Were he the more flighty type, then he’d already have hit on the girl by his side, but he kept his actions to a light sigh. Because of his line of work, someone as full of secrets as Suimei had never been in a relationship before. Conflicting thoughts crossed his mind. This has nothing to do with me, he thought, even as he remembered all the girls he was acquainted with, who all seemed to be troublesome individuals, but that wasn’t important right now.
As Suimei waited his turn in line, whiling away his time thinking about trivial matters, all of a sudden the girl spoke to him.
“—Excuse me, but can I ask if you’re a frequent visitor of the Twilight Pavilion?”
A surprisingly gentle voice.
Her tone had been neither hesitant nor rude, but was instead remarkably polite, which perfectly fit her image.
Taken aback by the fact that she would speak to him, Suimei almost reflexively replied in his normal manner. Struck by the feeling that that would be inappropriate, however, he answered her with the same polite manner with which she had spoken to him.
“Oh, no, not at all. To be honest, this is my first time here.”
“What a coincidence, this is also my first time coming. I’d been wondering if this was the right line for guild applicants.”
“I believe it is. If you look at those other windows, they seem to be for people accepting commissions.”
As he spoke, he pointed in the direction of the alcohol-serving area. More reception windows like the one before them could be seen there with a collection of guild staff.
“Are you an adventurer as well?”
“Yes. I’m a woman who can’t do anything else but fight. This seemed like the best place to come to earn a daily living.”
The girl lightly tapped her sword as she mocked herself in a lively voice. As expected, she was someone who depended on combat to make a living. Judging by her appearance, she was either a warrior or a knight, so this was natural.
The girl suddenly offered her name.
“My name is Lefille Grakis. If it’s not inconvenient, would you mind telling me your name as well?”
“Huh?”
What did she say? Did she just ask something? The situation had suddenly become an exchange of introductions, and Suimei unconsciously voiced his shock.
Her polite manner notwithstanding, this turn of events was really too sudden. They were just neighbors standing in line, why were they suddenly introducing themselves?
Lefille looked apologetic.
“Sorry. Suddenly asking for your name must have come as quite a surprise, but there’s a reason for it.”
“…And what would that be?”
“There’s no need to be so guarded. When I visited the Church of Salvation earlier this morning, I received an oracle from the Goddess Arshuna: to exchange names with the people around me,” she answered, half-sighing.
It looked like it wasn’t just the person being questioned who was confused; the one asking the question was similarly bothered.
The Church of Salvation was the largest church in this world, one which worshipped the Goddess Arshuna. Back in the audience room, when they’d heard about the Maou, apparently intel on his existence and movements had similarly come as oracles from the Goddess Arshuna. A young girl like this had been given an oracle as well?
“Why would she ask you to do that?”
“I don’t really know myself. The priest in Mehter told me that the oracle from Arshuna meant that someone near me today would eventually become someone important to me.”
“And that’s why you asked for my name?”
“Yes.”
“Oracles, huh. They sure are fishy… Oh, no offense.”
The vague nature of the oracle had irritated Suimei to the point that he’d spoken without thinking, although he hastily corrected himself. As mentioned earlier, the Goddess Arshuna had countless believers. In this world, blasphemy was a dangerous thing, and was likely to draw the ire of surrounding people.
