The girl from the Magic Race with blue hair.
Roxy Migurdia, who had been silent up to now, whispered softly.
What she saw in her mind was a very young Rudeus who was learning swordsmanship from Paul.
Rudeus continued to swing his sword with a disappointed face no matter how many times Paul beat him down.
It was a boy that had a bundle of talent.
For someone that hadn't spent such time with that family, it was a dazzling scenery to the point of feeling envious.
"Well, I can understand Senpai's feelings. But, it'll be bad at this rate."
"That's right."
Rudeus has not taken a single bite since that day.
Even though he was encouraged to eat, he nodded with an [Oh], and didn't eat at all.
At the minimum, though he was drinking water, it was clear as day he was becoming increasingly haggard.
His eyes were sunk, his cheeks hollowed, one would think that he looked like death.
If he was left alone like this, he'll really die.
Everybody here thought that.
"...We must cheer him up again somehow."
At Roxy's words, Gisu glanced at Elinalize.
"Hey you, don't you do [That] all the time in times like these?"
"I can't do that."
Elinalize replied immediately.
The one who didn't understand [That] was Roxy.
"What can't be done?"
"..."
Gisu and Talhand looked at each other, then shut themselves up.
Roxy knit her eyebrows in puzzlement.
"Elinalize, do you have some kind of plan?"
"...I do not."
Elinalize answered that like she wanted to get something over with.
"Well, anyway."
Gisu was scratching cheek.
Talhand was drinking his beer like it was something interesting.
"Well, anyway. In times like this, it's best to forget by going all out to play."
"Play?"
"Men are self-interested creatures. By drinking beer, sleeping with girls, and feeling good, they immediately feel the joy of living, and would feel better again."
"Ah....! Ahh, I see."
Even Roxy can understand what was being said.
She could understand what Elinalize, who was attracted to men, would do.
"I, I see. M-me, men are like that! I see! I see..."
Roxy was looking down with a red face.
When a man feels down, he makes love to a woman.
It feels like she had heard something like this before.
Especially for mercenaries, before and after the battle, would buy a girl to distract their fears.
There were even many adventurers who would head to brothels immediately after a near-death experience on a quest.
