A Chronicle of Life in a Different World

It was the five men on horses who welcomed the Reus back to the town of Speranza. Each stood up with a spear in his hand and a sword in his waist, wrapped in metal armor. Some people can feel the magic of about two people, and it is presumed that they are skilled at just watching the behavior of standing up.

The men were waiting in front of the west gate of the town of Speranza, and although they were slightly surprised to see Reurus and Natalia, to be precise, they immediately returned their expressions to the serious thing and got off the horse, and the representative and the man they thought they wanted spoke of "business”.

"Adventurer Reurus, we are your messengers on the count."

"... eh?

Should it be water in your sleeping ear or a blue sky thunderbolt? Throwed with unexpected words, Reurus blinked puzzled.

"What about the syllable... that syllable?

Reurus pondered with confusion as to whether Natalia became a baron and Collard became a quasi-bar. But I am deeply wondering why this is happening to me.

The representative man nodded heavily as to what he thought of the reaction of Reurus.

Sure. Your accomplishments are acknowledged and recited to the Baron. "

…………

Reurus' confusion has grown even deeper here. Did you hear the representative man wrong, or did the mysterious translator who has been taking care of you since you were born in this world abandon your job? If this were a battle, it would have been a lethal revulsion.

(Sylas... am I the Baroness? I mean, my achievements... are not aristocratic or anything...)

"This is... what an interesting story I've heard."

The voice of Natalia echoed as he tried to block the heart of Reurus. The voice was cold, and I heard a frightening voice of "hi" and collard from behind, but Reurus pretended not to hear it.

"It's Natalia-Barrow-Marelli-Amendora. The messenger of King's Landing forgot his manners in a short while to get down to business without even greeting the lord."

Natalia asks with a voice tone that is pale on the surface but reveals that she is angry. Reurus realized that it was not an act but a genuine anger, closed his mouth and watched what happened.

"I'm sorry about this. For a few minutes, we were distracted by a rare celebration."

"... so? Do you know nothing about me, lord of this land, and recite the Reurus of the“ Nation ”? Not a knight, but a quasi-bar? Where the hell did this come from?

While realizing that Natalia is angry, the representative man does not change his expression. As for the four men behind them, some of them were scratching cold sweat, but none of them broke their faces.

The representative man takes two letters out of his pocket and brings one of them to Natalia.

"Recommended by" Multiple Nobles ”and approved by the court and His Majesty the King."

"... what is it?

When Natalia receives the letter, she checks the back before cutting the seal. There was a seal stamped on it, and a closer look revealed that it was a royal crest.

Natalia herself is a crest that she has seen many times. The crown was crowned with a dragon and the flower with a sword. The emblem belonged to the royal family - the king himself.

If forged, it is a substitute for death rather than tribal annihilation. Natalia, who therefore decided it was authentic, opened the letter by sending the wind without crushing the wax.

…………

Natalia reads the letter silently, but as she pursues the text with her eyes, her eyebrows drop in between.

(It's unusual for a samurai to have that look on his face... where are all the nobles? Hector in the town of Lemona... no, it's impossible at the right time)

Reurus, who keeps thinking while Natalia reads the letter.

Though a feat, it would not have been included with respect to the slaw the other day. It hasn't been half a month since the battle ended, and even if you report to King's Landing, it will only take half a month lightly to return.

Even if you shorten your time with a fast horse, it should take a long time for the royal family and court to deliberate from there. Reurus doesn't have an episode in mind, but it's not supposed to be a top priority for an adventurer's accomplishments.

(There were no such signs when we went to King's Landing before... that is, after we returned from King's Landing, have we decided in the last six months or so? However, even if it is, it means that no information has been conveyed to you at all.....)

As far as Reurus knows, Natalia is an excellent woman not only in terms of force but also in terms of tactics. It is strange to say how far it is from the King's Capital and how busy it was to develop Baron Amondola's territory, but it was not informed at all.

(And then... New scams... are you trying to frame me? Or is he after you?

It was a realuse that thought about who would gain by making himself noble, but I don't know much about the thinking of royalty and nobility in this world.

As you can see when you look at Natalia, they are detours and pointing at each other with dozens of effective hands. Reurus, which was only a civilian in the previous life, is a world beyond comprehension.

(I don't know... it's easy to say that the enemy trying to frame me is just acting weird...)

With that in mind, Reurus observes the knights and the men who stand up, but although he is nervous about Natalia's anger, there is no backlash. Especially since the representative man is accustomed to the scene, he is so proud to wait for Natalia to finish reading the letter.

The men behaved the same way, but Reurus speculated that the opponent was just a human being because Vaniel was disappearing sometime.

It is Vanille's stance to put some on the shoulders of individuals, but not to the "human world” as much as possible. From that point of view, it was highly likely that the opponent was truly a messenger from King's Landing.

In fact, the men were Gregorians, and they didn't hear about Slaus, they planned something, and they showed up in the town of Speranza. Although Vanille disappeared, Tina was behind Reurus, and seeing the men showed no reaction. Men are also so focused on Reurus and Natalia that they hardly even look at others.

The rest was a reflection of Reurus, but even though the men in front of me were all skilled, there was a “smell” that seemed to be fighting the Orthodox way. I didn't go out with him so innocently, but I felt something similar to Carlo, a knight who had a mock battle in King's Landing.

(However, if you're a decent knight, you can't understand that you ignore him and try to talk to me....)

If you talk to Natalia first and then you talk to Reurus about the Syrah, the men were the first to talk about it.

(In Baron Amondola's territory, it feels like "the law"... what would you do if you were killed for being rude?

Of course, Natalia would never kill a messenger from King's Landing without asking questions, but the chances are not zero.

(Hmm... I don't know...)

If the monster is the opponent, it will be slaughtered, but if it is the opponent who is good at the scheme of the aristocrats, it will be good for Reus. I have learned a little about common sense in this world, but I know too little about nobility to predict.

While the men's attention was on the way to Natalia, Reus slightly changed his position and approached Collard. And I whispered to the men so they wouldn't hear me.

"Mr. Collard, I don't know what's going on, but is this a good story to say no?

Even if I was told that I would recite to a quasi-bar, I would decline to "refrain" as a reus. Obviously there were signs of trouble and I didn't think I could live as a nobleman no matter how I scratched my feet.

"It'll be difficult... At least if Baron Amondola was completely on track, I might have been able to say no, but even in that state, it's hard to say no."

Really?

"Hmm. I don't know about the letter, but I thought you said it was a recommendation from several nobles? The royal family and the court have approved it, and if we refuse, the people involved will be disgraced. Especially if it comes from the people who recommended it, it will make you angry before confusion."

"... that's not what I'm saying in front of Mr. Collard, but if I can live in this town with everyone, I don't need a position."

It was a word I didn't want to say to Collard, who dreamed of becoming a quasi-bar, but what was important to Reurus was his friends in the abandoned city of Laval, the town of Speranza, where they were going to live, and Eliza, who were not interested in their position or power.

Conveying it quietly to Kohlrad, Kohlrad sighed.

"People have their own ideas, and what they want is different. I have nothing to say to you, even if you do not seek your position or power."

"Mr. Collard...."

Without being angry, Reurus shook his voice as touched by Collard's flat words.

"Ah, no, wait. A little... yes, I'm just a little jealous, or I don't even feel like it..."

"Mr. Collard...."

Reurus shook his voice with regret as he murmured as he wandered his gaze.

"... I see."

And as soon as the conversation between Reurus and Collard ended, Natalia made a small voice. The more so, I don't think that the emotions put into my voice with such convincing words are really true.

"What else can I do for you?

"No... then, this letter is addressed to you, Lord Reurus."

A representative man sends a letter, and Reurus receives it with courtesy. Then the men joined Natalia and thanked her before riding the horse and running away.

(Speaking of messengers, you're back... is there anything you need in the letter?

Reurus opened the letter with that in mind. I thought it would be more exalted if it was a messenger, but Reurus couldn't judge what was right.

(Hmm... hmm?

As the messenger man said, a circular about the Syrah was written in the letter. The worthless modifications are probably scattered around, but to sum up, "Come to King's Landing after performing the ritual of the Syrah."

The exact date and time was not written, but it was written to come to King's Landing as soon as possible and by the end of the summer.

(Now it's past spring and before summer... it's about May in my previous life, so I can afford about three months in time...)

The climate is not accurate because it is different from Japan's predecessors, but it is not so pressing as to have to travel to King's Landing even today and tomorrow.

"In the meantime, I'll suspend the training. Reurus... and Collard, I need to talk to you."

However, even though time was running out, I was unlikely to be able to be optimistic given Natalia's low voice tone and hardness.
