I want to protect you in this hand.

To get to Maris, if you normally run your horse around land, you get two weeks to the border, three days from there. Normally I run horses, and so on, because thanks to Cyril, I also had the option of saying sea routes. But the ship is still only one Cyril-owned. Besides, even around Knoll, the number of days isn't the same as going with a horse. Besides, I don't know when Cyril's ship will come around.

That makes it a choice by road so far. Besides, I don't want to rely on Cyril right now.

Even Kilik does not benefit much from Cyril's ships in areas located south of the centre. But near Khylik's northernmost knoll, it must be going to be important for those who want to export their crops and processed products directly to the Empire and Findaria.

For Cyril, who just wanted to go far, that was eventually, and I think Dan and Arsh are probably thinking about that kind of business strategy. Because Arsh doesn't have much to say, "This is better," but just being with Arsh always makes me think about how I can sell it and how I can be more efficient.

I'm sure that

"I wonder if Maris' daughter has a cute stall or something because of the wind along the sea."

How dare Cyril hear Arsh say that, casually tell Dan about it, and Dan will soon purchase it in the Empire and put it on the next Cyril ship properly, and so on, stain it with maris and make it fashionable to Findaria, and so on.

That, I don't know, people around me are looking at me with a flicker. My appearance isn't noticeable in Kilik, so I don't get to be seen that much. Oh, Orlando walked over here. Sounds somewhat fun.

"Mal."

"Orlando, what's wrong? Sounds fun."

"Mal, you haven't noticed, at all"

Orlando shrugged his shoulder, for Christ's sake.

"You look like you've had a lot of fun since just now. Mal's cute, so he's laughing and he stands out."

"That's not true"

I touched my face with both hands, even though I said so. Were you laughing? I don't know.

"I knew it would be a little regrettable. He just seems so happy to think he's going to see Arsh."

"I can't help but compare. Arsh is Arsh, Orlando is Orlando."

"Sort of."

That way, I was ready in a week after Orlando gave me permission to go out. What are you getting ready for? Kilik's prince's fiancée said it was a political adjustment to go unofficially to Maris in Findaria.

"Same goes for Mal, but also for Arsh, because Findaria is nervous."

"What do you mean?

If I took it to Findaria, despite the sudden collapse of the narrow space, wouldn't it be a useful actor who suppressed the demonic revolt, rebuilt the town of Hoob, set up the inn to take care of the construction officials, and contained the confusion? Without Arsh, well, including us, the town of Hoob would probably have been wiped out, and the Narrows wouldn't have opened for a few more years if they did poorly.

For Kilik, he is a benefactor of life, but he should also be an important figure for Findaria, what does it mean to capture nerves? Doesn't that sound like a dangerous person?

"It's dangerous, Arsh."

"Why! No one is as gentle and good as Ash! If I were Mal, I'd have abandoned Hoob's town like everyone else."

"Perhaps everyone abandoned you about the town of Hoob. Even if we were not to abandon them, the town would have been wiped out after taking the time to take measures. That's why."

Orlando continued with a serious face.

"Being able to do that for free. And that I actually succeeded. That I have succeeded in many things since then. And yet without a reward, to be pulling into a country and living quietly. All of this leads to a suspicious ghost."

"Oh, no."

"I know the Empire's royal brother personally, and this time all the actors admire Arsh. If you try Findaria, you'll feel like you have a bomb inside you."

Do something stupid. Arsh was always a sweet man. That's why you're like a fairy tale luck fairy if you don't want to use it and can move it the way you want, leaving something good for the place.

"So it's a political decision that you should not do anything to increase the suspicion of Findaria."

"Thanks, Orlando"

It's very difficult for me to make that kind of decision.

"If Arsh seemed uncomfortable in Maris, I'd take him back to Kilik"

That's lucky for Kirik.

"And if Cyril was still hectic, I knew Arsh would bring him home"

"Hmm, Cyril? I can do my job."

Orlando grinned bitterly with an indescribable face. I, uh, got in the mood. Rather, Cyril can be hectic. Then I can bring you back.

When I was ready, I just took a handful of confessions and left immediately. Of course, Arsh has a letter out in advance. He wants me and my servants to stay at the Lamb House in Maris for a while. There won't be exactly a miscellaneous fish bedroom, but it must be simple and cozy, like an inn made of hooves.

Later Maris is getting famous for Nina's flower oil, so I'm sure Arsh is developing good food.

"Dear Maru, that sounds really fun every day"

That's what the girl with you talked to me about while we were dining together.

"I don't know for myself. But I look forward to seeing Arsh."

"I'm looking forward to it too. I only saw you once. That was when Maru decided to get engaged to Orlando."

Your child says Tina, but she is in charge of the chores around me, as well as learning the sword. I mean, during the training of a samurai and escort, something like that.

"Well, Maru and Will were beautiful, but with Master Ash and the other silver hair, the shades I've never seen. That seems like a dream already..."

I have the qualities of a sword, and I am motivated, but I tend to dream slightly of the occasional wound.

"Arsh is actually a beautiful, sweet kid, but I'd rather not have dreams because I'm disappointed in Cyril"

"Yes? May Master Mal be too harsh"

Other confessors are laughing at it. Besides me, Tina and the three of us. It's all five of us. Where we've increased the number of people, it doesn't make sense if you're really willing to attack them. This much is fine in order not to be a burden of my feelings.

Don't get tired, don't rush, on schedule, two weeks to the hooves. I saw it like a guild or was pulled over by a lord to stay for a few days, but let's just say Justo was turning well for being guild leader.

From there, take the streets to Maris. As we march down the street, the people of Findaria look back uncommonly. It is still unusual for Kilik's people to go outside. Because there are five of them, and there are two women.

I walked out with Arsh and Cyril and Dan and felt different from when I was turned to curiosity. My hometown was certainly Merida then. It's Mal, the Merida adventurer. But now, it's Kirik's Mal without any discomfort in his appearance or contents. It felt like a misty, tickling strange sensation.

That's how I finally got to Maris. This is my second time, but the offering seemed unusual to watch Nina's flowers bloom. I was obviously impressed by what happened to Tina. But I was nowhere near that. Where's Arsh! Where's the lamb house!
