Last Hero
Chapter 11: Elves And A Dream

Ignoring those words, these villagers greeted us with open arms.

Grandpa Lupin introduced us to everyone, initially they just stared at us flat and afterwards.

Some men were embracing me with a glass of beer in their hands.

"Drink, this is so good."

"You should try it."

Well, I'm not a drinker.

Somehow there was even a massive party here as if as a celebration, the female elves danced in their own way and for my party members they also tried it.

Yue seemed a little stiff doing it, but fight.

"So you're new adventurers, it's great that you've given up that bandit so much, thank you for bringing them back safely."

I don't have a problem, it's just

Whoareyou?

They're all too close.

Well, all day we really struggled to adapt to this place. After the party I was able to rest in peace and the next day we decided to take a little longer here.

Noel taught some children about knights, Yue helped the mothers cook while Kila taught the fathers to make weasel traps.

At times like that they look cool.

I who noticed only put on a face of wonder at once amazed.

"Master Okta you're awake."

"That's..."

"My name is Marie."

"Ah right."

Marie is one of the elves with pink hair, I knew her last night because she was trying to get me to chat about the outside world, not many elves were interested in the outside world but it seemed Marie had her own thoughts.

"So what do you have activities for today?"

"Hmm, I just decided to relax I guess, so nothing."

"I see, what would accompany me to pick apples, we have good fruit."

He plucked a few and dropped them so I could catch him downstairs.

"Now it's your turn to catch me."

"Wait, Marie."

I swiftly caught him below, and then slightly lost balance before falling together.

"I'm sorry, am I heavy?"

"Not really."

We sat staring at the vast expanse of fields while eating apples. I remember how Marie and I talked about the outside world in short what Marie wanted was to get out of this place.

I asked him to think about it again, after all, when he came out he would definitely not be able to come back here.

"On last night I thought I'd leave anyway, here I'm an orphan even though leaving there won't really be anyone who misses me, on the other hand maybe out there is something that always makes me curious."

I smiled a little and continued.

"If that's your decision then I'll try to help explain it to everyone."

"Thank you very much."

The members of my group who had been searching for my whereabouts had appeared.

"Ah, Okta is dating a nyan elf girl, they are alone under a nyan tree."

"It's really vulgar, but I want to see."

Yue put on a disgusted face.

Their appearance has always been a nuisance.

After I told them the reason they understood.

"So, I guess the Labyrinth city will suit you, won't it."

On Yue's statement, the other two agreed. They just thought that Marie was pretty and she could get any job there.

We recommend that he work as a cafe waiter or receptionist but that is rejected by him.

The answer he said was.

"I want to be an adventurer like you."
