Magical Device Craftsman Dahlia Won’t Hang Her Head Down Anymore
87. Tails and Starry Skies
It wasn't until it was all night that I got on the road.
The boarding carriage is the end time, so I decide to take a feed carriage home that can be used like a taxi. The downtown feed carriage store was crowded, so I decided to walk to the next compartment.
From time to time, you go down the road, confused with fluttering drunks, men walking shoulder-to-shoulder, and gorgeous dressed women.
Wolfe, who was walking and talking as usual, accidentally looks near Darya. Soon after, the words continued low.
"Darya, just listen to me. Probably tailed."
In Wolfe's hands, an anti-bugging magic guide emits the light of activation. I checked that in the corner of my sight and asked as I looked forward.
"Uh, is it a drink up or something?
"I don't know. I'd say it's probably just the two of us, so it's no problem, but I want to avoid any danger."
Wolfe turned this way and made a smile, but the minute I finished saying it, the signs changed.
A little bit, the distance may have been shrinking.
"I guess I should run away before I get into trouble"
"Excuse me, I'm slow on my feet. The guard post... in the opposite direction."
Only a few, but there are crowds. Even if they blackmail you here, someone will let the guard post know.
But if the Earl's Wolf was after him, he'd be on his feet to escape.
"I'm sorry, but will you give me permission to carry you?
"I'm heavy! I'm tall, too."
"I just turned the corner, I'm sorry"
In a hurry to reply, my vision slipped away.
Soon after I figure out the situation, Wolfe's back blurs like a streamline.
At the next moment, the starry sky was filling his sight.
"Huh?"
There were seconds until Wolf held me up and realized it was on the roof upstairs.
"Light, isn't it?"
I hear voices I'm used to hearing coming from my ears with unexpected proximity.
If I hurried and twisted my neck, I had a terribly fun man's smile.
While holding herself up trying to say something, Wolfe lowers her posture a little.
"Don't move, it's bad when you bite your tongue. 'Cause we're gonna keep moving, and we're gonna go down without people."
Close your mouth and snort.
I'm scared to fall at this height, and I'm not comfortable, so let me grab my jacket for now.
Wolfe makes a mild jump on the roof and roof while making sure there are no people there.
Later, he also traveled, checking the area, jumping from the roof to the fence of the veranda, to the road.
Dahlia is relieved that there was some floating sensation and shock of the fall, but finally her vision is lower.
"I'm sorry for all of a sudden. Doesn't that make you sick?
"Yeah, I'm surprised, but I'm fine. Wolfe is the one who's okay? Are you hurting your shoulders or your back or something?
"... fine"
Gently lowering Darya to the ground, she looks up at the roof that came down.
"No more signs, but let's keep an eye out for a while. Whatever the fight is, it's close by, because it's dangerous when you get hit with magic or throwing knives or something."
"Fighting is dangerous, too."
"You think I'm gonna lose in a fight to protect you?
"I don't think Wolf will lose"
Darya responded instantly.
Wolf with strong body strengthening magic and Heavenly Wolf (Scoll) bracelet. I don't think there are those who can fight and win first.
Still, the fight itself is still dangerous. I also want you to think about the possibility of people getting involved if you can't do it well.
But the young man in front of him looked round at himself who answered instantly.
"No, the... I told you, you'll never win if it's a long range attack magic fight of a magician"
"No, I don't think that's a fight anymore..."
Can a magician use long-range attack magic be called a fight in the first place?
It is usually used only for major exercises, wars, and the extermination of demons.
Wolf's use of long-range attack magic is unlikely unless he also becomes a real demon king.
Thinking of it as a guru, Wolfe exhaled shallow.
"Recently, there have been cases of people deliberately injuring their feet and stealing their belongings and running away. If the victim is injured, he will try to call a doctor or cleric first, and for the purpose of making it harder for the killer to be chased."
"That's terrible..."
What a despicable way there was.
Wang capital's security should be quite good, but it's hard to get rid of crime altogether. Special attention may be required in downtown areas.
"This time, I could be the cause. They say someone wants to know what they're doing, because there was something followed around before. I haven't had one lately, but maybe that's it again."
"No, I think it's for the most money, and never mind. I'm late, but thank you for your help."
"Because of the Heavenly Wolf (Scoll) bracelet, in the end, I also feel like a solution by Dahlia"
Wolfe smiled bitterly and softly offered his left hand.
"Because I know it's rude, but I'm still worried. Could you hold hands until the carriage store?
"Uh, please"
When the two of us joined hands, we walked a little early in a sparsely populated alley.
I'm sure the sky is a full star, but I can't afford to look up.
The starry sky I just saw on the roof was so beautiful.
One day, on the rooftops of Wolf and the tower, it might be fun to see the starry sky - think that far and Dahliya will fall asleep.
What am I dreaming of against him who is diligent to stay away from danger?
Now I just have to walk tight.
A few straight past the road, nothing happened and I could reach the street where the feed carriage was.
"Darya, are you going out tomorrow?
"No, I plan to work on the tower for a day"
"Just in case, can I use the safety check from the house tomorrow morning? I wish I was off, because there's joint practice in the Knights."
"Yeah, please"
Tell Wolfe I'm too worried here, but I probably don't feel like pulling it off. This time, I honestly decided to take it.
It must be because of my constant vigilance, it feels like that sign gave me a terrible blow.
"If you have something to shop for or enter, don't hesitate to tell the user. I guess I should have the carriage picked up in front of the tower the day after tomorrow. Sometimes the Chamber of Commerce, just in case."
"Okay. I'll make sure you book a carriage for a while to get in and out."
With an honest nod to himself, Wolfe turned a neat smile.
Wolf was strengthening his body to see the sound around him, keeping his gait pace in line with Dahlia's early feet.
It hurts my ears to hear me out, but I'm going to keep going until I get in the carriage.
When I was out of the store and walking around talking, I felt something caught in the rear.
It's not like killing, but it could be a sign for me and Darya - the moment I seemed like it, I was putting on physical strengthening.
Wolfe can also raise 'hearing' somewhat with physical enhancement. Without looking back, I checked my footsteps, changing the speed of walking several times.
There are two footsteps I think I'm following.
Given that the two of them weren't talking at all, it's unlikely to be extortion or for Dahliya purposes that are women.
Along the way, there was a heavy metal noise and I thought it was whether I had a dagger or whether I was planting an iron plate under my sleeve.
I'm sorry for Darya, but when I thought about safety and turned the corner, I held her up and flew to the roof.
I was pretty prepared to be pissed off, but it's an emergency, so he could flush it. Honestly, I'm relieved.
Luckily, they don't seem to be chasing me anymore, but I'm concerned about what reason they were tailing me.
Most likely, I don't like the resentment caused by my female relationship at all.
I don't like myself any more when I say I'm scaring Darya, but I don't have the power to solve it right away.
The only salvation was the soft warmth in his own hands.
