Master’s Smile

Episode 94: In the Carriage

A royal castle is the most important building with a king who is the supreme power of the kingdom.

Naturally, getting in there is not allowed for the general public.

On the contrary, even kingdom knights are only allowed to be near those who have been recognised by the king or princes who have the right to inherit the throne.

Perhaps that is only natural because it is a place where a number of important figures at summit level will gather to run the kingdom's state.

I can't possibly have anything to do with this kind of royal castle, the guild master of the Dark Alliance "Army of Salvation (Yerkchilla)".

If I said I wanted to go in, I'd rather be caught and executed easily.

That's me...

"You see it. That's the royal castle the kingdom is proud of."

In front of me, a woman who brags about it.

The crisp face looks somewhat like Reese's.

The strength of the will was everywhere from the looks of it, and I would have easily been convinced if she had been told she was a knight in the kingdom.

In fact, he was an even more amazing person...

More than that, are you sure I can get into the royal castle?

I am the master of the Dark Alliance, the Army of Salvation (Yelktila), an enemy of the Unholy Heaven for the Kingdom.

... I don't even have to think about it, though I don't think so.

"Huh. Sure, if you'd been selling yourself to me, I wouldn't have brought you to the royal castle like this. It was Ritter who recommended you to me."

That's what I said, and she saw someone sitting next to me.

In its eyes, there was a strong colour of trust.

The girl who takes it - Ritter was looking up at the void Bo all the way through such a gaze.

He cuts off dark hair around his shoulders. Sure, Bob Cut... Was it?

Eyes do not dwell on any emotions and are often colorless.

I have a child in my guild with a thin emotional expression called Schwart, but Ritter doesn't put his emotions on the table by circling them.

In the case of Schwart, he has firm emotions but suppresses them with reason.

Conversely, in the case of Ritter, I think the emotion itself is very thin.

Still, I guess it's not intimidating because of her superior appearance.

This is my, proud daughter.

Litter, a girl wearing a simple knight's armor, was shaking herself by the carriage movement beside me.

... Well, you trust Litter very much.

"Absolutely. He's one of my few friends, my strongest knight."

The woman smiled nicholly and appreciated the litter highly.

Yeah, I'm so happy about that.

I am glad that Litter is praised, as if I were praised.

... It's just a matter of this child, whom women strongly trust, being a member of the Dark Alliance "Army of Salvation (Yerkchilla)", of which I am (for once) the head.

...... the problem is too big!

Or how could Litter be trusted so far by this woman in a pretty amazing position?

…………

When I turn my gaze on the litter, the eyes that were staring into the void capture my eyes.

Her eyes were terribly pure and reflected my face like a beautiful mirror.

…………

He didn't seem to know how I was watching, he was a litter with his neck tilted, but he slapped his hand with a pong to convince me of something.

And it creeps even further into my body, creating an atmosphere where I have no choice for some reason.

In the first place, me and Ritter were totally snuggled up in a narrow carriage that brought people closer together.

... the soft ones are hitting me a lot.

"... you seem close. Don't get a little jealous if you're too close."

The woman sitting in front of me has said that with a smile.

If that's a real smile, it feels like an adult woman making fun of the pattern between me and Ritter, but I'm scared because my eyes are serious.

The jealousy was, of course, directed at me taking the litter.

... you don't take your friends and execute them or anything, do you?

"Master, what's wrong? Smile, it's just a little pulled."

It's faceless, but Ritter looks up at me, seeping worry at the edge of the word.

I'm so glad you're worried, but your friend is the cause...

Nevertheless, it is also true that we cannot disturb a woman who is a friend of Ritter's.

My guild members are somewhat conservative... a lot of kids don't make friends outside the guild. I'm not in a position to say. [M]

These days, Laradi had gotten a friend named Mahoe, and Sorgros would probably talk to Lucille and Lucica.

In that, you can't just treat her like a friend about a litter that seems difficult to make friends with.

"... Nevertheless, Master to Ritter... who the hell are you called Master?

Yes, this is also a troublesome thing that happened to Litter purely.

He told me in public that he didn't want me to be called the master, and Litter nodded, but shortly afterwards he called me the master in front of a woman.

... True, it's pure, the litter.

When I said it in front of a woman, it was cold sweat, but I managed to delude myself into being the master of Ritter's swordsmanship.

You're definitely stronger than me, Ritter.

"It's about time."

When I was returning a vague grin on a woman's question, she gave up her reply and looked out the window.

When I looked at Chirali, I was a little further away from the city and it was a beautiful sight.

When I was hurting my stomach wondering if the royal castle was close, I heard a very loud noise from the outside.

"The First Princess of the Kingdom, Lady Nina Evan has arrived!!

... I recognise that the woman sitting in front of me is in a very high position.

True, how did you build a friendship with the First Princess of the Kingdom, Litter...

…………

Even with my gaze, Litter just leaned his neck.
