The day we said goodbye to Li Aili.
The Duke rode his horse behind Ellie's caravan.
His horse stopped at the border of the western county.
Only after the carriage had gradually disappeared into the distance did the man on horseback say in a deep voice, "If anything goes wrong with her, you will all pay with your heads."
As soon as he finished speaking, countless black shadows sprang out from his shadow and quickly caught up with Li Aili.
...
Grandi, a coastal city in Saint-Néch.
Here, the coastline is lined with sailboat marinas.
This is a shopping paradise.
Whether it's the mermaid silk from the Eastern Continent or the mithril ore from the Western Continent; whether it's the delicious pastries made by elves or the valley stew made by dwarves, there's nothing you can't buy here, only things you can't imagine.
This is also one of the few cities where you can see both the Church of Light and the Temple of Poseidon standing side by side.
Even during the day, the town's taverns are bustling with activity.
Sailors who finally made it ashore would order a pitcher of butter and honey beer and a small dish of snacks, and then soak in the water all day.
Taverns usually hire a curvaceous woman to dance.
The sailors would stand below the stage with their beer mugs, drooling over the dancers.
Today, the atmosphere is somewhat different in a tavern called "Lame Fat Dad".
With a few gulps, Li Aili, dressed in a sporty outfit, took a few big gulps of Grandi's signature dark beer.
White Rose tilted her head back and downed a pitcher of Grandi's signature dark beer in one gulp.
In comparison, Zhenzhen was much more refined, holding her beer mug and sipping it little by little.
However, under the table, Zhenzhen's lower body had turned back into a tree, with each thick root embedded in a pitcher cup.
The dark beer in the glass visibly 'disappeared'.
The tavern owner was spinning like a top behind the bar, all so that this tree spirit girl could drink to her heart's content in his little tavern.
Li Aili slammed down her beer mug with a thud, leaving a ring of foamy mustache around her mouth.
Her dazzling blonde hair was tied in a high ponytail, and she changed out of her gorgeous Baroque-style cake dress and put on highly enchanted adventure gear.
The upper body was clad in exquisite leather armor with magical defense capabilities, while the lower body was clad in magic-resistant trousers woven by elves.
A pair of black nylon leather boots that accentuated her leg shape, coupled with a face even more beautiful than an elf's, were enough to make the sailors in the tavern speak frankly.
However, right next to Ellie, Edward maintained his 'smile' and slowly wiped his knight's longsword.
This man exuded a fierce aura that suggested he had been through many battles.
The sailors obediently kept their heads down and looked at the ground, exercising the strictest control over their eyes.
“How strange. I thought it would be very difficult to convince Arthur to let me go on this adventure.” Li Aili tilted her head slightly.
A sheep sat next to her, ruminating and chewing grass with a blank expression.
In front of the sheep was a pitcher of butter, honey, and beer—this was the sheep's last act of defiance.
"As a result, he agreed so readily this time that I still feel a little unreal."
"I seriously doubt whether he'll catch me halfway there and bring me back."
White Rose downed a pitcher of Grandi dark beer in one go.
Then, she raised her empty glass high and called out, "Boss! Another one!"
Zhenzhen, holding up her empty wooden mug, exclaimed, "And here too! I want some here too!"
The tree roots on her lower body also 'raised their hands'.
The boss, nearly fainting with happiness: "..."
The owner, carrying a mountain of empty pitchers, wobbled as he walked toward the bar.
At that moment, the door was pushed open with a loud bang.
The shopkeeper was so startled that he shuddered, and the empty pitcher clattered to the ground, thankfully it was made entirely of wood.
Even so, the boss turned around angrily, only to see a little girl in a green cloak standing at the door, shorter than the doorknob.
boss:"……"
boss:"!!!"
【Aaaaaah! Holy crap! Why is she here again?!? ? ? 】
Li Aili looked over curiously.
Then, the lame boss forced a 'well-behaved' smile onto his fleshy face.
"Look who this is! Isn't this the great druid, 'Guardian of the Greenyard,' Miss Hajin?"
"What wind blew you here?"
The little girl, well, perhaps a druid lady who was only 1.49 meters tall, stood with her hands on her hips.
"Hey, how long has it been since I asked you to help me find a hero? Have you found even a single hair of a hero?"
The boss's smile was stiff.
The little girl narrowed her almond-shaped brown eyes slightly and raised her tiny fist. "Do you want to test how hard my fist is?"
"Pfft, hahaha~~" A group of sailors at the next table of Li Aili immediately burst into loud laughter.
However, apart from his table, the other tables in the tavern were completely silent.
Li Aili saw those people looking at the sailor who was laughing loudly with the same pity they would show someone looking at a dead man.
The bubbles on everyone's heads all screamed in unison: "Idiot...you're finished."
The shopkeeper looked at the sailors who were laughing incessantly with the same gaze one would give a new customer of a coffin shop.
"Little girl, are you weaned yet? You? Hahaha~ Come here, come and punch your big brother here, with all your might~~ Don't be afraid of hurting your big brother~~"
The burly sailor ripped open his dirty collar, revealing a chest covered in chest hair, and slapped it repeatedly with his large, fan-like hand. "Do you know how to punch? Want your brother to teach you?"
