Chapter 12: A Clue ~Iino Yuna’s POV~

After reuniting with Jinguuji in Viscount Bann’s castle, I headed out to link back up with Gordon and the knights of the Holy Order’s Second Company.

“Welcome back, Miss Iino,” Gordon greeted me as I arrived at the inn we’d selected beforehand.

“I’m back, Sir Gordon. Have there been any developments?”

“Please listen to this. We’ve acquired information about a savior. What’s more, they are in very close proximity to here.”

Gordon looked excited. He immediately signaled to have a map spread across his table and began telling me about the new information.

“There are eyewitness accounts of a savior staying in this village here. After that, the information moves to this village. It’s right next to the one we’re in now,” he said, his thick finger tracing along the map. “Normally, we would start by passing the information to the First Company, but it’ll be faster to go there ourselves. We may finally have a lead on the fake savior.”

“I’m surprised,” I muttered. “That’s where I planned to go next.”

“What?”

The village Gordon had pointed out was the one where, according to Jinguuji, I could find some former exploration team members. It was a bit of a shock, but after thinking about it logically, that village was close to the town we were staying in now. It wasn’t strange that Gordon’s group had acquired information on it. I went on to tell him about how I’d met Jinguuji at Viscount Bann’s castle and of what Jinguuji had told me.

“I see. So that’s what’s going on? Not a fake, but real saviors. Forgive me,” Gordon said, looking somewhat ashamed.

“It’s fine. You didn’t know,” I said, then pointed to the map. “There’s a Dark Woods close to this village. They probably went there to protect the villagers from monsters.”

“Ooh, I’d expect nothing less of the hallowed saviors,” one of the knights said with a sigh of admiration.

“This has nothing to do with the fake savior,” I said, looking around at the others, “but I’d like to inform them of the situation. If they know about it, they’ll have a better chance of doing something if someone accuses them of being fakes. How about it?”

I was a little worried they wouldn’t go along with it, but Gordon nodded deeply.

“Of course. We do not wish for the great saviors to be subject to unjust criticism either.”

“Thank you very much.”

Things went off without a hitch, and we packed up within the day and headed out toward the village in question.

The manamobile clattered about on our way there.

“You seem to be in a good mood,” Gordon suddenly said from the seat next to mine.

“Huh?”

I looked back at him in confusion. The other knights riding with us were all smiling at me. It was only then that I realized that I’d been humming quietly in rhythm with the shaking carriage.

“Ah...” My cheeks got hotter, and I averted my eyes. “Ha ha. I might’ve cut loose a little.”

Up until now, we’d been chasing rumors, but we’d hit several dead ends.
