As tension ran through the lobby area of the adventurer’s guild, that man suddenly showed up.

“What is this? What a coincidence it is to find you in the royal capital.” Shouzou placed a hand on Sharlo’s shoulder. “Are you perhaps here for a quest?”

“Oh, uh, yes I am. Actually—” Sharlo explained what had happened succinctly.

“I see. And so you are here looking for a quest that you can do on the way back. Then you’re in luck.”

As a question mark appeared above the head of everyone looking on, Shouzou paid them no mind and calmly approached Yuli and Hanna. Then he told them, “He’s Sharlo-kun, the one I told you two about.”

“Wha-?!”

“Geh!”

Both of them trembled in shock.

“Sharlo-kun, these two are customers of the guild who have come from a foreign country. This is Lady Hanna, and that’s Yuli-san, her escort.” Sharlo’s mouth fell open.

Without paying any mind to the state that the three of them were in, Shouzou nonchalantly declared, “Sharlo-kun, how about you escort these two to Treia? After that, you can stay on as their local guide. Of course, this will be processed as an official quest issued by the two of them.”

“What? Guide......?” Sharlo looked at the two “customers” uncomprehendingly.

Whereas Hanna was looking up at the ceiling while murmuring an enigmatic “oy vey!” Yuli was still trembling all over. As for her state of mind—

(This...... This rude and egoistic man is the one who I might be wedded to, oh God?)

—She was in the middle of cursing God just a little bit.

Several hours before Sharlo and Yuliana’s first meeting, Shouzou was in the royal villa, sitting across from the two so-called “envoys” from the empire. He had already seen through the fact that the attendant wearing a butler outfit who identified as “Yuli” was none other than Sharlo’s arranged marriage partner.

Marriage was something to be decided by the couple themselves. So was this not the perfect opportunity then? Since she had traveled such a great distance to come all the way over, then why not introduce them to each other?

So for the moment, Shouzou talked with them about the arrangements for inspecting the country without letting on that he had realized Yuli’s real identity. “—And because of that, I think it would be a good idea for you two to make the fortress city of Treia your base. Allow me to arrange for your accommodations. Naturally, we will shoulder all the costs.”

Shouzou had been addressing Hanna when talking, but it was Yuliana who replied. “Very well, we understand. However, there is no need to pay in advance on our behalf. We have enough to cover our own travel expenses.” Even though Shouzou had said “shoulder all expenses,” Yuliana rephrasing that into “pay in advance” was most likely her way of expressing that she “would not accept charity.”

Shouzou nodded. “Then lastly, as for the person who will serve as your guide—”

“Hm? Hold on. Sir Onigawara, are you not going to do it yourself?”

“My sincere apologies. I am unable to accompany you all hours of the day.
