A Chronicle of Life in a Different World

Episode 489: Disturbance Part 2

Slightly back in time, the location changes to Reurus' home.

It was a realuse heading to Corona alone, but Eliza and the others who dropped it off looked at each other.

"Mr. Reurus, are you feeling a little weird?

It is Meer who raises such questions. I understand that you left Dragon Slasher and armor in the abandoned city of Laval, but I was very concerned about the expression of Reus when I left the house.

"Hmm... something's wrong with me."

"... it was weird."

Eliza and Neddy agree with Meer's question. But after hearing those three conversations, Sarah leaned her head and pointed at the door.

"Should we go after them? Let's go after them! Reurus, I want to talk to Corona too!

"I agree with you....."

Eliza nodded at Sarah's words, but took her arm to avoid running ahead on her own. It was the mountains that wanted to chase Reurus, but I was wondering if it would be good to chase him because he said, "I'll thank Corona for taking care of me while I'm away."

"You wouldn't be angry if we followed you, would you, Reurus? Corona's not mad, is she?

Sarah protested with her cheeks inflated, but Eliza and the others did not move. Meer also grabbed Sarah's arm with a bitter smile, capturing her from both sides with Eliza so she wouldn't run off on her own.

As for Eliza and Meer, I am concerned that Reurus is acting strange. But it also made me feel wrong to stop Reurus and Corona from going out together.

I don't think Corona would be angry with her personality, but if she was in the opposite position, she would be angry. It was no doubt angry that Eliza was analyzing herself.

Meer was in a different mood than Eliza, but I still don't want to be disturbed by the two of us going out with Reurus.

"Er... but the revulsion seemed strange, don't you worry?

"I'm not worried if they say I'm worried...."

"That's... yeah..."

"... worried"

If you ask me if I'm worried, I'll have to say I'm worried about Eliza, Meer, and Neddy. Still reluctant to tell Eliza that Sarah had come up with a brilliant idea, Sarah held hands together.

"Yes! Reurus will notice if we follow him, and stop him when he can't, right?

Eliza and Reurus have a "contract," so if they don't get far away or dive underground, the magical connection will quickly determine their location. So Elizabeth, who looked at Sarah's words, decided to leave the house with the condition.

…………

Tina, who was supposed to be watched by Reurus, followed four people silently. Please swallow the word "let go".

If Reurus is “as usual," he will immediately realize that if he calls directly, he will fly the "Idea Call." That's what Elizabeth and the others were after, but, contrary to expectations, Reurus didn't show any reaction.

Four people face each other behind Dominic's restaurant and tilt their necks. I think something's wrong, but I don't know what it is.

Wait a while like that. Reurus and Corona go outside the store entrance. At that time, Eliza and the others, who had seen the corona dressed up and the strange Reurus as usual, looked at each other again.

"I guess this is... better not to be chased."

"What? Why?

Eliza, who sees Corona's costume and a smile of joy, says she shouldn't go after them, even though she's a little dissatisfied.

But without knowing why, Sarah seemed curious, and Eliza turned to Meer. and nodded to each other.

"That's because Sara-chan is wild.

"... Nogure?

Neddy leans his neck because he doesn't know why, but Eliza and Meer stop and stop honestly. Sarah was about to rush out, but Eliza and Meer grabbed Sarah's arm again, lifted it from left to right, and started turning back to the house.

"It looks like Corona was cleaning for me, but I think we'd better keep it clean."

"Well... when I heard we were back, Sharon was about to take a bath tonight."

"Eh, hey, why? Hey, why not?

Ignoring Sarah who was dragged and disturbed, Eliza and the others returned to their homes. There are many things I think, but we can't let ourselves get in the way of Corona.

Eliza and the others decided to stop chasing Reurus and Corona.

I didn't know if that was the right decision.

"Quasi... male, baron?

And Corona was murmuring to repeat the words from Reurus.

I leaned my neck and thought it was a mistake, but I have been working at Dominic's restaurant for many years. I was confident in my hearing so I wouldn't miss orders from customers.

Baron Quasi-Naristocratic like the Knight, but if there is a difference from the Knight, it is likely to be hereditary. If you want, you can rule a town as big as the abandoned city of Laval, and if it's smaller, you can get territory.

Naturally, there are very few people who can be quasi-bars because they can't give pompoms to many people. We need to mention whether we have contributed to the country for many years, or whether we have made outstanding achievements, or both.

Corona had never heard of it, such as jumping over a knight and suddenly becoming a quasi-bar.

“In that position," Reurus says.

"Ah... thank you so much..."

It takes tens of seconds to comprehend, and yet it takes a long time to say congratulations. Hearing that, Reurus wandered his gaze as if he had watched Corona.

"No, it's not over yet, and if you can refuse, I'd like to say no... but it seems you can't refuse because there's a shameful relationship..."

Reurus, who saw Corona's expression, raised and lowered his hands.

From the point of view of Reurus, the narration to the Baron is only a recognition of the extent to which unnecessary trouble has rolled in. Marquis Sardari may have generously recommended Reus as a knight, but with all sorts of temptations there, he swelled up to the position of a quasi-bar.

Natalia can't say no, but I want to refuse if possible as a realuse. It's about that.

That's why I shook it as a light topic. And Corona's reaction to that story was dramatic.

"Really... Mr. Reurus is going to be a nobleman."

Corona squeezes the hem of the skirt and leans down.

"Your nobility... it's not like that, and if you go to King's Landing, things may change."

Reurus denied it in a hurry.

For Reurus, there is Natalia, who became a baron as a close aristocracy. As a quasi-bar, there was a “familiar” aspect because Collard was in the same position. But not for Corona.

Natalia and I can be as close to each other as we deserve, but for the common people (Corona), nobility is inherently on the clouds. No matter how many quasi-bars fall compared to the original aristocracy, there is no significant difference in position.

"Anyone who recommended it seems suspicious about the people riding it. I don't know what you're thinking, and maybe I'll settle down as a knight instead of a quasi-bar...."

Reus himself didn't know why he was giving such an explanation. However, when I realized that Corona seemed sad and looked like she was about to cry, my voice came out naturally.

"Even a knight is an amazing person recognized by the country..."

"Yes... maybe it is."

Collard's face is too deep behind Reurus' head. When I compared myself to Collard, I felt that even the knight's position was inappropriate.

(A man named Marquis Sardari withdrew his recommendation...) Your Majesty? It's impossible because it's approved by....)

When I look at Corona's expression, I wonder if I don't have to accept the status of a quasi-bar. However, even if they do, there is a possibility that they will be able to complain from King's Landing to Natalia.

(Ask Sofia if she's involved with the spirituals... and the court nobles? Dammit, this can't be done anyway....)

I can't think in a hurry. Though I have to say something, I can't put it into words.

"Mr. Reurus... it's getting stronger and stronger, and I haven't had much time to see him lately, and I still thought..."

Like the upsetting Reurus, Corona also seemed to be in a bad mood. He is shaking his voice and looking for words to say.

"But... but I'm not... me..."

The force to grip the hem of the skirt becomes stronger. Corona shakes her shoulders and tries to say something.

"Oh, you were here."

I tried to block it, and my voice rang. Looking at Reurus as if he had been hit by his voice, Natalia, dressed in "everyday clothes”, stood with a suspicious face while choking on the smoke pipe.

"Corona... and Reurus were with you? Perfect."

N-na-nn You show up all of a sudden. What's the rush?

When Reurus cast doubt, Natalia frowned and looked upset.

"I suddenly showed up... and I just walked the road normally. I thought Corona was getting ready for the store at the moment....."

With that said, Natalia looks sideways at Corona's costume. Then he took his mouth off the sucked pipe and exhaled the purple smoke.

"It's not as hasty as it sounds. I thought we should check it out... but I'm afraid I'm interrupting."

"Ah, no, no... I can't believe I'm disturbing you..."

Corona shakes her neck small. When Natalia saw such a corona reaction, she now stared at Reurus's face.

"... Phew"

A murmur like confirming something. Natalia turned to Corona before Reurus could question it.

"Corona"

"Eh, ah... yes. What is it?

Didn't you think you'd shake the story, Corona opened her eyes with a little surprise. Natalia stared at the corona and asked.

"In a week or so, we're going to King's Landing... and you're not coming?

It was an unexpected offer for both Corona and Reurus. They blinked, but Corona, who had returned to me earlier, leaned her neck.

"... am I? But what should I do....."

"Sometimes I want you to take care of me, but when it comes to the future, I thought it would be better for you to eat the food of King's Landing."

Natalia asks if Corona's will is the only priority.

"I'd like you to study cooking at the same time... how about that? I also got permission from Dominic."

"But I can't open the store by myself....."

"It's okay around here. It'll be a maid practice, and I'll let Sharon help."

"To Sharon...."

Corona murmured as if she had been moved. Natalia spinned words against the uninterrupted corona.

"It's up to you, Corona... what are you going to do?

Natalia's gaze on the question was somehow directed towards Reurus.
