"Oh, well, was that why..."

"Oh, well, that's why..."

"Oh, well, that's why..."

…………

Four of them finally convinced me to explain Mavis again.

Yes, Mavis sought to 'strengthen the body and repair the flesh of others' by the power of 'Qi', sending 'Qi' into the body of the other person via Micros and blood….

... and the fruit of it, it was' healing magic 'itself.

Regardless of the magical effect, however, Mavis, who was oblivious to its principle of action, was a little good at thinking of it not as magic, but as "a new move that he devised and developed, the secret of Miles' home, a move by the power of" chi ".

(Could this already be named a move beyond the secret realm of Miles' parents' home, namely "Mavis Flow Qi Gong"...)

Mavis, I was just a little too well.

"And anyway, no wonder! From what you've seen, I didn't know you could use healing magic even though you're like a swordsman... I don't have a medication, they're supposed to say. In the first place, we don't need that..."

The escort leader bowing his head as he thanked and the two remaining escorts following the girl's recovery and her loss of blood, albeit not in good shape because there was nothing she could do, until she could travel by herself if slowly.

"No, as someone who aspires to be a knight, it is only natural to help those in need. I'd be honored if I could help. Now with this…"

As Mavis said his farewell words and tried to walk away, a man from the escort leader quickly glanced (meshed) at the other three, confirming that three people, including the girl, nodded lightly, and hung a clasp at Mavis.

"Please wait! From what I've seen, the destination looks the same as ours. Can you please accompany us until we cross the border?

I can't help but hope they do.

If, in case that procedure they consider to be 'healing magic' is incomplete or the girl, who is not yet in good shape, is unable to move again, she would feel at ease differently if she were accompanied.

I thought so, Mavis, after a little thought, admitted it.

There are still four micros left, and since the original destination is in the same direction, where the speed of travel has somewhat dropped, it's no big deal. Worst of all, it's about a day's delay in arriving in the city, and if that's about it, my colleagues can be worried about it.

Mavis who convinced himself of that thought, but, of course, there was no other option from the beginning. Anyway, she is the daughter of a knightly, proud nobleman named Mavis von Austin.

"Never mind! This thank you must be..."

As the escort leader bowed his head too many times, Mavis said what he thought.

"Then won't it take the form of a request so you don't have to worry too much about it? Request an escort to the next city. How about a small gold coin?

Just the same.

Even for ordinary escort requests, the price is not less than two small coins per day. That, obviously, translates into an atmosphere where there is likely to be an attack by a tracker. And in that case, there is probably a good chance that the opponent is the owner of a skill that is not a bandit.

Furthermore, at times, it is expected that healing with secret medications will also be used. Besides, it seemed difficult to arrive the next day when I walked to a girl who wasn't in the best shape.

If it's a regular quote, at least one gold coin. If it's Pauline, three gold coins is probably a blowing project. Of course, not per party, but per person. And that, by no means, is outrageous. That's how dangerous it is, it was a 'bad project'.

'Red Request' without a doubt, if posted in the Hunter Guild Branch. And normally, it's a case to ask a mercenary guild, not a hunter guild. … or into regular armies, such as the Lord's Army or the Wang Du Army (NAM).

"... go back! I'm sorry, but I'll let your words sweeten me..."

Naturally, the escorts know about the market around there. So I know that Mavis' offer is not about money, but about letting us worry about it.

And while it was possible to offer a greater reward, I could not speak of it. Even though we clearly know that Mavis has taken it on regardless of the amount of the reward and so on, if we mention the amount of the reward and so on here and now, that would be an insult to this knightly aspiring woman. After everything is done, it is necessary to hand over a softly larger amount of reward.

Now it was enough to thank him in silence for his generosity and bow his head.

A line that fits the girl's legs and proceeds at a slow rate.

Carriages in the same direction wanted to pass several times, but all boarding was refused.

Even asking for a girl to be the only one on the carriage, she was not dealt with because she was reluctant to slow down to match the walker, or because she suspected that she was a disguised bandit who saw a gap and attacked her.

Even if not, it was unnatural for a weak, stately lady to be traveling on foot, and the merchants' reluctance to get into trouble had no choice. They also have their lives and the lives of their families and employees at stake. I don't want to risk uselessness.

If we keep going down the street, we'll be caught up in time. And soon to be discovered.

... to the other hand they are trying to escape.

However, it is not possible to take the streets off to advance through forests, wastelands, rocky mountains, etc. Regardless of the others, it is the mountain of Sekiyama that will cause the girl to progress extremely slowly, and injure herself by falling or frustrating (lottering) her legs, causing extra travel speed to drop.

Also, no matter how much you go through the woods concealing yourself, the speed of movement has dropped extremely, if the main unit of the tracker easily holds you forward and a separate squad scattered from the rear hangs you on the chase, stuffing you. It would still be a little better here to know you can't and earn as much distance as you can.

And while traveling, they gave Mavis the minimum amount of information he needed. Exactly, he thought it would be sorry to get involved in the fight without even telling him why. And maybe we wanted to tell them that justice is for us.

"… I see that the lady, who ranks first in the inheritance order, is the deceased, and the person who ranks second in the inheritance order, is the seat of the successor? That's a common story.

No, well, even though it's a common story in the world, it's a big problem for the parties, of course... "

No offense at all to Mavis, but really, I couldn't think of anything other than 'common stories'. The three escorts appear to be a little nosy, but the young lady laughs bitterly. Probably thought so myself. In fact, it was too common a story.

The only explanation for the circumstances was that.

No family name, blood ties to those in the second order of inheritance, or other details will be given. Such information is unnecessary and meaningless.

Besides, Mavis said, "The secret of my clan," and it's easy to see from the behavior, words, and deeds, that it's not out of the civilian population. No matter how much help you wished, it would do no good to give the nobles of other countries too much detail, information that also means nothing on this occasion.

But Mavis is not an idiot, either, and he is a child of the aristocracy. From previous conversations, I had guessed some things. The ladies and the escorts probably don't realize that...

And while it was still bright, it was captured by the chaser.

With giant trees growing on the side of the street, they seemed surrounded.

"Six... You're a forward search party. If you let them escape, the main unit will be informed of this position and the situation. Don't let any of them get away with it... so in the first place, none of them are willing to get away with it."

As the leader put it, the other side didn't prioritize bringing the information back, it seemed like he was going to keep this one tied up, or kill it. Either way, it will depend on the orders they are receiving.

And once you take your eyes off it, you don't know if you can rediscover the line right away again. 'I discovered it, but I lost it while I was away for reporting' and 'I discovered it, I captured it'. I don't even have to think about which one will be the handle.

And the power is, there's six over there, and this one's got three and one Omake. Whatever the bandit is over there, there's no way he misses this opportunity to handle himself more than apparently being a knight or a skilled soldier over there. It's a real, two-to-one power ratio, because it won't even be among the numbers for them, such as Omake's new American female hunter.

"Lord Mavis, put Ogi on his back and ask for the lady's direct guard"

The escort leader told Mavis so.

It will take care of the safety of those to be protected, as well as surrender if we are wiped out, so that we are not tired of Mavis just being hired. In common sense, there's no way a young female hunter can be an enemy to a knight or a hand-worked soldier. Only, Mavis would have been hired as a healing officer for the girl.... them, in the perception of the three escorts.

But the request Mavis received was a 'escort mission'.

"To the extent that. Sounds like a reasonable decision..."

Mavis replied as if to acknowledge the validity of the instruction.

"… but I refuse"

"" "" Huh?

"No matter how much you are hired, hunters have the right to refuse or suggest a substitute for any apparently incorrect instructions or orders. And you've all seen my powers wrong and made the wrong decisions.

... with Oki on his back, you three escort the lady. And I... "

And Mavis pulled out his sword.

"We take on the annihilation of our enemies!
