Chapter 991 - White God Festival, Middle-level ⑤

Well, though I say that, there’s no way you can just easily meet……

[Ohh, if it isn’t Kaito. What a coincidence, meeting you here.]

[…………………]

[Unnn? What’s with that look on your face?]

[No, it’s nothing…… Did you both come here just the two of you, Acht, Eva?]

While thinking about how quickly I ate my words, I exchanged a few words with Acht and Eva, whom I met by chance.

[The both of us just happened to have the same day off, so we came together.]

[How about you, Kaito…… Ahh~~ You really came with a large group huh. Well then, my bad if we’re intruding. We’ll take our leave here……]

When Acht and Eva saw everyone shopping a few distance away and were about to leave without sticking around for too long, Caraway approached.

[……Miyama-sama, everyone is about to head towards the next location…… Ahh, your acquaintances?]

[Thank you, Caraway. Unnn, come to think of it, I’ve never introduced Caraway to the two of them, have I?]

When Acht and Eva had visited Lilia-san’s mansion before, Caraway hadn’t worked for me yet, so this should be the first time they had met.

I mean, they did attend my housewarming party, but I don’t think they had the opportunity to talk……

[I see. Nice to meet you, I’m Caraway, under the service of Miyama-sama.]

[Hi there. I’m Eval and this is Acht.]

[Nice to meet you…… Arehh? I feel like I’ve seen you somewhere before……]

[Unnn? Now that you mention it, I think I’ve seen you both somewhere……]

The three of them exchanged light greetings, but halfway through, they looked at each with dubious expressions on their faces……

[ [ [ Aaaaaahhhhhhh!? ] ] ]

Then, for some reason, the three of them shouted almost simultaneously. As I was feeling started by the situation, Caraway pointed at the two and shouted.

[The Delinquent Demons that rampaged through my territory!!!]

[ [ T- That Peerage-holder at that time!? ] ]

Caraway looked kind of angry, while Acht and Eva looked pale and frightened…… Eh? What’s going on?

[……Errr, you three know each other?]

When I called out to them, all three of them turned to look at me, and glancing over at Caraway, Acht spoke.

[Do you remember the story I told you at the barbecue before? I mentioned how me and Eva used to go on rampages, and we almost died because we screwed up.]

[U- Unnn, I remember. That’s when you met Kuro, right?]

[Yeah, that screw up…… It was regarding how we were almost killed by a Peerage-holder when we rampaged in their territory and incurred their wrath……]

[Eh? Then, could that Peerage-holder be……]

From the flow of the conversation, it seems that Caraway is the Peerage-holder who almost killed Acht and Eva in the past.

I see, that’s why all three of them were surprised. Feeling a little uneasy at their unexpected reunion, I looked at Caraway…… I felt some anger from her, but it doesn’t seem like she particularly wanted to hurt Acht and Eva.

Acht and Eva looked at Caraway with a pale face, but after a little while, they regained their composure, looked at each other and nodded, before they deeply bowed to Caraway.

[ [ We’re sorry about that time! ] ]

[……No, forget it. It was a long time ago, and I’m aware that I may have been overreacting.]

Hearing their apologies, Caraway also relaxed and smiled. However, Acht and Eva still kept their heads deeply bowed.

[……No, it may have been a coincidence that we met here, but we’ve been meaning to apologize to you when we see you.]

[The only thing I remember we’ve done is act violently in a bar, but if a Peerage-holder had become that angry and chased after us, then that must mean we’ve done something else wrong]

Seeing the two of them earnestly apologizing, Caraway scratched her cheek, looking a little troubled, and responded.

[……No, I had been too quick-tempered at that time. You got me involved in your quarrels at that time, and one of my people got hurt…… I was so mad that I went too far in what should have been a warning, so I’m sorry too. That’s why, raise your heads already.]

At Caraway’s words, Acht and Eva raised their heads, looking rather apologetic.

[……Caraway’s people?]

[Yes. I’m among the Catreid Tribe.]

[Catraid!? That means, you’re a Special Individual!]

Hearing her race, Acht looked surprised. Since Eva also had the same look on her face, does that mean they didn’t expect Caraway’s race?

As I tilted my head in wonder, Caraway, who must have sensed my question, turned to me and explained

[……The Catreids are a very weak race. Even though it’s said that High-ranking Demons are born only once every few hundred years, there aren’t that many of my kind who’ve reached that level, so my kind is famous for being a weak race.]

[I see, that’s why the two of them were surprised……]

[I was the only Catreid in history to acquire a Peerage-rank, that I was called the Hero of my race…… Well, I got my just deserts and became “the disgrace of my race”……]

Seeing Caraway talk about that with a slightly sad look on her face, I couldn’t help but be at a loss for words. Come to think of it, I don’t remember hearing much about the stories of her past.

Looking at her like that…… If it’s possible, I wanted to know why she looked so sad.

Serious-senpai: [This is!?]

???: [No, I don’t really think this is a serious flag……]

Serious-senpai: [No, I can see this happening! I can see a conversation about the discord within her tribe!!!]

???: [I’ve heard that they’re still very close and that Caraway-san sometimes goes back to her hometown though.]

Serious-senpai: [……No, couldn’t you at least break the flag in the main story…… Don’t break the serious flag here in the afterword.]
