Former General Is Undead Knight

Episode Four: Visit to the Count Percilis Territory ③

"You saved me! Though I think I could have gotten rid of them as easily as they did... I'll say thank you for once, thanks! Than that...... you're so strong!

Charles tells Lambert.

"I'll help you... but you should be a little more careful what you say about fooling others for no reason"

"You might be able to fight your master! Sissi! Hey, hey, this old sword, can you really wield it? Awesome!"

Charles busily turns behind Lambert and turns his attention to the sword he is carrying.

"... hey, listen to people"

"Wow, this armor is so beautiful! It doesn't look like paint...... or anything, soooo! Hey, isn't this magic gold mixed? Wow, absolutely expensive guy!

Charles had ignored Lambert and was blinded by the brilliance of his armor.

"You're familiar..."

"Wow! Seriously, it's got magic gold (organ) in it! Heh heh, Atashi's dad is an amazing guy, so maybe he has a collection of different ancestors, and Atashi is familiar with weapons too!

Nor was Charles the most discerning until Lambert's armor was a nearly pure mass of demonic gold (organ).

Pure magic gold (organ) is not normally seen, and because the specific gravity of the magic gold (organ) is too heavy, there is no way that it can be made into armor as is if it were common sense, and it is not impossible to mistake it for an alloy armor.

"I've never seen it glow so beautifully! Wow! Really amazing! Hey, hey, can I touch you for a second?... No?

"... it's not a good substitute for letting others touch it if it's too sticky, but maybe a little bit"

Lambert was proud of his magic gold (organ) armor, a testament to the Four Demons.

In the past, enemy soldiers shook up if they went out to battlefield with demonic gold (organ) armor, and if they walked through the city, they bowed their heads with more respect than the people.

But nowadays nobody knew this magic gold (organ) armor and on the contrary felt lonely to be treated outdated wherever he went, so he was frankly vulnerable to being praised for his armor.

"Hey, you, don't you want to be a knight of the Atashi? Atashi, we need men with strong arms, like you!

"I'm sorry, but I already have a Lord who has sworn allegiance to you for the rest of my life. Let the knights win the others."

"Mm, mmm, I'm not a knight...... What, you... are you a royal soldier? Atashi is Charles, a genius swordsman who fights to defend this territory! And you?"

Charles arms up and declares.

"I'm Lambert. Now I'm traveling within the kingdom."

"... Isn't that free now?

Charles speaks grudgingly.

He seemed to have at his root that he had been treated like a knight and refused.

"If it's a pseudonym, twist it some more. It's fine that you're not willing to tell me your name... but you're making a fool of yourself because Atashi is a chick. Because I know about the name of the General of the War of Unity. Lambert is not a bad name for a child. Then at least make it a griff."

"... well, is Lambert not on edge, is he?"

Lambert drops his shoulder.

I knew how to treat myself in modern times, but I was still shocked when I was made to reconfirm it.

"Oh, I'm sorry, was it true for a second...? I'm sorry?"

Charles saw that Lambert was hurt and apologized while covering his mouth with his hands.

"More than that... you seem to be looking around about the Dark City. Why don't you let me hear that?

"... What, Mr. Lambert is also after The Witch Without a Neck?

"And... rather than looking into the suspicious movement of Demonic Silver (Mithril) in this realm. And he sees the Dark City chewing. For this reason, we also gathered information about liquors, markets, and adventurers' guilds in the land."

"It's going to be a waste..." Lambert added after saying that much.

"Mmm... maybe not too busy for sure... but you don't have to be disappointed like that"

"To listen to this territory...... and actually see the city, Count Percilis doesn't seem to be keen on his duties unless he is very competent as a lord. My predecessors also overlooked the rise of the Dark City, maybe a bloodstream..."

"Oh, is that so? Nothing. I don't think so."

To Lambert's words, Charles returns them as if they were muddled.

"No, just to be clear, this is a lord's neglect. I don't know the details... but I can't possibly keep the country's territory."

…………

Charles looks grumpy and pushes silently.

Lambert wondered how Charles was, if he was the daughter of Count Percilis.

But I immediately dismissed it.

Count Percilis will be fifty now, but he was still talking about being single about what he meant.

They say there are no children to inherit the title.

It was rumored that if he died like this, the title would shift to a distant relative.

Lambert had determined Count Percilis to be an unconscious lazy man as a lord, including such previous information.

But it is no surprise that there are pro-lordinary inhabitants, even if they are not daughters.

It is also perfectly natural not to want to be criticized for listening to people from elsewhere.

But...... as for Lambert, one of those who fought the war of unity with his life to lay the foundations of the present Kingdom of Legions, he was not willing to apologize to Charles either because he could not really like Count Pursilis, who was clearly unwilling.

"That's right! Why don't you come to Lambert, you and Atashi's house? You should thank you for helping Atashi, my cute daughter, too. Dad would know more about the Dark City and the deal. Hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey

Charles slaps his hands on his pants and smiles like a prank.

"That helps... but what kind of person is your father?"

"Okay! That's a decision then! Look, if you don't follow me soon, I'll leave you!

Charles makes silver hair run down the back street, looks back at Lambert and shows his teeth

"Wait, so what kind of person..."

"What kind of person? He's so sweet!

"You're not..."

Charles turns forward and resumes his run.

Lambert began to walk about after her, feeling disgusted by Charles' haste.
