Before the battle ceremony, Arte and Ferdinand exchanged gazes and laughed at each other.
Even after the barbecue, the two of them still had conversations as if they were taking back their lost parent-child time, and at the end they were able to laugh together somewhat.
The simple altarpiece is composed of high-ranking nobles such as His Majesty, Jalpa, Venturi, and Ferdinand, and some lower-ranking nobles such as Panamera. And for some reason, I'm on stage.
His Majesty looked at the faces of the knights assembled and honored the Knights' martial arts. In addition, the senior nobles of Jalpa praised the Knights in the same way. It's a ceremony to boost the mood of each soldier to make them feel confident and motivated.
The day before yesterday, I had a full meal at a big banquet, and I also had a sake in my mouth. Soldiers will be more motivated if they refuse.
Looking at His Majesty's back with that in mind, His Majesty opened his mouth at the time when the ceremony was almost over.
"My kingdom's elite!" If you want to do last night's dinner again, you can smash Yellinetta and go home alive! ”
And, I fly a bird that I've never heard of. However, it seemed that it raised the tension of the most powerful soldiers, and a great cheer returned.
His Majesty looks at us and laughs.
Hunt down demon beasts again and prepare food for them. Either way, a considerable amount will be stockpiled in a week or two. Decide that there is no problem and smile back.
The emperor smiled unexpectedly, nodding lightly and pulling out his sword.
I have to go out!
To his voice, the soldiers returned a majestic voice like the sound of the ground. Then, as agreed, the Knights of the Countess of Venturi marched ahead.
Then, a group of adventurers approached the stage. Ortho, Puriel, and Ksara.
Well then, let's go.
"Please, Mr. Ort."
Ort, who had been asked by the emperor to guard and escort the mountain road, was laughing with a natural body that made him feel free.
It's been a long time since I've been in Theato Village, and Ortos have well stocked my weapons, armor, and shields. Besides, there were many powerful demon beasts like the Dungeon and the Wolfsburg Mountains, so I could afford to fight them.
"Well, it's easy for me to be vigilant at the head." I want you to feel like you're on a big ship. "
When Ksara said that, the orthoses turned white eyes.
What does the innkeeper say about the high commission?
”Originally it was prone to overweight, but lately it's even more rounded”
"No, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no. This time the aristocrats stayed at my place, and I reduced my debt all at once, so you're not jealous of me?"
Ksara shakes her round belly and laughs at Ort and Puriel. You're in shape, this one.
Ksara will do her job properly, but being alert and arrogant is dangerous.
"Ksara-san, if we talk about the future when we go to a life-threatening scene, the dragons will swallow us up... be careful?"
Everyone's eyes turned toward Kusara as she muttered so much.
"Yes, well, if you fulfill this request, you'll get married, or if you survive, you'll open a shop. Those who said that often die during the request..."
"It's true..."
Ort and Pullriel agree with a strange face. Besides, Ksara shuddered and twisted her smile.
"Leave it, leave it, leave it...!?" Hah, hahaha! I've got a lot of jokes, kid! "
Looking at the frightened Kusara with pathetic eyes, she took a breath and pushed silently.
All right, now we're going to get our nerves back. I nodded and sent out the orts.
When I suddenly looked next to him, I saw Arte calling out to Count Ferdinand, who was going to get off the stage and go under the Knights.
"... ah, well, take care of yourself..."
Ferdinat was instantly surprised by his father's worried words, but immediately gave a gentle smile.
"...... I'm coming, Alte"
Although it was not yet natural, it was true that the two of them seemed to care for each other as parents and children.
Panamera came next to her and opened her mouth as she watched in relief.
"... you did something again, boy." I can't believe you two had such a conversation if you knew them before. "
Panamera said so and shook her head to the left and right.
“No, I think Arte changed the mind of Count Ferdinand himself. Alte worked very hard. Without my help, I returned to the Count and defeated the army of the Kingdom of Yerinetta."
Panamera chuckled as she answered.
"To the point that Lord Ferdinand isn't the only one who has changed?"
She muttered and stroked my head.
”I'm not really tired of being with the boy.”
Panamera laughed in a good mood and said something like that.
