All-rounder Healer Chapter 28: Solicitation, Thinking, and Responding

　We spent the next few minutes talking about each other and making small talk.

　Mel is in a better mood.

　And when the conversation died down, Dan began to say this with a serious face.

“Hey… Rook, you don’t have a party? Also, you said you were willing to join a party, right? …Would you like to join our party? Mel and Rocky also think it’s great, right?” (Dan)

　With that said, Dan looked at all of us.

　From the perimeter, I heard “If I knew that he could use such magic, I would have invited him first” or “I don’t think it’s necessary for the greenhorns to have a healer.”

　The rubberneckers seem to be getting rowdier.

　Mel replied first.

“It’s good! If you have recovery magic, you are very welcome!” (Mel)

　After that, Rocky, who gave a little more thought, nodded and said, “I think it’s a good idea.”

　I was a little surprised at the sudden invitation.

　I didn’t expect that to happen.

　No, if recovery magic is rare, isn’t this scenario inevitable?

　Hmmm, could this be a blessing in disguise? I was thinking about joining the party.

　We’ve already talked a bit, and I felt they weren’t bad people. Also, after a long time, I talked to someone of my own age on equal footing, laughed, and enjoyed it. I wanted to have fun with them again.

　I feel that is enough.

　But I feel like I have to think more carefully.

　Hmm… I don’t think I can give an answer right away.

　How can the protagonists of stories answer immediately? It seems impossible to me.

“May I think about it more? I’ll give my reply tomorrow.” (Rook)

　The next morning, I woke up to the sound of the tavern master rumbling on the first floor as he began to prepare food.

　I’ve been waking up to this sound every day since I started staying at this inn.

　But today was the last time.

　Yesterday, I went back to my room and thought about various things.

　However, when I thought about it everything from the very beginning, the answer was surprisingly easy.

　First of all, life in this village has been stable, for a very simple life. But if I want to do anything more than this, I have to go out to a bigger city.

　And I want to see more of this world.

　I felt the need to belong to a party because I was a healer.

　Those guys who invited me to their party.

　I think they are good guys.

　The place they are based is a big city, and I’m going there.

　When I thought about it in that order, I realized that I didn’t need to hesitate.　The answer was right in front of me.

　And I decided to join their party.

　Leaving the room, going down the stairs, and walked to the bar on the first floor.

　Every day was like this, I buy a light wine here and put it in my water bottle before going out.

　Nobody drinks well water straight, and other adventurers buy this or ale, so I’m just copying them.

“Master. I’m going to the other town today. Thank you for your help.” (Rook)

　I said before bowing lightly.

　In the end, I said goodbye to the tavern keeper.

　I’d only been in this village and this inn for about two weeks, but it was the first place I’d landed, and I’d grown attached to it because it was a peaceful village. Saying goodbye like this made me feel lonely.

　When Master confirmed that he heard me, he lightly waved one hand then said, “…Oh, please stay again,” and returned to his work.

　After saying goodbye, I turned my heels and started walking.
