I can't help saying I don't give my name to my Earl Earl. I immediately opened my mouth.

"I'm a Captain Hiro of the ranks of the Mercenary Guild, a Gold Rank mercenary. I'm not confident in my etiquette, so please pardon me if I'm rude. These two are my crew on board my ship, Krishna This is the co-pilot, Elma, and this is the operator, Mimi. Standing behind is Maid Lloyd, Mei, Elma, Mi, Mimi, and Mei. "

Elma and Mei who were introduced to me gracefully bow down to Count Daleinwald, and Mimi managed to follow. Apparently Mimi seems depressed in front of Count Daleinwald. It's a natural imperial, and the fear of the imperial aristocracy is probably the greatest.

"Um ... you should sit down." "Yes."

When we all sat down, the tea was ready again on the table. It is an example of bright red tea. Is it better to express it as true black tea? No, is it alright for tea?

"First of all, I thank you. It's a brilliant work of protecting and guarding Christina, the successor to the Countess of Daleinwald. Thank you as both the Countess of Daleinwald and as the grandfather of Christina. "I have to say," I don't know the words ... ", but to be honest, it was quite difficult, yeah." "A little ...!" Yes, but we must report to Count Daleinwald from our mouth. ''

He develops his argument while preventing Elma's elbows from sticking to the sides.

"Yes, I've heard everything from Christina, but it would be better to hear from you as well."

The generous count of Daleinwald said that my claim was justified. A sharp elbow struck my flank when I saw my face. terrible. And with some help from Mimi, Elma, and Chris, I told Count Daleinwald in as much detail as possible about how we moved, how we were attacked, and how we protected Chris. As soon as he reached the Sierra system, he was attacked by pirates, and Chris's Cold Sleep Pod was among his loot. I brought the Cold Sleep Pod to the Sierra Prime Colony because I can't afford to abandon it. Waking up from Cold Sleep at the Port Authority and then meeting Chris.

"Well, it was really lucky that Christina met you." "Yes. That's also thanks to my mother and father who let me escape from that boat." "Yes ..."

While watching the appearance of Count Daleinwald and Chris in a delicate atmosphere, moisten the throat with too much red tea and continue the talk. He heard about the situation from Chris to drifting and was asked to protect her for a reward. Booked accommodation on multiple resort planets to disturb thugs released by Chris's uncle's hands. As soon as he departed, he was attacked by an assassin and repelled it. A resort planet where you stay was attacked by a pirate, and the attack was used as a cover to fight a fighting robot descending from stealth dropships. Relying on my personal mentor to work with an independent anti-pirate unit led by Major Serena. He was attacked by a fighter fleet belonging to the Imperial Space Force, believed to have been moved by the work of Chris's uncle, and defeated it along with an independent anti-pirate fleet.

"And when I returned to the Sierra Prime Colony, I finally looked like an Earl." "I see ... well, it seems to be consistent with what I heard from Christina. ""Thank you"

If you say that you wanted to hear that word, Elma would be strangled by Elma, so take care of yourself. For now, I have no complaints if I get enough rewards, including expenses. You can make money by helping a beautiful girl like Chris. That's the best. Ah? What if Chris wasn't a beautiful girl? I think Chris would have helped if he was not a beautiful girl, a young boy, or an uncle if she was the one I wanted to help. There's no denying that Chris's desire to help worked out because she was a beautiful girl! Isn't that obvious?

"I'll fill in the details of the amount later, what will happen next?" "Hmm ..."

In my words Count Daleinwald stroked his chin and thought for a moment.

"I brought in as much of my strength as I could, but I don't know if I would be safe to be targeted by a regular army combat fleet, even if it's a two-liner. "I'll hire you." "I would like to receive that request depending on the reward. How about the two?" "I don't care," "Wo, I don't care."

Elma and Mimi do not seem to be escorting Chris. I won't ask Mei from the beginning, because I don't think he's going to say that.

"Okay, let's talk about rewards, first of all about Christina's escorts."

Count Daleinwald's secretary was also called in, and talks on compensation began. As a result, all of the energy used on the resort planet, including the funds used to disturb the pursuers, was fully covered. In addition, the escort will be paid 5 million energy. As expected, it is a senior noble. He gave me 8 million energy PON. This is the price of Chris's life for the Count. However, despite the fact that it was purchased in Sierra II, the purchase of Mei was not covered by Chris's escort. That's right. It was only a short notice that it was officially received, and it is inevitable that if it was received, it would be deemed to have made no contribution to Chris's escort. After adding the Pelican II escort fee of 240,000 Enel received from Major Serena to this and subtracting the share between Mimi and Elma, my rough estimate was about 24.4 million Enel. A rough deduction including the energy used during your stay at Sierra II, various supplies for taking care of May purchased by the receptionist of the Orient Corporation, optional parts, and other money used for various things. It's like that. By the way, the shares of Mimi and Elma who were escorted by Pelican II and Chris were 4,200 Enel and 247200 Enel, respectively. Elma is about to have enough money to fully customize a ship of a class that will carry a bronze-ranked mercenary. The repayment to me does not have 1 energy yet! It doesn't matter, though. It's fun and dependable to be with Elma. But 24.4 million energy. With this alone, it is likely that a mother ship that can accommodate Krishna will be reachable. I want some more money to customize it. Now that we have settled our rewards, we'll talk about the rewards for the future. "The average escort fee for hiring a gold-ranked mercenary is 80,000 energy per day, but for this time we will offer 250,000 energy per day." He was a mature man whom Chris said was the secretary of Count Daleinwald. That is 250,000 energy per day. Major Serena paid only 80,000 energy per day. However, it is still difficult to understand that it is more than three times. Of course it doesn't matter if it's high, but I'm wondering if there's something behind it. Elma whispered softly as she leaned inwardly at the amount presented.

"I think there are various circumstances, but the point is that it also includes a halt fee. I hope that you will not listen to this time about Daleinwald's Gotagota," "I said when I explained the situation a while ago, "I don't think we've talked to Major Serena." "I think it's already woven. It's possible that Daleinwald's uncle Gotagota, or Chris's uncle's uncle, has overturned Daleinwald's. It's a scandal, but stealth dropships and the emergence of rebels in the Imperial Aerial Forces can shake the empire's prestige: the Empire and the Earl of Daleinwald do a good job in secret, so don't buzz. If you listen to this collection and go around, not only Daleinwald and the Graccan Empire I keep chuck because that could wrecked by "," Hye' ...... your mouth to be careful. Mimi also by us with the Juju care, "" is, yes. "

When Mimi heard Elma's explanation, she turned her face blue and nodded. Countess Daleinwald is staring at us. Earl himself is expressionless. Chris smiled with a smile, and the secretary man smiled. Come on.

"I'm gonna give you that condition." "It was good. Supply and" cleaning "will take a few more days, so be prepared to leave the port. Turn your hand here to the mercenary guild I'll make a request as of today. "

I'm going through a splendidly nod to the strange emphasis on cleaning. No matter what you think, don't think too deeply. It looks like you're scared if you turn an empire's nobleman into an enemy, hahaha.

That's why we received the old escort rewards and signed a new escort contract, leaving us with the flagship of Count Daleinwald.

"Well, thank you again tomorrow."

Chris, who came with her brother's escort and sent her off, says so and bows with Pecori.

"Oh, leave it to me" "Yes, I'll do my best for Chris!" "I don't think I need to worry anymore"

I returned to Chris who came to see me off, and when I thought about leaving the place, I remembered that I was there and stopped my foot and returned my heel. Then reach for the inside of the jacket you are wearing and pull out the desired one. Well, I don't want to pick up a weapon, so don't set up a laser rifle. It seems to be stiff.

"Chris, this necklace"

What I took out of my jacket's inner pocket was the necklace I received as a substitute for escort fees when asked to escort by Chris, who had just woken up in the Cold Sleep Pod. It is a gem of elegant making decorated with beautiful lilac jewelry.

"Yes, please still have. My escort is not over yet, my knight."

Count Daleinwald's fleet looks pretty strong to me, and I don't think there is much more to come. Well, if Chris says that, should he keep it for a while?

"... Let's do it if the princess wants it." "Yes, please do it."

Chris smiles at my reply. Well, beautiful girl. Chris, dressed in a white dress like a noble daughter, was a noble princess no matter where he looked.

"So then again" "Yes, again"

I turn back on my heels again while being watched by Chris with a smile and her strictly brothers equipped with a laser rifle guarding her. Maintenance and replenishment are over, and it will be a dream day of 250,000 energy per day just waiting tomorrow. Now that Chris has moved to the Countess's flagship, Chris's uncle's hands have no reason to aim at us. It looks like I can extend my wings after a long absence.
