Rebirth Lives Up to the Stars

Being so tired of being together all day long, the relationship between Xavier and I seems to have improved a lot before I knew it. Although he is irritable by nature and behaves very rudely, he seems to restrain himself in front of me.

His sponsor was a beautiful young warrior woman with dawn red hair named Phyllis.Although she is a fighter, she doesn't have to do any tasks in the mercenary regiment, she only deals with some documents and so on, so she is very leisurely.

I often see her tugging at Xavier's ear and admonishing him loudly so that he will not cause trouble everywhere.At that time, Phyllis's face was very hideous, and even I, the person in charge of watching, was a little scared.

But...she would also give him the best medicine for trauma after scolding Xavier.

Seeing her makes me think of Ryan sometimes.This is already the third year that Ryan has been my sponsor. During these three years, I had only one chance to meet him... and that one time, I missed it by chance.As of today, my communication with him is limited to paper, and besides... I haven't heard from Ryan for a long time.

I'm a little worried.

However, after asking Sister Tracy, she told me—"Towards the end of the year, the mercenary group may take on S-level missions, and S-level missions generally require members to keep it secret. Maybe it's because of this that I didn't reply to you."

S-level missions.

This seems to be the reason, because I vaguely remember that Ryan mentioned in the letter before that their mercenary group has done a lot of big tasks over the years, and it can almost hang the nameplate on the first-level mercenary group. Went in the queue.

In this way, you can also accept s-level missions.

It's also my fault that I've been so busy studying herbal medicine with Xavier these days that I forgot what Ryan said. I really worry for nothing.

Before dinner, there was a knock on my door, and when I opened it, Xavier's bandaged head approached.

"Kroll, it hurts."

"Have you been to the medical clinic?" So I shouldn't need to bandage you.

"It's not this." Xavier propped up his waist, pushed open the door of my room, walked in with a limp, then tore off his clothes very neatly, just like this, with his upper body naked, he threw himself on my bed superior.

I vaguely saw some blood stains on my bed sheet.

"My back and waist... ouch..." As soon as he lay down, Xavier began to howl.

...some days of the week.

I sighed, put the key ring in my hand on the table, took out a bottle of fuchsia potion from the low cabinet, and went back to the bed.

There were some knocked bruises on his back, which didn't look serious. I checked left and right, and found that there were no obvious marks elsewhere, so I dropped the medicine in my hand and helped him along the texture of Xavier's back. Rub those bruises away.

"Well... ah... so comfortable..."

The smell of the potion is a bit pungent, and the slippery touch of the palm is not good, but these are not as annoying as Xavier's voice in the voice-changing period.

"Easy... Take it easy... Kroll... En!"

...I really want to stuff his mouth with something.

"Are you fighting again?"

"Well...ah...you...what did you say?" He turned his head slightly and looked at me with his face half covered by the bandage.

"Are you fighting again?"

"...ah... yes, because Karina was bullied by her asshole stepfather."

Again for his group of partners.

Sometimes when I think about it, the cause of Xavier's fights seems to be for the sake of his friends, and rarely for himself.So even if Phyllis taught him a lesson, she could only say "provoking trouble", after all, he would always use the "big principle" of "standing up for his friends" to prevaricate everything.

Over time, Phyllis didn't know how to persuade him.

I didn't reply to him, and Xavier didn't say anything else. After being quiet for a while, he suddenly said, "...Hey, Kroll, do you think I'm a very troublesome person?"

"I've never, ever made friends with someone like you before."

"Pyne and the others call me the boss. Sometimes when I think about it, that kind of relationship is not really like a friend..."

He was rambling on, as if he wanted to tell me something.

This guy seems to have suddenly become a little negative.

I think that what he is like now can basically be summed up as the inexplicable troubles of adolescent boys.

I'm not going to comfort people.

If there is anything I should do, it seems that shutting up is the best choice.

"They all depend on me, but I... seem to be..."

The voice behind is as thin as a mosquito, making it difficult to hear clearly. At this time, the bruises on my hands have almost been rubbed. I looked at the sky and thought that if I go to eat now... there should be nothing good, how about It's convenient to go to Master Buzz for a meal.

Having made up my mind, I reached out and patted his shoulder, and threw the clothes he threw on the ground to him: "Troublemaker, get dressed, I'm going to eat."

"..." He was lying on the bed, with no intention of moving at all.

"what happened?"

"That... Kroll, you go first, I want to rest for a while."

...Does he still think about life in my room?

Forget it, I really don't understand the psychology of adolescent boys.

After briefly cleaning up my palms that were stained red by the potion, I handed the key ring on the table to Xavier.

"I'm going to Master Buzz's place. When you leave, close the door for me and put the key under the carpet at the door."

His head was covered by his clothes, so I couldn't see his face clearly, but he nodded his head, and I thought he had listened. He happened to be so hungry that his chest was pressed against his back, and he didn't care much, so the key plug, I hurried to Master Buzz's clinic.

When I returned to the room later, I found that my room seemed to have been cleaned, and the black checked sheets that were stained with Xavier's blood disappeared, and turned into a new blue striped sheet.

It's just... There seems to be a smell like chestnut blossoms and musk in the room.

Xavier's taste in incense... is really not flattering.

I opened the window to let the cold air into the room, I just hope that the smell can dissipate quickly before going to bed.

In winter, the old director of the Pansen Orphanage left his job and went to recuperate.

The newly appointed dean is a descendant of aristocrats with little magical talent. When he was 29 years old, his wife disappeared mysteriously and her whereabouts were unknown. In that year, his only son was also kidnapped by a group of notorious mercenaries who had been rampant on the mainland all year round. kill.

After recovering from his grief, he began to provide a lot of financial assistance to various welfare institutions, especially Pan Sen. Slowly, he became a well-known philanthropist, and was recognized and loved by everyone.

This time as the dean of the Pan Sen Welfare Institute, it was well-received.

only……

I don't know why, but I have a strange feeling—Since he became the dean, Pantheon has not been as stable and peaceful as before.
