Ryuushin was there in his dragon form when we went to slay the Evil Dragon.
He told us that he already defeated the Evil Dragon, so Seira and I went back with Lawrence, the person who brought the commission notice for the subjugation of the Evil God, without doing anything.
“Halt-dono, is it really okay to trust that black dragon?”
Lawrence asked while we were on our way back.
“I think it’s probably fine. I didn’t sense any malice from that Kokuryuu, and the girl was even trying to protect that dragon.”
Ryuushin seed to get along with a girl in no ti.
Was it because she’s the sacrifice, and he saved her from death, so they beca friends?
She was unfazed in front of my power and even tried to protect him, so I guess she must’ve adored Ryuushin a lot.
Well, I just released a spell that would make Ryuushin co back to his senses, so it wouldn’t kill him even if it had hit him. Besides, the holy attribute magic won’t injure humans even if it touched them.
There would have been no problem even if the girl was hit.
Well, in any case, I’m quite relieved that Ryuushin didn’t attack and force that girl.
I was also uneasy at the thought of seriously taking on Ryuushin, given that he’s beco my younger brother-in-law.
By the way, I decided to pay the commission fee that the villages owe for requesting help from the Adventurer’s Guild.
I was bothered why Ryuushin was in his dragon form so I did a bit of mind-reading, and found out that he was trying to intimidate the subjugation team so that they could jump the bill.
I didn’t condone that idea of his, but since he was trying to protect the girl, I decided to just let it slide and do sothing about the deposit of the request fee.
Seira and I didn’t even do anything, in the first place, so I think it’s fair that to cover the cost of Guild Master Lawrence’s preparations to defeat the Evil Dragon.
It wasn’t even much.
Lawrence — the Guild Master — and I had also beco acquainted, and that’ll be a plus when I create a clan in the future.
“By the way, Sir Lawrence, have you always lived in the city of Gareth?”
There’s sothing familiar about Gareth’s Guild Master.
There’s no doubt that it’s our first ti eting each other.
But then, I got this feeling that I already t him before.
“My family has settled in the city of Gareth ever since my great-grandfather’s generation lived here. In fact, I was nad after him.”
Oh, then perhaps —
“So your great-grandfather’s na is also Lawrence. By the way, was he also an Adventurer?”
“You’re sharp, Halt-dono. He was originally affiliated to his previous city’s Adventurer’s Guild, but he beca the hero of Gareth after saving the city from the stampede, and they decided to move and settle here.”
“Oh, so that’s how it was.”
Lawrence’s answer turned my guess into certainty.
I already t Lawrence’s great-grandfather, back when I ca to this world as the Guardian Hero.
He was one of the adventurers who protected the city a century ago.
The ‘Lawrence’ before was also wearing sothing that he did back then— a bracelet of hope stones.
The bracelet was still shining as yellow as ever, the color symbolizing hope for safety, just like how it did a hundred years ago.
Seira told that the commission ca from the city of Gareth, so I planned to visit them after slaying the Evil Dragon.
I wanted to see how Gareth, the city that the Guardian Hero saved, fared nowadays.
I didn’t imagine I’d be eting a person related to soone I knew back when I ca here as the Guardian Hero, and it made happy.
“Halt-dono, I see it now. That’s the city of Gareth.”
“Wow!”
It had beco magnificent, incomparable to how I saw it in the past.
Lawrence must be quite capable, seeing that he could be the Adventure’s Guild Master in such a huge city.
Afterward, Lawrence led us into Gareth.
And there —
“T-This is…”
“How is it? Isn’t it such a masterpiece? This is the statue of the Guardian Hero, the person who protected this city and the entire world!”
A colossal statue was enshrined in the central plaza of the city.
The Guardian Hero’s statue — in short, it’s my statue.
I feel like they beautified it too much.
Even I thought it was handso for a while there.
It was attracting a lot of attention, especially since it’s right in the middle of the city.
Honestly, it’s quite embarrassing.
“Halt-sama, can we also have this in the Holy City of Sanctum?”
Seira quietly muttered.
“Please, don’t even think about it.”
Seira knew that I was the Guardian Hero.
In the first place, the Holy City was dedicated to the Creation God, so it would be really shaless if they’re going to put a statue of in that place.
“By the way, you can also buy a miniature version of this statue at the souvenir shops around here. It’s one of the specialties of Gareth.”
Rocks suitable for sculpting could readily be found in this region, so there’s a lot of products made out of them.
It seed that the most popular product among them was the statue of the Guardian Hero.
Seira’s face lightened up when she heard what Lawrence said.
…Seira, don’t tell you’re planning to buy one, huh?
