An A-Ranked Adventurer’s ‘Slow-living’ - 79 Kourne

She made a voice in the flower garden as if Kourne was excited.

Kurune rushes to the flower garden, shaking the brown ponytail tied at the back of the head.

He had settled down until he got here, but as soon as he saw the flower garden he became a child. Well, given the beauty of this flower garden, it is natural.

I grin a little bit and walk to enjoy the colorful scenery that spreads out before my eyes.

Now is mid-September, just after summer. In the flower gardens of Nordende, chiragora and blue flowers are appearing, and warm colors such as red and orange are fading.

“It’s much wider than I imagined! And it’s really beautiful as Aldo says!”

“right?”

Before leaving the royal capital, there is a scene in front of me that I could not talk about. Looking at the scene, I am glad that Kourne sympathizes with me as well.

Looking at Kourne looking at the flower garden with his eyes open and impressed, he feels proud somewhere, probably because he lives in this village.

When I realized my feelings, I thought I couldn’t help but love this village and had a feeling of attachment. Even though the royal capital, which has spent a long time until now, there was no such attachment.

Kourne gazed at the vast flower field and succumbed to the flowers blooming under his feet.

“It’s amazing. This is a tulip? I’ve seen red and yellow, but I’ve never seen a color that mixes orange and light blue.”

“The flowers here change color depending on the season. The color changes every day and it moves.”

“Is that the color of the flowers changing every day?”

I nodded at Kurune asking while looking up.

“Hey, when I first heard that story from Aldo, I thought it was a lie, but it was true.”

I didn’t believe it at all.

Well, when I first heard it, I doubted it.

“Wow, this is a rose? It’s the same green color as the leaves. Somehow, roses have a red image, so I’m confused that they have a completely different color.”

“Oh, you know it, because it’s a totally different color from a typical flower here.”

Anyone who knows common flowers will be surprised at this sight. If you see such a sight like a flower shop in the royal city, you must be confused.

While I’m thinking about that, Kourne finds and knows the flowers I know. It seems interesting that it is interesting that the flower that I know has an unusual color.

If I knew a little more about ordinary flowers, I guess I could have enjoyed it like that. I just want to scold me for studying the flowers of old days.

However, there is some knowledge I have learned since coming to this village. I’ve grown up, so I’ll show off my knowledge to Kourne and brag about it.

When I looked like a child, I looked around and found a good flower under my feet.

“Krune, do you know? Can this Munnica eat flowers?”

“Oh, can I eat flowers?”

Sure enough, Kourne looks strange and strange.

When I saw Kourne’s reaction, I talked about it.

“That’s right. It can also be used as a vegetable when mixed with salads or eaten with meat. Floating in tea or soup gives out sweet nectar and makes it delicious and looks good. It seems like it is ”

Yeah, I guess Flora would have said something like this.

“Hey, it’s a terrible but unacceptable line. Aside from salads and vegetables, tea and skin descent aren’t aldo-ish.”

I expected the words of praise from Kourne, but returned with a gaze and cold words.

“Well, that’s right! I was told by Flora! Is it bad!”

“No, it’s not bad, but it’s awkward. The hero called the Dragon Slayer boasts about flowers.”

She was embarrassed to be able to see through easily, and when she said quickly, Kourne laughed funny.

I understand that it doesn’t suit me, so I want you to leave it alone.

As I crossed my face, Courney snapped her sleeves.

What? Will you still laugh?

“But it’s interesting. I want to know more about flowers. Tell me. You like flowers and you studied a lot?”

When I heard Kourne’s words, my feelings of discomfort immediately disappeared.

“Oh, leave it!”

◆

Then I walked in the flower garden with Kourne, conveying my knowledge of flowers.

Well, at first, he talked about his knowledge of flowers and flowers, but on the way, Kurune came to listen to each flower language.

I know the flower language I heard from Flora and the flower language that I use everyday, but I do not know the flower language that I do not use very much.

Most of the time, one flower has more than one flower language. I started learning about flowers and couldn’t compete.

Looking at me, Kurune was laughing happily, saying, “I’m not studying enough.”

It was the moment I thought I would be able to answer slurply no matter what I had the next opportunity. At the same time, I realized how vast my knowledge of flora flowers was.

After talking like that, we ate a Flora bento under a tree in the flower garden.

Me and Kourne tasted it, and now I’m taking a break.

Looking up, you can see the blue sky between the branches of the tree.

It was as clear as it could be, and in the distance, soft white clouds were floating around.

Clouds move as if they represent a slow flow of time.

The occasional breeze is pleasant, passing by to deliver the sweet scent of flowers.

Krone’s ponytail sitting next door shook.

“… It’s a really nice place. I can understand why Aldo fell in love with this flower garden.”

“right?”

I’m very good at answering Kourne, who spins words quietly.

Then, after Kurune smiled and answered “yes,” I slowly opened my mouth.

“What do Kourne think about this village?”

“It’s a very nice village. The nature is rich and the scenery is beautiful and the food is delicious. Even though it is countryside, the clothes are fashionable, the villagers are very kind and they are very kind to me who are not residents.”

“I see”

“The kids were just fine and it was fun just being with them. It’s been a long time since I played with magic like that.”

The expression of Kurune who laughs while saying so seems to be really fun, and it can be clearly seen that he liked Nordende. That makes me happy and naturally softens my expression.

Then Kourne slowly looks up into the air and speaks quietly.

“… I became a teacher at a magical school in the royal capital, but it was completely different from what I expected. I just wanted to teach children magic, but the customs and pride of the nobles got in the way. I couldn’t even do that. ”

I was expecting it from the poisoning of Kurune, but did it happen like that?

The members of the Dragon Slayer, now popular in the kingdom, are quite renowned. For the nobles with high pride, the appearance of celebrating the commoners was probably not very interesting. I heard that the power of the aristocracy had weakened since we started playing, and it was likely that it was hitting Kourne tightly as a reaction.

When I was thinking about that, Kurune, looking up at the air, turned his gaze.

“I’m angry every day by my courteous boss, and Aldo is questioned by the nobleman who says where.”

“… Ah, I think the latter is really bad.”

I’m really sorry about that and I can only laugh.

“Do you think it’s really bad?-The aristocrats are constantly asking me every day. You know your boss, too?”

While saying so, Kourne pokes my cheeks with her fingers.

Oh, I’m angry. The last word is a joke, but I understand that about 70% are serious.

“Aldo disbands the party and goes to the countryside, and Keel leaves the country saying he would travel around the nations. Elliott marries his aristocratic daughter, and all of my men are heartless.”

Kurune’s words are stuck and my chest hurts.

When you say that, you can see how well the party men are on their own.

No, but Kourne went to the magical school road with Kourne, isn’t it a problem? I was afraid to say, but I could understand that it made him worse.

Because my outrageous behavior affects everyone the most.

With that in mind, he apologized for the familiar words, and was not satisfied with Kourne’s satisfaction.

“Well, I mean, while I was spending my days in such a way, I thought what was the cause of my illness.”

Gee, the cause. Well, that’s right.

“Is it relaxing in the countryside? I imagined all sorts of things and suddenly remembered the adventurers.”

“Is that a village you dropped in during the quest?”

Suddenly, Kourne happily teaches children a magical trick.

Every time he visited a rural village, he showed his children magic and taught magical children. I had a lot of fun and I remembered it.

“Yes, that’s right. Just like I did in the village I went to when I was an adventurer, I wonder if I can teach children magic and study freely. What I want to do is have fun and teach magic. I thought I didn’t have to be a royal city, so I quit my teacher at Magic Academy. ”

“… I see. I heard that and I was convinced.”

I thought it was half-impressed that Kourne came here and opened a magic classroom. But now I know clearly that Kurune has something he wants to do, and he is trying to do it while he is aware of it. That made me happy.

“Is it fun to be a magic teacher here?”

“Yes! I’m convinced!”

Kourne was answering energeticly to my question.
