On the first day of the tournament, after the international tournament, I remember the back alley of Paris where I stopped for sightseeing.

Three-storey buildings line up to the back to sandwich narrow corridors.

Fire!

Straw and smoky people are evacuating. Against the flow of men, he went to the wild horse to a place where smoke could be silenced.

Fire and smoke erupted from the windows on the ground floor of the stone apartment. Oh, maybe I've never seen a fire before!?

I wonder if that room that burns the most is on fire. Because it is made of stone, the rate of fire spreading seems slow, but the smoke is terrible. A girl aged 7-8 is crying near the window. The grandmother next door also looked up at the room upstairs and could not help it.

"Is that room yours?

"Yes, my sister..."

"Eh!?

I looked at Max.

To sum up the story of panic and splitting lines, it seems that the girl's house is directly above the most burning room. My parents haven't left early in the morning because of work. When she woke up, she noticed that her 2-year-old sister had a fever and went to call her neighbor's grandmother, saying that she was already in this condition when she got back.

"I'm gonna go."

Max talks like he's going to pay for something. I shook my head.

"You can't. I'll go."

"Okay."

Without any futile questions, Max nodded instantly. The sooner you decide to do it, the sooner you act. He broke a window a little away and quickly sent me in.

If you're a regular knight here, or a normal man, you're going to make a decision to go on your own. You're not sending out a 12-year-old girl.

But Max is not lost for a moment and accepts my judgment. My uncle does, but I can only believe it will lead to the best results.

During the last ant raid, I was convinced.

They don't say anything, but they understand my words almost as prophecies. I was watched while I was unaware. I'm a little embarrassed, but I was so happy.

When I get inside, the smoke is already all over the building and my vision is pretty blocked, but I can breathe inconveniently. Max is doing something magical.

Rather than flames, the radiant heat of roasted walls makes the skin twitch and burn. But as it progresses, the water comes down and wets the passage and me.

Max is fully capturing my position with detection. I was not anxious because I used all the magic I could to follow perfectly.

Originally, Max would be better off if he went to rescue, regardless of ability or physical strength. No matter how much I train, I'm still at the average level. I can't compare it with a knight.

But you can't do this without me.

I rushed upstairs and looked for signs of children from the stairwell.

"Look, I knew you weren't here! Third floor!?

Determine immediately that they are not in the target room. Goes up further without hesitation.

He escaped the smoke and ran up. For a moment, he pushed through the third floor aisle without difficulty, opening the fourth door on the way and entering.

Walk straight through the stranger's room and open the closet.

A little girl was groaning as she cried.

"I found it. It's okay now."

Hold on tightly to the girl hugging me.

This is why I had to be. No one else could ever find this kid running around in the dark clouds.

Now, all we have to do is run. I opened the window nearby and jumped off the third floor at once.

"Max!"

"Aurai!

Max, who was already waiting under the window, fluffily and dangerously stopped me holding the girl in combination with magic.

Nice catch!

Look! This is Max's famous sidekick!! Too perfect and scary!!

Congratulations on handing over the girl to her family.

"Hey, Gladys, come here!

In the meantime, Max pulled my hand without putting his hair down and walked away from the crowd of wild horses.

I was pulled almost without asking a question to a less popular place.

"Yeah, what?

Point a stunned gaze at me asking.

Look what you're wearing.

As I was told, I glanced down.

The thin clothes adhered perfectly with water and the body line was rounded out, and the underwear was also sketchy up and down.

Oh, wow.

That's right, I can't be in public with this. No matter how cute a confident underwear is.

"Absolutely, that's why my skin is overexposed!

While complaining, by way of example, it uses some kind of clever magic combination technique to dry your hair and clothes. My brother-in-law is too capable.

I am truly sorry for being so exhausted.

"Thank you, Max. I have to give you a reward."

Soot still remains, but I managed to get it back out in public for now.

I think I've already received a reward.

As he answers my joke, Max thinks a little.

"If you're going to give me more, this is good."

Hmm?

She hugged me. Not the usual light hug, but a real hug.

I don't hate being hugged, so don't hesitate to turn your hands around your back. I knew it wasn't exciting, but it was very reassuring and pleasant.

It makes me feel bad that this kind of thing will be a reward.

"Hey, I love Max, but I don't like him that much.

"I know."

"I don't know if I'll like you anymore."

I see. Well, if you're in love with someone, tell me first. "

"I don't feel like I can fall in love with someone, so I may not fall in love with anyone for the rest of my life."

Then you can come to me.

"Even if I don't fall in love with you?

"It's okay because I'm in love. Never mind. Sweet."

I'll be clear. He likes me straight.

And yet, why can't I have love feelings? In Zachariah's lifetime, no one liked her with her heart shut.

If I like Max, I'm sure I'll be happy.

"You really have such a bad taste in women."

"Then there would be fewer enemies."

"You're the only one who likes me right now."

"Oh, I see. You just have to recognize it."

What are you talking about? He persisted in pursuing it, but he didn't answer any further questions. I just heard a slight voicemail because of the funeral. I don't understand the meaning. I've never felt anything like it before.

"Let's go get some clothes for now. That's not gonna be fun, is it?

As if to distract him, Max walked away and pulled my hand again.

Yes, I'm curious, but if I did, I'd run out of shopping time.

"I'll choose Max's clothes too! It's like I'm choosing you to be my uncle."

"Uncle again....."

As he walked, Max looked reluctant.
