Philsa spread her hands, making an indifferent gesture. At the same time, she thought that the "misunderstanding" Sherry was referring to might also include the incident of Keller's attack on her that day.
"Then you must have met General Keller, right? I've heard he's also a rumored bearer of the emblem. Have you seen him use the emblem?"
"certainly."
That's for sure. The instant Kaiser activated his emblem towards himself.
Firsa, who was injured as a result, will never forget it.
He tried his best to tell the truth, but omitted the details of his battle with Kaireiser, fearing that it would cause another, even greater, misunderstanding.
The four people cleared up the previous misunderstanding and sat down together at a round table to talk about the collapse of the Time Reversal Tower and the return of the Demon Lord.
During their conversation, although Philsa and the young man did not belong to the same knight order, they were of the same profession and shared a common desire to protect their country, so they got along very well and there was no indication that there had been any misunderstanding before.
As their engaging conversation drew to a close, Shirley kept giving Philsa meaningful glances, signaling that she had something important to do and should end the conversation quickly so they could go back to their room together.
"Hey, I bought you this—"
Philsa followed Shirley into the room, then carefully closed the door and whispered these words.
She took a small bag out of her fanny pack and handed it to Philsa.
He picked up the bag and shook it near his ear. Judging from the crisp sound of the contents colliding, the small white paper bag seemed to contain some solid crystals.
"What...is that thing?"
"I got these from the black market through a friend. These medicines can temporarily boost your magic power and clear your magic veins. This way, you won't be hindered by blocked magic veins in battle anymore."
Philsa had long been at his wits' end with his chronic illness. Today, Shirley brought him a turning point, with symptoms easing, which overjoyed him.
Sherry continued in a low voice, "Although it's not exactly a banned substance, there's no legal way to sell it in the Duchy of Valentino. So, generally speaking, it's best not to let outsiders know about it."
Also, remember to keep this with you at all times. You need to know when you might encounter a monster; it's unpredictable, so always be prepared.
Philsa put the medicine into the inside pocket of his coat and readily agreed. Then, he told Sherry about his conversation with Seris and his itinerary to arrive at the Alchemists' Guild of Gransis before dusk that day.
"Then let's get going as soon as possible. It's almost afternoon. I did waste a lot of time this morning."
After saying that, Shirley picked up the fanny pack she had just put down and skillfully fastened it around her slender waist.
Then he put on his usual brown coat, completely covering the bag at his waist.
When she lifted her long hair, which was sandwiched between two pieces of clothing, and let it be fully exposed, a few stray hairs accidentally came loose by her ears, which made Philsa notice that Shirley was still wearing the earrings he had given her for her birthday.
It seems she really loves this jade earring, and is reluctant to take it off, wearing it carefully every time she goes out.
Philsa couldn't help but smile, a feeling she couldn't quite describe welling up inside her.
The two young men were now ready to depart at any moment. Although they had arrived several days earlier and didn't have any particularly important tasks to complete—
However, due to the incident at the Tower of Reversal, Philsa spent most of his time in bed.
Sherry, in order to take care of her injured companion, did not leave the guild for even a moment until he recovered.
Therefore, the two were unable to enjoy the swim as originally planned, which is a regrettable situation.
At the top of the stairs, Philsa encountered the two Obsidian Knights from before once again.
“Oh, Mr. Philsa is also preparing to leave Shidu? Olina and I are the same. Where are you headed? Our destination is Gransis, the ancient capital across from the Emerald Snow Tree Sea.”
"Ancient capital... wait, is that the holy capital Gransis?"
Sherry was not immediately aware that some people referred to Gransis as the ancient capital.
“Oh dear, Lampard, I’m so sorry. We were both born in Gransis, so we’re more used to calling Gransis the ancient capital. It’s really bothering Miss Sherry.”
Olina explained in a friendly manner.
Upon learning that they were heading to the same destination, Philsa suggested that the four of them travel together.
The suggestion was unanimously agreed upon by the other three.
Having two companions on a trip always makes it much more fun than usual.
The four walked on the path leading from the east gate of Shidu to the sea of trees.
The two boys walked ahead, busy exchanging their knowledge and experiences, and then discussing their strategies and tactics for fighting monsters. The two knights quickly formed a friendship, even feeling as if they had known each other for a long time.
Sherry and Olina followed not far behind, both smiling as they looked at the two ahead.
"Excuse me, are you and Mr. Philsa dating?"
"well?"
Sherry was taken aback by Olina's sudden question. She remained silent, neither answering nor denying it.
The girl blushed—Olina thought with a chuckle. She hadn't expected that such a casual question would make Shirley, this budding flower, blush so deeply, as if she were about to bloom.
"Then I'll take that as your agreement. Actually, ever since I met you two this morning, I've felt that you and him seem to have a very good relationship."
