It's about a fifteen-day carriage from the Kingdom of Volg to the Kingdom of Forell, but riding a dragon allows you to travel in one day.

The Kingdom of Forell is situated directly above the Kingdom of Volg, on a map, at a straight distance of only about 500 km, but there is a reason why it cannot go straight up. Because there are mountain ranges where dangerous warcraft exit, and the roads are not ruggedly maintained in any way, we will go through the foothills of the mountains in great bypass.

But with a dragon rider, you can go over that mountain range, so you can get there in the shortest possible distance. The mountain warcraft is dangerous with many strong individuals, but they say there are no strong flying warcraft that will challenge Drake. Although the dragon species is the weakest, Drake is strong.

Drake's flying speed, but not a hell of a speed like a fighter. It seems to be flying with dragon-specific flying magic, rather than flying with big wings, and I think the maximum speed is about 200 km/h even when we can successfully ride the wind.

Normally, I don't have to. I fly at about 60-80 knots an hour, so I plan to take a break about three degrees in between and arrive in the Kingdom of Forell in about eight hours. Unlike car-like machines, dragons are creatures. A break on the way is important.

Safe mountain crossing is now over, and we have just arrived on the border uncle's territory in neighbouring countries.

As it stands, the bare streets become a problem, so I'm just putting in a report that I'm going to pass the border gatekeeper.

"Welcome, Your Highness Jail, Your Highness Luke! Reports are received. If you'll excuse me, the lord tells me you can't take a break in the hall."

My brother will deal with this matter without difficulty.

"I'm sorry. I need to head over to the Duke of Forrest house as soon as possible, so let me keep going this time. When I drop by on my way home, will you tell Lord Borderline?

"Admitted. My lord tells me not to stop you. We hope you continue to make a safe journey"

"Oh, thank you. Then let me go."

Brother Jail is the first prince of a great nation... troublesome, but diplomacy is one of the most important things to do because he will eventually be king ~.

"Um, don't you need flowers?

Yeah? You're the flower girl......

A girl, about twelve years old, came calling with a cup of flowers in her cage.

"This! This man is noble! Don't let every flower seller speak up!

"Oh, I'm sorry!

The gatekeeper cautioned with a strong tone, but if he's always selling it near here, I think he looks familiar with this kid. Probably considered working disrespect to keep this kid away from us doing something. Because some noblemen are violent towards the general public.

"Beautiful flowers. How much is that?

"Huh?

"I'm saying this Mitsuhito will buy it for me. Why don't you answer me soon?"

"Yes! Fifty Jennies a bunch."

Cheap...... bundle of about 15 pale purple or pink tulips bundled together.

Other wildflowers of the season that this kid picked around are beautifully bound.

I don't know if you're making a dime or adding to your household income, but let's work together.

"That's a lovely flower. Can I have all the cages? Is that enough?

Hand me one gold coin.

The cage is something you can buy if you have a thousand Jennies, so it's rather too much to give, but it's a reward for a pretty working girl.

"Um... I don't have a stick in gold..."

When converted in Japanese yen, gold coins are worth roughly 10,000 yen.

Copper Coins: Ten Jennies

Iron Coins: Hundred Jennies

Silver Coin: Thousand Jennies

Gold coin: 10,000 Jenny

Mithrill Coins: 100,000 Jenny

Orihalcon Coins: Millions Jenny

Using the decimal method, such a value criterion. Jenny, not the circle, though.

About the same value in yen.

"I'll give you the change."

"Eh!? But..."

"You're saying it's good. You just have to take it and thank me and walk away. Good for you."

"Yes! Thank you! Now you can cure your grandmother's injuries!

What the hell!

"Wait a minute! Is your mother hurt?

"Yes... to the extent that it can be cured with a healing agent, because I have about five days after my father, who has the money, returns..."

When I hear from a girl, it doesn't seem like the house is so poor that she can't buy a healing agent. A father with an adventurer card who could withdraw his money was away, and the meal bill on hand didn't seem enough to buy a restorative.

The flower dealer herself seems to be this daughter's penny, and now she was trying hard to sell flowers and buy medicine fast... she's a young but fine daughter.

My brother came to my side and handed me an intermediate healing agent. The only thing I could buy for 10,000 Jenny is an elementary healing agent, but I don't know the extent of the wound, so my brother handed me an intermediate healing agent just in case.

Brother Boulder!

"You should take this. It's an intermediate healer."

"Eh! But I can't get such expensive stuff..."

"Because it's good. Come on, you should go home and fix your mother's injury."

"Thank you, noble brother!

He bowed deeply and ran away with the healing agent in his hands looking important.

Have a nice smile!

"Luke, you're sweet for kids...... not hot though"

"Brother, I have a lot to say..."

I also wanted to take a peek at the border realm, but I refused because my brother looked at me.

I left early in the morning so the time was still 1: 00 PM...... I had lunch but I have time and I wanted to pinch something unusual in another country.

It's a day's ride from here to Duke's territory, but if you ride a dragon, you'll be there in about an hour.

Around 45 minutes from the Borderline Uncle, I could see some fighting going on in the streets.

"Brother...... isn't that attacked by bandits?

"Well... you're here... you can't be in danger until we get you there safely..."

Far above where the battle is taking place, hovering to see how it goes.

There are eight knight-like people protecting the carriage, and about forty bandit-like people attacking it.

It looks like two knights have already fallen, many of them passive and disadvantaged.

Luke, you've never done anything wrong. Me too, of course.

Wow, seriously, we're killing each other... if it involves us, we have to kill each other.

I honestly wasn't ready to come into this world like that.

You don't have to have a promising bandit event.

If there's a world where this kind of behavior is frequent, it's impossible that I, the royal one, don't commit murder. That's what knighthood schools are for nobles.

A knight is a person to protect a village, town or country from threats. Threats include, of course, warcraft, but also bandits, the roaming of towns and, at the end of the day, other countries in the event of war.

Nobles need to be at the forefront of the fight to protect civilians when things happen. Civilians who do not have the strength to do so pay taxes to the state. There will be a riot for sure, even though you are struggling to pay taxes, but you won't protect me when you have to. Don't let that happen. The nobleman's son is empowered to go to the Knights School and eliminate the threat.

"My brother became a Knight of the Dragon, so do you have any more murder experience or anything?

"No... I haven't been to very dangerous places or dangerous missions because I'm still an apprentice"

It's only been a year since you graduated from school ~.

"Ah! One knight has been magically killed!

"Luke, the house chapter in that carriage belongs to the Forell royal family... I think it's probably someone in the royal family who's in that wagon being attacked"

"You can't overlook me as a Volg royal, can you?

"I'm on a mission... but I think I'm going to step up... and you're going to drop me off somewhere away, so wait."

"You'd be mad if your father found out your brother was on his way to joining us... in case your brother dies in this fight, my son-in-law will be gone too"

We have three boys. The last two are the sons of their rightful wives, and they are both so brilliant that they also passed this son-in-law story. If my oldest son dies, my second son will succeed me, but he will need me for insurance because of the risk of illness and death etc...

My brother is going to put me down somewhere just for me and join him... a wish or an offer, but I would regret it for the rest of my life if I did that... I have no heroic aspirations, no brave aspirations, no saintly aspirations... but I don't want to overlook anyone being attacked.

I don't do special attacks on 100 opponents alone or anything stupid that would make me die for nothing, but this time I'm not an opponent at all hostile. Bandits are inherently weak... because the bandit family is the first place where half the people who can't be knights or adventurers have fallen.

To be honest, I'm scared... because I'm definitely weaker than the righteous knights fighting downstairs. Even though those knights are struggling, it wouldn't be a great battle force for me to join my dragon knight apprentice brother and kid... I know that, so don't tell your brother he's going to help, but he says he's going to step up.

But it's not like you don't have a winning eye... because you have a dragon rider! That's why my brother decided to go to the gym.

"Brother, what would my future position be if I didn't leave here to take care of this country from now on?

"It would be awkward, but can you fight? Are you prepared to kill people? If you get lost, you're gonna die, right?

"'The Prince of Pigs' also has its will! Run here, hide, and you'll regret it for the rest of your life! I'm a Volg royal, too!

"Well said! Okay, let's descend and join forces! If we can do something about that dense wizard and archer behind us, we can cover up the war situation!

"Brother, please wait!

"Oh, my God! If we don't hurry up, we're at a disadvantage!

"Please remove the [demon-sealed shackles]! Now you can't do anything!

"Ah! I forgot..."

I had my shackles off in a hurry...... what the hell!
