Legend

Take the streets of the Bestian Empire on a Dusker line towards the imperial capital.

Summer sunshine is also largely soothing, and Fu Ray squeaks as he is moving into autumn in earnest.

"Somebody don't come."

From the city at the end of their gaze, the surrounding escort knights react pictorially to the voice of Ray, who noticed several cavalry soldiers coming towards them.

Ray and Seto were the only ones who could see the city but still notice that someone was approaching it because it was still quite far away, but no one was already here to doubt the sharpness of its five senses.

The escort knight, who was near Ray, asks briefly.

"An enemy?

But to the words Ray leans his neck... eventually shakes his neck to the side.

"No, I think maybe not. If you're trying to do harm over here, you can't come that far in grandeur. Probably some kind of escort from the other side."

"It's... it's rare again"

A knight who asks if he is an enemy also raises a voice of surprise at Ray's words.

It has already been more than 10 days since I entered the Bestian Empire territory, but the lords of the territories I have been passing through have allowed a single line of Duskers to pass through the territory, but nothing like sending out escorts.

Of course some lords and deputies said they would send escorts when they went out to say hello, but Dusker himself refused to do so.

The reason for this is that I liked it and didn't intend to welcome the bugs in the lion.

It was an act because we understand what we think of the nobles and residents of the Bestian Empire...

"I'm sure you've already told the lords around here, haven't you?

"Oh. Suppose you've been putting out an escort after finding out about it... it could be a nasty opponent"

"Or have the city's deputies ever judged you on their own?

Ray snorts at the words of another knight who was nearby, wondering if there is indeed one too.

Even the smallest of the three forces, there is no substitute for Dusker being one of the nobles representing the Kingdom of Mireana.

For example, act at its own discretion to gain some benefit by ignoring the deterrence from above. It would not be strange to have such a person.

"Whatever your thoughts are, just listen to them directly and you'll soon find out."

By the time Ray shrugged, the knights were able to tell the story of the five knights on horseback who were heading their way down the street.

"I see it as the line of the Larks border uncle of the kingdom of Mireana... is there a difference?

One of the escort knights nods and opens his mouth to the words of a knight in his 40s who was in the lead among the five.

"That's right. And you?"

The middle-aged knight exhales a breath of relief, even as he is small and surprised to admit that it was lightly a line of Larks border uncles.

"I'm a city knight named Tanaro ahead of me. It's called Dwarub. Larks, I'm here to welcome Uncle Borderline."

"That helps. But I basically don't need the kind of escort. That's what you told the lords of the land?

Rather than blame it, the words of the knight who asked with a willingness to confirm.

Dwarub, who took it, nods all the time knowing.

"I am aware of that. But we're having some trouble in Tanaro right now."

The look on Dwarub's face telling him so didn't seem to hide anything in particular, and he seemed to show that he was in trouble from the bottom of his heart.

But when Dwarub says he looks so difficult, the knight of the escort opens his mouth even though he has a bad feeling.

"So, what's the trouble?

"Yes, it's... it's hard to say, but there seems to be a bunch of suspicious people coming from nowhere."

"... suspicious?

If there is such a person, why not capture him? That was the knight who asks out of the question, but Dwarub shakes his neck to the side with regret.

"Naturally I may be up to something odd, so I'm also looking into it here. But I can't get my tail out, and I can't find anyone who seems to be the mastermind in this matter... and I find my own impudence."

"... I see. What do you think?"

Chirali, and other knights who were listening to themselves, and those who ask Ray, who is spanning Seto's back.

"Normally, you think the disturbing elements who can't stand us entering the territory of the Bestian Empire are up to something? Or…"

The gaze of the knights on the spot gathers to Ray.

The Lord of Sight also included Dwarub and the four knights who were refraining behind it.

Dwarub not taking part in the Spring War, but nevertheless it is not difficult to get information about the person who decided the end of victory or defeat in the war.

And I'm on a griffon, and I'm acting with Uncle Larks Borderline.

It would be more unnatural not to assume that the person at the end of the line of sight is someone with a deep red alias, if the code so far fits.

"Is it me?"

Dwarub nods sorry to Ray's words as he is turned to gaze from his surroundings and shrugs his shoulders small.

"Yes, I believe it's either this way"

"... then is it dangerous to head straight to the city? What do we do?"

It's too dumb to reveal the night in the city where the nagging and enemies will be waiting. A knight laughs bitterly at Ray's words, which he asks with such thoughts.

I know what you're trying to say, but I just want to cloud the word a little more.

"Just give me a minute. I'll ask Master Dusker."

Tell him so briefly, knight heading for the carriage where Dusker and the Elks are riding.

When Ray glanced back at him, who was dropping off behind him, there was an interesting look on Ray while... more precisely the figure of Dwarub staring at Seto, where Ray was spanning.

Dwarub's men are just smiling bitterly that they have begun again towards their captain.

"Gru?"

I guess I decided that none of the curiosities were hostile to the gaze of Dwarub looking at me. What happened to Seto? and just lean his neck small and hoarse his throat.

……

But there was no wind noticing how Ceto was, and Dwarub was just staring at Ceto.

Ray was watching such a dwarloob as if even his suspicious opponent were to see it, but opens his mouth when he realizes Seto seems uncomfortable.

"Don't stare too much at me. Will you do it? Seto seems uncomfortable."

"... Huh!? I'm sorry about this. I saw Griffon for the first time in my life, so..."

The way a man in his 40s, who could be described as a magnificent man, was blushing lightly and thinly, there was something hard to say, even to lay.

"You're not afraid of Seto."

"Yeah. You wouldn't have a problem with that unless its Lord intentionally tried to make people attack you more than you are obedient, would you?

"Well, sure"

It's warcraft, not obedience to be precise, but the link between Ray and Seto is somewhat stiffer than obedience's.

Because he understands it, Ray nods back to Dwarub's words with a slightly better look on his face.

"Actually, when I was little, I wanted to get a job researching monsters."

"... heh"

From Ray's eyes, Dwarub had a fairly forged flesh, and there seemed to be no shortage in his ability as a knight.

No, you're in a position to lead the knight behind you, so I guess Ning Ro had more than enough talent over there.

(Wasn't what I wanted to do and what I could do together? Might as well say it's unfortunate for him/her)

To Ray whining inside like that, Dwarub smiles small and turns his gaze to Seto.

Stay put for a few minutes. Eventually the earlier knight returned from the carriage in which Dusker was riding.

But it's bittersweet to be floating in the face of a knight.

Ray could only see the look on his face and understand what choice had been made this time.... I made it.

"Lord Dwarub, and Ray. I've been informing Master Dusker about the city, but he hasn't changed his plans."

"... will definitely get you into trouble though?

Unlike when I was watching Seto, Dwarub turns his sharp gaze to the knight.

But the knight also takes Dwarub's gaze from the front without shifting his face away again.

"With all knowledge. If only you could take care of it the best you can. If anything happens, we can do something with this force."

"... ok. That's what I'll tell the deputy."

When I tell him that much, he smiles a little, not saying what was the harsh look on his face that was floating until a moment ago.

"It's hard to be noble."

"Yes, and Master Dusker has a special background."

"Let me hit my hands with all my might here. Well, it's quick, but we don't have time for this."

Tell him so briefly, then bow his head and leave the spot with his men's knights.

Ray, watching such an exchange, leans his neck unexpectedly and asks the knight.

"Why bother staying all over a dangerous city? They don't donate monsters. They work my magic tent, and they have Seto. Given that, you don't have to head to a dangerous place..."

"I would certainly think so if it were normal. But don't forget. Master Dusker is here on behalf of the neutrals of the Kingdom of Mireana. I mean, there's something about Fumiko."

"... I see"

I guess I'm not entirely convinced, but I still nod back when I can understand it, Ray.

If it's just me and Seto, I'm confident that I can do whatever opponent comes after me for sleep. But this time, it's not about protecting yourself, it's about protecting Dusker.

But I can only be convinced if they give me things like face and pride as a nobleman.

Even if it didn't seem stupid.

I wonder if that is what makes no sense when the existence of nobility throws away its glory and pride.

Most of all, it was because the axe face of the Thunder God, starting with the elk, was attached to the escort.

Ray has received many requests so far, but he has never received as many requests for escorts. Naturally it is also inexperienced, and I am anxious to have to escort myself.

"Well, there's you and Mr. Elk, and as long as you don't have much time, I think you'll be fine."

"Am I the only one who feels like the rest of this is going to happen?

Whilst whining like that, I won't cover anything I say here more than Dasker's decision has already been made.

Determined that he would have to work hard on his escort even though he was unfamiliar, Ray strokes the neck muscle of Seto that he is softly crossing.

"Seto may need to solve this on his own as much as he can, beyond what is likely to be a disturbance all over the city.... Sorry."

"Gru!"

To Ray's apology, it's okay! and a throat-beating ceto.

In fact, given Seto's abilities, I'm pretty sure he could do something about it even if he was somewhat in danger.

Still, as Ray, I was feeling guilty somewhere about leaving Seto, my own partner as well.

Whatever the policy is decided, Dusker one line resumes walking intact.

Heading up is Tanaro, ahead of sight.

"Well, please come through"

That's what the guard who finished the process tells him, and he bows his head small.

Ray guards his surroundings as he strokes a ceto hung with the devil's necklace.

Maybe they'll raid us as soon as we get into the city. I was thinking about that, but fortunately, he didn't need to worry about it.

But it's also true that some of the sights that can be directed from residents all over the city make you feel hatred and resentment.

(Perhaps the owner of this gaze is the disturbing molecule Dwarub was talking about)

Ray looks around insignificantly as he whines inside.

A few of the people who came into view were turning their hateful gaze at themselves.

Ray frowns slightly at the signs that even hate cloudy killings should be called.

They were in trouble where they didn't even hide it.

If you're that grand, there's definitely going to be a commotion.

I guess that was the same for the knights of the escort. On my face, I'm clear about the Knights of Larks Borderline Uncle, but on the inside, like whenever anything happens... that's what I'm ready to do right now, so that I can deal with any raid I've been making on this spot.

On the outside, the Rays headed to the inn, grinning and ready to respond whenever there was movement on the inside.
