The World's Strongest Witch Becomes Unemployed
Chapter 26: The Nearest City And Cosetta's Real Reason
We continued on our way back and when we reached the town square nearby we and the merchants parted ways.
I've already received the payment I split in two with Fel.
"From the beginning I felt strange, you should have been looking for his sword instead of looking for me."
"I'm just looking for an excuse not to get bored."
The horrible life of a hero, he made me his goal.
We visited a building for our entry permit and he said that the permit would be able to be taken after the next three days until then we would have to wait again.
Hearing that I dropped a limp shoulder, it's been traveling long enough now we have to wait.
Thank goodness we got the money to rent lodging and also to eat. Although Cosetta previously had money from his work in the guild, most of his funds went to the development of the slum.
"Gruesome man, I just saw the man who hung his life on the little girl."
"This is a deal," I replied to Fel's sharp gaze.
We visited a cheap inn with the big lady being the owner.
"You need to rent a room?"
"Message two, I'll sleep with Elina and Cosetta you can be with the hero."
"Why don't I just sleep with you as usual."
"It's not that you want to spend a lot of time with Fel."
"Ah it's true, mostly I want to hear his adventures."
"I don't mind."
The person in question answered without difficulty.
I can breathe a sigh of relief that the owner of this place doesn't know Fel very well.
I gave her payment including the meal money for three meals a day while we were here, as I expected, this inn was indeed cheap even though the bed was not too soft from the inn I knew.
Elina laid her body on the bed while staring at the ceiling of the room.
"No I thought you'd do this, at first I thought you were just playing around."
"You mean deliver the hero?"
"No, about Miss Cosetta."
"Well, I don't know why either, but it feels like I want to make her achieve her own dreams."
"Being a nobleman then destroying this kingdom, I as a former military faction want to reject it."
"Liarly, Cosetta doesn't really want to destroy this kingdom, I asked Wines to find out about it and it's surprising that there's a terrible fact in it."
Elina urged me to say it that's why I continued.
"He said that his father was caught embezzling money and his mother ran away but that's not the case, his father was slandered and his mother ran away to kill herself."
"Killed yourself?"
"The king forced her to be his concubine until she slandered Cosetta's father for committing a crime."
"It's impossible, he shouldn't be honest."
"Cosetta just doesn't want to involve us any further, fighting the kingdom is not an easy thing to do even more challenging to the king."
"I can understand why, but still he's only 9."
"The nobility always has a bad side because that's why compared to them I prefer to be what I am now."
Elina took a moment to reply to me.
"Then princess Alicia and Miss Cosetta could become enemies in the future."
"True, that's why I always say Cosetta is a terrible girl, Cosetta is a genius she can put herself as she expected, I think her existence is a law of karma that the king cannot avoid, the king plucked what he planted."
"If so you just feel sorry for Miss Cosetta."
"You could say so but not really, I just can't leave her alone. At least I want to see what he'll do in the future."
"I understand."
"Sorry to get you out of the military."
"No need to apologize, I've said I don't care even being an enemy of the world though, being able to serve you is something I've always wanted to do all my life."
"That sounds like I'm using you."
"I don't care either, master has saved your life since childhood, if there was no you I would no longer exist in this world and even I could not avenge myself against the demons of that time, if it were to be honest me and Miss Cosetta had something in common, she said, we lose everything and try to take back the lost thing, if only get out of the military faction I don't mind at all."
I just smiled and thanked him.
