“But still…why is it always me…wahhhh, hic… The world is so unfair…”

Less than an hour after that cheery toast, Jade was rubbing Alina’s back as she whined to him, thoroughly drunk at his side.

“You sure are a lightweight, Alina…”

For someone who had started drinking so aggressively, Alina was face down on the counter by the time she emptied a single mug. Well, they said that alcohol got to you faster when you were tired, so perhaps she wasn’t operating at full capacity.

“It seemed like she was pretty exhausted,” said the barman.

Accepting the water the barkeep offered him, Jade held the mug carefully, shaking Alina’s shoulder as she snoozed away. “Drink some water, Alina, then we’ll head home. Can you get up?”

When he addressed her, Alina lifted her head. Exhausted from continuous overtime, she stared at Jade in a daze, cheeks flushed from liquor for a while. Just then…

“Shroud?” she muttered.

“Huh?” Jade was momentarily startled to be called a name he’d never heard before.

But it seemed that Alina believed that Jade was someone called Shroud. She latched onto his arm. “Shroud… What the heck? What a relief… You came back…”

“Hey.” Jade’s mind went completely blank for a moment, but then he got his bearings. By the time he realized what was going on, he was grabbing Alina by the shoulders. “Heeeey, who is that?! A guy?! Is that a man’s name?! Who the hell is he?!” He pressed her for an answer, ignoring the very kind look the barkeep was giving him that seemed to say, Oh, too bad for you.

But she didn’t answer, wearing the happiest smile he’d ever seen on her. “Shroud…you know…I became a receptionist…”

“L-like I said, who the heck is—?”

“I’ll always be waiting…for you to come take a quest from me…”

“…!” Jade froze up as he listened to Alina’s delirious ramblings.

Then she dozed off again. Watching her peaceful sleeping face, Jade struck on a certain possibility.

Despite having the incredible power of a Dia skill, Alina didn’t even consider a change in career. Even though it was clear to anyone that she’d have guaranteed success if she became an adventurer, she was fixated on being a receptionist.

Could it be the real reason for that was…

“…Are you waiting for this Shroud person…?”

Jade got the now silent woman on his back. The barkeep took pity on him and said he didn’t need to pay, but Jade forced the man to take the money and left Noct Bar late that night.
