[Murcia]

"... uuu, I'm worried"

I haven't bothered to sleep in the past week. My stomach also hurts, so I can't eat much and I can't put my strength into my body. If the march had not been a carriage, it would have fallen.

As you look out the carriage window, you notice that the view from the street is clearly different. The forest was deeper and the mountains steeper than they were three days ago.

The depth of the forest and the steepness of the mountain implicitly conveyed the threat of the beast. It felt as if it was still too early for people to grasp.

"...... Van would have been worried about this place......"

My chest hurts when I think about how Van felt when he was kicked out of his father close to insulation. At that time, I could only keep the money I had, but I wish I could have asked my father to add my men.

For a moment, I thought of such sympathy, but now I remember that I was in that position, and I let out a sigh.

"... but Van subdued the dragon in such an environment and won the title."

No matter how much I think about it, I don't think I can do it. Even if the dragon was stuck, it would be difficult to crush it. I exercised my magic until my magic power was exhausted, and at the end, I could only see a mysterious future.

Van has been smart since he was a little girl. Probably, he must have formed a dragon crusade with a peculiarity that he could not even think of. But it would still have been a tough fight.

What can I do to go to a village in such a situation?

As my anxiety grew stronger and stronger, I heard a voice outside.

"Hey, hey... hey..."

"You've made a mistake..."

I heard the soldiers' bewildered voice and watched the direction of travel. Then there was a huge building at the end of the road. The building has a square shape and looks very large.

There is also a very large water wheel, but is it carrying water to the top floor of the building? There was also white smoke everywhere from the window at the bottom level.

Going further, I could see a wall in the back of the building that looked like a royal capital. What do you do by building walls without protecting buildings? I didn't know that a threatening beast was coming from the other side of the wall, so I built a sturdy wall on one side.

I was imagining things with my confused head, but suddenly the carriage stopped and a voice came from outside.

"I'll see you with the Marquis Jalpa Bull Ati Fertio!" I am Baron Van Ney Fertio, head of the Order of the Knights, Dee! We welcome your group! "

It's a nostalgic voice. I accidentally put my face out of the carriage and checked the direction of my voice. An armored man stands in front of the entrance to a large building on the side of a water wheel. No doubt about it, Dee. There were two young knights on the side who had seen it somewhere before.

Looking at the cheerful Dee and feeling relieved somewhere, Espada and Till appeared from the back. And finally, that ex-slave boy and Van's figure are finally in sight.

Van!

I didn't even notice it. When I stepped out of the carriage and waved at Van, he waved back at me with a happy face.

At first glance, I don't think I'm injured. Even after the dragon crusade, Dee, Espada, and Van seemed to be the same.

Brother Murcia.

In my name, Van walks over here.

My father was in the ranks of the Knights, so I could still be a few hundred meters behind him, but if Lord Van greets me and welcomes me first, I'd be in trouble.

I hurried back into the carriage to get my father's face up.

"Va, Van... go pick up my father first." I wish I could talk to you later. "

That's what I tell you from the carriage. However, Van grabbed the carriage window with both hands and shoved his face into the carriage. As he giggles, Van raises the edge of his mouth like a prankster.

"Brother, it's been a long time. Thanks to you, the territory has grown stronger." The truth is, I wanted to show it to you first. "

When Van told me that, I could burst into tears. My help boat may have just made Van's future harsh. I've been thinking about that many times. That's why I accidentally cried out my thanks to Van.

"No, no, it's Van's power... I couldn't do anything." I wish I could have advised my father and provided him with more money and men, but I couldn't tell him. "

An excuse similar to a confession comes out of my mouth. I can't raise my face because I can't stand it.

But Van laughed at the carriage window as he leaned out his arms and let out his breath.

"If I were true, I would have died there." Even if my father didn't execute me, I might have died before I got to the territory if my brother hadn't helped me. That's why, thank you. "

When I was told that with an innocent smile like a flower, I finally burst into tears.

"Uu, uuu...... kuu"

I waited for you to sob and wipe your tears with my hands.

"Well then, I'll say hello to the Marquis." You can go to Theatre Village first. "

Huh? Isn't this the village of Theato?

I questioned Van's words with tears, but Van was no longer there.

Instead, Dee's face snaps into the carriage.

"Oh! It's been a long time, Murcia-sama!" How are you! "

"Um, yeah. You look fine too, Deputy Commander Dee... oh, now you're the Commander of the Knights of Van."

"Wahahaha! I am the Commander of the Knights of Theato Village, and Lord Espada is the Commander of the Knights of España! Watch the drill later! Let's get rid of it!"

Saying that, Dee pulls his face out of the carriage window and gives instructions to the soldiers around him.

"This is your resting place!" On the first floor, there are separate men's and women's baths, and on the second floor, there is a private room for officers and above! Also just beyond the walls is the city for adventurers and pedestrians, and beyond that is the village of Theato! Generals may not be able to get to Theato Village, but there's plenty of shopping and eating in the city! ”

And Dee briefly talked about the situation in the neighborhood, but everyone looked at the building in front of them unbelievably.

The first floor of this huge building is a large bathing area. Even the royal family would not own such a huge bathing facility.

Moreover, the strangely sturdy walls of the city do not belong to the main cities of Van's territory. I can't believe Dee said it in a way that sounds like a pussy.

"... my imagination is completely out of sight..."

My youngest brother was sent to an unnamed village. It's a harsh environment where people are dying. I thought so, but the sight in front of me didn't look so good.
