Oh, it's Patty.
What's she up to?

It looks like she's shopping.

I'll take this... and this.

Y-yes...

Hey, you!

Um, I hate to ask, but could you
perhaps be Aifread's granddaughter?
Your outfit is quite unique...

You see, there's been some
rumors going around lately.

Apparently there's been a girl that wears
the same outfit as Aifread, and she calls
herself his granddaughter.

...!

Huh? Granddaughter? Really...?

I knew it...

Uh... That'll be 450 Gald.

...

Um, well, this is hard to say,
but would you mind not coming
to my store anymore?

Because I'm Aifread's granddaughter...?

Uh, well, I don't really mind personally.
It's just that it makes the other
customers uncomfortable.

Huh? Wait... me?
Hold on a second!
I didn't mean to...

What do you mean? You're the one who said the store's
reputation would go down if we served the granddaughter
of the man who tarnished the honor of the guilds!

Well, come on! A guild's duty is to protect the people.
And she's the granddaughter of the man who violated
that duty by slaughtering countless civilians!

Th-that was...

What a bunch of nonsense.

W-what's with you?

What is this kid responsible for?
Did she herself do anything wrong?

It's okay, Yuri.
Don't get so worked up.
It's always like this.

Hey, Yuri's going out of
his way for you here.

There's no need to worry.
I'm leaving this town soon anyway.

Later!

Hey, I wasn't finished!

*Sigh*

Ugh, I swear...

Patty is Aifread's granddaughter?
What could this mean?

I've never heard anything about
that. I wonder if it's true?

Who knows? Still, I wonder
if this Aifread character is
really as bad as they say.

His guild lost credit due to the Black Hope
incident. After that, lots of people started
to talk badly about the guild's members.

I see.

Yuri? Do you think it's okay
to just leave her be?

We're talking about Patty here.
She's a tough girl.

Yeah. And more importantly, if
we keep the old man waiting,
he might stir up more trouble.

I guess so...
