I Would Like To Live A Different Life If I Could Go Back In Time - Episode 72

“Lady Yuria!!!……　…　…”

One day, a message spell from Eme suddenly came in. She seemed very confused, and I couldn’t make out much of what she was saying.

It seems something happened to Eme.

“Eme, I’m heading over now.”

I had just finished my classes and was working on my master’s assignments in the usual room.

“Master, it seems something happened to Eme. I’m going to the inn for a bit.”

“Understood. If there are any problems, contact me immediately.”

I closed the book with a thud, placed Lord Randolph, whom I had been holding, back on the bed, and then hurried straight to the inn where Eme was.

Why don’t you metastasize?

You might have noticed, but I haven’t used teleportation magic yet. I think I could, but I’m scared of failing. Both the teacher and the master say it’s still too early for me, so I won’t push myself.

I rushed into the inn. In the inn’s dining hall, several adventurers were talking to Graham.

Emma has an air about her as if she’s on the verge of losing her composure.

“Emé! Are you okay!?”

When I called out, all eyes turned towards me at once.

“What’s wrong?”

“Marron and Rena have disappeared!”

“Missing? Both of them at the same time?”

“W-well… I asked Maron and Rena to do the shopping as usual, but it seems they were called by someone and left their things behind, and they haven’t come back.”

It’s already getting dark, so it’s not the time for children to be out and about. But I can’t believe that Maron and Rena, two kids I consider to be so capable and responsible, are still wandering around at this hour.

“Eme, for now, I’ll go look for the two of them. Graham, the guests’ meals aren’t ready yet, right? Both of you, back to work.”

“That’s not how it works!”

“Don’t worry. The other day, my master taught me a search spell! I’ll definitely find the two of you.”

I entered Maron’s room, took the notebook I always use, and returned to Eme.

The adventurers who were at the inn seem to be people who have finished their treatment at the clinic and are now staying here. I heard that one of them witnessed the two leaving.

It was said that “he was talking to a boy who came out of a noble’s carriage.” The carriage had no family crest, so he couldn’t tell who it was.

If they are taken away by the nobles, Eme and the others have no way to pursue them.

As expected, I have no choice but to search for it myself.

Place Marron’s notebook on the cafeteria table and begin the incantation. Then, a magical circle appears on the notebook, and a smoke-like substance resembling a red thread gently rises from it. At the same time, exclamations of awe can be heard from the adventurers.

“Eme, I’m going to follow this.”

“Then I’ll go as your bodyguard.”

“Graham, I’m going alone. I’m strong, and if it’s a noble, I’m the only one who can handle it, right? I’ll keep in touch, and if it seems dangerous, I’ll come back immediately.”

“……Okay. I don’t want you to overdo it.”

I started walking along the red line with my notebook in hand. The sun is gradually beginning to set.

You should hurry.

I hurriedly made my way towards the line. After about thirty minutes of walking, I arrived in front of a building.

“Th-this is…”
