530 Useful Story?
"Where do you plan on going next?"
I replied honestly to his question.
"Ah, I'm thinking of taking in the sight at the coliseum. I'm leaving today. Which way to go from here?"
"Fumu, that would be over there. On foot it should take... No, wait, I suppose you have that. It won't work as a reference."
Sir Lolengus guessed about our air trip as he turned to look at griffon.
(Well, I don't really mind going by air or land, I'm still riding on griffon either way.)
Traveling by air. We've already caused a huge uproar anyway. Rumors will spread regardless of what I do.
Might as well just give it up. I know that traveling by wagons doesn't stop me from getting into trouble.
I might as well pick the easiest path and reduce the amount of stress I'm getting.
'We have finished the preparations', the soldiers who took away the offenders reported back. Afterward, Sir Lolengus said his farewell.
"Do excuse me. I have to oversee these fools' trial and punishment. I will have to take my leave. Binota-kun, I'm sorry for all the commotion. I hope you continue working hard."
Sir Lolengus turned around and briskly walked away with the soldiers. It took a bit of time until Binota came back to his sense, 'Ha!?'.
"I-I'll go prepare breakfast."
Maid-san recalled her work and briskly walked to the kitchen.
Now that was all taken care of, I let out a huge yawn as I rubbed griffon's chin and waited for maid-san's cooking.

'Thank you for the meal', I immediately stood up after I was done.
"You've been such a great help. No really, I'm thankful about all those useful stories you told me."
I lowered my head a bit while saying my thanks.
"Likewise! That should be my line! Thank you so much! Just knowing that you exist has been such a huge deal to me!"
Binota excitedly drew closer, grabbed my hands and started swaying them around.
I smiled wryly. After all, 'useful' was only a lip service for the farewell.
In reality, not a lot of things he told me helped.
"Young master, you're short on time. Please get ready to work."
As maid-san reminded him, he reluctantly let go of my hands.
"I'll go on ahead. Thank you for the tasty breakfast."
Maid-san led me to the front door.
"Alright, griffon, can I count on you? I can huh, hold on a bit."
As griffon approached me, I took a mantle from my magic bag and put it on.
Meanwhile, griffon crouched down to let me get on him easily.
"Oh my goodness, it's so amazing actually watching how obedient griffon is with you!"
I don't get Binota's praise as he's seeing me off outside. What does he mean by 'actually'?
Thus, griffon gradually rose higher into the air.
"Please visit me anytime whenever you're close by! Stay safe! Let's meet again!"
Binota keep waving at me.
I lightly waved back at him and gave another instruction to griffon.
"Fly in that direction. Ah, take it slowly like you're strolling. Also, don't get so high, about that tall should do."
I pointed at the tallest building in the federation as we gradually left Binota's garden.
I could hear maid-san's voice behind me, 'Young master, you're running short on time'.
Thus began my third air trip. I did my best to tuck away the facts I learned this time in the corner of my head and focus on the coliseum.
The anticipation succeeded in soothing my mind.
