"…That's not it. It's not like I forgot. I do feel bad about it. But… thanks for forgiving me."
Seeing him like this, Qiong Xing could not help but feel that Albe had really changed.
"You're welcome."
Qiong Xing did not know what the others thought of Albe now, but to him, he was already an irreplaceable member of their family.
He understood that Albe would not hurt anyone without reason, and that he would never try to attack Qiong Xing like he once had.
"If Albe isn't around, then next time I fall into a hole in a dungeon, I won't have anyone to drag down with me."
"Hey!? And you're just assuming I'd get dragged along!?"
"Hehe, I'm joking. Just joking. …Probably."
After finishing selecting their rewards and buying ingredients for dinner, they left the town.
"Waaait just a moment!"
"..."
"Eh? No way, wait, w-wait, p-please wait! Qiong Xing!"
"Hm?"
