"I've never been in a castle before."
Amako, a fox beast who looks up at the castle next to me and raises an exclamation. Take her. I was visiting an early morning castle yesterday, just like Rose told me.
I greet the guard just like I always do when I go in, then I go inside the castle. Immediately after entering, two maids greet us to the castle.
"Dear Usato... and take you, right? I will take you to King Lloyd.
"Usato was amazing."
"Don't be surprised, 'cause I'm aware I don't look good either"
I smile when I'm not used to it. [M] Walk straight through the passageway you are accustomed to and be led straight to the hall where the king is. When the maid opens the door and enters the prompted street, she tells Lord Lloyd and Sergio, a large number of knights and Mr. Siggles, Mr. Wellsey. And there was Kazuki and Senior Dog.
"Oh, you're here, Lord Usato."
"It's been days."
"Is she Amako?
Lord Lloyd's tender eyes are pointed at Amako next door. She was slightly freaked out, but nodded slightly looking at Master Lloyd.
"... well... now that we're all here, I'd like to talk about why we've got everyone together today. Lord Usato, I want you to listen where Lord Kazuki is."
"Yes, there you go, Amako."
"Ugh, yeah."
Were you nervous, tapping lightly on your shoulder, putting your pean and tail up. Look at this one and reply. I guess meeting a king of a country is a nervous thing, as far as I'm concerned, I haven't been too nervous anymore because I've seen him many times.
Travel with Amako to the edge of the hall where Senior Kazuki and Kazuki live.
"Hey, Usato-kun"
"Hey, Usato."
"Long time no see, you both look better than that."
I don't know, I think we've both changed a little in the last ten days. It seems trivial, but were you both in training... after all, because I heard you might be on a journey?
"The fact that everyone has gathered… it is about sending another letter requesting cooperation to another country. This concludes with the Minister, including me, as well as the Legion Leader… The second battle against the Demon King's Army has been painful compared to the first battle. The brave men who helped us were also at risk of death, and without the existence of a lifeguard, there would have been countless casualties."
Calm your expression, and once you cut your words there, Master Lloyd looks over the hall. I'll take a look at it lightly too, but no one has a look against the king's words... rather tight as he's prepared.
- You're really admired, because you're a straight Lloyd with no back surfaces, and a lot of people arrive. It then shaped one country and became the kind of country that embodied the character of the Lord, Lord Lloyd.
"Let's take action, too. Even if we are rejected, we must communicate and unite against the threat of the Demon King. Fifteen days from now, we're sending it to the vast majority of countries on the continent."
The vast majority of the continent, and then a lot of people can't move to come up with one letter.
Moreover, the first time he refused to cooperate, it may be seen that merely sending a letter would not be effective. So...
"Lord Inukami, Lord Kazuki -"
He who is in a special position is the brave one.
"And Lord Usato."
"Yes, this is me..."
Yeah, yeah, they call me by a name that's nodding, and it makes me shudder.
Apparently nobody disagrees with Senior Kamikami, Ichiki, and Mr. Siggles from where they are all snorting for some reason. No, I knew I'd send a letter, but in my case, I just said I'd be sent to a less influential country...
I try to say a word to the King as I overhear Amako whining, "Usato... it was amazing..."
"I'm sorry, my lords have been giving me so much trouble."
"No, we're important to the people of this country, so I'm happy to accept it."
"Hehe, can we go to different countries...... tough, but sounds like fun. Usato, you think so too, don't you?
"... Yes, that's right"
I have no objection to going, but I exhale a small sigh so that I can't get around to being entrusted with an important role.
Lloyd, who didn't know how I felt or happily broke my mouth, turns his gaze to me and Amako.
"I'm sorry, Lord Usato. But the place where the Lord sends the letters is somewhat special."
"Special...?
"I'll explain that later, but I can't... Now I've told everyone what to tell them. That concludes the meeting... but the brave men and Lord Usato, and Welsey and Siggles, stay here."
Master Lloyd cut off the conversation there and ended this meeting.
He leaves in a row, but me and Amako, and Senior Kazuki, Mr. Siggles and Mr. Welsey, didn't leave and stayed on the spot, pointing their gaze at Master Lloyd....... hmm? There are people I'm not as familiar with as the three of them... but who are they?
Leaning his neck, looking at those threesomes, his eyes wink at one of them. I wait for the king's word with the sentiment that he's someone who can feel somewhat friendly.
●
"First, Amako. Thank you for saving my country from the future of ruin."
"Huh!?
By the time so few people were there, Master Lloyd suddenly raised his head to Amako and released a word of gratitude. Both Sergio and Welsey panicked about Lord Lloyd's sudden actions, but Amako was the one who panicked the most.
"I couldn't say it publicly in front of everyone, but I don't want to repay you, but I want to help you."
"... then"
"The last place Lord Usato will have his writ sent is Miarak, the land of water"
"!... there 's-"
"A city on the water in the heart of a great river across this continent, far ahead of its opposite shore - the kingdom of the Beast Man"
Cheng Cheng, that's why Master Lloyd made it convenient for me to go to the land of the Beast Man in the name of sending me a letter to that country called Miarak...
"But it's a long way to go... I'm sorry Lord Usato..."
"It's also a favor from me, so let me take it with pleasure."
"... thanks"
Instead, this is the one I have to thank. I'm sure Lord Lloyd has made me struggle a lot to make this impossible wish come true, and I can't thank you enough.
... and is it a country situated on the water... is it not that big that it is on the river? Or is it that it is located in the heart of a big river as great as a lake...
"Now, as for the country that sends the writ... Alfi, you are to Lord Usato"
"Yes, I laid down! Master Usato and... you were Master Amako. This is Heh."
A woman dressed in scholarly clothes with flax hair tied to three knits urges us outside the hall.
This guy, you're the first person I've ever met. I've been to the castle many times, but I've never met anyone outside? Or is he someone who never accidentally looked at each other...
As I went out into the castle aisle, the woman walking in a good mood looked back at me and Amako with a bouncing voice.
"You've never seen me before. I'm Alfi, let me be the scholar you hold in this country. Ma, even when it comes to scholars, what we are studying is quite extensive, but simply put, we propose to Lord Lloyd the literature that leads to the development of this country as a single matter, or we are accumulating knowledge because of something... I mean, you can basically think of me as someone who feels free! This time I would like to tell you a whole story about the geography of the country to which Master Usato will give his writ. Oh, but it's not that hard. I think if you're careful with monsters and bandits because the roads are built properly, you'll be able to give them all in roughly a few months.
"Usato, this man has a long story"
Having finished talking about all the requirements early on in the arrow, Mr. Alfi is walking forward, laughing with Nico, even against Amako's words. You're a strong character, this guy. But I understood the requirements and everything. In short, you tell me a lot about the country and the geography this guy gives me.
Walking forward, Mr. Alfi walks towards the edge of the castle like I've never been before. By the time she came out to a place with few castle windows, stopping in front of a large wooden door, she smiled and turned this way, pointing her hand at the wooden door.
"Here - su. For once, it's a private room given to me, but I don't hesitate to come in because I think my colleagues probably use the other room."
"Ha..."
When I was guided into the room as I was guided, the sight of an awesome room that was stacked up to the point where a terrible amount of paper and books reached the ceiling was spreading.
To make our way, he prepares chairs and tables while paying for the paper and books scattered all over the floor by hand.
Confused, me and Amako sat in a chair, Mr. Alfi, who had fished for something like a bookshelf, had taken one large piece of paper out of a single large book and paid for it.
"Well, maps, maps, maps... this is it. Yeah, well, let me explain."
Miscellaneous maps spread to your desk? pointing to Mr. Alfi begins to explain the map.
"This kingdom of Ringle, where we now live, is the closest place to the demon kingdom."
He says so pointing to a sign away from a large green place, perhaps a plain zone where he fought the Demon King's Army. There are definitely no big countries nearby, although there are places around that seem to be forests and small villages.
"And the place where the Demon King ruled was on the other side of the big river through the plain zone, and they came over the river..."
"Cheng Cheng"
"Let me tell you at the beginning, the place where Usato and the brave men head is only supposed to be the same at the beginning"
"Same?"
If each one of us is going to give him a letter, shouldn't we go separately?
"I know I doubt it. But from the kingdom of Ringle, we need to go down a dangerous road on the road, so in a direction that puts the emphasis on safety, we ask you to go from a safe path, even if it is slightly farther away. So this is where the handover journey begins, from the magical city of Lukvis."
Lukvis, a magical city. Surely it was a place where there was one healing wizard in that country? Besides, I hear there's a beast man who hid Amako...
"Of course, I'll give the writ to Lukvis. Because there are some of the best contenders on the continent when it comes to magic. But please be careful with Usato because discrimination due to his magical qualities is also intense.... because I'm worried that you will inadvertently bust students when Rose teaches you healing magic."
Amako laughs coughingly at Mr. Alfi's words, who laughed two hellas as if they were tea eye-catching.
I'm not laughing.
"You're joking tough. I'm not that monstrous."
"... Huh?
Now I heard a voice next door that looked unexpected but ignored it. I am a human being. [M] I'm not powerful enough to fly a human like Rose like a pinball, and I'm not a livestock enough to cure a fainted human being and make him run.
Totally, it's funny how the lifeguards look like me and Rose.
"Calling Lord Rose a monster sounds like someone with a reputation. Now, if you give me a letter in Lukvis, you have to give it to three countries."
"Three is four when you add the kingdom of the beast man..."
"Oh, no. This is the number of beastmen included in the country. In the name of two things, in the case of Usat, it is somewhat special, so I will also let the kingdom of the beast man enter the number. One is Miarak, the ultimate destination, the country here."
This was followed by pointing to the place where the vastly spread great river is enlarged in a circular fashion, with a country-like mark placed at its centre.
- That's a long way from the kingdom of Ringle.
"Handing over the writ to the queen who governs this place and... later, just a short distance from Lucvis... here. Prayer Country, Samaritan"
"Samaritan...... eh"
Ask for that name and pin your tail off like a vibrating tremor Amako. Is there something in this country?... I wonder what. I have a really bad feeling about it.
"This is... in a way, the country that seems to be most cooperative... with a little bit of bad feelings about subpeople"
"Excess, is that why"
"That's what I'm saying. Therefore, when entering this country, I would like to ask Amako to pay close attention... I think you will be fine for entering, but you should still not take me if you want to see the king... I am truly sorry to hear about the circumstances, because there is a summary in a different direction from the country where Kazuki and Inukami are headed..."
"No, don't apologize. 'Cause I'm glad you're just gonna help me."
Prayer country, or something religious seems strong... but I guess I'll be fine. I'm an atheist, so I don't think that's going to affect me, but it's going to be a big deal at dawn when the king finds out about Amako in addition to his barbaric subhuman exclusivism.
"But surprisingly not much? I can't believe we're only sending three."
"You can't take much time. The knights in a different position will be responsible for sending them to other countries. And all the kings of the nations to which the brave and Usato go to give it directly are not of such a character as to cooperate so easily with all those who are difficult. But we can't fight demon kings unless we get their help."
……
"So the kingdom of Ringle has shown its sincerity and readiness by sending the brave men and Usat, the main forces of this country."
... I'm not very responsible.
"... I don't know if I can show my sincerity as long as I'm out."
"That depends on your arm. It doesn't seem to be noticed, but there's nothing in this country that doesn't know you. The Lifeguard is everyone's lifeguard. Isn't it passed on to other countries to the extent of rumors? Whether they believe it or not..."
"I'm not happy to be famous..."
Drop your shoulders sighing. I hope the rumors don't walk alone.
Well, that's the time.
"So, it's about the kingdom of the Beastman... and to be honest, we don't know much about the kingdom of the Beastman. Only to the point where you will be escorted to the opposite shore by Miarak's ship..."
"I'll explain it to Usato."
"Really, that would be reassuring. It's a closed country for a few minutes, so it only had material a long time ago."
I guess that is. Anyway, it's one of those clans that's been forced to lick the bitterness of being human. There was no such thing as AC.
But the kingdom of the beast man is quite far away. In that case, how many people would come along? Honestly, I want you to follow Brulin, who is going to take me with him, and Amako, the beast man, who can handle me if I have to, if I say greed.
"How many people are you planning to go on the journey?
"You prefer as few as possible, so you're about five. But Master Usato may prefer less. You'll find it hard to move with so many people running through the battlefield."
"No, well... it is."
It was a brilliant guess.
This guy knows exactly what I'm thinking.
"Besides... there has also been talk of accompanying the brave men, because the kingdom of the beasts who eventually head is regarded as hostile even if Amako was there and could be immediately attacked because of the increased vigilance due to slavery and discrimination that has stood out in recent years... in the end it has become about one or two people, mainly Usat..."
"No, in my case, it would be fine if someone with some knowledge and common sense followed me. If you push too many people, the response on the part of the beast man is going to be extreme."
Yeah, as long as Amako snorts, what I'm saying doesn't seem to be a mistake. Who would come then...... I'd prefer someone strong enough not to beat a bandit either......
............ Ah. That guy could be trustworthy.
"Um, what about the people you're coming with... what about Mr. Alc Guardle?
"Alc Guardle...... Oh, the guard's! Cheng Cheng, is that him? He's surprisingly knowledgeable and... um, Master Usato has good eyes."
The cool guardian with the red hair, Mr. Alc, is a trustworthy man who can't beat the bandits and protected our lifeguard when fighting the Demon King's Army. Besides, he's an amazing, bright common sense guy.
"After this, I'll take confirmation and see. He would have begged me on the spot...... erm, the explanation is over... no more, he said... oh, I forgot. It's after we went to the kingdom of the Beast Man."
"After going...? Well, we have to go home."
I completely forgot.
Yes, we have to go home. I've always thought of it as a kingdom of beasts, a kingdom of beasts, so I lost it.
"It's simple to return, you're just going back to Lukvis and back from there. You can send a matching letter on your way home, but you can't let the boulders get that far."
"This is going to be an unsavory return..."
Well, easier than going... eh? I don't know what to say in a situation where I don't have the right prospect of fulfilling my mission.
Have you finished talking about the whole story? Mr. Alfie went to the hall where Lord Lloyd is after giving his regards to me and Amako.
They told me that I could go home for the day, so I let them go home.
I wanted to meet up with seniors and Kazuki as well, but some of you will hear about the trip and think something about it, so let's leave the opportunity for another day. Fortunately, we have about half a month to go, so we still have time.
"That's why..."
"Phew."
After sending Amako to Salla's store, I'll tell Rose that I'm watching Ferm's training at the training ground about what Lord Lloyd said and the country I travel to.
"For a long time, you're going to a troublesome stinking country. You'll be fine."
"Are you sure you want to be optimistic..."
"What, are you anxious?
I smile with II and I sigh at Rose looking at this one, unexpectedly with emotions similar to giving up.
"I'm not more anxious than being here for the first time and training with the captain."
"Tell you what."
"Hey, hey, I'm ignoring..."
I scratch my cheeks when I see Fermu painfully standing up under the captain, who looked crazy. Why is it such a pain when Rose is still just on board? I was a rock when I was about you, too, Rock.
"Well, good luck with that. I was tougher."
"Huh!?... Kuh, if you could do it, I could do it..."
He moves his arms desperately while sweating a jitter and makes an armrest. Rose on top of the felm clutches her hair up like a scratch with her legs...
"It's time to take him to the woods and ask him to be away in the meantime."
"... Isn't it early?
"He's trying to make things easier right away. We're just gonna have to tap into a place where we can't do that once."
Is this ghost going to force you to correct your laziness habits?
"... hey, whatever the time of year, it's the way everyone goes"
"Your time is special. He's a little short of guts, so I'm gonna leave him alone."
I'm obsessed with arms up and not realizing it, but tomorrow Fermu will know hell and irrationality. But I don't think it's going to be any worse than me, so I'm sure you'll feel better about it.... Nannon.
"Ka... Ha..."
Because I exercised at a sudden overpace, because Fermu falls to the ground like a baton collapses, and Rose, who is inevitably sitting because of her collapse, also feels like sitting in a chair, so...
"... chip again... how many times is this? Get up, arm up, 500 extra times. About this waste of rice!
"Guuuuuu..."
"Wow... you've been up many times already and you couldn't do it, this kid..."
Rising, Rose began to trample and curse her as she fell down and slightly shook her shoulders with healing magic wrapped around her legs.
Gradually I heard something like a cry, so I bowed silently to Rose and followed the scene. I'm going to get caught up in this. I don't mind training, but maybe Fermu will be sad enough to keep resenting me.
"... yeah, good luck"
This voice of mine can never be heard by her... maybe not.
