The event that made want to beco an adventurer.
Approximately 10 years ago, when I went out together with Hana. A dungeon collapse occurred in a nearby dungeon, causing a large number of monsters to appear on the surface, involving Hana and .
The next mont when we prepared ourselves to die facing a monster that was much larger than ourselves an adventurer appeared before us, instantly subduing the monster.
I admired that back and power that he showed in front of us. But now, the mory of that day is vague, and I dont even know who that adventurer was. Even so, I still rember the passion of wanting to be an adventurer that arose in my heart.
That is why, if I could beco an adventurer when I grow up, I wanted to be as strong as him, and beco soone who could protect those important to him.
Reasons such as wanting to make so money or wanting to prove to those who looked down on as incompetent wrong was just an excuse, as the trigger was in fact just a small admiration.
I guess thats about it.
Although brief, I concluded it like that after finishing talking about the reason why I wanted to beco an adventurer. I guess you could say that my reason was a minorityyet not particularly uncommon among the many adventurers who seek status, honor, and money.
I wonder what she would think after hearing that. With that in mind, I was nervously looking at her.
I think it is wonderful.

Claire said with a gentle smile, making surprised at the unexpected expression, and fascinated by her beauty at the sa ti.
Ive heard from Yui-san and Rei-san that both of them have been helped by you, and they felt really grateful for that. Its the sa for Yagami-san yesterday. I think you have already achieved that goal.
. I wonder if thats true.
Ee, I am sure it is true. And I wish, at the end of that goal, I too, will.
As if noticed sothing, Claire suddenly shuts her mouth.
Whats wrong?
N-no, nothing. Rather than that, it looks like you are about to finish off your tea. Should I ask for another helping?
No, its fine,
Saying that, I drank the already cold milk tea. Since the matter that made Claire call here seems to be over, I guess its about ti we part. But before that, there is one thing I wanted to ask.
Can I also ask one question?
Yes, what is it?
Please tell why Claire wanted to be an adventurer?
Just like how Claire wanted to hear mine, I also wanted to hear her reason, as I thought I might be able to know the reason for her strength.
Then, after opening her eyes widely for a mont, Claires gentle atmosphere changed. She looked at No, at sowhere that wasnt here with cold eyes that could even freeze the atmosphere and moved her cherry lips.
To protect, everythingbecause that is my duty.
Duty?
Neither objective nor dream, she said duty, as if that word seems to be not of her own.
Claire
I guess thats about it. Looks like its not so different from Amane-sans reason
..
She interrupted my question, leaving her na that I called dispersing in the air. Although her soft atmosphere is back, it feels like shes insisting that she doesnt want to go any further than that.
And because I stopped speaking, an awkward silence flowed between us, until Claire opened her mouth to break the silent atmosphere between us.
Amane-san, thanks for giving so of your ti today. Im glad I could hear a valuable story from you. Now, I think its ti for us to leave the caf.
Claire then stood after picking up the bills. But I wondered why. From that back of her, I could feel sothing akin to loneliness. And I thought I had to stop her here.
Wait, Claire.
Yes?
Hearing my call, Claire looked back. Although I succeeded in stopping her, I didnt know what to say from here. But after thinking for a few monts I arrived at the answer.
Co to think of it, it seems Wolven ver 2 will appear in the next episode
Another helping of coffee please
Ah, please, mine too
And one hour after that, we finally parted.
