare it to something, but stopped mid-sentence.
Shin and Rumeya turned around in response to Aeris’s words and saw Aeris’s pale face.
“What’s wrong with you Aeris, you don’t look so good…?”
Rumeya looked into Aeris’s face.
Shin thought that the aristocratic-looking man in Aeris’s line of sight had something to do with it, so he quickly put his body between her and the man, blocking his view.
“Is that guy the cause, Aeris?”
Shin guessed and had Rumeya move his body so Aeris couldn’t be seen from that side.
Ad
“…That is my mother’s lover and with him is my intended fiancé, Uwakin who is the second son of a fallen viscount.”
“What is that…? There’s just too much information…!”
Rumeya was taken aback by Aeris’s complicated misfortune setting.
“Then again…I can see why Aeris is so pale. I wouldn’t want to meet that scum.”
“Okay, let’s get out of here.”
Rumeya tried to turn back the way they had come while hiding Aeris.
“Hey, you two wait there, and whoever’s hiding in the shadows, come out where I can see you.”
Uwakin noticed the back of Shin and Rumeya, and Aeris, who was slightly in the shadows, and stopped them.
But the three of them pretended not to notice his words, ignored him, and turned to leave.
“Oh, hey! It’s disrespectful to ignore the people of the Marquis of Van Dyne (to be)! Hey, you guys, stop those people!”
Uwakin ordered the three soldiers he had with him.
The soldiers did as they were told and ran towards them, grabbing Rumeya and Shin by the shoulders and trying to turn them around.
Shin and Rumeya turned around to meet the force of the tug, and repelled the hand.
“What the… you guys are trying to resist!”
The soldiers held their spears in their hands.
“Oh, they’ve got their weapons up!”
“What are you talking about when you carelessly grab a man by the shoulders?”
Rumeya and Shin continued to stand between Aeris and Uwakin’s view.
Then Chloe came out of the guild to the commotion out front.
“What’s going on?”
She spoke unusually loudly and intervened.
Uwakin and the soldiers looked at Chloe at the sound of her voice.
“What is it, girl? I am (or will be) the Marquis of Van Dyne, remember?”
Uwakin wielded authority as he looked Chloe all over with an arrogant gaze from her feet.
“I’m the head of the Adventurer’s Guild Dansas branch. Even if you are a nobleman, should you be allowed to interfere with the Adventurer’s Guild under the oath between the country and the guild? What kind of business is it of yours to point a weapon at our adventurers?”
Chloe was inwardly intimidated by the title of marquis, but on the surface she showed her authority as the branch chief.
In the corner of her eye, she saw Aeris and the others fleeing into the shadows of the building and she felt relieved inside that she had done her job.
