As soon as my speech ended, I involuntarily looked at the head of Toraman, whom I was carrying on my back, that had fallen onto my shoulder. I guess I was afraid he'd heard me call Rimel 'beautiful'.
"I had never thought about it like that, Big Bro Max!"
Fortunately, the young girl was just focusing on our main topic without misunderstanding the word I said sincerely. Since I held the leader position, I would realize that I shouldn't make sharp outbursts or moves from now on; otherwise, there was a high chance my teammates would think these were my fixed ideas.
"The ones around here really feel like child's play to me now, hurry up a bit, let's advance further inward!"
I was just about to gain a bit of understanding amidst these troublesome situations when, bless him, our party's tank, Mr. Sukrucuk, came and rained on our parade again.
"It's time Rimel, wake up that chubby boy, or I swear my back is going to give out!"
