Synopsis
He had intended it to be just one month.
Alt, the guildmaster of “Wings of Dawn”—one of the top adventurers’ guilds in the capital—decided to set out on a solo journey for the first time in a long while.
He wanted to see the world.
He wanted to eat delicious food.
He wanted to adventure freely, just like in the old days.
That was the lighthearted mindset he had.
But before he knew it, five years had passed.
Waiting for Alto upon his long-awaited return to the capital were the companions who had once founded the guild with him.
Leona, now one of the kingdom’s strongest swordswomen.
Serena, renowned as the Great Holy Maiden.
Lilia, the genius mage.
And Mia, the beastwoman who had been closer to him than anyone else.
But they were no longer the companions Alto once knew.
“We won’t let you go anywhere this time.”
“We’ll keep a close eye on you next time.”
“We’ve already put measures in place to prevent you from running away.”
“We’ll be together forever, right, Master?”
It seems that the five-year gap has made their affection for him just a little… no, quite a bit more intense.
This is a romantic comedy about the return of a former guild master who set out on a journey intending to be gone for just one month, and his former comrades, who now harbor an overwhelming amount of affection for him.
