Different Worlds Slow Life Beginning as a Blacksmith
The Empress's "Welcome Back”
Marius eventually came out to drop him off at the door. We waved in Camilo's carriage.
"Dropping off His Eminence the Handsome Count."
"We also have Her Royal Highness the Emperor. You're way up there, by the way. That's better than the Marquis."
"Sure. Then it's a natural response."
"Well, me and Eizo are merchants and blacksmiths, and it's a good place downstairs."
"Must be."
Leaving Amur Mansion, me and Camilo banged each other lightly and laughed.
"You're more comfortable with the Count than you were listening to."
"Sort of. I can't tell Anne much, but at least she thinks I'm a friend."
"What about me?
"I don't know."
"Chi."
Camilo pounding his tongue deliberately. Now Anne laughs with me. Thus, the carriage proceeded along the quiet inner city.
At the gate stands the gatekeeper who was there earlier. He looked like he was convinced when he saw us passing by.
It would be more normal to think that it was a carriage escort if you looked at the current state of affairs about the identities of two men and women who do not look like armed nobles, and maybe you thought about the area.
I wondered if I would ever see it again for a while, and I looked at the smaller gate, a little smudged.
I went down the boulevard, which people would waste, and through the gates of the outer walls.
"With that said, why is that gate so big that the Giants can go through it?"
"Really?
That's what I heard.
I guess it was from Camilo. He won't pinch my mouth, so I'm pretty sure he has something to say.
"I've heard my ancestors were bigger than they are now."
"Ho."
"But I doubt it was big enough to have to have those ready."
"I guess."
I said as I looked at Daimon. Anne, but 4-5 people are so big that they seem to line up vertically.
Maybe some of the giants were specifically big, but when I asked if they were big enough to prepare just for it, it would be suspicious there.
"I'm small because I'm a child with humans, but the giants are so big in size that they're essential for troublesome stories."
"For example?"
"Dishes are a little small and hard to use when they're human in size."
"And then there's clothes and stuff?
"Right. It's going to take a lot of time and money to tailor..."
"I see. Oh, should we make our dishes bigger, too?
"Yeah. I'm fine with anything of normal size. If my mother's coming, I might as well have her ready, but I don't think she has any plans."
"Hmm."
Even though Anne doesn't want it, other than Anne's mother - that is, after the Emperor of the Empire - it doesn't necessarily mean when a giant customer isn't coming. Do you want to make it in the afternoon when you collect your hunting prey?
That's how the carriage goes down the street. The sky was still clear today and white clouds were slowly moving down the blue streets. The wind across is stroking the meadow and the grass is shaking like a tickle.
"Something's moving somewhere in the world, even if it looks so peaceful"
I looked out at the landscape and pounded. Anne answers when she hears it.
"That's the world, isn't it? There's gonna be differences of position, but basically we're moving for ourselves, so we're gonna have a collision somewhere."
"Right."
I'd like to keep myself away from that if I could, but I guess there's no way I can do that more than engage with the public. In fact, Anne... the Empire thought I was better than the kingdom.
But still.
"I don't want to get involved with that."
If I didn't tell you that, I would feel dragged right into it, and I put it in my mouth, and Anne didn't say anything more.
The carriage proceeded faster than normal and reached the forest entrance before sundown. Still, in a while, the sun will dye the vicinity red.
"Excuse me, can I have a pine light just in case?
"Oh. Take whatever you want. It's free this time. I'll take it next time."
"Don't be silly."
He's a merchant.
Camilo and I will laugh and shake hands and say goodbye to this one. We're almost home.
After entering the forest for a little while, the forest sank into orange as I thought it would. Me and Anne's longer shadow slowly progresses through it.
There is no conversation between the two of us so far. It just goes silently between the trees.
I thought I could reach the house in a critical way, but it doesn't seem to be the case, and the orange color that was filling the forest begins to mix with black.
"Keep the pine light on while you can, just in case"
"Right."
I took the tools I needed from my belongings and set the pine light on fire. Orange returns to the perimeter.
Me and Anne walked out again.
"You know."
I walked out for a little while and Anne opened her mouth.
"What?
"I'm a little happy right now"
I encourage ahead by not answering.
"My days as a princess. That's good, though. That was me."
The sound of stepping on the undergrowth echoes around.
"But for the first time since I came to Eizo's house, I feel like I've been able to slow down from the bottom of my heart."
"Right."
"So I'm happy to be able to live that life again"
"That's fine. Well, I don't need your help with the job, but basically, we're all relaxed."
"Looking forward to it."
Anne said in a raucous voice in contradiction to the darkness around her. I can't believe I'm going to live in the back of the woods! I would have tried to be hard if I had, but at least I feel a little relieved because it doesn't seem to be the case on the word.
That's how when the area got dark, I found a different light than the pine light. Home.
Everyone is out in front of the door. Krull and Lucy also sat in front of the house.
"Hold that for a second, please"
"Yeah."
Anne received a pine light in her face saying what it was. I'll just walk away from Anne to the house and head over to Anne.
At the same time, the voices of everyone, including me, echoed in the woods, where there was only the sound of the wind.
"Welcome back, Anne"
Anne, who was at first Kyoton when she heard it, eventually returned it with a face she didn't know if she was laughing or crying.
"I'm home, guys"
