Adventurer's Guild Café: I Was Wrongfully Exiled by the Saint, So I Will Enjoy My Second Life with My Fluffy Friends-Chapter 2V .1 .5 - I’m going to the dungeon!?
“Uh... is that about me?”
“Yeah. What a troublesome beast.”
Kiril clicked his tongue and made a displeased face. Simon and the others also looked troubled.
Hmm. So, this gryphon wants to meet me for some reason?
Could it be that healing powers work on the gryphon as well?
“Gryphons can talk?”
That was the first thing I thought.
“They live pretty long, so it’s not weird if they can speak human language.”
Maybe Lulu will learn to talk once she grows up too.
“...If I go to the dungeon, will the problem be solved?”
When I asked everyone that, a subtle air filled the room.
“...I oppose it. I don’t think it’s a good idea to send Kuna to such a dangerous place.”
It was Gier who said that. He shook his head and wore a grim expression.
“Yeah, it’s dangerous, after all.”
Simon was also hesitating, murmuring.

“Well, maybe it’d be fine if it just dies on its own.”
“K-Kiril-san, that’s...”
I thought for a moment and then spoke to everyone.
“Um... If it’s alright with you, I’ll go to the dungeon. I definitely can’t go alone, though...”
Everyone looked a little surprised.
“If I can be of any help, I’d like to assist.”
“You don’t have to force yourself. It’s scary, isn’t it?”
Simon said that.
“That’s true... So at least, if I could go with someone, I’d feel more reassured...”
If they told me to go alone, I’d definitely be unable to do it. I’d probably die before even reaching my destination.
But if I were with skilled adventurers, I feel like it would be fine.
“Hmm. I see. Then I’ll accompany you.”
“! Simon is going?!”
Kiril was surprised.
“Well, I’m anxious, after all...”
“Wow, it’s rare for you to take action like that.”
“What are you saying? I always take action, you know?”
Simon said with a grin. Somehow, if Simon is with me, I feel like everything will be okay.
“I was a skilled adventurer once too. Kiril, you’ll come with us, right?”
“I will, but let me rest for a bit. I really don’t want to talk to that stubborn old man anymore.”
“No, no, let’s go as soon as we’re ready. Things like this don’t turn out well if you delay them.”
“Ugh, seriously?”
Kiril seemed quite fed up. It looked like he didn’t get along with the gryphon.
But if both of them are coming, I’ll feel more at ease.
“...I’ll go too.”
“Eh?”
To my surprise, Gier also offered his assistance.
“I still have the qualifications, and if it’s only for a few days, my main job should be fine.”
Gier is currently the leader of the Staff Knights, but it seems he was also an S-rank adventurer like Kiril in the past.
“But...”
“Normally, ordinary citizens aren’t allowed to enter certain dungeon levels. And I’m worried.”
Gier glanced at the cocky Kiril and Simon.
“If anything were to happen, it’d be problematic...”
“What do you mean by ‘anything’, huh?”
“...”
The two of them started bickering. As I watched them with a wry smile, Simon spoke.
“Well, we’ll bring a few other adventurers with us. Sure, the dungeon is dangerous, but try not to worry too much.”
Hmm, even so, I might still feel nervous...
“And with Kiril and Gier here, you’ll be safe. These two originally teamed up as a pair.”
“Eh!? Is that so!?”
I didn’t know that. Now that I think about it, Kiril did mention he had a partner before. So, that person must have been Gier. Both of them are S-rank, so it makes sense they would be well-matched as party members.
I had thought that Gier seemed to have opened up to Kiril and was interacting naturally with him... but that was the reason.
“Geez, what are you talking about?”
Kiril sighed, looking exasperated.
“Me and this guy, we’ve never gotten along and ended our partnership long ago. We might end up fighting again in the dungeon, and things could get really bad.”
S-such a thing... As I became flustered, Gier spoke in a slightly annoyed tone.
“I’m not going to the dungeon to fight with you. I’m going there to protect Kuna.”
“Hmm? I’ve always thought this, but Gier, you...”
When Kiril tried to say something with a smirk on his face, Simon interrupted him.
“Alright, alright. No more fighting. Now then, let’s get ready to go.”
With that, Simon winked at me, trying to reassure me.
